Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

People always say that one learns from one's mistakes, but this saying is not true in France.

From the establishment of the Third French Republic in 1871 to its defeat and surrender in 1940, France had a total of 87 prime ministers, with an average time in power of eight months.

For the Prime Minister, eight months may not be enough time to get familiar with the staff of the Prime Minister's Office, let alone a country.

Reynard has good luck. From the establishment of Free France to the present, he has been prime minister for five years, which is far longer than the average life span.

However, Renard's good luck ended here. The two world wars did not teach the French any lessons. Once there was no external threat, France entered a state of opposition for the sake of opposition.

"Now I just want the war to end soon and the general election to start immediately, so that I can enjoy the joy of finding fault with eggs." Leonard has remembered it in his little notebook. Now Felix Guin has caused trouble for Leonard. Leonard will go the extra mile to return the favor to Felix Guin.

The bearded man thought so too, so while he was competing with the United States for people in southern Africa, Britain was in trouble, and France was in internal strife, the Russian army was attacking Berlin with all its strength.

At the end of April, after paying a huge price, the Russian army finally invaded Berlin.

Although Mustache is at the end of his life, he still has a large number of staunch followers, which has a lot to do with the Russian army's attitude towards German prisoners.

Since the result of surrender is death, then fight until it hurts.

With strong defensive facilities, the German and Russian troops engaged in perhaps the most brutal street fighting in history.

Every street, every house, and even every room became a battlefield for fierce competition between the two sides. The Russian army gradually advanced using rocket launchers and flamethrowers. Berlin citizens who did not evacuate were also armed. They were forced into battle or were killed. He was killed by the Russian army or was regarded as a deserter and executed by the German army.

On April 27, Berlin garrison commander Weidelin suggested breaking out of the encirclement because the defenders' ammunition could only last for 48 hours, food and medicine had been exhausted, and there was no point in continuing to defend. Weidling suggested that the troops break out of the encirclement and join the 9th Army outside the city. .

Mustache refused Weidelin's suggestion. He insisted on directing the battle in the underground bunker of the Prime Minister's Office, signing battle orders and dying.

On the 28th, the 3rd Shock Army and the 8th Guards Army of the 1st Belorussian Front commanded by Marshal Zhukov pushed into the Tiergarten area of ​​Berlin.

The Tiergarten area was the last stronghold of the German army in Berlin. Since the position was surrounded by government offices, the Reichstag, and the High Command, the highest headquarters symbolizing the power of the Third Reich, Weidling deployed the most elite troops there. here.

The 8th Guards Army, commanded by General Chuikov, first launched an attack on the position. That afternoon, it crossed the Landwehr Canal, occupied the German communication hub, and cut off Berlin's main communication links with the outside world.

Until this time, Mustache finally realized that the situation was irreversible. He held a wedding at one o'clock in the morning on the 29th to Eva Braun, who had been waiting for him for twelve years.

After the wedding, Mustache dictated a will, naming Field Marshal Dönitz as his successor.

While Mustache was holding his wedding, the battle at the Capitol was still going on. The man in the sharp position was Lieutenant Reconnaissance Platoon Commander Rahmanjan of the 150th Infantry Division.

Rahmanjan was born into a noble family in Kazakhstan. His mother died when he was 4 years old, and his father also died when he was 13 years old. Rahmanjan became an orphan.

When the Russo-German War broke out, 16-year-old Rahmanjan took the initiative to join the army. He first went to the Recruit Training Center in Kokshetau for basic training, and then went to the Tambov Infantry Comprehensive School in Frunze for further study, with excellent results. .waving

In October last year, Rahmanjan was sent to the front line, and the first large-scale battle he participated in was the capture of Berlin.

Rahmanjan had performed well before. As the reconnaissance platoon leader, he had an important task, which was to raise the Russian flag at the Capitol.

Rahmanjan actually completed this task last night, but because the raising location was next to the stairs, it was not conspicuous enough, so Rahmanjan decided to take the national flag to the roof and raise it on the roof of the Capitol. .

At this time, the battle in the building was not over yet, and Rahmanjan and his comrades were clearing out the remaining German troops layer by layer.

"If I die in battle, you must complete the mission and plant the flag on the roof!" Rahmanjan told Private Grigory Bulatov.

"Understood, I will definitely complete the mission!" The ammunition bag on Bulatov's chest was filled with grenades. This came from the experience of his predecessors.

