Chapter 841 Railway Station


    So the battles at No. 3 Heights and Milloway City went very smoothly.


    In the direction of the No. 3 hignd, the main task of the 1st Airborne Regiment is to upy the hignd for garrison and block the road near the hignd with firepower.


    This task is a standard field subject. In fact, it is the work of the infantry, but the infantry cannot parachute to this position like the airborne troops.


    In addition, the Germans used an Italian battalion to garrison this No. 3 hignd. To be precise, it could not be garrisoned, but the Italian battalion was assigned here to wipe out the guerris... The Soviet guerris always drilled into the jungle and hignds. Hignd No. 3 happened to be a good ce for guerris.


    The reason why guerris like it is because it has deep forests and many trees on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is close to roads and railways, so it cane out of the forest from time to time to attack the enemy.


    The task of clearing out the guerris is usually done by the German special operations team, but after the upation of Milovey, there are so many ces to be cleared that the special operations team is not enough. In desperation, the Italian battalion can only be transferred to Height No. 3.


    Commanding this Italian battalion is Major Camillo...Italian officers generally have high ranks.


    Major Camillo and his battalion lived happily on Height 3, because they belonged to the Italian Expeditionary Force. It might not be possible to fight the Soviets face to face on the battlefield, but it was more than enough to deal with the guerris.


    But Major Camillo didn''t want toplete the task so quickly.


    He said to the adjutant: "If the mission ispleted, what will they send us to do? To transport supplies, or to go to the battlefield?"


    Then the adjutant understood.


    Neither is a good choice.


    Transport supplies, then you must always be prepared to be attacked by guerris, because there will always be someone attacking the supply convoy, and sometimes it will be bombed by Russian nes.


    Not to mention going to the battlefield.


    So, of course, it is much safer and morefortable to "pretend to clear up" on No. 3 Heights.


    Therefore, there was always hostility on the No. 3 Heights, and it was impossible to eradicate the weeds. The sound of guns and guns was sometimes very intense. The Germans passing by the road saluted the Italians on the No. 3 Heights from time to time to express their gratitude.


    What the Germans didn’t know was that those were actually Italian soldiers hunting game in the forest. Every day they gathered the game they caught and grilled it, and then enjoyed their dinner leisurely with wine while wearing a napkin.


    Until this night, when they were telling jokes and grilling food around the campfire as usual, there was a sound of airne motors in the sky.


    "Enemy ne, put out the fire!" Camilo shouted.


    The soldiers moved quickly. They took out their engineering shovels and extinguished the bonfire with a few strokes... It is not umon for Russian nes to appear at night.


    Major Camillo thought it was a Russian bomber, the kind that dropped bombs indiscriminately without a target.


    But Major Camillo soon discovered that he was wrong... Blossoming white round parachutes emerged from the sky, and they wobbled down.


    Major Camillo and the adjutant looked at each other, and then immediately shouted: "Organize the defense, enemy paratroopers!"


    But the so-called organized defense is actually hiding in the trenches, setting up guns, and then discussing how to surrender.


    "I hope their goal is not here!" Major Camillo said.


    "What if their target is here?" the adjutant asked.


    "If so..." Major Camillo replied: "There are too many of them, and there is nothing we can do!"


    This is indeed a good excuse.


    In the direction of the city of Milloway, the 291st Infantry Regiment of the German Army sessfully reinforced the train station and organized a defense.


    The railway station is a ce that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. This is not only because the nearby terrain is open and there is no building for the enemy''s cover for a long period of time, but also because the German army pulled down the barbed wire fence and even Walls and machine gun forts were also built... In fact, these walls and machine gun forts were left by the Soviet army. When the German army began to counterattack from Kharkov, the Soviet army retreated so quickly that they had no time to blow up these facilities. destroy.


    The regiment wasmanded by Major Vincent. After deploying his troops, he looked at his watch and wondered why the enemy hadn''t moved yet... It''s been two hours since the Russiansunched the airborne attack. It was in vain for them to rush for reinforcements. Here, I was worried about whether it was urgent, but now there is still time left.


    A few German soldiers next to them couldn''t help but joked: "Are the Russians hung on trees by parachutes?"


    "No, I think they''re hanging on a pole!"


    Then theyughed.


    This is indeed a bit unimaginable for the Germans, because their paratroopers have always moved quickly, and the airborne is urate and fast. They attack the target almost as soon as theynd, before the enemy can react. Some ssic battles even Itnded very urately on the enemy''s fortress, and it was silent, and the enemies in the fortress didn''t even realize that the enemy had entered before they shot.


    However, the Russian paratroopers did not attack after two hours.


    Major Vincent called Colonel Jason of the Special Operations Team.


    "Do you know where they are, Colonel?" Major Vincent asked.


    "Are you kidding me?" Colonel Jason replied, "They''re everywhere, Major!"


    "Are you talking about the guerris or the paratroopers, Colonel?" Vincent asked.


    "Who can tell the difference?" Colonel Jason said, "Why don''t youe here to see?!"


    Speaking of Colonel Jason, he hung up the phone with a "bang".


    The war was indeed as Colonel Jason said, the entire Miloway was full of enemies, and it was hard to tell whether it was guerris or airborne troops.


    In fact, there are many civilians among them... The transport nes dropped not only airborne troops, but also many rifles. They used these rifles to equip a group of civilians in the first ce.


    However, the whole city was in chaos, only the train station was very quiet. asionally, a few guerris with guns would rush here, but they disappeared soon after being shot dead.


    Vincent waited for a while, and then said to himself: "This is not a good phenomenon, I feel that we are surrounded!"


    This was Shulka''s idea.


    He knew that the airborne troops could not stop the German reinforcements at the railway station... The Soviet airborne troops were too slow, it took twenty minutes to get in touch with themand, and it took about an hour to assemble and rush to Miloway.


    If the attack on the train station wasunched from the beginning, the more than 1,000 airborne troops would probably be wiped out by the German defenders in a few charges.


    So, Shulka suggested not to attack the train station for the time being, although their goal is the train station.
