October 8, 1966.

This is a day that will be remembered forever by history, a day that will never be forgotten in the memory of most people.

War finally befell England on this day.

At 7:00, the long-planned "New Sea Lion Plan" finally kicked off.

Countless planes appeared in the sky in black pressure, and countless missiles roared out from the ships. However, the goal of all forces was not Plymouth as previously imagined by the Allies, but:

Easton!

It was a shocking and unimaginable scene, when the missiles and bombs landed on the land of Easton, the Allied command reacted completely and fell into complete chaos.

God, they were fooled, every single one of them was deceived by the Germans! The Germans never saw Plymouth as their real target, and the Allies were fooled around by the Germans, who put all their main forces in damn Plymouth!

It was messed up, the Allied command was in chaos, and the British Fenton government was in chaos.

In Easton, they had not arranged much defense at all, and if General Gandra had not insisted on placing a US Marine and a brigade of British government troops there, there would have been only a few unreliable police forces in Easton.

The Allies, mired in chaos, were unable to find a proper response. At this point, their only hope was that Easton's defenders would work a miracle for them.

But miracles don't happen every time.

At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Jenson, the commander of the American forces in command in Easton, and Colonel Torros, the commander of the British government forces, were far more flustered than their superiors.

Bombs fell on Easton's land one after another. The flames and explosions were enough to drown out everything, and they had no idea what was going on.

Even when the Allied commanders convened a military meeting a few days ago, they were not informed of their participation. In the eyes of the Allied command, Easton had absolutely no chance of being attacked.

But now all the impossible has happened.

The imreliable shore defenses were soon devastated, and the Axis forces did not seem to have any intention of landing immediately, and they were still persistently grooming the enemy's positions again and again.

They should use the most relaxed and enjoyable way to achieve the combat goal.

One after another, calls for help reached the Allied headquarters, but unfortunately they received only one reply: hold on, no matter what, until reinforcements arrive.

Such orders have been given countless times by both the American and British commanders, but the final outcome is actually clear to everyone.

In all fairness, though. The Allied command did its best, and they quickly sent the U.S. Navy warships "President" and "Texas Cowboy" and a large number of air forces to reinforce them.

Unfortunately, the reinforcement deployment was carried out too hastily. The entire strategic rhythm of the Allies in Britain was completely disorganized as the offensive unfolded without warning.

The "President" and the "Texas Cowboy" did not dare to get too close to the battlefield, and although they were closest to the battlefield, their strength was still too weak for the well-prepared Axis forces. Therefore, these two American warships did not have any effect on the battlefield.

And those Allied fighters who were ordered to go to war. They can't do anything about what is in front of them. Hordes of Axis fighters. And the constant appearance of missiles in the air is too powerful for them, who are also not prepared in the slightest.

As for the missile defense deployed by the Allies, the same amount is the same, and they are powerless against the war situation!

Lieutenant Colonel Jenson and Colonel Torus were also constantly talking on the phone, asking about each other's condition, but all they received was gloomy news.

From 7 a.m. onwards, the bombing never stopped. From 8 o'clock onwards, signs of the Axis coalition preparing for a landing were already becoming more and more apparent.

"We don't know when the road is about to stop, we don't know for sure." In a telephone call from Colonel Taurus to the Allied command, he said: "The force is so weak that we don't even know where the enemy will choose to land. Yes, you have to understand where we are. General Gandra, Easton could fall into the hands of the enemy at any time and at any time. ”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time before General Gandra's voice came again: "Colonel. I am well aware of your current situation, but no matter how difficult it is, I ask you to overcome it, and this is related to the final course of the whole war. I will do everything I can to provide you with reinforcements, but I also ask that you do not give up until the last moment. ”

"General, I can guarantee that we will not give up until the last moment......," Colonel Torus made a soldier's promise, but then he added: "However, I also hope that you will understand that when the tide of war is irretrievable, I may choose the path I least want to take." ”

General Gandra certainly understood what kind of path Colonel Taurus was talking about......

When the phone hung up, the landing of the Axis forces was inevitable......

It was 8:20 a.m. on HMS Black Forest.

"Ready to land!"

"Prepare for the landing!"

Voices continued to sound, and countless soldiers completed preparations on the landing ship.

Romeo took a deep breath, and as a member of the royal family, he was extremely grateful to the Axis General Command for entrusting him with the glorious task of being the first to land.

