Chapter 378

Just when the United States rushed to support Britain, German tanks had swept the west coast of France, and 70000 British soldiers were captured without much resistance. As a result, none of the British expeditionary forces deployed on the European continent could escape and were all captured in German concentration camps.

At this time, the front fender of the tank of the 1st Armored Division of the German armored forces, which is closest to Paris, is less than 20 kilometers away from the center of the French capital. De Gaulle prevented a slight resistance. Two B1 tanks attempted to attack the German tanks on the flank. However, the alert German reconnaissance troops found the ambush circle, called Stuka in the air, destroyed the French tanks and killed 20 French soldiers in the ambush.

In the capital of Germany, near the suburbs, people are waiting in line to fill in the application form, so that they can join the invincible German * team and help their own nation expand its territory. The citizens who came to sign up for the great German Party and the great head of state, akkado? Rudolph, with inexplicable fanaticism, was willing to pledge allegiance to the great head of state and the country by pressing their hands on the national flag.

It can be described as a sea of people, which is no less than the British sailors registration office. This nation called Germany is as good as the British. They are willing to sacrifice their lives for their motherland and forge German swords for their ploughs.

This is also the foundation of Germany's invincibility and the driving force of its strong prosperity. After filling out their own forms, young and strong men go to the trucks nearby. When they get together, someone will take them away. What is waiting for them is 60 days of hard training. These people need at least 300 bullets before they can leave the new camp and be assigned to the troops in the front line to fight for their motherland and honor.

Compared with the era of the national defense forces, this kind of rapid training is quite loose, but it is still one of the most stringent training standards in the European continent. Comparatively speaking, the main force of the British is nothing more than this standard, while the later mobilizers of the French only have two weeks of training, and the requirements of the Italians are lower

So even these later recruits can be called elite infantry, but compared with the veterans who went through the war in Poland and Belgium, these recruits are a little younger. As long as they can survive the first few days of the war, then these soldiers can immediately play a strong fighting capacity and become the hundred battle warriors under the head of state.

In front of the desk in the recruiting office, an old man about 55 years old, with one hand on the edge of the table, and the other hand on a slender Mauser 1898 rifle.

"Old man, this is the recruitment office. Don't make trouble at your age..." an officer in charge of the recruitment said with tears and laughter: "as you can see, we only need unemployed men between 16 and 40 years old. You are at least 50. We really can't accept them..."

"What? Don't you want to eat alone? Old man, I don't have the ability to kill people. That's the ancestor of those kids who don't have the same hair! " The old man, with a hot temper, patted the table and yelled, "you were just born when I was fighting English with this old man!"

As he spoke, he shook his old Mauser rifle with pride and pride on his face, because it was well maintained and he was as angry as a bell when he spoke. It seems that even the simple draft shed will be lifted.

"Don't make a fuss, old man. I know you've fought a war, but what's the time? Can you catch up with the car or the tank?" A young man in line behind the old man also advised.

"Young man. My old man has no other skills. He has fought against the British and lived with the state subsidy. He can do nothing but kill people. " The old man sighed and said, "I just don't want to let my skills go to waste..."

"See what you say, you can have any extraordinary skills, give us a performance, we also open our eyes." The young officer in the conscription said with a smile.

The middle-aged officer, who had never opened his mouth, frowned and finally opened his mouth. Instead of speaking to the old man, he taught the young officer: "how to speak? Do you remember what the Fuehrer told us? Stand up and recite it to me! "

"Yes The young officer immediately put away his pride, stood at attention and began to recite the commandment from the head of state to the recruiting office: "since I was the head of Germany, I dare not despise the heroes of the world, dare not forget the trust of the people, dare not deceive the heroes of the whole country. When you go to recruit excellent soldiers and strong generals for the Empire, don't look down upon them, don't be arrogant, don't win the wishes of others, and don't laugh at the will of fools. "

"Good! With these words, the old man sold the bone to the Fuehrer! " The old man nodded and said with a smile, "let me show you my skills, or give me the form to join the army."

