Chapter 551: War on the Western Front

readx;??? Only those who have experienced war can truly appreciate the cruelty of war, and only those who have experienced war can understand the preciousness of peace. This is a phrase that every person in the era of peace can be familiar with www.biquge.info but how can people in the era of peace experience the pain of war if they have not experienced war.

From the beginning of Japan's full-scale invasion of China in 37 years to the end of the first half of 1944, the world war had been fought for seven years. The Allied powers, Italy, though a year earlier, had failed. However, Japan and Germany are still resisting strongly.

Due to the arrival of Li Tie, the results of Germany and Japan in this life were much greater than those in the previous life, so as their opponents, the losses of the Entente were naturally much greater than those in the previous life.

At this time, on the Western Front of Germany, the actual total strength of Britain and the United States was only 5 million, and in Normandy alone, a full 3 million were used, and the remaining 2 million were widely distributed in Africa, Britain, and a dozen other countries in Europe.

Although the Germans experienced a great defeat in Russia, due to Li Tie's reassurance, the German personnel losses were not more than in the previous life. Therefore, there are two million German ** teams that retreat to the German-Russian border in this life. A million of them are stationed in Poland, which borders Russia.

Poland had been occupied by the Germans for less than five years, but it had already devastated the Germans. So when the left-facing bandit coalition began to advance on the Polish-Russian border, the resistance groups throughout Poland were demoralized.

In particular, in order to meet the Allied forces in Normandy, Hitler sent a large number of troops from the Polish-Russian border to France for reinforcements. So the resistance groups in Poland took advantage of the emptiness of the German defenses on the border and crossed the border from all directions to join the left side.

This greatly increased the strength of the left, and although there were not enough heavy weapons to the left, there were light weapons to the left, so that in less than a month, there was another Polish resistance army of about 500,000 to the left.

One morning one month after the start of the Normandy landings, on a small hillside not far from the Russian border, dozens of soldiers dressed in various costumes hid under camouflage nets, and they held high-powered binoculars in their hands and stared solemnly at the German position.

"The Germans on the other side have been moving around a lot lately, and they don't look like they're empty," one of the bandit generals asked.

"The more frequent the movements, the more it shows that the Germans are thieves, and you must know that the Polish Resistance on the other side knows much more than we do, and if the German troops on the opposite side are not showy, how can so many resistance troops pass through the Polish blockade," replied to the left.

"But can these Poles be trusted, the boss said that they are not of my race, and their hearts will be different, so we better be careful, it is better to send more teams to infiltrate the border and reconnoitre." Another bandit general suggested.

"Fighting here, our reconnaissance troops suffer a lot, because we are all Asian faces, and we don't understand the language, and no matter how many reconnaissance teams we send there, we will be killed.

You have to trust the Polish Resistance, their intelligence will not be wrong. Now that the Allies have successfully landed in Normandy, even if there are excellent generals like Manstein and Guderian in command, it is useless, after all, in the face of absolute strength, all intrigues and tricks are vulnerable. After saying to the left, he put down the telescope in his hand and said confidently.

"High, it's really high, the commander has been reading poetry and books for several years, and he has been able to reach the point of exporting chapters, and my subordinates admire it." The person who said this was Han Bin, who was chasing after the eldest sister back then, and after a few years, he became much more sleek.

He glared at Han Bin fiercely to the left: "Don't be a sycophant, how can I have this ability, this is a famous saying said by our boss Li Tie, pass the order, the army will gather immediately, and three days later, launch an attack on all German positions in the border area as planned."

Han Bin, you personally run to the liaison office of the Ukrainian army and the Belarusian army, and let them attack the German positions from the north and south ends of Poland respectively, and we will form a central army with the Polish Resistance Army, break through from the central direction of Poland, and attack together with the three-way army, this time we will take the German army by surprise. ”

"Yes." The generals behind him answered together.

