Battle of the Third Reich

v5 Chapter 265: Tongdeng Meat Grinder (4)

Just as the Powell car team was engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese, the SS Guard Armed Brigade's team had arrived less than five kilometers from the crossfire area. $f. $f

The full name of this unit should be "German Empire's Armed Guards Group attached to the German SS attached to the diplomatic envoy of the Republic of China". Even the translation into Chinese is so mouthful. It is even longer to change into German. Read it in one breath. I was able to suffocate one or two shortness of breath, so the members of the German Embassy referred to it as the "armed guard brigade", and after China, it was simplified again by the local media newspaper into the "armed police brigade". It's very psychic.

The members of the armed guard brigade have always referred to their own unit as the Tomahawk brigade, because the logo of the brigade determined when this unit was formed was a Viking tomahawk and ss lightning, and Himmler gave them inside the SS. The number is the 801st Storm Commando of the SS, but most people are not too cold about this name.

The commander of the current brigade is Hans von Ludwig, the commander of the SS first-class commando, but because of being incorporated into the armed forces sequence, the rank is determined to be a rank of lieutenant colonel. At this time, the SS commander was sitting in the sd.kz.250/3 radio command communication vehicle of the brigade headquarters, and worriedly looked at the map in his hand.

"Sergeant Powell reported that they had confided with each other. He was already certain that this was a premeditated ambush against us. Their armored car engine failed and asked the brigade to rush to support. The enemy he saw so far. There is probably a platoon of troops, and maybe there are more in the back. Sergeant Powell is fighting alone, sir." The communications staff officer reported loudly, covering his headphones.

"Hopefully, they will continue until we arrive. The convoy is already marching at full speed. It's really hard to understand why the Japanese attacked the German army." Lieutenant Colonel Ludwig put down the map and raised his eyebrows with his hand.

"Sir, I have a guess."

Major Smith, the deputy captain and intelligence officer crowded in the corner of the car, suddenly said that the major had been working in the Imperial Security Administration before joining the team. He has been reluctant to say more about the specific position. From the personal file, he actually graduated from the Berlin Army University. It is indeed a rare talent in the SS. It is said that he has some defects in his personality. After only one year in the army, he was ordered to retire by his superiors. So far, the major has been somewhat bitter about that history.

"Tell your opinion, Berne." Ludwig asked.

After working together for a while, Ludwig had a deep understanding of Smith's reasoning ability, and in the past he trusted the deputy's judgment very much.

"What we should think about now is. Why did the Japanese appear in that place. Route 4 is clearly in the territory of French Indochina." Smith pointed out the core of the incident sharply.

"They crossed the border. Although they didn't know where they were, they obviously crossed the border." Ludwig's eyes lit up, and he punched his palm hard with his fist.

"Not only this, but also fully armed, this is not a cross-border, this is a premeditated invasion. From the map, the next city on Highway 4 is the important transportation hub on the border, which is China and French India. If you control the city, the important exit channel of the China border can cut off Highway 4. This is the traffic artery of the city on the northern border. Obviously, like they did three years ago, the Japanese army once again Playing with fire. Imagine when a group of robbers were seen by a lone passerby during the robbery process."

"They thought that the Powell car group was acting alone, these Japanese people want to wipe out the witnesses."

"My reasoning needs more intelligence support, but judging from the information currently available, this is the most logical answer." Smith finished pushing the silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, the lens reflected A cold light.

"Afterwards they can find 10,000 reasons to deny this matter. And we can't produce valid evidence at all, of course, provided that Sergeant Powell is really only acting alone."

"I've seen intelligence information about the Japanese army. This group of lunatics often do this. But they didn't expect them to be so bold that they shot the German army. This was a flagrant offense against the Third Reich. The SS is the guard of the head of state. Attacking the SS is a challenge to the authority of the empire. We must let these people know how much it will cost. Our duty is to defend the great heads of state and fight to maintain the divine honor of the heads of state." Ludwig Lieutenant Colonel of Greece hoped to issue a declaration of war.

