Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 15: The troubles of Rondestedt

　　The distant water cannot save the near fire. Admiral Hans Reinhardt sent a telegram saying that his troops would not be able to reach the 7th Armored Division until the next afternoon.

　　 Ron Destedt sat in his office worrying about the map. Suddenly a staff officer rushed in excitedly with a telegram in his hand.

　　"General, the emergency call of the 7th Armored Division."

　　 Ron Destedt quickly grabbed the telegram, and was immediately taken aback.

　　 The first surprise was that Rommel was killed. The 7th Armored Division lost the entire headquarters and the troops were divided into two parts. The second surprise was that the deputy head was safe and took over the command of the 7th Armored Division. Repelled the British attack, not only eliminated many enemies, but also captured seven tanks.

　　 When will the "genius" kid who can only talk about it go to war? Rondstedt was puzzled.

　　 He still remembers that Reinhard von Steid’s military academy results were terrible. At that time, Guderian had read his paper and secretly told himself if Reinhardt should be treated. Feng. The kid that Stade sent to the battlefield can kill himself and a division in an hour.

　　 And the deputy head of the Third Reich was a little self-aware, even when he was most proud of it, he did not ask to personally command any combat troops.

　　 And he has always cared for the Army, becoming the most important representative of the Army fighting for military expenses and supplies from Green’s mouth. I heard that he grabbed the budget and was afraid of seeing Green. He claimed to be The number one evil dog in the Imperial Cabinet. Already in the Cabinet has a nickname called "Cyprus", which means three-headed dog of hell.

　　 Therefore, the Army would rather lose a group of generals than this young brigadier general, and has always confessed him well in the General Staff.

　　 What I did not expect is that this deputy head of state, who has been deemed by all generals to have no military ability, can command an infantry unit of more than 1,000 people to withstand the attack of a brigade equipped with tanks of the British and give the opponent Harmful. If the Army Command learned of this news, the floor must have been covered with spectacle lenses.

　　 He now asks Base Camp to give him the appointment to formally command the 7th Armored Division. The boy also requested in the telegram that the command of the "Greater Germany" regiment should be handed over to him, and he had to contact the Third Air Force of the Air Force immediately and ask the Air Force to provide him with air and ground support the next day. Rondstedt looked at the telegram and was puzzled. What did the kid want to do?

　　 Don't care about him, just make the deputy head happy, stay there honestly and wait for rescue, and give him what he wants. The appointment of the base camp is only a superficial article, anyway, he is the deputy head of state, whatever he says will do. To give him the "Greater Germany" regiment, he has to talk to Kleist. The air force can also be mobilized through the base camp. They have to inform them about the kid. Rondstedt quickly picked up the phone to arrange.

　　 Xu Jun explained his plan to his subordinates in detail, arranged the tasks of everyone, explained the precautions, and left the officers there to continue discussing the plan and some technical details. People slowly walked out of the shelter.

　　 The summer night in France is really beautiful. Xu Jun looked at the stars in the sky and thought of his hometown.

　　 "The pollution in Shanghai is too serious. I have never seen such stars there once since I was a child. But the night here is really cold."

　　 Xu Jun rubbed his shoulders, fastened the style button on the collar of the uniform, and then slowly walked towards the trench where the soldiers rested.

　　The German soldiers have recovered from the state of excitement after the victory. Everyone was exhausted by the series of battles during the day. Now I relax after eating a steaming dinner~IndoMTL.com~All the fatigue is released, so except for a part of the soldiers on guard, most of them went to sleep with rifles wrapped in military blankets.

　　 Xu Jun walked over slowly. A sentry saw Xu Jun approaching and was stopped by Xu Jun just as he wanted to say hello. Xu Jun shook his hand and pointed to the sleeping soldiers beside him. The sentry looked around, and immediately stood up to Xu Jun gently, his eyes filled with reverence, and he nodded in greeting.

　　 Xu Jun walked gently in front of the sentry, patted the sentry’s shoulder, and said in the sentry’s ear: "You are doing a good job, soldier, continue your duties, don’t disturb others, everyone is very tired ."

　　 "Yes, Lord General."

　　 The sentry tried to control his excitement, and answered in a low voice. Xu Jun nodded to the sentinel, and then gently walked towards the fire on the other side of the trench.

　　 It seems that there was originally a French artillery position or a front-line command post. The trench suddenly widened here, forming a square space of more than ten square meters.

　　 The soldiers lit a bonfire there. The sentinels who were laid off or waiting to be put on guard rested around the fire. The warm light and the peaceful expressions of the soldiers made people not at all on the battlefield. On the feeling.

　　 There seemed to be more than 20 people there, and some soldiers were asleep with their heads toward the trench wall. Others are looking at newspapers and books from unknown sources or writing letters from home by the fire. A dozen young soldiers were surrounding an old sergeant who seemed to be in his fifties, listening intently to what the old sergeant was saying.
