Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 51: The 4D flag in the fire

　　 "Wait a minute! Marshal Brausic."

　　 Xu Jun suddenly discovered a problem in the Marshal's report.

　　 "Are you talking about the first and second motorized infantry battalions?"

　　 "Yes."

　　 "But I was only attacked by the 1st Motorized Infantry Battalion of the SS. Are you sure there are two battalions?"

　　 "I'm sure, Reinhardt, if you are only attacked by one battalion, then things are complicated." Brauchic was indeed experienced, and he understood the key to the problem at once.

　　 "Our opponent now has a battalion unknown, and I only have three companies and a half armored reconnaissance company left in my hand. If that battalion suddenly appears when I attack the opponent..." Xu Jun frowned and said.

　　 "Then the number of enemies will far exceed yours, and this operation is likely to fail." Brausic's voice was full of worry.

　　 "Now I will send another plane to your area for reconnaissance, and I must find the lost camp anyway." Brausic said.

　　 "Now it may be too late. I only have to take one step and count one step. The opponent does not have heavy weapons. I still have the strength to fight them." Xu Jun knew that if this operation were to abort, then the best chance to solve Hitler Also lost, Hitler may rise again. Xu Jun subconsciously told himself that if he couldn't kill Hitler this time, he might never have the chance to kill him. He made up his mind to bet once.

　　"Marshal Brausic, I am leaving now. Please order the plane to take off immediately. I need air support."

　　 "I see, sir. I remember that our 30th Armored Regiment in Arras also owns a light reconnaissance plane. I can order them to dispatch immediately and hope that we can succeed this time. All for Germany."

　　 "For Germany." Xu Jun put down the map.

　　 "Marshal, we are ready, please give your order," Hans said, reaching his upper body from outside the car.

　　"Okay, let's go now. Hans, you and I will be in this car. The other officers will stay with the troops in front of them and maintain radio communication."

　　 "Yes, Marshal."

　　 With the roar of the engine, the team began to advance again, but this time Xu Jun remembered the lesson. He arranged three 251 half-track armored personnel carriers on each side of the convoy to search for formations. However, because of this, the speed of the convoy was greatly slowed down, from the previous hurricane speed of 50 kilometers per hour to the current crawling speed of 30 kilometers per hour.

　　"Unicorn No. 2 calls the knight, Unicorn No. 2 calls the knight. I have reached your sky. Please answer when you hear."

　　Fonke gently pushed the joystick, and the FI156 tilted the fuselage and drew a light arc in the air.

　　"Unicorn No. 2 calls the knight, Unicorn No. 2 calls the knight. I am above you, asking for further instructions, please answer when I hear." Funke turned his head and looked at the mighty arm under the window Dangling convoys, galloping convoys are blowing smoke and dust on the French country roads.

　　 "Why don't they answer, Sergeant?" Leinster, the machine gun shooter in the rear compartment, asked curiously.

　　 "How do I know. Let's turn around, they should have seen us."

　　 "Unicorn No. 2, here is the knight, I heard you clearly, we have seen you."

　　The answer that the pilot was expecting finally came from the headset.

　　 "Knight, I need your further instructions, the headquarters ordered me to accept your command."

　　 Funk controlled the "White Stork" to continue spinning around the convoy. He is still wondering about the emergency order from the military command. Nothing was explained in the order, just let him arrive here and this unit will merge and accept the command of this unit, but there is no mention of the situation of this unit and what tasks it will perform. Funk really couldn't think of any other missions that needed to dispatch a reconnaissance aircraft behind his own line of defense, but orders were orders, and the only correct way to deal with orders was to execute them without hesitation.

　　"Unicorn No. 2, this is the Cavaliers. Now I order you to search carefully the area within 20 kilometers east of the convoy. No matter what you find, you must report to me immediately and keep in touch." The voice inside revealed an unquestionable sense of coercion.

　　 "Understood, knight." Funk replied solemnly, hearing from the other's tone that this task might be important. Funke didn't dare to neglect, he pushed the nose and increased the speed and flew towards the east of the convoy.

