This kind of interrogation is a routine activity of the intelligence department, and the intelligence agents did not expect to obtain valuable information.Unexpectedly, one of the Teutonic soldiers was extremely timid. Under the intimidation of the intelligence personnel, he told everything he knew like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and even revealed what color underwear his girlfriend liked.

The timid soldier's eloquent narration naturally revealed the matter of protecting Hualan workers.Originally, this soldier was just a low-level police officer, and he didn't know much, so he was very vague about the situation.But the intelligence agents who inquired were all professionally trained, and they immediately felt the importance of these clues.This information was quickly reported and supported by intelligence agencies.

Although the soldier was vague and there was not much valuable information in it, he provided the intelligence department with a direction for reconnaissance after all.As a veteran intelligence agency, MI[-] of the Saar Empire had great power. They immediately launched reconnaissance in the Teutonic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which shocked the Saar people.

Since 1915, Hualan workers have been migrating to the Teutonic country in an organized manner. In 1917, when the Teutonic army attacked the most violently, the migration of workers reached its peak. As of September 1918, there have been more than 9 million workers. A Hualan worker worked in the large and small factories of the Teutonic State and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, supporting the wartime production of the two industrial powers.

Upon receiving this news, the Saar people were completely shocked.Originally, they wondered why the Teutonic Army had such a sufficient source of troops and could maintain the high-speed operation of the country's industrial system. This turned out to be the crux of the matter.After obtaining strong evidence, Sa'er State immediately bypassed the Hualan central government and sent a stern note directly to the Western Special Zone.

They claimed that the practice of the Western Special Zone had seriously affected the just cause of the Allies.They demanded that the Western Special Zone immediately withdraw these workers and cut off all funding to the Allied Powers, otherwise Saar would have the right to initiate a summit meeting of the Allied Powers to discuss the proposal to expel Hualan from the Allied Powers.

The words of the Saar people were just words. Just looking at the advancing speed of Wu Ziyu's army, they were not willing to expel Hualan's army.They only said such cruel words in order to get rid of the salary as soon as possible and crush the industrial system of the Teutonic country.

What the Sa'er people didn't expect was that their actions fell into Zhao Shouhong's arms, giving him an excuse to leave the Western Continent.Zhao Shouhong sent a memorandum of explanation to Saar Kingdom, claiming that Hualan Kingdom was a neutral country at the beginning, and the export of labor was in line with the scope of international law, and these labor exports were all non-governmental activities and had nothing to do with the government.Now, as a member of the Allied Powers, they are very willing to recall these workers of Hualan nationality to show Hualan's determination to work hard for the just cause of the Allied Powers.

Just when the Saar government issued a note requesting the Western Special Zone to evacuate the skilled workers stationed in the Teutonic state as soon as possible, the Hualan army led by Wu Ziyu and the joint force of the No.40 Eighth Infantry Brigade of the White Eagle State had already advanced to Paris. suburbs.

As the capital of Gaul, the Teutonic army's occupation of Paris has special significance, and it has a considerable impact on the morale of both sides.It can be said that as long as the Teutonic Army still occupies this place, the Allied Powers will have a psychological advantage over the Allied Forces.Once the Allied forces regained Paris, the morale of the Teutonic army would plummet, and the defeat of the Allies would be doomed.

Both sides knew the significance of Paris to the end of the war, so they both invested heavily.Hualan's participating army invested all 25 troops. In addition to the No.40 Eighth Infantry Brigade, the newly formed main force of the White Eagle Kingdom, the First and Second Group Armies, was also invested in this direction.

Chapter 789 Joint Attack

Pershing also attached great importance to the attack on Paris. He sent Lieutenant General John Paxin as Wu Ziyu's deputy, and was responsible for coordinating the coordinated operations between the White Eagle Army and the Hualan Army.Lieutenant General John Paxin and Xu Shuzheng once had a very pleasant cooperation experience. He was very friendly to the Hualan Army and recognized their fighting spirit.

In order to enable the two armies to better cooperate in operations, John Paxin also selected a group of people from the division-level staff officers of each unit to serve as liaison officers for the joint command.Admiral Wu Ziyu was also polite. He directly placed the headquarters in La Défense, a suburb of Paris, and personally commanded the troops to attack Paris.

After a period of delay, the anti-tank guns of the Teutonic Army were finally sent to the frontline troops.Although the first batch of artillery was only a mere sixty pieces, it greatly boosted morale and gave the Teutonic soldiers hope of fighting tanks.

Wu Ziyu didn't know about this. To be on the safe side, he ordered the artillery to shell the Teutonic Army's positions outside Paris in accordance with the conventional combat method.Although the Hualan army did not carry large-caliber artillery, their largest caliber howitzer was only [-]mm, but the White Eagle Army spent a lot of money, and the heavy artillery regiment attached to the group army even had [-]mm caliber cannon.

