1137 pick-up
A Junkers Ju-52 transport plane slowly landed on the front-line airfield, the three propellers did not stop turning, and the plane taxied slowly on the runway.
Over the airfield, the 12 TA-152 fighters escorting the escort had no intention of landing, swept past the airfield, hovering nearby and refusing to leave.
Apparently sitting in the plane was a big man, who could use the latest fighter jets to escort the aircraft.
You must know that when the commander of the army group took the plane, it was nothing more than 12 ME-109 fighters, or F-190 fighters to escort the aircraft.
On both sides of the runway, there were already heavily armed guards, these SS soldiers with red armbands, all wearing black M35 steel helmets.
The guards wore black SS uniforms with spotless white shirts underneath. The weapons they hold are all submachine guns, and their automatic firepower is quite strong.
They are the most loyal guards, all of them are made up of Germanic peoples, and there are standards for height and appearance, and each one is carefully selected.
The white-gloved SS flag captains patrolled every corner of the airport with their piercing eyes, and the officers guarding the runway were arranging their uniforms.
The captains and captains, who are usually considered big shots, are also scattered at this time, guarding all directions of the airport.
The plane came to a slow halt on the runway, the hatch was pushed open from the inside, and two tall officers poked their heads out.
They could only curl up their bodies by the narrow plane door, and the two of them got out of the cabin one after the other, jumped off the plane and stood on both sides of the plane ramp.
The next moment, the secretary general of the Führer, Bowman, poked his head out, looked outside the plane, and then moved his slightly fat body and stepped off the plane.
The fourth person to get off the plane was the head of the Third Reich. With a cold face, the Führer stepped off the plane and walked to the side of the runway with his hands behind his back.
The wind blew through the airport, making the already hot weather a little more comfortable. However, the Führer still wore his meticulous military uniform, and the Iron Cross from the First World War hung on his chest.
"Victory! Hitler! With his chin held high and his arm raised, Field Marshal Bock, commander of Army Group D, stood upright at the edge of the runway, saluted and greeted loudly.
"Hey! Hitler! Behind him, the generals in Army Group D raised their arms and shouted with their chins high.
"Kyiv has already been taken?" Li Le stretched out his arm, which was regarded as a return gift. Then he walked over to Bock and asked.
"My Führer! The offensive is going very well, Kyiv has already been occupied by our troops, we have closed the Crimea and captured Melitopol from the south! Marshal Bock was with the Führer, and together he walked towards the car waiting in the distance.
The Führer inspected the front, which was a big deal for Army Group D. The reception had begun a week earlier, and quite a few people had come from the SS.
The original Adolf Hitler Guard Banner Corps was upgraded to the SS Panzer Division, and the current Führer Security Corps was all handed over to the new Führer Guard Flag Corps.
For the sake of the Führer's absolute security, not only did the Führer's Guard Flag take over the security of the airport, but Army Group D was not even notified of the date of the Führer's arrival.
That's why Bock seems a bit dusty: he had just returned from the front and hadn't even had time to change a single piece of clothing.
"Melitopol? Very good! You guys are doing a great job! When the Führer heard this, he nodded happily, and then asked: "Is there any difficulty?" ”
"The supply is very timely, and the level of mechanization of the troops is increasing...... The situation is much better now than it was a year ago. Bock replied.
Although there is an old saying that a crying child has milk, complaining in front of his own leader can sometimes be regarded as a sign of incompetence.
Bock knew that the Führer attached great importance to the logistical supply and equipment replenishment of the troops, so he chose a more secure way to make a request: "But no matter which front the army is, it needs more tanks, my Führer!" ”
He made a joke, Li Le nodded, and laughed, which was enough to give face to the marshal Boke.
Because Bock was a field marshal who died in World War II, he was relatively reliable in terms of loyalty.
Therefore, Li Le did not treat these generals who were willing to shed their blood for the empire, and took the joke: "It's useless for you all to ask me for tanks, you have to look for Speer!" ”
The photographers who followed behind the Führer, as well as Secretary General Bowman, laughed along, and the atmosphere became lively all of a sudden, and the solemn feeling when the Führer just got off the plane suddenly disappeared.
Recently, the Führer has been in a good mood, and he has officially established a relationship with Miss Eva, which can be regarded as a beautiful woman.
What made him even happier was that the German army on the front line was like a bamboo, the situation in Ukraine was gradually becoming clearer, and the victory of the Axis powers was close at hand!
It now seems unlikely that it would be difficult to end the Soviet-German war before the United States defeated Japan, and it was even possible that Germany would defeat the Soviet Union in 1942.
The Japanese side was obviously able to hold out until 1942 or even until 1943, and it was unlikely that the United States would be able to fight on two fronts against Germany and Japan at the same time.
Therefore, it is possible that Germany will withdraw from the war in 1942 and become a beneficiary of this war once and for all.
The person who planned all this victory in front of him was of course in a very good mood. Li Le said and laughed as he walked to the Mercedes-Benz car that had been prepared on the side of the airport runway, and waved his hand to the generals who were following him.
"Long live the Führer!" When these generals saw that the head of the state was getting into the car, they hurriedly raised their arms again and shouted slogans.
"Let's go to Kyiv!" Li Le, the traverser, got into his Mercedes-Benz car and instructed the driver sitting in front of him with a smile.
This car is a bulletproof car produced by Mercedes-Benz, and its performance is quite strong. If you really want to compare, its level of protection is about the same as that of Tank 2.
With such a car, the Führer's safety in Kiev was guaranteed. And more security is the guards who follow this car, those loaded guns.
At the foremost end of the outermost part were road-opening motorcycles, followed by several Mercedes-Benz cars full of soldiers.
Behind it was the Führer's car, and behind the Führer's car was the car of Marshal Bock, commander-in-chief of Army Group D.
The convoy was like a giant snake winding forward, driving mightily towards the distant city of Kiev.
