Chapter 219: The European Expeditionary Force (2)

It is said that the expeditionary force quietly descended on the El Alamein supply depot in the dark of night, and under the cover of night, they used their night vision devices to strike hard at the British troops defending here. The subsonic bullets fired by the two super-era *** did not make a sound, and the British army could not find the north! All the guns are equipped with ***, and the gunfire is not heard at all at a distance. A full 50,000 paratroopers is 50,000 special forces! How much damage could they inflict on the British positions in one night?

The intelligence they carry**, all kinds of timing** will be a nuisance for the British. In just three hours, the entire British position was already full of rumors. The paratroopers attacked the transport hubs and the barracks. Strike at the British troops in every possible way within the sphere of their activities.

Heinrich was a sergeant in the 1st Parachute Division, and he was a sniper in the combat team, nicknamed "Fast and Slow". The military qualities of this guy can simply be described as perverted, and it is not an exaggeration to call him the best sniper of the 1st Parachute Division. This strong guy has two *** on his back, one with a 10 mm caliber and one with a 20 mm caliber. His observer, Muller, carried more than enough ammo, and Muller's weapon was only an MP7***, but he used a modified one, which was replaced with a 400-round drum! The constant firepower is quite vigorous!

The fighting skills of the two of them can be called exemplary, and under their leadership, this combat group, known as the "Chiyou Thorn", is the best in both training and combat. Today is the first actual battle after they are equipped with new weapons, so everyone is very excited, and they all want to use the British to test the results of this month's growth. In just one month, each of them fired 10,000 rounds of ammunition, and even wore out more than a dozen pairs of socks on the way. A variety of new training programs have greatly enhanced combat skills, and everyone's murderous eyes have begun to take on charm! These elite German infantry are like a sword that has begun to take shape, and they are longing for blood!

Unlike traditional German infantry squads, the combat groups of the paratroopers did not have machine-gun-centric tactics. Each of their automatic rifles was a point of fire, and a team of 15 people worked closely together. With the support of aircraft, it is capable of almost all combat missions.

Heinrich and MΓΌller are on a tricky task at this time! Fifteen of them were attacking a British command. Originally, the task required them to simply harass and try to destroy the British army's means of communication. It would have been better to paralyze their command structure any further. However, their understanding was to completely annihilate the personnel of the command headquarters and knock out the "snakeheads" of the British defensive forces. Let them lose their way in this great desert, and they will never find their way home. They've come to see themselves as characters who can make the difference in battle!

Heinrich, the squad leader of this group, was a guy with an arrogant temperament, and his requirements for soldiers can be called harsh, but his demands on himself can only be described as "perverted". Each of his soldiers is a sharpshooter, and they are all masters of infiltration, sniping, assassination, and stealth! They had not stopped searching for their way forward since they landed, because the command post they were about to attack was heavily surrounded by British troops. The terrain is also a dangerous place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. So Heinrich, after carefully studying the map, decided to attack from outside the limit range of 3 kilometers. This was done to ensure security and to contain more enemy forces. Create opportunities for other battle groups to pull out their lines. But Heinrich's individual weapons are a bit inadequate. In any case, only two guns and one bazooka can barely reach such a long range, but the accuracy is guaranteed only by a 20 mm heavy sniper! So in order to ensure the effectiveness of the attack, he set his sights on a British artillery battalion!

The artillery battalion was deployed 10 kilometres south of El Alamein, and Heinrich and his party had little time to dump their shells on the command headquarters and seize the British vehicles. Then the artillery was pulled to a minimum distance of 5 km from the command headquarters to carry out the shelling. In this way, one task becomes three, first seize the vehicle, then drive the artillery position 10 kilometers away from the runway to seize the artillery, and then pull the cannon to a closer place and open a posture to bomb the command headquarters! Obviously, there are too many uncontrollable factors in this plan, and there are too many difficulties in implementing it. So it was vetoed by everyone. The result of their discussions together was to cooperate with the brother forces as much as possible. Enlist their help, and with their support, you may be able to achieve great results. Instead of just throwing the target designator in the command area and demarcating the position, waiting for the air force to attack. In this way, the command of the British army could not be paralyzed.

Before they landed, each combat group had already received their mission briefings. It's not so much to let them fish in troubled waters, but to train the team for nothing. Bai Qi used this Eighth Army, which was already on the verge of death, as his whetstone! To forge his fast strike force - the elite airborne troops through actual combat!

Therefore, the combat missions given to them are formulated on the principle of simulating the combat mode of special forces. Their equipment is very suitable for infiltration operations, the previous 40 tigers rose from the sand, like a whirlwind and clouds to penetrate El Alamein's defenses, and now the airborne troops are like mercury once again penetrating here.

In fact, the total number of British troops in this area is only more than 100,000! And they are also scattered in their respective defensive positions, and it is difficult for them to twist into a rope. This doomed the attacking side to calmly deploy its forces and break through them from a point of strength. But Rommel received an order no longer to break through, but to annihilate it completely! For Rommel, who was short of troops, it was easy to defeat them, but it was difficult to annihilate them completely!