In indoor combat, no gun is easy to use, and grenades are the best choice. No matter what the situation is on the opposite side, or how many people there are, if one grenade is not enough, then use another one.

Therefore, the attacking Russian soldiers each carried a lot of grenades, and Bulatov carried 20 when he set off.

Rahmanjan did not carry grenades. He was issued a Bobsha submachine gun. In addition to the bright Russian flag, the backpack behind him was filled with drum ammunition.

Bobosha is easy to use, but the bullets are consumed too quickly, so it is necessary to carry multiple drums with you.

Rahmanjan and his comrades cooperated tacitly. When attacking the stairs, Rahmanjan would use a submachine gun to fire, attracting the attention of the Germans, and at the same time cover the comrades around him to throw grenades.

The resistance of the Germans was very tenacious. Although their ammunition was exhausted, the Germans still fought to the end with any weapons at their disposal.

Gululu——

A round thing rolled down the stairs. Wave

Rahmanjan was instantly frightened out of his mind. The space on the stairs was too narrow. Once the explosion occurred, Rahmanjan and Bulatov would have nowhere to escape.

Fortunately, this is not a grenade, but a stone.

Rahmanjan replaced a new magazine, raised his head and fired at the top of the stairs. Before the gunfire fell, Bulatov threw two grenades up at the same time.

This time it's true.

boom!

After the violent explosion, smoke and dust were everywhere, and Rahman rushed up the stairs without waiting for the smoke to disperse.

The bloody corpses of two German soldiers were found at the entrance of the stairs. Next to them was a German officer who was seriously injured but was already in a dying state.

Rahmanjan did not hesitate at all, and shot over, ending the officer's life.

This is also the experience summed up by blood and tears. Don't give the enemy any chance to resist.

Rahmanjan was not in a hurry to continue the attack because he heard a sound in the room next to him.

Bulatov moved quickly, came to Rahmanjan and took out a new grenade.

Rahmanjan nodded and kicked the door open. Bulatov almost simultaneously threw the smoking grenade in through the crack of the door. The two of them cooperated in perfect harmony.

When the door was kicked open, several girls screamed simultaneously in the room.

This did not stop Bulatov from moving. When Bulatov stuffed the grenade inside, he even kindly held the door tight and waved.

boom--

The strong impact directly shattered the door, and the shrapnel that came out of the door crackled on the opposite wall, and brick fragments flew everywhere.

Without hesitation, Rahmanjiang fired his gun into the room through the broken door until the magazine was emptied.

By this time there was no sound in the room.

Bulatov looked into the room through the broken door panel, his expression numb.

Rahmanjan got up after replacing a new magazine.

The room was miserable. There were seven or eight German corpses lined up against the wall. It looked like most of them were wounded soldiers. A corpse on the table in the center of the room was bleeding. The two corpses next to it were a doctor and a nurse. They were probably undergoing surgery.

Rahman nodded toward the front room.

Bulatov understood, took out the grenade again, and continued to clean up.

At this time, there is no need to talk about cruelty or cruelty. The war has reached this point, and any kindness to the enemy is irresponsible to oneself.

During the Battle of Moscow, the German army showed no mercy to Russian wounded.

Moscow citizens are also treated equally.

So no matter what they do now, Rahmanjan and Bulatov will not be merciful.

The efficiency of grenades is indeed high, and the entire floor was quickly cleared. Rahmanjan and Bulatov did not forget to replenish them between battles. The main reason was that the grenades were consumed too quickly.

While Lakhmanjan and Bulatov were clearing the floors, other Russian officers and soldiers continued to attack upwards.

By the time Rahmanjan and Bulatov had finished replenishing their forces, the battle in the entire building was coming to an end.

The Reichstag is the last stronghold of the German army in Berlin. The end of the battle here means that the entire Berlin is already under the control of the Russian army.

"Bulatov, come with me -" Rahmanjan was so excited that he did not forget his mission.

Bulatov is busy cleaning the battlefield.

As mentioned before, due to the significance of the Reichstag Building, the defense troops deployed by Weidling were all elite German troops.

The so-called elites must have the best treatment and equipment, and the quality of the officers and soldiers is also the best. If you pick anyone out at random, they may come from a Junker noble family.

