Chapter 23: What can I do? (1)
Volume 4 of the Third Reich under Ten Thousand Characters: The Sorrow of France Chapter 23: What can I do?
"We were ordered to pick up if German:ship...com"
This is the Sep in northern France, and it is the garrison of the 15th Army of the German Wehrmacht Army. To be more precise, this is the camp of the 3rd Armored Division of the 15th Army, the 14th Infantry Battalion, and the 592nd Infantry Company.
The name of today's duty officer is Shasnov. He was originally a Slav who served in the Polish Army. After Poland was defeated, he, like many Slavs, was not imprisoned in prisoners of war or sent to labor camps. Like the 26 Slavs in the same regiment, he was selected into the German army to continue serving. Now Shasnov is a soldier of the 14th Infantry Battalion and the 592nd Infantry Company of the German Wehrmacht.
Shasnov's eyes widened because he could not recognize which department the license plate of the car parked at the gate of the camp represented. He knew that the gendarmerie license plate of the Allied countries was ilitry-lie, and the German military police license plate was ilit&l;rie-lizei. "Sir, what did you say? iff?" He was still looking at the license plate with the letters k.
The school was dressed the same as all German Army, except that there was a row of German in the collar of the gray uniform. His face was full of pride. He always looked down at people, "Corporal, I'll look for..." He seemed to be recalling something, a non-standard pinyin Shasnov repeated it, and then asked in surprise: "Bai Fan?"
"Yes, it seems that I read it." The school looked at the documents in his hand and muttered secretly. "bi-fn? Bai Fan? Those idiots from the communications department! Iff?"
At this time, a jeep also stopped at the gate in front of the military camp. The person who came was Ma Han, the commander of the armored regiment. He saw the license plate of the military car in front of the military camp at first sight. When he saw the letters of the license plate, he was very surprised. K is just an abbreviation, and the full text should mean the commander of the commander-in-chief.
"Joseph?" Mahan recognized the school and walked quickly. "Joseph, why are you here?"
Joseph and Ma Han were obviously an old acquaintance. He smiled bitterly: "I was ordered by the leader to come to the front line and draw all the officers from China. There were three special opportunities to send them back to Berlin this afternoon. I came here to find a company commander of the infantry company named Bai Fan. It's really bad. The communication officer of the Supreme Command did not figure it out. I thought the name iff was a bit weird."
Ma Han was stunned. After thinking about it, he didn't understand why he had to transfer back the Chinese military. The Third Armored Division was the German unit with the most Chinese among all German troops. These officers and cadets from Asia were transferred to the war as soldiers as privateers. So far, half of these Asian visitors who had experienced the baptism of war have been promoted to non-commissioned officers. Bai Fan performed outstandingly in the battles of Sedang, Mus, Bernard, and Symph. He was promoted to lieutenant, and was the lieutenant with the highest rank in the National Defense Forces.
"Why do you want to pick up a lieutenant in person? This is not in line with our army's tradition." Ma Han actually wanted to know what happened. The operation of the infantry brigade now cannot be separated from these excellent grassroots officers.
Joseph said the documents were handed over to Ma Han. This was an order issued from the Supreme Command of the National Defense Forces. The article stated in detail that all Chinese soldiers on the French front would be transferred back to Berlin because the Chinese side sent a visiting delegation. It was said that it was a visiting delegation, but it was actually a military purchase group. Their intention to come to Germany this time was to buy enough arms. In addition, it was to recall soldiers studying in Germany and returned to China to participate in the war. The person who led the delegation was a ** Major General.
Mahan stopped talking about his signature when he saw it. He knew Kahn von Stark's idea very well. Once the order was issued directly, there would be no bargaining. Perhaps he should have fought for the division headquarters of the armored division, "Then...we have supplementary officers?"
Joseph's face looked a little impatient. He had wasted a lot of time here. It is 9:4 pm on May 24, and there are still two and a half hours before the departure of the special plane. The 592nd Infantry Company is stationed in the suburbs south of Sep. The airport takes about 15 minutes.
Shasnov finally knew who was stopping someone, "No... I'm very sorry. Your Excellency, I don't know that you are an officer in the Supreme Command." Although he was afraid of death now, he still made it tactfully to show that this was not his mistake, because Joseph and his gang did not show their documents.
Joseph's face became very embarrassing.
"I? There are three Chinese in the infantry company who want to return to Berlin?" Bai Fan's hand was a transfer order, which was written in very detailed. The German government wanted to transfer all Chinese soldiers back to Berlin, including Bai Fan himself.
Joseph Chan focused on it, "Yes! The order was issued by the Supreme German Command. You and your compatriots will be transferred back to Berlin, and the officials of your government are waiting for you in Berlin."
Bai Fan began to feel a little confused, and he was stunned, "Our government officials? Where did they come from?"
