Chapter 231

Internal problems and how to deal with them are only internal problems. It is the British Navy's operation that makes akado feel the pain. Now it seems that the British people seem to have a premonition of the coming of war, and they seem to have made all preparations for it.

On the contrary, it is a miscalculation of the German Navy to still think that Britain will continue to muddle along with the development of the German Navy. The cost of miscalculation was heavy, as heavy as a destroyer and a Stuka bomber. For Germany, this feud is inevitable.

At least in akkado's mind, he advocated "tooth for tooth" and "blood for blood". Therefore, if the British Navy sank a German destroyer, then the German navy would have to sink at least ten British battleships to avenge itself.

In order to get revenge, the head of state set up a new command organization: the supreme headquarters of the third empire. On the day of the establishment of this organization, akado personally ordered to use his incomparable authoritative appeal in the army and various organizations to integrate the scattered German * command system.

The armed SS army was assigned to the army command of the national defense force (IDF). The former SS organization was only used as a conscription organization to recruit soldiers to make up for the losses. The air force set up a liaison office for the Navy and the army in order to better complete the cooperative combat task.

In order to better complete the combat mission of the west line, akado will directly supervise the army commander brauchich, navy commander Randall, and air force commander Catherine to work out a combat plan for the coordinated attack of sea, land and air. However, many German officials lack interest in the war in France, and they do not want to destroy the peace that is readily available.

The intelligence department has been expanded once again, integrating the intelligence agencies of the three armed forces. With analysis and reverse osmosis, Gaskell seems to be responsible for more things. However, part of the task of arrest was assigned to the SS, which was also regarded as a subsidy to the functions and powers of the SS.

When he came to Berlin as the commander of the 21st infantry army, Manstein was very nervous. His plan was not perfect, but it was aimed at overthrowing the army's operational plan code named "yellow box".

50 is undoubtedly a very good age for a commander. At this time, generals often have the impact of daring to fight when they were young, and have mature and stable experience. And Manstein just turned 50 this year.

The content of the "yellow box" is not difficult to guess. Even the French commanders have guessed a general idea: Germany plans to prepare three groups of forces, namely, a, B and C. group C is responsible for feinting in front of the Maginot Line and trapping the French army on the Maginot line; Lundstedt's a group army was responsible for attacking Belgium and Luxembourg and breaking through the French defense there; The main force of the attack is the group B army, which is deployed in the northern part of the Netherlands and Belgium and is responsible for entering the lowland countries such as the Netherlands and Belgium all the way south.

The original "yellow box plan" was not brilliant, and the German commanders on the western front who were ordered to carry out the plan were hesitant. They, even the head of state himself, felt that this plan was not very auspicious, because it almost did not allow the German defense forces to use Blitzkrieg tactics that won a complete victory in Poland.

In Poland, the elite tank troops, motorized troops and mechanical artillery regiment were strongly supported by Stuka dive bombers, and soon broke through the sparse defense line of the Polish garrison. The armored forces rushed into the enemy's position, opened a huge gap, and the conventional infantry were able to flood in like a tide.

If this set of tactics is operated according to the yellow box plan, the key breakthrough of group B army will almost certainly collide with the British and French main forces entering Belgium. Such a collision between the two main forces is inevitable, not only the cost will be extremely high, but also the success or failure is unpredictable, and these are what akado does not want to see. Even if Britain and France suffered losses, they could go back, along the Somme River to the north of France, blockade the German in this area, and put the German army in the same deadlock as the first World War.

Of course, akado knows the right answer to this question, but he needs a military professional to complete the plan for him, and then get the consent and implementation of the whole military. The spokesman, he chose Manstein.

Manstein, prompted by akado, drew up a combat plan called operation scythe. In this battle plan, he exchanged the offensive contents of German group a army and group B Army: group a army was the main attacker, while group B army was the assistant.

In this way, the main force of the attack became general lundstedt's group a army. They will attack near the Arden plateau, cross the wooded Highlands, infiltrate under the guidance of elite armored forces, suddenly appear in front of the French army near setang, tear open the weak French defense line on the Merz river near setang, and head all the way west to the English Channel.