As he laughed, he stepped on the bolt of the rifle with his foot. With a click, the bolt was pulled open. There was no rust in the gun, just like a brand new one. There was no sign of the old man's action, but with a slight kick from the tip of his foot, the bolt was closed and the bullet was loaded into the barrel.

With his right hand, he picked up the rifle which had been eliminated for a long time, but was kept as new as before. The long gun drew a beautiful circle in the air and fell into the hands of the old man. The old man didn't aim at it. He put his gun forward and said, "bang!" The sound of a gun hit the flagpole of a building in the distance. The dust was flying and the flagpole was shaking, which attracted the applause of countless people in the long line behind. The old man didn't speak. With a sharp flick of his right hand from the position of the trigger, the second bullet was loaded. His strong hand was as steady as a rock, his face slightly deviated, and the gunshot started again“ Bang The bullet hit the same roof flagpole about 300 meters away, splashing a piece of ash again, shaking the flagpole“ Good More people clapped and cheered, which made the nearby people who heard the gunshot and stopped to watch craned their necks. Even the young officer, who was just in his arrogance, could not speak“ Good shot, old man The middle-aged officer was smiling and clapping his hands: "this is downtown. Don't open fire casually. It's estimated that the police will come soon."“ At the beginning, I was embarrassed to say that I was afraid that you would say I was bragging. On the poster behind you, with the mustache of the sniper rifle, he's my son The old man was not surprised, and he pointed to the poster posted on the wall by the recruitment office to build up momentum. His voice was full of pride and said out loud“ Is the old man the father of the sniper genius Rao, a middle-aged officer, was also surprised and asked, "the father of the man who killed 210 enemy soldiers?"“ I'm a genius The old man snorted and laughed with disdain: "I didn't teach it by hand? He's just my true story. " This is obviously bragging. The middle-aged officer didn't poke it out. He said with a smile, "if you don't dislike me, please follow me to have a detailed talk. The head of state once said that it's easy for a thousand troops to get one general, but it's a pity for the old man to go to the front line. If he can pass on this skill to the soldiers of the Empire, won't everyone be able to walk through it? " The officer went around his desk and immediately took the old man to the open car which was not far away. He said something while walking, which aroused the admiration of the people who lined up to join the army. Looking at the crowd behind him, the young officer blushed, coughed and went on with his work. However, because of the old man's "play", the scene of life-saving became more and more enthusiastic, and the team behind still couldn't see the end of the line. The crowd was very busy. Compared with the busy recruitment office, another recruitment office is also overcrowded. The recruitment office recruits skilled young people and old workers. Compared with the vast sailor families in England, Germany is indeed inferior in navigation. However, Germany has a strong industrial foundation and was once bound by the Treaty of Versailles, so there are a lot of workers who stay in the market without work. Some retired old skilled workers have asked to go back to their posts, teach new apprentices or help them. They have to contribute to the rise of the Empire. With the enthusiasm of these people, it seems that it is not difficult for the head of state to complete Germany's plan to double its industrial output value in 1938. Just when the crowd outside the registration point was boiling, just as the development of Germany was in full swing, a telegram flew to the telegram room of the presidential palace with wings, and finally was put on the desk of the head of state akado after the code translation. With a frown, akado picked up the telegram, which began with Italy. He took a look at it and threw it aside with a wry smile. Augustus picked up the telegram and looked at it. He was stunned by the foreboding of the head of state. It is clear from the document that 32 Italian divisions fought with 16 French divisions on an unprecedented scale at the border. The Italian troops lost to France in the end. After returning to the border, the French * team, under the pressure of logistics and the crisis situation in the capital, did not pursue the defeated Italian troops“ You're right! My head of state. " With the same wry smile, Augustus and acardo put the telegram document back on the table and asked, "according to the head of state, how should we deal with such a weak Italy?"“ What should be given is still to be given. " "I'm more worried about the problems in France than in Italy," he said helplessly
