The rare victory cheered the Poles and accelerated the fortifications of the Anglo-French forces:

In addition to sending its first convoy from the port of Southampton to the port of Cherbourg in France as early as 7 September, Britain also arranged for the Royal Navy fleet to lay as many as 3,000 mines in the Strait of Dover in Kent in an attempt to wash away the shame of the seven Royal Air Force bombers shot down by the Germans a few days ago, as well as the heavily damaged armored ship "Admiral Scheer" and the light cruiser "Emden," and at the same time stepped up the distribution of a large number of leaflets over Hamburg, Bremen, the Ruhr area, and other German cities to shake the people's mind.

Four days earlier, France had dispatched the Fourth Army to carry out continuous military exercises in the area of the western German ramparts (Saarbrücken), which caused a stir in Germany for a while.89 hua.

In the face of constant crises at home and abroad, the commander of the 30th Division immediately sent an urgent telegram to Army General Johannes Blaskowitz, commander of the Eighth Army, requesting him to quickly contact the commander-in-chief of Army Group South and Army General Gerd von Rundstedt to send support from the 10th Army and the 14th Army.

Within a few hours on the train, Mia played a game of Othello with someone else, and guess who won in the end? It's Mia! She cleverly laid out and finally defeated the opponent with a four-three lore [90]! It's amazing! ”

In one of the offices of the Gestapo's Munich branch, Ancost, who was immersed in reading a large number of papers, yawned a long time, feeling that his girlfriend's words were long and boring, and lazily responded: "Yolanta, I really don't know if she won the chess game, can you give me an extra salary?" Also, I'd better stay away from that 'Colinis', his identity is not that simple. As a high-ranking member of the Gestapo, he knows very well that the true identity of this professor is not trivial, but it is inconvenient to disclose the truth.
