Third Reich Episode 460
With an academic background, he knows better than anyone else that the more the strength of the Soviet army is worn out in the upcoming battle, the easier it will be to successfully complete the "blitzkrieg".
Perhaps the commander of the Soviet army is still proud of the fact that the road system built with German aid has improved the logistics and transportation situation.
But Guderian is very clear, who are these roads and railways built for the Soviet Union according to European standards!
Certainly not for the Soviet Army!These roads are all prepared for the German tanks and chariots, in order to smoothly and quickly break into the hinterland of the Soviet Union after the counterattack, disrupt the rear deployment of the Soviet army on a large scale, and advance quickly.
And those railway networks that meet European standards can easily later become the railway network for transporting materials in Germany.Once the German army launches a rapid counter-offensive, these railways that fall under German control can be used directly on the domestic track!
"It's really tormenting. Obviously we can immediately wipe out the millions of Soviet troops in front of us, but in order to reduce losses, we use the defense line to wait for them to hit and die." Guderian, who had already predicted the direction of the next battle, was a little excited Said.
"Wait a little longer." After hearing Guderian's emotion, Bock smiled and comforted: "The Finnish and Norwegian Allies of the Northern Army Group, the Romanian Allied Forces and the Bulgarian Allied Forces of the Southern Army Group, those are all It can be assembled in place at the beginning, and it can immediately follow our German army to launch a counterattack."
"Our Central Army Group is different. It will not be considered complete until the Italian Allied Forces and Spanish Allied Forces are in place." Bock chatted with Guderian with great interest: "We are right opposite the Soviets, and we can't always let them Such a large-scale Allied force entered the position in advance, otherwise the Soviet army should be more vigilant."
Of course Guderian knew what Bok said.Not only did he know that the allied forces from Italy and Spain were coming, but he also knew the specific strength of the allied forces that were coming.
There is no doubt that those who come are the most elite troops that the two countries can produce.
Among them, Guderian knew that those who could quickly follow up the actions of their own armored forces used 2 semi-motorized divisions, 1 fast division, 1 pro-armored division, and 1 German armored division in the Italian Expeditionary Army. Old Armored Division.
In addition, the 10 German armored divisions of the Spanish Expeditionary Force, as well as the 3 main divisions and 3 black shirt regiments sent by Italy, are also the first-class elite troops of the two countries. For Bock, it is a very impressive force. powerful force.
The purpose of the creation of the Central Army Group is to capture the political and economic city of the Soviet Union-Moscow!
For this reason, both Bock and Guderian knew that the pressure they would bear face to face would definitely be the greatest among the three major German armies.
Therefore, with such a powerful coalition of two allies joining in, they naturally readily accepted it.
With such a powerful force, Bock can ensure that after the Central Army Group's front line spreads out, he will not have to split up the German troops he has concentrated on due to the dispersion of troops. There is no need to go, the reserve team will continue to fill in the maintenance front line This bottomless pit.
The 23-division size and relatively reliable and powerful allied forces will disperse a large part of the pressure on Bock.
Such a powerful allied force is an advantage that the Central Army Group did not have in history.
Moreover, this is not all the troops provided by the Allies to the Central Army Group.
After the Central Army Group achieves a comprehensive breakthrough, Italian Prime Minister Rossi will immediately provide 10 Italian second-rate divisions to help maintain law and order in the occupied area.In the future, we will continue to provide Italian troops to the Central Army Group to guard the rear as much as we can.
As a result, a very interesting phenomenon appeared on the Soviet-German battlefield. This battlefield seemed to be cursed by the number "3".
First of all, the deployment of the German army is mainly divided into three major army groups.
In the area under the responsibility of the Northern Army Group, the three-nation coalition composed of Germany, Norway, and Finland is rapidly defeating the Soviet army in North Africa with the assistance of the resistance organizations of the three Baltic countries.
In the area under the responsibility of the Southern Army Group, the German army, the Romanian army, the Bulgarian army (following the army), and the three-nation coalition army also fought very smoothly against the elite Soviet troops.
And the Central Army Group will immediately launch a full-scale counterattack after gathering the three-nation coalition forces composed of Germany, Italy, and Spain, turning defense into offense, and defeating and destroying the main Soviet army in front of them in one fell swoop.
Coincidentally, the time for the completion of the assembly of the Italian and Spanish Allied Forces is precisely estimated to be counted from today as the first day, and the next third day.
BODY 695 Randolph Churchill
The sky is grey.
Randolph Churchill hadn't eaten for the second day. The emptiness of hunger and the fear of death were as suffocating as if he was being pushed into water. Sometimes there were desperate screams in his ears, and then several gunshots There was a loud noise, and everything returned to calm, just like usual, eerily quiet.
