Battle of the Third Reich
Vol 5 Chapter 99: Deere Highway
At noon on the d-day, a small Austin-brand Tilly car was moving in the direction of Deere on the main road from Dover to Deere. This car painted with tan and grass-green camouflage is like an agile antelope, circumventing potholes and obstacles dexterously, keeping a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.
"Slow down, Edward, don't be so fast, God! Beware of the pit!" Lieutenant Howard of the British Army clasped the handle of the co-pilot position and shouted at his comrade-in-arms. They finally escaped from that hell, but they didn't want to know that they died on this highway inexplicably because of a car accident. That was really ridiculous.
"Relax, Andy, you have to believe in my skills. I'm a professional player. I have participated in three World Rallyes." Lieutenant Edward comforted his friend with confidence. He supported the steering wheel with one hand and pressed it on the gear with one hand. , With a relaxed expression, and a cigarette in his mouth.
Tilly is the nickname of this vehicle model. Before the war, the British Army had a single type of transportation and lacked small vehicles. The British Army placed orders with some civil car companies to request a light passenger and cargo based on the civilian car. Dual-use model. In fact, it is to change the rear body of the car into a freight car. It seems to be a pickup, but unlike the pickup, the front cab of the Tilly car is connected to the cargo compartment, and the structure is more like World War II. The later appeared in the Jeep.
This Tilly car driven by Edward is produced by the old British auto factory in Austin. The modified basic model is the famous Austin 8 car. It has a solid structure and reliable performance. It is equipped with a 900cc four-cylinder gasoline engine and can reach a maximum speed of seven per hour. ten kilometers.
"You have participated in the three Grand Prix, but there is no one full run, I don't want to be killed by you, hell..." Tilly suddenly turned a corner, bypassing a mound on the road, There was a female scream in the back compartment.
"It's okay, ladies. Don't worry, at this speed, we can reach Deere before lunch, and we will be safe when we get there." Edward held the steering wheel. Turned his face and said to the rear compartment.
"Hi! Looking at the road! Man! Looking at the road!" Howard yelled in fright.
"You are such a coward, Howard, do you think you are as good as the two ladies." Edward turned back, disdainful at the friend's fuss.
"Annie, you and Katie are okay in the back. If I don't sit comfortably, I can change position with you." Howard turned back and said to the two beautiful female soldiers in the rear compartment.
Annie is a beautiful black-haired beauty with big eyes, nose, snowy lips, soft and delicate facial lines, and looks like a statue of a maid in the Greek Temple of the Moon. Katie is a standard Scottish beauty, with fiery red hair curled up high, revealing a slender white neck, and a boat-shaped cap crooked crookedly above her head. There are some faint freckles on the delicate cheeks, which not only does not destroy her beauty, but also adds a bit of innocence and playfulness. The two beauties still maintained their elegant manners in the bumpy rear compartment, but each had a trace of anxiety and fear in their expressions, Tan mouth opened slightly, and Emei frowned, which was called my pity.
"It's okay, Howard, we're just a little worried, how long will it take to get to your base, you promised to send us to London. I can trust you, Howard." Howard's male instinct awakened instantly when he saw the beauty in dismay. , Adrenaline secretion and hormone index have skyrocketed. Suddenly filled with blood and blood, he was full of pride.
"Of course, my dear, you can trust me, of course, hurry up! Edward, we have to get to Deere as soon as possible." Howard turned back and said loudly to the former professional racer.
"Relax, buddy, at this rate. It will take up to twenty minutes. Katie, when you get to the base, you two remember to follow us closely, don’t talk to other people, wait for a little rest after lunch, we will be together in the afternoon. "Go." Edward smoothly changed gears and stepped on the accelerator hard. The small Tilly car again increased its speed, and it drove forward like a car.
Howard patted his comrades' shoulders, then nodded vigorously at the two beauties with his most determined expression. Seeing the beauties showing him a sweet smile again, Howard turned back with confidence.
They and these two beauties met on the streets of Dover. Howard is the company commander of the Coast Guard Company in Fort Dill, and Edward is the company commander of the Fort Garrison. The lives of these two people have been entangled since the elementary school age. The two people went to elementary school, middle school, and military school together. They were assigned to this coastal defense camp that was not hurt by their father and their mother. Long, they were eventually thrown together at Deer Beach, and the two fortresses were less than two kilometers apart. These two people are just like Siamese babies.
Before dinner yesterday, the two of them received an order from Dover Command and asked them to go to Dover Command immediately for a meeting. The two lieutenants didn't even have time to eat, jumped on the only Tilly car of the two infantry companies, and flew all the way to Dover.
This meeting is as boring as usual. In addition to a lot of clichés, it is to receive this week's defense plan and newsletter. Why is it called this week, because the group of big men in London engage in war games at two ends for three days, and once they push out a bunch of new ideas, then they start to change their plans and make plans, from version 1.0 all the way to the rx0080mkii version, which is simply Zhou Geng Rhythm. Therefore, a booklet is basically produced every week, sometimes sent by the commander of the command, and sometimes they are called to Dover for collection, depending on the mood of the commander, such as the commander of the day The adults missed everyone, so they gathered together for a dinner.
