Chapter 509: The Great Victory (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Boom!"

The roar of the engines of more than 400 tanks converged as if it were thundering. Countless British soldiers www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion watched in horror as the black tanks rushed towards them. Some timid people are even more scared to pee their pants.

"Oh God! The Germans had so many tanks, how could we withstand their attack? A British soldier shouted in horror that if it weren't for an officer behind him, he would have run away at once. Although this seems to be a coward's behavior, at this time, saving your own life is undoubtedly the most important thing!

"Anti-tank guns and? Quickly set up the anti-tank guns. A British officer shouted at the top of his voice.

Because the British army was preparing to launch an attack just now, they did not build defensive positions at all, let alone set up defensive weapons such as anti-tank guns. Now, in the face of the attack of German tanks, they suddenly got into a hurry.

Some British soldiers went to carry anti-tank guns, but more British soldiers kept retreating.

Obviously, it was too late to place anti-tank gun positions at this time. Especially since the Germans dispatched so many tanks, how many anti-tank guns do they need to be able to fight against them! I am afraid that before their anti-tank guns could fire a few shots, they were overwhelmed by the torrent of German tanks. There is no way to fight this battle.

"Boom!"

An anti-tank gun on the British position opened fire, but unfortunately, for reasons of too much tension, the shell fired did not hit the German tank.

"Quick, reload the shells."

"Boom!" A German tank opened fire, and a shell exploded next to the anti-tank gun, which did not destroy the anti-tank gun, but killed all the gunners who operated the anti-tank gun.

The tragic death of those gunners made the scalps of the other British soldiers tingle. They couldn't fight back anymore, so they ran away.

The British 22nd Infantry Division, 23rd Infantry Division and 24th Infantry Division can be described as a one-touch collapse. They were originally ready to attack, but under the attack of the German tank troops, they suffered heavy losses and were directly routed.

A large number of remnants of the army were defeated and fled to the rear. The German armored forces, with the cooperation of two infantry divisions, advanced all the way to the east.

"General, the Germans' tanks are too powerful, we can't resist them at all, please retreat immediately!" A major general suggested to Admiral Benson.

"Bastard, retreat? How can you retreat? We are here to reinforce General Haig, and if we retreat, what will General Haig do? When the time comes, the 1st Army will be eaten by the Germans. Admiral Benson roared angrily.

"General, we can't care about that much now, otherwise, even we ourselves will be eaten by the Germans, how can we rescue General Haig and them then!" said the major general.

Admiral Benson was stunned, and this sentence was undoubtedly very reasonable. If even they were annihilated by the Germans, then General Haig's 1st Army would naturally be dead.

"Order the follow-up troops, ready to resist the German offensive. Set up all the anti-tank guns and destroy the tanks of the Germans! Admiral Benson ordered.

"In addition, the infantry divisions that ordered the French to be reinforced at once, so as not to be in a hurry. If we were to be eaten by the Germans, they would also have no choice but to die! Admiral Benson said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, General."

Admiral Benson's order was given, and the Anglo-French forces attempted to build a defensive line against the German attack. For this, they even put together a large number of anti-tank guns.

However, it is a pity that this hastily constructed line of defense was patronized by the German air force before it was attacked by the German armored forces. Hundreds of fighters, covering hundreds of bombers, launched an intensive bombing of this line of defense of the British and French forces. A large number of anti-tank guns were destroyed by German air strikes, and a large number of gunners were also killed.

As soon as the German air raids ended, the armored forces went on the offensive. The Anglo-French anti-tank artillery units suffered heavy losses, although some German tanks were destroyed. However, there were not many of them, let alone to stop the German offensive.

This line of defense was easily torn apart by the German armored forces. This battle directly caused the will to fight of the British and French forces to collapse.

A large number of Anglo-French soldiers fled in disarray.

Seeing that the general situation was gone, Admiral Benson had no choice but to give the order to retreat, trying to disengage from contact with the Germans first, rearmament, and then launch a counterattack.

However, those retreating troops soon brought a bad piece of bad news to Admiral Benson.

"General, we have fallen into the encirclement of the Germans. To the east and north of us, there were German troops everywhere. Now, they are advancing on us, and we can't escape. The general reported.

"What? How could there be so many Germans? Isn't their main force attacking Rouen? How did it get here? Admiral Benson's face changed dramatically.

Obviously, he guessed that all this was a trap set by the Germans. The Germans launched an attack on Rouen only to lure them to the door. Now, as expected, they have fallen into the trap of the Germans. When they arrived, they were undoubtedly surrounded and annihilated by the Germans.

"Immediately organize troops to break out, if you want to survive, you must break through. Otherwise, as the oppression of the Germans gets closer and closer, we will all end up being eaten by them! Admiral Benson ordered.

It's just that Admiral Benson is too late to give such an order now. To get rid of them, the Germans sent a full twenty infantry divisions and two armored divisions, which were also heavily supported by aviation. Under such circumstances, if the British and French troops were allowed to escape, Admiral Crook and Lieutenant General Ludendorff would have committed suicide directly.

In the case of the steady advance of the German army, several breakthroughs by the Anglo-French forces ended in failure.

It was under such circumstances that the Anglo-French forces found that there was no German defense to the south.

As a result, a large number of Anglo-French soldiers withdrew to the south and tried to flee across the Seine. However, the bridge over the Seine had long been blown up by the German air force. The ships along the coast were also blown up quite a bit. If the Anglo-French army wanted to escape the encirclement, it had to swim across the Seine by itself.

Countless soldiers of the Anglo-French army jumped into the Seine one after another. However, with the exception of a very small number of people who were good at water, the rest were drowned alive inside.