Randolph looked away from the window and looked at this small place of more than forty square meters. There was a sofa next to the window. Opposite the window was a messy kitchen that had not been used for a long time. The piano, the whole room is so simple that he was immediately familiar with it when he first arrived, even if he is blind, he can live here freely.
In hunger, he left the window, walked slowly to the piano like a dead man, put his hands lightly on the keys, took a breath, and skillfully danced his fingers in the air, playing the song of his destiny in his mind.However, his fingers did not press the keys, and there was silence around him, because he had to live quietly, as if the world did not exist without him.
Once upon a time, Randolph was still a standard official second generation, the son of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, with infinite glory.But in the blink of an eye, he was reduced to a situation like a street mouse.
The German army has occupied the city of London for several days. Randolph, who got the news in advance, was lucky enough to hide in this corner and escaped being captured by the German army.
Perhaps, the reason why Randolph was able to escape the fate of being captured was because the Duke of Gott, who was in power, kindly let him go, and did not take him away like he did with Churchill.Or maybe, he is just a small person now, not worthy of being remembered by those in the upper class.
Therefore, when the British government moved to Ireland as a whole, Randolph, the son of Churchill, the former Prime Minister of the British Empire, did not leave London with him, but chose to hide quietly in this bombed city. up.
Today, he is presumably hiding out in a small warehouse lost to its original owner by the war.The door facing the only window of the warehouse has basically collapsed.And not long after Randolph entered here, the gate on the first floor was also locked from the outside by German soldiers who were probably maintaining law and order. It was probably because the German army redistributed the belonging points of the people in the block in order to maintain law and order.
The thick dust and the cobwebs in the eyes give people a sense of dilapidation where no one is here. No one knows that there is a hole about the size of an egg in the corner of the wall covered by debris beside the door. It is Randolph and his wife. The only connection to the outside world is also his source of life. Before that, his friends delivered life supplies to him through this hole.
After all, he was the son of the former prime minister. Even in this troubled world, even if most people in London couldn't eat enough, there were always people in the class Randolph knew who could easily get enough food.
However, on the day when the army fully occupied the north bank of the River Thames in London, Randolph's friends never came to bring him food on time.
At that time, Randolph had a premonition of the fate of himself and even the whole of Britain...
Relying on the ten or so cooked potatoes and the seven pots of water in the military kettle, he managed to survive the first two days without receiving supplies.
But in the future...
"How long have I been here? 3 days? 4 days? Ah~ at least 6 days!" Randolph only dared to think silently in his heart, as if he was born dumb.After all, he knew that there were German troops outside, and even the entire island of Great Britain was filled with troops from the Allied Powers.
After pulling the corner of his mouth helplessly and smiling bitterly, he walked to the chair and lay down, squinting his eyes and emptying his body, letting time pass by slowly.
In a trance, Randolph seemed to have come to a warm room, and he saw a face he had dreamed of: "Mancy, Mancy, I..." His eyes moistened instantly as he spoke.
In the hallucination, the woman named Manxi gently touched his mouth with her index finger: "Shh... I know, I love you too, live well..."
As he spoke, the woman's body became more and more transparent. Randolph wanted to grab her, but he found that he couldn't touch her at all.
For a while, Randolph was sweating profusely, and kept muttering: "Don't go, Mancy, don't leave me!"
In the hallucination, Muncie seemed to be unable to hear what Randolph said at all, and she kept smiling all the time, slowly disappearing like dissipating smoke, and disappeared at the last moment.
"No!" Randolph yelled in pain, and wept with his face masked on his knees.Suddenly, the world around him twisted and changed rapidly. For some reason, he was on a crowded road, and the crowd hurriedly moved in one direction, only to hear "Run!", "Help!", "..."
When Randolph was about to get up before he had time to think about it, he subconsciously looked above his head, and a shell shot straight at him as if he had eyes.
"Boom!" The explosion sounded, and Randolph suddenly woke up from his trance.
He opened his eyes suddenly, and there was silence around him, until Randolph subconsciously touched the corners of his eyes, which were already stained with tears.
"Mancy..." He bluffed a few times, but he didn't make a sound after all.
......
Berlin, Germany.
"Ms. Mancy Gertler, I want to thank you solemnly for your contribution to the empire!"
In Reinhardt's residence of the head of state, Reinhardt is personally expressing his gratitude to Mansi: "You are one of the most outstanding intelligence personnel of the empire who penetrated into the UK. I must thank you on behalf of the empire , because your role in this war is at least equal to the value of an infantry division!"
"It's my greatest honor, dear head of state." Mansi still maintained her signature smile, just like she had shown in England over the years, with a charming temperament.
Born in Mansi in Hungary in 1908, after Reinhardt established Hungary as the southern province of Germany, he was soon notified by the secret police to go to the UK to assist the German intelligence personnel in the UK to carry out espionage work.
