Battle of the Third Reich
v5 Chapter 178: Soldiers in London
"Tank! Advance!" Major Martin Heisler swung his arms up and down quickly, indicating that his battalion company could start an attack. ≤≤small≤said,
"Sir! The supply you requested is already on the way. The commander asks you to protect the supply line of the two wings." The battalion communications staff hurried to the tank and reported to the battalion commander that he would stay with the logistics unit and the battalion communications office. At the assembly point.
"Understood, tell the commander that we are the assault troops, and these problems should be left to the infantry to solve." Major Heisler turned his head and shouted, "Go forward! Go forward! Soldiers! We want Go and beat the British down!"
This is the vanguard of the 3rd Armored Regiment of the 2nd Armored Division. As the newcomers just after landing, they are full of eagerness to fight, and the morale of the whole army is as rainbow. The first division commander of the Second Armored Division is now Lieutenant General Guderian, the commander-in-chief of the e-cluster armored force. In the French campaign, he was also fortunate to belong to the old commander. It has also created a miracle of war history that advances 700 kilometers within 48 hours.
The second battalion of the Third Armored Regiment was outstanding, but this time it was not put into the first echelon of the landing, because the troops have not been completely changed, and most of the battalion use is still the standard equipment used in the French battlefield.
Major Heisler personally commanded the battalion headquarters of the 2nd Battalion, a 39-year lightly armoured company with full staff. Different from the historical standard, the superior Kane finally replaced the No. 1 command tank used by all the armored battalion commanders, which made the whole battalion relieved.
The original armor of the No. 1 command tank is weak, and it has a fool shape with a square head and a brain. The fixed car body is only equipped with a machine gun, which attracts eyeballs on the battlefield. This is simply to let the commander crouch in a cardboard box with a large bullseye to direct the operation of the whole battalion. Any shelling against the battalion will make the whole battalion frightened. The battalion commander can live to the present is really Hong Fuqi day. This time it was finally a shotgun change. The battalion commander and battalion commander both took on the brand-new No. 3 command tank. The survivability of the command system on the battlefield finally had some guarantees.
This tank was modified on the basis of the basic model No. 3, and the Germans also had different installations of communication equipment. Three equipment numbers were specifically given to the same car. As the command core of an armored force, this tank is equipped with two command radios, which can communicate with the higher command or issue commands directly to the bicycle.
In order to make room for communications equipment, the command tank welded the turret seat and removed the main weapon. Only a wooden fake gun was installed on the position where the main gun was originally installed as a camouflage. It is exactly the same as the ordinary No. 3 tank in terms of appearance and maneuverability, which avoids targeted attacks by the enemy's armored forces. .
Now the commander of the German tank battalion is standing on the turret of the command vehicle, and this commander is at the most glorious moment since his army. He will be loaded into the German military as the first German Defense Force officer to lead his troops into the British capital. history.
"You! We once fought **** battles on the Polish plains. We also tasted the wine of victory together in Dunkirk. Now, in front of us, is the heart of Germany's most powerful enemy. I hope you will be loyal together with me We will fight for our duty and we will win. This time, we will sing the triumph of the German Wehrmacht together at Buckingham Palace Square in London." With the radio microphone in hand, Heisler issued a pre-war mobilization to his men.
In fact, he didn't have to do this at all, because everyone knew they were going to fight. What a historic moment for Germany, if they can complete this task, everyone will become a great hero like a book in childhood.
The second armored division became an assault spearhead to complete the London encirclement, which was completely an accident. At the beginning, the mission assigned to this unit was to take out Maidstone from the south, and Cyprus, which cooperated with Manstein, won the last large town in the south of the London capital and opened it for this terrible three-headed dog. Rush towards the gate of London.
In the past three days, the German troops have suffered a lot because of the bad weather. Of course, the British will not feel any good. The Germans finally made some material preparations before, but the British could only rely on some old capital left in the warehouse. Struggling hard in adversity.
The British have clarified their attitudes to the Germans with actual performance. If these Anglos do not taste a little bitter, they will never succumb.