Joseph also began to feel a little dizzy. He was very serious about confirming the content of the document again, "The document was written about Chinese officials in Chongqing."
Bai Fan finally understood a little, "I'm very sorry, Mr. School, my parents are not in Chongqing and are not controlled by Chongqing officials." He said very resolutely.
"Oh..." Joseph seemed to remember something, "The leader sent three special planes, two Chinese students from Germany who specialize in picking up and dropping off Chongqing officials. One is a Chinese soldier who picks up and drops off the list. You, like the two Chinese people, need to go to Berlin."
Joseph suddenly stood attentively, with a serious tone, "Mr. Wei, this is the command of the leader. As the adjutant of the leader and a loyal follower of the leader, I should explain to you one thing, no one can disobey the leader's order!" His tone relaxed a little, "He has talked to me about you privately. Here are the original words of the leader: The country is in a dilemma, and go back to rescue his compatriots, and they need an excellent officer like you."
Bai Fan lowered his head, and he wanted to go back, who wanted to fight far away from his hometown in a distant place. But he couldn't go back now, just because he had not completed his mission. Bai Fan used a tone of grief, as if he was telling a story, saying, "My motherland is in a dilemma, I understand. I will come to Germany to become a member of the National Welfare Force because I want to learn how to fight in a military power. After joining the National Welfare Force, I started from being a private person until I was promoted to a lieutenant to lead an infantry company. This made me learn
There is a lot of military knowledge. Do you know? In my motherland and our army, no one has ever understood what infantry tactics are. It sounds a bit unreal, but this has indeed happened: once a charge, my soldiers did not know how to avoid their own machine gun ballistic shooting lines, but in the end... more soldiers were accidentally killed by their own people than the Japanese rifles. With historical facts, the Han and the Germans in the company command were all dumbfounded. It was really hard for them to imagine that such a thing would happen.
Bai Fan smiled, his smile full of bitterness. "We have never received regular military training. When we came to Germany, with the help of His Excellency Karnvonsdaq, I joined the National Defense Forces with two soldiers. Now some people have died. They died when they attacked France. Those who did not sacrifice learned how to train the army and fight in the National Defense Forces. We never knew what shooting Chu Yuan meant, we had no cannons..." He was silent for a long time, "Okay! As a soldier, I obey the command of the commander."
Bai Fan packed up his personal belongings and when he handed over the troops, he was no longer chest tightness because the person who shook hands with him was also a Chinese man with black hair, yellow skin and dark eyes. It seemed that the two knew each other. Bai Fan seemed very surprised, "It's you?"
The officer who took over as the commander of the 592nd Infantry Company was also a Chinese named Lin Feng. He and 36 compatriots graduated from the Miao Military Academy on November 11, 1939 and were sent to the German Wehrmacht Forces in Poland to serve. He is currently serving as the rank of lieutenant.
Lin Feng held Bai Fan's hands tightly, his eyes firmly and his tone was strong, "Don't worry! You, a famous Chinese company, don't even lead me!"
Bai Fan hesitated, "You? Haven't you arrived in the United States?"
Lin Feng replied: "Oh! Stop talking, I will only ask us to learn how to shoot guns and run. They don't give us tactical training classes at all. I heard that you were transferred to the combat sequence by the Germans and participated in actual combat. Let's find a way to come to Germany for military education.
Bai Fan was very surprised. As far as he knew, the focus of the country was on the two military powers of the United States and the Soviet Union, especially the Soviet Union. The most students were sent in China. Germany was not valued. It was a historical fact that there were indeed people sent to Germany to study. The rigid Germans did teach whatever they should teach. They did not understand the situation in Asia, because... they were transferred back again.
Lin Feng seemed to see Bai Fan's doubts, "The same is true in the Soviet Union. We can't learn anything there. In addition to asking us to cook, the Russians also cook, which is an absolute historical fact. I came to Germany to show your documents you sent back, and the Germans arranged us to study at the Miao Military Academy. What kind of backing did you find here?"
Bai Fan... After a long time, the ending sound was absolutely full of energy. When I thought of a brow, I felt incredible, "I agree... I agree with you?"
"What do you mean!" Lin Feng was a little unhappy, "We need to learn, not to look at the direction of the wind. Where can we learn knowledge? If we are willing to teach us knowledge, we will go wherever we want to. Besides, I don't think Germany is as bad as Chiang Kai-shek promotes. People should teach anything. Is it a little bit about you? What backer did you find here?"
Bai Fan smiled silly: "What's the backer? This is really a bit incomprehensible. A senior German seems to like China very much. He welcomes everyone who comes to learn military knowledge in China. Yes, everyone is welcome, regardless of party or partisan..." He saw the soldiers of the 592nd Infantry Company lined up in two columns and walked in this direction with goose steps.
