Chapter 409 409 The more funny you are in this book, the less likely you are to die
At the end of August 1938, British troops began to retreat from Constantinople and other Turkish territories, and then on September 1, Russia declared war on Germany.
But after the declaration of war, the Russian army carried out only partial mobilization in the Kiev Military District, and the Petrograd Military District in the north did not even move at all, but only ordered the troops to increase their combat readiness.
After thoroughly understanding the operational readiness of the Russians, Lin Youde ordered to concentrate his troops directly according to the original plan and prepare for a war of annihilation against the British troops on the shore. However, in order to prevent the steel brain pumping, Lin Youde still increased his troops on the front line of the Carpathian Mountains, which directly bordered Russia, and at the same time moved the campaign reserve to the east to Berlin. In this way, although the speed of the reserve to the front line will be slowed down, the safety of the rear will be guaranteed.
On 2 September, Lin Youde ordered the German troops on the front line to begin a counteroffensive in order to hold back the British troops in front of them and prevent them from having the opportunity to move into Dutch territory. On the day of the start of the offensive, the German Army Group North in Hamburg broke through the positions of the British troops in front of it and began to advance towards the port of Bremerhaven.
On the same day, the last remaining fleet of the German Navy sailed from the Baltic Sea to the mouth of the Elbe River through the Guò Kiel Canal and began shelling Ottendorf and Kukeshamn, which were occupied by the British. The British fleet probably feared an air attack and did not come to support.
The Luftwaffe, on the other hand, dispatched all its fast bomber units to carry out multiple waves of daytime bombing of the British Magic Guided Armored Maintenance Center in the city of Bremen, in an attempt to weaken the combat effectiveness of the British Shenji and Zhanji.

Mary? Brigitte faced a very pressing problem: she had to figure out what was happening on the front lines immediately.
For this reason, she has been on guard at the British Army's communications center for two hours.
"Can't get radio contact yet?"
Faced with Brigitte's question, the colonel in charge of communications shook his head: "The radio is full of static noise, and I can't hear any calls at all. The telegraph was also largely paralyzed, and all cable communications were cut off. It doesn't look like something that happened naturally. ”
"You mean, the Germans are jamming our communications?"
"I'm afraid so." The Colonel's expression was very stern, "I think they may have used some kind of high-power signal transmitter to cover all the communication frequencies, and we can't distinguish our communication waves from the useless clutter they create." ”
"Is this possible?" Brigitte was still confused.
"If we simply cut off all wireless communications on the battlefield, the technical difficulty is not great, but the difficulty is to achieve one-way blocking, that is, only block our communications, and keep their communications unblocked."
Brigitte nodded.
She already had a clue.
If both sides are in a state where communication is not possible, then the attacking side that has the initiative in the war will definitely have a greater advantage. The attackers at least knew what was going on and what they had to do, while Bridget and the British generals on the defending side only knew that the Germans were attacking from the magic messages sent by the front-line Senji troops when they were attacked, and they had absolutely no idea what was happening on the battlefield.
The British commanders could not answer any of the three crucial questions of how many enemies had broken through, in which direction the enemy had advanced after the breakthrough, and how fast their advance was.
To make matters worse, they simply can't move their troops now.
"I can only find out about the situation through the magic communication of the Guò War Princesses." Brigitte sighed and looked back at John, the commander of the expeditionary force, who had been waiting behind her without saying a word? Verric, "Your Excellency, do you have any ideas?" ”
"I think we should start retreating immediately, we're almost ready, just take this opportunity to start executing......"
"The Germans have just broken through our front!" Brigitte interrupted John loudly? Verrick's words, "They are more mechanized than we are, and if we don't hold the line, our retreating troops will catch up and be killed and wounded in large numbers." ”
"But if we want to hold the front, it means putting many troops back into the battlefield that are ready to retreat, and the Germans are trying to hold us back with an attack, and our attempt to stabilize the front is exactly what they want! Secondly, we no longer have enough ammunition and supplies to stabilize the line, and our soldiers have only one base ammunition stock for the best supply units, and these units are all deployed in the first line, and if the Germans have really broken through the defensive line, they will probably have been defeated. ”
"Then we must at least form a second line of defense in the direction of the German advance, so that the remaining troops can retreat. In order to form this line of defense, we had to figure out the direction, size, and speed of the German attack. "So I have to send my troops in the direction of the German breakthrough we guessed, and use their magic communications to report back what they see." ”
"Okay, I agree with your decision, but I think we must also send some of the Warriors to contact the troops who are not attached to the Warriors and have been cut off from the higher commands. Most of our divisions deployed in the rear are not equipped with battle girls, and their headquarters may not even know that the Germans have broken through now. ”
Brigitte was stunned for a moment, she realized that John? What Verrick said was what she had been negligent, which made her a little ashamed, but then came an angry emotion - her reason knew that this emotion was wrong, and that it was her own negligence that was wrong, but she still yelled at Verric: "I know! Damn it! Am I going to make such a low-level mistake? ”
The corners of Verric's mouth twitched, but he eventually endured.
