Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 420: Military Observer (Part 1)


"In view of the content stated in the previous report, I hope that the command will consider increasing the number of Type A products in the next replenishment. Personal suggestions can squeeze out part of the food quota. In fact, there is no shortage of food here. People here What is lacking is advanced weapons, professional training and discipline constraints."

Lieutenant Colt Bart finished typing the last letter in the report and sat there in silence for a while, then released the reel of the typewriter and took out the manuscript paper. After reading it carefully, there was nothing missing, so Bart folded the report and stuffed it into a special kraft paper envelope.

The lieutenant carefully melted a piece of lacquer, burned a seal on the edge of the seal, then took off the ring on his left middle finger, and put a personal mark on the seal.

This report will be sent to Ioannina by light liaison planes that take off and land every night together with the reports of several other observation team members (there are also marked as Ioannina, which is actually a place) , And then from the communication center there, according to different levels and types, to the units and departments to which the observers belong, and in order to prevent confusion caused by overlapping information or conflicting content, it will be handed over to professional intelligence analysis before sending Personnel conduct preliminary screening and review.

It may seem like a very complicated program, but in fact it can improve the efficiency of a lot of work. It is equivalent to opening a dedicated channel, bypassing the misjudgment and delay that the original bureaucratic system may cause, and avoiding many Unnecessary losses.

Don’t underestimate the stupidity of the German bureaucracy at any time. Fortunately for Barthes, he doesn’t need to wait for painful lessons like his colleagues to comprehend this, because most of his relatives in the family are bureaucrats. The service in the system, he has seen the tricks here since he was a child.

Lieutenant Bart packed the letter into the map bag, carried the small typewriter into the storage suitcase, tightened the strap and locked the lock. This small typewriter was a gift from Bart’s father on his eighteenth birthday. It is the second most precious treasure in the heart of the German lieutenant. It is second only to the Knight’s Cross at the neckline, no matter how it is executed. As long as circumstances permit, he will carry this typewriter with him to record all the memorable things he has seen and heard.

Someone was knocking on the door outside, and the German lieutenant hurriedly lifted the army blanket on the bed, covering the materials and personal belongings scattered on the bed.

"Please come in." Bart adjusted his collar and replied loudly.

"Hey, Bart, I know you haven't rested yet." Lieutenant Eugene Weber, another 6th Army officer of the observation group, pushed open the door, holding one of his hands firmly with food. The other is carrying a bottle of local specialty ouzo.

"Come in, Webber, I just finished writing today's report." Bart gathered the clutter on the table into a pile and carried it to the camp bed.

"You are a serious and responsible guy, the staff should give you a medal for this." Weber put the food and wine on the table, and put the tray on the side of the window sill.

"Your work is done?" Bart handed a military aluminum cup to his colleagues.

"This is not an interrogation at all. To be honest, the whole thing made me feel sick. Now I just want to get myself drunk and completely forget the things I just saw." Lieutenant Weber took off his combat hat and put it down. On hand, the silver edelweiss badge on the brim side was shining under the kerosene lamp.

"It’s not so much that the interrogation is over, it’s better to say that they are tired of this dirty game. You were there during the day and you saw it with your own eyes. Tell you, compared with the things just born, the Italians during the day What happened to the captives is not worth mentioning. Do you know what I have been thinking about just now? If we are going to fight these people, we must not let ourselves fall into their hands alive. In other words, I would rather commit suicide than do them. People who surrender can at least die with more dignity."

Bart knew that Webber was obviously stimulated by something, otherwise it would be hard to imagine this brave mountain infantry would say such a thing.

Weber poured half a cup of ouzo in that large aluminum cup, then raised his head and gurgled two sips. After putting down the cup, he burped heavily.

"It's not right. These people don't even let go of the corpse. They cut off the poor Italian corporal's **** and stuffed them into the corpse's mouth. These guys thought it was funny." Webber stretched out his hand. I took the bottle and poured another half glass of ouzo.

"I know you are disgusted with this kind of thing, but you have to be clear that they are not Germans, not even regular soldiers. They are just ordinary civilians with weapons. Many of these people have not been born since birth. After leaving this land, they just follow the traditions left by their ancestors to punish the thieves who invaded their homes, so you can’t use our standards to measure the behavior of these people.” Bart snatched the bottle from Weber and comforted him. This upright compatriot.

From the very beginning, the German dollar did not intend to directly use force to support Greece. In his opinion, Greece has no saving value at all. This is not the Greek city-state that created the Mediterranean civilization for a long time. It has been changed. If it were not for the one-time solution to this hidden danger in Italy, Xu Jun could put the matter high and watch the show with crossed hands. Because according to the original historical exhibition, if no other powers intervened in this war, these two weak chickens could be pinched until the sky grew old.

In history, the British intervened, not only giving Greece a large number of weapons and ammunition, but also providing the most important air support. Even if the Royal Air Force deployed in the Mediterranean theater are all second-rate troops, it is enough to beat the Italian third-rate air force. Get six bodies on the ground.

Although the British have been defeated at the moment, the air force he originally deployed in Greece has not withdrawn from those air bases. What's more, these forces have been strengthened and supplemented. From the moment of receiving intelligence from Germany, the British The Royal Air Force worked hard to complete the promise they had made before, and the Greek sky would be guarded by the British.

The Royal Air Force has a large number of Spitfire and Hurricane fighters waiting to be repaired in the local repair shop. The intrepid technicians used scrap aircraft parts to piece together, and let them make up a fighter wing. , A Spitfire squadron plus two Hurricane squadrons, a total of 72 fighters, were safely delivered to a Greek port just one week before Italy invaded Greece.

At the same time, a large number of infantry weapons and equipment were sent. Because the sources of weapons of the Greek army were messy, Germany inquired about all the old-fashioned arsenals in the control area, and asked them to find a large number of guns and equipment suitable for the Greeks. ammunition.

Historically, the British were also worried about this problem~IndoMTL.com~ They could not get the bullets for the Manlysia rifle, and it was impossible to open a production line for the Greeks. Unexpectedly, the Italians helped solve this problem. The Italian African Army died in North Africa, but was beaten severely by the British. The British seized a large number of Italian Manlicia-Carcano rifles and their accessories. Although the Italian shell is two millimeters shorter than the Greek Manlysia-Schoenauer bullet, it does not affect normal use at all.

History has now changed. The Italian field group is squatting honestly in Libya and has never dared to move. The British cannot find this opportunity if they want to capture it.

Finally, the Germans are now on the side of Greece. The problem becomes simpler here. The Austrian production plants are now in German hands. The old ammunition stockpiled in various arsenals is enough for the Greeks to splurge. Last year or two.

In addition to supporting weapons and ammunition, Germany also sent a group of military observers to the Greeks. Another role is military advisors. They will teach the Greeks how to fight a real modern war.

For Germans, Greeks are very fond of them, because the trade with Germany was very close before. There are many industrial products labeled in German on the Greek market. Especially after the war, the German mark changed here. It's stronger than the pound.
