The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The German soldiers responsible for patroling at night found that they could not see clearly almost five meters away. However, despite this, these tall and powerful German soldiers still took on the responsibility of patrolling the night, allowing the rain to flow down their cheeks into their necks.

This is the important city of Jeff in the Lorraine region, about 40 kilometers away from the French guarded by Verdun. It is almost 30 kilometers away from the entire front line. In the eyes of either side, this place is an absolutely safe area. The news of the smooth attack in the front came, and the entire German army of Jeff celebrated, but the problem that caused them headaches came. Most of the supplies were still in Metz's warehouse. According to the original plan of the General Staff, these supplies had to be transported forward with the follow-up troops when Verdun fought a war of attrition with the French. However, in just one day, the German army successfully broke through nearly twenty kilometers, which has never happened since the war began. Many German soldiers even breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the damn Frenchmen could not bear it anymore. The war might soon end with the victory of the Second German Empire.

However, the front line now needs troops and supplies, and the German officers responsible for the attack on the front line called for subsequent reinforcements. So the German troops stationed in Metz were asked to carry only one standard base ammunition and rushed to the front line on the afternoon of the 15th. More materials and heavy artillery were asked to postpone the transportation until the 16th to make way for the infantry. The light artillery was brought forward by the infantry without any hesitation. Without cannons, these brave German infantry would really become rifle soldiers.

At the same time, the German army had about 11 divisions of troops on standby in Luxembourg. They were now asked to march directly towards Verdun without having to go to the German army's important battle center for this battle. It seems that as long as the Verdun defense line is broken, the war that has lasted for three years will be over. The German army suddenly became more and more morale, and none of them cared about the fact that Metz, who had accumulated about 65% of the total war materials of the German army, was about to become an empty city. The German army with only one infantry regiment and the German army with three baggage regiments, were responsible for garrison and transportation tasks in this city.

Today, the patrol of this post about one kilometer away from the town of Zerv is a German soldier named Woller from Munich, the capital of Bavaria. He is 191cm tall. His tall figure is paired with a standard German face and dazzling blonde hair. He is only nineteen years old this year in Munich, but many girls like it. Before joining the army, Woller was a small worker in a brewery. He worked very hard, but his skills are average. This is his master who treated him. However, what Waller is good at is not brewing beer. He is tall and amateur player of the local football club Bayern Munich team in Munich. To be precise, he played as a striker. Before enlisting in the army, he was also the youngest player in the first team of Bayern Munich. In the derby battle with the Munich 1860 team founded in 1860, he relied on his tall figure and pushed four goals in one breath. Fans praised him as a natural resource for playing football.

Unfortunately, the damn war broke out, and the star's dream became a silence. Woller had to say goodbye to his beautiful girlfriend and put on his military uniform and go to this damn battlefield to fight with the Frenchman. Calculate the days. Woller has been enlisted in the army for more than half a year, but he has not had the chance to go to the front line to kill a Frenchman. This time, the troops he was in were very lucky to be arranged in the rear to protect the safety of the entire logistics supply line. Victory has waved to the great German Majesty again. It seems It is very likely that by the end of the war, he would not have the chance to shoot at the Frenchman. Perhaps he would have to defeat these Frenchman on the football field in the future. Waller suddenly missed his mother a little. She was a standard German rural woman with a bucket-like waist. She always shouted at several children, and didn't seem very kind to herself. She always shouted at herself: Waller, you idiot, you kicked your shoes out again. Don't you know that you can't wear leather shoes when playing football.

But for some reason, looking at the sky reddened by artillery fire from time to time and the slight roar of cannons in the distance, Wollar actually missed this fierce mother a little. It's really damn. The soldiers of the Empire were not allowed to miss home when performing their missions. Wollar quickly shook his blonde hair, then cheered up and continued to observe. The rain was getting heavier and heavier,.

Suddenly, Wollar, who was blinking his eyes to avoid a drop of rain, felt a wind coming towards him. Under the conditioned reflex, he looked back and saw a sharp dagger gently slashing through his neck, and his throat suddenly felt a chill. When the enemy attacked, Wollar tried hard to scream to remind him to guard the sentry with him, but no matter how hard he tried, his throat could not make a sound, and life seemed to have passed away little by little from his body.

The moment he fell to the ground, Woller looked at the murderer who was wiping the dagger on his body, a thick enemy, wearing the French uniform, but he looked, well, his eyes were so sleepy that he couldn't see clearly, Woller's war was finally over,.