"No, you won't. So, make your decision now, we've wasted a lot of time. ”
No sooner had Verrick finished speaking than the sound of the engines of the German bomber group came from outside the house again, and soon the whistling of bombs bursting through the air and the continuous explosions filled everyone's ears.
The young telegraph operator beside Brigitte shrank his shoulders, and his hand, which was adjusting the knobs on the telegraph, became so shaky that he twisted the knob over his head, and the telegraph operator hurriedly pulled the knob back, but turned his head again.
At this time, Brigitte, who noticed this qiē, gently put her hand on his shoulder: "Don't worry young man, I'm right next to you, even if the bomb falls on the ceiling above your head, I can save you." ”
"Thank you, thank you...... But you won't be there all the time. Probably because of the sudden relaxation of the nerves that had been tense, the young telegraph operator showed his vulnerability without reservation, "I want to go home......
"Don't worry, we'll go home." Brigitte patted the young man on the shoulder, "When I get back to London, I'm going to tie up that fat man from Churchill and beat him up." ”

Hans Zimmer frowned and stared at the map in his hand.
"What's wrong?" James in the jeep asked loudly, "Is something wrong?" ”
"Uh...... I think we may have gone the wrong way. Hans looked back at the jeep, "We should turn the other way at the last two junctions." The damn British must have dropped the street sign in a different direction. ”
"Then hurry up and get in the car, let's have a meeting."
"No, all troops have been ordered to move west at all times." Hans Zimmer folded the map in half and put it back in the pocket of his uniform, "The same must be true of the battalion where we are going to give orders. If we turn back, they may not be where they are anymore if we go further west. So we are going to take a new road, to the west, and I am sure that in the villages ahead we can take a road to Kutenholz, and with jeeps we should be able to get ahead of them, after all, most of their troops are used. ”
"Well, you're leading the way, listen to you." James shrugged, "Now get me back to the car, I always feel like it's so fucking quiet around me to get out of this fucking place." ”
Hans immediately trotted a few steps back to the car, and when he got into the car, Wolf, who was in charge of the machine gun in the back seat, said: "Horner is afraid of the invisible British, invisible!" ”
"Shut up!" James started the car, and the distance of the car shook a little as he closed the clutch.
"Hey, light move, you're going to get me out of the car." Wolf grumbled loudly.
"It's none of my business," retorted James, "this car is meant to jump, no matter how light I move!" Shut up, put your machine gun in hand, and shoot me if you see something British, or something that looks like a British. ”
"Actually," Hans hesitated for a moment, but continued, "the problem is that you press the throttle immediately after you close the clutch, and you should wait a moment after you close the clutch before you press the throttle." ”
"Damn, when you accepted the mission, you said you wouldn't drive me!"
"I don't know how to drive, but I've seen people drive it......"
As Hans and James were back and forth, Wolf suddenly shouted, "Hey guys! I seem to see someone in front of me waving a sheet at us - maybe a dress! ”
The other two saw it as well, so James slowed down and Hans picked up his assault rifle.
Soon, the three people in the car saw clearly that it was an aunt about fifty years old waving the sheets, James stopped the car in front of the aunt, and before he could speak, the aunt threw a live chicken into the car.
"Eat! Lads! Here you go, and the eggs! ”
As she spoke, the aunt put a basket of eggs into the back compartment of the jeep.
"Auntie, we are on a combat mission......"
"I know, I know, you can eat it after the battle!" The aunt didn't listen to Hans at all, and stuffed an iron bucket into the back seat, "I made it myself, but it's delicious!" ”
Then the aunt patted the door of the jeep: "Let's go, boys!" Beat those sissies! ”
Hans and James looked at each other, and the latter shrugged his shoulders, and then moved the car again at the urging of the aunt.
Hans turned around and waved goodbye to his aunt, when he suddenly saw an old man who might be his wife's wife come out of the storeroom in a shiny old military uniform, wearing a steel helmet from the German Empire era with the tip of a spear on his head, and an old-fashioned musket in his hand.
"Don't go! Take me! The old man shouted at the car.
Wolf put his hand to his mouth and shouted to the old man, "Go back, old man!" We'll throw it in the face of the British with your share! ”
