Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 9: The battle is coming
On July 18, 1940, the French campaign, which was delayed for nearly two months by that well-known reason, finally began to come to an end. The Third French Republic was led to extinction by a wrong plan. road. Fastest update
The course of history is really wonderful. The final collapse of this huge empire, once the most powerful and wealthy country in Europe, which claimed to have the most powerful army in Europe, started in a small rural town.
Sar Village, a small ordinary French village, so ordinary that few French people have heard her name. She is neither on the main road of transportation, nor is it a strategically important place. There are no great people or famous products abroad. In the eyes of anyone, she is a worthless goal.
Before that day, no one in the world would pay attention to her, but after this day, this ordinary French town attracted the attention of the whole world, and everyone was talking This French town is talking about the tragic battle that led to the final demise of a country. Because on that day, the German head of state led his guards to this small village and opened the prelude to the final battle of the French campaign.
Now, the parties involved in that battle didn't even think of those, they were working hard for the upcoming battle.
"Sir, this is the latest reconnaissance report." Weierle took a document and greeted Xu Jun who had just climbed off the armored command vehicle.
"Really." Xu Jun took the document and walked toward the newly built temporary headquarters while reading it carefully.
"Also, the group army command and the high command have just sent a telegram, and they strongly oppose your decision. Marshal Feng, Marshal Brausic also sent a private telegram, and he hopes that you can get from Leaving here. I also think you really shouldn’t stay here to take risks. Germany must not lose you now. The Germanic nation’s rejuvenation is all on your shoulders. If you have any problems, come to Germany. It is said that it will be a disaster. I still hope that you can take that special plane to leave here, and let us handle the subsequent battles. The plane has already arrived and can take off at any time. I..."
Weirle followed Xu Jun and uttered his opinions endlessly. He was very worried that the upcoming battle would bring danger to the young leader, and anything could happen during the battle. Although he is full of confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Hydra Army, if the intelligence shows the real situation, then the current comparison of the forces in this area is quite unfavorable for the German team. Weierle decided to find a way to get the German **** to leave the front line and retreat to a safe place anyway.
But those words that had been carefully considered by Chief of Staff Wei Da did not finish all the words. The young head stopped, then turned his head slightly, and looked at his loyal chief of staff seriously, that kind of sharp The look in the eyes and the bitter momentum forced Weierle's remaining persuasion back into his stomach.
Xu Jun looked at his Chief of Staff without saying a word. After a quiet standoff for half a minute, Weierle decided to surrender.
The chief of staff, who was stared a little hairy by the young head of state, had already understood from the opponent's eyes how firm the determination of the highest German leader was, and he couldn't shake it no matter what he said now.
"I...I understand, my head, now that you have made up your mind...your will is the command, your head." Weierle lowered his head humbly.
"My chief of staff, you still don't understand..." Xu Jun's mouth raised slightly, and he gave the shrewd chief of staff a bright smile.
"But...I think you will understand soon." Xu Jun turned around relaxedly, and strode towards the headquarters with the reconnaissance report.
The head of state's personal guard, who had been on guard from the beginning, slowly moved closer behind him, narrowing the line of defense, and the SS commandos watched the surroundings vigilantly. The two soldiers who were closer to Weierle looked curiously at the Chief of Staff, who was still standing still, and then turned their attention to some locations near the command that might hide the attackers. These soldiers did not understand at all what the two great men were talking about, and they were not interested in understanding. For them, there was only one thing they needed to know, and they had to defend the great life of the head of state to the death.
Willer still stood in place while pondering what Xu Jun had said before, while taking out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the cold sweat.
"I don't understand? I don't understand what? What does this mean, I'm getting more and more confused about his thoughts. Is there any other reason? Is anyone going to be unlucky, ha ha." Weierle smiled bitterly and shook his head. The clever chief of staff decided not to spend any effort to play this kind of guessing game, and he chased Xu Jun from behind.
The temporary headquarters consisted of five large military tents connected together. The middle one was Xu Jun’s office and combat meeting room.
When Xu Jun walked into the tent, the staff of the logistics department of the headquarters was still busy setting up the conference table and Xu Jun’s office cubicle in the tent. The secretaries were sorting out what was needed in the upcoming battle. The documents from the tent are placed in the file cabinet next to the desk according to their categories. Two staff officers are busy posting battle maps on the map shelf, and several engineers are climbing on the folding ladder to install reinforcement members on the steel tube brackets of the tent. . Seeing Xu Jun coming in, everyone put aside their work and respectfully paid attention to him.
"Thanks, everyone." Xu Jun raised his hand to salute, and the officers and soldiers hurriedly returned the salute.
"You all go out for a while, let's organize these things later."