　　 Xu Jun took off the headset and handed it to the communicator. Now there is nothing else to do except patiently waiting. He leaned on the swaying carriage wall and closed his eyes to refresh himself.

　　 "Sir! Communication from the reconnaissance plane." Xu Junmeng opened his eyes when he heard the eager call from the correspondent.

　　 "What's the situation!" Xu Jun raised his hand and wiped his face and then took the headset from the communicator.

　　 "He found that a battle was going on in front of us." The correspondent's face was full of doubts.

　　 "What! Fight?"

　　 Xu Jun hurriedly put on the headset, and then heard the pilot's anxious call.

　　 "Knight! Knight! This is Unicorn No. 2, where a battle is taking place, repeat, here is a battle."

　　 "Unicorn No. 2, here is the knight. You report in detail. Who is fighting with whom? Specific location." Xu Jun asked loudly.

　　 "My current position is 14 kilometers in front of you. The smoke is too big. I can't see clearly. I'm going to fly a little lower. The battle below is fierce." I don't know if it's because of fear or excitement, pilot 'S voice sounded a little trembling.

　　 "Be careful."

　　 "Understood! I'm going down... Damn it, it's impossible!" The pilot's scream came from the headset.

　　 "Report what you saw!" Xu Jun anxiously shouted into the microphone. Seeing Xu Jun's anxious expression, Hans and the communicator sitting beside him became nervous. They didn't know what happened, but from Xu Jun's anxious expression, what the reconnaissance plane reported must be very important, and they couldn't help holding their breath and looking at their commander nervously.

　　 "It's our army. Both are our own army. Oh my God, they are killing each other. God. Who can tell me what happened here!" the pilot yelled in panic.

　　 "They are shooting at us... They are shooting at us. Hell, take us out of this place!" Suddenly another panicked voice came out of the headset, which sounded like another spy plane. A crew member.

　　 "Both sides are shooting at us! Hell, did they not recognize our logo?" the pilot roared angrily.

　　"Unicorn 2, get out of there. Unicorn 2, come back soon!" Xu Jun knew that the reconnaissance plane was in danger. The "White Stork" was not a fighter, and her thin body was basically Can't stand any ground fire.

　　 "Understand, I'm climbing, as long as... No, we were shot, we were shot. The tail shot, I lost control." The pilot yelled in panic.

　　"Unicorn No. 2, Unicorn No. 2, pull it up! Hold on!" Xu Jun called out loudly.

　　 "God. I can't hold her, we are about to fall..." With a harsh static noise, the roar of the pilot in the headset stopped abruptly, and he finally That wailing full of despair kept echoing in Xu Jun's mind.

　　 "We have lost Unicorn No. 2."

　　 Xu Jun took off the headphones, turned around and spoke to Hans lightly. Hans felt the commander's positively suppressed anger from Xu Jun's seemingly calm expression. He wisely gave up the question and only nodded slightly.

　　"Order the troops to speed up. I must figure out what is happening ahead! Let the troops prepare for battle!"

　　 "Yes, Marshal."

　　 Xu Jun pushed aside the anti-grenade screen of the overhead turret and leaned out of the turret. "The two German armies are fighting there? Which two troops will it be?" Xu Jun pulled down his goggles from the brim of his hat, letting the dust from the vehicle in front cover his straight uniform and Ying's face. His mind was constantly thinking about the problem, and he wanted to sort out the clues from the chaotic information he had obtained so far. "According to current intelligence, there is only Hitler's convoy in that position, and one of the two fighting units is likely to be him. But who is the other? Why are they attacking Hitler's convoy?" Xu Jun completely Can't figure it out.

　　 "Sir, sent a report from the reconnaissance armored car." Hans yelled from the car.

　　 "Come up with my headset." Xu Jun brought the inter-car communication headset and throat microphone.

　　 "I am Reinhardt, report what you found."

