Chapter 761: Challenge

When he was at the airport, Jiang Haoran felt that this John 61 Williams was definitely a character, a colonel wanted to throw his face in front of the commander of a group army that commanded the three armies, ordinary people really didn't dare, not only did he throw off, but Alexander obviously had no way to take him, which was very abnormal.

Therefore, on the way back, Jiang Haoran specially asked Stilwell, who is this John 61 Williams sacred, who knows that this question really has a origin.

John 61 Williams's father was a marquis in England, and the marquis was a relatively high title in England, second only to the duke, similar to the vassal kings of China in the past. And Stilwell also told Jiang Haoran that John 61 Williams was not all based on his status, and he also had a good performance on the battlefield, in the famous Dunkirk retreat of the British army, his unit was responsible for the break, when he was only a battalion commander, he led a battalion of soldiers to fight with the Germans for a whole week, and a battalion of soldiers fought less than a hundred people, making great sacrifices for the retreat. Among the young officers of the British army, it is considered to be famous.

The British retreat from Dunkirk, Jiang Haoran certainly knew that at the beginning of World War II, the German army attacked Western Europe. At that time, Britain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg had 147 divisions and more than 3 million troops, which were comparable to the strength of Germany. However, the French were strategically rigid and conservative, pinning their hopes on the Maginot Line, which they considered impregnable, and declared no war on Germany. On the German-French border, there were only small-scale mutual fires, no major battles were fought, and the famous "strange war" in history appeared.

However, the Germans did not attack the Maginot Line, they attacked Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg first, and crossed the river from Sedan into France, bypassing the Maginot Line. The iron heel of the German fascists soon set foot in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg.

The Germans then marched straight to the English Channel, encircling nearly 400,000 Anglo-French troops in a narrow strip of northern France, leaving only the small port of Dunkirk, a small port of 10,000 inhabitants, as a sea retreat.

The situation is critical, and the port of Dunkirk is a highly vulnerable target to constant bomber and artillery fire. If 400,000 people retreated from this port, under the heavy fire of German artillery, the consequences would be unimaginable.

On the one hand, the British government organized the defense against the enemy, and on the other hand, used the navy to mobilize a large number of sailors and mobilize the people to rescue the army. In the face of the impending tragedy, people complained and quarreled. They lashed out at the incompetence and corruption of the upper echelons, but still threw themselves into the danger of evacuating the troops rather than death, and the strange "Armada" sailed to Dunkirk appeared.

This fleet consisted of ships requisitioned by the government, but more often than not, people who spontaneously went to pick up the troops. They did not register, they did not receive orders, braved the sound of artillery, the fire flashed, the sky was full of noise, anti-aircraft guns, machine guns, and in such a dangerous situation, in one week, they rescued 335,000 people, which is known as the Dunkirk retreat.

And the commander of this battle was the current commander-in-chief of the Indo-Burmese army, General Alexander, who also made him famous in this battle.

Jiang Haoran knows that no matter what the overall quality of the British Army is, the military quality of an officer who can serve as a broken officer in this kind of battle is definitely not much worse, which can also be seen from the arrogance of John 61 Williams, a pure gentleman often carries a kind of ignorance and fearlessness, but on his face, Jiang Haoran clearly saw the temperament of an iron-blooded soldier, tenacious and fearless, this temperament can only be reflected after the baptism of blood and rain on the battlefield. Therefore, Jiang Haoran instantly had a good impression of this John 61 Williams, even if he treated himself unreasonably at the moment, Jiang Haoran only smiled slightly, and calmly picked up the red book that John 61 Williams slapped on the table.

"John, what are you going to do? Get out, I order you to get out of here at once! Alexander seemed to be really angry, and got up in anger and screamed.

"Challenge book? Wait, General Alexander! Jiang Haoran opened the red notebook, read it softly, then raised his palm, signaled Alexander not to get angry, turned around and smiled at John 61 Williams: "Colonel Williams, it's just a small friction, don't make it so grand, right?" ”

"General Jiang, you handled it unfairly, obviously it was your people who were wrong, but you didn't do any punishment, we don't accept it, so we hope to recover our lost dignity through the means of soldiers!" John 61 Williams said frantically with a fist shake.

John 61 Williams is tall, at least a whole head taller than Jiang Haoran, waving his fist, looking from behind, it seems that he will smash on Jiang Haoran's head at any time, making them cold as frost They are not nervous, Jiang Haoran is fine, chuckled and said: "Okay, I can give you this opportunity, but I don't know what kind of challenge you want, you know that you didn't take advantage of fighting at the airport?" ”

"Compete with the thorns! We suffered a loss because they attacked suddenly, and this time I will definitely let your soldiers look for teeth all over the ground. John 61 Williams said fiercely.

"Stab?" Jiang Haoran didn't feel dumb and smiled, this big guy is not stupid, he has obviously suffered a loss in fighting skills just now, this time he hopes to find the field through his height and hand length, but Jiang Haoran is really not afraid of them at this point, the stabbing technique of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team is not blown.

In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, it was generally believed that the probability of winning the bayonet between the Chinese army and the Japanese army was five to one, that is to say, it took five Chinese soldiers to fight a Japanese army, although this statement is biased, but it is enough to see that the Japanese army's stabbing technology is powerful. But in the hands of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team, this situation is absolutely reversed, the members of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team are basically veterans of more than five years, and only a few players with unique strengths may only have about a year of time, like Huang Shulin, Lei Zhan, and Tie Erdan, they all belong to this kind of situation, and the stabbing skills may be worse, but those veterans who are more than five years old are definitely a top tough, not to mention dealing with the Japanese army, but against these British troops, Jiang Haoran really feels that there is not much of a problem.

Although the British army is generally taller than the Chinese soldiers, and the strength is enough, but fighting bayonets is also a technical job, flexibility is still an absolute factor, plus Jiang Haoran's troops, usually also pay attention to the training of stabbing techniques, ordinary soldiers and the Japanese army will never fall behind one-on-one, let alone these special forces.

After confirming with John 61 Williams again, Jiang Haoran turned his face to General Alexander, suggesting that they should be allowed to play and treat it as a military confrontation exercise.
