In September of the 30th year of the Republic of China, when Zhang Mingyu was preparing to carry out a final attack on the Yue army entrenched in the vicinity of Taiyuan, Shanxi, Germany, which was thousands of miles away just over two months ago, finally opened the prelude to World War II under the leadership of Hitler, a war maniac.

25 German army, navy and air forces carried out a second blitzkrieg against Norway, and under the heavy attack of 100 tanks, 1,000 aircraft and the entire fleet, the airfields and ports of Norway were almost completely destroyed.

Two days after the German attack, the SA took control of the entire area from Oslo to Trondheim, Bergen and Narvik.

The success of the German offensive was undoubtedly a formal challenge to the British, and the Norwegian coast was only 310 miles from Skaper Bay, so the British launched a naval attack on the ports of Trondheim and Narvik. More than a dozen German fighters were shot down, while the British lost two, but the attack of the infantry landing on the coast was repulsed by the German infantry.

In early July 1940, Norway surrendered, and King Haakon VII fled to London in a hurry. With the support of Germany, Ghisling founded the New Deal and declared Norway an ally of Germany (Ghisling was executed at the end of the war in the original history, but in the present history, due to the desperate struggle of Zhang Mingyu, a little butterfly, history has slowly deviated. Hitler's attack on Norway was more than a week late, and although the European battlefield as a whole has not changed much, who knows what Europe will become in the future after the situation of China's resistance has changed? Nine days after Norway's surrender, the Germans succeeded in a third blitzkrieg, this time targeting Denmark - Operation Weiser. The action was even more rapid than the last, and the Germans met little resistance, and at noon the SA entered Copenhagen, where Danish radio broadcast King Christian X's declaration of Denmark's neutrality and the placement of Denmark "under German protection".

Although the German military campaign against Norway and Denmark ended in a brilliant victory, it also had challenging consequences, such as the fall of Chamberlain in England, and the fall of Winston? Winston Churchill takes over 10 Downing Street. In the United States, Roosevelt also began to step up the pace of the armed forces, and in the United States, he began to mass-produce fighters, bombers, and other aircraft, tanks, and other weapons and equipment throughout the country.

The Soviet Union declared its neutrality on the same day that Denmark announced its surrender, and at the same time secretly signed a non-aggression pact with Germany, while Stalin deployed heavy troops in the Far East and on the European border, wanting to get a piece of the European battlefield and intervene in Northeast China.

It is impossible for Stalin not to know Zhang Mingyu's performance in China, so he deployed nearly 500,000 troops from the Far East on the Sino-Soviet border, although Stalin's move brought Zhang Mingyu a lot of trouble, but at this time it also contained a large number of military and material resources of the Yue army in the northeast, according to his own words, they can give up North China, but they must not give up the rich "Manchukuo".

Because in their eyes, the rich black land of "Manchukuo" contains far richer resources than their own land, and they certainly do not want to give it up.

Although it is said that after the Battle of Wuhan with the Nationalist Axe, the national and material resources were almost exhausted, and he was unable to organize a large-scale battle in a short period of time, but there is an old saying that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the tiger is dead.

Due to the successive defeats in the North China Battlefield, the company was about to lose the rich mineral resources and human resources in North China, so the relationship between the United States and the United States did not turn bad, but on the contrary, there was a tendency to improve the situation.

In Yangqu City, the headquarters of the guard battalion.

Zhang Mingyu put down the telegram sent by Du Yue from the Soviet Union about the latest strategic situation of the German army and the Soviet army in his hand, and fell into deep thought.

Zhang Mingyu knew that Hitler's capture of Norway and Denmark was certain, and he would even capture France soon, because under the attack of the German blitzkrieg, Britain and France were simply unable to resist the pace of the German army.

However, Zhang Mingyu could not control the future of his son, because Hitler insisted on launching an attack in advance, Zhang Mingyu's strength was still very weak at this time, if he did not seize North China and Northeast China as a base as soon as possible, then he would be powerless to change or indirectly support Hitler's actions in Europe, if Hitler still ended in failure as in the original history, then Zhang Mingyu's plan would be completely frustrated.

The only thing that deserves Zhang Mingyu's pleasure is that Stalin has assembled heavy troops in the Far East, which will definitely be able to contain a large number of troops of the Yue army, and virtually provide Zhang Mingyu with the best opportunity to seize Shanxi and even the whole of North China.

Just as Zhang Mingyu was pondering, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door. Zhang Mingyu raised his head and saw Li Gang walking in in a hurry with a face on his face.

