Colonel hunter watched the Germans quickly move out of the attack line and knew that the situation was developing in the worst direction. At this time, their infantry could not stop it.

"Come on, call the headquarters and send a plane to bomb the German troops!"

There is also an airport in Reykjavik. As the capital of Iceland, it used to be a foothold for flights between Europe and America for some time.

Now, a certain number of P-40 fighters have been deployed here.

At the beginning of World War II, the P-40 fighter was infamous and was badly beaten by the Zero fighter. However, it also had certain advantages.

For example, its wing load is very low, and it has good performance in medium and low altitude entanglement. As long as it is used correctly, it can still become a good fighter.

At the same time, it is also because they have no choice.

All services ask for money, and the navy is burning money. It is really impossible to equip too many aircraft, and this batch of P-40 was originally made for France.

As a result, the French air force surrendered before it received it, so it was just received by the United States itself, caught up with the tension in the European battlefield, and deployed to Iceland.

In addition to being used in air combat, it can also carry two 500 pound bombs for ground attack.

In fact, without the call of ground troops, after receiving the forced landing of kevlavik base by Germany, the base here also received the order.

"Come on, hang up the bomb!" The base is busy. The fighters here used to fight in the air. Only the bullets in the machine gun are pressed. Now to attack the ground, only the machine gun is obviously insufficient. There must be a bomb.

The ground crew hurriedly pushed the bomb out of the ammunition depot and ran towards the apron. Almost at this time, the sharp air defense alarm sounded.

Before formulating the attack action, Germany is very strict. Of course, they will not miss their aviation base. A large number of hs-129 sweepers have flown to Germany!

Every time the nose is down, it will sweep the violent 40mm shells to the ground, and the bombs on the ground will be exploded.

"Boom, boom!" There are explosions and flames everywhere. The aviation soldiers here are also second-line troops, almost rookies who have just graduated from the aviation school. Before they take off, the whole base is a sea of fire.

If they are skilled enough, they should at least take off a few aerial excellent fighters to protect the sky above them, but now, when the German planes fly away, it is terrible here.

The Germans are hateful. They flew from the East.

Reykjavik is a coastal city, the west is the sea, and there is also the possible direction of attack of the Germans. Therefore, coastal defense guns and anti-aircraft guns are arranged in the West. As a result, the Germans came in a circle from the East!

The Germans crossed the mountains and boldly interspersed themselves from the mountains. Almost immediately after coming out of the mountain, they began to attack without giving the Americans any reaction time.

Ground troops, no longer fantasize about getting air support.

Tiger tanks rumbled away, with Panther tanks on both wings, followed by infantry, step by step towards the defense line of the 5th land exhibition regiment.

"Grenadier, go!" Cried Colonel Kate.

With his command, the soldiers with cluster grenades rushed forward one by one. On the flat ground, they had almost nothing to cover. They could only run the S-shaped bullet avoidance route and avoid the attack of the other party by speed and mobility.

Just run a few tens of meters forward.

And these tens of meters are their place of death.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss." German tanks made the sound of a chainsaw. In front of the tank, the radio operator operated an Mg machine gun and shot fiercely. 7.92mm bullets spilled over.

The firing speed is too fast. As long as you get shot, it's definitely not one, but many!

When the bullet hit the man, there were several holes at once. They fell back under the impact of the bullet.

The vision of the tank is limited and it is impossible to take care of all places. In the gap of the tank, the infantry behind, holding assault rifles in their hands, adjusted to the continuous firing mode and made a clatter sound.

"Machine gun fire!" Cried Colonel Kate.

Here, the water-cooled m1917a1 water-cooled heavy machine gun roared.

The bullet chain rattled, and the yellow and orange bullets were stuffed into the barrel, flew out of the muzzle with terrible speed and fired at the gap of the German tank. Machine guns can't deal with tanks, but they can hit infantry next to tanks.

In the chirping voice, several soldiers were swept away.

At this time, the tank moved again.

"Boom!" The 88 mm tank gun roared. In the black smoke, a grenade accurately hit the other party's machine gun position. In an instant, the whole machine gun position flew up.

The combination of tanks and infantry is a perfect match. Tanks are used to charge. Infantry protect the blind area of tanks. Tanks fight each other's blockhouses and protect their own infantry. Germany has long been skilled in this forward tactic.

Colonel hunter watched the other party move forward, and his heart was quite worried.

"Commander, the division commander asked us to hold on. They are arranging minefields in the rear." Just then, a radio soldier shouted to him.

The front is in contact with the German army! After learning that, major general van der grift, the rear division commander, immediately made a decision to underground the car and lay mines immediately!

They can't stop the German tank attack, but they can use the minefield to block the German action. The faster the attack, the more favorable it is to the landing forces. The longer it takes, the easier it is for the defenders to organize effective resistance.

Now, our own side should resist, and even the whole regiment should sacrifice here!

Colonel Hunter looked at the approaching tank troops and said, "attention, everyone should prepare anti tank grenades!"

The German approach is unstoppable. When they approach to a certain extent, their own side can throw a large number of grenades without rushing forward.

Baslon took his anti tank gun and aimed at a Tiger tank again. When his gun rang, the tank stopped!

I hit again!

Almost at the same time, countless flying bullets shot at him. Although baslon was running quickly, he still felt a pain in his ankle, just like a mosquito bite. When he looked down, it was full of blood.

He felt that his gun was heavy and could no longer hold it. His body fell down.

"Baslon!" Beside him, two recruits climbed over and dragged his body back behind a stone.

The extremely brave baslon was an American hero who killed more than 3000 Island soldiers with the help of two wounded comrades in arms in the battle of Guadao in history. Here, only a few shots were fired and wounded.

Even so, his record has been very outstanding. He used an anti tank gun to stop the attack of two Tiger tanks! If you give him a better weapon, he will be able to do better!
