"How is this possible! There are hundreds of thousands of people there, how could the British have come up with such a crazy plan. No one can smuggle hundreds of thousands of people out of such a port right under our noses. Yodel shouted.

"Did I say they were going to sneak away? They can walk in front of us. At the suggestion of General Rundstedt, we stopped our armored forces on the perimeter and left the infantry divisions to attack. As you said earlier, it will take us half a month to reach the beach.

That is to say, if the enemy is willing to sacrifice a group of peripheral rearguard troops to desperately resist the attack of the infantry division, it is possible to drag on the battle for a month, and their large forces can use this time to withdraw to Britain completely.

By the time our infantry had wiped out the outer rearguard, I thought there would be nothing left but an empty beach and a ruined port. ”

"My air force can stop the enemy's retreat!"

The dead fat man didn't give up, and jumped up again to get some credit. But before Xu Jun could speak, Hitler had already glared him back to his seat with a fierce look.

Xu Jun smiled and said to Goering.

"As I told you, Marshal Goering, your air force is not capable of delivering a deadly attack on those enemies. What do you rely on to stop them from retreating?

We don't yet know if the weather conditions will allow your planes to strike while the enemy retreats. Even if the weather is good all the time, your plane will never be able to destroy all the transport ships, because the enemy's strong navy and air force will definitely provide cover for their retreat.

You may be able to destroy some of them, while a large number of other enemies will run away from your air force. Because the British will do whatever it takes to accomplish their plans, their resolve to fight will be as strong as we have never seen before. So, it will be impossible for you to stop the retreat of these forces by relying entirely on the Air Force.

If we allow these troops to escape, it will leave a hidden danger for the next phase of the Empire's war, and it may still be the seed of defeat. I don't know how much we'll have to pay to eliminate these escaped troops in the future, but it won't be as easy as it is now. The limited resources of the empire are absolutely not able to withstand such attrition. ”

At this time Keitel spoke: "General Reinhardt, what you say is also hypothetical, and there is now no evidence that the enemy is showing signs of retreat, and how many ships can the British have to carry these soldiers?" If the enemy really begins to retreat, will we be able to disrupt their operations simply by blowing up the port with aircraft? ”

Xu Jun smiled again, just about to answer the marshal's question. That's when Hitler intervened.

Reinhardt was right! They will indeed retreat from the sea. I have thought about it beforehand, and indeed, if I were the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, I would agree with this crazy idea. Because Britain could never afford to wipe out all its elite troops in one go. He will also work hard to promote the completion of this plan for the sake of his own premiership.

Reinhardt thought of something that we didn't expect, and he was a genius indeed. Once again, he saved the war.

If we let these troops go, we cannot guarantee whether they will also land in the rear of France. That would be a great obstacle to the next phase of our operations, because these troops were already familiar with our way of fighting, and they would be more effective in hindering the German attack with sufficient supplies from the rear.

If we don't do it quickly, then we will face a catastrophe like the one we did in 1918. So even if they show no signs of retreating now, we still have to guard against them from doing so, and we must now do our best to wipe out these forces in the Canal Zone as soon as possible.

And you said that the British don't have so many boats, and if I were the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, even if I concentrated all the things that could float in the country, I would have to rescue these troops, are you afraid that they will not be able to find boats? ”

Xu Jun listened to Hitler's words and couldn't help nodding secretly, although Hitler would have become rigid and arrogant in the later stages of World War II. But during the Battle of France, he did, as history says, carefully and keenly control the course of the war. His military literacy is already very high, and he can often understand strategic issues at a glance. However, due to his lack of experience in commanding large forces, he still relied on the opinions of the generals below at the beginning of World War II, which led to the influence of Rundstedt and Goering to make Dunkuck, his first and biggest strategic mistake.

It's time to make up for that mistake on your own.

After Hitler finished speaking, he turned to Xu Jun and said, "My dear Reinhardt, since you have long seen this problem that we have all neglected, then you must have a solution."

Xu Jun hurriedly replied: "Yes, I have been thinking about this issue since I was fighting in Arras. I do have a battle plan. If the war had been carried out strictly according to my plan, I believe that few British or French men would have escaped from that harbor, and we would have done so at a very small cost. You may also get unexpected gains. ”

"Then you don't hurry up and get your plan out." Hitler couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Xu Jun's words, and he urged Xu Jun to hurry up and come up with a plan that could destroy so many enemies at a very small cost.

Xu Jun stood there and took out a document from his briefcase. Then he spoke solemnly to Hitler.

"My Führer, before I announce my plans, I would like to make three requests."

"Huh? What are the requirements? You name it and listen to it. "Hitler is a little unhappy, do you still want to talk about conditions at this point?

Xu Jun also noticed that Hitler's face had changed, and he said unhurriedly.

"My Führer, these requests I am about to make are entirely based on the need to better complete this campaign, and there is no personal will in them."

Hitler's face softened, and he said a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, my dear Reinhardt, I have complete trust in you, don't have any other worries, if you can make this battle a perfect end, you can ask for anything."

"Yes. My Führer. ”

Xu Jun cleared his throat and then said aloud to Hitler.

"The first requirement is that, due to the large and detailed scale of this campaign and the fact that the situation of the battle may change rapidly with the passage of time, in order to better maintain the implementation of my plan, I request the Supreme Command to give me the supreme command of this campaign, so that I have the right to transfer, resettle, and command all the troops participating in this campaign. In addition, I will have the highest authority over the troops participating in this battle, and I can bypass the military tribunal and directly punish the officers and soldiers who are not in a good position in the battle. ”

Hitler looked down and thought for a moment, and immediately replied categorically: "Yes, these powers are necessary for the commander of a campaign. I can grant you these powers in the name of the Supreme Command of the Wehrmacht. What's next? ”

There was a commotion among the army officers below, and the Führer seemed to trust this Reinhardt unconditionally, and all of them agreed to delegate such a high level of power. This meant that Reinhardt had the power to use any of the three army groups during the campaign, which was equivalent to owning the elite units of the entire German Army, which was unique in the history of the Third Reich.

Xu Jun continued: "In my plan, I will need an elite and strong force to complete the operation in the most critical areas. So I would like to ask you, please allow me to select a few units from all the army units to form my immediate legions. It was up to me to personally direct their combat operations in that critical area. And allow me to keep this unit after the victory, so that I can continue to fight for the great cause of the Third Reich. ”

This time, Hitler didn't even think about it and replied directly: "Of course, as the deputy head of the Third Reich, you have a military position, and you should have had a direct army under your direct command a long time ago." Just like Goering had his Goering regiment, you can also have your own direct army. This is not an overstatement. Wait a minute, you can consult with the Army Command about the list of troops that are needed. ”

Hitler was still praising Xu Jun for his ability and came up with such a good way to control several elite units in the army under the direct leadership of the Nazi Party at once.

After listening to Xu Jun's request, those army officers did not object. Originally, they were thinking about how to win over the deputy führer, but now even if Xu Jun proposed to take one or two troops, they would agree. What's more, he just wants to have a direct legion, of course they won't object.

"Thank you, my Führer. My third request is. I'm going to set up an air wing under my legion, and I hope you can send me a wing from the air force. ”