　　 "Sir! This is Rexter. I found black smoke, explosions and gunfire about five kilometers ahead of us." Rexter reported eagerly.

　　 "I can't see it here, because it is blocked by the dust in front." Xu Jun leaned up hard but still couldn't see any black smoke.

　　 "Sir, the situation ahead is unclear, whether we want to stop forward and send two vehicles to scout." After the last ambush, Rexter became cautious.

　　 "Yes... But the troops still have to move on, don't stop, we have to rush over." Xu Jun suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of a possibility that he would be killed by him before putting one. It's possible to see it as a joke.

　　 "Don't stop, move on. If the opponent resists, we will resolutely eliminate them. All enemies in front of us. Do you understand?" Xu Jun coldly ordered.

　　 "Obviously, Marshal. All the cars have heard it. They formed an assault team, approached two kilometers and started an assault. The enemies standing in front of us are all enemies, and whoever shoots at us will be eliminated." Lei Kester gave orders to his reconnaissance company loudly.

　　 "You heard that too, now let the soldiers prepare for battle. After the armored vehicle launches an attack, the infantry must keep up. Be ready to get out of the vehicle and fight at any time." Xu Jun shouted into the microphone.

　　 "Yes, Marshal."

　　 "I heard, Marshal."

　　The commanders of each company responded loudly on the radio.

　　 Xu Jun heard the infantry on the truck in front of him shouting orders to each other, and they began to check their weapons and equipment. A minute later, Xu Jun finally saw the black smoke Rexter said, and heard the fierce gunfire and explosion faintly coming from a distance through the roar of the armored vehicle.

　　 "We have been in contact with the other party, and they have set up intercepting firepower points." Following the sudden sound of the cannon from the avant-garde armored vehicle, Rexter excitedly reported to Xu Jun.

　　 "To destroy those firepower points, you must find out the number of the opposing unit. Don't make a surprise, you have to cover the infantry to get off." Xu Jun replied, and he then issued an order: "The convoy stop advancing, the team disperses, and all companies immediately Just get off the car and prepare for the assault."

　　 Then he switched the communicator switch to the in-car communication. "Driver, drive the car to one side of the field. I want to get off."

　　 "Yes, sir." The armored reconnaissance vehicle dashed off the highway and stopped in a field on one side.

　　 Xu Jun and Hans walked towards the forward of the convoy with a communicator carrying the radio.

　　 "How's the situation? Rexter!" Xu Jun shouted with the microphone. He heard the sound of the machine guns in front had stopped.

　　"Two firepower points have been destroyed. I have sent two armored vehicles to confirm the number of each other."

　　 "Very well, all commanders will gather at the front team now. We must first determine the battle plan." Xu Jun then ordered. "Gather all the troops to the front team. Our enemy is right in front."

　　 "It's all clear now." Xu Jun threw the identity card in his hand to Randolph who was aside.

　　 "Second SS Motorized Infantry Battalion, Adolf. Hitler's Guard Banner Division." Hans said with an expression of disbelief on his face.

　　 "This is the second missing unit. I still don't know who they attacked, but I think it might be that person." Xu Jun said coldly.

　　 "How is this possible? They are his direct troops." Daogen felt that Xu Jun's reasoning was ridiculous. He did not believe that the Führer’s flag team would attack their leader. It is easier for him to believe that the sun is square.

　　"This is just a deduction, but I don’t think it’s wrong. We’ll know in a little while. I don’t believe they will fire at their leader, but if someone does something in the middle, it’s hard to tell ”Xu Jun faintly felt that he had grasped the crux of the matter. If the facts were really like what he had guessed, then the whole matter was a botched and crazy conspiracy.

　　 "It's impossible that we don't have to discuss it now, we have a battle to fight." Xu Jun took the map in Hans's hand.

　　"Now the other party has become a group. We knocked down their outpost, but they didn’t even react to it. I think it might be because they are already in a hard fight and can’t deal with us. They all regard us as reinforcements. Listen to the current fierce gunfire, they are still shooting at each other. I suspect they have lost their unified command." Xu Jun paused and looked at the officers around him. Their faces received an affirmative answer.

