Battle of the Third Reich
Vol 5 Chapter 141: The end of disaster
Just after noon, a thick cumulus cloud appeared over the originally sunny strait, and the wind began to increase. ∈↗, the lights outside the door of the German military headquarters finally went out. The service personnel opened the thick curtains and opened and closed the doors and windows all day and night. A sea breeze with a smell of seawater blows in from the window, blowing away the muddy air filled with nicotine in the room.
"So, Guderian is still fooled." Xu Jun picked up the coffee delivered by Disenhofen and looked up and drank.
The head of state is still wearing the uniform two days ago. The well-dressed straight military uniform is now crumpled. The style button and the white shirt button inside are unbuttoned, and the shiny Knight Iron Cross medal is hanging loosely. On the neck.
"We have calculated it, and we can still extract this number." Yoder took a form from the adjutant and handed it to Kettle. The chief of operations is now a very tired look, and the hair that was originally sparse is now greasy on the back of the head.
"We can trust General Bock's ability, which is not a problem for him at all, and he should make a list of what he wants. At least ten submarine pipelines need to be laid at present, to ask the French whether there is any inventory there. "Marshal Brauchic took off his military uniform long ago, and he is now fighting the roast chicken in front of him with his sleeves.
The commander-in-chief of the German Army skillfully tore off a chicken leg and handed it to the chief of staff around him. Halder was chewing with a piece of bread, and when he saw the boss inexplicably handing over a chicken leg, he didn't think it was a bite to take it.
After two days of uninterrupted work, the command staff had long thrown away the tedious etiquette. The front line was as powerful as the broken bamboo, but they did not know how much hard work was included in the rear organs. The generals of the command headquarters paid for this. How much energy.
Armaments and postures have become insignificant details, and every minute is precious in the twenty-four hours of the initial landing. Although they do not directly direct the frontline operations, they must always follow the rules. Use the latest information to conduct battlefield deduction. The deployment of materials and troops, liaison and command of the Air Force and Navy, to develop a corresponding response plan for possible accidents. The Battle of Dover is even more important than the previous Battle of Dunkirk. If it wins, Germany will make history again. To further fulfill the dreams of countless ancestors over the centuries, to push Germany to the top of Europa.
"Gudrian almost tilted his nose angrily. That Lieutenant General Mason is a character. I really want to go to the other side now and take a look at Guderian's present expression." Halde chewed the fat chicken. I finally knew that I wiped the oil from the corners of my mouth with a handkerchief. In the past two days, this has become the norm. The generals eat when they are thirsty, and the general restaurant serves various hot meals 24 hours.
"How could he think that the British lieutenant actually played this hand, but the navy lieutenant really helped us a lot. How did General Lundstead's reply have not yet arrived. As long as our transport ship is not safe Berthed into those two ports, the battle could not be considered over." Xu Jun stood up and walked to the huge map on the wall. He held a pointer in his hand and threw it **** the map. on.
"Gentlemen! With more effort, we are about to go to the UK!"
"Hi! Reinhardt!" The generals and marshals cheered in unison to their heads of state.
Guderian's mood is depressed now, not because of changes in the fighting. Instead, he was shaved by a British admiral. How could he know that Dover would be so messed up as he is now, that the admiral did indeed surrender the order, but he did not tell Guderian that he had lost control of his subordinates, he What he can represent at present is only himself and the only communication link left.
So Guderian was fooled and he gleefully reported his victory to the headquarters, Dover was already in the hands of the German Wehrmacht. Then reality slapped him hard, and the infantry troops that had entered the city were attacked by both the defenders and the defeated soldiers.
Germany sent an infantry platoon. As the leader of the entire army, the selected elite was recognized by the whole division. Also accompanied by the team was a staff member at Guderian Command. As the surrender liaison representative of the German army. The major tried to convince the soldiers that this was only an armed march, and it was so easy to enter the city and reach the British headquarters.
The infantry did not think so. They had encountered many scams in France. The soldiers don’t care what they think, after all, they are desperately on the front line, so the infantry did not relax their vigilance, but still lined up in the urban combat formation to search and advance, and as a result, the pilot platoon broke into a British army. At the scene of the fire, two groups of British troops were fighting across the street.
