Soldier David, quickly half-squatting on the ground, from the ground, took down the mortar he was carrying, holding the barrel in his left hand and the bottom plate below in his right hand.

This posture is almost no different from the grenadier of the island nation.

Yes, this kind of thing, it's a bit too much to call it a mortar, in fact, it's just a grenadier.

This is a 2-inch gun, if converted to the metric system, it is 51 mm, it can be found, the caliber is very small, easy to carry, in the establishment of the British army, this mortar has one in the command of each platoon, and three in each company below, so to speak, in the absence of heavy weapons in the troops, this mortar is the main weapon for their fortification.

In terms of range and ammunition power, it is inferior to the French 60mm mortar, and compared with the Japanese grenadier, the range is slightly larger, the accuracy is slightly higher, especially with simple sights, which is easy for novices to master.

Yes, this mortar, and improvised sights.

At this time, after David put the mortar in place, he began to tinker on the turntable below, and now, the distance is four hundred meters, which is almost the limit of his own range, so the highest elevation angle must be used.

Then, there was the adjustment of the angle, this mortar, in the chassis and in the middle, there were two angle rulers, which were used for fine adjustment, and soon, he completed the preparation.

"Put!" He shouted loudly.

The assistant on the side, stuffed the shells of the 2-inch mortar through the muzzle, and let go.

"Bang!" When the shell fell to the bottom, it was fired below, the gunpowder ignited, and by its own power, the shell flew out of the muzzle.

David stared intently at the cannonball he fired, this first shot may not be accurate, he needs to correct it by observing the landing point, and the second time will definitely be more accurate than the first time.

"Boom!" Sure enough, the shell exploded a few meters away from the opponent's machine gun, three close spots to the right!

He adjusted nervously, and then he felt his head, as if he had been hit by something, and his neck seemed to be unable to withstand such a powerful impact.

Then, his world was dark, and before the darkness, there was no excruciating pain, only numbness.

"David!" The loader next to him shouted.

A bullet accurately hit David in the head, and after the loader finished shouting, he followed, and the same shot was in the head.

On the other side, there are snipers!

The people behind did not hesitate, immediately stepped forward, took over the mortar, and continued the operation.

Even if there are snipers on the opposite side, they need to fight, and only by defeating the enemy on the opposite side can they have any hope of victory!

"Da-da-da-da." Here, the British machine guns also opened fire fiercely, suppressing the opposite side, just an infantry battalion, and their own infantry division, pressing all the armies, will definitely be able to rush over!

No matter how much firepower the opponent has, in short, the number of opponents is limited!

Before the German reinforcements arrived, Calais was to be dealt with, firmly held here, and created an opportunity for the retreat of the expeditionary force!

"Boom!" Mortars, continuing to fire at the opposing side, this time, accurately hit one of the opponent's machine-gun fire points!

There was a burst of cheers from here, but just two seconds after the cheers, the machine guns on the opposite side began to sound again.

Apparently, at this time, the other side also went crazy, the machine gunner died, and the top of the back!

The machine gun fire on this side is suppressed, and the machine gun on the opposite side continues to fire!

It would be unwise to continue the charge without suppressing the opponent's machine guns, but now, Montgomery has no other choice, the most precious thing is time!

"In five minutes, organize the second round of charge!" Montgomery said.

Looking at the convoy around him, he remembered an idea: "Put our car, cover it with a quilt, pour water, and rush over!" ”

After more than ten minutes of fighting, it seems that the other party has no heavy firepower, and now, as long as he has a tank, he can rush up, but unfortunately there is not, so he can only think of other ways.

For example, the current car can still make a temporary cameo, but he has no steel plate to increase protection, so he has to use soil methods.

Montgomery is quite good at using his brain.

The quilt is added with water, and the bulletproof effect is still okay.

"Yes." A brigade commander beside him immediately went to give orders.

Continuing to hold the binoculars, Montgomery once again discovered a problem, the other party is short of manpower, why do he have to use his brains on this side of the bridge? On the canal next to it, you can still find a way, such as building a bridge by hand!

The easiest, drive the car down, it's the bridge!

Anyway, these cars are probably not going back to the UK, so instead of leaving them to the Germans, it is better to use them yourself!

Can't wait any longer, immediately give the order and organize a new attack! The Germans just set up a defense on the bridge on this side, and the whole city of Calais is wide!

"Divisional commander, divisional commander, it's not good!" At this moment, the adjutant hurriedly ran over.

Oh no? What's the bad news? The worst news is that you won't be able to attack the city in time. Aren't you working on it now?

"Division commander, look to the left, look at our left flank!"

They had come from the right, all the way, and now, to their left, on the horizon, there were clouds of black smoke.

What is that?

There was some fog in the early morning, and they couldn't see too far, but just by looking at the black smoke, they could guess something.

Those black smoke are the exhaust gases of the combustion of the engine, because the other party is driving savagely, so it will constantly emit black smoke, and judging from the scale of the black smoke, the other party is definitely a strong force.

On your own? The French Southern Legion came to the rescue? Stop dreaming, that's impossible.

Since it is not a French legion, it must be the Germans who are coming, and there are all over the mountains, not only along the road, but also in the field at high speed, which means that there must be tanks not only in cars!

Almost instantly, Montgomery judged that it was the German armored forces that had come!

In repeated battles, the armored forces of the Germans were mythologized that they were invincible.

Montgomery knew that any unit was flawed, and no matter how powerful the German tanks were, if they pressed the anti-tank mines, they had to blow up the tracks and could not move forward, and with the mines, they could block the other side.

Moreover, the military-industrial scientific researchers in the rear must be tirelessly studying the solution, and the tanks of the Germans are not indestructible.

But now, he lacks anti-tank mines, and even less time for laying mines, and the Germans are rushing at high speed, on their own, what to do?

Stay here to resist and wait for your main forces to arrive for reinforcements? Still is?