With Wu Ziyu's order, hundreds of cannons opened fire at the same time, and the dense large-caliber shells hit the Teutonic army's position like hailstones, blowing up the originally neat trenches into large irregular shallow pits, and looking out of Paris from the air Just like the surface of the moon.

The artillery fire of the Teutonic Army quickly began to counterattack. The artillery shells from both sides shot across the sky like meteors. From time to time, shells collided in the air, bursting into large groups of sparks, which looked spectacular.It's just that the soldiers on both sides didn't want to watch such a spectacular scene. They nestled in the trenches and wrapped their clothes tightly, shrinking themselves into a ball as much as possible to reduce the possibility of injury.

The fierce shelling from both sides, the most unlucky one was the infantry position, especially the Teutonic soldiers on the disadvantaged side, they could only endure it silently, and at the same time prayed in their hearts that the shelling would pass quickly.The Teutonic Army stationed only one group army of 10,000+ troops in Paris, with only more than 30 large-caliber artillery pieces. Facing the superior artillery fire of the Allied Forces, they were quickly suppressed.

The artillery shells of the White Eagle Army hit the artillery positions of the Teutonic Army one after another, blowing up the Teutonic artillery. After suffering some losses, they were forced to retreat to preserve their strength.After losing the opponent's artillery counterattack, the artillery of the White Eagle Army and the Hualan Army continued to bombard the forward position for another half an hour, and did not start to extend their shooting until they sorted out the opponent's position twice.

The artillery fire began to shoot in depth, and Wu Ziyu immediately issued the order to attack.Following his order, the 70 tanks of the First Tank Army of the West Special Army spewed out thick black smoke and started moving in the direction of Paris.On the left flank of the tanks of the West Army, more than [-] large vagrant tanks belonging to the [-]st Mechanized Infantry Division of the newly formed First Army of the White Eagle Army also began to charge.

"Hurry up, pull them all out." Seeing the opponent's tank start to charge, the Teutonic soldiers hiding in the anti-gun hole immediately pushed out the low anti-tank gun.The artillery quickly adjusted the direction and height, and loaded special armor-piercing shells.

"Fire." Following the commander's order, a burst of flames burst out from the muzzle of the anti-tank gun, and the shell hit the leading Benlang 1 tank with a whoosh.The shell exploded on the left track of the tank, not only breaking the track, but also shattering the first load-bearing wheel.With the sound of clattering, the broken track fell to the ground, and the tank immediately lost its ability to move.

"The Teutonic Army has anti-tank firepower, and all tanks focus on attacking." The frontline commander discovered the situation immediately, and he sent the situation to every tank commander through a microwave communicator.All the commanders answered loudly, and at the same time began to search for the anti-tank artillery firepower at the front of the Teutonic Army.

Like the anti-tank gun of the Teutonic Army, the Benlang 1 tank also uses a 37mm long-barreled gun, because the barrel has a higher multiple-to-diameter ratio and a longer range.After receiving the commander's reminder, the tank gunners immediately began to look for anti-tank guns to attack. When the two sides bombarded each other, the unprotected Teutonic gunners were soon out of luck.

Whenever an anti-tank gun fires, it will attract a concentrated fire attack from several tanks.Every time those Teutonic artillery fired a shell, everyone was not spared, and in the end the Teutonic artillery hardly dared to fire any more.Unlike the Hualan Army's offensive direction, the White Eagle Army's tank units could only attack spontaneously after discovering the Teutonic Army's anti-tank guns because they had no means of communication.Such uncoordinated operations will inevitably affect the effect. As a result, the slow-moving White Eagle Army Renault FT17 tanks were destroyed one by one. When the White Eagle Army attacked the first line of defense of the Teutonic Army, there were only less than ten tanks left.

As the liaison officer of the White Eagle Army's [-]st Mechanized Infantry Division, Lieutenant Colonel George Marshall's eyes lit up.At this time, he was in the headquarters of Liu Yuanxun's First Army, observing the front line that was fighting fiercely a thousand meters away.Seeing his own tanks being destroyed one by one, and the exposed infantry being shot by the Teutonic army's machine guns with heavy casualties, he turned his head to Liu Yuanxun and said, "General Liu, can you..."

Before George Marshall finished speaking, Liu Yuanxun had already answered: "Lieutenant Colonel Marshall, please rest assured, we will naturally not ignore our allies."

Liu Yuanxun turned his head and said to the radio operator: "Order the Second Tank Battalion to turn around and support the attack of the White Eagle Army."

The armor of the whole body of the tank is not the same thickness. Generally, in order to reduce the structural weight, the front armor of the tank is the thickest, followed by the side armor, the rear armor is the third, and the thinnest is the top armor.Because of this structure, it is very dangerous for the tank to expose the side armor. Therefore, it is quite a risky decision for Liu Yuanxun to order a tank battalion to turn and expose his fragile side armor to the Teutonic army.