"Yes, the head of state." The officers and soldiers answered quickly, and then quickly left the meeting room, leaving only the two staff officers and a secretary waiting for the call.
Xu Jun found a chair at the conference table and sat down. He lowered his head and faced the reconnaissance report for a while, then asked Weierle, who was sitting opposite him: "How do you Look at this, Weierle."
"What, oh, are you asking about this report?" Weierle sat upright.
"It's very troublesome, my Führer. It looks like we are in a bad situation now." Weierle turned to the staff officer standing aside and said: "Bring the map, and the commander’s Those telegrams."
"Yes, sir." The staff officer quickly put the map and a dozen documents in front of Weierle.
"You don't need to explain the current situation to me. I know this very well. What I want to know is what strategy you have to deal with." Xu Jun raised his body and dragged the map from Weierle. .
"Now we have to build a strong line of defense first. There is no other strategy to talk about. Once we withstand their first wave of offensive, we can consider other issues. According to our current strength, this battle will be right. Ours was a very severe test. But as long as we can withstand their offensive, then we may be able to mobilize our troops to anti-encircle them and win the final victory. I think you must have made this plan long ago. My head of state." Weierle replied.
"You’re right. This time is actually a great opportunity for us. Both of my armies have reached the most ideal positions. I was still thinking about how to achieve the goal I set. I didn’t expect France People came here by themselves. How can we give up the opportunity to destroy their last strength? These should be their last strength. If we can win this battle, then the French battle will be over." Xu Jun took out the cigarette case and lit a cigarette.
Three days ago, the command had already sensed the French action from various reconnaissance reports. But until yesterday, they all thought it was just a small-scale counterattack, and no one predicted that the situation would suddenly become so serious.
Everyone underestimated the French's ambitions. The French did not implement the kind of tactical attack he had imagined to delay time, but a thorough strategic counterattack. The French desperately put all his mobilized forces into this counterattack. The French team wanted to make one last struggle.
The High Command has formulated a plan to eliminate these French offensive forces, and if it is implemented in accordance with that plan, the German team will be able to cope with it calmly as long as the Chinese people launched a strategic large-scale attack.
But the situation suddenly changed, and the German head of state fell into this danger now.
The French team changed their offensive direction due to a special reason. As a result, they rushed out of the trap carefully planned by the German high command, and the German team made a splash. And the position they are referring to now is the German head of state and his army.
The Führer’s Guards are about to face the attack of the last elite force of the French troops, while other German troops are unable to support the Hydra Corps in time due to the distance. This is why the command desperately wants The reason that dragged Xu Jun away from that battlefield.
From the intelligence point of view, the French are far above Hydra in number. No matter how elite the legion is, facing such a large number of enemies, it will fall into a hard fight. The command is worried that once the situation becomes difficult to deal with, The life of the Führer will also be threatened, and no one will be able to bear this responsibility at that time, so they desperately urged other troops to move closer to Hydra, while constantly sending reports requesting the Führer to leave the dangerous area.
"The Führer, what we have to face now is the main force of the French, I am afraid we will not be able to hold on to the end. We only have one division, and the French have..." Weierle said with a wry smile.
"The French used all their available reserves this time."
Xu Jun pinched out the cigarette butt, then picked up a report.
"The law team mobilized a total of 17 divisions and 320,000 people this time. Two of them are their only remaining armored divisions. Okay, I know what you want to say. But remember one thing, We have to stay here no matter what, we have to hold down those French teams. Only in this way can my plan be implemented, and we can give the French a fatal blow here and completely defeat them." Xu Jun said indifferently: "That's why I don't leave here. They already know that I am here, and their goal is actually me. And before they destroy me and my legion, they won't make any other moves, so they will give We have a chance to annihilate them. Of course, before that, we must first ensure that we will not be annihilated by them first. It's really funny to say that we just set a trap for them, but we didn't realize that we had fallen into each other. The trap. Now we have to figure out how to use the enemy's trap to trap themselves. I want those French people to be hanged by the noose made by myself."
"This is too dangerous. Before our reinforcements reach their attack position, we have to face at least one French armored division and six infantry divisions. This is a tough battle. Use a mechanization. The infantry division went to fight against seven times as many enemies, and I was really a little uneasy to say it." Weierle said, shaking his head.
"You don’t have to worry too much about this. We all know the strength of the French team. Their tactics are too rigid, and the cooperation between the various units is also chaotic. And you see, this reconnaissance report says that they are all There is still a big gap between the French teams. The mobility of the French teams is uneven. Some troops are even one day apart. And there is only one road passing by here. The French’s poor mobility makes them not Leave the highway and proceed so that we know which direction they are coming from.