On July 10, 1944, on the long border between Poland and Russia, Xiang Zuo led a combined force of bandits to launch a full-scale attack on the German troops stationed in Poland from the Russian border.

The war was fierce from the beginning, and the Ukrainian and Belarusian armies had just regained their homeland, and they saw that the country was torn apart by the Germans, and there was a strong sense of revenge.

Therefore, the Ukrainian army and the Belarusian army fought the hardest, and the attack was the most rapid, and almost all the German troops in front of the two armies were dealt a crushing blow. Of course, the casualties of the two armies were also very large, but the power of revenge was very strong, and where could the two armies that were determined to take revenge be stopped by hundreds of thousands of German soldiers.

On the other hand, the bandit army in the central direction attacked very slowly, and almost never rushed lightly to the left, and he relied on the bombing of planes all the way, and the crushing of the Jewish tank army, which trampled the German troops in front of him fiercely.

The German army defending the center saw that the two flanks had been occupied by the Ukrainian army and the Belarusian army, and they were also afraid that they would be surrounded by three armies, so every time there was almost no major battle with the bandit army to the left, the central German army had already retreated on its own. And to the left was not in a hurry to chase fiercely, so the Germans were slowly pursued.

In the past month, although the German army in Poland also fought back, under the offensive of the powerful bandit army and the harassment of the Polish resistance army, the millions of German troops in Poland were quickly defeated by the leftward coalition army.

At this time, although the German army still had thousands of tanks and thousands of aircraft, the German army, which had already lost its fighting spirit, had greatly reduced its combat strength, and it was rare that the allied forces to the left were not urgent, so the Polish German army simply abandoned Poland and retreated to Germany in annoyance, where there were already sufficient preparations. The Germans were ready to deal a fatal blow to the allied forces to the left on the German border.

But who would have thought that Xiang Zuo, after the full occupation of Poland, would stop the pace of the offensive. While ordering the combined forces of the bandits to rest on the spot, he began to loot the wealth that the Germans had not had time to take away when they had fled Poland in a hurry.

While the Anglo-American Allies were engaged in a bloody battle with the Germans in France, Xiang Zuo and his bandits were enjoying a rare Polish sunbath in Poland.

When the Anglo-American coalition protested to Li Tie again, asking Li Tie to immediately urge him to attack Germany to the left, Li Tie gave a very good reason: "Okay, we will attack Poland, and you will attack France." Now that we have completed the liberation of Poland, you have not yet liberated France.

At that time, it was agreed that after the two sides completed the liberation task, they would join forces on the eastern and western fronts of Germany and then attack Germany together. Now that we have completed our mission ahead of schedule, you can't let us start attacking Germany casually, because first, the preparations for attacking Germany have not yet been completed.

Second, when we beat the Polish team, we suffered heavy casualties and needed to recuperate. ”

Hearing Li Tie's justified reason, the British and American coalition forces had no way to force it, who made Li Tie's life good, their attack on Poland was smooth, but it was indeed difficult for Britain and the United States to attack France. Fortunately, the campaign to liberate Poland by the combined forces of the bandits to the left greatly boosted the morale of the Allies and also hit the morale of the German army.

The resistance organizations in various parts of Europe, seeing that Germany was already in the ascendant, had become a waning mountain, so they rose up one after another, which made the German army's rule in various parts of Europe greatly unstable.

At the same time, the resistance groups in various places spontaneously merged and formed a guerrilla force capable of containing the German army. The guerrillas' attacks in all directions greatly interfered with the normal operations of the German army, and many German troops could not even get the supplies they deserved.

In this way, with the help of the European Resistance Organization and the indirect encouragement of the left-wing coalition forces, the Anglo-American multinational joint forces finally repelled all the German troops in France and liberated the entire territory of France in half a year.

At the end of 1944, the Anglo-French forces finally reached the western border of Germany after paying nearly a million casualties. Seeing that Germany was about to be attacked by both the Allies and the bandits.