　　"The next battle was easy. We split into three assaults. Duggan and Randolph led a company from the left flank to outflank, Hans and I led a company to break through the middle, and the rest was led by Captain Lanson Outflank from the right. The key is speed. We want to catch both of them by surprise. Is there any question?"

　　 "No, sir." The officers answered in unison.

　　"You can respond to any problems you encounter. You also call for mortar support to keep communication open."

　　 "Yes, sir."

　　 "Let's start." Xu Jun got into an armored vehicle next to him. He reached out from the turret and shouted to the group of officers: "Remember, everything we do is for Germany. !"

　　 "For Germany!" The officers paid a military salute to Xu Jun and ran towards their respective troops.

　　"Cyprus! Assault!"

　　 With a burst of shouts, the troops were divided into three battle groups and rushed towards the battlefield not far away under the cover of their armored vehicles.

　　 Xu Jun was indeed right. Both sides thought this new force was reinforcement. The second motorized infantry battalion regarded them as the first battalion, while Hitler's guards regarded them as reinforcements as the Führer said earlier. But when the two sides were looking forward to the final victory with the support of the reinforcements, that force actually launched an attack on both of them.

　　 The first reaction was the Second Motorized Infantry Regiment of the SS. Their commander finally remembered at the last moment that the first battalion was not equipped with armored vehicles, but when he just wanted to issue a defensive order, the opponent had already overwhelmed. The soldiers rushed towards him.

　　 The second motorized infantry battalion has suffered huge losses in the previous stage of the battle, mainly because their heavy weapons encountered the same trouble as the first battalion, and the unit they attacked was equipped with two Although the artillery had a small caliber, it still caused a lot of casualties. They didn't have the kind of solid positions that the first battalion had, but only dug some temporary simple trenches and foxholes.

　　 When it was discovered that the opponent had heavy weapons and his own heavy weapons were unable to fire, the battalion commander issued an order to charge. This order seemed completely correct at the time, because only by getting closer can the threat of the opponent's artillery be reduced, and the commander was still full of confidence in the melee ability of his soldiers.

　　 But what he didn't expect was that the attacked unit had a considerable number of automatic weapons, and as a result, when his infantry approached the opponent's defense circle, he was horrified by automatic weapons. Although the SS soldiers broke through the first line of defense with firm conviction, the opponent also caused almost two platoons of their own soldiers to fall on that highway. And when he was about to use the two captured artillery pieces, he discovered that the other side had taken the bolts away when they abandoned them.

　　 The opponent has set up a second line of defense in the fields beside the highway, and his soldiers are exposed to the firepower of those automatic weapons without any cover. Under the urging of the commander, the Waffen-SS members had to launch frantic charges again and again, and finally broke through the opponent's defense line after losing almost an entire company's troops, and divided the opponent into several parts. Part of the enemy army retreated into a small forest on the roadside, and the rest were scattered in some natural ravines in the fields. They continued to resist relying on these natural fortifications, causing continuous casualties to the Waffen-SS.

　　 As a result, the battle ended up in a stalemate. Because the Waffen SS suffered too much in the previous stage, they now found that they did not have enough strength to eat the opponent at once. And the other side is the same, the loss is even more severe under the crazy attack of the Motorized Second Battalion, and what is even more terrifying is that the Second Battalion does not even want to be captured, leaving nothing in their hands.

　　 The commander of the 2nd Motorized Infantry Battalion knew that the opponent’s command should be in that small forest, because his subordinates reported that when that part of the enemy fled into the woods, they were surrounded by a large group of officers. He considered whether he should mobilize all forces to attack the forest, but at the same time he was worried that he would be cross-fired by the remaining enemies in other directions.

　　 Just as he was thinking about how to deal with this difficult problem now, Xu Jun's troops arrived. Now the battalion commander doesn’t have to worry about how to attack. An armored commander who has been on him a long time ago rescued him from the confusion with a burst of 20mm shells and stood him with him. Several subordinates were sent directly to heaven together.