"To convey the news to all the platoons, I want every soldier to know this. Tell the soldiers that just now, the dignity of the heads of state and the third empire was trampled on. The shameless Japanese tried to cover up their war crimes The attack on the passing German army was undoubtedly an act of war. As the glorious German SS, we must resolutely fight back. In order to maintain the honor of the great head of state, the great third empire’s Honor, the honor of the great German people, including our own honor of the SS, I ordered every soldier of the brigade to go all out in battle. Without fear, without mercy, our honor is loyalty!" Ludwig Lieutenant Colonel Greek gave a command to the communications staff with a serious look.

The communications staff quickly adjusted the frequency, connected to the company’s walkie-talkies, and forwarded the full text of the company’s platoon leader to the captain of Ludwig’s declaration, and ordered them to use the walkie-talkie to reach each team. Soldiers know.

As the radio wave spread to every corner of the team, the whole team was boiling.

"No fear! No mercy! Our honor is loyalty!"

"Speed ​​up! Our comrades are fighting alone!"

"All personnel are ready to fight!"

"Remember that the head of state is watching us!"

"Hi! Reinhardt!"

"Hi! Reinhardt!"

There was a response from commanders at all levels on the radio. Eventually, the entire team members shouted the long live slogan of the head of state, and the force of the guard brigade was already strong. The morale of the brigade was so strong that it almost lifted the roof of the troop transport truck. .

"Kill the **** Japanese! Kill them all!"

"I'm going to unscrew the heads of those Japanese monkeys myself!"

"My bayonet has long been hungry and impatient!"

The soldiers shouted loudly, desperately showing their desire to fight to the officers.

Almost half of the members of this brigade are young SS members. These young men are fanatical and simple. They have great admiration and loyalty to the Third Reich and the heads of state. After strict training, they will become a qualified and qualified soldier. They will themselves Everything is handed over to the country and the head of state. Once they accept the orders of their superiors, they will be more fearless and determined than ordinary army soldiers. Unless they fall on the road of attack, there is no power to stop them.

The other group is veterans who have served in the National Defense Forces. Due to various personal reasons, they have not been able to return to the army. Many of these people have undergone special professional training. Almost all of them are generalists on the battlefield. Many people Mastered more than one professional skill. These veterans have served in the army for a long time, and have been limping in the society for many years. They have been very experienced in life, and they are not so easy to instigate emotions, but they have one thing in common, that is, they have a self-esteem that exceeds ordinary people. The SS gave them the opportunity to put on military uniforms and go to the battlefield to show themselves again. Everyone cherishes everything they have right now. Anything that violates this collective is an unforgivable crime in their eyes and hurts them. A comrade-in-arms, the other party must pay a hundred lives to repay.

In order to hurry, the convoy carried out the last marshalling on the highway. Tractors and carts with a speed of less than fifty kilometers were left behind, and an unlucky infantry platoon was left to guard. After the regrouping, the speed of the entire team suddenly increased to 55 kilometers, which is the highest speed that can be reached on this kind of highway, and it may affect driving safety even sooner.

The four-wheeled armored vehicles in the armored platoon attached to the team headquarters rushed to the front of the team. The Powell car group was one of them, followed by the semi-tracked transporter of the brigade headquarters, followed by the Opel and Renault troop transport trucks of the brigade. Dozens of three-wheeled and two-wheeled motorcycles of the communication company and the security company are on alert on both sides of the truck fleet.

The team drove forward with full horsepower, and after turning over a hillside, the leading armored car suddenly saw several black and gray smoke pillars erected in the distance, and at the same time heard the fierce guns that could not be covered by the roar of the engine. Sound, the captain distinguished from the kwk30's dazzling, continuous rhythm shot. The second lieutenant secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The Powell car group was obviously not yet destroyed, and they were still persistently resisting.

"Advance at full speed! Comrades are waiting for our support!" The second lieutenant picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered the armored reconnaissance.