Our air force will consume their power on the road, delay their actions, and give us time to build strong fortifications. And they are likely to join the offensive division by division as usual, which gives us the opportunity to break through. Of course, this is all hypothesis, and I dare not pack a ticket for what will happen.
But at least we don’t have to worry about the law teams coming in. The terrain here is not bad, with plains on one side and woodland on three sides. There are not many places where troops can be deployed. According to the size of our position, they cannot put down six infantry divisions and one armored division on the front. We only need to beat them twice.
According to the intelligence, their vanguard force will arrive here this evening, but the order I have given is for the Air Force to continue bombing that force to delay as long as possible. If the effect of the air force bombing is satisfactory, they may not be able to get here until noon tomorrow, and it is absolutely impossible to go into battle immediately, so that we can get another day for ourselves.
Three days, if we hold each other for three days, we can make history. France will be completely finished because of the defeat of this battle, and we will win the final victory. "Xu Jun said leisurely.
"I believe this, my head, everything will operate according to your will." Weierle replied respectfully, and he went on to say: "How do you want to deal with that person’s problem, now we have He has sufficient evidence to accuse him. He has betrayed you to your enemy again and again, making you passive several times, and this time he also leaked your movements to the French. This is a naked rebellion. , This is the enemy, he betrayed Germany, how will you deal with him."
"Now I can't move him. I still need him to continue to deliver the message to the French. If he is arrested suddenly, the French will guess that their plan has been seen through, and they will most likely retract. This way. It will disrupt my ongoing deployment. Now he and the French think that we have not discovered their plan. They think that everything is still under their control, so they will rashly get into what I prepared for them. Trap.
The man has been closely monitored by us now, and I am not afraid that he can play any new tricks, but when the law team in front of us begins to retreat, that is the day he entered the German prison, I will do a good job of calculating the ledger with him, so that all Germans know what will happen to a traitor who betrays his motherland and his own nation. "Xu Jun frowned, and Weierle couldn't help but fight a cold war with the cruel chill in his tone.
"I see, that kind of person should have this fate." Weirler took off his monocle, took out his handkerchief and wiped it.
"Then your decision is that we are going to fight a defensive battle here. It seems that our Hydra encountered an arduous test in the first appearance. We now need to gather all senior officers for a combat meeting. Time is running out. We need to let them know the seriousness of the situation. Every soldier and officer must be fully prepared for the upcoming battle. But they are all veterans and very experienced. I think they will know what to do How to do it." Weierle said.
"Okay, you will now call all the officers above the battalion level for a meeting. We need to discuss the details of the defensive operations. We need them to make some suggestions. After all, their actual combat experience is richer than ours. We know what else we haven’t thought of. We also need to know from them what supplies are still lacking in the army, mainly what we need for defensive operations. Before we are surrounded, we still The air force can be allowed to drop a batch of supplies and supplies in the nearby open space to prepare for the subsequent siege, so we must make a list as soon as possible."
"Yes, the Führer. I will issue orders now." Weirle stood up and bowed slightly to Xu Jun, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the tent. When he lifted the curtain, there was a burst of plane-specific The roar sounded slowly from the top of their heads.
"Oh, it seems that the air force is dispatched." Xu Jun stood up and walked out of the tent with Weierle.
At this time, all the soldiers and officers outside the tent were raising their heads and looking up at the sky, and some soldiers were cheering and waving their arms into the air.
Xu Jun and Weierle squinted their eyes and looked into the sky, and saw hundreds of medium bombers arranging steel-like neat formations and flying over their heads to the southeast.
The huge fleet even blocked the sun for an instant, casting a large shadow on the ground, and the spectacular scene excited everyone present.
"These planes are fighting for you, my head of state. I have never seen such a sight. I have never seen so many planes flying together. It seems that there are at least three hundred planes. It is really spectacular. Now." Weierle sighed loudly.
"You will see more of this in the future~IndoMTL.com~My Chief of Staff. This is a new tactic I have developed for our Air Force. It concentrates a large number of aircraft on an area. The difference, the coverage bombing without gaps. I didn't expect the Air Force to have training results so soon. It seems that the French will not arrive here at noon tomorrow." Xu Jun said happily.
"Oh, new tactics, have you named this tactic?"
Weirler is no stranger to the endless new ideas in Xu Jun. Besides, he doesn't know anything about the Air Force. He doesn't understand what cover bombing is, let alone how powerful it is. .
He is now interested in what name has been given to his new tactics by the Lord of the Führer, and the other is why the Führer from the Army can develop new tactics for the Air Force.
"Oh, I call it carpet bombing. Although it will waste a bit of ammunition, after you have learned his power, you will feel that this waste is worthwhile, my chief of staff." Xu Jun said casually. Turned around and walked into the tent of the headquarters.