The sudden addition of a third party surprised the British. It seemed to them that they remembered that there were Germans outside the city. The position of the German infantry platoon was very bad. They did not have any cover on the empty road, so the two groups of British people opened fire on the German infantry.
The German infantry responded quickly, and they quickly retreated while fighting back. This is no longer a problem of surrender. The situation on the British side is too strange, and it must be reported to the superior immediately.
Only two soldiers in the infantry platoon were slightly injured, but the chief of staff was too eye-catching, so he was set on fire by the British and was sifted by rioters on the spot. The infantry platoon was in danger and was eager to evacuate from the scene, so it was unable to bring his body back.
In fact, the German intervention could have obtained a better ending, only because of the conditional reflex, these British soldiers were eventually sent to fight the Germans, so they only subconsciously attacked after seeing the German uniform. But after the fight, both sides regretted it. In fact, they should surrender directly. God knows why the ghosts and gods opened fire on the Germans, watching the German major lying on the ground like a broken sack. Both sides were crying without tears for a moment. Then I don't know who got up first, and the two started to ping pong and refute the fire.
After receiving the report, Guderian was furious. There were such brazen people in the world. He said that he surrendered and opened fire on the surrendered team. What is more hateful is that the surrendered team did not even reach the headquarters. After hitting back, do you even want the most basic shame cloth?
So Guderian sent Mason a complaint filled with anger and fierce language, accusing the other person of unreliable villain behavior. This matter is definitely not over. When the Germans defeat Dover, the other side will pay a heavy price. The telegram was also sent out in plain code. Guderian was stunned by anger. He never thought that the telegram would be slapped by the Germans. When it was discovered, it was too late.
Guderian also did not expect that his telegram caused a series of chain reactions. One of them was that Lieutenant General Mason, who was called by everyone at the previous moment, was applauded in London and was buried in the underground shelter. That depressed gloomy atmosphere was swept away, and the original wise Lieutenant General Mason was defrauding. Looking at the German's irritable appearance, it must have been a big loss. Lord Mason was indeed a brave wisdom and a model of the imperial soldiers.
Guderian's telegram made the German commander's office jump, because at the moment when he announced the victory, according to the original plan, the fourth wave of landing troops led by Ronde Stede and Manstein took place Just starting from the port of Calais, this is a fleet of fifteen large cruise ships that will dock at Folkestone and Port Dover. Now that the ships have been dispatched, you tell me that the port has not yet arrived. This is not a joke, this is to kill.
The headquarters quickly called for an emergency stop to the landing troops and asked them to stand by in the middle of the strait. As a result, the news came that Folkestone had indeed got it, so the wave of Manstein continued to go on the road, and Ronde Stede continued to float in the middle of the sea waiting for follow-up orders. The admiral had suffocated his anger at this time. If Goodrian could not get the Dover port area as soon as possible, the end would be very ugly.
Guderian was really irritated. He had never hated an enemy so much. In the past, the two sides battled in his eyes only to be loyal to their duties and fulfill the responsibility of a soldier. There is no personal hatred between the two sides, and he is also known for being kind to the enemy and full of knighthood. But this time the situation was different. It was really a shame. He vowed to shoot the shameless liar with his own hands. But he didn't expect that before he ordered an attack, the big liar came to his headquarters alone.
Mason has been prepared for the worst psychological preparation. The German's anger is very obvious in the message. He can also understand the other commander's mood, and it may become more intense if he shows himself. At least these Germans are now restrained and have not made any terrible move to flatten Dover. He saw the strong lineup of the Germans along the way, and they were fully capable and capable of accomplishing that kind of atrocities.
Mason put a white flag on his car and exited the city directly from the path behind the Dover fortress. He almost made a half-circle around Dover, and was unexpectedly captured by a German army.
The German commander who led the team was informed that a British lieutenant was in front of him. He was ready to discuss the issue of surrender with General Guderian. The German commander who was not aware of the frontline was very enthusiastic. He assigned a German armored grenadier platoon to **** Mason to land. The cluster command strictly ordered the leader of the platoon to ensure the safety of the British Admiral.
When the British scammer who made himself famous and almost became a laughing stock stood in front of him, Gudrian found out that he did not know what to do with the other party. Mason sincerely apologized to Guderian, and gave a comprehensive account of Dover’s current status. It was not that he did not want to lead the troops to surrender, but that the team was scattered all over the country, and the unified command was completely lost. There is a bunch of rebellious and ruined army wantonly, Dover is in urgent need of the German army's intervention. If the German army can calm the riots in the city, the German army will enter the famous city as a liberator and rescuer instead of an aggressor.
