Chapter 62: The storm rises

.The Third Reich under Ten Thousand Characters  Volume 4: The Sorrow of France  Chapter 62: The Storm Begins

The second wave of attack began. It was a battle for a formation without suspense. The Allies lost the frontier and even lost the ammunition supplies to survive.

There is one thing we don’t understand, why our armored troops did not participate in the attack? Later we learned, it turned out that those armored troops were urgently transferred to a belt close to the Belgian border, preparing to launch a general attack from the east towards the besieged Allied forces. It is said that the Allied troops placed the armored troops near Newport, which was the closest to the British Dover Strait, and the narrowest part of the strait it spanned was only 33 kilometers.

What did the British want to do? Now everyone knows that the British want to withdraw their troops back to the British land. The Allies have the need to gather armored troops. The armored troops can buy enough time for the retreating troops. What the Allies lack is time. Now whoever moves faster will be the winner.

On the 28th of the month, 2:00 pm.

Xu Yang finally got the information sent back by the agents of the Intel, which confirmed that the UK had determined the plan to start the generator.

Under the threat of the German Air Force, the British and French commanded ships to conscript ships was finally completed after many twists and turns, making Churchill's plan to start the generator two days later than in history, and fewer ships gathered together than they had imagined.

The German Air Force issued a combat order code-named Seagull, which was designed to harass the British coastline and attack British seaports, and prevent the British from gathering ships from the people. Despite the price, Kesseling fulfilled Xu Yang's request, so that the British could not gather enough ships before the SS launched an attack.

Correspondingly, the German Supreme Command also gained benefits in this operation. They have always lacked actual information on the British coastline. The Seagull's combat operations have reconnaissed what they wanted and contributed to the Supreme Command's efforts to avoid making wrong judgments.

The operation also confirmed a problem. The British were very professional in the radar. With the existence of radar, the British could always know a few minutes in advance that the enemy had invaded, and gained enough preparation time for the British Air Force's resistance. They could even make good arrangements within a few minutes. At this point, the German Air Force suffered a small loss. In several air firefights, the German Air Force lost in the number, because the British knew the number of invading German Air Force and sent the air force with the advantage of the number to intercept it.

In terms of aircraft models, the performance of the British Spitfire, Hurricane and other fighter jets is not much worse than that of the German Air Force's Messerschmid, Donier, and Emil. According to Kesseling, under the same number of aircraft, the German Air Force does not have much advantage except for a few newly developed fighter jets. Germany's current advantage lies in that Germany can sacrifice a large number of fighter jets to fight for consumption with Britain. Of course, the so-called consumption is not meaningless to let the pilot die, so as to solve the British time advantage. For this reason, the German Air Force has had an emergency contact with the Cather William Institute to try to find a way to deal with the radar. Researchers have given the answer, using tin foil strips to deal with the British radar, which can produce strong echoes on the radar screen, and as for how to do it, this has nothing to do with the Cather William Institute.

Now, British rescue ships have finally left the port. The Royal Air Force, which has not been in action, also took off from the London airport to serve as escort, sweeping and reconnaissance tasks. In addition to the two fighter squadrons of the Royal Air Force, the British recruited each flying aircraft from the people, with a considerable number. As for whether it has combat effectiveness, only God may know.

When Xu Yang learned that Churchill had started the generator plan, he began to feel very nervous. This tension was not because he was worried about whether the British retreat could succeed, but because he was worried about whether the German Navy on the Ziram y route would be discovered by the British Navy.

In Xuyang's plan, whether the British Navy can be severely damaged can only be seen in the performance of Erich Redel and Karl Denitz this time. Of course, Xuyang will not only bet on the German Navy. The reconstruction of the coastal defense fortress under the control of the SS has been completed. Most of the regulating guns have entered the position, and with the assistance of surface reconnaissance aircraft, HNA safety that can threaten the Ziram y route with the assistance of surface reconnaissance aircraft. At the same time, the number of air bases transferred from Germany to Belgium is increasing, mainly gathering in Brussels and the area near the English Channel, which is to carry out the next stage of combat and gathering air force.

There are joys and sorrows. That is, today, Xuyang received a not-so-good news that in order to speed up the annexation of the Three Baltic Kingdoms, the Soviet Union drew several front troops from the abdomen.

