Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 209: Occupation (2)

Although the German armored forces are invincible, when it comes to occupying cities, the infantry forces are the main force. In the infantry cluster currently participating in the Battle of London, all five infantry divisions have entered the city of London. The remaining infantry divisions are all on standby. Commanders at all levels are ready to respond to emergencies. Once the city appears The accident can immediately support the occupying forces stationed in the city.

At this moment, most of the citizens of London choose to hide in their homes and watch. There are many rumors on the market during this period, and every communicator is plausible, making people wonder which one to trust. So before the current situation is completely clear, it is better to stay at home and be careful.

Because the German army did not send out a large-scale air bombing during the battle, the battle was only concentrated in a few core areas, and most of the residential blocks were not affected. The military did not sound the air raid alarm, so most people decided to stay in their houses instead of going to the crowded air raid shelters to breathe the muddy air with the sloppy refugees.

After more than 20 years of hard work, many large-scale air defense bunkers have been built in the city of London, but for this huge capital with 8 million permanent residents, this amount cannot meet even the most basic needs. .

In the early days of the war, when the air raid sirens sounded, the air raid shelters would be crowded with people who came to take refuge. Citizens of various classes and identities crowded in the same tunnel or cave all night, hundreds of thousands People eat and drink in it, and the smell in these places soon becomes suffocating. At the same time, because the people’s identities are uneven, there are always black sheep who fish in troubled waters, causing a series of public security problems, and because it is too crowded, the guards There is nothing we can do about these crimes. As a result, many citizens would rather stay at home and be exposed to a German bomb than take their families into the dirty, messy, hot and smelly hell.

The British government has been encouraging Londoners to dig trenches in their backyards because the capacity of the city’s civil air defense works is so limited that it cannot protect everyone. However, this method can only disperse people in some suburban neighborhoods, and not every household can have a backyard. Most of the residents in the urban area live in large apartments, and they can still only escape into the government air defense facilities. Therefore, the problem of congestion remains the same, and there is no slight relief.

Start in the morning. Under the guidance of British collaborators, the German infantry entered the underground labyrinth of London. The task of these soldiers was to search for and expel civilians hiding in tunnels and tunnels, as well as the broken British soldiers.

To completely occupy a city of this size, this is the first experience for the German army. Several commanders of the e-army group had no similar experience before, let alone let them come up with a mature plan.

Although the German army had occupied some European capitals before. But neither the size of the city nor the population of residents can compare to London. Paris, France, is on the same level as London, and perhaps it can be said to be superior to it, but the fall of Paris and London is completely different, and there is no comparison at all.

Paris was declared an undefended city at that time. The French army surrendered to the German army and entered the city without leaving a drop of blood. Moreover, the entire city system of Paris is complete, and the government operates smoothly. There are a large number of local officials cooperating with the German army. What a brain. As long as the request is made, the French will immediately arrange everything.

But the British are totally different. Their political system and ruling model are completely different from those of European countries. The difference is almost as if they are in two dimensions. Until now, Bock and Rondstede have not understood the mode of operation of the city. They can only order soldiers to occupy the key facilities of the city according to the practice in European battlefields. What should be done next, these two Still have no clue.

The British political bureaucracy is too complicated, and it seems to the two Germans to be a mess. In fact, this is the result of hundreds of years of political struggle among various power factions in the UK. The big figures occupying the pinnacle of power compromised and restricted each other. Eventually formed the British government system.

In order to expand the power and plant partisans, the bureaucracy is superimposed on layers, and outsiders seem to be trying to make the division of labor clear. In fact, they are raising a large number of redundant bureaucrats with public money. These low-level bureaucrats have become their tentacles for intervening in practice while serving as the eyeliner of the big figures. For hundreds of years, the British political aristocracy has been relying on this method. Manipulating this empire, democracy and justice are slogans used to numb ignorant civilians.

Now. Bok and Rondstede were finally released, and the wise and great head of state sent angels. . . . The special envoy is fully responsible for the British occupation issue, including the restoration of the British government. The two commanders of the group army did not hesitate to say that everything is subject to the arrangement of the lieutenant general. They are very happy that someone can carry this cauldron for them.

"This is an ancient and vibrant empire. Their people are full of identity and pride in their country and nation. Although their morale has been hit hard, don’t expect them to be so easy Acknowledge the failure." Weirler stood in the conference room of the British War Department building, behind which hung a huge map of the whole of Britain and a map of the city of London.

This building has now been branded as the occupying army headquarters in London, Germany, and has also become a temporary stationing point for the headquarters of the e-group army.

