In fact, there is no need to think about this at all. They must be greeted by bullets and artillery shells on the battlefield.

The question is how dense and prepared these bullets and shells are.

The situation made Major General Jaton, the commander of the 4th Division of the United States, ecstatic. They were responsible for the landing of "Utah Beach".

"Utah Beach" is a 15-kilometer-long beach in the eastern part of the Brittany Peninsula. The beach itself is a small yellow sand wave with many streams across. The Germans built a barrier belt of 270 to 360 meters on the beach, and then it was the concrete barrier built by the German army.

The landing of "Utah Beach" is obviously very important, because once the 4th Infantry Division of the United States successfully landed here, it can immediately move westward to cut off the German troops stationed in the Brittany Peninsula... As mentioned before, the Brittany Peninsula is like a rhino horn extending into the Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by the sea on three sides and connected to the European continent.

But because of this, the US military expects that the 4th Infantry Division of the US will be blocked by the powerful German firepower when landing.

The reason is very simple. When the US 4th Infantry Division landed, it would naturally be in the German firepower angle and was attacked by German troops from the French coast and the Brittany Peninsula.

But this is not the case.

They were only scattered resistance from the German army. Compared with other places, "Utah Beach" was simply a quiet beach. There were only obstacles and minefields that were blown upside down in front of the 4th Infantry Division of the United States.

Major General Jaton reported to Eisenhower: "I simply don't believe that all this is true. The enemy either suffered heavy casualties under our bombing, or was scared and paralyzed!"

Major General Jaton guessed correctly. The 715th German coastal defense division stationed at Utah Beach. Although most of them are Germans, most of them are older and without combat experience, and their combat quality is generally poor.

At this time, they were already paralyzed by the deafening artillery fire of the Allied forces and kept huddling in the bunker and did not dare to move.

Human fear is sometimes a strange thing, it can force people to make choices that seem stupid to escape reality.

For example, now, the German soldiers of the 715th Coast Defense Division actually understand one thing. There is no hope for continuing to shrink like this. The obstacles in front of the beach will not help them drive away the enemy. They can only survive if they rise up and resist. Otherwise... the enemy will quickly clear the obstacles and mines, and then rush to their fortifications to stuff grenades and explosives into them.

But the officers and soldiers of the 715th Coast Defense Division just dare not do this.

They saw several tanks appearing in the waves and spitting out flames and firing shells. They couldn't help but frightened their feet to become weak and disobedient. Even if some people muster up the courage to shoot a few shuttles of bullets and shells at the beach, they would soon become "successful birds" and be suppressed by the US firepower.

It's like telling a German soldier in another way... it's right not to shoot or shoot.

A considerable number of German soldiers were ready to surrender when the Allies came up.

This made the US military's attack on "Utah Beach" the most smooth... On the 15-kilometer beach, the 4th Division of the US cleared obstacles or could be said to be an attack for more than an hour, and basically reached the "Atlantic Barrier" after only 197 people. It even began to accept prisoners of war and bunkers on the "Atlantic Barrier".

This was something Rommel and even Qin Chuan had never expected.

Although they did not place their hope on the coastal defense division at all... To a certain extent, the coastal defense division was just cannon fodder, which was placed on the front line to deal with the Allied bombings.

But they did not expect that the German army would face the enemy and dare not shoot or fire at the enemy in the complete bunker fortifications, so that the US military would be in danger of breaking through the "Atlantic Barrier" and surrounding the Brittany Peninsula in just over an hour.

"These bastards!" Rommel was so angry when he received the report: "Their division commander was reporting to me a few minutes ago that they were trying their best to resist the Allied attack!"

This is obviously a lie. The commander of the 715th Coast Defense Division obviously lost control of the troops at the moment the Allied landed. For some reason... he was worried that he would be punished for fear of war, and some more, the commander of the Dehai Defense Division also planned to surrender to the Allied forces, so he used the trick of lying about military information to delay Rommel.

Until a correspondent soldier was surprised to find that the US military had appeared in front of the fortress, the 715th coastal defense department basically did not resist, even if it was just symbolic.

Rommel turned his gaze to the rear of the defensive map.

The 21st Armored Division lurked behind the Brittany Peninsula... After the 21st Armored Division arrived at the front line, it mounted its assembly in Paris at the fastest speed and lurked to the Brittany Peninsula.

Time was so tight that the Allies launched an attack on the third day.

So he didn't think much about it and called the 21st Armored Division Command with just one call.

"Let's launch a counterattack against the Allies who landed in the Brittany Peninsula immediately!" Rommel ordered: "Turn them back to the sea!"

"Yes, General!" General Streck responded, and then issued the order via radio.

Qin Chuan is also a member of the offensive army.

This is mainly because the time was too short, and Rommel was unable to find a well-trained infantryman who could cooperate perfectly with the armored forces... In the end, he had to return the 1st Infantry Regiment to build so that the 21st Armored Division could exert its maximum combat effectiveness as much as possible.

At this time, the 21st Armored Division was a little different from the 21st Armored Division on the Eastern Front... They obtained 30 "Leopard" tanks and 15 "Tiger" tanks in this dress-up.

After all, this is France. Compared with the Soviet Union, France's advantage is that it is shorter to get supplies more easily... Of course, this is just from a certain point of view, because the supply lines have been bombed by Allied forces, so supply is still not easy.

"We should wait!" Qin Chuan suggested to General Strek when he received the order.

"Wait a little longer?" said General Streck. "No, we can't wait any longer. If we wait, the Americans will soon occupy the fortifications and capture our coastal defense divisions!"

"I think we will attack until then!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Why?" General Streck asked in confusion.

"Because then it will be the time when Americans are least vigilant!" Qin Chuan replied: "At the same time, there will be a large number of German prisoners mingling in the US army. It is difficult for them to control, and it is difficult for American pilots to distinguish between enemies and us!"

General Strek was stunned when he heard this... What Qin Chuan said did make sense, but he completely ignored the coastal defense division.
