Chapter 407: One step ahead
Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!
The head of state, Akado, once again dropped the already remembered Mercedes, and went to the port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands in the early morning of February 11, where the A group army on the north had just arrived, and the German Netherlands was also gathered here 4,000 ships of different sizes in Norway and Denmark.
Germany made up its mind to make a quick decision and landed on the British mainland for the final blow. Action codename "Overlord". Akado as the German head of state will personally supervise this battle, and the German naval, air and military forces will unite to carry out the largest landing operation plan in human history.
The Air Force will dispatch 2,000 fighter jets and 1,500 bombers of various types to completely destroy the British landing site in southeastern England. Destroy all obstacles on the coastline, bomb all nearby British airports and defensive positions, and expel every British aircraft from the airspace of the landing area.
The navy will gather 2 Italian battleships, 3 French battleships, and 17 cruisers to ensure the suppression of the landing area. These warships have bypassed Spain and converged on the Brest military port. Although the use of these warships greatly reduced the confidentiality of landings, Germany had not concealed its intention to land in England, so there was no need for confidentiality.
Of course, the specific landing time and landing location are absolutely confidential. The Navy has equipped a liaison officer for each Italian and French battleship. The mission objectives will not be announced until the fleet has sailed according to the principle of confidentiality.
At the same time, Germany requisitioned almost all the ships it could find, some were real landing ships, some were temporarily modified landing ships, and more were civilian ships that could only send the total number of landing forces needed by Germany to the beach.
The first batch of troops to board the British included the famous 1st Division of the Army in the A Group Army, and the 1st Division of the Marine Corps that was newly established by the Navy less than a year ago, and an armored battalion of the 2nd Armored Division of the 2nd Armored Army. The fate of the SS Akkado Youth Corps, as well as the direct engineering unit of the entire army, as well as the 200 SS Special Forces of the 0th Division. The total strength is about 40,000 people. It is responsible for rushing to the beach and landing at the beginning, and occupying the beach area that the subsequent troops need to go ashore.
This time, the Army has made a **** preparation and is ready to knock a big enough mouth on the solid coastline of Britain. More than half of the 40,000 soldiers who participated in the French campaign, 1,000 of them were even elite in the era of the National Defense Forces. They prepared all the equipment that could be considered, and endured a full 10 days of high-intensity landing training, and even Akado distributed some of the recruits with morphine, using excitement to fill the fear of combat.
The landing site was selected in the Norwich area, which is far away but extremely flat. The advantage is that the terrain is very suitable for the deployment of armored forces. The disadvantages are the same as those in the Normandy region of France. There is a lack of important port cities.
However, the German head of state proposed an innovative pontoon port design, which allows the German landing forces to supplement materials in the wild areas without ports-Germany roughly calculated the material throughput. When the Atlantic weather is good, this pontoon The dock can provide the necessary supplies for 100,000 German soldiers.
Of course, Akado also has a huge air superiority and means of supplying supplies by transport aircraft. If the two aspects are added together, it should be no problem to ensure the battle of the 120,000 army. The only thing that makes Lundstedt timid is when the time comes. To what extent will the British counterattack power.
The Norwich area provided by the spy has many railway lines, and the elite British 4th Army is deployed near the city of Norwich. Although this army does not have the armored troops that Montgomery lacks, it is considered to be a strong force with a more tenacious style in other British military sequences.
Moreover, because of the flat terrain, the British defensive positions are very well deployed, with a total of three complete defensive zones. A lot of mines and obstacles were laid near the coastline because Yipingpingchuan was unguarded. About 200 meters behind the beach is a permanent fortification consisting of machine gun bunkers and defensive positions. It is also the strongest line of defense for the British defenders.
Approximately 40 large-caliber artillery guns with adjustable angles were deployed on this position, and two old open-air turrets built in the last century have now been consolidated into two main defensive positions. The entire theater of war also has two 280 mm caliber rail guns to support it. It can be said that the defensive measures are very perfect.
Moreover, the local defender has a whole division. Although it was scattered on the long coastline, at least one regiment of infantry was deployed on any landing surface. The only thing that makes people uneasy is that these troops are made up of some recruits, and no one can know exactly what the fighting power is.