Joseph stood beside Bai Fan and Lin Feng, and he listened silently to the two of them. Like many foreigners, the two never felt that a German senior executive would understand the language of a distant country, so they exchanged information with all their hearts, completely unaware that Joseph not only understood Chinese, but also spoken badly.
"Oh?" Lin Feng touched his chin habitually, "This is definitely good news for us. It is almost the end of 40 years, and the United States, Britain and other countries are under military threats from the Japanese, and are no longer able to continue to support our war of resistance. We should find a way out!" He said in a deep tone, "There is a general in Germany who has a good impression of China, and it may not necessarily change anything."
Joseph suddenly interrupted in Chinese, and his tone was a little bad, "You should call him the Chief of the SS, or the General."
Bai Fan and Lin Feng looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. They asked in unison: "Can Mr. School speak Chinese?"
Joseph raised his brow and said something strange to him, okay. Bai Fan said goodbye to your warriors." He looked at his watch. "You only have 5 minutes."
Bai Fan stood attentively, saluted Joseph, turned around and ran to the Germanic warrior column.
This is definitely not a special treatment. When every German grassroots armed unit replaces its chief, there will be a scene of soldiers saying goodbye to the original officer. There will be no heroic words in it, and there will be no so-called cherishment or reluctance. In war years, it is very common for grassroots officers to die. Farewell is only based on a form of etiquette.
Bai Fan stopped saluting the army. He shook hands with every Germanic soldier and whispered "Thank you" in a low voice. They experienced many battles together. During the Polish Battle, Bai Fan was a third-class private under the 26th Infantry Division of the National Defense Forces. In the middle of the Polish Battle, he was suddenly transferred to the Third Armored Division to become a corporal squad. In the black and white documentary of the Warsaw March, if you look at it in detail, you will see 56 top-notch people in the third party. Some people died in France, and those who did not sacrifice would return to the country with the wishes of the martyrs. Perhaps someone would sacrifice again, as all the Chinese who came to Germany to study said: Life is endless and the battle is endless!
On May 23, at 14:30 pm, 16 Chinese took a special plane to Berlin. At the same time, a special plane filled with Japanese army officers also visited the tanks of the German Wehrmacht. The German Navy's battle report blocking the British Isles. Since the war started, the German Navy has gained a lot. Every day, even every two hours, a cargo ship or warship was sunk by sea wolves.
"Our imminent threat is the research on anti-submarine weapons of the allies. They seem to find some way to deal with our submarines. Judging from the current situation, the British, Australian, and Canadians are all studying sonar systems and anti-submarine carrier-based aircraft. If they take the lead in researching weapons that can deal with submarines, our blockade operations will be curbed. Generals, this is not good news. Our fleet is not the opponent of the Allied forces at all. If the submarine loses its function and the intensity of the blockade on the British Isles is reduced, giving the British enough resources to make weapons, and we may be torn to death by them like in World War I. We should face up to a reality: war is not only a contest between the army, but also a contest of national strength. But unfortunately, our war potential is indeed not as good as the alliance.
Below the round table are the heads of the Army, Air Force and Navy. They have not left because Xu Yang needs them to discuss ways to deal with Britain. The British Islands separated by the English Channel have not been resolved for a day, and Germany and Britain have not fallen, which means that the war needs to continue and Germany will be dragged along the northern coast of France. Generals generally believe that it is too early to talk about fighting against Britain now, and now Germany needs to solve France.
Kesseling is obviously very confident in his air force, because the details of the new brd16e interceptor refer to the full text of the 1943 Dornier D-335; detlnd, since Germany is about to start production, this air combat aircraft jointly developed by Stark, Dornier, Messer-Chmid and Siemens leads the Allied Air Force two eras, with a maximum speed of 600 kilometers and a combat radius of 1,50 kilometers. A large part of it solves the problem of the German Air Force fighter's combat radius being too short.
Xu Yang knew very well how strong the industrial foundation of Germany was. In the original history, the German Air Force was completely wrong in the development of the German Air Force because of the mistakes of Gorene, a fool. Xu Yang spent a long time understanding the research plan of the German Aircraft Production Company and found that many aircraft with advantages were all in the semi-research and development stage. The main reason was that when Gorene was still alive, he had always put forward his own opinions on the design of the aircraft according to his own wishes. This greatly affected the time when the new fighter was released. Many excellent fighter jets also did not get enough funds to continue research because of Gorene's personal hobbies.
The replacement of senior management has changed history. Don’t think that Xu Yang is just listening to the Air Force’s suggestions and the professional opinions of various aircraft production companies and choosing what to develop. Senior management is absolutely impossible to cover everything. In many cases, senior management only needs to issue an order based on the opinions of experts.
Dongdongdongdongdong—A knock on the door interrupted the continued meeting.
