After a rapid march, the 48th Division, stationed in Rennes, finally came, and unlike the current reserve division, the 48th Division was the main force on the front line.

Before the outbreak of the war, France had the most powerful army in all of Europe, with more than 100 infantry divisions and millions of troops.

And the 48th Division is one of them, they have always been stationed here, did not go to the front line, and are gearing up, waiting to go to the battlefield, and as a result, they were transferred.

The division commander, Bailey, walked in with a steady step and said, "General, please give an order, the 48th Division can complete any task!" ”

The firmness of the other party made Darlang very satisfied, the reserve division really can't do it, and it has to be a first-line standing division, if there were them just now, maybe they have already been beaten.

But now, he hesitated.

The bombardment of the Germans' naval artillery was very unusual, and if his hunch was not wrong, then perhaps the Germans would create a classic example of a cross-sea landing in the next step.

Years of experience have taught him how bad anything can be when you think about it, then, in fact, how bad it is!

And so it was, he thought of this most terrible circumstance, and, in his heart, he had gradually felt that this judgment of his might well be true.

So now, what should he do?

If the Germans were to land across the sea, then he should immediately send the current infantry division to the dock to prevent the Germans from landing.

As a naval background, he knows this very well.

But now, if the 48th Division is transferred to the dock, then who will do the battle here? Don't look at the fact that there are still a few thousand people left in the reserve division, but they are all wilted, and they know that Darlang believes that if he orders them to attack again, I am afraid that they will continue to resist the order on the battlefield and not carry out their orders.

Darlan's mind was constantly thinking and hesitating.

"General, I'm calling from Paris and asking how we're going." At this moment, the adjutant took a telegram and said to him.

For Paris, the gold is of primary concern to the city, because it is related to the future of France.

Thinking of this, Darlan suddenly came to his senses, and it was more important to counterattack the landing of the Germans than to capture it, because even if there were no Germans landing from here, his side would not be able to hold out for long.

Now, the most important thing is to get this batch of gold and move it away safely!

"Pass my order, the 48th Division, immediately plunge into the attack on the German Airborne Forces, and must completely annihilate every German!" He said to Pele: "Paris has asked me to temporarily take over the command of the 48th Division, and I hope that the 48th Division will not let Paris down." ”

After all, Darlang is an admiral, and now he is commanding an army unit, and only this current emergency can be regarded as an exception.

"Yes." With excitement on his face, Bailey saluted, and walked out.

Waiting for Bailey to go out, Darlan continued: "At the same time, tell the Parisian side that, in my judgment, the Germans may make a cross-sea landing in Brest. ”

There is no time, and if the German bombardment is to prepare for the landing, then maybe the Germans will land in an hour or two, but at this time there is no defense in Brest.

He's done his best.

Kill the Germans in the encirclement and transport the gold away at once!

The 48th Division, although it was an infantry division, was equipped with dozens of tanks, after all, the French Army was conservative and also believed that tanks were meant to support the infantry.

It's just that they didn't get an advanced tank, and they only had the Renault FT-17 on hand, an old light tank that had already appeared in World War I.

With this tank as the lead, in the rear, a large number of soldiers with rifles, in a straggler line, crossed their own positions and advanced towards the opposite side.

They were on the march, and this formation was full of murderous aura.

"Help me..."

By this time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and he had been tied to a tree all day, and Favre Joli was not dead.

He was very fatal, and among the bullets, only a stray bullet grazed him, and now he is still alive.

It's just that it's almost the same as a dead man, and the fright of this day has made him lose his soul, and he hasn't dripped, and now he can't speak at all, and his voice is like a mosquito.

However, he still has the instinct to survive, and many of the hostages next to him have died, he doesn't want to die, he wants to live!

Now, looking at the Renault tank driving up from the opposite side, he once again mustered up his courage and shouted to the opposite side, hoping that the French soldiers on the opposite side would save him.

This time, there should be hope, because your own tanks are coming up!

"Boom!" At this moment, a deafening sound of artillery, and with the roar of tank guns, an armor-piercing projectile, somewhere behind him, flew out and flew towards the opposite Renault FT-17 tank.

Just stick it out until the evening! When they heard the news, the whole army was excited, and every soldier of the special forces mustered up the courage to complete this mission beautifully!

Moreover, now that the opponent's tank is coming up, then, as soon as you want, you will have to knock out the opponent's tank! At this time, the Panther 2 tank, no longer hiding its strength, took the initiative to fire five hundred meters away, and accurately hit a Renault FT-17 tank on the opposite side.

"Boom!" With an explosion, there was a violent ammunition explosion of the Renault tank here, this small light tank, with a total weight of less than ten tons, was weakly armored, and could not withstand the bombardment of 50 mm tank guns.

This is just the beginning!

The Panther 2 tank, from its position, drove out, and from the vineyard covered by green leaves, it started out, and the high 50 mm barrel burst into flames.

Tank!

Who said that there was a group of airborne troops on the other side? When they saw the tanks coming from the opposite side, the will of the French soldiers on this side was rapidly crumbling.

On the entire battlefield, the German Panther tanks, fighting in the east and west, were invincible, and no artillery could penetrate it head-on, which brought heavy pressure to any army.

Originally, they only thought that this side was just a group of airborne troops, and in the last battle, they only thought that it was the light artillery carried by the other side.

"Buzz, buzz." The 500-horsepower diesel engine roared and drove the 20-ton Panther 2 tank, and it was extremely easy, and the 50-mm barrel once again burst into flames.

"Boom!"

Who said that the Airborne Forces cannot have tanks? Now, let's see how the Airborne Forces came to torture the infantry divisions!