For this defense plan, Howard believes that there is no value even as a toilet reading, because the paper is too hard, and it is easy to hurt the delicate pp. Howard’s role in their company is similar to that of a humanoid alarm. They only need to scream after seeing the Germans. They didn’t expect them to resist the Germans’ attacks. The two companies couldn’t even get a rifle. With one hand, the guy who ordered them to fight will be scolded by others for being inhuman.
After the meeting, the big guy happily rushed to the officer’s restaurant for dinner. Several garrison company commanders complained to the battalion commander after pouring a few drafts of beer. The Royal Air Force was incompetent, the Royal Navy was mentally disabled, our army was weak, God The horses are all floating clouds. Howard and Edward cannot see this ugliness. They quietly greeted the battalion commander, drove away from the fortress, and ran to Dover.
Two ensigns happily drove straight to the frequent bar. The owner of this store had a military background. In the past, it only received officers from the base and surrounding areas. In addition to sufficient food supplies and a wide variety of alcoholic beverages, you can also buy many rare things that are not available on the market.
While parking, they met Anne and Katie who were standing on the street looking around. The two lieutenants were instantly attracted by each other's beauty. The next thing is to make a conversation, invite, and have dinner together. The two beauties were female soldiers of the Royal Dover Air Force Women’s Volunteer Team, one was a corporal and the other was a senior soldier. He was a telephone operator at the base air force communications office. It happened to be two days of vacation. The two had a friend to come out for dinner. The pigeons were released.
The tall and handsome men on both sides, and the feminine and charming women, are also soldiers. There are a lot of common topics, the two sides have a lot of talk, and they will get acquainted in a short time. Everyone is an adult. After drinking enough, they can’t help but have some other ideas, and the atmosphere soon becomes ambiguous. Got up.
During the war, this term became the reason for the indulgence of countless British men and women at that time. The two pairs of people quickly found a small hostel, and the scene will not be described in detail. One o'clock. Just as everyone was sleeping soundly, the bombardment of the German heavy artillery began.
Two men and women awoke from the bed, ran downstairs with their clothes wrapped in sheets and crawled with them, and hid in the air-raid shelter dug in the backyard of the hotel. This night. They spent their time in panic and hesitation. In the backyard of this hotel, you can directly see the Dover white rock in the distance, and the fortress is built on the white rock.
Dense fireballs rose in this fortress, and the tumbling thunder and thunder continued to roll in the air. They saw with their own eyes the magnificent Dover Castle collapsing against the background of fire, and also saw a deflected cannonball halve a five-story building two blocks away from them, and a huge fireball rose. . Throwing countless debris and burning debris into the air, and then scattered on the roofs and streets of the surrounding houses. People screamed and madly screamed, but they could not hear their own voices at all. Shock waves shattered brick walls, torn wires and broken street lights, shattered the entire row of buildings into pieces, and the streets were like a crystal rain.
The terrible power of large-caliber heavy artillery caused a great psychological shadow in the hearts of two young men and women. They began to doubt whether they could live to see the end of the war. Two pairs of people snuggled and hid in that shallow hole, the women began to cry quietly, the man was biting his teeth with his face, his eyes were staring at the fire, and his body shook slightly with every roar .
They found that if the castle that they were guarding was subjected to such shelling, it would only take one minute to turn the two seemingly spectacular buildings into rubble. They began to worry about their future.
The shelling did not begin to sparse until nine o'clock in the morning. At this time, the entire Dover Harbor area was completely unrecognizable, with debris everywhere, full of gravel ruins, collapsed houses blocking the street, and a large number of fire heads finally gathered into the sea of fire The thick black smoke enveloped the entire city, the soldiers ran to call signs, the wounded wept and wailed, and the scene was like the end of the world.
The two men and women wore military uniforms and walked out of the door of the hotel tremblingly, but unexpectedly discovered that the Tilly parked in front of the door was unscathed, and even the paint had not been wiped off, still quietly parked in front of the hotel. .
Edward and Howard were overjoyed. They quickly got on the bus and caught fire. The two people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the rhythmic roar of the engine. They were surrounded by the metal sheet of the car, giving them a lot of security.
Howard asked the two female soldiers if they had a foothold, and they could drive them away. Unexpectedly, the two beauties made an unexpected request and they wanted to return to London.
Last night, they watched the air force communications tower in the corner of the fortress blown to pieces. The horrible scene scared them. The romantic feelings from the guardian state had become so unreal before the cruel reality. They did not want to Like friends on duty that night, the death was so miserable. They decided to leave this dangerous city and return to their home in London while it was still too late.
They asked if Howard and Edward would be convenient if they could send them out of the city, and then they would find a way to go home by car.
Looking at the look that the beauties looked forward to, the men walked to the side to discuss. In the end, the two ensigns not only promised to take the other person out of town, but even expressed their willingness to send them back to London in person.
