Chapter 403: They actually sent us to the Middle East? As the sound of the tearing machine sounded, the German soldiers began to rush toward the target in front of them, led by Second Lieutenant Fred. The powerful firepower made the British troops on the battlefield dare not raise their heads at all. The remaining German soldiers took the opportunity to move forward. The German squad tactics were centered around machine guns. Because the MG42 machine gun has a long range and powerful firepower, the German army's tactics rely heavily on machine guns. Only after the machine guns have completely gained the upper hand will they continue to move forward. "Wang Defa, why is the German army so powerful?" "Damn, who can tell me why there are German troops here?" "Son of a bitch, I'm going to kill these Germans."
"Farke, where's the machine gun? Where's our machine gun." "Damn..." For a time, there were roars everywhere on the British army's position. They also didn't expect that the German troops would come along the trenches. At this moment, Fred and his men had reached the trench. It has to be said that the British army is still very good at building trenches. At least the trenches are still very luxurious now. The walls are all made of cement. It is obvious that the British army has a long-term plan. If they didn't rely on tactics to get into the trenches, it would be basically impossible to blast open the trenches with their little firepower. At least that's what Fred thought. Holding an MP38 submachine gun, Fred shot randomly in the distance. In a battlefield like this where bullets are flying everywhere, don't expect to be able to aim before shooting. Just pick up the weapon and shoot randomly. Whether you can hit or not depends purely on luck. The main thing is to suppress fire and make the other party feel fear. If you do this, you will get into panic. As long as people panic, they will make various mistakes. On the battlefield, these mistakes are fatal. The king is the one who fires first on the enemy. Regardless of whether he hits or not, if he scares others, he will have the opportunity to fire a second shot.
These are experiences gained by veterans with their blood. The British army was indeed startled and shrank directly. Seeing this, Fred immediately signaled his men to take out grenades. Count to three silently, and then throw them all towards the British trenches in the distance. boom! boom! boom! A series of explosions sounded. The screams of the British troops echoed in the trenches. Seeing this, Fred rushed out first. Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Seeing a British soldier still crawling on the ground, Fred immediately pulled the trigger and sent the man directly to see God to relieve the other man's pain. Seeing this, the other soldiers followed suit and pulled the triggers one after another at the British soldiers who were still breathing. Not long after, the soldiers carrying the military flag planted the flag, which meant that the place had been occupied by the German army. Then the Air Force will not come to bomb, otherwise, they may still be bombed by their own fighters. Not far from them, the first batch of landing troops had already begun to advance towards the depth of the British army. … "How is the landing?" Keitel, who had been waiting for the news, looked at the adjutant who came to deliver the news and asked. "At present, the first batch of troops has completed the landing and is advancing in depth." The adjutant said quickly. Hearing this, Keitel was stunned. He didn't expect the landing to be so smooth. "What about the British army? How did they behave?" Now Keitel was curious about what arrangements the British army would make. "It seems that there is no big performance. Their main force is still in Dover Port and Brighton. They still think that we will put the main attack there." The adjutant scratched his head and said. Several other people nearby also laughed. Keitel looked at Dönitz at the side. He didn't expect that the landing force of tens of thousands of people would have such a big surprise. Now he is hesitating whether to continue sending reinforcements and landing. "Marshal Dönitz, what do you think?" After thinking for a while, Keitel looked at Dönitz standing aside.
