Under such circumstances, even Hu Biao and the others with strong bloodlines had extraordinary physiques, and felt a little tired.

With that tired look on his face, even Lieutenant Don Collier took a look and knew that these guys were exhausted.

After thinking of something, Lieutenant Don Collier looked up at the sky, and he could clearly find that not only was there no moonlight in the sky tonight.

Instead, there was a dense black cloud entrenched, and it seemed that a heavy rain was about to come.

After hesitating for a moment, he discussed with Hu Biao:

"Second Lieutenant Hu, why don't we stay here for a few more hours? Because this will not only give you a rest, but also avoid the coming rainstorm.

When it doesn't rain early tomorrow morning, it won't be too late for us to continue to set off.

According to our previous reconnaissance, there are no German stick troops nearby, and it is considered safe here; and even if the heavy rain damages the road, but with the passage and towing capabilities of our tanks, there is no need to worry about your truck getting stuck on the road. "

To be honest, one of the things Hu Biao wants to do most now is to lie down and have a good sleep.

Even if there is no comfortable big bed, even if I sleep on the hard ground in the open air, I am very much looking forward to it.

As a result, after hearing Lieutenant Don Collier's statement, even the last worry in his heart was immediately dispelled, and he nodded in agreement with such a statement.

Immediately, he yelled for Qingtian, the team cook, to prepare some serious food for them, and to fill their bellies first.

And because of the existence of the German stick artillery positions before, they didn't have to sleep in the open.

After a large number of German stick soldiers were killed, there were enough field tents here to accommodate them.

In this way, Hu Biao and others first ate a meal of the captured German canned food, which filled their already somewhat hungry stomachs; let alone!Hu Biao and the others were lucky.

Because in addition to some vegetables they seized, the canned food they seized was German stick canned pigs.

As we all know, among the canned military cans used throughout World War II, the canned beef of the soldiers and the canned pork of the German stick are definitely among the best.

But compared to the little devil's house, those canned beef for baiting, and the canned spam luncheon meat of the soldiers, these things are much better.

Especially Qingtian put these canned pork into the marching pot, and after adding water, stewed it with some vegetables in a big pot.

It may not be very good in appearance, but the taste is really quite good.

In this way, Hu Biao and his group had a full meal.

Even, while these bastards were waiting for the food to be stewed, they soaked their feet in hot water one after another, which somewhat relieved some of their physical fatigue from the past few days.

Finally, at about 1:[-] in the middle of the night, Hu Biao got into a single tent.

He pulled a dirty blanket to cover his body, but when he closed his eyes, a mountain-like grunt sounded from his mouth.

This loud snoring sound was passed on, and gathered together with the surrounding snoring sounds, forming a loud chorus.

So much so that Ye Yu, after tossing and turning, had to plug her ears with cotton, and fell asleep.

So far, except for 2 clear sentries and 2 hidden sentries in this camp, everyone else has entered a dream.

Talk!If everything goes well, they will get up in about 5 hours, then finish their breakfast as quickly as possible, and start to return to the safe regiment headquarters not far from Omaha Beach.

At that time, because of Hu Biao's recent excellent performance, and Lieutenant Don Collier's strong recommendation.

Of course, I would also like to thank the dead Lieutenant Deckard for dying, which made the position of company commander of D Company vacant.

Just as Hu Biao expected, he might be able to wait for a promotion order soon.

The problem is, among the tasks that the system has always had, there is no such thing as saying that everything is normal; therefore, a more difficult task is coming to them.

Regarding these, Hu Biao and the others, who are sleeping soundly at the moment, still don't know anything about it.

Compared with the new tasks they are about to usher in, the Tiger tanks and the 45-kilometer forced march they have experienced before are just appetizers.

correct!After 12 midnight, the current date is already June 44, 6...

******

After Hu Biao and others entered the sweet dream, some bad things they didn't know were constantly fermenting.

At 2:03 midnight, in the dark of the English Channel.

At such a moment, there are still a large number of ships that are constantly shuttling and sailing after lighting up their bright headlights.

Regarding such a scene, it is actually not rare at all.

Because up to now, the huge landing force of the Allied forces has still not successfully captured and controlled a large port.

And the huge number of landing troops need to consume a lot of supplies every day.

Therefore, the current allied forces have no choice but to continuously transport materials to various beaches through landing craft and ferries day and night.

Then use vehicles such as cars to continue to transfer to various front lines.

What the hell!That is to say, soldiers with deep pockets can afford such a material transfer method, and Guo Jia would have gone bankrupt if they were replaced by others.

As for the above, only landing craft can be used to transport supplies.

It is estimated that only when large port cities such as Cherbourg are captured can the situation be fundamentally improved.

This is also the biggest reason why Hu Biao and his party received the armed reconnaissance mission, because the Allied forces have already launched the attack plan against Cherbourg.

A large amount of equipment and troops are being assembled to the outskirts of Cherbourg.

Once in this process, the attacking force is defeated by the German large-scale armored force, and if a guy comes on the flank, it will have a great impact on the entire follow-up battle plan of the Allied forces...

