Chapter 124: Return to the Front
The first type of heavy rocket artillery can be used as a support firepower at or above the division level, and the light rocket artillery is used as a regimental and regimental firepower, the first type of heavy rocket artillery is mounted on a truck, and the maneuverability is also very good, and the outstanding feature of the second type of light rocket artillery is that it is light and easy to load, and the disadvantage is that the range is only 3.5 kilometers, but it is very good as a regimental firepower.
Of course, you can also put light rocket artillery on the car, and there is no problem with putting four on a truck, but the truck is also a very scarce strategic material for the German team, and it is impossible for Germany to put these light rocket artillery on the car, with a weight of more than 500 kilograms, a three-wheeled motorcycle can be towed, so why waste truck resources.
Other weapons are also being intensively developed, and Zhang Jun can't help much with the research and development problem, so he can only provide them with sufficient funds, and as for the results of research and development, it depends on their ability.
After listening to Mao Renfeng's report, Zhang Jun specially told Mao Renfeng to pay attention to James of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense? Bond, don't startle the snake, that will make James hide deeper, so that he can't find the slightest evidence of him, so that it will be more difficult to do it at that time, counter-espionage work is not the focus now, the focus is to protect the secrets of new weapons and the current German-Polish war, and when the German-Polish war is over, counter-espionage is what Zhang Jun needs to do.
After doing these things, Zhang Jun asked someone to cook a few Chinese dishes, and had a simple warm lunch with Avril, the time and the situation were too urgent, Zhang Jun had to go to Berlin Airport to take a flight to Berlin, and then return to the front line, as a commander to leave his combat post, it was already very inappropriate, and now after dealing with things, he must go back immediately.
Farewell to his tender wife, Zhang Jun returned to the battlefield of war, there is a field airfield in the ring fortification under the city of Warsaw, it is very convenient to come here from Berlin, Zhang Jun who returned to the command post did not even breathe, Rommel pulled Zhang Jun to the sand table, but the current sand table is the simulation of Warsaw City.
"Commander, you see, now our three main armored divisions have basically captured half of Warsaw City, this Vincent's city frog jumping tactics are really good, with tanks and armored vehicles plus the cover of FA223 helicopters, we can easily transport troops to various key points, and then use these points to divide the Polish army, we are concentrating all the forces of an armored division, we can sweep a division area at one time, this time we can capture half of Warsaw City so smoothly, Vincent has contributed a lot, how are you going to reward him."
When Zhang Jun first saw Vincent, he liked this kid very much, lively, romantic, and energetic, and now it seems that this kid is impatient to fight, which Germany's ally Italian strategic layout can start from this kid, of course, Zhang Jun's strategic layout of Italy is not a conspiracy against Italy, but Italy's funny army, Zhang Jun's meaning must cultivate a senior Italian commander who can fight and fight, and the Italian SS division can be formed in the future, Then put this division under his own training and return to Italy to expand the army, so that Italy has at least one army that can win the battle, otherwise Italy will be like a duck driven by the Allies as in history, and such allies are purely pig-like teammates, which will only drag down Germany.
Now Zhang Jun sees hope, that is Major General Vincent, this Italian officer is the person Zhang Jun focuses on cultivating.
"My general, you have a point, you know that Italy has long been our iron ally, but you also know the combat effectiveness of the Italian army, what else can they do except pick up girls and play football, it can be said that the army that runs away or surrenders in a fight, can such an army help Germany? No, it will only be a drag from Germany, so I plan to form an SS Italian armored division in Italy, let Vincent be the commander of this division, and the tank will equip him with our new copycat Tiger tank, because our cottage 99 tanks are not enough to distribute, and the Wehrmacht is too shameless to grab a share, every day in the Wehrmacht you fight for me, for fear that others will share more, we have to equip Vincent with a copycat 99, it is too difficult, the copycat Tiger is much easier to do, One hundred and fifty tanks can still be squeezed out. ”
Seeing that Zhang Jun was thinking so long-term, Rommel said with great admiration:
"Honorable army commander, I am afraid that no one dares to compare with you in the strategic layout in Germany, you have thought of such a long-term thing, I myself fully agree with your opinion, and at the same time, we can also transfer 2,000 veterans or junior officers to serve in the Italian SS armored division, so that we can quickly help them build up units that have always had the same fighting spirit as the German SS."