　　 "I am Daogen, and progress is going well here. I have begun to compress inward."

　　"This is Lanson. I have surrounded the back of the woods. Many people have escaped from the woods and surrendered. We are gathering them."

　　 "Very good, pay attention to search, and don't let a person run away." Xu Jun shouted into the microphone with satisfaction.

　　The next battle was a complete battle of annihilation. The Waffen-SS had already been exhausted. Their original enthusiasm for fighting quickly extinguished under the relentless blast of armored vehicles and the double attack of fierce army soldiers. The whole group of Waffen-SS soldiers raised their hands and surrendered to the murderous army soldiers.

　　 And the Führer Guards were even more unbearable. When they found out that they were facing the Army troops, they immediately put down their weapons. In fact, they had lost the courage to continue resisting when the armored vehicles charged at them. The Second Motorized Infantry Battalion is different. They guessed the identity of this unit. They knew who they were facing. In fact, they have been waiting for this moment since they left the French town, but they didn't expect it to happen. Is in this case. They knew that it was a foolish act to fight with Cyprus, not to mention that they didn't even have the strength to fight.

　　The battle soon ended. The prisoners were divided into two teams according to their respective ownerships. Both sides had lost the previous life-and-death mood. They looked nervously at the submachine guns in the hands of the army soldiers guarding them, although their The sense of honor supported them to keep their chests upright, no one was downcast, but this still couldn't conceal the fear of the winner from their eyes.

　　 "Have you found that person!" Xu Jun turned around and asked Hans in a low voice.

　　"Not yet. Several soldiers said they saw Hitler fleeing into the woods with his adjutants, but no one saw him come out. Captain Lanson is leading the soldiers to continue the search."

　　 "Sir, sir, Captain Lanson wants to talk to you." The correspondent reported from the side.

　　 "Okay, give me the microphone." Xu Jun hurriedly took the microphone handed over by the communicator.

　　 "Captain Lanson, have you found him?" Xu Jun asked nervously.

　　 "Yes, sir. I found him." Lanson said in a dull voice.

　　 "What's going on? Is he dead?"

　　"Not yet, but...sir, he wants to see you, sir, I suggest you come and see for yourself."

　　 "Okay, you are in your current position." Xu Jun was finally relieved when he heard Lanson's report that he found Hitler. He was already mentally prepared to meet Hitler. Come, now that he has won the battle, what's the deal with seeing him.

　　 "You go to the edge of the woods, I will send a soldier to bring you here."

　　 Xu Jun put down the microphone, turned his head and said to Hans: "Hans, come with me and bring some soldiers."

　　 Although it seems that he has won the final victory now, he still dare not take it lightly. There are countless heroes who died at the moment of victory in history. He doesn't want to be one of them.

　　 "Yes, sir." Hans waved his hand at the group of soldiers guarding him, and led the group of soldiers to follow Xu Jun to the grove.

　　A soldier was already waiting for Xu Jun by the woods. He saluted Xu Jun with excitement and took them into the woods. The woods are not big, they are basically maple trees, and they are not densely grown. The sun shines through the gaps of the green leaves on the soil in the forest, showing beautiful spots. Not long after they walked, Xu Jun saw Lan Sen and the others. They were gathered in a circle and looked down at something silently.

　　 "Captain Lansen." Xu Jun shouted loudly.

　　 Hearing Xu Jun's shout, the soldiers raised their heads. When they saw Xu Jun walking quickly, he quickly and respectfully held a gun.

　　 "Marshal, you are here at last, come on, he wants to see you for the last time, I don't think he can hold on anymore." Lan Sen ran to Xu Jun and took Xu Jun's hand and stood in front of them. Ran to the place.

　　 "Captain Lanson, what do you want to do!" Hans hurriedly stopped behind, but Lanson continued to run Xu Jun as if he had heard nothing.