The West Army is a well-disciplined army. As long as the commander issues strict orders, even the death-death troops will choose to attack.After Liu Yuanxun issued the order, Sun Liren, who had been promoted to the battalion commander of the Second Tank Battalion, issued the order without hesitation, and then he directed the driver to drive at full speed, and was the first to turn in front of the formation, heading towards the White Eagle Army's attacking position rush away.

After turning around in front of the formation, the bombing area of ​​the Benlang 1 tanks of the Second Tank Battalion greatly increased, which quickly attracted the firepower of the Teutonic Army.Three tanks were shot one after another and caught fire and were completely scrapped, and the members of the tanks were killed or wounded.However, the other tanks of the tank battalion remained unmoved, still resolutely carried out the order, and quickly penetrated towards the flank of the Teutonic Army.

7 Chapter Ninety: Street Fighting in Paris

Seeing that the second tank battalion was being attacked by concentrated fire, the battalion commander of the first tank battalion immediately issued an order, and the direction of the third tank company was slightly deflected, quickly blocking the flank of the second tank battalion.Under the cover of the fraternal troops, the Second Tank Battalion successfully completed the front turn and directly inserted obliquely into the second line of defense of the Teutonic Army.

Seeing that his side was covered by the third tank company and the flanks were completely safe, Sun Liren ordered loudly: "All the tanks form a wild goose formation and follow me." Pass through the gap between the two lines of defense of the Teutonic Army.

The anti-tank guns of the Teutonic Army were all on the first line of defense against the White Eagle tanks, and they couldn't get out at all.At this time, Sun Liren's tank battalion appeared in the rear, and they didn't even have a chance to turn their guns.All the tanks and machine guns on the two wings fired at full force, firing wildly at the two lines of defense, desperately harvesting the Teutonic soldiers who were close at hand.

Facing the iron-clad monster right in front of them, no matter how courageous the Teutonic soldiers were, they dared not stand firm anymore.Among the two options of leaving to die and retreating to survive, they decisively chose the latter.The Teutonic Army quickly abandoned two positions and retreated to the rear.They discarded cumbersome Mark machine guns, 37mm anti-tank guns, mortars of various calibers and shells, and countless corpses.

Seeing the tanks of the Hualan Army coming to support them, the soldiers of the White Eagle Kingdom's [-]st Mechanized Division burst into cheers.The commander notified the remaining tank troops with semaphore, and they quickly followed Sun Liren's tank battalion and advanced towards the city of Paris.The Teutonic Army's anti-tank guns were completely destroyed in World War I, and the Teutonic Army, which was sticking to the follow-up line of defense, was forced to take out all the reserve anti-tank guns.

As the most primitive anti-tank weapon, the anti-tank gun mainly relies on lengthening the barrel and charge to increase the initial velocity of the warhead, and at the same time uses alloy warhead bullets to increase the armor-piercing ability.However, as an individual weapon, a soldier's physical capacity is limited, so it is impossible for an anti-tank gun to increase its power infinitely, and even so, it cannot be used frequently.

Because the recoil of anti-tank guns is so strong, even the strongest soldiers can only take three bullets before they become numb and unable to move.If it is a soldier who has not undergone special training, I am afraid that one bullet will break the collarbone.

Facing the hundreds of tanks rushing up, the soldiers of the Teutonic Army had no choice but to fight back with anti-tank guns.However, the anti-tank rifle with poor armor-piercing ability can do nothing to the 300mm front armor of the Wolf 1 tank at a distance of [-] meters.Most of the tanks that were destroyed were only broken tracks, and as long as they were connected, they could be put into battle again.

Seeing that the anti-tank guns were unable to achieve success, the Teutonic Army had no choice but to retreat into the urban area of ​​Paris and stand firm, trying to weaken the tank advantage of the Allies through street fighting.

The approach of the Teutonic army was quite effective. After withdrawing into the loss, the tanks lost the target of attack, and they had to wander the streets, looking for possible firepower points of the Teutonic army.The soldiers of the Teutonic Army are all on top, condescending, they can attack the weak top armor of the tank, and facing the thin top armor, they can penetrate even with rifles.

In the city of Paris, the Teutonic army was familiar with the terrain, and after being engaged in street fighting, it was like a fish in water, and soon overwhelmed the Hualan army that broke into the city.After losing more than 600 people and more than a dozen tanks, Wu Ziyu was forced to announce the suspension of the attack, and all troops retreated to the edge of the city to defend and wait for the next order.

Seeing the retreat of the Hualan Army, the Teutonic Army thought it had an opportunity and immediately launched a counterattack.However, the coaxial machine gun of the rear tank told the Teutonic Army the difference between machines and humans. After losing hundreds of people, the Teutonic Army shrank back.

