Chapter 174: Churchill's Oath

"Rommel" was released publicly in the United Kingdom, and Churchill also wanted to see what kind of person this Rommel really was.

Churchill knew that the reality of this movie was extremely high, the 7th Panzer Division filmed in it was real, and all the weapons and equipment of Germany were also real, and if you want to understand the real 7th Panzer Division, you must watch this movie.

Several ministers of the wartime cabinet gathered in the Prime Minister's Office, what did they rush to? Let's watch the movie "Rommel" together.

Because this film is highly realistic and is shot on the spot, the British wartime cabinet should learn about Germany's devil's division and the Nazi god of war Rommel from this movie.

Churchill and several ministers of the wartime cabinet secretly began to watch "Rommel" in the screening room of the Prime Minister's Office.

The movie was written during World War I, when Churchill saw that a French division was captured with a mere platoon of troops, and Churchill couldn't help but applaud Rommel.

Churchill could not help but say with emotion:

"Rommel was really a genius of war, and it was unfortunate that the British Empire had such an enemy, but for me personally, I consider myself very lucky to have such an enemy."

Other members of the wartime cabinet also expressed their thoughts on Rommel:

"It turns out that Rommel was so powerful during the First World War!"

"It was only twenty years old! Genius, genius of war! ”

"I really don't know whether it is the luck or sorrow of our wartime cabinet to meet such an enemy."

After the movie was put on the French campaign, the 7th Panzer Division's serious military discipline and high fighting spirit. Immediately infected Churchill and several of them.

The general public only watches the movie is not thrilling. The picture is not beautiful. Churchill: The purpose of watching "Rommel" is not so simple, they want to understand the Seventh Panzer Division and Rommel the person through the movie.

The quality of the German army, which was really much higher than that of the British army, at least the Seventh Panzer Division, which Churchill could not help but admit.

Then the film appeared the armored troops of the 7th Panzer Division, and hundreds of No. 4 tanks appeared on the screen, and the scene directly shocked Churchill and others speechless.

Tank IV at the beginning of World War II. It is much better than the British and French tanks, and it can be said that the No. 4 tank at the beginning of World War II was the medium tank with the best performance and the most firepower, and the 7th Panzer Division was all No. 4 tanks.

During the war, when the cabinet saw the armored troops of the 7th Armored Division, it was half of their hearts cold, and this was not the end, and then the half-track armored vehicles of the 7th Armored Division appeared on the screen.

"Damn it."

Churchill couldn't help but curse, because the number of these half-track armored vehicles is also quite large, at least more than a hundred, which is equivalent to the establishment of a British army-level unit.

After the half-track came the self-propelled guns. First, self-propelled guns with 88 anti-aircraft guns, about twenty-four of these self-propelled guns.

"This is an 88-mm anti-aircraft gun that can hit tanks!"

"Yes. This 88-mm anti-aircraft gun was known as the tank opener. ”

"I see, our Matilda tank was destroyed by the 88 gun in the cold wind, damn the 88 gun, I hate the name tank opener."

"O my God! How did Rommel, the Nazi god of war, come up with the idea of putting the 88 anti-aircraft gun on the tank chassis? ”

"This kind of anti-aircraft gun is really terrifying to install on a tank, and it can be used to the extreme in maneuver and firepower, and it is multi-purpose, fighting aircraft in the air, shooting tanks in flat shooting, and shooting at elevation angles can be used as ordinary cannons."

"Artifact! We also want to have this thing, and immediately let the military industry department copy it. ”

"It's too late! We don't have a suitable anti-tank gun yet! ”

"If you don't have time to develop it, if you don't have time to develop it, if you don't do it in one year, you won't believe that the British Empire can't research a good anti-tank gun."

Before the outbreak of World War II, most of the anti-tank guns used by various countries were 37 mm and 50 mm anti-tank guns.

After the self-propelled anti-tank guns, there were ten self-propelled guns of 150 mm caliber, and the huge and high muzzles stunned Churchill and several others.

"Oh my God, these Germans really don't want people to live, such a large-caliber gun, they are actually mounted on a tank chassis."

"If you look closely, what kind of tank chassis are these?"

"It looks like the chassis of tank No. 2!"

"Tank No. 2 has already begun to be retired in the German army, and the Germans are using it as waste! What a great idea. ”

When Churchill saw the equipment of the 7th Panzer Division, his heart was really cold, and the British army was simply a beggar compared to others.

Several members of the wartime cabinet were silent after reading all the weapons and equipment of the 7th Panzer Division, and it was no longer important to them how Rommel fought the French campaign.

"Bump...... Damn Rommel. ”

"Damn the Devil's Division."

"Annihilate them, I swear to annihilate them."

"Mr. Prime Minister, what are we going to do to annihilate them!"

"What to annihilate them? Aren't they going to Africa? Let's annihilate them in Africa, and we won't defend Greece, abandon Greece immediately, retreat all the British troops to Crete, and then transfer them to Africa.

In the Middle East, India, Australia, Canada and other places to draw troops to Africa, at the same time in the United States to buy tanks, buy aircraft.

I'm going to send the 7th Panzer Division to hell, I'm going to take the damned Rommel and take it to the streets of London. ”

"Mr. Prime Minister, are you sure you don't have a fever?"

"I don't have a fever! Execute the order! ”

"Since Mr. first decided, I'll just do it."

Japan is also showing the movie "Rommel", little Japan has always worshiped the strong, and Japan has practiced militaristic education, worshipping heroes is simply from the emperor to the commoners.

The movie "Rommel" is a big hit in Japan, the movie theater is full, men, women, old, young Japanese, all go to see the movie "Rommel".

The whole Paramount company was smiling, they really couldn't imagine it! This "Rommel" movie can actually be popular all over the world, and Paramount has made a lot of money this time, and the global box office will not be less than 600 million US dollars.

This achievement is definitely the highest global box office in the history of films, Paramount's 50 million dollar masterpiece "Rommel", in exchange for a global box office of 500 million, is simply a lot of money.

China is at war, and only some big cities can see "Rommel", so China's box office contribution will not be much, but there should be one or two million dollars.

There is only one country in the world that has not shown the movie "Rommel", and that is the Soviet Union, which at this time is engaged in a cult of personality! It was impossible for them to let the film touting "Rommel" be released in the USSR.

In addition, the Soviet Union was a red country, and the capitalist countries were two fundamentally opposed systems, and there was no doubt that capitalist films could never enter the cinemas of the Soviet Union.
