"This group of cold-blooded German horsemen and soldiers with all kinds of weapons and equipment passed through the city of Paris, and the Parisians would not be surprised if they saw any more marching troops. Because their steps were uniform, their slogans were sonorous and powerful, and their eyes were full of murderous intent, but in reality they were only peasant children from all over Germany or Austria, who had not been ordered by their Führer to accomplish their task. ”

That's how an American journalist described what he saw.

Because of the propaganda of the French government, some Parisians imagined the German soldiers as invincible, cold-blooded and ruthless legions, and as stone-like terrifying killers, who rode in mechanized chariots and were seen as cold-blooded and ruthless killing machines, and in their eyes the only purpose of the German soldiers and weapons was to kill.

And now the Parisians finally saw the enemies they feared, the murderers of their government and the reports, and when they trembled and stuck their heads out of the windows, or dared to take to the streets, they suddenly discovered that these murderous demons did not seem to be as terrible as the newspapers portrayed.

The horsemen, on tall horses, did not seem to glance at them, let alone slaughter them, as if their target was the French army and not the French people.

These Parisians saw German artillery units on horses, field guns, and cannons of various calibers walking through Paris, but they did not stop for a second.

Before they could be surprised by the cavalry and infantry they had just seen, hordes of German trucks followed, yes, these were the artillery units of the German troops, and behind these trucks were all 150 mm cannons produced by Krupp.

The trucks roared one after another, their speed was soothing and steady, and the artillery cannon was covered with dust, but it still couldn't stop the glossy interior, and the 150-caliber cannon was as beautiful and elegant as a work of art designed by a German designer.

Some French people believe in the image of malnutrition of German soldiers portrayed by the French government and newspapers and other propaganda agencies, which say that the Germans are hungry because of the harsh wartime economy, they do not have enough food, because of the slogan "cannons, not butter", hungry faces and thin muscles, become poor victims of Reinhardt's war, so they will burn and loot, rush to see food, and even slaughter civilians in order to get food.

But when the Frenchmen saw the healthy countenance on the faces of the Germans, they immediately removed a lot of hostility, because seeing them really did not associate them with the devil.

"These German soldiers don't look like they can't eat." A young French girl leaned on the window and stared at the German soldiers, and said, "If it weren't for the fact that they were Germans, I would have wanted to marry some of them." ”

It must be said that although these German soldiers appeared on the streets of Paris as enemies, because of their brisk and neat steps, they really had some manly charm, and it was normal for young girls to like them. They walked past the French and looked at the French inhabitants curiously.

"Look at these handsome soldiers! They're all pretty charismatic guys! A French girl sighed.

Then the person next to her reminded her in a low voice, "Hey! Calm down, they are all enemies, you know, many handsome young guys in our country have died at their hands! ”

Immediately followed by the mechanized artillery units into the city, it was Germany's ace of war, the tank troops, these tank units played a huge role in the blitzkrieg, they had achieved quick and fruitful results in the blitzkrieg against Poland, and then they were the main force of the German army's ground combat, so these tank units were called the German army's war trump cards.

One after another Leopard tanks drove through the Arc de Triomphe, the German Panzers sang their battle songs, the song echoed over the Arc de Triomphe, and the German soldiers thought that the second time they passed through the Arc de Triomphe it would be the time for them to occupy France, they were in a very good mood, dreaming that in the future the German flag would be planted in every corner of the world.

Then the Germans came with some people who were very poorly dressed, and their weapons and equipment were also varied and disorganized, in fact, they were the front-line troops who had just finished the battle, and they were really helpless to dress up like this, they did not have time to tidy up, because they were about to go south to pursue the French troops.

The German army originally wanted to hold a grand entrance ceremony in Paris, but the German Propaganda Department ignored the style of Führer Reinhardt, and it can be said that this Führer was the kind of person who did not stick to the moment, and he did not like to pretend to show the project at all, but preferred to run a thing efficiently.

As for other things, such as this entrance ceremony, in Reinhardt's eyes, if it was not, it would be the best thing.

Therefore, this grand entrance ceremony did not take place, but instead some front-line combat troops directly entered Paris, and then passed through the city and continued south to attack France, pursuing other French troops.

Therefore, some of the German troops who came in earlier looked quite clean, but the troops behind them couldn't manage so much, and some of the combat troops who had just finished the battle were all dusty, and they looked like a group of people called Hanako who were extremely down.

However, what is even more unexpected is still behind, and behind the infantry combat units are the Panzergrenadiers, who have also just come down from the front line to equip the pursuit of the French troops, some of them even have blood stains on their bodies, and many of them entered Paris with wounds, they all know that they cannot stop for a moment, they will keep chasing France, crushing the French army, and then occupying the whole territory of France.

These people were carrying rifles, and some of the wounded people had gauze wrapped around their heads, and they looked very down, although they were not demons, but it was clear from their eyes that they were not friendly.

Just as the German army was constantly passing through Paris, Guderian, who had arrived from the front line by special plane at the headquarters of Army Group A, made a special visit to Rundstead.

Next, they will be ordered by Führer Reinhardt to organize a final offensive against the French army, with Guderian's troops as the spearhead.