On the night of the 15th, the German army, who received supplements and reinforcements, launched an unprecedented attack with the courage of the fearless, on the French army, which became depressed due to being caught off guard. Artillery of various calibers was unceremoniously leaning its ammunition towards the French army's positions, while the brave German infantry rushed towards the French army's positions without fear.

Although Nivel re-adjusted the deployment, most of the heavy weapons were unable to be transported back to the fourth line of defense because the third line of defense was too fast. Now the only fire support the French army could rely on was the heavy machine guns configured by the infantry. No one could imagine that the Germans attacked overnight. The low-morning French army finally began to lose their support after three hours of persistence. Fortunately, the Germans did not know that the French could no longer hold on, and they had already fired up their shells, so they chose to stop. Stop, wait for reinforcements to come up tomorrow morning before continuing to attack. At the same time, they also tragically discovered another thing. Neither the Duomon Fortress nor the Vaugh Castle were taken down by the Germans. The battle lasted from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 pm. Although the German soldiers were very brave, the Chinese like groundhogs seemed to be more tenacious. Four thousand brave German soldiers fell on the way to charge, but the Germans did not capture even a bunker. The combat power of these Chinese people was really unreasonable.

The task of the three squads where Zhao Yanbin, Ma Wenyuan and Xia Liqiu were to defend the No. 184 bunker. This bunker was cast with cement and steel bars. Strictly speaking, as long as it was not directly hit by the German 210mm caliber heavy artillery, there would be no big trouble. However, unlike those bunkers built by the French early, these bunkers were so loud that they were so loud that they were scared when they were shelled. At this moment, everyone's ears were still buzzing, and everyone was shouting at the top of their voices.

The firepower of the squad level was only one light machine gun. After inspecting the position, Zhang Zizhong immediately decided to lower the heavy machine gun to the bunkers, and the grenade launchers and mortars were used at the battalion level. The 6th Division had a total of 20 infantry battalions. Each battalion received a combat mission to guard twenty bunkers. After all, the bunkers were a circular building with a diameter of less than six meters. After stacking materials, at most one squad of troops would squeeze in. Fortunately, these bunkers were built around bunkers, so most of the troops and materials of each battalion were placed in the bunkers as core defenses. This place was much safer and more comfortable than the bunkers just built.

This bunker, which was organized into 184 by the division commander, was undoubtedly very lucky. In the crazy German artillery attack, except for three bunkers with bad luck that were repeatedly hit by German heavy artillery, the other more than 300 bunkers were standing there with great strength, and then the Germans who were waiting for their lives came into the tide.

As soldiers, the Germans are an existence worthy of respect for all enemies and friends. They strictly abide by discipline, they are loyal and brave, and they are fearless. Although the soldiers of the Expeditionary Force were fighting for the first time, they had undergone the most stringent and standardized training. The kind of enemy fired randomly outside the range did not happen. The German army approached the Chinese army's guarded positions almost in silence.

The German army is also a veteran of war-torn battles. If the Chinese army fired at it at this time, the German army would feel relaxed because such an opponent is generally not scary, but the Chinese army's position was quiet and the atmosphere seemed very depressing. The attacking German army quickly felt a kind of mental pressure.

100 meters, 80 meters, 60 meters, 50 meters,,,,,The distance is getting closer and closer, the gunshots are never heard, the German officers and soldiers begin to relax, perhaps the damn Chinese have been bombarded by cannons, but the commander of this German army, Colonel Effenberg, would not see this way, he felt the danger approaching, 16 years ago, Lieutenant Effenberg, who was only twenty-two years old, had followed the Eight-Nation Alliance into Beijing. At that time, the Chinese felt that it was vulnerable, but then he was ordered After carrying out the tasks assigned by Marshal Wadesi, he randomly captured a hundred Chinese men at Xizhimen in Beijing for physical examinations according to the recruitment standards of the German Army. As a result, these stupid Chinese people gave him a surprise result. Ninety-five of the 100 people met the standards. At this time, the German army ordered to pursue the Qing army to Shanxi was defeated by the Qing army. Marshal Wadesi came to a conclusion that the physiology of the Chinese people was very healthy, and the unhealthy one was their system and leadership.

Effenberg still remembers this clearly. He doesn't believe that the Chinese people opposite will be destroyed by cannons.
