Battle of the Third Reich
Vol 5 Chapter 201: Assault in Cyprus (1)
The black shiny leather boots stepped on the terrazzo floor, the iron heels inlaid on the heels of the boots rattled, and Sterling Muller strode on the steps of the headquarters building of Bijinshan Air Force Base with a serious expression on. This building and a series of outbuildings around it have been completely preserved, because the Cypriot Corps has long booked it as the seat of the Legion Command during the Battle of London.
In order to implement the London campaign plan, the Germans have assembled troops of more than fifteen divisions around the city. Together with logistics and various subsidiary units, the total strength of the army units is close to 200,000. The Air Force directly transferred the two elite fighter wings to near London, and these fierce vultures took this airspace into the bag without any effort.
At present, the German Air Force Command is gathering the bomber wing in their hands, and their Stuka wing is moving back from the high speed of southern France. The two core wings of the Army Air Force being formed were also transferred to Calais, preparing to test the success of the head of state’s tactical ideas in actual combat.
Such a large number of troops are all concentrated in this area of 70 kilometers, and finding a suitable headquarters is a headache. A standard infantry division light headquarters has more than 150 personnel, plus a unit directly under the division and a bunch of subsidiary organs, such as guards, air defense, military supplies, ordnance, maintenance, health, communications, veterinarians, engineers , Gendarmerie, post office, these units have large battalion level and small company level.
As a high-level military commander's stationing location, it is not a casual thing. The selected location should not only have convenient transportation, water and electricity, but also enough open areas to park vehicles and stockpile materials, and must have a wide view Conducive to air defense operations.
Outskirts of London is a large hilly area, dense residential complex roads. Although the urban infrastructure has been well done, it is convenient for people to live in and does not meet military needs. The original British barracks became the best choice. But after all, there are only a few barracks, and compared with the huge number of German troops, there are really few monks. However, Cyprus does not have to worry about these issues at all. Kettle had already arranged everything for the heads of the heads.
Cyprus, as the legion directly under the head of state, is not only beautiful in name. She, like the Hydera Corps, has become a symbol of power for the head of state. This huge military unit, which was originally built, is now astonishingly powerful. In the later period of the French campaign, under the command of Manstein, this legion continuously broke through several solid defense lines of the French army, and successively captured and annihilated more than 200,000 French troops. Commander General Mueller participated as a representative of the German Army. Parade of parades in Paris.
Major General Mueller, the army commander, became famous in Germany because of the dramatic forced landing on the Champs Elysées. Like Rommel, he became a rising star in the German Army for a time. Speaking of Rommel once was Mueller's head boss, but the major general's starting point is much lower than Rommel, it can be said that his success is all dependent on the head of state to give his full support behind it.
Mueller was also very self-aware, he could feel the pressure from the golden epaulets on his shoulders, especially the hot eyes of the command staff who were full of jealousy. If he can’t put in 100% of his efforts and come up with results that affirm the world and his colleagues, he may not erase the brand marks of the head’s “favored officials” in his life.
But Mueller also has his advantage. He is only in his thirties and has a lot of time and energy to prove his personal ability. He stepped past the ranks of school officers. In three months, the distance that an ordinary military officer can only complete in twenty years is completed. This of course will envy jealousy and criticism, but he is confident. It will definitely capture the corresponding merits and keep everyone shut up.
Judging from the current situation, Mueller's performance really satisfied Xu Jun, and his character also earned him a lot of bonus points in front of his colleagues. There was no self-satisfied upstart in his body, and all he saw was bravery. Noble qualities such as steadfastness, justice, kindness, etc., in the words of Weiller, are like a medieval Germanic knight, quite ancient.
but. His problems are similar to Hans, and the military level has become the biggest shortcoming. After all, he was just a battalion commander when he started, and he hasn't studied the basic course of senior commander. Weierle had once confessed to Mueller before he played in England. After the end of this battle, the head of state will transfer him to the post of the headquarters.
Weierle asked Mueller not to worry about it, because this transfer just represented that the head of state was very important to him. Serving in the headquarters is the easiest way to obtain senior qualifications for senior officers. He has had experience in the headquarters. , Will be very helpful to him in the next step.
At the same time, Weierle also told Mueller that during his tenure in the war office, he would be arranged to study at the Berlin Military Academy. He must complete the senior commander course, so that he might have access to the command of the group army.
Mueller strode on the three-story corridor of the building, followed by his staff aide and two guards. The Legion Command had just settled in the building. The corridor was full of command officers and documents carrying office supplies and office supplies. soldier. Along the way, Mueller continued to return his military salute to his subordinates. After a long period of effort, he had gained recognition and respect from all officers and men.
"Is he here?" Mueller stopped at the door of the room at the top of the hallway and turned to ask his adjutant.
"Yes, sir." The young lieutenant nodded affirmatively.
"Open the door." Mueller said to the guard with a gun in front of the door.
"Yes, General." The guards pressed their chest hard, then lowered the rifle and removed the key from the belt to open the iron lock on the door.
"You are guarding outside, Heince, you follow me." Mueller turned his head and said to the guard, then he stepped forward and pushed open the door of the tan paint.
It seems that this was originally an office, the decoration is very simple, obviously the level will not be too high. The style of the Royal Air Force is about low-key luxury, because of the abundant funds, these days the arrogance and the Royal Navy enjoy the same trend. Mueller did not know much about these fashionable luxury goods, he was just a German middle class.
The German Major General walked into the room and settled. He first looked around the room and then aimed his eyes at the object behind the desk in the room. A middle-aged man wearing a uniform of the British Army general.
At the critical moment, the Battle of England is coming to an end, and the follow-up ending plot is being planned. It takes a lot of thought and time to describe the collapse of an imperial capital, so today's content is less, I hope everyone can understand. (To be continued.)
