Chapter 215: Waiting in the Valley
"Quick, quick!" At this time, it was already dark night, on both sides of the bridge, lit up a torch, under the light of the torches, one by one tanks, rumbling from this side of the bridge, to the side of the bridge and then go down, the driver calmly pushed the operation panel, easy to drive through.

After the tank, the infantry fighting vehicles also drove up, one after another, and the entire convoy walked for two hours!
Finally crossed the bridge! Guderian looked at the sky of the black hole, and his heart was also infinitely emotional, there was nothing that could stop him! Ahead, it's all a flat river!
"Order the troops, work hard, and reach Zaragoza before dawn." Guderian said.
It is necessary to occupy Zaragoza, the most important transport hub, and only by firmly occupying Zaragoza can you continue to raid Barcelona!
The distance at which the tank units advance cannot exceed 300 kilometers, and within 300 kilometers there must be solid logistical supply points, and now, for the 1st Panzer Division, Zaragoza, is the most suitable new logistics base.
A rolling torrent of armor headed in the direction of Zaragoza.
La Muela Valley.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and on the position of the mountain peak, a soldier of the Republican Army, lying on the cold stone, looking at the valley below, at this time, their hearts were almost about to collapse.
What about the enemy? And what about that terrible tank army?
At the mouth of a cave on the side of the mountain, a chubby Soviet man, sip after sip of his vodka.
"General Kubela, you say, will the German tanks come up tonight?" Next to him, a Spanish general asked.
Hearing his question, General Kubela glanced at him arrogantly: "As a senior commander, be patient, Brandt, don't you have a little confidence?" Come, take a sip. ”
Hearing the answer of General Kubela in front of him, Brandt could only suppress his nervousness and took the flask handed by General Kubela.
As soon as he took a small sip, a spicy sensation ran down his throat, into his esophagus, into his stomach, and he felt like a fire was burning inside.
"Ahem, ahem." He coughed twice and said to General Kubela: "This wine is really unpleasant. ”
Unpleasant? In the Soviets, it was the favorite of all men.
General Kubela, of course, is a pseudonym, and all the Soviets who entered Spain have a pseudonym, and his real name is Kulik.
Kulik was also a prominent Soviet figure, having been born in 1890 into a Ukrainian peasant family. He established meritorious service in the defense of Tsaritsyn. He also commanded the artillery of Budyonny's 1st Cavalry Army, and was considered an old colleague of Stalin.
He came to Spain last month, and as a Spanish military adviser, he had just taken office. As an experienced commander, he immediately judged that the target of the Germans was Zaragoza!
If you want to talk about Barcelona, Kulik will never believe it, as a transportation hub, Zaragoza's geographical location is very important, Kulik immediately took a plane, flew to Zaragoza overnight, came to command the battle.
As a military adviser to the republican government, it is quite rare for Kulik to come to the front, but this guy is such a person.
For example, after the start of the Soviet-German war, Stalin sent him to the battlefield, and as a result, as soon as he entered the battlefield, Kulik disappeared.
Stalin attached great importance to this old colleague and hurriedly sent people to look for him, fearing that he would fall into a siege like other senior commanders and even be captured by the Germans.
When the search party finally found Kulik in the chaos of the battlefield, the representative of the Supreme High Command was performing the duties of a company commander, busy intercepting and organizing the retreating stragglers.
As a warrior, he is brave enough, but unfortunately, he lacks the strategic vision of the whole picture, especially the ability to master troops and adapt in complex situations.
Kulik was brave, and when he came to Zaragoza, he single-handedly organized an army, gathered all the soldiers in the vicinity, and at the same time, he personally led the team to this place.
The current Kulik looks like he is at ease, but unfortunately, these Spanish generals around him are not as calm as him.
Suddenly, Brandt quickly twisted his flask and said to the others: "Hurry up, wake up the sleepy, the enemy has arrived!" ”
Arrived? Looking at the dark valley below, nothing?
Kulik's face was full of excitement, as an experienced veteran, as soon as he leaned against the stone, he heard the sound of the ground shaking, it was definitely a force moving over!
On both sides of the valley, boulders are prepared, as long as the other party enters the valley, release the boulders on both sides to seal the valley, and when the time comes, see what the other party does!
No matter what kind of tank it is, it is impossible to be afraid to come up along a steep hill! As long as you surround each other, even if you just throw grenades, you can kill all these Germans!
Kulik was very excited.
The whining west wind was blowing in the valley, and in the sound of the wind, an army was galloping towards here.
It was a troop of cavalrymen, with spears on their backs and cavalry swords at their waists, and their bodies were lying low on the back of their horses, and their bodies were constantly jolting with the horses.
Cavalry! War is the catalyst of science and technology, when the end of World War II, the cavalry, an ancient branch of the army, has withdrawn from the stage of war, but now, before World War II, cavalry is still an indispensable branch of the army of various countries, and even the most popular service!
General Mora's men were also equipped with cavalry legions of thousands of men.
With the furious surge of the German tank forces, the infantry sent by General Mora could not keep up with the pace of the German army at all! And now, seeing that the liberation of Zaragoza was imminent, General Mora was anxious, so he sent his most elite cavalry regiment to try to keep up with the German tank forces.
After they set out, they took only one break and continued to travel under the stars, even risking the death of their horses, but there was no trace of the German tank units along the way.
Could it be that they have already arrived in Zaragoza? Thinking of this, the commander of the cavalry regiment, Trick, was inexplicably lost in his heart, he really wanted to be the first to rush into Zaragoza and hack those government soldiers to death under his cavalry knife! He was looking forward to the bloody scene.
On both sides, there are already high mountain peaks.
"Boom, boom." At this moment, a strange voice sounded behind him.
