Chapter 187： Drop the chain

Why did the Spanish Civil War end in Franco's victory? It's very simple, because the leftists do not make peace at all, and Franco wants to fight wholeheartedly.

At the beginning, in order to be successful in the election, the organization of candidates at that time became the Left-wing People's Front. There were three factions in this organization.

The Spanish Socialist Party belongs to the Second International, and its backstage is the White Left Social Democrats of Western Europe. The Spanish Communist Party belongs to the Third International. The backstage is Moscow. The Spanish Workers' Party belongs to the Fourth International. I won't say anything about its origins with the Third International.

In short, these factions are not compatible.

Guo Fengxian was very unfortunate. After he went up, he was encountered by a soldier of the National Army belonging to the Fourth International. However, he was lucky. Later, he was rescued by his old acquaintance.

Madrid, the dark tide is surging, and at this time, the contradictions between each other have not yet reached the level of open fighting, because outside the city, the figure of the National Army has already appeared!

It was a special day on November 6, 1936.

On this day, the Madrid government moved to Valencia. On this day, Franco’s army's offensive on Madrid officially began!

The three-way army, from three directions, encircled Madrid.

The CV33 ultra-light tank was moving rumblingly, with them as the leader. Behind them were a large number of Italian legions and the National Army. They lined up in a scattered line and moved forward slowly.

If you don’t have the previous experience, this kind of offensive queue is quite common and gives people confidence. But now, the charging army always thinks of the tall and mighty German Panther 2 tank last time. Panther 2 tank, this small Italian tank is like a toy!

This made them feel very disturbed in their charge. Not to mention cluster grenades, even anti-tank guns can penetrate them. They have had such a painful experience on the front line of Badajoz.

Above, several Italian biplane fighters flew by.

"What's the matter? The Vulture Legion? According to the plan, they should have come up to join us long ago!" The front-line commander of the Italian army couldn't help complaining.

"Commander, commander." He had just finished complaining, and a radio operator ran up and reported to him: "The troops of the Condor Corps have added inferior fuel, and all the engines are damaged."

what?

Hearing this, the teacher couldn't believe that his ears were all damaged by adding inferior fuel?

In the rear command, Franco was also furious: "How is this possible? The best fuel we provide to the Condor Legion is absolutely impossible to damage their engines!"

Franco was depressed. Before the war, he repeatedly greeted Cyric, and even gave the best supplies, including food, fuel, etc., to the Condor Army first.

As a result, the current Vulture Legion actually said that there was a problem with their fuel?

In a hurry, Franco did not send anyone, and personally came to the resident of the Vulture Legion.

How can you drop the chain at this time? With the help of the Vulture Legion, this war can be ended faster, especially their tanks, which are the main force in the charge!

When Franco arrived, he saw only one tank, the engine compartment at the rear was opened, and each tank had a simple hanger.

A group of five tank soldiers are using lifting chains to lift out the engine inside.

Nima, in this posture, it is impossible to dispatch any more! Seeing all this, Franco was completely depressed.

"General Franco, why are you here?" At this time, a man covered with oil asked Franco.

Franco can see clearly now, this dirty "warrior" bears the star on his shoulder, and that is Cyric!

"How did you make yourself like this?" Franco asked Cyric.

"I didn't expect that this kind of problem actually occurred at this time." Cyric said: "Our tank unit must regain combat effectiveness as soon as possible. Therefore, I will also take care of it myself and follow the soldiers to repair it."

Repair together! Even Cyric has done it himself, what else can Franco say? And Cyric said that he was unwell. Originally thought Cyric was actively looking for faults, because they did not cooperate because of the mine. It seems that the tanks here really failed?

"The fuel we provide to you has always been the best!" Franco said.

"Yes, there is no problem with the fuel you provided." Cyric said: "However, some careless soldiers mixed gasoline and diesel."

The fuel used in the tank is diesel fuel, while the airplane uses clean gasoline. This is absolutely not to be mixed. However, when unloading the fuel, a few soldiers unloaded the gasoline into a large tank containing diesel, and dumped the diesel. Put gasoline in a big can.

As a result, after adding this fuel, the tank's engine experienced severe knocks, and some pistons and connecting rods were bent!

The engine must be disassembled!

Franco was speechless for a moment, really? Can you still make this mistake? However, judging from the current situation, the Vulture Legion must not be able to count on it!

Look at the planes in the distance. There are also technicians on the noses. It seems that there is a problem with the plane's engine.

"There are only three BF109 engines, and they are not started. Just simply clean the oil circuit." Cyric said: "Now, those three aircraft are the only ones we can dispatch. If they are known by Madrid, they must The bomber will take off and come and bomb us."

Tank troops can't be dispatched, and airplanes can't be dispatched, because the planes have been refueled with the wrong fuel, and only a few lucky ones are left, and these few need to protect the airport.

"Please handle this accident as quickly as possible." Franco said: "Our frontline is still waiting!"

"Yes I will do my best." Cyric said: "I will watch you."

Cyric had oil in both hands, so he could only watch Franco get into the car with his eyes. When Franco's people left, Cyric's face was full of smiles.

"Put the engine on!" Cyric shouted.

More than ten years ago, in the desert area, when Cyric first proposed the design of the Panther tank, Cyric emphasized one thing.

Quick change-up capability.

Engine, gearbox, the whole is a module, in the field conditions, you can quickly replace the engine! In later generations, this is a technology that must be mastered.

On the battlefield, once the engine malfunctions, the new engine can be replaced within a few minutes. As for the malfunctioning engine, just take it back to the rear factory for repair. In this way, as long as you store a certain amount of backup engines, you can quickly regain combat effectiveness.

And now, it is a training, how to quickly hoist the engine.
