The roar of the explosion sounded in my ears, and every second someone fell down. The comrade who was still talking to himself fell into the pool of blood in the next second.
And he himself was overturned on the ground by the shock wave emitted by the shells, and his ears had no sound except for the hum of hum.
‘No one can go back alive. ’All thoughts rise in my heart.
This made them feel terrified, but it also aroused another emotion that was born out of despair, the struggle of the beast.
Allied forces without any retreat can only find a ray of vitality in the mortal solution by advancing.
This kind of thinking only exists for a second, and it becomes their belief at the moment, because there is no time for them to think seriously about what they should do.
The sturdy bunkers and trenches became the nightmares of the Allied forces, and the Germans hiding in them slaughtered the enemies on the beach like a target.
Yes, it was a massacre, the first wave of attacking troops on Omaha Beach, with a casualty rate of 90%.
Then comes the second wave, the third wave...
Battlefield reporters shuttled across the battlefield, carefully avoiding the attacked area and filming the tragic situation on the beach.
A soldier was shot in the waist by a bullet from a machine gun, his legs stood upright, half of his body was torn at a 45-degree angle, and fell down, and the stomach and intestines flowed all over...
The dexterous soldiers made rapid advances in a serpentine position, and they looked confident.
boom!
A shell fell from the sky and hit him. Only a bunker full of plasma was seen on the ground, and there were arms and legs who didn't know who it was.
The machine gunner lying on the ground wanted to fight back, and the bullet rushed towards him at the beach with a swift viper...
Then he saw the follow-up troops, and the front deck of the landing ship was slowly opening.
At the same time, the heavy machine gun in the bunker suddenly shouted again roaring.
Roar roar...
The blood splattered, his arms were flying sideways, and the soldiers who had not yet stepped out of the landing ship merged together, and no longer distinguished each other.
A sergeant dragged a soldier who was shot and wanted to take him to a safe place.
boom!
There was a ring in his ear, and the soldier in his hand seemed to be much lighter. When he looked back, there was only one broken arm in his hand.
In the bunker not far away, there was a puddle of something that seemed to be staining mud in the smoke.
The most desperate people on the beach are the medics who desperately want to save people. Their poor power wants to save the wounded.
One, even just one, but there was nothing but the desperate sound of desperately panting in the stomach and arms and legs.
A soldier who was injured in an artery was being rescued. When military forceps stopped bleeding blood vessels, a bullet penetrated his head.
",,..." The medic still left the device on the ground and used an angry roar to vent his anger.
This is not the only battlefield. The Allies chose 5 beaches as landing sites on the Normandy landing day.
Utah Beach and Omaha are under the responsibility of the United States, and Golden Beach and Sword Beach are under the responsibility of the British and Canadians.
Juno Beach was attacked by young recruits from the Sarop Light Infantry Regiment.
But there was no more tragic beach than Omaha Beach. Allied forces suffered huge losses here, and even later described it as "Bloody Omaha".
With the advantages of bunkers and trenches, the Allies did not gain the upper hand for a while, but the biggest problems were also exposed.
They did not increase personnel, and the Allied forces seemed to be endless. Even if they could continue fighting, bullets and supplies were limited.
Actually, they guessed right. For this landing, the Allied forces assembled up to 2.88 million troops, 5,300 warships and 13,700 combat aircraft.
At the moment, only the 21st Armored Division located in the east of Caen can be effectively supported.
When the Allied forces launched the attack, Rommel, who was far away at home, ordered the mobilization of the 21st Armored Division to the beach, but was rejected by the headquarters.
They believe that the Allied forces that appeared in Normandy are only feints, and the real goal is still Calais, where they are the focus of attention.
The commander-in-chief of Normandy, the battle command and the generals were all absent, and no one dared to make a decision at the risk of violating the order.
What's more, they don't have this ability. If Rommel was there, he would still be able to forcibly throw the 21st Armored Division onto the beach, even with the command of the headquarters.
Unfortunately, his judgment was wrong, and the Allies attacked in the most unlikely weather.
It seems that they are about to succeed.
Rommel wanted to report personally to the head of state. The news was that the head of state was sleeping and strictly forbidden to disturb him.
There is Rommel called Desert Fox, and he can only help but smash his mouth and endure the swearing that he wants to blurt out.
With the advantage of the number, the life of the Allied soldiers moved forward, and every inch was covered with the blood of countless people.
But they finally saw the hope of victory, right in front of them.
...
In the early morning of the 6th, the war continued, but the entire Allies fell into great joy and celebration.
The Allied forces sounded the trumpet of victory. This was a victory for all mankind. They finally launched a counterattack against France and successfully occupied Normandy.
"The Allied forces are expanding their advantages, forming a complete landing site with points of cover, and winning the bridgehead of the final victory. The justice Allies will definitely win..."
The report deliberately ignored the casualties, leaving everyone immersed in joy.
At this time people need these, and the Allied forces also need the people to believe that they are fighting for justice ~EbookFREE.me~ and won the final victory.
It was their mission that 13,700 planes traveled non-stop between the two sides of the English Channel, blowing up German armored support and destroying the remaining transportation routes to Normandy.
Occupying the five beaches is good news for the Allies.
But the war has just begun here, and the next 24 hours are a crucial moment, which also indicates whether they can expand the results.
The whole Normandy was dyed red with blood. If anyone wants to know what the real sea of blood is like, he should come here and see.
In the secretary's office of the Logistics Department, piles of bad news drifted across the United States through telegrams like snowflakes.
Countless families received bad news from the Army Department on this day, but they hope they never received it.
The war has cost them everything, father, brother, child, husband...
Some families even lost all their males, and their husbands and children were all sacrificed on the battlefield.
The United States on this day was immersed in gloomy sorrow and despair when big cities such as New York fell into revelry.
The post-war pension organizations are also making full efforts to make up for these families, but the beautiful language is so pale and weak.
Nothing can heal such a brutal wound, this war.