However, the forces of group B pressed the British and French allied forces step by step, making it impossible for the British and French main forces to turn back and escape, forming a huge encirclement and annihilating hundreds of thousands of British and French allied forces.

This plan is really liked by akkado, the head of state. Like Hitler, he has experienced the cruel trench warfare in World War I, witnessed the fierce fighting and great sacrifice with his own eyes. So like Hitler, he was full of yearning for a quick end to the war. So this plan that can directly defeat the British and French allied forces has long been his favorite. Soon the whole project was deployed.

However, there is still a long way to go for the British and French allied forces to go north to Belgium, so something very coincidental happened. Unfortunately, a German plane lost its way when crossing the Belgian border. After an emergency landing, it found that it was in Belgium. A German official on the plane violated the confidentiality order of the head of state by carrying a complete set of "yellow box plan" and a dense oil and ammunition supplement plan in his own file bag. Before he was knocked unconscious by the Belgian soldiers, he had been frantically trying to set these documents on fire - unfortunately, he didn't. So the Belgian army quickly shared this information with the French * team, because once Belgium was attacked, France would have the obligation to send troops to support it. The secret document confirmed the French side's conjecture that the main force of the German attack would invade the Netherlands, Belgium and other countries. The conceited commander-in-chief of the French army, general kammerlin, who was 68 years old at that time, made a tit for tat plan "Plan D". This plan was named because it required the British and French allied forces to advance to defend the Dale river. The so-called Dale River defense line is Dinan, a small Belgian town on the banks of the damez River, stretching all the way south from Antwerp. After he got the information, in order to ensure the safety of his ally Holland, he ordered the British and French forces to extend the defense line northward to the town of Breda in Holland. And the number of troops deployed in the lowland countries to the north of France was increased from 19 divisions to 30 divisions. At this point, anyone who knows the history will know that the plane crash landing accident actually happened in another time and space in 1940. How can there be such a coincidence in the world that the same thing can happen more than two years ahead of schedule according to the needs of akado? Of course, there won't be such a coincidence, but akkado, who knows the whole story, ordered gascol's German intelligence department to design a shocking cross time and space deception. They used real intelligence, they used real commanders. Except for a few executors, no one knew the truth of the accident. After learning the news of France's main force going north through the Dutch intelligence agency, akado knew that the opportunity of revenge came. He summoned the generals of the army and deployed a series of tasks. In order to confuse the French, he carefully delivered a confusing new year's greeting denouncing the Soviet government on New Year's day in 1938. On the new year's day of 1938, the head of the Empire, akkado? Rudolph got on a special train. It has been announced that the first of the two generations will go to Hamburg to inspect the reconstruction process of the shipyard there, but the train suddenly turns to the southwest when it reaches two-thirds of the distance. In Hanover, akado met with his team of meteorologists, who expect good weather conditions in the next few days. The head of state's long-awaited "operation sickle" can start at any time. Unfortunately, on January 2, snow began to fall in northwest Germany, and the plan had to be postponed again and again. With the shaking of the train, akado is more and more nervous. To tell the truth, he is almost the same as an ordinary German general now. The long history beyond recognition makes him unable to accurately predict the trend of future events. All he can do is to wait anxiously for the twisted history to develop in the direction he wants. Listening to the banging sound of the wheel hitting the rail, the Fuehrer akado lost sleep. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, worried about the weather and all kinds of difficulties he might encounter later. In addition, he was worried about the German Navy and whether it could seize the opportunity to realize the century long dream of the German Navy. In the snow, akado and Anna drove 12 miles in the car. He came to the new headquarters of the supreme headquarters of the western German Empire, which was a bunker blasted out from the foot of a wooded mountain. Akkado was not free from vulgarity, and he followed the name Hitler gave here - Shibao. The bad weather showed no sign of improving, and the German army was forced to delay the attack it was supposed to launch. Akkado was restless and walked impatiently up and down the stone castle's office. However, this delay has given army generals a sigh of relief. They have gained more time to transport troops, hoard supplies, and prepare bombs and shells to be used in the new war.
