ACT414: The "German Stick" Soaring in the Sky
A full week after the lightning invasion of France by the Germans, a scarred destroyer finally arrived in the Shattered Star Zone and informed the French fleet stationed there of the bad news of the attack on the mainland, and the whole fleet was in an uproar! No one imagined that the Germans would be able to bypass and begin a direct assault on the mainland.
What makes the top management feel even more regretful is that there was an opportunity in front of them, but no one cherished it.
Faced with the precarious situation of their hometown, the French fleet's first thought was to return to China immediately to rescue, but their allies, the British, persuaded them to stay and continue to hold the line of defense in the Shattered Star Zone.
The British commander, Lieutenant General Holland, swore that their excellent British agents had identified the Germans' tricks. The other party did use a special means to interfere with the stargate, and there was a brief connection between Saturn and Venus. But this ability was clearly limited, because after that, the Germans never used the same method to reinforce the front from Saturn.
Therefore, the British intelligence services concluded that this technique of the Germans should not be mature enough and required a long preparation time. On the other hand, Germany on the moon lacks sufficient transportation capacity and has limited support for the front line, so the time for this war should be on the side of Britain and France.
In other words, as long as they can continue to hold their posts, then the German forces on the side of Saturn will not be able to effectively reinforce the invading forces on Venus in a short time. When the Royal Navy arrives on Mercury, they will be tasked with helping the French regain control of the universe. At that time, Britain and France could completely combine up and down, and give the Germans another heavy blow by the way.
If they retreat now, it will make the situation worse!
Therefore, under the persuasion of the British allies, the French fleet was able to bear the anxiety in their hearts, and at this time, the German transport fleets trying to smuggle in were discovered at various stargates in the Shattered Star Zone. The appearance of these guys, while confirming the speculation of the British intelligence agencies, also allowed the French to find a target for venting.
"That's a little wrong! Britain and France seem to have fallen for it! ”
On the Star Castle. Zhao, who relied on his technical superiority to control the overall situation, found that the British and French fleets in the Shattered Star Zone had obviously fallen into the trap of the Germans. Many of the German transports that tried to smuggle through the Shattered Star Zone every day did not have much material on board when they set sail from the place of departure, and some even stuffed them with fireworks to try to fool them with the effects of explosions.
In addition, the number is not very large, 30 ships a day, and they go from three stargates in three ways, which is completely bearable for Germany at present.
Long before the start of the war. The number of divine cores disclosed by Germany is 6,500, but Datang's intelligence agency believes that the actual number should be more than 8,000. Later, they occupied Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland, which provided Germany with nearly 5,000 or so pieces.
At least in terms of the number of divine cores, Germany is already on the same level as Britain and the United States! If you can use only 30 low-level divine cores, you can drag hundreds of warships from Britain and France, and this "deal" is not a loss at all from a strategic point of view!
Faced with this situation, Zhao Jian once again kindly reminded the British and French forces. They were fooled, but the stubborn British gentleman still didn't want to believe a guy like Zhao Jian, and even the French chose to continue to believe in the British allies after hesitating for a while. After all, the strength of the other party can be seen for sure, but Zhao Jian can't even be sure whether he is friend or foe.
Helplessly, Zhao Jian could only go with them!
However, at this moment, a new situation caught Zhao Jian's attention.
In order to grasp the latest developments of the battle situation in Venus in real time, Zhao Jian sent his only submarine to Venus to scatter another batch of reconnaissance stations. These things allowed Zhao Jian to watch this fierce and unprecedented Star Wars from a position close to "God's perspective"!
This attack of the German army. The target is not only France on Venus, but intends to press all the Venus Alliances led by France to the ground and beat them all over again. They attacked France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg on Venus at the same time, and even earlier. He also sent troops to attack Norway and Denmark, which were close to Britain and France in the circle of Saturn, to ensure that there were no worries.
In such a large-scale and all-round joint operation of the three armed services, the German army not only fought in a hurry but not in a chaotic manner, and coordinated with a certain degree, but the grassroots combat personnel of all arms of the armed forces were also extremely tough!
In particular, the army and air force, without naval support, can still sweep through the countries of Venus with a devastating force. One division after another of the Anglo-French multinational coalition was quickly routed and crushed by the charge of the German armored cluster and the whistling of the Stukka.
The only hope for the coalition forces, which were almost stunned, was to hold out until the British Navy came to reinforce them. As long as they can regain the supremacy of the universe, the Germans' million-strong army can turn from hungry wolves to fat meat. In order to avoid this from happening, the main force of the new German High Seas Fleet withdrew from ground operations after completing the "kicking the door" and has been waiting for the arrival of the British Royal Navy in low-earth orbit!
And the British did not disappoint their allies, they finally got in touch with the suddenly lost Venus on the third day of the war, officially confirmed the German invasion, and then spent three days of preparation time to assemble a large support fleet.
Because Britain has been shrinking its forces and sphere of influence since the Great Migration, when Venus is attacked, there are a lot of warships on the British side that can be mobilized. At the strong request of Churchill, the Secretary of the Admiralty, Britain decided to strike hard and gathered a large number of elite forces.
The entire fleet consisted of 7 battleships, 6 aircraft carriers, 8 heavy cruisers, 20 light cruisers and as many as 60 destroyers, more than half of the total strength of the navy.
After all, even if the British are very self-assured, they also understand the truth of "cold lips and cold teeth".
If Venus can't hold on, Britain on Mercury will have to face the threat from Germany with its back to the Sun. If the situation really comes to that point, then Britain itself will collapse without the German army to fight!
But before this mighty fleet departed from port, a strange-looking spaceship on the German mainland on the moon had already passed through the stargate to join the German fleet on the Venus side. After this strange guy appeared, he immediately aroused Zhao Jian's strong interest.
Just by looking at the appearance, this ship is simply super obscene! At first glance, it looks like a flying O-stick, and there are two things at the back of the hull that look like oil tanks!
Zhao Jian can basically confirm that this thing is definitely not Germany's latest Bismarck-class battleship, because that ship is still honestly lying in the lunar shipyard, and as for the No. 2 ship Tirpitz, it has not even finished pressing the main turret, and it is impossible to fight now.
So Zhao Jian and they are really curious, what is this "German stick"!? (To be continued......)
