The Champs-Élysées is still so beautiful, although the Luftwaffe bombed Paris for a short time, but only against military targets, so the entire urban area of Paris was not baptized by too many bombs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the morning of Tuesday, May 21, no one cared about a clash on the border between Egypt and Libya in Africa, no one cared about what was going to happen to the Italian army, which was the first to attack but 62 people were captured and then reaped the rout, and no one cared about the sudden approval of the decision of the US Congress to increase military spending by $1.8 billion, on this day, the eyes of the world were focused on Paris, gathered on the Champs-Élysées.

At one end of the Champs-Élysées, on the Place de la Concorde, there was a phalanx of the most representative troops of the German army of more than one million troops that had been carefully selected, and the phalanx composed of the first battalion and the third battalion of the first regiment directly under Li Ling was at the forefront.

However, as the commander of the first regiment directly under him, Li Lingke did not prepare for the review with the troops, he was arranged to sit side by side with Heydrich on the temporary review viewing platform, and the viewing platform they were on was only 500 meters away from the triumphal arch, a landmark building in France!

As the gun salute sounded, the military band began to play the "March of Glory," which was most commonly used by the German army for review.

The Glory March's sonorous but cheerful rhythm was so beloved by the German military that it was a common repertoire in German military parades.

Li Ling standing by Heydrich's side was actually not an accident, Heydrich offered an invitation, and Li Ling gladly accepted.

But for others, this has to be regarded as a shock, who could imagine a little major, in such a military parade, standing shoulder to shoulder with the head of the Reich?

The hot eyes mixed with incomprehension and jealousy made the crowd on both sides of the Champs-Élysées all focus their eyes on Li Ling, which made Li Ling feel a little uncomfortable at first, but then he left it behind, this is just the beginning, he will have to face more such occasions in the future, he is destined to become the focus of ten thousand people, if this little gaze can't bear it, then he doesn't need to mix.

When the first phalanx composed of the first regiment directly under it appeared in people's field of vision, everyone finally turned their attention to the parade troops, no longer focusing on Li Ling.

In fact, it was not Li Ling's original intention to use Li Ling's troops as the first phalanx, and this was not in line with the military parade routine at all. According to reason, it should be the infantry phalanx that walks in the front, not a large number of tanks at all, and Li Ling meant the same, he wanted his troops to be at the back of the team or at the front of the armored team, but Heydrich successfully persuaded Li Ling with a reason.

"Do you want your troops to perform the Na.Cui salute?"

Well, this is a question that Li Ling can't avoid at all, and his troops have never intended to perform any rituals, his troops have been performing military salutes from beginning to end, and even if some of his troops are members of the Na Cui Party, he has ordered that no one should perform that kind of etiquette in public.

When Li Ling set this rule, it caused a lot of turmoil, but fortunately, his troops were hung under the Wehrmacht, and the Wehrmacht itself used military salute as the standard.

His own troops don't enforce that kind of etiquette, but other troops have to enforce it on the occasion of military parades, so there is no way, Li Ling only has two choices, either at the back or at the front.

Subsequently, Heydrich said that "this is a military parade held in Paris, and the troops that were the first to enter Paris should have been at the forefront", which made Li Ling unable to refute.

The first phalanx, consisting of 15 No. 4 tanks and 10 Lee-type tank destroyers, slowly passed through the viewing platform under the banner of three people at the front, and the crowd boiled!

All of them raised their right arms and stretched out their right arms one after another, and the soldiers who did not receive the mission and some of the French who were full of admiration for Germany gave Li Ling a glimpse of what real fanaticism was, although the Führer of Germany was no longer Hitler, but their fanaticism had never diminished in the slightest.

Everyone knew that the unit at the forefront was the first to reach Paris, and it was also the only 'task force' in the Wehrmacht composed of people of all nationalities, and it was not only the German commander who showed his body from the tank, especially the Li tank destroyer, except for the driver.

Such a force composed of various races, at the moment with the standard military salute in the direction of the viewing platform, those French who were not very optimistic about their future saw such a force, it seems to have a trace of expectation for their future, it turns out, Germany did not have the French government to exterminate all non-Germanic people, this army at the forefront is a typical example.

"It's awkward, although there is a kind of momentum there, but I always feel a little awkward. Don't you feel bad when you command them? ”

Heydrich tilted his head slightly and whispered to Li Ling beside him.

Li Ling knew what he was referring to, Heydrich, as the former head of the Gestapo, as the figure who proposed the 'Jewish Final Solution' in his previous life, the shadow of racial discrimination could not be easily eliminated, and the awkward word in Heydrich's mouth at this time was aimed at all the non-German and Chinese soldiers in his regiment, especially those black soldiers with unusually dazzling skin.

"But they gave us Paris, didn't they?"

Li Ling didn't say much, just a simple rhetorical question, but this rhetorical question unexpectedly calmed down Heydrich, who was a little fluttering because of the defeat of Paris.

Yes, they gave us Paris!

That's right, that's us!

If it weren't for Li Ling, who was standing beside him, I am afraid that he would not have the status he has at this time, and he would still be able to stand here and stand in the center of the viewing platform to inspect the troops.

When the tank units of the 1st Regiment rumbled past, everything that followed was carried out according to normal steps, with several infantry formations marching through the viewing platform in orderly steps, followed by the tank and armored vehicle formation, and then the logistics support formation.

After the parade, there is a parade and Heydrich's speech, but this is not what Li Ling is interested in, he has an idea now, he has been in Paris for several days, and he has not been to the most famous Louvre in Paris. Although, I really don't seem to understand those so-called high arts......