Bulatov made a big discovery in the last room. The four corpses in this room were two generals, a colonel, and a lieutenant colonel.

Both generals have medals hanging on their collars. One of the medals looks very beautiful. The year 1939 is engraved below the black iron cross, and above the cross are crossed swords and silver oak leaves.

Bulatov was not very familiar with the German military medal system, and he did not recognize it as a very expensive Knight's Cross of Iron Cross with Silver Oak Leaves and Double Swords. It is said that only 160 people received this medal during the entire World War II.

For Russian soldiers, the meaning of medals is more about commemoration. No one is willing to pay a high price for a medal, even if it is very rare.

This was not the case for the officers and soldiers of the Southern African Expeditionary Force.

This medal can be sold for at least a thousand rand. If you find the right person, it is not impossible to sell it for three to five thousand rand.

"Wait for me, I'll be ready soon!" Bulatov pulled off the medal and stuffed it into his pocket. Then he raised the colonel's arm. He took a fancy to the colonel's ring and waved.

Just as Bulatov was rolling the ring, the colonel suddenly woke up and grabbed Bulatov's hand.

"Asshole, let go!" Bulatov picked up an object from the side and hit the colonel directly in the face.

Then Bulatov discovered that what he was holding was the major's broken arm.

The colonel was seriously injured and was already in a critical condition. Although he was hit hard on the face, he still held on to Bulatov's hand.

Bulatov had no intention of entangling him, so he took out a military spur with his backhand and stabbed it into the colonel's chest.

The colonel's hand finally dropped weakly.

Bulatov took off the ring, ignored the blood stains on it, put it in his mouth and bit it. When he saw the tooth marks on it, he smiled with satisfaction. He waved.

The teeth are really nice.

"Bulatov, what are you doing?" Rahmanjan was impatient. He was now preoccupied with tasks.

"Coming, coming -" before Bulatov left the house, he did not forget to pick up a watch from the ground.

I don't know if it was blown off that unfortunate guy's wrist.

By this time, the gunfire and explosions had stopped, and there were still heavy and dense footsteps upstairs. It was probably other Russian officers and soldiers cleaning the battlefield.

Rachmanjan and Bulatov came to the roof of the building. Dozens of soldiers were cleaning the battlefield. The bodies of more than a dozen German officers and soldiers were lying on the roof. It seemed that a fierce battle had broken out here.

The soldiers here were very careful in cleaning the battlefield. Not only medals, watches, and rings, but also all the clothes of the corpses of German officers and soldiers were stripped off. Two Russian soldiers worked tirelessly to remove the naked corpses of German soldiers from the roof of the Reichstag. Throwing it down, several Russian soldiers nearby were laughing and waving.

Rahmanjan took out the Russian flag from his backpack, and Bulatov picked up the flagpole with the German flag tied to it from the ground, casually untied the German flag and threw it to the ground.

Rahmanjan thought for a while, picked up the German flag, rolled it into a ball and stuffed it into his backpack.

What kind of medal do you want? No matter how rare it is, there are more than a hundred medals of the Knight's Cross of Iron Cross with Double Swords and Silver Oak Leaves. This is the only German flag on the Reichstag.

And it is even more memorable on this special day.

With the help of Bulatov and several Russian soldiers beside him, Rahmanjan tied the Russian flag to the flagpole and was about to erect the flag when a major arrived in a hurry.

"Don't worry, wait a moment." The major called to Lachmanjiang.

What are you waiting for? Wave

While Rahmanjiang was waiting, several army reporters running up with cameras in their arms, sweating profusely.

Oh oh oh, this is for taking pictures.

Yes, this scene is more memorable.

"Wait a minute, you do this first, and then -" The photographer was not satisfied with Bulatov's appearance.

We can’t blame photographers for being picky.

Bulatov's body was bulging with grenades, and he looked like a bomber. Not to mention his face was covered in blood, and he was wearing a big, shiny gold watch on his hand. This heroic and capable Russian soldier seriously did not match his image. ,

At least it can't appear in the newspaper.

Rahmanjan's image is quite good, with a tall and straight figure and a resolute expression. After all, he has received a military school education and is considered a high-quality talent.

With the help of Bulatov and several Russian soldiers, Rahmanjan planted the Russian flag on the roof of the Parliament Building.

Bang——

The dazzling spotlight flashed, and this scene became one of the most famous photos of World War II.
