Chapter 211: A Powerful Paratrooper Unit (2)
600 "Albatrosses" flew to the heavily fortified port city of Tubruk loaded with the recovered grain! This is where the center of the Afrika Korps will come next.
Rommel was calculating this attack, and received the news that 230 British planes were all wiped out! He wasn't surprised at all, he knew it was inevitable. The British had 55 aircraft descended on the temporary field airfield under the escort of the "Star of Africa". They jumped off the plane, pulled out the **** they were wearing and threw them in the sand, this time they were no longer gentlemen! They learned to be rude!
But what they got was not an insult from the Germans, although they had just destroyed a lot of German equipment and killed and wounded a lot of German soldiers. What they got was applause! It's a tribute to the warriors! Under the influence of Rommel, the German army of the Afrika Korps has formed a knightly military personality, and the characteristics of the military commander have been deeply engraved in the military soul of the Afrika Korps! They form unique traits! Among them, for the brave warriors, even the enemy will be respected by them! The quest for human excellence has transcended war!
Mathery and Frenzen called Rommel like errant children to deeply examine their own failures. But they were all persuaded by Rommel, who told them that it was their own fault, not that of others.
He visited the British pilots who had arrived at the prisoner of war camp and brought them cigarettes and cold drinks. Afterwards, he wrote in his diary: "I would like to thank this group of brave lads for awakening my shallowness and ignorance with their heroic and fearless fighting, and this small setback prevented me from making even greater mistakes in the future." My thinking has been perfected through successes and failures. ”
Rommel immediately arranged for some of his 600 "Albatrosses" to go to Tubruk to transport parts for the tank cluster to be replaced. At the moment they were flying over El Alamein, and it would take at least half an hour to get there. With a maximum speed of 700 km/h, a high-speed helicopter is a new type of aircraft with high efficiency! With Bai Qi's repeated efforts, it has been installed to the Afrika Korps that needs it the most. Once again, these planes boosted the maneuverability of the German army, and 100,000 tigers became enough for 300,000!
The damaged leopard had already gone through the emergency rescue of the battlefield repair vehicle, and the chariot that really could not be repaired was left to Li Ming's engineer apprentices.
Because the "Albatross" had to transport grain to Tubruk, the distance was at least 800 kilometers. A transport high-speed helicopter with a top speed of only 550 kilometers per hour can only complete one round trip in half a day. This meant that the paratroopers had to hold on to Alexandria for at least six hours, a task that was not a problem for the elite infantry who were adept at street fighting. More than 50,000 people completely controlled Alexander, who was not very big! Anti-tank weapons 40 fire, 60 fire was concentrated in the direction facing the British troops, ready to meet the enemy.
The tank group, which had just passed a test of blood and fire, was rumbling southeast, and the British in Cairo had already begun a great escape with their children and daughters! They fled the city on the verge of becoming a frontline in a variety of ways, some by overland to the British-occupied Middle East, others by ship to India and Australia! The chaos quickly expanded at the beginning and eventually became out of control, and the gentlemen are now refugees in a mess!
The speed of the tank was not very high, only about 60 kilometers per hour. What's more, there are British troops blocking the way, and there are battles to be fought. The air force was defending the occupied Alexandria, and the paratroopers were counting the spoils of war and repairing the British ships that had not escaped in the harbor for their own use. Only the 2nd and 3rd Parachute Divisions were ordered to assemble, and more than 20,000 troops were ready to board the 400 "Albatrosses" that did not go to transport food to directly raid Cairo!
Although the formation of attack aircraft of Frenzen was a little tired, they flew to Cairo again in good spirits after drinking strong coffee! Mathery also escorted the paratroopers with the planes transporting them. The sheer number of planes in broad daylight almost obscures out the sun!
The final blow to Cairo, the last stronghold of the British army, is about to begin! The paratroopers began to assault!
Although paratroopers have played an important role in many battles, the British are still not very effective in defending against them. Actually, it's not that they don't want to, but they can't. The paratroopers had only been practicing for a month according to the training syllabus compiled by Bai Qi, but they had already had the effect of being reborn. Because Bai Qi was lucky not to die and became an immortal, he escaped into the door of cultivation. He was determined to save mankind, and thousands of years of experience in leading soldiers were classified. A complete set of theories was formed. Among them, the knowledge of training, leading troops, organizing wars, and so on has long surpassed that of mankind by more than a little bit. Various theories of human beings have also been passed down, but due to communication problems, language limitations, and many human inadvertent changes. Correct self-appearance is often misunderstood, and some details are naturally lost in the river of history!
Perhaps only through thousands of years of experience can we know the preciousness of human life and appreciate the hard-won global environment. Relative to this, we also know how to cherish our unique and only home - the earth! In terms of Bai Qi's ideological realm and the science and technology he mastered, he didn't have to work so hard, and it was not difficult to directly destroy the human beings on the earth and start over again according to the perfect idea! However, the irreversibility of the development of human history, and the various ideas born in the development of society are all caused by specific conditions, and the cramming of hard plugs cannot be better beneficial to human development, but is counterproductive. After Bai Qi and they did not die after that great tribulation, they thought that God had given them a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it was really a shame to God if they didn't make good use of it!
