Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

Every Russian hates Britain to the core.

Not to mention the recent one, in the Russo-Japanese War, if the British had not interfered and did not allow the Russian fleet to supply supplies at the British-controlled ports along the way, the Russians might not have lost so miserably.

Going further, the original alliance between Britain and Japan was intended to curb Russia's expansion in Asia.

Considering that the Tsar and the King of England during the Russian Empire were still relatives, we know what the relationship between the two countries was like.

In modern times, the relationship between Red Russia and the British Empire has been even more sworn. The Russians hate Britain as much as they hate Germany.

"Let them come, and I will prepare a welcome ceremony for them that they will never forget." Rokossovsky is also a ruthless man. He made many military exploits during the adversity period of the Patriotic War and was known as the "Hero of Adversity."

Marshal who always wins."

Rokossovsky was a man of unlucky luck. In 1937, Rokossovsky was accused of having ties to Polish and Japanese intelligence agencies and was sentenced to death.

It is said that two other people were sentenced to death together with Rokossovsky. When the three of them were executed, the other two people died on the spot. When it was Rokossovsky's turn, the bullets used for execution

But it was a blank round, so Rokossovsky escaped with his life.

This story is mostly fabricated, but Rokossovsky's love affair is indeed enviable.

Rokossovsky had a very famous lover, Russian actress Valentina Serova.

Legend has it that after the two met, even Russia's Minister of Interior Beria envied the bearded man and said that Serova was seen visiting Rokossovsky on the front line and stayed overnight in the headquarters.

What Beria didn't expect was that the bearded man was not only not angry, but even more envious: "Serova! Is she that beautiful actress? She is so beautiful -"

Beria was speechless: "But the marshal's reputation will plummet because of this. What should we do?"

"Yes, what should we do? What should we do -" What can the bearded man do: "We should be envious, Comrade Beria, we should be envious!"

After all, bearded people are very human, and it is unacceptable to ignore the excitement.

"Where is Rokossovsky's wife?" This kind of thing is fun when the whole family is in order.

"I don't know-" Beria was even more speechless. As the Minister of the Interior, he couldn't keep an eye on the marshal's family members every day.

The marshal's family may not necessarily be as beautiful as heavenly beings.

"Find her quickly, fly her to Rokossovsky's headquarters, and let her fight with Serova to see who goes and who stays -" It's hard to imagine that these words came from the bearded mouth.

Said.

The authenticity of this matter has yet to be verified, but not long ago, a beautiful military doctor gave birth to a daughter for Rokossovsky.

"You wouldn't send tanks to crush all those British airborne troops into a pulp, would you?" Konev smiled grimly, more like a reminder than a persuasion.

"Of course not, the British are our allies!" Rokossovsky laughed. He was not a stupid British person.

Montgomery didn't know what kind of welcome ceremony Rokossovsky had prepared for the British airborne troops. After getting Zhukov's consent, the British airborne troops lined up to board the plane and prepared to airborne in Berlin.

"I have a bad feeling that the operation will not be smooth sailing." At Norwich Air Force Base, 150 kilometers away from London, Eisenhower looked at the busy airport runway with worry.

Norwich has the largest air force base in southeastern Britain. Since 1940, Allied bombers have taken off from here to carry out large-scale strategic bombing of the German mainland. This is also the largest and longest air offensive operation in human history.

For four years, the Allies dispatched more than 1.44 million bomber sorties and more than 2.68 million fighter sorties. At the cost of losing 1%, they dropped 2.7 million tons of bombs on the German-controlled European continent, of which 1.36 million tons were dropped on the German mainland.

.

The effect of the bombing was remarkable, destroying 50,000 German combat aircraft, killing 1 million residents of Germany, making 7.5 million people homeless, and paralyzing 90% of Germany's road transportation. Especially the intensive bombing of oil facilities in the later period had a devastating impact on Germany.

serious impact on industrial production.

The total distance from Norwich to Berlin is 800 kilometers. Many Allied pilots are already familiar with this route and can reach Berlin smoothly without navigation.

As usual, Norwich Airport was extremely busy.

