A Weird Theater That Started In London
Chapter 38 Death Mission
The sergeant's mess hall was empty, and on the mirror next to the fireplace, there was a final note, which was hastily scribbled by the cook before he left——
[Coming soon, will never be canceled]
Unfortunately, things backfired.
At 2:30 in the morning, the soldiers of the 1st Paratrooper Brigade had not yet taken off. They sat in the designated area and listened to the instructions of the leading officers: Under the cover of night, thousands of bombers will bomb the operation area indiscriminately to ensure that The enemy's air defense positions will not pose a threat to the airborne troops, and we will start at ten o'clock in the morning and arrive near Arnhem after one o'clock in the afternoon.
From now on, all of you start to study sand table maps and scouting photos until you can draw a map of the target area by yourself!
There was a commotion.
An hour ago, the soldiers were told that the airborne mission was about to start, but when they came to the airport to see that only the bombers had taken off, they had to stay here and wait, and they were asked to remember some landmarks by force.
However, these have nothing to do with Lu Li, because he is leaving now!
Parachute signalman, a high-risk occupation.
In each airborne operation, these people will land first, then arrive at the predetermined area, and mark the landing area and airdrop field for the follow-up troops.
Unfortunately, just a few minutes ago, the task from the division headquarters made Lu Li fall into the abyss——
His platoon was assigned guidance duty.
In fact, this does not conform to historical facts.
On the night before the time travel, Lu Li checked a lot of information and accidentally found an action schedule.
The leading troops of the 1st Airborne Division were supposed to take off at 10:25 a.m. and go to the Netherlands. However, this time was advanced by a full eight hours!
Apart from the omnipotent principal, Lu Li couldn't think of anyone else who could do things so terribly.
Presumably, at this time, all the candidates who traveled through time had encountered a similar situation.
Boy, hurry up and get on the plane.
The big Miller couldn't wait any longer. He felt that it was a great honor to be the guide and be the first group of landing personnel.
So, without waiting for Lu Li's answer, he pulled him into the cabin.
Immediately afterwards, six C-47 transport planes took off in sequence at intervals of five to twenty seconds. They would leave the base in Lincolnshire and fly forward over the coast of Aldeburgh.
Three thirty in the morning.
In the dimly lit cabin, red lights kept flashing.
Soldiers who took anti-sickness pills in advance had reactions of varying degrees. Some had dry throats and some had difficulty swallowing, so they closed their eyes to try to relieve the discomfort.
However, Lu Li didn't take the airsickness medicine because he was too anxious and forgot to take the medicine.
Frankly speaking, this is the first time he has taken a plane, and it is an old-fashioned military plane. The whole process is painful, and his internal organs are uncomfortable. Fortunately, the dinner has already been digested, otherwise, he would definitely vomit all over his body .
Not only that, what to do after a few hours of skydiving has become a headache.
After all, jumping down from a height of hundreds of meters not only tests the heart, but also requires superb skills, otherwise it will become disabled.
Although in memory, he has received the most professional training, but he has never practiced everything, and it is not normal to not panic.
Man, something is wrong with you tonight, what the hell happened?
Miller leaned in again.
During this period of time, he had been paying attention to Lu Li, and seeing his absent-minded appearance, he became even more worried—platoon A will shoulder a huge responsibility, and the leading sergeant is not in the mood, it is definitely a disaster.
Lu Li also noticed that many soldiers were watching him, so he waved his hand and said calmly, It's nothing, just a little airsick...
Grass!
Before they finished speaking, a suction force came from the hatch. No one knew what went wrong. They didn't care about everything and clung to the handrail tightly.
Not long after, a wailing voice suddenly came from Lu Li's ear: Squad leader, save me!
Under the strong wind, he squinted to find the source of the sound.
That was Private First Class Francis Monk, who was sitting near the cargo hatch, and as a result, when the hatch popped open for unknown reasons, the force of the air nearly sucked him out of the cabin.
In fact, half of this guy's body has already gone out, and if no rescue is carried out, then there is only one result, he is forced to land on the sea surface, and then wait for death, or pray for a miracle to appear.
While hesitating, Monk's right hand was already out of the handle, and the rucksack was blown away, and a lot of banknotes flew out of it. These were all won by him from his companions four hours ago. As many as ten thousand.
Now, he can only place his hope on his left hand, the life-supporting rope, and his companions, and the person closest to Monk is Lu Li, and there is about three statures between them.
Let go, according to the usual training requirements, open the parachute at 250 meters.
Don't be afraid, there are amphibious aircraft circling at low altitude in this sea area. They will mark the crash site and guide the rescue boat to arrive.
Miller yelled that he thought it was the most sensible thing to do and everyone would understand.
At the same time, a gust of strong air flow hit, turning everything in the cabin upside down.
Lu Li floated in mid-air, clutching his hands and crawling towards the hatch, cursing, Damn it, you were playing cards with Yangshou before! Give me your left hand, quick!
Perhaps because he didn't want to feed the sharks, or because he didn't want to be sucked into the bottom of the sea by the dark tide, Monk slowly released his left hand, from the little finger to the ring finger to the middle finger, and leaned forward as much as possible.
He was betting that the traction rope had enough tension and that Lu Li could catch him in time.
At about the same time, the co-pilot, Sergeant Bill Oakes, looked back to see how his passengers were doing.
To his horror, a paratrooper was about to fly out of the cabin, and the non-commissioned officer sitting nearby was trying to rescue——
That is almost impossible to achieve unless the strength is strong enough and the timing is precise enough.
Sergeant, you still have ten seconds!
Bill roared loudly, he didn't have time to explain the reason, and after he finished speaking, he forced himself to return to the dashboard.
Let go, trust me...
At this time, Lu Li who climbed to the edge of the hatch also roared.
However, before receiving a response, he saw Monk's hand completely leave.
Almost subconsciously, he leaned forward again and grabbed half of his palm, and at some point, Miller also pulled the leash.
The two of them exerted their strength at the same time, only feeling that something was dragging them down. At a critical moment, someone pulled the two of them from behind, the feeling of falling disappeared, and Monk returned to the cabin.
The pilot did a graceful somersault, and the hatch slammed shut again.
Yesterday I secretly asked the editor if there were no readers for this book. He said yes. I thought the editor in charge was trying to comfort me. As a result, I received a lot of recommendation votes today. I am touched! Thank you so much readers.
ps. There is a small bug about time in the second chapter of this volume, which has been modified and will not affect subsequent reading