Regarding the possible street fighting and the complicated streets in Paris, the capital of Gaul, John Pashin, Xu Shuzheng and others were helpless. Even Brigadier General MacArthur could only stand there smoking his pipe in a daze, unable to come up with any useful solutions.

Wu Ziyu snorted coldly and said, "Want to use street fighting to blackmail me? The Teutonic Army is still a little weak. Immediately notify the logistics team to transport our spare weapons to each army, and the distribution must be completed overnight."

"Spare weapon?" MacArthur and John Paxin looked at each other, they didn't know that Wu Ziyu still had a backup weapon in his hand, and now it seemed that it was specially prepared for street fighting.

John Pashin and MacArthur soon knew what each other's weapons were. The shiny black bursting rifles, and the Type [-] submachine guns with honeycomb heat dissipation sleeves on the barrels were quickly distributed to every soldier.John Paxin also had a type [-] submachine gun presented by Xu Shuzheng, so he naturally knew the power of this weapon.Now seeing Hualan soldiers holding such a submachine gun, he immediately had absolute confidence in capturing Paris.

The street fighting began soon. Soldiers from both sides fought fiercely along the narrow alleys. The two sides fought fiercely from house to house, squeezing the Teutonic army's room for movement little by little.Faced with such close combat, the shell guns and submachine guns with short, flexible guns and extremely high rates of fire have become the protagonists.On the other hand, the Teutonic Army had difficulty turning around in the narrow courtyard because the GEW98 rifle was too long. As a result, a large number of casualties were caused by the Teutonic Army. Zhao Shouhong's suggestion for improvement to Mauser turned out to be a reality.

Different from the Hualan Army's full set of street fighting weapons from shell guns to grenades, the White Eagle Army also has Colt pistols for self-defense, but because of their poor ability to resist, they are often attacked by Teutonic soldiers. The casualties were heavy.

After paying a heavy price, the Hualan Army and the White Eagle Army joined forces to wipe out the Teutonic Army stationed in Paris in one fell swoop.Because the street fighting was too fierce, the whole of Paris was almost in ruins.

The next morning, the 40st Tank Division of the [-]st Tank Corps of the West Special Army led by Liu Yuanxun and the No. [-] Eighth Infantry Brigade of the White Eagle State led by MacArthur held a grand entrance ceremony.The two armies lined up neatly and walked through the Arc de Triomphe with their heads held high.It is headed by three Benlang [-] tanks in red and hanging colors, followed by a whole team of tanks, and behind them is the neat formation of the Hualan Army and the White Eagle Army.

Looking at the majestic and mighty army, the people of Gaul joined the road to welcome and cheer for the allied forces of the Allied Powers who liberated them.The Hualan Army and the White Eagle Army earned a lot of face, and also received a telegram from Marshal Foch.The only dissatisfaction is the Gaul army. In the battle to liberate their capital, they did not catch up. For this reason, several French army commanders were severely criticized by the Prime Minister.

Despite the embarrassment on the face, the Gaul government returned to Paris, and the Gallic Prime Minister Clemenceau was able to return to the prime minister's office in the Elysee Palace.The matter quickly subsided, but the war continued. The Saar army and the Gaul army who were chasing up did not dare to neglect, and immediately increased their attack on the Teutonic army.

Chapter 791 The Dilemma of the Gaul Army

The Teutonic army began to retreat steadily, and the fate of failure was irreversible.Just when the Teutonic government was in dire straits, William II received a letter from Zhao Shouhong himself.Zhao Shouhong's letter was very polite. He listed the whole process of the Saarland intelligence organization's discovery of the Hualan workers' work in Teutonic. At the same time, he said that he had to make a difficult decision under the pressure of the allies of the Allied Powers.He will issue an order in a few days to withdraw all skilled workers in the Allied countries to the Western District, and he can only say sorry for the damage caused to the Teutonic state.

After reading the letter from beginning to end, although William II was extremely angry, he couldn't get angry.Zhao Shouhong wrote quite clearly that the Saar Intelligence Bureau only found out the matter after the captured Teutonic soldiers inadvertently leaked the secret.In other words, this incident was leaked by the Teutonic side, and it cannot be blamed on the Western Special Administrative Region.

The Western Special Zone is not the central government, so there is no way to refute Duan Ruiquan's decision to declare war on the Allies, not to mention that Chen Wenbao personally explained it back then, and handed over the precious synthetic ammonia technology to the Teutonic Kingdom, which can be described as the utmost benevolence.This time the situation was again caused by the negligence of the Teutonic Kingdom, and William II couldn't blame the other party.

"I think these workers should be detained. We have more than 300 million Hualan workers in our hands. I believe that when the other side attacks, they will have scruples." General Hindenburg, who had withdrawn from the front line, suggested.
