Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 201: Cyprus assault (1)

The black shiny leather boots stepped on the terrazzo ground, and the iron soles clacked on the heels of the boots. Sterling Muller strode towards the headquarters of Bijinshan Air Force Base with a serious expression on his face. On the steps of the building. This building and a series of annexes around it have been completely preserved because the Cypriot Legion had planned to use it as the headquarters of the Legion during the Battle of London.

In order to implement the London campaign plan, the German army has assembled more than 15 divisions on the outskirts of the city, plus logistics and various subsidiary units. The total strength of the army alone is close to 200,000. . The Air Force directly transferred the two most elite fighter wings to nearby London, and these fierce vultures took this airspace into their pockets without much effort.

At present, the German Air Force Command is gathering the bomber wing in its hands, and their Stuka wing is moving back from the high speed in southern France. The two core wings of the Army Aviation Forces that are being formed have also been transferred to Calais, ready to test the success of the Führer’s tactical thinking in actual combat.

With such a large number of troops all concentrated in this 70-kilometer area, finding a suitable headquarters location has become a headache. A standard infantry division has more than 150 personnel in the headquarters, plus the units directly under the division and a bunch of subsidiary organizations, such as security, air defense, military supplies, ordnance, maintenance, health, communications, veterinarians, and engineers. , Military police, post office, these units are big battalion-level and small company-level, the mighty and mighty combined can occupy almost half of the town.

As a high-level military command unit’s stationing location, it’s not a casual thing. The chosen location should not only have convenient transportation, water and electricity, but also have enough open areas to park vehicles and stock up on supplies, and It must have a broad vision to facilitate air defense operations.

The outskirts of London is a large hilly area with dense settlements and numerous roads. Although the urban infrastructure is well done, it is convenient for people to live in and does not meet military needs. The original British barracks became the best choice, but there are only a few barracks after all. Compared with the huge number of German troops, it is really too much. But Cyprus does not have to worry about these issues at all. Keitel has already arranged everything for this head of state's direct line.

Cyprus, as a regiment directly under the head of state, is not only a good name. Like the Hydra Corps, it has become a symbol of power for the head of state. This army-level unit, which was originally a huge organization, is now even more powerful. In the later period of the French campaign, under the command of Manstein, this army continuously broke through several solid defense lines of the French army, and successively captured and annihilated the French army more than 200,000 people. The commander General Mueller participated as a representative of the German army. Parade of Paris entering the city.

The commander of the Legion, Major General Mueller, became famous in Germany because of the dramatic forced landing on the Champs Elysées. Like Rommel back then, it became another rising star in the German Army. Speaking of Rommel used to be Muller's immediate boss, but the starting point of this major general is much lower than Rommel. It can be said that his success depends on the full support of the head of state behind him.

Müller is also very self-aware, he can feel the pressure of the golden epaulettes on his shoulders, especially the jealous and hot eyes of the staff of the command. If he can't put in 100% effort and come up with the results that the world and his colleagues will affirm, he may not be able to erase the stigma of the "favored minister" of the head of state in his lifetime.

But Mueller also has his advantages. He is only in his thirties and has a lot of time and energy to prove his personal ability. He stepped past the ranks of school-level officers. In three months, he completed the journey that an ordinary officer could only complete in 20 years. This would of course attract jealousy and criticism, but he was confident that he would take the corresponding merits and silence everyone.

So far, Mueller’s performance really satisfies Xu Jun, and his character has also allowed him to get a lot of points in front of his colleagues. He does not see the slightest smug and domineering upstart atmosphere in him. There are only noble qualities such as courage, determination, justice, kindness, etc., in Weierle's words. Like a medieval Germanic knight, quite ancient.

However, his problem is similar to Hans, and his military level has become the biggest shortcoming. After all, he was just a battalion commander when he started, and he had not studied the basic course for advanced commanders. Weierle had an confession with Mueller before he played in England. After the battle was over, the Führer would transfer him to the Operation Department of the High Command.

Weirler told Mueller not to worry about this, because this transfer just means that the head of state has very high regard for him, and serving in the command is the easiest way for senior officers to gain qualifications. The experience of serving in the Operations Department of the Command Headquarters will be of great help to him in the future.

At the same time, Weierle also told Mueller that during his tenure in the Operations Department, he would be arranged to study at the Berlin Military Academy. He must complete the senior commander course so that he may be exposed to the command authority of the group army.

Müller strode forward on the third-floor corridor of the building, followed by his deputy staff officer and two guards. The Legion Command had just moved into the building. The corridor was full of commanders carrying documents and office supplies. Ministry officers and soldiers. Along the way, Muller kept returning Israeli military salutes to his men. After a long period of hard work, he has gained recognition and respect from all officers and soldiers.

"Is he right here?" Mueller stopped in front of a door at the top of the corridor. He turned his head and asked his adjutant.

"Yes, sir." The young lieutenant nodded affirmatively.

"Open the door." Mueller said to the guard armed with a gun at the door.

"It's ~IndoMTL.com~General." The guard pushed his chest out vigorously, then put down his rifle, took the key from his belt and unlocked the door.

"You are guarding outside, Heintje, you follow me." Mueller turned his head and said to the guard, and then he stepped forward and pushed open the tan-painted door.

It looks like this was originally an office, and the decoration is very simple, obviously not too high-level. The style of the British Royal Air Force is low-key luxury, because the funds are abundant, the pride of these days enjoys the same trend as the Royal Navy. Muller didn't know much about these fashionable luxury goods, he was only born in the middle class in Germany.

The major general of the German Army walked into the room, stood still, looked around the room for a while, and then directed his gaze to the object behind the desk in the room, a middle-aged man in the uniform of a British army general.

The plot has reached a critical moment. The Battle of England is about to come to an end. I am conceiving the final plot. I want to describe the collapse of an empire capital.
