Imperial Overlord

The fighting was still raging, and the resistance of the British soldiers had begun to chaotic. The loss of half of the machine gun made the remaining British troops extremely passive.

"Damn it! The Germans are coming too fast! The runway has not been repaired, and your plane can't take off at all." The British officer said helplessly to the American officer as he heard the gunshots coming closer.

The officer of the U.S. Army Air Corps didn't know what to say at this time. He came to bomb the German oil fields, not to fight the German paratroopers.

Flying in the sky, the B-17 pilots were fighting in a fortress-like place, with heavy machine guns and cannons to deal with enemy fighters, and sturdy airframes to face thin enemy fighters.

In that state, they are confident to face the enemy. But now they're on the ground... Let the air force fight land battles, isn't this a joke?

Of course, this U.S. Army Air Forces commander must have never heard of such a strange existence as the Hermann Goering Division.

"We can't stay here and defend the airport with you, right?" The American officer asked rhetorically with a hint of annoyance.

"Now it's too late for you to leave. The airport is full of German paratroopers, and your plane can't take off..." The British officer showed a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, which made the American officer even more annoyed.

"Then you will transfer troops and **** my soldiers out of here, head office, right?" The American officer was planning to take his pilot away when the gentleman did not stand against the wall.

You know, the pilots on 50 B-17s are not a small number. Counting more than 500 people, it is not a small force.

"Leave? The phone can't get through now. From a few hours ago, there have been shadows of German paratroopers all over the main roads... If you think leaving is a safe choice, then you can take people away." British officers are now Don't be afraid of making things difficult for American officers.

"I don't have any troops assigned to you now, and the person who escorted you left...Did you hear the gunshots outside the window?" He pointed to the window and asked loudly.

Maybe a few hours later, everyone will be living in a German prisoner of war camp, whose thoughts and feelings will I take care of? That's the thought in the mind of the British officer right now.

Now what he has to worry about is how to block the German paratroopers who are constantly approaching his building at the airport outside the door.

The opponent kept attacking, and he had a battalion of troops to defend here, but there were really not many people in all directions.

Choked by the British officer, the American officer opened his mouth, but didn't dare to say that he would take someone away without the British escort.

He only had a pistol in his hand, and most of the pilots had no ground combat experience. Although the number of people seems to be quite large, when encountering real German ground field troops, the other party estimates that one platoon will be able to reimburse all of their more than 500 people.

Count on the pistols that the pilots carry with them to take out German paratroopers blocking the way, and then find their way to the location of the British main force? Whoever arranged the evacuation plan like this should be hanged...

"Contact other friendly forces and let them come to support us! If the airport is lost, isn't it all over?" The American officers still didn't give up. Since they couldn't leave, it would be good to find someone to help.

The British officer smiled wryly and did not answer the American question. When he was attacked last night, he had already issued a distress signal.

The phone could still get through at that time, and his boss also gave him a clear answer. Before this morning, a battalion of soldiers should arrive at the airport to strengthen the defense here.

But now, the reinforcements promised by the superiors have not arrived yet, but the German paratroopers have come first. The phone has also been blocked, and no one knows what is going on outside.

According to the results, the British soldiers who came to support obviously encountered the blocking of German paratroopers on the way. With only a few kilometers to go, of course nothing else could have happened.

The telephone line has been cut off by the German paratroopers, and the telegram has just been sent out. Now it is very obvious that before relying on others, I have to hold on for at least an hour or more.

But things didn't go according to plan. After only half an hour, his airport's outer defense line was penetrated. The enemy was firing near the runway, and the entire airport was in chaos.

Judging from the current situation, the real combat troops under his command can only support them for about half an hour at most, and they will be defeated by the opponent.

"Let your people take sappers and blow up all the bombers in the airport!" Suddenly remembering this important matter, the British officer hurriedly issued an order to blow up the planes.

These bombers are new bombers that have just been in service in the United States. They are the most advanced 4-engine long-range bombers in the world.