The exile of Her Majesty the Queen was a great shame for all the members of the royal family, and they even thought that they would never be able to return to British soil, but the appearance of Baron Alexon made the impossible possible.

They successfully launched a counterattack in Germany itself, and successfully launched a counterattack in the Middle East and North Africa. And finally succeeded in opening the curtain of the landing in the British operation.

Although the war had just begun, everyone, including Romeo, had already seen hope of victory.

One after another, the landing craft rushed towards the predetermined target at high speed, and the soldiers of the British Royal First Division on the ships could not see much expression on their faces. But their hearts were as excited and urgent as Romeo's.

They're about to set foot on their own land, and they're about to go home!

Yes, homecoming, this goal has been an inspiration to each and every one of them from the very beginning!

"God bless Queen, I wish her a long life, God bless Queen! often victorious, Mu Rongguang; Fu people's hope. The heart is happy; Governing the country, Wang Yunchang; God save the Queen! Yang Shenwei, Zhang Tianwang. Protect the royal family, annihilate the enemy, and cleanse it with one drum. Break the conspiracy and destroy the traitorous party. sweep away the chaotic alliance; Let's look up. God save the Queen! ”

The song of "God Save the Queen" suddenly came out of the mouth of one of the soldiers, and then more and more soldiers joined in the chorus.

In the midst of the powerful attacks of the Axis armies, in the midst of the artillery fire of the enemy's sporadic counterattacks, the singing sounded so loud and neat.

God Save the Queen - God Save England!

As we approached the shore, the hatch of the landing craft snapped in, and countless soldiers rushed out in unison, the singing being replaced by the sound of a majestic charge.

God Save the Queen - God Save England!

Her Majesty's army landed with little resistance and was brought in with a large amount of supplies. The beachhead was consolidated at the first time.

When Romeo's footsteps set foot on the land of Easton, he suddenly felt his nose sour. This moment used to be only seen in dreams.

Yes. The war has just begun, and the war is far from over, but what does it matter? At least he had seen that the door to victory was opening.

"Colonel, Company A and Company B have taken the lead in attacking operations."

"Very well, let them maintain the offensive posture and order the follow-up troops to go on the offensive as soon as possible." Romeo didn't see any special expression on his face, as a commander, he had to keep his calm in front of his subordinates: "At the same time, report to Field Marshal Rommel and Sir Rosen that the first phase of the 'New Sea Lion Plan' has been completed, and we will devote ourselves to the second phase. ”

Romeo was still a rookie in the British Royal Army when the First Division was first established, but the brutal war made him grow into a real soldier step by step, rather than the royal child who was full of unrealistic illusions about war before.

Such a change would only occur during the war years.

The same is true of the Queen's soldiers, who understand the cruelty of war even better than Romeo, and who know how to take the last blow of victory.

On the way forward, Weymouth was stationed with units of the British government, close to the Queen's army. And in Dorchester, it was the American troops stationed at a greater distance.

In the original battle plan, the Axis command formulated a plan to attack Weymouth first, completely stabilize the beachhead, and then gradually continue to march to Dorchester.

Romeo, however, thought that the Axis command had come up with a different view: attack Dorchester first!

"Fight the American drama, isolate and win over the rebels." To this day, the British officers of the Queen's Army still refer to the Fenton government's forces as "rebels": "Although attacking Dorchester first did not correspond to our plan and would make it more difficult, it could shake the rebels and cause them to surrender, which in turn would affect the rest of the rebels." ”

Rommel, who received the call, barely hesitated for a minute: "Colonel Romeo, your battle plan has been approved." And I grant you special authority to make your own judgment in any situation you feel you should, without having to report to Command. ”

Rommel put down the phone, and then said to Sir Rosen, who was beside him, "The eaglet has finally grown up, hasn't it?" ”

Sir Rosen smiled: "The eaglet will never grow up in a cage, and it will only grow up when it soars in the sky and experiences the most brutal natural environment that it will truly grow into the most powerful bird of prey in the sky." ”

And Romeo is undoubtedly the eaglet that has grown up......

．．．．．．

At Dorchester, Lieutenant Colonel Jenson was once again stunned. He never imagined that the enemy would attack Weymouth first, but attack Dochesi's forehead.

Hell, the British, is there some secret deal between them and Taurus? He angrily reported the situation to General Gandra. and raised his suspicions about Colonel Taurus.

