Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 178: The soldiers come to London

"Tank! Go ahead!" Major Martin Heisler quickly swung his arms up and down, indicating that his battalion company could start an attack.

"Sir! The supply you requested is already on the way. The regiment commander, please take care to protect the supply lines on the two wings." The battalion communications staff quickly ran to the tank and reported to the battalion commander. He will talk to the logistics unit and the battalion. The communication office remains at the assembly point.

"Understood, tell the commander that we are assault troops. These problems should be solved by the infantry." Major Heisler turned his head and shouted, "Go forward! Go forward! Soldiers!" ! We are going to beat up the British!"

This is the vanguard of the 3rd Armored Regiment of the 2nd Armored Division. As new recruits who have just landed ashore, they are full of desire for battle, and the morale of the whole army is like a rainbow. The first commander of the 2nd Armored Division is now Lieutenant General Guderian, the commander-in-chief of the armored forces of Group E. He was also fortunate to belong to the old commander in the French campaign. He once forced the Maas River under the command of Guderian. It has also created a miracle in the history of war of 700 kilometers in 48 hours.

The second battalion of the 3rd Armored Regiment was outstanding, but this time it was not placed in the first echelon of the landing, because the troops have not been fully refitted, most of the battalion used is still the standard used in the French battlefield. equipment.

Major Heisler personally commanded the battalion team of the 2nd Battalion, which is a fully loaded 39-year-old light armored company. Different from the historical standard, the superiors finally gave up and replaced the No. 1 command tank used by all the armored battalion commanders, which made the whole battalion relieved.

The original No. 1 command tank has weak armor, and it has a square-headed and square-headed foolish appearance. The fixed car body only has a machine gun, which attracts attention on the battlefield. This is simply letting the commander squat in a cardboard box with a big bullseye to direct the operations of the whole battalion. Any shelling of the battalion will make the whole battalion frightened. The battalion commander can be regarded as Hong Fuqi. day. This time the shotgun was finally changed. The battalion commander and battalion lieutenant were all seated on the brand-new No. 3 command tank, and the survivability of the command system on the battlefield was finally guaranteed.

This tank is modified on the basis of the basic model No. 3, and the German army is also different because of the installation of communication equipment. Three equipment numbers were given to the same car. As the command core of an armored unit, this tank is equipped with two command radios, which can communicate with the superior command or issue commands directly to the bicycle.

In order to make room for communication equipment, the command tank welded the turret seat and removed the main weapon. Only a wooden fake gun was installed as a camouflage in the position where the main gun was originally installed. It is exactly the same as the ordinary No. 3 tank in terms of appearance and maneuverability, avoiding targeted attacks by the command organization of the armored force identified by the enemy. .

Now the German tank battalion commander is standing on the turret of the command vehicle with ambition. This commander is in the most glorious moment since he joined the army. He will be the first German Wehrmacht officer to lead troops into the British capital. The military history of the German army.

"Everyone! We once fought **** battles on the Polish plains together. We also tasted the wine of victory in Dunkirk together. Now, in front of us is the heart of Germany's most powerful enemy. I hope you will join me Together, fighting loyally and courageously, we will surely win. This time, we will sing the triumph of the German Wehrmacht on the square of Buckingham Palace in London." Heisler held a radio microphone and launched a battle against his men. Before mobilization.

In fact, he doesn’t have to do this at all, because everyone knows what they’re going to do. What a historic moment for Germany, if they can complete this mission, everyone will become the great heroes in the books when they were young.

The Second Armored Division became the assault spearhead to complete the London encirclement, and this incident was entirely accidental. In the beginning, this force was given the mission to outflank Maidstone from the south, and cooperate with Manstein’s Cyprus to take down the last large town in the south of the London capital circle and open it up for this terrible three-headed dog. Rush to the gate of London.

In the past three days, the German troops have suffered due to the bad weather. Of course, the British will not feel any good. The Germans finally made some material preparations before, but the UK can only rely on some of the remaining capital in the warehouse. Struggling in adversity.

The British have clarified their attitude to the Germans with actual performance. These Anglo people will never succumb if they suffer from a bit of hardship.