　　 "Stop him and protect the marshal's safety." Hans ordered the soldiers behind him, who quickly raised their weapons and chased after Lanson.

　　 Lansen pulled Xu Jun to the place in front of them and stopped. What entered Xu Jun's eyes was a huge tree pit, and a person was sitting at the bottom of the pit against the pit wall. Xu Jun had imagined in his mind countless times what it would be like to meet this person for the last time, but now this is something he has never thought of before, and the dying Adolf appeared before him. Hitler.

　　 He is still wearing his tan uniform and black pants. Now that once spotless uniform was covered with mud and grass roots everywhere, blood had stained a large area of ​​the uniform's chest and it was still flowing down. His beautiful red hat wall military cap was thrown on the moist mud floor, and his always meticulous hairstyle has been messed up, wet and clinging to his forehead, sweat constantly following the tips of his ears. The rolling down.

　　 Hitler’s face is now a dead gray, that kind of white and blue horrible complexion, which is caused by excessive blood loss, but no matter how terrifying his face is, it’s not as horrible as his eyes. That kind of look, a cold, vicious look. The only thing Hitler could maintain his power was his eyes, but Xu Jun saw other things in his eyes, in addition to anger and hatred, there were also despair, loneliness, regret and attachment.

　　"Do you feel that your ambition is unpaid?"

　　 Xu Jun secretly sighed and jumped out of the tree hole. He found that Hitler was still holding a helmet tightly in one hand, and not far from the other hand was a Mauser 98K rifle.

　　 "You fought, right?"

　　 Xu Jun knelt down on one leg beside Hitler.

　　 "Unfortunately you failed, you are doomed to fail, but no matter what, you have preserved your dignity."

　　 "Führer, do you want to say something to me?" Xu Jun whispered to Hitler.

　　 Hitler never left Xu Jun's eyes as soon as he appeared. After hearing Xu Jun's words, his eyes lit up. Xu Jun could see that it was a fire, a fire of anger.

　　"It seems you can’t speak anymore, I know you hate me, I know you hate me for betraying you. But what I want to tell you is that everything I do is for Germany, I don’t want to watch With Germany’s destruction in your hands. Now you have failed, and I have won. In your words, you have been eliminated. I remember you once said that the eliminated is the inferior and should not survive in the world Come on, can you still stick to your point of view now?"

　　 Hitler's eyes trembled, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

　　"I’ve been thinking about how to meet you this time, but I didn’t expect it to be the same. This time we both fell into the trap of the same person. I escaped. You didn’t. . But I can assure you that I will make that person pay the price it deserves. Even if it is to avenge you. You know who that person is. Only he can mobilize your guard in your name."

　　 Hitler stared at Xu Jun~IndoMTL.com~ There was a look of regret in his eyes, and it seemed that he also thought about who was behind this incident. His emotions began to become agitated, and his breathing became more and more rapid. A blush suddenly appeared on his gray face, and his eyes flashed with cold light. The dying he did not know where his strength came from, and threw away his helmet and grabbed it. Xu Jun's neckline.

　　 "I failed, so I should die. You won, which proves that you are better than me!"

　　 Hitler screamed hoarsely, blood pouring from his mouth to his chest.

　　"My point of view is correct. You have proved that you are noble than me. Germany is in your hands. I am relieved. But you must remember that I am correct, my thoughts, my views , My ideas are extremely correct. I have used my own life to prove the correctness of this thinking. Do you understand?"

　　 Hitler pushed Xu Jun away violently. He raised his face and looked at the canopy above his head. The sun shone through the canopy onto his blood-filled face.

　　 "That **** Jew..." Hitler murmured to himself, and then the head of the Third Reich exhaled a long breath, slowly lowering his head, and died.

　　 A breeze blew, blowing the charred Nazi party flag on the side of the tree pit to the bottom of the pit. The broken flag covered Hitler’s chest, and soon the black **** was by his designer. Soaked in blood, Xu Jun suddenly felt that the twisted flag really looked like a burning flame, a flame that could burn everything, including itself.