"I have the same feeling about this. The British are not that simple, Weiller." Von Bok held a red and blue pencil, hunched his chin and looked at a map of southern England on the desktop with a picture on it. Lots of arrows, each one represents the actions of a military-level unit.

"We must not waste too much time in this city. There are already signs of a large-scale build-up of troops in Scotland. We must immediately make a response plan. I will make recommendations to the high command and start the offensive in northern England immediately As for the combat plan of action, General Lundstede must also agree with me."

"Yes, I agree with you, General Bock, and our supplies are consumed very quickly. This war cannot be postponed indefinitely. We have to pay millions of marks every day, especially Now that the follow-up troops are still continuously on the island, the pressure on our logistics supplies will increase exponentially.

I suggest that if the problem in the UK cannot be resolved within a week, I would ask the High Command to agree to our proposal and launch a group-scale blitzkrieg against northern Britain. "Londerstede has always regretted not squeezing into the landing starting lineup, but the name of the Scottish Conqueror sounds good, he personally likes it very much.

"You can make these suggestions to the command by yourselves, if the head of state and colleagues in the command agree. I personally think there is no problem. I am also very troubled by the current situation. So I decided to divide the problem into several The steps are resolved, but this requires the cooperation of the command of the group army group." Weierle stood at the table and looked at the command of the two group armies sitting on both sides.

"We will fully cooperate with your work, Weierle. Don't worry about this. I will arrange a liaison adjutant to follow you. You can mobilize any unit in the group army without my approval. "Bock generously expressed his full support, and the opportunity to please Weierle is a rare opportunity.

"Me too. Weierle, my troops are always subject to your mobilization, and I will also arrange a liaison officer to assist you in your work." Rondstede also expressed his attitude.

"Thank you very much, General Bock, General Lundstede, I will specifically raise this matter in the phone call with the Führer tonight. Now let’s talk about the specific work we need to do today." Weierle Go to the map and pick up an indicator stick against the wall.

"According to the reports of the various forces, we can now declare that the German Wehrmacht has occupied all of London. The western area and the core area are occupied by the Cypriot Army and General Bock’s Army Group B, plus the troops stationed in the outskirts of the city. The total force consists of five infantry divisions and one armored division. Occupying the southern and eastern regions is the Guderian regiment and the first part of the R Army of General Rondstede.

We know that General Guderian’s troops are pursuing the British mob in the northwest, so the occupation of this area is mainly based on the troops of the r army. There are about two infantry divisions and one light armored regiment entering the city. And from the east of the city to the mouth of the Thames, it was blocked by the German Navy and a part of the light infantry divisions, and there were about two infantry divisions. "

"Yes, it's roughly the same at the moment, Weierle, tell me about your next plan." Bock looked through his notebook. Confirm that the data has no errors.

"We have already occupied London’s waterworks, power plants, gasworks, substations, sluices, and pumping stations at all levels. These critical infrastructures are currently in good condition and can operate normally. Here I request that troops be deployed to these facilities. For strict protection, it is necessary to ensure that the infrastructure in London can basically operate normally before the signing of the surrender agreement in the UK.

At the same time, we also need to control the various food storage units. We need the cooperation of the British officials who were originally in charge of these affairs in each living material warehouse to count the current remaining materials. In this regard, I will be responsible for communicating with the British side. Before that, we have to undertake the daily supply of supplies in this city. This is a test for our logistics unit. I will also seek assistance from the UK on this point.

We are going to send more soldiers to patrol the streets today, so that more British people can see them tangibly, and let them feel that our soldiers are just like them. They are ordinary people. They have two more sharp horns on their foreheads, and they will not hold a sharp knife in their mouths when they walk. "Weirle glanced at the two generals. The other nodded in agreement. He pointed to the map and continued.

"There are still many important areas we want to occupy. These places must be strictly protected, such as the University of London, the British Museum, the Imperial War Museum, the Imperial Library, the courts, the telephone office, the post office, the radio station, and the newspaper. , Major hospitals, historical sites, banks and financial exchanges~IndoMTL.com~We have to send troops to control these places. Some facilities can continue to operate, and some are temporarily closed and sealed, depending on the specific circumstances.

There are also military installations, command agencies, arsenals and military production enterprises in some cities, especially some military research institutions, which must be occupied, blocked and cleaned up immediately, and weapons, important production tools and research materials must not be scattered. .

Finally, starting today, the collection of munitions and weapons in the hands of city residents, as long as our soldiers still want to operate in this city, this problem must be resolved immediately. "Weirler put down the indicator stick, walked to the window and opened the curtain.

"Gentlemen, this city is actually a volcano. Our mission is very clear. It is to completely extinguish it before it erupts."