One thing I have to say is that the Third German Empire played a strange role in this war. As early as three years when the Soviet Union and Finland had a war, Germany began to help Finland resist the invasion war from the Soviet Union in secret. Germany hoped that the Soviet Union would be dragged in Finland or fell into the quagmire of Finland, so that it could not threaten Germany's war of revenge (that is, the current Western Front War). Germany needed to stabilize the newly occupied area of ​​Poland, which of course also involved the so-called international interests.

During the end of 1939-early 1940, the world's pattern had basically not changed much except for Poland being divided by Germany-Suizhou, but it did not mean that Western Europe and Northern Europe were absolutely stable. The whole world knew that the Soviet Union had personal interests in Europe, and if she wanted to get the interests, she had to take action. For this reason, the war between the Soviet Union and Finland broke out. With the support of Germany in the dark, Finland fought with the Soviet army in war zones such as Vyborg and Cania.

Nonferrous, even took the military initiative in some aspects. Lan also made full use of her political advantages in Northern Europe and began to win over the Baltic Three Kingdoms on her own side through Germany. The facts proved that Finland's strategy was successful. She fully won the sympathy of the Baltic Three Kingdoms, but these were far from enough, because although the Baltic Three Kingdoms sympathized with Finland emotionally, they were just emotionally sympathy, and they did not dare to offend the Soviet Union, a behemoth.

After the Soviet Union completed its annexation of Western Ukraine last year, it immediately launched a winter war against Finland (early earlier than in history). She found that she could not defeat Finland in a short period of time and began to turn her attention to Estonia. Estonia and Finland were only one Gulf of Finland apart. The Soviet Ministry of War believed it was necessary to make a request for military passage to Estonia. Please note that it was a request, not a request. After Estonia refused, the Soviet Union found an excuse to issue a war threat to Estonia, and officially invaded Estonia half a month later, which also opened the war with Estonia-Latvia.

With the previous communication, Finland, Estonia and Latvia, the three countries quickly reached an agreement and formed a three-way alliance. In order to strengthen the momentum, the Three Kingdoms Alliance began to send friendship invitations to Lithuania, a small country. Lithuania successively exchanged friendly exchanges with the Third Reich of Germany, and agreed to join the military alliance led by Finland on the fourth day after the Three Kingdoms Alliance issued the invitation.

Germany united the military affairs of Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, because the countries led by Britain and France were called allies. In order to avoid any relationship with Britain, France and other allies, the four countries happily accepted the goodwill of the Third Reich of Germany. In the fundamental sense, the four countries now need the support of the Third Reich of Germany. Of course, the Third Reich of Germany is also willing to support the war of the Four in secret, which also laid the root of the war that Germany-Soviet in the future...

It was Rick, and he was still holding a document that needed Xu Yang's signature.

Don't think that when a battle is launched, the commander-in-chief will be so busy that he needs to do everything himself. A well-trained army will arrange every strategic scheduling in advance, and the war in each theater will be the commander of the theater. The responsibility of the commander-in-chief after the battle is launched is only to pay attention to the development of the war, and to issue necessary orders according to his own judgment at the appropriate time. If the war goes well, the commander-in-chief can be said to be very idle and has no need to do anything.

(Of course, many commanders like to turn around in front of the map and make a thoughtful look. In fact, no one knows what the commander is thinking. Take Patton as an example. After many battles were launched, he thought about what he was eating in front of the map...)

By the way, what are you doing to raise so many officers? And why do you need to arrange the so-called theater commander in the military organization? It’s crazy. If a commander-in-chief wants to do everything by himself, then those theater commanders should be shot!

It is because the war is too smooth that Xu Yang is now idle. If anyone is busiest, it is Rick, the chief of staff of the command and the group of staff under him. The person who received the information reported by the various theaters by the command is not someone else, but these staff members of the command. The staff are responsible for controlling the sharing of intelligence between the theaters, and the chief of staff will select the information that needs to be reviewed by the commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief decides what order to issue. (refers to the change plan)

The army is a rigorous group. In the army, everything has a set of rules and a clear system. The combat plan is made and implemented. Everyone knows what they should do and what they should not do. This is the army!