Rommel is powerful, immediately understood what Zhang Jun meant, and put forward a reasonable and correct suggestion, only advanced weapons, no brave and daring soldiers, the same rabble, once these tenacious German veterans or officers enter the Italian division, let these veterans take the Italians to fight a few small victories, then this army will be completely stimulated.
"My general, your suggestion is very good, in a word, with these elite veterans of the German SS, I don't believe that there will be no Italian army that can fight and dare to fight, we will do it after the Polish campaign, today we must Xiao Qinghua and the Polish army in the eastern half of the city, and tomorrow all occupy Warsaw."
"As you wish, my commander...... Ha ha....... ”
……
Ministry of Defence in London, UK:
The radio on the wall in the war hall is broadcasting the latest news.
"Now broadcasting is a new war report, the German Wehrmacht at noon today, released the latest war report, the German SS First Panzer Army has completely cut off the retreat of more than one million troops in eastern Poland, this million Polish troops have been completely surrounded by Germany, for the heroic and invincible German ** team, the elimination of them is only a matter of time, at the same time, my sacred, invincible SS First Panzer has captured the Polish capital Warsaw, the Polish presidential palace has fluttered the German flag...... Touching ......"
Why do you always love to smash things! With a wave of MacArthur's hand, a white coffee porcelain cup slammed into the radio on the wall, and it fell apart, and the horn was silent.
"Liar...... How can it be...... Poland had 300,000 anti-encirclement troops, and 70,000 German SS troops could repel them,...... This is impossible...... In addition, Warsaw City also has more than 100,000 reservists and militias,...... The SS, how many men there were, how many troops could be used for the offensive, you know, it was a street battle in the city, and the SS was capable of occupying Warsaw in half a day...... That's a big joke, isn't it...... I'm sure it's a scam. ”
Churchill's face was gloomy, he took a hard puff of his cigarette, and then looked at the white coffee porcelain cup on the ground with great regret, this set of coffee porcelain cups was Jingdezhen porcelain purchased by Churchill people from China, which was very valuable, and was ruined by MacArthur, and Churchill could only curse MacArthur in his heart.
"Yes, I very much agree with General MacArthur's analysis, it is absolutely impossible for an Panzer Army to face 300,000 Polish troops and attack Warsaw, not even God, I'm sure the Germans are lying, Hitler, this damned liar, why didn't he die, oh my God, punish this damned liar."
The French Charles de Gaulle was also of the same fiery character, and he jumped up from the chair he was sitting on and began to shout:
"I've long since seen through that damned mustache, damned liar in Germany, who thinks he can fool us with a false war report? That's a dream, so I'm going to send a telegram to ask President Bokan and ask him to tell me the specific situation of the current battle, and I won't understand. ”
De Gaulle still had to be sober and knew that he would send a telegram to inquire about the situation, but Montgomery's words hit de Gaulle's mood.
"General de Gaulle, I must remind you that our correspondents have been calling the Polish headquarters for four hours in a row, and they have not come to us to report until now, which means that our radio station has not yet been in contact with the Polish headquarters, which means that we have lost contact with the Polish headquarters for four hours."
When Churchill heard this, his eyes widened and he shouted furiously at Montgomery:
"General Montgomery, this is your dereliction of duty, don't you know that it is important for us to keep in touch with the Polish headquarters? You don't report such important information, this is a serious dereliction of duty, and it is very shameful for a soldier. ”
Montgomery's kind reminder caused Churchill to roar, he really wronged Montgomery, the radio station of the Ministry of Defense, Montgomery is now a small "Iron Division" Major General commander -- the commander of the British 3rd Division, he can manage the radio station of the Ministry of Defense, whether Churchill wants to shift the responsibility to Montgomery or is confused.
Eisenhower saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly played a round.
"Mr. Churchill, General Montgomery cannot be blamed for this, it was our negligence, just thinking about analyzing the situation of the war, we didn't even care about such a big thing as the loss of contact with the Polish headquarters, it was really negligence, according to the current situation, even if the Germans lied, we can be sure that our Polish allies are in big trouble, and I suggest that we immediately send someone to investigate the situation......"
Buckingham Palace:
"Princess...... Princess......"
A maid ran into Princess Windsor's boudoir in a panic, waving the newspaper in her hand as she ran, and it seemed that the maid had important news for Princess Windsor to read.
"What's the matter! In such a panic, could it be that the sky is falling? ”
The maid hurriedly handed the newspaper in her hand to Princess Windsor and said, "...... (To be continued.) )