Zhang Mingyu asked, "What's wrong?" Gangzi. ”

"Throne! Just now, the brothers in charge of the guard of the third company reported that a group of devils had arrived from the direction of Xinkou, and it seemed that they had come to urge for ammunition. What to do? Li Gang said.

"How many devils are there in this group?" Zhang Mingyu asked.

"There should be a squadron, there are no heavy weapons. There are only two side three buckets and more than a dozen large trucks! Li Gang replied.

"More than a dozen trucks, this must have been sent by the devil to haul supplies and ammunition!" Thinking of this, Zhang Mingyu immediately ordered: "Order the three companies to defend the city, and the first company and the second company to divide the troops on both sides, and eat this devil squadron for me!" ”

"Yes!" Li Gang stood upright, and immediately turned to leave.

Soon Li Gang conveyed the order, and Tie Niu and Liu Dalong quickly went out of the city with a company and hid behind the wild slopes on both sides.

In less than ten minutes after hiding in a row, two side three-wheeled motorcycles drove from the west, followed by a long line of cars behind the three-wheeled motorcycles, and more than ten large trucks followed the side three-wheeled slowly Chaoyang Qucheng.

The two side three wheels took the lead to drive to the city, and when they saw that the city gate was closed, a devil squadron leader sitting on the side bucket jumped down and scolded at the city tower: "Bagaya Road!" Open the door! We are here, on the orders of the Captain, to carry supplies and ammunition, quickly! ”

Zhang Haisheng, who was hiding behind the stomping wall on the city tower, held his Mosinagan sniper rifle and aimed it at the head of the devil captain under the city, and scolded softly: "Dog, Lao Tzu let you scold!" After speaking, he gently pulled the trigger, and with a crisp gunshot, a stream of blood suddenly shot out of the devil's skull, and the whole person fell backwards with a bang.

Seeing that the squad leader was dead, the devil soldiers next to him squatted down and shouted, "Baga, enemy attack!" After saying that, he shot indiscriminately at the city wall.

The bullets hit the city wall and splashed dust, and the devil squadron leader jumped out of the truck and asked the devil next to him: "What's the situation?" ”

"Youzhi Na, enemy attack!" A ghost soldier next to him replied as he looked around vigilantly with a gun.

"Yaga!" The Devil Squadron Leader saw that two more Imperial warriors had been killed just as he was asking, he drew his command knife and waved it at the city wall, "Shoot!" Shoot! Kill the damned Shina people! ”

All the devils fired fiercely at the city wall, and the soldiers of the three companies on the city wall, with the cooperation of the sniper squad, resolutely returned fire, and the two sides immediately launched fierce fire.

Just when the devil squadron brandished the command knife [***] and said, "Shoot!" Shoot! At this time, the earth-shattering shouts of the soldiers of the Reading Force suddenly sounded on both sides of them, and he was taken aback and looked back at both sides, and saw countless Chinese [***] people in white military uniforms, rushing towards them.

The leader of the devil squad yelled at both sides: "Attack! Attack! ”

Immediately, the devils of the two squads pushed away Huang Chengcheng's bullets one after another, and then shouted with bayonets and rushed back to both sides, trying to fight with the guard battalion with bayonets.

Who knew that the soldiers of the guard battalion did not buy their battles at all, and picked up the flower machine in their hands and swept at the oncoming devils, two reinforced infantry companies, six or seven hundred submachine guns, and powerful assault firepower, and soon annihilated the squadron, and the entire battle lasted less than an hour.

The guard battalion completely annihilated more than 150 people from a squadron of the 11th Infantry Wing at the cost of 13 casualties, 1 killed, and 12 wounded.

It is no wonder that a squadron that came to engage in transport, of course, did not need to bring a machine gun squad.

Listening to the gunfire outside the city stopped, Zhang Mingyu got up and walked out of the headquarters with his hands on his back, facing the sky and looking at the clear sky, he couldn't help but think of his father and his girlfriend in that time and space, I don't know how my father's body is, and I don't know if my girlfriend is looking for a boyfriend again, she must be very sad about her sudden disappearance, just when Zhang Mingyu was sighing, Li Gang had already walked in briskly and reported to Zhang Mingyu: "Military seat, successfully complete the task, and wipe out one hundred and fifty-six devils, A whole squadron did not run away, not a single one! Twelve trucks were also captured, one with three wheels on the side, and the other was blown up during the fighting. ”

"Good! Send a telegram to Zhang Biao and ask where they are now? Let them be sure to rush to Xinkou before dark today and launch an attack on the devils! to attract the attention of the devil! Zhang Mingyu said to Li Gang.

"Yes! I'll do it right away! Li Gang agreed with a bang, and immediately took the order and left.
