With a "bang!", Qin Chuan shot and killed a tank captain who poked his head out of the "Sheerman" tank.

The tank commander may have thought that the sky was not yet bright, and the Germans would not notice him, coupled with the smoke from the front line and the dust and mist caused by the bombing.

So driven by curiosity, he opened the tank hatch and poked his head out and carefully observed the opposite side with a telescope... Of course, this cannot be said to be curious, because poor vision means that it is difficult for the tank to observe the enemy's firepower point. He also hopes to better command the tank to suppress the German firepower to cover the US soldiers' crossing.

But Qin Chuan's bullet ended his mission, and at the same time made the US tank captain dare not try to do this... The US tank communication is very good. After a captain was shot dead, other tank crews immediately notified other tanks via walkie-talkie:

"Fuck, the lieutenant fell down and was killed by the sniper!"

"The Germans have snipers, they have snipers!"

"Don't stick your head out of the tank, be careful, don't stick your head out of the tank!"

...

Americans' combat is always accompanied by nervous calls and warnings, although sometimes it is just a trivial matter... This makes them feel that other units are fighting together in battle, which is also a way to release pressure and eliminate tension.

"Bang!" Another shot.

The target of the gun is not a man, but a rubber boat.

The US military driving this rubber boat seemed to have been trained, and they knew how to avoid enemy shooting in the water... They did not try to keep a straight line in the water like other kayaks or assault boats.

Most people are accustomed to walking straight lines, which makes them need to add a little more force to offset the flow rate of the river, so the speed of progress is naturally slow.

The rubber boat was laid down from the upstream, and the distance was obviously calculated... This calculation is actually very easy. You only need to know the speed of the water flow and then estimate the speed of the rubber boat moving forward. Make a simple distance and convert the speed to time to find out where to put it down from the upstream.

Simply put, they go with the flow and all their strength is used to move forward.

This will not only minimize the time to cross the river, but also faster rubber boats and are difficult to aim at the slashes relative to the Germans... This gives them a better chance to land.

But Qin Chuan's bullet made them desperate. The rubber boat was punched in a pair of ways, and the air soon leaked out of the bullet hole. Then the rubber boat became more and more difficult. In the end, the American soldiers on it had to abandon the ship and jump into the river.

"Bang!" The shot knocked down a correspondent, who was lying down on the assault boat and shouting loudly.

The next second, Qin Chuan's bullets destroyed him along with the phone... As a quasi-modern unit, what the US military is most worried about is not that the officers were shot dead, and the officers were shot dead and then commanded; nor that the medical staff were shot dead. They all knew that medical staff were actually more of a kind of comfort, and a minor injury first aid kit could be solved. If the medical staff was injured, it would be difficult to survive on the battlefield.

What they are most worried about is that the communication equipment is destroyed and cannot contact their superiors, because then they will wonder whether the superiors should order them to retreat at this time, but they are still charging meaninglessly because they cannot contact their superiors. This will naturally affect morale.

However, the US military of the 3rd Army is still somewhat different from other US military.

If it were other US troops, they should have retreated at this time, but they still insisted on fighting. Although rows of bullets drove the forced ferry into a river, and although shells and shells overturned the assault boats or rubber boats they were riding on, and even shattered the people and ships, they still rushed towards the river one after another.

It was not until the five Sherman tanks were destroyed by the me63 that the US military retreated like a tide, leaving only a bright red and corpse in the river and a few tank wreckage on the other side that were smoking and fired.

The German soldiers were stunned for a while, and then they laughed inexplicably.

Qin Chuan could understand their actions... People who had never fought a war tasted the joy and excitement of victory for the first time, and that sense of pride and satisfaction were beyond the reach of outsiders.

But Qin Chuan also knew that as long as they fought a few more battles, they would soon become numb about it.

"Is that what they said is the 'controllable rocket'?" At some point, Colonel Becker lay beside Qin Chuan: "I mean, the thing to destroy American tanks!"

"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied: "It's called 'me63'!"

Since this thing is still confidential in the German army, its nickname is actually taken by the Soviets... "Controllable Rocket".

"Excellent thing!" said Colonel Becker. "With it, American tanks are targets for us!"

Qin Chuan didn't say anything. If there were enough "me63", it would be true, but Qin Chuan's first battalion carried only fifty "me63s". Nineteen of them were killed just now.

Patton on the other side was also shocked by this.

Because according to his intelligence, there is almost nothing in Metz Fortress that can deal with the US "Sheerman" tanks, which is also one of the reasons why Patton dares to use the infantry division to force the crossing... The infantry division's tanks line up on the river bank, constantly exerting precise firepower to the German army to suppress and cover the infantry to cross the river. This itself poses a sufficient threat to the Big and Small Solsey Island, so his plan to intersperse Xiangbier Island can be successful.

But now, the German army can easily destroy the Sherman tanks on the other side of the river.

"What's going on?" said Patton. "They actually have 'controllable rockets'? I heard that only the 1st Infantry Regiment can use it at present. Does this mean the 1st Infantry Regiment is in Fortress Metz?"

"Maybe they equipped the 'controllable rockets' with the military academy in Metz!" said the staff officer: "You know, the military academy will learn to use these new equipment."

Patton thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I think the 1st Infantry Regiment is in Fortress Metz!"

Patton held the cigar in his mouth and stared at the telegram in his hand... It read: "According to statistics, the enemy fired 19 'controllable rockets', and we had 9 tanks destroyed in total!"
