Chapter 304
Rundstedt found that it was only fifty kilometers from London, and the German army, which was accustomed to war, could not be defeated.
"The British troops on the front suddenly became well-trained, and their tactical movements and tactical literacy were no worse than those of our army.
No prisoners have been captured yet, but I'm sure these troops are well-trained regular troops, not the ones we met the other day. β
Rommel has been having a very bad time lately, or rather he has had very bad luck.
He and Guderian, the commander of the 6th Division, went hand in hand, but Guderian was always able to break through the British positions one step ahead of him.
Rommel had plenty of ammunition, well-equipped, and supposedly elite fighters.
But it just can't take the British position on the opposite side.
It was easy to take the lead once the day before yesterday and advanced five kilometers in one day.
And Guderian, during the day, was pushed back by two kilometers from the British counteroffensive.
While he was thinking about how to laugh at Guderian, during the night, Rommel's 7th Division was crushed by the British troops rushing from the flank.
Those British troops are very capable of fighting, and they are super combative.
It is not simple for the army to carry out a successful night raid. As soon as the battle began, Rommel felt that something was wrong.
How could the National Guard, which had been hastily formed and trained for two or three months, have this level of tactics just with the British army?
But doubts are doubts, and the battle still has to be fought.
That is, the 7th Division is well-equipped and has capable personnel. After a night of fierce fighting, the British army was finally repulsed.
However, winning the war is winning, and the face is saved. But counting the casualties was enough to make Rommel's heart bleed.
More than a third of the casualties and almost half of the equipment were lost.
If it weren't for the FΓΌhrer's confidant, this achievement would have been enough to send him to court-martial.
"I also feel that the British army opposite us has changed. They were more like professional soldiers than a makeshift organization and training of the National Guard. β
Rarely, Guderian was also on Rommel's side.
"Opposite me, the combat effectiveness of the British army has also increased significantly. Yesterday our front was forced to move back by 800 meters. "It was Feng who spoke. Bork.
The rest of the division commanders also spoke out one after another, describing the troubles they encountered.
"Commander, we can ask the Ming to continue the war.
Their aircraft bombed, and the deterrent to enemy artillery was very strong. β
"That's right! We need the Air Force. β
Rundstedt didn't speak, he knew that Ribbentrop was arguing with the great Ming Dynasty.
Daming didn't want to continue to participate in the war, and now except for some transport ships leased to the Germans, the rest of the warships were almost withdrawn.
In their words, they are conducting blockade operations in the North Atlantic. The warships were all transferred to deal with the merchant ships from the United States.
The Ming Navy said so, and the Germans had no choice. After all, the main blood transfusion channel for the British now is arms from the United States.
He didn't know that in Portsmouth Port, a large number of British prisoners of war came ashore every night. At the same time, there were also various pieces of equipment captured by the British army.
Because this was originally the equipment of the British army, there was no problem in the supply of ammunition.
Even, the Ming transport ship also brought a large number of arms.
Gibraltar's underground arsenal was built on the scale of a year's siege.
The defenders of Gibraltar held out for less than seven days. The remaining ammunition reserves are scary!
Now, it's all shipped back to England. It's just that the British have to pay a lot of money.
"It's still the big brother's heart is black!
These things, even the people were returned to the British. The Germans have suffered this time! Li Xiu looked at the dense heads on the dock and shook his head helplessly.
To do so is somewhat treacherous.
It's a pity that the eldest brother is a person who only recognizes benefits and does not recognize faith. But then again, that's really what is true about faith between nations.
I have never heard of a nation that lives by friendship.
"Second master, this is sold to the British.
After so many years of fighting, our domestic finances are also tight. You'll have to make a good profit!
Let's rush to London and grab it, the British will hide a lot anyway. Now, let them scour the land themselves, and give them real money and all kinds of precious metals.
Dashuai's hand is really high, really high! Chen Laohu patted his ass admiringly.
"It's also in, I've been suffering for the fourth child over the years.
Let's fight outside, and all the supplies in the back will be handed over to the old four branches.
From the country to the front, thousands of miles away.
Not to mention anything else, how many freighters have been built over the years. We fought in the Mediterranean, thousands of miles away, and there was no shortage of supplies for several years. With this alone, winning the battle is the first merit. β
"I heard that we have begun to build 100,000-ton cargo ships in batches.
Now this kind of 20,000 or 30,000 tons, 50,000 tons of freighters are also outdated.
Moreover, the double-track project of the Suyinshi Canal is also progressing very smoothly. I heard that the person who presided over the work was also a son of a historian.
Also, last month, a nephew and young master of the Zheng family was beheaded on the streets of Quanzhou by order of the fourth master because of his corruption as the director of the Quanzhou Arsenal. β
Chen Laohu glanced at Li Xiu carefully, the nephew and young master in his mouth was the youngest brother of Li Xiu's wife, Zheng.
That is, Li Xiu's brother-in-law!
"That's it for the Zheng family, look at those wastes. One by one, they only know how to smoke, drink, and play with women, but what else do they know?
If it weren't for Zheng Sen, who was a big player, he would have fallen into a second-rate family long ago.
I always feel that Quanzhou is theirs, and even Fujian belongs to the Zheng family. With my eldest brother's temperament, he will tolerate their family like this, which is already considered to be a scruple of the previous relationship.
If the Zheng family continues like this, it will be a matter of time before the war is over.
In the future, your family will have less contact with their family, and the Zheng family will be finished. Li Xiu sighed helplessly.
These children of the Zheng family really don't stand out. No wonder Zheng Zhilong, who has been paralyzed for many years, left the only words before he died...... The Zheng family's anger is exhausted!
Those who have exhausted their qi will have great luck.
The most enviable is the Shi family, as a big family second only to the Li family in the Ming Dynasty. There are really many talents in the clan over the years, not to mention Stilwell, who was promoted to chief of staff.
Let's just say that Shi Danai, who is engaged in railways, is already the deputy minister of the Ministry of Railways. Today, the Eastern European Railway is being built.
Preparing for the future war against Germany is the role of family style.
The historian is a family of poetry and books, while the Zheng family is ...... Robbery of heirlooms.
How can the descendants of bandits be compared with the descendants of scholars.
