The decisive battle against the Third Reich

I'm asking for monthly votes, I'm just a few votes away from the first place in the category...

"Can you imagine? There are actually French people in this team!" Rommel continued to complain: "They are simply crazy. Let the French help us resist the attack of the Allied forces. What should we say to them? For your homeland, for your country not to be invaded by the enemy, pick up your guns and fight... God, the French have always regarded us as invaders and the Allied forces as liberators!"

Seeing Qin Chuan's expression was a little strange, Rommel asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"Marshal!" Qin Chuan said: "Is this French regiment transferred from Algeria the French battalion originally formed there?"

"Yes, is there any problem?" Rommel asked puzzledly.

Colonel Slain explained: "Marshal, this French battalion was formed and trained by the lieutenant colonel!"

"What? Is this true?" Rommel asked.

"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied: "We also led them to build tunnels on the Gabes Line, and in Sicily, we used their French identities to disguise as Allied troops to sneak in and attack... You know, there are French troops in the Allied forces!" "Interesting!" Rommel couldn't help laughing: "Sorry, Lieutenant Colonel, I didn't know this!" "It doesn't matter, Marshal!" Qin Chuan said: "In fact... you may be right, they are French, and there is a high possibility of such a problem!" This is related to national justice, so it is not something that can be determined by personal feelings or training. After thinking about it, Rommel said: "Maybe... we should go to inspect the front line and discuss the next plan!" There is no problem with inspecting the front line itself, because this is Rommel's style of leading troops. As mentioned before, Rommel is the kind of commander who goes to the front line and stays with the soldiers. He always believes that this can fully tap the potential of the soldiers and make them burst out with combat effectiveness that surprises everyone (including the enemy). He did this in Africa, and it was no exception at the Atlantic Wall. However, during this period, Rommel deployed more second-line and further back defenses, which were only a few dozen kilometers away from Paris and could be returned within a day.

But the coastal official business... was 365 kilometers away from Paris, which would take a whole day or even longer, because the road might be blown up.

Rommel led everyone to climb onto a French civilian car... This car was a bit like a bus, with a striking red top and sides, and was usually used to carry passengers between French cities.

This approach was very smart, because Allied pilots would see the car from a distance but would not attack it, because they would think that the people sitting on it were French civilians.

This stunned Qin Chuan and Colonel Slaine... If they had known that they would do this when they came here from Germany, they would not have to travel day and night for so many days to get to Paris.

"Did you see it?" After the car had been driving for more than two hours, Rommel raised his head out of the car window: "Those are what I prepared for the Allied airborne troops!"

Looking out the window, there were sharpened wooden stakes standing up to the sky, and barbed wire with barbs was pulled between the stakes. There were some black spots on the wire... Qin Chuan raised his telescope and saw that it was a mine.

It is conceivable what would happen if the airborne troops parachuted in this area at night.

"The lake next to it!" Rommel said: "It was originally a flat land, and I brought in seawater. Of course, this is also prepared for their airborne troops!"

"I can't wait to see how they struggle in the lake!" said Colonel Slaine.

"Your Excellency the Marshal!" Qin Chuan said: "If it were me, I wouldn't do this!"

"Why?" Rommel asked.

"Because of the British intelligence network!" Qin Chuan said, "They have the help of the French, it is not difficult to get these lakes and the maps, and then the Allied paratroopers will carefully avoid these devices!"

"They can't avoid all of them, right?" Rommel said, "Because there is no accurate landing point for airborne operations!"

What Rommel said is right, especially in the dark, it is common to be blown away from the target by the wind by several kilometers.

"I agree, Marshal!" Qin Chuan replied, "But they will try their best to avoid such losses in general. But if we prepare first, I mean to station a dam or something else, so that this area looks like it can be airborne, so they are unprepared, but when they launch an attack, we will..."

The rest is needless to say.

Rommel couldn't help but say "Oh", and then agreed, "Good idea, Lieutenant Colonel, we should do this!"

As he said, Rommel immediately ordered the staff: "Notify the engineering unit immediately and do as the lieutenant colonel said!"

"Yes!" The staff immediately asked the signalman to set up a radio station and issued the order.

This is Rommel's style of doing things, always keeping in touch with the troops and giving orders at any time.

Of course, the troops can always feel his presence.

The car was driving on the road, and everywhere on the roadside were laborers being escorted by German soldiers to repair the road... Of course, the road was also bombed into potholes and it was difficult to move forward. Sometimes they had to take a detour or even wait, because the big hole in the middle of the road could not be repaired for a while.

What makes people feel a bit scary is that from time to time, several Allied bombers or fighter jets fly past in the sky... From the roar of the plane, I can't tell what model it is, and I can only see a little bit of the plane through the car window. shadow.

This made Qin Chuan and Colonel Slaine have the urge to jump out of the car and lie on the ground again and again... This is common sense on the battlefield. Being in a car will increase your target. The best choice is to leave this place. Something like a target.

But Rommel said calmly: "As long as you don't stick your heads out of the window or get out of the car, they won't know that the people sitting inside are Germans!"

"And there is a marshal among them!" Qin Chuan said: "I think those pilots will regret that they missed this!"

The officers and soldiers couldn't help laughing.

Rommel shook his head and said: "No, Lieutenant Colonel! I think what they should regret more is... not knowing that the 'Legendary Sergeant' is sitting here!"

Laughter erupted in the car again.

Although Rommel's trick was indeed very effective, the car was not attacked when it reached its destination. You just need to be careful to stay away from military cars carrying supplies and soldiers.

But this is almost telling Qinchuan...the sky in France already belongs to the Allies.