Howard and Edward actually have their own plans. Seeing that German firepower was so fierce, this battle was clearly unbeatable. The two lieutenants had actually discussed it privately at night, and the Germans were obviously preparing to land. It is a day or two at most to go ashore, and rely on the waste wood under your own hands. If there is no way to make a living at war, surrender may be a way, but I heard that the German prisoner of war camp seems to have a hard time.
Just when they struggled to find a way out. The demands of the two beauties brightened their eyes. Looking at the upbringing, talking and posture of these two women, they will definitely not be from ordinary people. If they are sent to London, they may develop a further relationship and find another way out.
So the four people sat in the Tilly car, rushed out of downtown Dover, and went straight to Deere along the county road.
"Now we are on the Deere Highway, after the executioner trail is the Dover Highway, and then the station trail, there is a farm called West Cave on the edge. When the owner is still there, Edward and I often Go there as a guest. Now the farm is requisitioned by the army, and the farm owner is said to have gone to the United States, and it is also said that it is Chile. Anne, have you been to the United States?" Howard talked to the beauty along the way.
"I've been to the United States with my father. We went to New York, Washington, and Chicago. I don't like it. The society is full of upstart impetuousness, but the scenery there is good. We took the train across the western United States. The magnificent scenery there is fascinating. I can’t describe it with words at all. I have seen the red-skinned Indians. The wild culture impressed me deeply.” Anne said to Howard with a smile.
"It's really enviable. Edward and I have never left the UK. If there is a chance, I must go out and see." When Anne spoke, Howard kept nodding and smiled, but he was already happy. . He has already determined that the beauty in front of him must be a rich girl, where ordinary girls may have such rich experience. And so on. Katie's family, which is no different from Anne, must not be far behind.
Howard turned his head and found that Edward was also turning to look at him. The two of them already had a tacit understanding, and then they exchanged a clear look with a smile.
"The executioner's trail ahead... hey? Why is there a checkpoint here? We didn't come when we came."
The executioner trail and the Dover highway form a crossroads. On the side of the junction is an old cottage, and Howard remembers it seems to be called Gagate Farm. Now on the road near the farm, two rows of herringbone Luzhai cross the middle of the road. A circle of barbed wire is wrapped around the Luzhai. A shooting bunker is piled with sandbags on the side of the barricade and a Bren machine gun is mounted on it. , A Walsley military car parked next to the bunker. A dozen military policemen with red hats and big brimmed hats stood behind the barricade. One of the military policemen raised a parking warning sign high against Tilly, and waved the other hand to the side to signal the other side to park.
"It's a hell, you don't have to talk at all, leave it to me." Edward whispered to the woman in the trunk, then slowed down and stopped slowly next to the barricade.
"Sir, please show your ID." Several military policemen approached, and the leading sergeant saluted Edward before extending his hand to him.
"I'm Lieutenant Edward of the Fortman Fortman Company. What happened, I remember that no checkpoints have ever been set up here."
"Military secrets, excuse me for no comment." The military police took the documents back and forth to compare Edward's photos.
"Your document, sir." The military policeman lowered his head and said to Howard on the side of the co-pilot.
"No problem." Howard took out the document from the chest pocket of the uniform and handed it to the sergeant Gendarmerie.
"The two young ladies, please show your documents." The military police did not look at Howard's documents. He looked down at the two female soldiers sitting in the rear compartment from the window.
"Are you looking for someone? Paratrooper or German spy." Edward took their documents from the two female soldiers and handed them to the military police.
"Excuse me, sir."
The gendarmerie turned back and forth and looked at the document in his hand. He looked down at the car and turned around to the barricade, whispering with several other gendarmerie.
Edward felt that the situation seemed to be a bit wrong. Normally, the general military police had read the documents and felt that they had no problem and immediately let them pass, but today they did not do so, could it be that they had committed something?
Just as Edward was cranking around, several military policemen slowly came over. They stood around the Tilly car and formed an encircling circle. The military police sergeant walked to the door of the car and saluted Edward once again.
"Please get off the car with Lieutenant Howard. We have to ask you a few questions. The two ladies will stay in the car first. I hope you can cooperate." After talking about the lieutenant of the military police, he took two steps back and put his hand on his waist holster. On the road, several military policemen slightly raised the muzzle of the Thomson submachine gun and pointed at Tilly in front.
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate." Edward shouted quickly. He pushed the door to get out of the car and spread his hands out to signal that he was not ready to resist.
"I'm sorry, Lieutenant. It's a routine business. I hope you will be considerate. Please join me with Lieutenant Howard. We have set up an office in the Gagate Farm. It's just a routine investigation. If there is no problem, we will let you leave immediately." The Gendarmerie Lieutenant stood by the road, his arms spread out, and he pointed to the farmhouse beside. "Sirs, please here."
Standing at the side of the car, Howard turned to smile at Annie in the car and said, "Relax, it's okay, we will come back soon." After he finished, he took a few steps to catch up with Edward, and the two officers were escorted by the military police. The farm walked. (To be continued.)
