Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 17: Go forward


  "Okay, don’t swear, you have sent it twice, I believe you have this ability. Oh, how long do you want to talk here, we are very tight now, I have not talked to other officers Say hello."

   Muller touched his cheek and smiled embarrassedly. He first nodded and said hello to Hans and the others. Then I introduced the group of officers behind him to Xu Jun. Many of these people knew Xu Jun. Mueller didn’t need to spend that much saliva, but these officers have been assigned new positions, so I must tell Xu Jun. The Jun report made it clear that some of them had been transferred or promoted from other troops in the past two days, and Xu Jun was not very familiar with them either.

  "This is Feng, Colonel Stockhausen, the commander of the "Greater Germany" Mechanized Infantry Regiment. They met with us the night before you left. Now we are all familiar with each other. "The loss of the regiment was almost zero, but the headquarters still added some additional soldiers to them. Now the strength is completely superior to other mechanized infantry regiments."

   Feng, Stockhausen stepped forward and nodded elegantly. This is an old officer in his fifties who maintains an elegant aristocratic temperament and a neat military style.

   "Ah! It's Oberst. I'm so happy to see you. There are five in Berlin... I haven't seen you in four months. How are you now?" Xu Jun found in his memory With the information of this old commander, Jack knew him when the "Greater German" regiment was founded. Xu Jun is now in touch with Feng and Stockhausen with a smile on his face.

   "Hehe, thank you for your concern, I am fine now. My Deputy Head of State, you are still so energetic. Being able to fight under your command is the glory of the "Germany" regiment!" Xu Jun and this The old guy looked at each other and laughed.

  "This is the new commander of the 25th Armored Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Halong. He was originally the first battalion commander of the 25th Armored Regiment. After Colonel Luxembourg was transferred last night, he is now the commander of the regiment. He is a master commander of armored forces, and all soldiers in the 25th armored regiment support him."

   Xu Jun looked at the officer in front of him. He looked only thirty years old. He was very handsome and handsome. He was wearing a special armored uniform with a second grade iron ten medal on his chest. The tank assault medal and the war-wound medal, the booties were spotlessly cleaned, and they seemed to be shrewd and dry.

   "Congratulations, Lieutenant Colonel Halong, I will rely on you for armored operations in the future."

   "Thank you very much for the promotion, I will work hard."

   is clean and neat, Xu Jun feels very happy that he has such a subordinate. Although Luxembourg is capable, he is an old man under Rommel. It may be difficult for him to control him. Just in case, he was simply transferred to Kleist to serve as a staff member, so that he can support his own strength. There is no need to be said to suppress the elderly by others.

  "This is Second Lieutenant Sanders of the 38th Armored Reconnaissance Battalion. He is now the acting battalion commander of that battalion. The 38th Armored Battalion suffered heavy losses, although the Group Army Command dispatched many soldiers and armored vehicles to it. Supplements have been made, but the new and old soldiers and officers have not yet completely adjusted in. The 38th Armored Reconnaissance Battalion cannot be restored to its previous state in a short period of time."

   Xu Jun nodded, smiled and said to the young ensign: "I remember that you are the only surviving officer of that battalion. I hope you can use all your strength in your post. Keep the honor of the armored reconnaissance battalion. Don’t let your old bosses and comrades in arms sacrifice in vain."

   "Oh, General, I will not let their blood flow in vain. The 38th Armored Reconnaissance Battalion will always be the most reliable eye of the 7th Armored Division!" Sanders replied excitedly, his eyes started Tears flickered. Xu Jun nodded approvingly and patted his shoulder.

  "This is Major Dagues, the current regiment of the 7th Infantry Regiment. He was originally my deputy battalion commander. When in Arras, he was in charge of the defense of the right wing. You met him and started fighting. He is a good hand. Now I appoint him as the commander of the seventh regiment. Although the seventh regiment has suffered a great loss, it is now fully staffed after being replenished. All the veterans who have been assigned are now fully recovered. Combat effectiveness. The same is true for the Sixth Infantry Regiment. He is still under my personal command and will serve as your direct guard in the Seventh Armored Division. I hope you will continue to believe in these soldiers."

