The sergeant''s canteen was empty, and there was a final record on the mirror next to the fireplace, which was scribbled by the cook before he left——

    [about to start, never Cancel]

    Unfortunately, it backfired.

    At two o''clock in the morning, the soldiers of the first paratrooper brigade had not yet taken off. They sat in the designated area and listened to the instructions of the officers in charge: "under the cover of night, thousands of bombers had the opportunity to bombard the operation area, so as to ensure that the enemy''s air defense positions would not pose a threat to the airborne troops, and we would start at 11 a.m. and arrive near Arnhem at about 1 p.m."

    "From now on, all of you start studying sand table maps and reconnaissance photos until you can draw a map of the target area alone!"

    The noise rang out.

    An hour ago, the soldiers were told that the airborne mission was about to begin. As a result, when they came to the airport, only the bombers took off, and they had to stay here and wait, and were asked to forcibly remember some landmark buildings.

    However, these have nothing to do with Lu Li, because he is going to start now!

    Parachute signalman, a high-risk occupation.

    In each airborne operation, these people will land first and then arrive at the predetermined area to mark the landing area and airdrop site 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 to perform guidance tasks.

    In fact, this is not in line with historical facts.

    On the night before the crossing, Lu Li checked a lot of information and inadvertently turned to an action timetable.

    The leading troops of the first airborne division took off first at 10:25 and headed for the Netherlands.

    However, this time was advanced by eight hours!

    At this moment, in addition to the omnipotent headmaster, Lu Li really can''t imagine who can do things so absolutely.

    Presumably at this time, all the candidates who came through encountered a similar situation.

    "Man, let''s go."

    Big miller can''t wait. He feels it''s a great honor to be the first batch of landing personnel as a guide.

    So, without waiting for Lu Li''s answer, he pulled it into the cabin.

    Then, six C-47 transport planes took off one after another at an interval of five to 20 seconds. They will leave their base in Lincolnshire and fly forward over the alderberg coast.

    Three thirty in the morning.

    In the dim cabin, the red light kept flashing.

    Soldiers who took anti dizziness tablets in advance had different degrees of reactions. Some had dry throats and others had difficulty swallowing. Therefore, they closed their eyes and tried to alleviate their discomfort.

    However, Lu Li didn''t take airsickness medicine because he was too anxious to take medicine.

    Frankly speaking, this is his first time to take a plane, and it is still this old military plane. The whole process is painful and his viscera are suffering. Fortunately, the dinner has been digested, otherwise, he will definitely vomit all over his body.

    Not only that, how to do parachuting in a few hours is also something Lu Li needs to consider.

    After all, jumping from a height of hundreds of meters requires not only a test of the heart, but also superb skills. Otherwise, it will become disabled, not to mention the pain, but also affect the operation.

    Although in his memory, he received the most professional training, but everything has never been practiced, and it is not normal if he is not flustered.

    "Man, there''s something wrong with you tonight. What happened?"

    Miller came up again.

    During this time, he has been paying attention to Lu Li. Seeing his absent-minded appearance, he is even more worried that platoon a will bear great responsibility, but the sergeant leading the team is not in a state, which is definitely a disaster.

    Lu Li also noticed that many soldiers were watching him, so he waved his hand, pretended to be calm and said, "nothing, just some airsickness..."

    "Grass!"

    Before they finished, a suction came from the hatch. No one knew what was wrong. They ignored everything and clung to the handrail.

    Before long, Lu Li''s ear suddenly heard a cry: "monitor, help me!"

    In the strong wind, he narrowed his eyes to find the source of the sound.

    It was private Francis monk. He sat near the cargo hatch. As a result, when the hatch bounced open for unknown reasons, the power of the air almost sucked him out.

    In fact, half of this guy''s body has gone out and no rescue is carried out. As a result, only one is forced to land on the sea and wait for death, or pray for a miracle.

    In hesitation, Munk''s right hand was out of the handle, his backpack was blown open, and a lot of money flew out of it. All these were tens of thousands of money he won from his companions four hours ago.

    Now, he can only hope on his left hand, the rope that sustains life, and his companions. The person closest to monk is Lu Li, about three positions apart.

    "Let go and open the umbrella bag at 250 meters according to the requirements of normal training."

    "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 shouted. He thought it was the most rational way, and everyone would understand.

    At the same time, a strong airflow hit, turning everything in the cabin up.

    Lu Li floated in mid air, clutching his hand and climbing towards the hatch, scolded: "dog day, you were playing cards with yangshou before! Give me your left hand, come on!"

    Perhaps because he didn''t want to feed the shark, or because he didn''t want to be caught by the dark tide, monk slowly released his left hand, from his little thumb to his ring finger and then to his middle finger, and his body tried to lean forward.

    He is gambling that the traction rope has enough tension and that Lu Li can catch himself in time.

    Almost at the same time, the co pilot, Sergeant bill oaks, looked back to see how his passengers were.

    To his horror, a paratrooper was about to fly out of the cabin, and the sergeant sitting nearby was trying to rescue him——

    That''s almost impossible unless you''re strong enough and the timing is accurate enough.

    "Sergeant, you still have ten seconds!"

    Bill roared loudly. He didn''t have time to explain why. After that, he forced himself to focus on the dashboard.

    "Let go, trust me..."

    At this time, Lu Li, who climbed to the edge of the hatch, also roared.

    However, before he got a response, he saw Munk''s hand leave completely.

    Almost subconsciously, he leaned forward again and grabbed half of his palm, while Miller pulled the traction rope at some point.

    The two men tried hard at the same time. They only felt something dragging them down. Then, someone pulled them both behind. The sense of falling disappeared, and monk returned to the cabin.

    The pilot made a graceful somersault and the hatch slammed shut again.