London finally couldn't cover the lid, at 7pm on the 23rd. Churchill gave a radio speech on London radio to announce to the outside world the terrible situation facing the British Empire. The Germans deceived Dover's defenders by trickery. They launched a despicable sneak attack, although the British officers and soldiers stationed in Dover Fight life and death without fear, but under the overwhelming advantage of the enemy. In the end, it was unable to withstand the attacks of powerful and evil enemies. The Dover area had fallen, and the evil iron boots of the Germans had now set foot on English territory.

Churchill called on all the British to unite immediately and launch a resolute resistance against the invaders. He announced that from the moment the order was issued, he would inherit the power granted to him by His Majesty the King of the British Empire. He would have the right to command all the British Empire and overseas The armed forces of the three armed forces of the colonies and the member states of the Commonwealth of the British Empire, and all the people on the territory of the Empire, whether British or foreigners, must unreservedly obey the orders of the war cabinet he and his representatives represent. He vowed to London fought evil enemies to the last moment. He vowed that he would never consider making peace with the enemy, let alone surrendering to the invaders. He would lead this great country to fight until the last British or German on earth fell. , This war will really end.

It is hard to describe the reaction of the citizens of London and the diplomatic agencies of various countries in London when they heard this broadcast. It was roughly like a Vesuvius eruption in the city center.

London citizens never thought of the day when they would face the invaders directly. Although their school-age men were organized to receive infantry training from various community organizations, they were just walking in the community park with a wooden stick. queue.

In the evening, the government finally opened the warehouse, and community workers pushed the carts and began to distribute the reserved weapons to the citizens. These weapons had been stored in the secret weapons warehouse underground in the City of London, even at the moment when the Army lacked weapons. None are turned on.

These rifles, which have been sealed for more than ten years or even decades, have been issued to the citizens. The variety of rifles spans the year and is breathtaking. Some equipment can even be traced back to the Crimean War.

The citizens' self-defense team members who got the brown bass whose oil was hard to be as hard as a rock wanted to cry without tears. What are you going to do? Could it be that we wear red uniforms to stage a thin red line on the outskirts of London? Anyway, what about the matching bullets? Is it possible that you want to take advantage of the chance that the German soldiers are half-dead laughing and use this iron bar to come forward and end them? Then this strategy is really vicious.

The generation of young lads born after the war can be fearless because of ignorance, and those citizens in their forties and fifties who have experienced World War I know it well. What the last war was like, those old people knew very well that under the terrifying infantry heavy firepower and automatic weapons, the corpse mountains and blood sea can only be regarded as appetizers.

The citizens of London have always been harassed by German bombers. These Heinkel and Spitfires are buzzing overhead day and night. It is really annoying to say, but now Compared with the terrible German infantrymen, these disturbing flies above their heads have become indescribably cute. They haven't been seen for several days, so I miss them.

As time went on, the situation seemed to get worse and worse as the people expected. With the heavy rain that made people feel depressed at night, news of the disastrous defeat of the British troops began to come from various channels. These news vividly showed the tragic scene of the front line to the citizens. The brutal German army was armed to the teeth. These barbarians seemed to be painless and tireless, and were advancing inland non-stop throughout the night.

No matter how hard the brave British soldiers fight, they can only suffer miserable failures. These Germans are bloodthirsty lunatics. They only know how to complete the orders of their head of state, whether it is heavy rain or Cannonballs could not stop them. Thinking of meeting such a tough enemy face to face, I don’t know how many British families stayed up all night.

Starting from the next day~IndoMTL.com~In London and its surrounding areas, all factories and units except for military enterprises are closed. Workers and employees were organized and began to brave the rain to dig new trenches outside London. Everyone who took part in the work could get a 15p salary and a free lunch.

Starting from the early morning of the 24th, troops fleeing from the front have successively entered the surrounding towns of London. These soldiers often have empty hands, no officers to lead, no wounded and no baggage. They only have a drenched duffel uniform and a helmet used to cover the rain. If not for the ugly piece of steel, it still has this function. , Must have been abandoned like other things.

They are like walking corpses, walking in embarrassment on the streets of villages and towns, one by one, their eyes drifting and looking frustrated. Many people have been seriously frightened. You can see from the trembling bodies and fearful eyes of these people. After coming out, these soldiers have been abandoned. What they lost on the battlefield is not only their weapons, but also their glory and courage.