To this, Dönitz did not answer immediately, but thought about it. At the same time, he felt great admiration for Cun Yunsheng, whom he had never met before. This move was both false and true, but it frightened the British army. Even if it were them, they probably wouldn't be able to figure out the opponent's true direction of using troops. The British army thought that the German troops were landing on a large scale, but in fact, it was just a test. Even the original goal of the German army was to catch the big fish of the Royal Fleet. I just didn't expect that the login would be so smooth. So much so that Dönitz is now a little confused. Whether to continue landing or wait for the arrival of the royal fleet. The current German army is similar to the British army, and they don't know what their next offensive intention is. "Actually, I don't know either." Dönitz spread his hands and said that he didn't know either. Marshal Keitel was not surprised by this, because he had never planned to actually land on the British Isles from the beginning. After thinking for a while, Marshal Keitel spoke. "One thing to say, if the British army really withdraws its main force from the Port of Dover, maybe I will send more troops to land on the British Isles." "After all, it is indeed very close. It will save a lot of time and the logistical pressure will be much less." "At least our Dr. Speer won't be so tired, and won't complain to me so much." By the end, Keitel couldn't help but crack a joke. The German army's logistical pressure has been very high since the beginning of the war. When we originally attacked France, we could still rely on the complete infrastructure, so there were not so many complaints about logistics. However, as the war broke out between the Soviet Union and Germany, the messy infrastructure put increasing pressure on the German army's logistics, and there were many complaints. Even though Speer had tried every means to make adjustments, it still didn't work. Thanks to the newly opened front, there were only tens of thousands of German troops, which could barely provide supplies. If we really expand the scale, I'm afraid we won't be able to handle it. So Speer complained all the time. In this regard, Speer could only say helplessly. "The main focus is on multi-front operations. For logistics, the pressure is indeed very high. I suggest not to increase the number of troops." "Stabilizing the eastern front is the most important thing at the moment." Although Speer is not a military commander, all equipment production is now in his hands, so he still has a certain say.
At least the generals will listen. "Has there been any reaction from the Allied forces in the south?" Keitel did not answer immediately, but asked about the war situation in North Africa. According to his understanding, the US military is absolutely unwilling to see the British Isles fall, otherwise they will have no springboard if they want to attack the Europa continent. "There is no response at the moment, and they don't seem to care about our landing at all." "Perhaps the scale of the landing was too small and they didn't care." Dönitz added timely. Keitel did not refute this. In the past two years, they have also sent small troops to land, and without exception they basically failed. Because the follow-up troops cannot keep up, it means that the landing will inevitably fail. "Well, it's possible." Keitel nodded, and then looked at Speer aside. "What's going on with the North African Army? Are the supplies in place?" After hearing this, Speer quickly stood up and said. "Most of the supplies have arrived, and it will take some time for the rest." Hearing this, Keitel nodded again, was silent for a while, and then said. "In that case, let's maintain the status quo and continue to implement the previous plan." "In addition, inform Rommel and let him cross the Suez Canal to test the Allied forces' reaction." In fact, at this time Keitel had fully begun to implement the plan arranged by Cun Yunsheng for the German army. That is to cross the Suez Canal and occupy the entire Middle East Peninsula. Not to mention anything else, the German army could not refuse a rubber resource. "Yes." Everyone had no objection to this. … After Rommel's North African Army received the order, it easily crossed the canal. As the German troops crossed the canal, the shock caused was very great. Apart from anything else, Cun Yunsheng was directly called to Imphal by Stilwell. This made him wonder, what happened again? Is it possible to ask him to speed up? He felt that the current speed was already very fast. After all, he does not have a powerful navy at hand, and he has to consider the logistical pressure. When I met Stilwell, I found that this guy had gained weight. Yes! Because he no longer had those worries, Stilwell gained weight for the first time.