The difference is that in the past, bombers and fighter jets took off from here, but today, transport planes and gliders took off, with only a few escort fighter jets.

After six years of fierce fighting, Germany has now completely lost air supremacy. Even if the transport aircraft does not have escort fighters, it faces little danger.

Generally speaking, airborne troops will take transport aircraft to complete the airborne landing above the destination.

Because the British airborne troops suffered heavy losses in the spring operation some time ago, the proportion of British airborne troops dispatched this time was not large. Most of them were army troops who had just been transferred from the field troops. These people had not experienced parachute training, so they could only

Travel to Berlin by glider.

"Don't worry, the Russians will not aim their anti-aircraft guns at us." Patton believed that Zhukov would not risk the disapproval of the world at this time.

Even if there is friction, it should be after the war is over.

If Zhukov was so careless about the overall situation, he would not be in the position he is today.

"I'm just afraid that the tragedy in Arnhem will happen again." Eisenhower still remembered the previous tragedy.

Arnhem is the bridge that can never be reached.

During the spring offensive, the British 1st Airborne Division conducted an airborne landing in Arnhem. The initial phase of the mission went smoothly. The 2nd Battalion of the 1st Brigade successfully completed the airborne landing on the north side of Arnhem as planned and took control of the Arnhem Bridge.

.

What the British did not expect was that there happened to be a German armored division stationed near Arnhem at that time. The second battalion was immediately surrounded by German troops. Montgomery tried every means but failed to break the German encirclement. The second battalion only remained

The next telegram read, "We are out of ammunition and food, God bless my king." The entire army was wiped out in hand-to-hand combat.

Now the British army will embark on a new adventure. Berlin is the last stronghold of the German army. The German army's will to resist will be stronger and the danger will be greater.

"Believe in my children, they will definitely complete the task!" Montgomery didn't know whether he was comforting Eisenhower or himself.

Regardless of Montgomery's mood, most of the British officers and soldiers boarding the plane had solemn expressions. They knew how risky this battle was, and they also knew that this would be the final battle.

"I just remembered that I want to buy my brother a children's bicycle made in southern Africa. He has wanted it for a long time." Humphrey, from Sheffield, talked to relieve the pressure. They had both written suicide notes before boarding the plane.

Be prepared to die in battle.

No matter how busy and shady British politicians are, young men are still very simple. They are not deeply involved in the world and do not know the dangers of the world.

"It's too late for you to go back and change your suicide note now -" Swift, who is also from Sheffield, cried sadly. He enlisted in the army three months ago. He thought he could survive until the end of the world war, but unexpectedly he was selected to join the 1st Airborne Division.

Go to Berlin to fight.

Humphrey, like Sheffield, was only 18 years old. They had just come of age and were among the last British men to enlist in the army.

Britain's million-strong army plan was finally completed last month, which is really gratifying.

This is not a slave army composed of colonies, but a force composed entirely of British troops.

The war was coming to an end, and the British government finally sent out troops truly composed of British troops.

During the spring offensive, Montgomery also dispatched Canadian troops.

"Get up, all get up, pack your equipment, get ready to board the plane -" The leading officer was also in a bad mood. I don't know how many people have been scolding Montgomery in their dreams in the past few days.

The glider itself has no power and needs to be pulled up by other aircraft with ropes. After reaching a certain height and speed, it relies on gliding to reach its destination.

Since there is no power, the glider is very dangerous and cannot adjust independently. When it reaches the target, it must descend no matter what the situation is below.

At the same time, in order to avoid secondary injuries, the soldiers riding the glider must firmly trap themselves in the chair. When landing, it all depends on luck. If you are unlucky and hit the mountain or fall into the river, the soldiers in the glider will

There was no chance of escape.

"Please God forgive me for the sins I have committed and my mistakes. I am a loyal servant of God and bless me to successfully complete my mission and go home -" Humphrey kept praying. They really needed some luck.

Swift had just tied herself to the chair when she suddenly started crying.

"I gotta get out of here, I gotta go home, damn, I'm not feeling well, I'm sick, I gotta go see a doctor—"

"Shut your mouth, or I will throw you out of the plane after it takes off!" The sergeant major's face was almost close to Swift's face, and he spat on Swift's face.

