Chapter 272: Denmark Surrenders

Frieze is good, but Flitz has a bit of a fiery personality, and Frieze's bluntness and recklessness make him often speak disrespectfully, and even commit offences. In the Wehrmacht, Flitz was an outlier, because it was very rare in the Wehrmacht to dare to defy his superiors, and it was considered disrespectful to his superiors, which was completely contrary to the tradition of the Wehrmacht.

But as a pure soldier, at the military level, Flitz is definitely a rare German armored talent, it can be said that Flitz is a commander who can fully understand the essence of Guderian's "blitzkrieg", and can use it flexibly, over time Flitz will definitely achieve brilliant achievements and become a generation of famous generals.

But Frieze lacked political acumen, nor did he know how to be tactful, he always spoke wildly, and even beat his boss when he was angry, until he was almost expelled from the army. This time the German army was expanded, and the Wehrmacht finally did not tolerate Fritz as an alternative, so they sent him to the Seventh Panzer Army. After talking with Flitze, Limer also felt that Flitz was a rare armored talent, so he appointed Flitz as a colonel commander of the German First Panzer Division to command an armored regiment. And now the German army has an armored regiment in one division, and Flitz is almost the absolute main force of which armored division.

After Flitz arrived, he trained his armored regiment vigorously, and Flitze's training was to use the hell training method, to serve as a soldier under him, and to shed his skin without dying. As a result, Flitz always came first in every monthly assessment.

Flitz also gave his armored regiment the name of the "Reaper's Scythe Armored Regiment", when this naming was reported to Limer. Li Mo commented on a sentence:

"When you take the Danish capital, you can name your own armored regiment separately, and in the future, you can name your own armored regiment with outstanding achievements, all of which are used as an example."

When the two armored regiments of the Seventh Panzer Army got on the ship, one was called Bismarck, and the other was Frieze, and finally the two agreed to go head-to-head, and the bull and horse Frieze won, and Bismarck ended the battle with a pair of panda eyes.

Wait for Flitz to land. Immediately organize your own armored assault regiment. The rapid impact, the earth-shattering roar, almost deafening the ears of a man, the splash of dirt behind the tracks of the tank. Flew out more than ten meters behind the tank. Hundreds of tanks and armor brought up dust. Obscuring the sky. Like a soil dragon, galloping towards Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark......

The Germans quickly advanced into the interior of Denmark without encountering any form of resistance. Flitz entered the capital, Copenhagen. Just four hours after the start of the war, Denmark declared its acceptance of German protection and broke away from the Anglo-French alliance. This was the first time in the history of warfare that paratroopers were used, and it was also the first bloodless airborne assault operation.

A miracle in the history of world warfare, the defeat of a country in 11 hours, all the people in Germany consciously poured into the streets, enthusiastically celebrating the great victory of Germany, and the generals of the Wehrmacht were equally surprised and surprised. Now that the German army has achieved such a brilliant victory, the Wehrmacht, as a member of the German armed forces, has no reason not to rejoice.

Some people are happy, some people are worried, and of course Churchill is the one who is worried. Those damn Germans are too terrifying, 11 hours to beat Denmark to surrender, is there such a precedent in the history of world wars? Absolutely nothing.

Now Britain can't really go to war with Germany, so Churchill can only bear this black cauldron, until Britain has the opportunity and strength to kill the Germans, Churchill's day of emergence will come, but this requires the assistance of the United States! And the United States does not seem to have any intention of entering the war at this time.

Germany's new tactics emerged one after another, leaving the world powers dumbfounded, and the previous "blitzkrieg" followed by the "super blitzkrieg", regardless of the two wings, rushed more than 200 kilometers and stabbed the enemy's capital. Then there is the "city frog jumping tactic", which divides and surrounds the enemy's capital in an instant, and these Germans are the reincarnation of the god of war, who can come up with so many "cheating" things. The United States is the country that pays the most attention to Germany's new tactics, and for this reason it has organized experienced generals to study Germany's new tactics and find a way to crack them, even if they can't crack them, they must learn Germany's new tactics.

Flitz was given the right to name his Panzer Regiment, and was the first regimental unit in the German Seventh Panzer Army to receive such qualifications. In addition, Flitz's fist is harder than Bismarck, Flitz beat Bismarck into a panda eye, and only then did he grab the opportunity, he thought there was a big fight, but he didn't shoot a shot, not to mention how depressed he was.

The goal of the 2nd Assault Team of Exercise Wiesel was to capture the Fornebu airfield near the Norwegian capital Oslo. The original battle plan was for a regiment of paratroopers to parachute at the Fornebu airfield on transport planes under the cover of fighters, and after occupying the airfield, the artillery battalions and anti-aircraft artillery battalions of the paratrooper division would land at the airfield by plane.

In the early morning of 9 November, paratroopers of the 11th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the Airborne Forces took off from Germany's Schleswig airfield under the cover of 110 "Sixth Master" planes in 127 Junkers transport planes, preparing to fly over the Skagerrak Strait and parachute to occupy Oslo's Forneb airfield.

When Li Mo made the plan, he took the weather factors into account, the weather forecast over Denmark and Norway said that it would be sunny, but when it was time to set off, the temperature of the sea current in the north suddenly dropped by several degrees, and it seemed that there was a snowstorm in the Arctic, and by November 9, there was foggy weather along the coast of Norway, and Norway's territory was no more than 150 kilometers from the coastline, and the sky over Norway was full of fog.

From the sea to an altitude of 6,000 meters, there is a heavy fog with multiple layers of dark clouds above the fog, and the visibility is only 20 meters. In this case, low-altitude flight is impossible, and "Junker Aunt" can easily fly above the clouds. If flying over clouds, when will it go down through the clouds? What if you can't see the ground at a certain time? You know, it's flying among the rolling hills of Norway! Lieutenant Colonel Dreves, who led the attack wave, flew in front of the group, and his mood was very nervous. The closer you get to the Oslo Fjord, the fog gets thicker, and Redweis has to order all the planes to fly above the clouds.

Drevis asked the navigator to fly according to the pilot map, at an altitude of 8,000 meters, without any references, without any contours of the ground, flying and flying without even the navigator knowing where the group had flown to. Drevis had no choice but to lower the altitude with the group, burrow into the clouds, and try to see the outline of the ground, so that the terrain could determine the position of the group, and then the course could be adjusted, so that he could fly over the Fornebu airport, but the further down he flew, the thicker the fog became, and the visual distance would not exceed twenty meters.
