On the same day, more than 10,000 people from all walks of life in Berlin held rallies and marches to "celebrate the air victory and mourn the national mourning". Hitler and representatives from all walks of life, Himmler, Propaganda Minister Goebbels, War Minister and Defense Minister: Werner von Brenburg (Field Marshal), Minister of the Interior: Wilhelm Frank, Minister of Economy, and Governor of the National Bank: Vanelk Funk attended the rally and presented the couplet.

Besides, Rommel's armored assault group, as soon as it entered the Polish border, was faced with countless Polish outposts, and under normal circumstances, one outpost is only one squad of people, and there are absolutely no anti-tank guns. There are several kinds of light weapons, the lonely outposts on the Polish plain, how can they stop Rommel's tank assault group, they don't even need to stop the artillery, they directly bombard it from a distance, and the lonely pillbox is directly bombarded into slag by the 120mm smoothbore gun.

Zhang Jun has long been strict with his subordinates, it is strictly forbidden to shoot prisoners of war at any time, if anyone dares to violate the ban, they will be sent to a military court for trial, so as long as those Polish troops surrender, there is no need to worry about the SS shooting them, Zhang Jun explained to his subordinates, "My subordinates will never do the kind of trick of escorting prisoners of war to the corner to play the trick of lining up to be shot, but my heroic and honorable SS soldiers, don't you know that when the enemy has not dropped his weapons, run to the corner to kill him?" "Of course you can, as long as the enemy doesn't drop his weapon, he is not a prisoner of war, and he can be shot legally, because this is war, this is the battlefield, and no one has anything to say.

The Polish plain is very suitable for tank assault, the highway speed of the cottage 99 design is 65 kilometers per hour, and the speed of driving 50 kilometers per hour on this large plain is still there, the conical tank formation, the earth-shattering roar, the huge body of the cottage 99 tank, ruthlessly crushing the ground, the vibration from the ground is enough to shake people up and jump a few centimeters off the ground, the roar of the diesel engine of the cottage 99 tank is also particularly harsh, and his power is also very strong, The Shanzhai Type 99 tank itself weighs 51 tons, and the overall vehicle weighs 61 tons with the addition of external armor.

There is no need for Rommel to worry about it in the air, if Rommel has a tank on the ground that is destroyed by an airplane in the air, which Rommel does not find Hartmann to fight hard, Zhang Jun will not be able to spare Hartmann. The 1st SS Panzer Corps did not set up a separate aviation division for decoration, they were the patron saint of SS tanks, and they could also be said to be nannies.

When Rommel arrived in front of the Polish defense line, from the departure to the present, an hour has passed, and at this time you can't stop to refuel or something, it's too dangerous, if the Polish artillery is not destroyed, then Rommel's cottage Type 99 tank is refueling, and the Polish army suddenly shells, wouldn't it be a tragedy, how could the famous general Rommel make such a low-level mistake.

"All pay attention, the speed is reduced to thirty, pay attention to the whole team, all the follow-up artillery is immediately deployed."

Rommel began to form ten kilometers from the Polish lines, and at the same time let the artillery that followed him deploy.

Rommel is still the old rule, he chose a second-echelon tank as his command vehicle, which is also the most tangled place for Zhang Jun, a deputy army commander actually chose to charge in person, although the spirit is commendable, you can understand the situation on the battlefield at the first time, but if Rommel is unlucky to see God, then the armored assault commanded by Rommel will not be chaotic.

"The whole army maintains speed, a conical assault formation, and the Polish front is directly in front of the target."

Rommel just finished the order, the commander of the armored regiment of the "Viking Division" - Weitman, Weitmann was the commander of the armored regiment under Rommel at this time, as soon as he heard the tone of the deputy commander, he knew that his deputy commander was going to charge in person again, Zhang Jun had already secretly taken care of Weitman, if the deputy commander still continued to charge with their regiment's tanks, then Weitmann, the commander of your regiment, should not do it, and at the same time, Zhang Jun strictly ordered Weitman, if Rommel still wanted to charge into battle in person, and did not listen to your dissuasion, Wittmann has the right to talk directly to Zhang Jun and let the commander deal with this man who always wants to gallop like a knight.

However, Wittmann still respects Rommel very much, and he doesn't plan to go directly to the deputy commander like this, and wants to personally persuade the deputy commander, Wittmann picked up the microphone and began to call his tank group:

"I'm the regimental commander Wittman, and I'm now in car No. 3301 in the first combat queue, and the deputy commander is in that tank, and I answered quickly."

"Report to the regiment commander, the deputy commander is on my chariot, car No. 3344 in the middle of the second combat queue, the answer is complete."

