Chapter 2: The Battle of the Rush to the Sea
Lynn could never have imagined that he would actually cross over to become Hitler.
He is a lover of peace, and he has crossed over to become the war boss Hitler, which makes him cry and laugh.
"Is there no end to World War II?" Lynn thought about it interestingly: "Maybe there will be no massacre of Jews, no Soviet-German war, after all, I don't hate Jews, and I don't want a fight between the two countries." ”
Lynn thought about this question and vetoed it, the Second World War happened not because of Hitler, but because the whole of Germany demanded revenge, even if this Hitler died, there were other Chang Tler and Wang Teller, who would still become the head of the country, and World War II would still break out.
Of course, Lynn believed in the butterfly effect, he thought he did not have Hitler's eloquence, and he did not know how Hitler became the head of Germany, so it is very likely that the future chancellor of Germany in World War II will not be him.
After all, his ideas, character and abilities are very different from those of the previous Hitler, and it can be said that the personality factor of a person alone can completely determine a person's future path.
In any case, Lynn, now Hitler, not only did not die, but came to a more wonderful and suitable world for him.
It was now September 1914, more than two months after the start of the First World War, and the Battle of the Marne, known as the "Miracle of the Marne", had just ended.
After the Battle of the Marne, Germany and Britain and France fought for territory in northeastern France and Belgium, which led to the Battle of the Sea.
Hitler's unit belonged to the 16th Regiment of the Ninth Army (Bavaria) and was a recruit and a herald at the regimental headquarters. The entire corps was made up of university students and volunteers, most of whom had been trained for less than a month, and the combat effectiveness of the German standing army was a world apart. Because of the emptiness of the German reserves, in desperation, a newly formed unit lacking training and equipment was sent to the battlefield to attack the enemy's machine-gun positions in an orderly manner, and even Hitler, who was a herald, was sent to the infantry squad to attack the enemy's positions, without seeing the command of the regimental headquarters and division headquarters staff at all, in fact, the final result was obvious, only 6,000 of the 36,000 recruits survived in the end - that is, only one of the six survived.
The Ninth Army, a new corps of 36,000 recruits and 1,000 veterans, was ordered to carry out a surprise assault on Ypre, and it must be said that it was a difficult task.
Ypre is a small town, and the Germans want to tear a hole in the Anglo-French defense line, and then expand this opening to flank the British and French forces on the defense line, and the attack point of this opening is the town of Ypre.
"Our goal is Ypre!"
Hu Hu said, Luo Hu is Hitler's squad leader, his name is Jonas, a Bremen, a veteran, Joonas in his memory is a good squad leader, he can take good care of the people in the class, he is usually honest and trained seriously. There were ten people in their class, and now there were only five left, and the other five died on the way to attack Ypre.
Four German fighters flew over the German positions and flew to the French positions for reconnaissance, and the German soldiers saw that their fighters were greatly demoralized, and some even cheered.
"Rush!" The whistle sounded, the commander of the unit gave the order, and all the soldiers in the trench jumped to their feet, hunched over and ran forward. Seeing this, Hitler in the trench picked up the Mauser rifle next to him and rushed forward.
Stray bullets were constantly "whizzing" by, and the French 75 guns exploded from time to time, shrapnel mixed with dirt, and each 75 shell was capable of taking the lives of at least three people.
The French Type 1897 75mm gun, which can be said to be the best artillery in the world so far, has excellent performance, with a rate of fire of 15 to 20 rounds per minute, which is twice the rate of fire of the German artillery of the same period, and this kind of artillery has been copied by various countries.
This artillery was used in World War II and was also a lethal weapon in the hands of the French army.
The artillery roared, under the interweaving of machine-gun and rifle fire, cheap ones fell in rows, stumps and broken arms were everywhere, and the whole battlefield was in chaos.
"Help me!"
A soldier next to him was shot and fell to the ground, covered in blood, his eyes revealed a desperate look, wailing on the ground for help, Hitler stopped and prepared to save him, but Jonas ordered Hitler: "Don't save, keep rushing, we can save more people as long as we rush through the enemy line." ”
Hitler thought about it, what to save at this time, the wounded people on the way to the charge were all in sight, and they couldn't be saved at all. Only speed occupied the trenches of the French, so that more people could live.
The soldier was so badly wounded that he was soon silent, and looking at his eyes with unfocused pupils, Hitler had mixed feelings, and his heart was not a good feeling.
Squatted down behind a stone, glanced at the Mauser rifle in his hand, although he had not used the Mauser rifle, but the famous Mauser rifle was like thunder, especially the 98 Mauser in his hand, which was the second life of ordinary German soldiers in World War I and World War II, with excellent manufacturing technology and long range, the king of rifles in this period.
Jump out from behind the rocks and crawl on the grass, pull the bolt, find the target, aim, hold your breath, shoot! All the movements are done in one breath, and you look confident. The recoil pushed the butt against Hitler's shoulder, causing him to lean back a bit. Hitler did not pay any attention to this, his eyes were fixed on his target, the guns rang out, and a French soldier was sniped by Hitler and died instantly.
"It's so lucky." A voice came from behind Hitler, Hitler turned his head to see that it was a wild bull who was in the same class as him, and the original name of the wild bull was not called the wild bull, but because he was tall and strong, and his strength was greater than that of the cow, so he was nicknamed the wild bull by everyone. Like Hitler, he was a new soldier, but he had fought valiantly in a bayonet battle a few days earlier, killing several French soldiers and being promoted to private of first class.
The ranks of German soldiers from low to high are private, third class, second class, first class, first class, private of the first class, and above they are non-commissioned officers. Originally, the recruits who had just joined the army were privates and privates, but it is said that Kaiser Wilhelm II rewarded the volunteers for their courage, so the recruits became privates as soon as they joined the army.