If the Germans captured this batch of bombers, the speed at which they designed their own bombers would have greatly shortened the little bit of safety left in northern England, and it would have become equally unsafe.

Make sure to blow up these planes before they get lost at the airport! That's what British officers think, but it's not what American officers think.

"My people? They are pilots, not sappers! There are bullets everywhere, and I can't order my people to carry out plans other than bombing!" The American officer coldly rejected the British officer's suggestion.

He turned around and said to his men, "Destroy the pilot's identification and all signs of the United States Army Air Forces immediately! Quick!"

"Yes!" After hearing the order of their superiors, the other officers of the American pilots left quickly, carrying a lot of documents with them.

The American pilots were ordered to fly B-17 bombers painted with the British Air Force logo as volunteer pilots to bomb the Libyan oil base in Germany.

Although the American B-17 bombers parked on the ground have been changed to British livery, there are many, many identifications on the island of Crete about these American pilots, which did not need to be taken care of.

Like all kinds of certificates to prove the identity of these American pilots, and things like passports in Crete.

When these things take off and perform tasks, they are not allowed to be carried, but they are essential things on the ground. The main reason is because these American pilots are not real volunteer pilots, but the U.S. Army Aviation Corps directly dispatched!

After their bombing mission, they still have to go back to the United States. The bombers are also leaving, so the pilots haven't changed their identities completely, and according to the original plan, they don't need to be changed at all.

But now, it is clear that their identities will definitely become a serious issue that affects the world. It is precisely because of this that the American commander ordered to quickly destroy these visual evidence.

At this moment, American pilots can no longer use their American identities in order to confirm that they "come here voluntarily to help".

For a while, the pilot station in the airport also became chaotic. British troops are burning documents to prepare for battle, Americans are burning all kinds of identity documents, and anything reminiscent of the United States.

Including their flight jackets, as well as their armbands and armbands... For a while, the black smoke rolled, making the attacking Germans a little confused.

"What are they doing? Don't call it out, fight back against us... Hide and burn things in the room?" A German paratrooper leaned on the bunker next to the airport, squinting at the house not far across.

"Whatever you are doing, press forward! Drive the people who are guarding the room out!" Another German soldier fired a shot in the distance and replied when he pulled the bolt.

The British positions had been compressed into a crescent, and some Germans had gotten close to those massive American B-17 bombers. The two sides continued to fire across the plane. Some British soldiers heroically tried to regain control of the plane and kept countering the attack of the German paratroopers.

Obviously, by this point in the battle, the British defenders had confirmed that their defensive positions were being attacked by the Germans, and they knew very well that it seemed that they could not hold their positions with their own strength.

The British sappers who received the order, under the cover of other soldiers, were trying their best to get close to the American bombers near the apron, wanting to blow up these important planes before the Germans took over there.

Throwing explosives into the fuselage of a B-17, the British sappers turned and ran under the hail of bullets. They need to get out before the explosives go off, or they'll be hit by a violent explosion.

From time to time, soldiers were knocked over by the German army, and the British soldiers fought back bravely against the bunkers. Some people relied on the buildings in the airport to keep delaying the German attack.~www.wuxiaspot.com~Boom ! "A huge explosion rose into the air, and the fuselage of an American B-17 bomber painted with the British Air Force's bullseye logo exploded. The huge fuselage broke apart and was paralyzed on the edge of the airport's runway.

The slender wings of the B-17 fell from the height of two people, the machine gun turret under the fuselage was crushed by the broken fuselage, the glass was squeezed and cracked, and splashes were everywhere.

"Damn! The British want to blow up those planes! Hurry up! Don't let them get away with it!" the German paratrooper officer shouted, frowning at the B-17 bomber exploding on the airfield.

Just as he shouted this sentence, the British sappers rushed towards the second B-17 under the cover of machine guns.

In the face of the enemy's plan to destroy the entire airport, the German paratroopers attacked even more fiercely. Lehmann had rushed from the other side to the other end of the airport, where he had killed at least 10 British soldiers who were trying to rush out of the building— —
