The time span is 1940. The secrecy performance of the "Enigma" system has been greatly improved, which is also one thing that Ji Feng has forced. There are no major changes in the Air Force, because there are really no new aircraft models. But the Army and Navy are happy that the Army has better anti-tank weapons, and better tanks are being studied; The Navy's air defense firepower has been greatly strengthened, and the naval air force has completely abused the air force pilots during the naval air force exercises, and this has undoubtedly increased the confidence of the navy.

The day soon came on May 9, and the next day would be the day of the German blitzkrieg attack on France. All the submarines left the port quietly, including the Type 7B U-47, whose mission was to choke the British and French in the first place after the start of the war. The new British Prime Minister, the former Admiralty Chancellor, Qiu Fatzi, is struggling to crack the German code (that is, Enigma).

At 23:55, Germany submitted a declaration of war to Britain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and other countries. Although the Maginot Line was difficult to overcome, the infantry on the Maginot Line was still making a feint. The real main forces were in the direction of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg in the north, where there were the main panzer divisions, and even the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th crotch guard divisions went to the front. This declaration of war is not actually a declaration of war, but a sneak attack!

The "Black Storm" plan, which was rejected by Himmler, was realized in Ji Feng, who got 4,500 strong blacks from Africa and formed a 3,000-strong flag team with three assault brigades, called the "First Foreign 'Black Storm' Flag Team of the Crotch Guard", which was led by Max Strassel, the captain of the Crotch Guard (this name is Du Su). This unit was also sent to the front line on a mission through the Ardennes Forest.

They have 250 No. 3 tanks (mainly E, F), 50 No. 4 tanks (mainly new F1, F2), 22 command tanks and more than 100 Sd.Kfz.251 half-track armored vehicles. This is a fully mechanized force, the motorized infantry is mainly equipped with MP-40 submachine guns and Mauser Kar.98K short rifles, and each person has 1~2 iron fists. These blacks had a very good load capacity, and were even able to trot up with so much equipment. If these blacks had been fitted with armor plates, they might have become humanoid tanks.

The aisles in the Ardennes Forest are so narrow that only one tank can pass through Guò. It also convinced the French that the Germans would not pass through.

The "Black Storm" flag team, which was covering the left flank, entered Luxembourg, but left immediately because Luxembourg had surrendered. Surrender without a fight!

Rommel's 7th Light Panzer Division was tasked with taking the lead in the main forces crossing the Ardennes Forest, and the main armament of this Light Panzer Division was the Czech 35(t) and 38(t) and the rearward Nos. 1 and 2. Even the early models of the No. 3 were heavier equipment.

The main task of this division was to detect ambushes that could threaten the main forces when they did not arrive.

But what made Rommel very depressed was that the French did not even deploy troops in the Ardennes Forest! This left the war-loving Rommel speechless, but in the eyes of the tankmen, it was too good. Because their tanks are so light, they are just like the 1st Tank Division, a national treasure of Japan.

When Rommel was about to let his guard down, the members of a BMW R12 motorcycle at the front of the line put on a combat posture. After a flurry of gunfire, a company of Belgian troops fell in front, who did not even have a radio and were armed with weapons from the previous war.

And Rommel thought that there must be more terrible garrisons ahead, and as a result, it really appeared.

The front guard reported a strange enemy tank, and by the time Rommel confirmed that it was a B-1 heavy tank, three 35(t) had already been lost. Rommel hurriedly ordered his troops to retreat, and then sent an infantry platoon carrying a new anti-tank weapon, the Iron Fist, to reach the enemy tanks. As the enemy's attention was focused on the passage, they did not notice the iron fist that came from the side, and when the infantry advanced to within 60 meters, an iron fist caused a small hole in the tank, and all five members of the tank were killed by the hot metal jet, and the parts of the tank door and turret were also welded by the metal jet.

When Rommel continued to advance, he left the formation and ran to the side of the destroyed tank, where he pulled the hatch hard and found that it could not be opened. When he called in the sappers to forcibly break the hatch with an acetylene torch, he found that the people inside had already become char. Even though Rommel had participated in the First World War and experienced the tempering of blood and fire, he still returned all the food he had eaten in the morning.

This also strengthened the War Department's determination to continue to study the Iron Fist.

