The Third Reich in Desperation

Ten minutes later, on the cold deck, there was only the figure of a lonely fat man, leaning against the cannon and eating biscuits non-stop.Everyone else went to bed with peace of mind.

"Boom!" A bomb fell out of nowhere and fell on the water dozens of meters away from the fat man, splashing a burst of water.

"Fuck! It's really unlucky to be interrupted while eating a biscuit." Bob complained unhappily.

etc?Was that a cannonball just now?

Feeling something was wrong, Bob spit out a mouthful of the biscuit: "Puff! Puff!"

"Enemy attack, enemy troops are firing at us!" The fat man stumbled and ran towards the cabin where the other three were sleeping.

"What happened?!" Before the fat man ran to shout, the British second lieutenant ran towards him with two other soldiers.Apparently, they too were woken up by the loud noise.

"Boom!" The third armor-piercing projectile fired by Lengheimer's crew finally hit the British warship, flashing a violent flame.

"Hit!" Lengheimer clenched his fist and punched it on the bottom cover of the tank, shouting excitedly, "Keep this angle and keep hitting!"

Text Chapter 348 Special Operations

The German army was on its way to Dunkirk, preparing to encircle the British and French forces.

?? The large troops of the [-]th Armored Division have already taken the main road one step ahead, leaving only a few pure infantry units with companies as the rear.

Frank, as the commander of the middle company, seems to have discovered that his troops are about to have a hearty encounter with an enemy several times his own, and the place of the battle is the small Belgian village of Salz, a few kilometers away.

?? In Salz, the battalion commander Bauer of a reinforced battalion of the 13th Belgian Division was ordered to hold the village with a battalion of his troops.Although the strategic location of this village does not seem to be that important, and he does not want to lead the team, but he can only obey the orders of his superiors.

"Hey, boy, how is the situation at the entrance of the village?" Bauer came to the village entrance for a routine inspection and said to the sentinel.

"Report sir, everything is normal." The sentinel saluted.

Bauer breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, "Fortunately, it's okay, who in the Belgian army wants to fight the German army that is in full swing now. The damn war should go early, hell, who the hell wants to be baptized in the flames of war every day .”

??Bauer was born in an ordinary Belgian family. His dream since childhood was to become a primary school teacher. Unexpectedly, the sudden war shattered his dream and sent him to the battlefield.

He hated war from the bottom of his heart, and it could even be said that he deliberately avoided war.Therefore, he and the troops under his influence have a feeling of war weariness. They neglect training all day long, and the combat effectiveness of the troops is naturally not high.

What Bauer didn't know was that a well-trained and vigorous small German army was approaching Salz, and today would be the last day of this Belgian reinforced battalion.

............

?? "Report to the company commander, an abnormality has been found in the village ahead!" A German second lieutenant put down his binoculars and turned his head.

This area has long been depopulated due to the war, but the Belgians set up smoke in the open air and ate dinner happily.This is not abnormal, what is abnormal? !

............

"Sir, what should we do if we are discovered by the enemy like this?" A staff officer in the Belgian army asked.

"There are no enemies. Our small village is neither the only way for German tanks to go to Dunkirk, nor is it a strategic location. Don't worry, the German army will definitely not come to such a place .” Bauer waved his hand to interrupt the staff officer.

"The large German armored troops will not come, but I am worried that the small German infantry troops will infiltrate and penetrate our back road, what should we do?"

"Don't worry too much! We have the strength of this reinforced battalion. The small German infantry unit came, but there was no return." Ball once again interrupted the worrying staff officer.

.........??

"Cooking smoke is rising from the village ahead. Judging from the density of the smoke, this is at least enough food for a battalion of the enemy army." On the German side, Lieutenant Frank just smiled slightly.

Facing an enemy that was at least several times larger than himself, he didn't seem to panic at all.

This is a soldier's self-confidence!

From the situation in front of him, he had already predicted the outcome of this small-scale encounter.

Perhaps it was due to the negligence of the commander on the other side, his lack of defense against the enemies around him, or perhaps his confidence in his own tactical command.After all, not long ago, he was personally commended by the teacher. The teacher also praised him for his command and orderly fighting, but he dared to boldly try to make some seemingly impossible decisions.

?? Today, in this small village named Salz, the German commander Frank really wanted to use his small force to defeat the Belgian reinforcement battalion again with his own company.

