2073 Raid 1
When the sun rose again, the German Army Group, which had spent a whole night crossing the front, was almost ready to move. The entire eight armored divisions had more than 1,000 various tanks, assault guns and armored vehicles, formed a wide attack front of dozens of kilometers. Behind them were German troops with more than 25 divisions ready to follow up at any time! The first wave of troops exceeding 500,000 were squeezing through the junction of the British and French coalition forces to make a fierce attack at the fragile weakness of the British!
Thousands of chariots and tens of thousands of semi-tracked trucks and trucks were galloping in the vast field. The smoke brought by the vehicles as they marched even obscured the rising sun. Looking from the sky, dozens of gray-black steel dragons were galloping wildly on the roads and wilderness. They circled behind the British and then divided into two groups, one of which galloped towards the north coast. The other party launched an attack on the British without any defense! From now on, the time for the British Expeditionary Force to survive can only be calculated in hours!
"It's the Germans! They appeared behind us!" When a British officer picked up the phone in panic and reported to his superiors, the whistling shells had already hit him. Groups of tanks formed an invincible front to attack quickly. They easily crushed the British defense line built with sandbags and wood and grass, and used dense shells and machine gun bullets to harvest all the British army.
The first ones to suffer were the British rear troop stations, warehouses and long-range artillery units! These troops that did not have to face the fierce battle were immediately cleansed by the Germans!
Thousands of long-range cannons, siege cannons and train cannons were deployed behind the British defense line. Originally, these intimidating steel giants were the pillars of the British defense line. They had failed the German attacks with fierce artillery fire countless times. The tens of thousands of tons of shells they fired made the Germans suffer more than six-digit casualties! And now, these weapons are extremely fragile when facing the armored troops entering the rear of the Germans!
"Our attack has been launched, and the front line is full of flowers. On the front with a width of at least 10 kilometers, we easily destroyed all the British troops that we could encounter. Their stations, warehouses, stations and railways were all under our attack. We tear everything we encountered into pieces like an all-encompassing storm!"
"The explosions sounded one after another in a radius of hundreds of square kilometers, and balls of flames and smoke spread on the ground. Our army easily tortured the opponent like driving tigers into a flock of sheep. We charged, attacked, cut, surrounded, and annihilated. The British had built a defense system for two years and collapsed under our attack!" A German officer described the scene at that time in his diary. The British guessed that the Germans would attack, but they did not expect the Germans' attack to be so fast and sharp! For the first time after the attack began, the Germans' offensive was invincible.
The British finally realized the danger of destruction, and the first thing they reacted was the Air Force. They mobilized more quickly and were more mobile! This time, before the British Army organized an effective counterattack, these remaining Royal Army air force had already launched a counterattack first. Although in the face of the overwhelming Luftwaffe, this counterattack had no other effect than interpreting the heroic battle of the British!
Hundreds of British aircraft that had not yet been affected took off from various airports. They had no unified command and combat plan, and the weapons they carried were messy. Whether they were loading high-explosive bombs or incendiary bombs under the wings, whether they were dealing with infantry or light protection vehicles, they just threw away all their weapons at the German army on the ground according to the above orders, and then immediately returned to the base to carry the ammunition and attack again! However, when these British pilots took off and faced the German army, which could be described as floods, they were completely desperate.
"The Germans' gray-black military uniforms almost covered the entire land. The troops, tanks, assault guns, and vehicles rushed towards our defense lines with unstoppable momentum. If these defense lines were as paper as possible, they would be easily broken. My comrades in the squadron and launched an attack. We dropped dozens of bombs and knocked out tens of thousands of bullets, but facing the endless German army, our attack had no effect at all."
"The Germans' counterattack firepower was very fierce. Although they did not deliberately organize air defense, the fierce firepower still made us feel desperate when hundreds of large-caliber machine guns and machine guns aimed at the sky! A breathless fire king covered us. Several of my colleagues were easily swallowed like small insects falling into a spider web. My back seat was pierced directly by several bullets. I was lucky enough to return to the base with my comrade's blood and the shaking plane. After returning to the base, an officer gave me a rifle. He said, my plane could no longer take off, and now you are an infantryman." After the war, a British pilot recalled the scene like this!
The seemingly huge fleet of the British was soon ignored by the extremely large number of German troops. The German armored troops in front began to quickly break through the defense line that divided the British people. At the back, more than a dozen infantry divisions and fast divisions followed the pace of the German troops in front. The Germans' first task was to divide the fourth and fifth armies, the southernmost British army, with the main force of the British army. After completing the division, the army group a group will continue to attack the remaining three British armies, and after entering the southern line, the army b will take over the siege of the British Fourth and Fifth armies, and then slowly eat it.
When the German Army took advantage of the chaos of the British, a huge fleet of more than 2,000 aircraft also landed on the heads of the British. The aircraft cluster was like a black cloud covering the sky and the exhaust gas discharged from the aircraft engine left thousands of white marks in the air. Thousands of bombs and thousands of machine guns kept harvesting life on the ground like the sickle of the god of death. They flew over the British front and launched crazy attacks on the bridges, stations and roads within the British army's control group.
"I will command the three reserve divisions of the Fourth Army to launch an attack westward, and build a defense system here based on the terrain and rivers. If I am lucky, we can block the German army for 2 days. During this period, I hope the main force of the Fourth Army can evacuate northward and revolve with the main force of the British army." At this time, General Short, who served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Fourth Army, responded first. Before Marshal Heg issued the order, the conscientious British general began to plan a counterattack.