Montgomery and Churchill in Britain both guessed the direction of the Germans' landing. They firmly believed that the Isle of Wight, Southampton, Brighton and Dover in the south of England were the main directions of the Germans.
Among them, Brighton and Dover were strengthened by the British defenders. The only armored force in the hands of the British was deployed in this direction. Churchill feared that the Germans would land in Brighton, because it was the closest to the British capital London, and Montgomery and naval generals felt that Germany would land in Dover. After all, the shortest strait distance is the most beneficial to German transportation.
However, after repeated confirmation and comparison of German intelligence agencies and reconnaissance aircraft photos, Akkado and Lundstadt felt that landing in the southeast of the United Kingdom, the Norwich region, was the safest way. If the German team captures Norwich and Ipswich, then Germany will have a firm foothold in the UK, and then London will be nothing more than a bag.
Of course, there is also a more troublesome landing in the Norwich area, that is, the Stuka bomber flight can only stay for a short time after arriving here, which is one of the main reasons why the British side did not pay attention to the Norwich area defense. Because Montgomery believed that if the Germans landed in Norwich, then Germany ’s air superiority would be offset by half.
However, no one knows that the Luftwaffe already has a new type of attack aircraft called Stuka 2 in service, and no one knows that the German paratroopers are instructed to seize several British airports in the vicinity of the Norwich area and prepare to forcibly establish a front-line field airport. To ensure a more timely air cover.
No one thought that the high seas fleet of the German Navy had taken five battleships to bypass the North Atlantic, preparing to rush to the planned landing site to cover the German landing forces. The naval aviation consisting of 4 aircraft carriers has more than 130 Stuka bombers. Offset the troubles caused by the distance problem in the Norwich area to the Luftwaffe.
On February 12, the German Air Force bombed Dover on a large scale, blasting that port city into ruins, and 200 bombers of various models blood-washed the coastline defensive positions near Dover. The British government ordered the military to begin full martial law, and the relevant departments expected the possibility of landing in Germany the next day as high as 90%.
As a result, on February 13, the large-scale landing of the Dover German army, which the British were waiting hard for, did not arrive. Instead, even a German plane could not be seen because of the weather. However, on this day, 100,000 German troops in the port of Rotterdam rushed out of the nest, taking a cruise ship as large as thousands of tons, and a huge fleet of barges as small as hundreds of tons. Attack the target.
The wind was cold and the waves were so high that the soldiers vomited on the up and down ships with their weapons. No one knows whether this landing operation will usher in success. They just wait and wait quietly, praying for a good weather tomorrow morning.
"Report!" An officer rushed into Montgomery's office in a hurry and took a telegram on the general's desk: "General! Urgent news from our intelligence personnel. The Germans set up at the port of Rotterdam Of the army ’s army went to sea by boat! "
Montgomery stood up abruptly, walked to the front of the map, stared at the possible landing sites with his chin, and whispered, "Finally, here! Where is it? Is it Dover ... or Brighton?" "
"Order troops to cancel vacations! All officers must return to their combat positions within an hour! Notify the Air Force to dispatch reconnaissance planes, and must find the German Navy ’s transport fleet! In addition, the artillery on the coastline is on alert to prepare for the German landing troops. "" The soldiers decided to take back Montgomery's thoughts and ordered.
"Also! Call the Air Defense Forces, do n’t save any strength, get your family out and prepare for the fight. Call the Prime Minister and the Germans are 100% likely to land in the next 24 hours! Let him prepare and command The whole British anti-landing operation. The victory and defeat is here in one fell swoop! "He thought about it and said," That's all, arrange it now! "
Sure enough, as predicted by the German Meteorological Department, the weather improved on the evening of February 13 and the sky was clear. Akado stood in the royal palace of Rotterdam's original Queen of the Netherlands Wilhelmina, looking at the horizon where the sea and sky handed off not far away, and her heart was full of heroes-after some entanglement, he finally made his own bet. Now the victory of Germany's national games will be seen after tomorrow's World War I. Whether to become the world hegemon or to squat in the basement and commit suicide, we will soon know the answer.
Anna walked from behind Akado with a coat on her shoulders. She is now more willing to be the little woman leaning against the big tree of Akado. The most wanted thing is to wait beside Akado to see an indifferent result.