"Good luck to car No. 3344, please give the microphone to the deputy commander, I want to talk to the deputy commander."

The commander of car No. 3344 hurriedly handed the intercom to Rommel and said very respectfully:

"Deputy Commander, Captain Wittmann is looking for you."

"Oh" Rommel thought that Wittmann had something important to report, and quickly took the microphone.

"Report to the deputy commander, you go back to the command car, we are in the charge, deputy commander, you are related to the safety of our entire assault group, I ask you to return to the command car."

"Commander Weitman, you must know that I am the commander of the Viking Division, and you are only the commander of the regiment, so please organize the combat mission of your own regiment, I don't need you to worry about it here."

Rommel's words were very direct, and Wittmann's words were sealed at once, and Wittmann, who had no choice, had to quickly report Rommel's situation to Zhang Jun, who was really in the command room, hurriedly took over the microphone of the communicator, everyone should know the importance of Rommel to Zhang Jun, Zhang Junqiang strategic command ability, and Rommel is the tactical commander of the first line, and the command art is impeccable. Rommel is like Zhang Jun's right-hand man.

"Colonel Wittmann, you have fulfilled the duties of a subordinate, it is very inappropriate for Rommel as the deputy commander to risk his life, he is joking with the entire armored assault group, if he Rommel is killed, who will command the troops, and temporarily change the general? Thank you for all you have done for the 1st SS Panzer, I will remember your integrity, my warriors, you can help me connect with Rommel, and I will take care of the rest. ”

"Hey! Hitler, everything for Germany, everything for the SS. ”

"Toot toot...... Feed...... I'm Army Commander Zhang Jun...... Are you Rommel? ”

"Well, it's the commander! If you have any orders, send them directly to the command vehicle, and my staff officer will handle it. ”

"Monsieur Rommel, my deputy commander, you are now shouldering the honor of the entire SS Panzer Corps, you are the assault vanguard of our entire army, and if something happens to you, do you know how much of a blow it will take to our morale? So I order you to return to the command post immediately, and must immediately, if you are resisting the orders of me, the commander, I do not mind removing you from your post now and bringing you before a court-martial. ”

"Commander...... I ......"

"Carry out the order, I don't want my subordinates to be proud of disobeying the orders of their superiors, that is his shame, and it is also a shame for the SS, do you want to be the first to give up your honor and bear the shame? My general? ”

Rommel was silent, yes, what the army commander Zhang Jun said was right, our SS can't disobey the orders of the boss as an honorable thing, then in the future, other SS officers will do this, and there is really no way to command the troops, you order me like this, I want to be like that, such an SS can only be a rabble, even if the weapons are advanced, they are scum. Rommel, who had figured it out, suddenly brightened up.

"Report to the army commander, I will immediately return to the front line to command the vehicle, and I will definitely not take it with me to disobey the order, please rest assured."

Zhang Jun, who was at the rear command post, was completely relieved when he heard Rommel say this, but the important thing was that Rommel himself figured it out, he was no longer the regiment commander, but the division commander and deputy army commander, and the responsibilities of these two positions and the regiment commander were much more surprised.

Having figured it out, Rommel ordered tank No. 3344 to send itself to the command post of the rear division, which was composed of more than a dozen command vehicles, behind a small hill, and formed an anticline with the Polish position, anyway, the Polish artillery had no way to bring down Rommel's command post.

Rommel just returned to the command post, a large group of planes flew overhead, the wing of the 10,000 characters logo is very eye-catching, this is of course the Luftwaffe, to be precise, the air force of the 1st SS Panzer Army, they have annihilated the "Rotz" army group of garbage aircraft, now this is to clear the way for Rommel's attack aircraft group, the first is anti-tank guns, the second is all kinds of artillery and anti-aircraft guns, the third target is the pillbox, if the above targets are all killed, then blow up the infantry in the trenches.

The Air Force was Hartmann's business, and Rommel would not intervene, and Rommel, who entered the command vehicle, did not rest, but came directly to the operational map and asked the operational staff officer:

"Are the Air Force reconnaissance photos ready?"

"Ready."

"Find out for me, after connecting the artillery regiment and ordering them to shell according to the set target, and wait until our tanks have reached 500 meters in front of the Polish position, and then stop the shelling."

"Okay, General."

The Germans were very rigid, and there were few people who dared to assert themselves like Rommel, but the good thing was that Rommel realized that this would have a great negative impact on the entire SS and changed his own improper behavior.

Soon Rommel's order was conveyed. Rommel had made sufficient preparations before the attack, and the reconnaissance planes had already taken pictures of the positions of the Polish side, and those artillery groups attacking the enemy at that coordinate had a clear task, and the prepared side always took the initiative.
