"General, we have managed to tear open the German line. However, in the end, they were kicked out. The Germans even used tanks for this! An officer reported to Admiral Haig.

"Damn!" Admiral Haig couldn't help but curse. He was keenly aware that this seemed to be their only chance to break through the German defence. If you miss this opportunity, it will be even more difficult to do so.

I looked at my watch, and it was already two o'clock in the morning on August 22, and there were still three hours to go, and it was about to dawn. When the time comes, the Germans will definitely launch a frenzied fire attack on the British army. Admiral Haig did not think that the British could hold out under the heavy shelling of the German navy and the heavy strafing and bombing of German aircraft. When the time comes, what awaits the troops will most likely be a major rout.

"No, we can't just throw in the towel. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to defeat the Germans. Admiral Haig admonished himself secretly. If they fail to achieve their intended goals this time, then what awaits them will be an attack by the elite units of the German army. When the time comes, will they still be able to resist it? Admiral Haig wasn't quite convinced anyway. Even so, Margate assembled two British army groups, totaling 400,000 men. But he still didn't have any bottom in his heart.

"Order the 4th Infantry Division, into battle! This time, we must tear open the German defenses! Admiral Haig gritted his teeth and gave the order. In the absence of any other option, he could only draw more reserves into the battle.

Coincidentally, the British 2nd Army and the 3rd Army also felt the urgency of time. In order to tear apart the German defenses, they made a desperate bet and kept throwing more reserves into the attack. If it weren't for the fact that the Germans' defensive lines were too narrow to accommodate more troops to attack, they might have committed more troops. Of course, in this situation, the more troops are put in, and the formation tends to be very dense when attacking. In that case, the troops would only suffer more heavy losses under the intensive fire of the Germans.

Fierce battles were fought on the beaches on the west coast of the Strait of Dover, where hundreds of thousands of British and German elite troops fought the fiercest battles. On the beach, a thick layer of corpses had piled up, and the blood had soaked the sand. The smell of blood in the air is even stronger to make people want to be sick.

But even so, no one cares. What they care about is how to defeat the enemy, to be able to destroy the enemy. This is a matter of the fate of countries on both sides. Therefore, these brave soldiers can only put life and death aside and devote themselves to killing. You can't stop until you kill all the enemies or kill yourself.

"Kill!"

A group of British soldiers rushed to the German lines, and a fierce white-knuckle battle began. The soldiers stabbed their bayonets into the enemy's body. The feeling of obstruction of the bayonet piercing the human body, combined with the terrible howl from the mouth of the enemy, made people feel a creepy feeling in their hearts. Overall, though, not many people care about this on the battlefield. They have to be ruthless. Otherwise, they may be the ones who lose their lives.

Under the tragic struggle between the two sides, time passed little by little. The German line of defense, albeit several times breached. However, after the German reserves were added, they were able to drive the British out of their positions each time, and firmly control the positions in their own hands.

The artillery on both sides has also been roaring. The Germans suffered considerable losses under heavy shelling by British artillery. But at the same time, the shells fired by the German warships from the sea also caused heavy losses to the British artillery.

"How's the situation at the front?" Admiral Hamilton was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"General, we broke through the German lines several times. However, in the end, they were all beaten back by the Germans. The troops involved in the offensive at the front suffered very large losses. Several army groups have already sent more reserves to participate in the offensive. However, it still did not succeed. The Germans remained firmly in control of their lines. The troops on the front line, are making their last effort! The adjutant reported.

"Damn! Having lost so many troops, was it still impossible to tear through the German lines? How can this battle continue! Admiral Hamilton couldn't help but curse.

If they can't drive the Germans out to sea, it means that they will have to face a tough battle next. This is very disadvantageous for the British Army.

Beach landings were often able to inflict greater casualties on the Germans. If this advantage is abandoned, the British army will be even less of a match for the German army in the field. Even so, they have a great advantage in terms of troops. However, even the elite units were no match for the Germans, let alone those who had just been drafted and had taken up arms. If you really send them to the battlefield, I'm afraid it will only become a drag.

"Send a telegram to the front-line troops, so that they will not be able to lose and attack at any cost. We are running out of time, and we have to hurry. Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious! Admiral Hamilton said.

At this juncture, he could only continue to put pressure on the generals on the front line. But even Admiral Hamilton didn't know it worked.

At 4 a.m., at the airfield of the German Army Air Corps off the coast of Calais, ground crews were refueling planes and loading ammunition. The pilots are having breakfast. Although, it is not yet light. But they must be ready for battle in advance. As soon as it was dawn, they had to take off immediately.

On the west shore of the strait, the army and marines are fighting desperately with the enemy. If they are not able to take off in time to provide support to the Army and Marine Corps, the troops on the front line will definitely pay even greater losses.

At half past four, the pilots climbed into the flagship's plane one after another. At this moment, there is already a slight light in the sky.

Twenty minutes later, the conning tower gave the order for the fighter to take off.

Fighter jets and bombers, one after another, took off from the shells and flew towards the west side of the strait. At the speed of these planes, it only takes ten minutes for them to be able to fly over the battlefield.

On the front-line battlefield, both the British army on the attacking side and the German army on the defending side are exhausted at this moment. The only thing that made the Germans happy was that the line of defense was still in their hands. And their counterattack is about to begin.