It's just that General Gandra's judgment seems to be more than a notch stronger than him: "Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel Taurus has nothing to doubt, the enemy is just thinking of forcing him to surrender in this way." And I believe that as long as Dorchester cannot hold on, Colonel Taurus will definitely surrender. ”

"General, it's hard for Dorchester to hold without reinforcements."

The truth of his subordinates made General Gandra silent for a long time: "If that is the case, then I approve you to retreat." Abandoning Dorchester, even, has the option of surrendering. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Jenson sighed deeply. What could he do? There was only one Marine Corps he could command. And he was even more convinced that even if reinforcements could arrive in time, it would be impossible to stop the enemy's attack with those meager forces.

Perhaps retreat was the only option he had......

．．．．．．

The speed of the advance of the British Royal 1st Division was astonishing.

A large number of tanks and armed personnel carriers continued to pass by the road, and the information that had been transmitted from London was of great use at this time. The Coalition commanders were fully aware of the road from which the road was nearer, safer, and easier to advance for the most part.

They don't even have to worry about what they will be attacked.

And all this must be thanked to one person: Baron Alexon! If it weren't for his efforts. Without his intelligence, the coalition would never have advanced so smoothly.

Although he did not stand by the side of the soldiers, his influence was everywhere.

The vanguard appeared in Dorchester as quickly as possible, and the soldiers of the American Marines let out loud complaints and curses, and they were in exactly the same mood as Lieutenant Colonel Jenson at the beginning, what were these damn Britons going on in their heads, why did they inexplicably preempt Dorchester?

But swearing and cursing, the grim situation in front of them still had to make them fight with 120,000 spirits.

Compared to the fierce queen army. The strength of the American forces was too weak, especially with the barely prepared fortifications and sporadic artillery fire. They don't have much confidence to resist such a ferocious attack from the enemy.

Lieutenant Colonel Jensen had no intention of giving up, he was an American officer, and he would never allow himself to abandon Dorchester, the pride of a soldier, without going through a fight.

He commanded the battle with all his might, and did his best to keep the few forces in his hands as close as possible to the enemy, even though he had already known the outcome of the worst of the situation.

The American soldiers also worked very hard, and after getting through the initial panic, they began to organize a resistance that might not seem particularly strong, but was very conscientious.

Romeo, who appeared in Dorchester for the first time, realized more clearly from the performance of the American army that it is by no means as easy to defeat all the enemies as imagined, and the enemies are not so vulnerable. And such an enemy also inspired him to have a strong fighting spirit.

There's nothing more satisfying than defeating a stubborn enemy.

Romeo quickly threw his troops into the assault on the main positions, and he was always on the front line to direct the battle.

The Axis air forces were also constantly in the skies, providing reliable support to the ground forces. The English city of Dorchester was completely immersed in the hustle and bustle.

Everybody's making an effort, whether it's British or American. But war is not won only by bravery. Compared with the British army that was attacking on the opposite side, the strength of the American army was too weak.

After half an hour of fighting, the American forces had been forced to abandon several important positions, which made Dorchester even more critical.

And those reinforcements are even more far away.

Lieutenant Colonel Jensen knew that there was nothing he could do, even if he wanted to continue fighting to the end, but the cruel reality made him have to know one thing, continuing to resist would only kill everyone here.

Lieutenant Colonel Jensen sighed softly, and then gave the order to evacuate.

Dorchester – This English city became the first English city to return to Her Majesty's Majesty! Her Majesty's flag once again appeared over the city.

And at this moment, looking at the fluttering flag, Romeo suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry. So many days of hard work, so many days of hardship, isn't it for this glorious moment?

He tried to calm his emotions: "Report to General Command that Dorchester is under our control and that we will launch an attack on Weymouth. God save the Queen, God save England! ”

God Save the Queen - God Save England!

Cheers rang out from the mouths of every British soldier, and all of them burst out of their emotions.

Victory - Advance to a new victory until all the lands are recovered!

God Save the Queen - God Save England!

No matter how much time has passed, all will remember their exploits:

They are the defenders of this land of England!

They are the eternal pride of England's history!

It was October 8, 1966, and on that day the horn of the counterattack had been sounded!

It was October 8, 1966, and the moment of co-prosperity had arrived!

It was October 8, 1966, and on that day the curtain of victory had been opened! .