When Rommel's troops were about to leave the forest, they encountered ten Matilda infantry tanks belonging to the British Expeditionary Force, and Rommel had no good way for a while. But when he saw his men being torn apart by Matilda's shells and bullets, he broke out. He found a way in the depths of his memory - to set up his only 88mm anti-aircraft gun!

Soon, these "queens of the battlefield" who stood in their way were destroyed. But the price paid by the Germans was not small: 11 tanks of various types were destroyed, 5 were damaged, more than 200 soldiers were killed or wounded, and most of them could not even find their complete remains.

Purin discovered a big fish in the North Sea - the heavy aircraft carrier "Ark Royal". This is important for Britain now. But Prin soon spotted another big fish -- the French battleship Richelieu.

Pullin opened the torpedo tubes in the bow, which contained four electric torpedoes, which had already been programmed. It's also the latest tech in the Empire, and it has a range that's a cut of the length of time compared to other electric torpedoes.

Nos. 1 and 3 were aimed at the "Richelieu" in front, and Nos. 2 and 4 were aimed at the "Ark Royal" in the back. They are all aimed at the fuel tank and ammunition tank. These are all fatal parts.

As Purlin's firing order was given, four electric torpedoes flew out like arrows from a string, rushing towards the unsuspecting British and French warships.

For the British, it has been a long time since anyone dared to challenge their supremacy at sea. Now the most in the world is the St. George Navy Cross, but they don't know that soon the Black Eagle Cross will replace them as a new generation of sea lords.

With four loud bangs, both battleships slowed down and slowly stopped. But without waiting for the repair crew, because of the romantic design style of the "Richelieu", flames rushed into the ammunition depot, and the entire battleship exploded. Subsequently, the surviving sailors had to abandon their ships and leave, and the Rear Admiral and his battleship sank into the waves of the North Sea.

"Ark Royal" was a little luckier, because they were not fully loaded with ammunition. Their mission was simply to follow the French Navy. Unfortunately, the U-47 was found and seriously injured, and the British Navy did not want to abandon a heavy aircraft carrier, so it took a lot of effort to tow it back to the Portsmouth military port. A few days later, the Ark Royal sank outside Portsmouth Harbour due to heavy damage. The battleship was determined to have been sunk by Pulin, so Pulin directly became the captain of the first place on the sinking list. The sinking of two warships made him the youngest lieutenant in the navy, and he was awarded the Knight's Iron Cross with silver oak leaves.

For the British, their destroyers were going to be busy for a while. Because the submarine is clearly not going to escape.

An attentive hydrophone operator spotted Pullin's submarine, and all three destroyers rushed to Pullin's location.

"Pounds...... Pound...... The pound ...... "depth charges continued to explode, and then the bulkhead of the U-47 was constantly impacted, and it already looked overwhelming, and there were "squeak" screams.

Purin knew that if he couldn't get the British to give up attacking him, then he would have to give an account here.

So he ordered to fill the No. 1~3 torpedo tubes with some debris, and the No. 4 torpedo tubes with some diesel.

When the depth charge exploded again, the debris in front of it was fired along with the diesel. Then Purin ordered to dive down to 120 meters, silently.

Purin was lucky enough to escape the British destroyers and was able to return to Wilhelmshaven a few days later.

But for the nearly 3,000 sailors aboard the two sunken ships, their destination was the rough and unpredictable North Sea.

Fighters and bombers of the army aviation wiped out almost all the British and French aircraft on the airfields, and all the airfields in the east rose with thick black smoke. The planes in transit were also shot down, and in an instant, all the air supremacy on the entire French continent belonged to the Luftwaffe.

Fighting a war with air supremacy is very simple, not only tank crews, but also infantry do not have to worry about being strafed by enemy fighters.

Ji Feng was very glad that his Luftwaffe was able to grasp air supremacy after the war, and for modern warfare, the biggest bargaining chip in weighing the outcome of a war is air supremacy and sea supremacy.

Under the air force, there can be no major military action inland, and within the range of naval gunfire, any military action is a floating cloud - the powerful firepower of naval guns can disillusion a qiē and destroy an enemy.

Therefore, if you want to win the blitzkrieg, you must not only have air supremacy, but also sea supremacy!