However, it can be seen from the other party's frown that the other party must be very troubled. "General Stilwell, you seem to have something on your mind?" Cun Yunsheng asked very thoughtfully. Hearing this, Stilwell sighed. "You should know about the European battlefield, right?" "Well, I heard about it, but it seems to have nothing to do with us, right?" Cun Yunsheng asked cautiously. He felt that even if the battlefield in Europe was bloody, it had nothing to do with them. Why did Stilwell actually care about the European battlefield? This surprised Cun Yunsheng. "The German troops have landed on the British Isles. Their intentions are unclear for the time being. It is not clear whether they really want to land or whether they are deliberately attacking the east and west." Stilwell said in a heavy tone. It has to be said that Stilwell still knows the Chinese culture very well, and he even knows how to attack the east and the west. "It should be a test, right?" Cun Yunsheng said in a fake tone. "Well, I also think it is a test. It is absolutely impossible for a landing force of tens of thousands of people to defeat hundreds of thousands of British troops." Stilwell nodded, obviously agreeing with Cun Yunsheng's judgment. Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng looked at the other party, waiting for the other party's next words. He knew that Stilwell would never simply say these two sentences. He must have other purposes. "But the Germans will take the opportunity to expand the scale of their landings, so now all parties are very worried about whether to send reinforcements to the British Isles." Stilwell continued. "Originally, we were preparing to mobilize reinforcements from the North African battlefield. As a result, Rommel crossed the Suez Canal not long ago and began to occupy the Middle East Peninsula. The current march is very fast and has occupied a large area of territory." Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng sneered in his heart. Of course he knew, and he had some credit for it. John Si was doing very well there. Ever since the German army crossed the Suez Canal, John Si had let the natives lead the way. It didn't take long to occupy a large area of territory, and not only that, but also wiped out many British bases. "General Stilwell, this seems to have nothing to do with us." Cun Yunsheng was really curious about what the other party had planned, so he pointed it out directly. In this regard, Stilwell did not have any dissatisfaction, but said seriously. "The White House hopes to dispatch an elite force from the Southeast Asian theater to the Middle East to help the troops there resist the German attack." Cun Yunsheng was immediately stunned. Deploy elite troops to the Middle East? What a joke. The Japanese army here has not yet been completely defeated. Why are you transferred from here? What about other war zones?
Not enough troops? It seems true. Because of his operations, the current number of troops in each theater is insufficient. First of all, on the Soviet-German battlefield, the main force of the Soviet army was basically on the front line. Originally, some troops were deployed south to attack Persia, but they quickly recovered and withdrew their troops again. But according to Cun Yunsheng's understanding, the Soviet army will definitely go south to Persia again due to their greed. As for the Soviet troops in the Far East, they still need to guard against Japanese sneak attacks, so they cannot be deployed. Then it is unrealistic to draw reinforcements from the Soviet army. Not to mention the British army, which suffered heavy losses in several battles, and now that the Germans have landed on their homeland, it would be a good idea not to allow the US military to support them. Deploy troops? What a joke. Didn't you realize that they can't even defend Tianzhu anymore, so they are still deploying troops? I am afraid that the British Empire will surrender on the spot. Then that leaves the US military. The . military is a big business, but it cannot sustain multi-front operations and must fully support its allies. As a result, some people are now unable to bear it. The more important point is that the . military did not have many troops at the beginning of the war. The existing military strength only began to expand after the war broke out. But there were only a million people, but hundreds of thousands were contained in the Pacific battlefield. Hundreds of thousands of people were also sent to the North African battlefield. After all, I don't have much troops left. Although recruitment has begun, new recruits will need some time to train. And one million is already a lot. If it were more, the US military would not be able to sustain it. So I looked around and found that there were no soldiers available. We cannot just watch the German army occupy the Middle East Peninsula and then connect with the Turkish army in Persia. That would be great fun. Finally, they decided to deploy a support force from the Southeast Asian battlefield. Looking at the entire Southeast Asia, it seems that there are not many troops that can fight.
After much selection, it seems that only the Nanyang Task Force can fight. After figuring out the ins and outs of the matter, Cun Yunsheng couldn't help cursing himself secretly, he should have known better than to do these things. "General Stilwell, can I not go?" Cun Yunsheng thought for a while and asked cautiously. "What do you think?" Stilwell looked at him with a half-smile. "I think it's okay." Cun Yunsheng asked tentatively. "Huh, definitely not. Don't refuse in a hurry. I know your difficulties. The current situation in Nanyang cannot be separated from the Nanyang Task Force, but the North African battlefield is more important. The only one closest to the Middle East now is us. As for the Japanese army in Nanyang , has been beaten to death by your troops." Stilwell stretched out his hand to signal the other party not to worry and listen to what he said. "The remaining islands are not of much value, and the Japanese army's focus is now on Australia. Deploying some troops will not affect the overall war situation." (End of chapter)