The British are currently armed with a large number of technical weapons such as cannons and tanks. Each of their divisions had enough trucks, and the material warehouses stored a lot of oil, food, ammunition, and other combat materials. It is not easy to besiege them now, and the losses of the African Army are unprecedentedly heavy! Almost every plane was wounded in the previous battle with bayonets in the air! More than a dozen planes were shot down directly, a situation that has never occurred since the replacement of new aircraft. This also shows that the British have found a way to fight the new aircraft, and their new fighters have been upgraded to 40 mm guns, which shows that they have realized that only guns above 40 caliber can do enough damage to German aircraft. Not only Britain, but even the USSR received such information that their anti-aircraft guns of more than 40 caliber were clearly given priority in production, because the sky on the Eastern Front had become a training ground for the German army in the past month! As soon as the Soviet planes took to the air, there was no possibility of returning! Even the desperate collision tactics could not be used - they were shot down as early as the approach! More than a dozen Leopard 3 tanks were beaten to their stomachs, although the most fragile iron foot plate of the tank used advanced alloy steel materials and cross-era heat treatment technology. But in essence, it is impossible to break through the limitations of steel, and there will always be a tank with bad luck or stepping on the **, or being hit by a shell. Only the casualties are a surprise, usually such military operations have at least a thousand soldiers attrition, this time the battle is gratifying only about a hundred people! And most of them were lightly wounded, as for the number of people killed in battle, there were only 8! The experienced veteran didn't hurt a single one!

When the Afrika Army rested in shifts at night, the airborne troops also began to fight. The Afrika Army was given the order to rest. Leave nothing to chance, the newly equipped anti-infantry radar replaces the Sentinel, and the radar-controlled weapon station replaces the alert fire point. Almost all the Afrika soldiers fell asleep in the barracks at the right temperature!

The British positions did not stop fighting all night, and the airborne troops set many traps. It creates too much trouble for their daily activities in the future. In order to prevent them from escaping at sea, the main embarkable beaches are equipped with intelligence**. When a ship approaches, they are able to attack autonomously.

Tens of thousands of ** were secretly arranged in the shallow sea north of El Alamein, effectively preventing ships from docking freely. The British's escape from the sea was cut off!

At a military conference on German soil, Manstein advocated the development of a grand strategic plan for Africa. Continue to increase the number of troops in Africa, and strive to crucify the forces of Britain, the United States and France in this desert. He also knew about the African energy plan, the African base plan, and the naval base plan. His troop build-up was raised in response to these three ambitious plans. Now that a new round of weapons production has begun on the Eastern Front, the Soviets found that their anti-aircraft guns were seriously insufficient, and their aircraft were already far behind in technology. The vaunted T34 tanks also no longer had the advantages of the past, and the new tanks of the Germans could easily destroy them beyond the range of the artillery. What's even more terrifying is that the number of German tanks is obviously increasing day by day, and the rate of increase is alarming! In this case, it will be more difficult for the Soviet front-line troops to break through the German lines!

In the battle, they found that only a 150-mm cannon could inflict damage on the front armor of the new German tank, and the T34's 76-mm gun was simply tickling it! However, the small-caliber 50mm gun of the Leopard 3 can pierce the T34 at once! Not even the frontal armor of the IS2 tank could withstand it! Therefore, the Soviets had to design more powerful tank guns, otherwise they would be inferior to German tanks on the entire front.

As a result, the Soviets suspended their offensive, and even the harassment of small troops stopped. They intensified the construction of fortifications on the lines of Stalingrad, the Caucasus, Voronezh, Tula, Kaluga, Moscow, and waited for the arrival of winter. Perhaps they thought that the German army's early contraction of the defensive line and the change of offense to defense were to retract their fists and strike a more powerful blow! Now that the Germans are equipped with new tanks, this strategic assumption is possible, and the Soviet Union is convinced from top to bottom that the Germans are about to launch a stronger offensive. They intensified their defensive preparations to stage a great drama to defeat Napoleon in the winter warfare they were good at!

In view of the current stalemate on the Eastern Front, the activities of the rear partisans have been shrinking day by day. Germany's national policy began one important experiment after another, and the control of the High Command over Germany was unprecedentedly tight. Heydrich's National Security Agency, with the help of the white administrators, has set up the whole country, and the Byzantine political method of the Third Reich has gradually transformed into scientific and efficient control. Bai Qi had already consolidated most of Germany's forces and taken them into his own hands.

The time has come to start building in Africa, and things are ripe for development!

After daybreak, Rommel's general offensive will begin! The paratroopers had completed their tasks and had gathered at the rendezvous point to retreat. They will return to Tubruk to rest in vehicles provided by their fellow Afrika Korps, the Ranker Brigade and the Fogel Division. Where will begin their next battle tour!

Heinrich did not complete the task of destroying that command post in the end, not because he was incapable of doing it. Rather, it is because doing so will affect the next step of the occupation progress, after all, the "Engma" trap will start from here. If he had beaten him, wouldn't he have demolished Rommel's stage!

They successfully paralyzed most of the British supply depots, and the dense ** on both sides of the road brought great difficulties to the movement of the British army! There are many tricks that will not be discovered until after breakfast by the British - they immorally put laxatives on the British breakfast ingredients!

All sorts of means were used for the first time in real combat, and the paratroopers started the world's first precedent of a special operation while saving the lives of a large number of soldiers! The British army had not rested all night, and after dawn they were already sleepy and yawning! And it was time for Rommel to attack at this time!

The European Expeditionary Force cooperated with the paratrooper units to destroy. It was Rommel who gained the most。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