Looking out of the window into the dark night, Bruce Jones, the lieutenant captain of the private soldier.

After pouring a sip of boiling hot coffee into his mouth, he immediately showed a rather hopeless expression.

The main reason was that in such a middle of the night, not only could he not have a good rest, but he had to drink strong bitter coffee to refresh himself and cheer up the task he was performing.

Bruce Jones, the captain of a certain Cleveland-class light cruiser in the private navy sequence.

Considering the famous German submarine force, if it passes through the anti-submarine network at both ends of the strait and enters the English Channel, it will pose a huge threat to the material delivery force.

For this purpose, the Allied forces prepared a large number of escort troops to escort the convoy for material delivery.

Maybe it's the reason why poor Major Bruce Jones has never had a good rest since the start of 'Operation Overlord', and is now mentally exhausted.

After drinking a cup of bitter coffee, he still felt the deep tiredness in his body.

For this reason, he said to the chief mate beside him:

"Hey! Lieutenant Mark, help me keep an eye on this place. I need to go to the deck to enjoy the sea breeze. I hope the cold sea breeze can clear up my damn mind."

After hearing the words, the first mate Mark, who also had heavy dark circles on his eye sockets, nodded and said:

"Go ahead, Captain, although according to my experience, except for a bed, any other method will not work well, and it will not solve the fundamental problem."

Under such ridicule, Bruce Jones walked to the bow.

I don't know if it was because he was too sleepy, but the captain, the major, stood behind the bow, although he always felt that something was wrong tonight.

But what is the reason for his brain that is seriously down now, unexpectedly for a while?

In the end, after a huge ups and downs and jolts in the bow almost made him fall on the deck, Major Bruce Jones woke up suddenly:

It's the weather here in the English Channel that has changed and gotten worse.

damn it!With such a big wind and waves, even a thousand-ton light cruiser like theirs would heave violently.

Then if the target is replaced by those landing craft and ferries with limited tonnage that can be described as pocket-sized, wouldn't the environment on the sponge be a huge disaster at the moment.

After thinking of this, Bruce Jones became miraculously spirited in the midst of great panic.

Immediately, he planned to run back to the command room to contact the command headquarters, suggesting that they stop this kind of fight immediately, which would be tantamount to letting the pilots of the landing craft commit suicide to deliver supplies.

The subsequent delivery of materials can only wait until the storm subsides.

As for during this period, due to the lack of supplies, will those army units that have already landed in Normandy suffer a lot from the German counterattack.

In this way, he, a small navy lieutenant commander, can't control so much.

Because sacrificing a small number of people to achieve more people is not in line with the spirit of freedom and democracy in Uncle Sam's family.

It is a pity that Major Bruce Jones has no way to provide such a suggestion to the Allied Command.

Because when he was running, a ferryboat, driven by huge waves, collided with the light cruiser he was on uncontrollably.

Suddenly, in this strong collision, poor Lieutenant Bruce Jones lost his balance under his feet, and was thrown far away in the impact.

He hit a naval gun directly, and passed out on the spot with his head bleeding.

That is to say, one of his sailors reacted in time and grabbed his collar without hesitation, otherwise the poor major would have been thrown into the sea.

And at the same time, on land in the Normandy region.

A torrential rain that has been brewing for some time has already fallen with a "splash~" so heavy that people can only see a few meters away.

"What the hell! There are so many tents, why did you choose a leaky one?"

When a gust of cold rain fell on his face and head, Hu Biao was awakened directly by a shock.

It's just that he was a little too tired, and after instinctively complaining in his mouth, he just moved his position a little bit to get out of the leaking hole in the tent, and fell asleep again.

He didn't realize at all what such a heavy rain meant to him and the entire Central Continent team, and what it would bring...

Time: 4:17 a.m.

Location: Behind a conference room at Allied Command in the rear security.

The five-star general of Uncle Sam's family, the famous General Eisenhower, yawned a big way, and gave himself a cup of coffee first.

After drinking the coffee, he asked the generals who had already filled the conference room:

"Okay, is everyone here now?

Now that everyone is here, Smith, please introduce the situation to everyone, and let everyone know why you are urgently woken up for a meeting at such a time. "

Under such an order, his adjutant, Lieutenant Colonel Smith, held a report in his hand to the generals present, and began to say:

"My dear generals, I have to inform you of some bad news.

Starting at around two o'clock in the morning this morning, a strong wind of magnitude 8 or above suddenly blew across the English Channel, causing the waves to reach a height of 1.8 meters. It can be said to have caused a devastating blow to our material delivery process.

Only up to now, after some preliminary statistics.

There was a collision between a light cruiser and a ferry, both of which suffered serious losses. In addition, 1 large landing craft, 1 oil tanker, 3 barges, 7 trawlers, and more than 60 small landing craft were sunk .

Even about 800 landing craft were scraped ashore in the huge waves and suffered various damages.

To make matters worse, according to our urgent inquiry to the meteorological department, they said that such a bad weather will last at least 5 days.

In other words, the planned 10 vehicles and [-] tons of supplies, these key things simply cannot be delivered in time. "