The London side finally could not hold the lid, at seven o'clock at night. Churchill gave a radio address on Radio London, announcing to the outside world the terrible situation the British Empire is currently facing. The Germans tricked Dover’s defenders by tricks. They launched a mean attack, although the British officers and soldiers stationed in Dover No fear of life and death **** battle, but under the overwhelming advantage of the enemy. In the end, he failed to resist the attack of the powerful and evil enemies. The Dover area has fallen, and the German iron boots have stepped into English territory.
Churchill called on all the British people to unite immediately and launch a firm resistance against the aggressors. He announced that from the moment the order was issued, he would inherit the power given to him by His Majesty the King of the British Empire, and he would have the authority to command all British Empires, overseas colonies, and the British. The armed forces of the members of the Imperial Federation, and all the people in the Imperial territory, whether they are British or foreigners, must unreservedly obey the orders of the wartime cabinet he and his representative, he vowed to fight evil in London 'S enemies fought to the last moment, he vowed never to consider peace with the enemies, let alone surrender to the aggressors, he would lead this great country to fight until the last British or German on the earth fell. The war will really end.
It is difficult to describe the reaction of the citizens of London and the diplomatic institutions of various countries in London when they heard the broadcast, which is roughly like the eruption of a Vesuvius volcano in the city center.
London citizens never thought of the day when they would face the invaders. Although their school-age men were organized to receive infantry training from various community organizations, it was just a walk in the community park with a wooden stick.
That night, the government finally opened the warehouse, and community workers pushed the carts to start issuing weapons to the citizens. These weapons had been stored in a secret arsenal underground in the city of London, even when the army lacked the most weapons. .
These rifles, which have been sealed for more than ten years or even decades, have been handed out to the citizens. The variety of them, which spans the year, is amazing, and some equipment can even be traced back to the Crimean War.
Citizens' self-defense team members who have got brown basses whose sealing oil is almost as hard as stone want to cry without tears. What are they doing? Could it be that we are wearing a red uniform to stage a thin red line outside of London? Having said that, what about the matching bullets? Is it possible to take advantage of the chance that the German soldiers are half-dead with a smile and step forward with the iron bar to end them? That strategy is really spicy.
A generation of young men born after the war can be fearless because of ignorance, and those citizens who had suffered a war in their forties or forties knew that. What the last war looked like, those old people knew very well that, under the horrific infantry heavy firepower and automatic weapons, the blood of the dead corpses could only be regarded as an appetizer.
Londoners have always been infested only by German bombers. These Heinkels and Spitfires are coming and going, buzzing overhead day and night, which is really annoying to say, but now with those terrible Compared with the German infantry, these disturbing flies above the head became indescribably cute, and they were missing for a few days.
Over time, the situation seemed to get worse and worse as the people expected. With the depressing downpour and heavy rain at night, news of the defeat of the British troops from various channels began to keep coming. The news vividly showed the tragic sight of the front line to the citizens. The brutal Germans were armed to their teeth. The barbarians seemed to be in pain and tirelessly, advancing inland all night long.
No matter how hard the brave British soldiers fought, the result was only a tragic defeat. These Germans were bloodthirsty lunatics, and their brains only knew how to complete the orders of their head, whether it was heavy rain or shells. Block their footsteps. When I thought about seeing such a tough enemy face to face, I didn't know how many British families stayed up all night.
Starting the next day, all factories and units in London and its surrounding areas, except military enterprises, were closed. Workers and employees were organized and began to brave the rain to dig new trench lines around London. Everyone who took part in the work could get a fifteen pence salary and a free lunch.
From the early morning of the 24th, troops that had escaped from the front entered the surrounding towns of London one after another. These soldiers are often empty-handed, without officers leading them, and carrying no casualties and weights. There is only a set of drenched military uniforms and a steel helmet used to cover the rain from the whole body, if not the ugly steel has this function , Must have been abandoned like other things long ago.
They walked in embarrassment on the streets of villages and towns like walking dead bodies. Their eyes were distracted and their expressions were frustrated. Many people were terribly frightened. As can be seen from these people's trembling body and their fearful eyes, these The soldiers have been abandoned, not only their weapons but also their glory and courage they lost on the battlefield.