"Well done!" Jonas, who was next to him, exclaimed that whether Hitler was lucky or not, it was a credit to be able to defeat the enemy's machine gunner.
Hitler smiled slightly, he was a good player with guns, and he used to be at least the top three in shooting competitions in military schools. And this time, he didn't know what the reason was, he felt that his body was now five or six times stronger than his previous body, and his eyesight was much better than before.
The bolt was pulled, and with another shot, an enemy machine gunner fell.
This shot is enough to prove that the previous shot was not luck.
"Ouch, that's good." Jonas believed that this was not luck, he did not expect that the herald, who had always behaved mediocre, would suddenly explode today, Jonas pointed to a French soldier and said: "Give me a beating, he was directing the battle just now, he should be an officer." ”
"Yes." Hitler pulled the trigger and fired again.
Jonas and the bull puffed out their eyes, only to see that the French officer had been hit by Hitler again!
What a god!
This is the thought in the hearts of Jonas and the brute bull, three shots and three hits, only soldiers who have been trained all year round can achieve such a result. Hitler, a recruit, had such a great talent?
Hitler fired again, but alas, the wind picked up, and the breeze caused the bullet to deviate slightly from the target.
Failed......
Hitler was not depressed, long-range sniping was not a hundred shots, there were too many factors that affected shooting, such as heart rate, one's own breathing, wind direction, air pressure, etc., Hitler was already very satisfied with three shots, after all, this was the first time he saw blood on the battlefield.
Some people say that the first time they kill someone, they will feel nausea, vomiting and fear, but Hitler did not have these symptoms, the first may be because he was far away from the person he killed, he did not notice the death of the person killed, and the second is that Hitler had undergone this kind of psychological training before, so he had already prevented it.
The battlefield was extremely cruel, Hitler was just a small person, and did not have the ability to influence the battle, there were nearly 10,000 French soldiers on this long front, and although the Germans had more than 37,000 people, but 36,000 of them were soldiers who had only been trained for a month, some only learned to shoot, some did not know basic tactical movements, and even some platoons actually carried out intensive charges against enemy positions, after the invention of machine guns, there was no difference between intensive charging and seeking death.
Just when the Germans were more than 20 meters away from the French position, the main artillery of the French army opened fire, and there was a random bombardment in front of the French position.
"Woooooooooo......oo Knock knock knock ......"
Countless bombs burst out, stinging eardrums, Hitler, Jonas and the bull squatted on the ground, at this time, in this case, they can only resign themselves to fate, of course, some recruits lie on the ground in a five-body posture, which is also purely an act of looking for death.
"Everyone, withdraw!"
A man with an armband with the rank of major shouted, in fact, he didn't need to say that the German troops in front of the enemy position had already retreated.
"Let's go." Jonas bowed back, shooting back as he retreated.
There is no way in this situation, with the support of the enemy's artillery, even if you can rush to the enemy's position and engage in a white-knuckle battle with the enemy, but the follow-up reinforcements cannot come up, and this line of defense is difficult to hold.
Hitler shot a Frenchman and then turned and retreated. Just as they were retreating, a shell hit Hitler and the three!
"I'll rub it." Hitler was knocked to the ground, his head was dizzy, his ears were deaf, and he felt pain in some part of his body, which he should have been injured. But he persevered, squatted up and looked at the squad leader and the brute.
"Squad leader!"
The squad leader was much more serious, blood gushed from his chest, and a piece of shrapnel flew into his chest, as if his feet and hands were injured.
The squad leader waved his hand weakly: "You guys go quickly, I can't live." ”
"No, squad leader, you'll be able to live." Hitler took off his military uniform and bandaged Jonas's chest. However, the battlefield was cruel, and the French army had already rushed out of the trenches to launch a counterattack when they saw the German army retreating, and if Hitler and the wild bull did not leave, they were likely to be captured as prisoners by the French troops who rushed up.
"Let's go together, squad leader, can you stand up?" Hitler said that although he and the squad leader had only known each other for more than two hours, Hitler decided that Jonas was his comrade-in-arms.
A soldier cannot abandon his comrades in arms no matter what.
"I also have a wounded leg and cannot stand up, I command you to leave immediately. Rest assured, the army will not blame you in this case. Jonas pushed Hitler away, with a stern look in his eyes, and gave Hitler the order.
At this time, the brute bull who was stunned by the shell just woke up and crawled over, and Hitler said to the brute bull: "You leave here with the squad leader, how about I cover you to leave?" ”
Time was pressing, the French army had already discovered the three of them, and they all opened fire to shoot this side, the bullets passed by their ears, and the brute bull did not have time to answer, so he picked up the squad leader and ran to the French position.
"I'm rubbing, what are you running to the French position? This way. Hitler scolded, is this brute bull stupid? Start running without looking at the direction.
"Uh-oh." The brute bull came to his senses and ran towards his position: "I was just knocked unconscious, and when I woke up, you let me carry the squad leader, how do I know which direction to run." ”
"Still stubborn, get out of here." Hitler raised his gun, killed a French soldier, and quickly retreated.
The brute bull is very strong, about 1.9 meters tall carrying the squad leader and walking like flying, Hitler shot and killed several French soldiers again, and he was also scratched by a bullet in the arm, but fortunately it was not very serious and he could hold a rifle.
The squad leader on his shoulder asked Hitler, "Why didn't you leave just now?" It's dangerous for you to do that. ”
"Don't abandon, don't give up!" Hitler blurted out that the situation was urgent, and he didn't think much about it, blurting out a famous TV quote.
As the sun sets, it is extraordinarily blood-red.