??The sentry at the entrance of the village in Salz, the Belgian sentry who knew the time when Battalion Commander Bauer checked the post was sleeping soundly. He guessed that the battalion commander had just arrived, so it was still early before the next time. The sentry thought why not take this opportunity to make up for it What about the sleep I owed for playing poker with my comrades last night?

Unbeknownst to the sentry in Sleeping China, a gleaming Munich-style saber was being wiped at his throat.

"Crack!" With the sound of a knife cutting his throat, the sentinel fell down.

He even had a smile on his face when he died.Perhaps, he was dreaming about winning the war and going home to see his wife, children and parents.

Several guard posts in succession were resolved one by one by the leading sharp knife squad of the German army. Now the road to the core battalion headquarters of the Belgian reinforced battalion has been unimpeded.

For the German army, which is at a disadvantage in numbers, taking down the opponent's headquarters is like mastering the enemy's brain. The entire army has included a whole battalion of weapons and equipment together with the troops.This credit is undoubtedly another piece of good news for Frank, who has just received an award from his teacher.

In this way, it is just around the corner to increase your military rank and receive reuse!

But this is only the best case scenario, and this situation is based on the fact that the Belgian army has no awareness.

Once they noticed and found the traces of the German army, the German army was unable to move among the enemies three times their own, as if they had jumped into the encirclement of the enemy.

Although the morale of this Belgian army is low, and the troops are full of strong war weariness, they are still an army after all, and the guns in their hands are not vegetarian.

Although Belgium is a small country in Europe, it is quite influential in the manufacture of arms, especially the development of guns.As early as 1900, the world's first free-action pistol M1900 type 7.65mm was invented and designed by the famous firearms expert American Browning and manufactured in the FN factory in Belgium.

Most of the guns made in Belgium are manufactured by the FN factory, that is, the Hertal FN company in Belgium.Like the famous Browning pistol.Due to the precision processing tradition of Belgian enterprises, its level of gun manufacturing technology has been passed down as a good story, and many types of guns were even selected by the armies of various countries.

For example, M1911 is a .1911 ACP caliber semi-automatic pistol produced in 45. It was designed by American John Browning. Korean War, Vietnam War, and Persian Gulf War.

Similarly, Belgium also relies on FN to make some achievements in the research of guns such as rifles and submachine guns.Especially in this kind of face-to-face village encounter, when the German army is not familiar with the geographical environment and has no advantage in numbers, it is basically impossible for a German army to win a reinforced battalion in Belgium.

Of course, the weapons and equipment of the German army are also good. Relying on Mauser combat pistols, mp40 submachine guns, g43 semi-automatic rifles and powerful armored forces and air forces, the German army often ends a large-scale battle at an unimaginable speed.This has only been done by the German army in contemporary times.

Back to this battle, the most important thing for the German army right now is how to get into the Belgian headquarters without being discovered by the Belgians, and deal the heaviest blow to their command system.

According to the investigation of the German soldiers, the command system of the Belgian army was located in the center of the village in the west, while the attack direction of the German army was in the south of the village. The north of the village was a cliff, which was almost impossible to pass through, while the east was a forest, which was suitable for hiding.At this time, the German commander Frank put forward an idea. He wanted to select soldiers and officers above the squad leader of the entire company to form a commando, and the rest of the other large troops would feint from the woods in the east to attract most of the troops. , and the commando went straight to the command post and killed the command system, and the Belgian army should surrender.

Lieutenant Flock, commander of an infantry company in an armored division, came up with a brilliant special operations plan.

The battle plan has been laid out, and all the troops are already in place.With a shot from a Mauser pistol, the battle begins on the east side of the village, Belgium

Text Chapter 349 Tank VS Battleship

When Lengerheimer's vehicle crew fired the fifth armor-piercing shell, the Mierikon cannon on the British modified warship finally launched a counterattack.

Apparently, after being hit, the British warship also began to counterattack with its artillery.And when the machine guns on the British battleship began to shoot out dazzling flames, Lengheimer finally realized how far the firepower between a tank and a battleship was!

Because Lengerheimer and the others fired armor-piercing projectiles before, and the landing position was at the rear of the British battleship, they did not cause any casualties to the four British sailors on the battleship.

And the four British sailors were also very reluctant to let the two shipboard 4mm single-tube Mierikon machine guns fire shells, forming two cross-fire barrages.As for the accuracy and whether they can aim, it is not something they have the energy to guarantee.

Therefore, although Lengerheimer and the others felt the pressure of the gap in firepower, it was only a gap in firepower.In the powerful firepower, as long as you can't hit, it is tantamount to no use.
