Chapter 326: Defection
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Just after the Germans had withdrawn from the Soviet position, suddenly there were a series of explosions of towering buildings on both sides of the street, each of which was nearly ten stories high, and in this dense explosion, the whole building was instantly torn apart, and huge stones fell downward, like a rain of boulders in the sky. The German soldiers, who had just entered the Soviet position and were about to take over, were caught off guard by the sudden rain of boulders, and lost nearly one-third of their troops in the blink of an eye. And just when the German army was in a hurry, the Soviet army, which had been beaten by the Germans just now and had no power to fight back, suddenly turned back at this moment, and against this group of scrambled German troops, it was a burst of machine gun fire, grenade bombardment, in short, all the weapons that could be used were used at this moment. The change of battle was so fast that the Germans didn't have time to react, the sky was still raining boulders, and their way out was blocked by the Soviet army in an instant. The battle at this moment completely turned into a one-sided slaughter. The German army, which had been smashed by the rain of boulders, was already in disarray, and now did not even have the most basic ability to organize resistance. The battle ended quickly, and for the Soviets it was another great victory.
In the space of two days, there were many successes in Soviet positions all over Leningrad, and in these battles, the Soviet casualties were almost negligible. This allowed Stalin to wake up laughing at night when he fell asleep with excitement. Stalin's side was indeed happy, but what about Hitler, who was defeated and defeated? What about him?
Hitler, of course, was not happy, and every time there was a report of the destruction of the German army in the past two days, he became angry, and in his anger he had already killed three signal corpsmen in a row. Now the whole German army is in fear. Everyone was afraid, and no one dared to go in and report the military situation to Hitler, because no one wanted to die so inexplicably.
But when another lost battle appeared, a signal corpsman walked into Hitler's command post. Because delaying the reporting of military information is also a capital offense.
Hitler has not heard good news since the Soviets changed their tactics and fought positional warfare with the Germans, which made his face tense for the past two days, and the blood-devouring viciousness in his eyes never subsided. Now in the German camp, except for De Gaulle, who dared to say a few words to Hitler, the other generals did not dare to squeak anymore.
"What's new, good news or bad news?" Hitler's eerie voice rang out in the room, as creepy as the impermanence of life.
Before the signal soldier could speak, his body began to tremble, and he said in a hurry: "In several Soviet positions west of Leningrad, the Soviets actually ambushed tanks, and when our army confronted the Soviet army, those tanks suddenly came out from behind and ran over our army, and our army was finally defeated by the Soviet army under the condition of being attacked on the belly and back, and finally suffered a heavy defeat, and this time it is estimated that our army lost nearly 15,000 soldiers. ”
"I'm x, I've been defeated again, and I've lost some of my troops. In the past two days, Lao Tzu has heard too much such news, and he doesn't want to hear it anymore. You give Lao Tzu to die. With that, Hitler raised his gun again.
"Your Excellency, it's none of his business." General de Gaulle stopped. But after all, it was still a step too late, and the guns rang out mercilessly, and the signal soldier fell in front of everyone again. Looking at the signal soldier who fell to the ground and was not completely dead, and his body was still convulsing, everyone in the room gasped, and did not dare to say any more, but not speaking did not mean that they would be submissive, and at this moment, several people had already sprouted rebellion in their hearts. Now that the war is not going well, Hitler does not lead everyone to come up with a way to defeat the enemy, but here he kills innocents indiscriminately, which makes people's hearts panic, and it is inevitable that some people will have different intentions.
De Gaulle looked at the dead signal corps on the ground and admonished Hitler: "Your Excellency, the war is unfavorable now, and I know that you are very anxious, but this is not about this signal corps. He's just a communications soldier, he didn't even go to the battlefield, he just reported to you some battlefield conditions, so why should you be angry with him. Our immediate priority now is to actively change the offensive strategy, and not to blame anyone here. Perhaps De Gaulle was the only one in the German camp who dared to speak to Hitler like that. But at this moment, in the case of Hitler's rage, even De Gaulle was not necessarily safe, and De Gaulle was already speaking in a heavier tone when he saw the signal soldier being killed in front of his eyes.
"Why, do you dare to doubt me? De Gaulle, believe it or not, I'm going to shoot you right now. Don't think that if you have saved my life, I will not kill you. Whoever dares to question me, whoever it is, he will die. Hitler turned his gun and put it against de Gaulle's head. This sudden change surprised the other officers in the room, and they all pleaded with Hitler de Gaulle.
Although Hitler was very angry at the moment, he was not going to kill De Gaulle, De Gaulle was a rare military talent in the German army, he had made countless meritorious contributions, and he had saved his surname several times in danger, if he really killed De Gaulle, then it would definitely make the officers below panic, and when the time came, maybe the Soviet army would not have to defeat him, and these officers and generals under him would first reverse themselves. Hitler's mind was still sober, and he could still think of the truth that things must be reversed, but he did not expect that what he had been doing these days had already reached the limit of everyone.
"Come, take de Gaulle down and lock him up, no one is allowed to visit him without my orders." Hitler roared out the door. In a short time, two soldiers rushed in from outside the door, and then looked at the scene in front of them with a look of disbelief, and escorted de Gaulle out of the room from Hitler's gunpoint.
It was a terrible meeting, and no one could have imagined that it would end up like this. After de Gaulle was escorted down by the soldiers, the meeting was dissolved. But is that really the end of it? Of course not, this meeting really made those officers realize the horror and desperation of Hitler, so a few officers could no longer bear such a frightened and frightened speech, and they did not want to die one day like that signal soldier.
"Dameng, we can't go on like this, sooner or later Hitler will kill us. Today you have also seen that Hitler almost killed De Gaulle, and it is simply terrible that he wanted to kill a benefactor who was so loyal to him and saved him so many times. If we continue to stay here, sooner or later we will actually be killed. A lieutenant said to another officer of the rank of captain named Da Meng.
Da Meng nodded, "You're right, David." We can't afford to sit back and wait for the rest of our lives, but what do we do? Do you want to flee back to Germany? Even if we had fled back to Germany, we would have died in the end. ”
David said, "No, of course we can't go back to Germany. We stayed in the USSR. ”
Da Meng didn't understand a little and said, "Stay in the Soviet Union? We are Germans, and now we are at war with the Soviets, and we will definitely die worse if we stay in the Soviets. ”
David sneered and said, "Da Meng, you said that if we tell Stalin the intelligence of the German army, then what kind of treatment will we get in the Soviet Union?" ”
Dameng was shocked and said: "You mean that you are going to commit treason, and then go to Stalin?" ”
David said, "It's not me, it's us. Don't you want to get out of here? Do you still want to wait here to die? I've heard that Stalin treated his soldiers very well. As long as we get to Stalin and provide the information they want, we will be able to live a good life in the future. Dameng, think about it. ”
Hearing Davy say this, Da Meng really weighed it in his heart. After a while, I saw that Dameng seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Okay, let's do this, then what will we do?" ”
David smiled and said, "Without further ado, we'll act tonight!" ”
Hitler would never have imagined that in his cruel and unreasonable high-handed policies would lead to the defection of officers. At this moment, Hitler was still alone in the room, cursing the incompetence of his men.