"Sir, I'm not feeling well, I'm sick-" Swift's face was full of horror. He believed that the sergeant major in front of him meant what he said.

"Everyone here is so uncomfortable. How can a dying person be comfortable? But before death comes, we must complete the mission. Even if we die, we must die in Berlin!" The sergeant major said with a ferocious expression.

Swift's face was full of despair. At this time, the glider had begun to accelerate on the runway, and it was impossible to escape even if he escaped.

When the war reaches this level, the German army will directly execute deserters, and the Allies are not much better.

Montgomery put a lot of thought into forming this unit. Not to mention the various promised rewards and benefits, these soldiers had already received many benefits before they decided to participate in the operation.

You can't take advantage of it. If you don't want to go now, you won't go. Either you shouldn't be greedy in the first place, or you should think that your life has been sold to the British Empire.

800 kilometers is not a long distance, and the glider's speed is not very fast. It arrived at the scheduled area successfully in about two hours. There was no German anti-aircraft fire or harassment by the German air force along the way.

The German Air Force now has no counterattack capability at all. There are only a few fighter jets left that can take off. There is a serious shortage of aviation fuel and pilots. It has completely given up its air superiority over Berlin.

Anti-aircraft firepower is even more necessary. In Berlin now, it doesn't matter whether it has air defense capabilities or not. It doesn't matter whether it's a transport plane or a bomber. The limited anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns are all used to deal with Russian ground troops. As for the Allied forces besieging Berlin

Whether it is 2.5 million people or 3 million people has no meaning to the result.

The aircraft towing the glider completed its mission when it arrived at the predetermined area. Without even a signal, it cut off the rope and turned around to go to France.

Compared with the UK, France is closer to Berlin. At this time, there is no runway for landing back in Norwich, so going to France for transfer is a better choice.

Therefore, large-scale military operations test not only the combat capabilities of the troops, but also the logistics support and coordination capabilities.

"Lie down on the back of the chair in front, hold your head with your hands, and be prepared for the impact-" The sergeant major's nervous voice changed its tone. Although there was no roar of the engine in the glider, the wind noise outside the window made people more distressed.

Terrified.

Most of these gliders are disposable products, and their quality requirements are not as high as those of transport aircraft, and their safety is even less guaranteed. Although they will not disintegrate in the air, they will not give passengers any sense of security.

The glider that lost power descended very quickly, and Humphrey even worried that the glider would crash directly. Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.

Sitting next to Humphrey, Swift was very quiet. It was not that he had calmed down, but that he had fallen into a coma.

Most of the other soldiers were yelling to relieve stress, some were crying, some were praying, and Humphrey felt like he was in hell.

It is indeed hell.

The glider is not enclosed, and the outside situation can be observed through the portholes.

The weather today was not very good. There were many clouds in the sky and the wind was strong. Through the porthole, Humphrey could not see clearly what was going on outside. The entire glider was surrounded by black clouds.

As the glider continued to descend, Humphrey finally figured out why the clouds were black, because they were not clouds at all, but smoke from the burning city.

It really is a burning city.

Although it is a bit far away from Berlin, you can still see that the entire city is burning, the sky is dyed pale red, countless smoke rises into the sky, and occasionally there are orange-red fireballs mixed with gunpowder smoke that flicker.

Humphrey knew that it was an artillery shell exploding, and it was a large-caliber artillery shell over 120 mm, because the light effect caused by the explosion of a small-caliber artillery shell could not be seen at this height and distance.

The terrain of the landing site was not good, with rolling hills, scattered lakes and rivers, and dense forests. Humphrey began to pray again, praying that the glider would not hit a tree.

Humphrey's luck was neither good nor bad. The glider did hit a tree. Although it did not disintegrate, the wings on both sides were broken. The main part of the glider slid on the ground for another distance, and then it was completely

stop.

Before the glider could stop, Swift started screaming. He landed in a bad posture and his legs were broken.

Now, Swift finally had a reason to go home, but he would never use it.
