Calais, the German Army against the British Home Combat Command. Even though it's late at night, but von? Marshal Falkenhein still did not rest. He is already getting older, and his health is getting worse and worse. In order to stay up late, he even had to make a pot of coffee for the adjutant, and if he couldn't hold it, he drank a cup to refresh himself.

"How's the situation at the front?" Feng? Marshal Falkenhein asked.

"Your Excellency, the battle at the front is fierce. The British attacked our line as if they were not going to die. The artillery of the British was also firing heavily in less than the losses, which caused very heavy losses on our front-line troops. The adjutant reported.

"Will the front line hold out?" Feng? Field Marshal Falkenhain frowned. He knew that this time the British attack must have cost a bloody investment. In order to drive the German army into the sea, the British invested the real main force, and in this case, if the German army wants to hold on, I am afraid that it will have to pay a greater price.

"Marshal, according to reports from the front, although our losses are constantly rising. But in general, we inflicted more damage on the British. It should be able to hold on! The adjutant said.

Feng? Marshal Falkenhein nodded, and the heart that had been hanging was finally put back into his stomach.

"It's only a few hours until dawn. Let the troops on the front line hold on, and as soon as the day dawns, they will be supported by more powerful firepower. When the time comes, the Navy and Army Air Corps will provide them with more support. Other units of the army will also continue to land. "Feng? Marshal Falkenhein said.

"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal!" The adjutant nodded.

"Send a telegram to the Navy and Army Air Corps as well, so that they are ready. As soon as it was dawn, I would have liked to get the news that they had dropped shells and bombs on the heads of the British. "Feng? Field Marshal Falkenhein continued. 、

"All right, Your Excellency Marshal, I will contact the Navy and Army Air Forces at once!" The adjutant immediately went to send a telegram.

Although the battle was very tragic, on the whole, it was very beneficial to the German army. On the defensive side, they not only received strong fire support, but also were able to reduce their own casualties with the help of fortifications. This resulted in much fewer casualties among the Germans than the British.

"Hold on, it's still a few hours before dawn. When the time comes, we will have more support. The British will pay a price they can't afford for this! "The German officers on the front line kept cheering for the soldiers.

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers replied one after another. They all knew that tonight was going to be the hardest. As long as they hold out until dawn, they will win. At that time, the strong firepower from the sea and air will inflict great casualties on the British, and they will be able to easily resist the British attack, and even launch a counterattack to further expand their beachhead.

"Da Da Da!" On the German position, a general-purpose machine gun was firing frantically, relying on intensive firepower, this general-purpose machine gun and rifles in the hands of several infantrymen made this section of the defense line more than 20 meters long, resisting the attack of a large number of British troops. The corpses left by the British in front of this section of the line have exceeded a hundred. However, the British offensive continued. They continued to try to launch an offensive in an attempt to tear apart the German defenses.

"Damn, if we weren't able to destroy that machine gun of the Germans, we wouldn't have been able to tear through their lines at all!" A British captain officer said. His company was about to be crippled.

"What about mortars? How many more mortars do we have? A second lieutenant platoon commander asked.

"It's the last one, and the others were lost in the previous battle." Said the captain officer.

"Sir, try again! Destroy the machine guns of the British with mortars, and then immediately attack, tearing through their lines in one fell swoop. As long as we can tear a hole in their defense, we will be able to break through their defense in one fell swoop! The second lieutenant platoon commander suggested.

"Alright, let's do it!" The captain nodded.

The British mortars were quickly erected, and two minutes later the shelling of the German heavy machine guns began.

"Boom!"

Perhaps it was the luck of the British that this shell accurately hit the German general-purpose machine gun. After the shell exploded, the universal machine gun was already blown up. The machine gunner was also killed on the spot, but the co-shooter had better luck, but the shrapnel grazed a little skin.

However, after losing the fire suppression of this general-purpose machine gun, the British army, which had been suppressed, immediately began a fierce attack. They quickly broke through the German line, and the German troops on this line were quickly overwhelmed by the influx of British soldiers.

"Quick! Fast! The Germans' line of defense has already been broken through by us. Expand the results of the battle and tear their defenses through once and for all! The commander of the British front shouted excitedly.

More and more British soldiers, finding that this position had been breached, rushed here in an attempt to tear through the German defenses.

And the Germans, who were on the defensive, also found this.

"2nd Regiment, reinforcements at once. Either way, resist the British! "Alexander? Lieutenant General Linsingen ordered with red eyes.

"Yes, General!" The 1st Regiment of the 2nd Marine Division immediately rushed to reinforcements.

After a daytime battle, the 1st Marine Division suffered considerable losses. So, after the arrival of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Divisions of the Army, the defense was handed over to them. The 1st Marine Division, on the other hand, was used as a reserve.

The addition of thousands of new forces suddenly re-established this defensive line that had seemed shaky. Although, in some battles more fierce white-knuckle battles. However, they were all pressed back by the strong combat power of the German army.

In particular, some amphibious tanks also rushed to help in the battle, which gave the British army a fatal blow. Despite operating at night, the Marine Corps' amphibious tank has many inconvenient uses. However, the British troops who launched the night attack did not carry decent anti-tank weapons, which made them helpless in the face of these German tanks, and they were massacred by the tank's machine guns, and even directly crushed to pieces by the tank's tracks. Under such circumstances, there is no doubt that the British troops were driven out of their positions.

After a fierce battle, the British troops who attacked the German positions were either killed or driven out of the German positions.