The development of mankind has entered a period of new scientific and technological civilization, and various advanced technologies represented by Germany have emerged one after another, which are gradually changing the lives of human beings. After this peak of scientific and technological development, human life will undergo tremendous changes. Ordinary people can enjoy the life that the ancient emperors could not bear, human desires have been further expanded, and the traditional moral binding force has been further weakened! Virtues such as harmony, nature, gratitude, and temperance are gradually becoming less important! Struggle, hard work, tactfulness, communication, and other qualities that promote personal success are becoming the mainstream! Money, the satanic devil, is about to begin devouring countless noble souls of mankind!
While lamenting the immortality of the human heart, Bai Qi is always worried about the mother who is wantonly ruined by human beings and takes what he wants! This only home of mankind cannot be destroyed by ignorant human beings, now is the time to break the old pattern and establish a new order! Germany, the birthplace of the new scientific and technological civilization, should play a greater role and formulate an insurmountable rule and regulations for the healthy development of mankind!
Since ancient China, Oriental thought has been the cornerstone of his main philosophical theories. He was born in an era where a hundred schools of thought were contending and various philosophical ideas were emerging. It can be said that it is the most glorious period of Chinese cultural development. The idea of governing the country emerged one after another, and in the end, it was the Legalists who established a strong political power. Unified China! However, in the monarchy state power, the weakness of Legalism is that it is difficult to grasp the human factor, and a person who dares to trample on the law will encounter an incompetent monarch who cannot uphold the law. Without a flexible law enforcement team, when social stability cannot be maintained, it will collapse in an anthill! The Great Qin Empire will not return because of this!
For thousands of years, he has been accustomed to ups and downs, and he has been thinking about what kind of system can lead mankind to healthy and stable development. It's a pity that he never found the answer! At present, under the premise of the state system, human beings always attack each other, and often fight for the sake of national interests, and cannot develop harmoniously!
After the development of Western civilization, their plundering of the wealth of the East has not stopped for a moment! Although it is said that if you fall behind, you will be beaten, but do you deserve to be beaten? The Chinese civilization has been inherited for thousands of years and is the only ancient civilization in the world that has never been interrupted! There was a lot of advanced technology that was mastered, but it was never used to loot and kill! It is not uncommon for all dynasties and generations to be strange in China, and the four major inventions, ceramics, tea, and silk have changed the world but have never collected a penny of patent fees! Technology that benefits all people has nurtured generations of people, and has never turned advanced technology into combat effectiveness and used to actively attack any other nation! On the contrary, he used his vast and profound culture to assimilate one alien race after another!
Now this nation, once invincible, no one can resist the excellent culture that has been infected and assimilated by it, and is facing unprecedented challenges! Modern industry spews black smoke and spins huge steel wheels to crush civilizations that have been passed down for thousands of years!
Once upon a time, the young republic was besieged and intercepted by the Western powers! They have gathered the strength of 28 countries to strangle in their infancy the new civilization that has just been born and is destined to lead the world in the future! On someone else's land, the young nation broke their blockade with the blood of hundreds of thousands of soldiers! So that they will never again dare to despise and bully our country!
Our country is growing, our civilization is resurrecting!
The civilization that once led the world for thousands of years is destined to be reborn, reborn, and finally return to the position of world leader!
But it takes time, and it takes growing pains!
In that war, the young soldiers of the republic deeply shocked the enemy with their fearless and powerful momentum! When they are ambushed, they can lie in the snow for days without moving. There are a lot of fighters who can't get up anymore because of this! At the moment of attack, in the face of the enemy's *** wall of fire, the warrior who charges forward can pave a way to charge with his body! Crush the blazing flames under your body and sacrifice yourself for victory! When crossing the glacier, the weather was dozens of degrees below zero, and the cotton clothes and pants quickly froze into ice lumps. It's hard to take a step, so just take off your naked body and charge with a gun! It's like "logs are moving"! When you take out the enemy bunker, resist the blaster with your shoulder and prevent the enemy from pushing it out, and dare to die together! Although the equipment of this army is very backward, their tactics, fighting spirit, and fighting quality are very strong! Have the spirit of daring to sacrifice for victory! Their nimble tactics tend to exploit their strengths and avoid their weaknesses to defeat the enemy. Instead of blind sacrifice, it is a real war with brains. So they are invincible!
Bai Qi used their flexible tactics, advanced weapons, and about half of their fighting spirit to create the elite of 50,000 paratroopers they now have!
Originally, this army was the most combat-ready division composed of the elite infantry of the German army. Under the guidance of Bai Qi's advanced tactical training and advanced weapons, they are the troops that will win every battle.
How could the backward military doctrine of the British be the opponent of the German army? Although they have the advantage of troops, they also have many effective technical weapons. But under the opponent's flexible tactics, he still lost again and again. Fighting a war is not just about firepower, maneuver, lethality and other hard data. What's more important is to have a flexible tactic. The German paratroopers were clever lads who always found their advantage in every new battlefield and used them effectively. Even if there are no conditions, it is necessary to create conditions as much as possible to achieve the goal, such as the fake plane tactics during the raid on Alexandria, which is the result of their collective efforts! Little Afu has become the cutest person in the hearts of the paratrooper soldiers!