After listening to Mason’s remarks, Guderian couldn’t help but move. This was a great opportunity to gain fame for the German army. This is no longer a military issue, but involves the political field. Can the German army make a difference? It's unclear, but it will more or less help some follow-up operations.
Guderian immediately drafted a report to the headquarters, and at the same time issued an order for the whole army to enter Dover. Guderian hopes that Mason can cooperate with the Germans in entering the city, because Mason is still the supreme leader of the British army in the city. He needs Mason to point out the targets of the attack to the Germans, and it is best to regain the command of the defenders and order them. lay down your weapon.
Mason immediately agreed to Guderian’s request. He even proposed to go to the front line, calling on his soldiers to stop their resistance. On this day, the British had shed enough blood, and Dover’s fall was irreversible. He didn't want to see anyone making unnecessary sacrifices for it.
Mason followed a German combat engineer unit into the city in a semi-tracked transport vehicle. The task of this unit is to destroy all obstacles on the offensive road and pave the way for subsequent units to attack.
The addition of Mason made the work unexpectedly smooth. The Admiral of the Navy was very popular among the local defenders. Almost every Dover garrison knew this unsmiling but unusually kind commander. So when Mason sent a horn to the British army encountered on the road and issued a surrender order, almost no one expressed resistance. They obediently walked out of their respective bunkers and then followed the German instructions to put the weapon Come to one place and put them together.
Some British officers were selected by Mason, many of which were originally directly under the fortress command. These officers were assigned to the follow-up German troops, and they each followed a German army and divided into multiple ways to advance towards the city. Thanks to the help of these officers and surrender sergeants, the German advancement speed was obviously improved. Not only a large number of defending officers and soldiers surrendered, but even a part of the collapsed army joined the surrendering team.
In fact, these people have long been tired of fighting, but can't find a reason to lay down their weapons. Those venomous compatriots are still firing bullets at themselves, and they can only fight back with their scalps. Many troops have run out of food and the soldiers can't even drink a sip of water, let alone eat something.
Now seeing the Germans march into the city with mighty force, the team also carried officers of the British army, the other party also conveyed the command of the commander-in-chief, asking all British troops to lay down their weapons and surrender immediately. At this time, they didn't wait down the ladder and wait longer, where could they find a better reason for surrender. They didn't surrender without fighting, but because they obeyed the commander's order, they were not cowards, they just fulfilled their duties.
A large number of British soldiers surrendered to the Germans, and only a small part of the collapsed army still resisted with their weapons and favorable terrain. These people are not reluctant to surrender to the Germans. They dreamed of doing it half a day ago, but now they have embarked on a path of no return. They have looted a group of civilians and merchants and committed a lot of heinous atrocities. .
These people regretted their actions at this time. They cut off their own way. Now, no matter which side they surrender, the collapse of the army who was once a soldier and now a gangster will definitely be ruthless by both sides. Liquidation.
Some British soldiers told the Germans what the thugs did and the brutality they committed. As a result, the German soldiers present were filled with righteous indignation. The German army immediately launched an action and vowed to give these beasts with human skin the punishment they deserved. Under the guidance of the surrendering British soldiers, the German infantry walked around behind the resistance and burned these gangsters to their ashes with a fiery fire dragon.
The last battle in the Dover theater took place at the Fort Fort. The garrison garrison commander showed the Germans the spirit of a British Army officer. He dismissed all the gunners and infantry and ordered them to surrender to the Germans under the fort. He climbed to the top of the lookout platform and lowered the flying rice flag.
The commander wore the military flag he defended to death, pulled out his pistol and shot at the Germans outside the city. The German infantry stood quietly under the fortress, watching the tragic scene in front of him, and finally the officer shot the last bullet. Shot into his head, the body wrapped in the military flag fell from the fortress, and the blood stained the snow-white limestone of the fort.
The huge cruise ship carrying the Lundstad Legion slowly drove into the port of Dover with a whistle. This city, which has experienced hundreds of years of storms and vicissitudes, welcomed the army from a foreign country for the first time. From this moment, The glory of the British Empire is gone, and an era is over. (To be continued.)