   "Why? Of course, I have unconditional trust in my soldiers. The perseverance of the Sixth Regiment has already impressed me a long time ago. I am very satisfied with your arrangement." Then Xu Jun Congratulations by shaking hands with Dags. The rest are battalion company-level officers. They have all been promoted to the first-level military ranks like the previous ones, and now they all look at Ze Xu Jun with gratitude and admiration.

   Just as Xu Jun and the officers greeted each other lively, the other JU52s had already stopped slowly, and the group of staff officers and secretaries walked down with their luggage. The plane came over to Xu Jun and his group.

   Xu Jun introduced several division-level and regiment-level senior commanders here to the staff of the Army Command and Combat Bureau, and let them get familiar with the others.

   Then Xu Jun said to Mueller: "Mueller, you have already received my order."

   "Yes, General."

   "So when can the troops leave?"

  "Basically, everything is ready. As long as you pack it up, you can go right away. You have to load the command equipment and headquarters supplies into the car. It should be ready within half an hour, General."

   Xu Jun nodded, he turned his head and said to Hans.

   "Hans, go and make sure that the other two troops can join us on time."

  "General, I have confirmed on the plane earlier. They have already set off last night. Although they are infantry divisions, they should be able to arrive at the meeting place on time according to their current speed."

   "Oh, great, but you have to send another telegram to remind them that you must act strictly according to the schedule and be sure to arrive on time."

   "Understand, General."

   Hans led a staff officer toward the advanced communications company that was busy carrying communications equipment down the plane. Xu Jun turned his head and said to the group of officers.

  " Gentlemen, you all read the command of the command last night. I believe you already know that time is very tight now. So now please put aside those high-sounding things. Let’s start immediately. Command The officers immediately returned to their troops and ordered the soldiers to prepare within half an hour, and all personnel were in their positions. After half an hour, we will set off for the meeting point. Now, gentlemen, act."

   Then Xu Jun saluted the officers seriously. No one thought that Xu Jun immediately issued an order to start as soon as he arrived. But when they saw Xu Jun's stern face, they knew they were playing for real. The officers knew that time was tight, but they didn't expect that the urgency would be like this, and Xu Jun didn't even have time to take a break in the house and drink some water. They hurriedly stood at attention to return the gift.

   "Yes, Lord General."

   The officers rushed towards their troops one by one.

  The soldiers neatly lined up at the airport also heard their commander’s order, and they rushed towards their tents. The whole camp instantly became like a boiling kettle, noisy and steaming.

   Half an hour later, all the troops were ready to go. The roar of trucks and tanks was deafening, and the cyan exhaust from the engine filled the entire camp.

   Xu Jun stood in front of his Type 251 half-track armored command vehicle, looking at his majestic troops, feeling unspeakable excitement. This is my own army. I will rely on this steel force to realize my ideals and ambitions. Although the road ahead is full of obstacles and dangers, Xu Jun firmly believes that he will lead this force to the ultimate victory. He and him The army will be invincible.

   "You can set off~IndoMTL.com~ Colonel Muller!" Xu Jun gave orders to Muller.

   "Yes, Lord General."

   Mueller answered immediately, and then he turned and ran to his command car without looking back.

   Muller protruded half of his body from the turret of his 221 wheeled armored command vehicle, raised his hand at the huge convoy, and shouted into the microphone on the headset: "German Army, go ahead! "After finishing speaking, he waved his raised hands vigorously forward.

   "Go!"

   "Go!"

   The commanders of each unit simultaneously issued the order to start.

  The engines of the armored vehicles of the 38th Armored Reconnaissance Battalion spewed out thick blue smoke at the same time, and then rushed toward the dirt road ahead.

   The second set off after the 38th Armored Reconnaissance Battalion is the 7th Infantry Regiment. They are now almost turned into a mechanized infantry regiment. The Army Command really gave Xu Jun a lot of face. Off-road trucks and half-track personnel carriers were added to the 7th Armored Division. Now those infantrymen are almost all on mechanized transportation, no longer have to resist heavy backpacks and rifles to march on foot under the scorching sun. The morale of the soldiers has become unparalleled.

   Now those soldiers are full of gratitude and admiration for Xu Jun, in order to show their infinite loyalty to General Reinhard von Steide, whom they love and admire, and in order to wash away those who have been hit hard by the enemy. Shame, in order to regain the glory of the 7th Infantry Regiment, they vowed to tear all enemies in front of them to pieces and step into the hard ground.
