♂!
The eight tank landing ships rushed to the beach. On each landing ship, twenty tanks and hundreds of soldiers came down on the beach. They gathered together on the beach to form a torrent and rushed to the shore.
Landing on the beach was originally the most threatening task. On the beach, at the most dangerous time, everyone has only a few seconds to survive.
But now, they are very relaxed.
Because there was no resistance at all on the beach, no army came out.
The bombing of this day has already washed the various shore defenses of Brest, and troops at all levels. The bombers in the sky and the shells of naval guns have turned any fortification here into hell. The same sight.
Moreover, the most important thing is that there was still no alert here a day ago. Many soldiers in the barracks were still lazily basking in the sun and discussing the situation of the war. They never thought that the war would suddenly come like this. Up.
Another reason is that Darren took away all the elites here, and the most combative troops were transferred to besiege the manor. As a result, the place was empty, and it was so empty that there was no way to resist the German cross-sea landing.
Just as the landing ship landed on the beach, the merchant ships, under the cover of their own battleships, slowly docked. The merchant ships moved very slowly. It took more than ten minutes to stop the ships. The troops filed out.
As the merchant ships docked and unloaded equipment and personnel, the Marine Corps First Division was already on the move. The tank unit was the lead, followed by the infantry. Their target was not Brest, but the suburbs of Brest. They want to get there quickly and reinforce their vanguard forces!
The entire Brest was in a panic, so much so that the news reached the manor only ten minutes later.
At this time, the sky was gradually darkening.
"After it's dark, we will launch another attack." Commander Bailey said unconvincedly. In the afternoon, his troops launched several attacks, but every time they were repelled, the tanks in his troops At this time, almost all of them remained on the attacking position, and some were still smoking.
His troops have suffered heavy losses, but he will never stop there. At this time, the reinforcements of another infantry division have also arrived. Now, it happens that they can attack together!
Night is a good time for attackers and a nightmare for defenders. Unless the Germans use their bullets to fire intensively at any cost and consume a lot of their ammunition, otherwise, their own offense will be successful!
Darlan was very satisfied with Pele's statement.
"Yes, we are going to launch an offensive overnight. Paris has sent many telegrams asking about our progress. It is not good for us to delay. Now, the German tank army in the north is moving along the coastline towards this side. We don’t have much time left to advance.” Darlan said: “Now, we have lost a lot, but I believe that the Germans are not having a good time there. Whoever can hold on to the end will win the victory.”
Darlan is very anxious. On this day, he has found the German opposite, with countless cards in his hand. Every time he attacked, he would be beaten back. Now, although he speaks very well, in fact , His heart is also restless, maybe, the German has a new hole card.
As soon as the voice fell, he heard the rapid footsteps of his adjutant. The adjutant ran in stride and said to him breathlessly: "General, it's not good."
This made Darlang frowned. As a soldier, even if the sky is falling, he can't be afraid. What's worth all the fuss about now, isn't it the German reinforcements?
Then, the adjutant’s words confirmed that his conjecture was completely correct: “The Germans have landed from Brest. At least several divisions have the strength. Now, the entire city has been controlled by the Germans. Their striker , Probably a fully staffed armored division, is coming to us."
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
A full armored division!
Now, with the ongoing battles, the assessment of Germany's combat effectiveness has already begun.
One after another **** battles wrote about the glory of Germany, and the fighting power of the German army was quite against the sky.
At present, the most optimistic estimate is that an armored division that wants to fight against the Germans needs at least five times the size of the German-style French or British armored divisions to have the hope of victory.
And the pessimistic estimate is that it is not enough, because the German tanks, firepower, maneuverability, and protection have surpassed the entire era. When Britain and France did not develop new tanks comparable to the Germans, how many armored divisions Not enough.
The quality is not enough to make up the quantity. This is already a false proposition. Can you imagine the British and French light tanks besieging the German Panthers? No matter how many they will be destroyed by Panther tanks, their own tanks, even at zero distance, cannot destroy the opponent's Panther tanks!
Only by thinking of various tricks, bombing tracks, throwing Molotov cocktails, this requires soldiers to pay great courage and sacrifice.
At least, the few infantry divisions on the scene are not enough to stuff the teeth between the German armored divisions. This is their consensus.
Can't beat it!
"Kacha!" At this moment, the dark sky suddenly gleamed, followed by thunder.
A heavy rain, just like this, came all over the world.
The headquarters was built under a piece of vines. Now, when it rained heavily, everyone was instantly drenched.
Damn, is France going to die?
No, this heavy rain is the last chance for ourselves!
"Pass the order, all the troops, attack together!" Regardless of the rain on his face, and refused the umbrella that the adjutant around him hurriedly gave him, Darren said: "Heavy rain will delay the actions of the German armored forces, and we, Before the arrival of the German armored forces, complete our mission. This battle is related to the fate of France!"
The big raindrops hit the bottom of the feet, splashing patches of water. Darlan picked up a mas-38 submachine gun from the table beside him, and said to the people present: "All return to their respective troops. , Charged with our own troops! This heavy rain is our only chance, France, will remember us, history, will remember us, just tonight, we used the most resolute action to save France! "
After thinking about it, he continued: "As long as we can keep this batch of gold safe, I will apply for one percent of this batch of gold as a reward and distribute it to our soldiers."
Darlang, is going to fight to the death!
