Chapter 325
On 23 October, an armistice was signed between Germany and England.
The Germans entered London without resistance, and this was the first time in thousands of years that an army had entered London.
The people on the streets of London looked in horror at the German soldiers in steel helmets.
In order to enter the city, the Germans paid a heavy price. In the past six months, the German army suffered more than 600,000 casualties.
This figure, although not comparable to the casualty figures of the French campaign. But for the Germans, it was a heavy loss.
And the Germans were surprised to find that what they thought was the end of the war was not the same thing as the actual end of the war.
Although the British surrendered, a large number of weapons and ammunition were smuggled home by the National Guard during the war.
The sporadic German troops in Britain were still very unsafe.
In the first week of LinkedIn alone, the number of German assassinations exceeded two hundred.
Many of them were shot in the streets.
God knows from which window the flying bullet came from.
The Germans had no way of deciding, so they had no choice but to retaliate on a large scale.
As long as the direction of the bullet is determined, the British men in the entire building will be pulled out and shot in rows. Pay for the lives of the dead German soldiers!
The bloody crackdown, in just one week, killed more than 5,000 people in London.
The bloody crackdown, the shooting in the streets, made London really calm. It's not clean, but it's quiet.
It's just that the British are more and more hostile to the Germans.
The same thing happened in France.
At the time of the fall of France, the Germans had collected guns and ammunition on a large scale. The seizure was a success, and the French people were largely left with no weapons.
But no one could have imagined that those French expeditionary forces didn't know how. Endless sprang up from the Alps!
These people came in groups, a small group of three or five people, and a large group of thirty or fifty people.
The weapons in their hands ranged from rifles to machine guns, and even mortars and grenadiers used by the Ming army.
The latter two weapons, in particular, were simply killers of German patrols.
The grenadier is a small thing, firing about the same amount of ammunition as a small mortar shell.
As often happens, a squad of German soldiers is on patrol. Suddenly, several, or even a dozen shells, fell from the sky.
The German soldiers were blown up on their backs, but they did not even find the shadow of the murderer.
In some places, it's even country roads. There were woods on both sides, and the Germans who pursued and searched often entered the woods and could not get out again.
For this, the Germans also carried out a bloody repression of the French.
But the effect was not very good, and there were still German soldiers being attacked and shot!
The biggest headache was that the French soldiers seemed to have plenty of supplies.
In the six months that the Germans attacked Britain, the French underground resistance guerrillas basically belonged to the stage of vigorous development.
They weren't willing to go to the countryside with black guns, or attack patrols or something.
They even dared to attack German strongholds on their own initiative, and they even had eighty-millimeter heavy mortars in their hands.
What's more, he actually got into the Paris Opera. Taking advantage of a big performance, the guerrillas secretly planted bombs.
When the opera reached its climax, the bomb exploded with applause.
More than 30 German officers were killed on the spot, and twice as many German officers were wounded.
As soon as this incident came out, it shocked the whole of Europe.
The Führer personally ordered that the Germans could no longer appear so intensively on the same occasion. Especially watching opera, this kind of thing needs to be explicitly prohibited, strictly prohibited.
To say, the obedience of the Prussians was leveraged.
The Führer issued an order, and the commander of the French occupation forces issued an order to search for the whereabouts of the partisans.
For a time, the whole of France was in a panic. The Germans began to arrest people with impunity, trying to find a needle in a haystack to turn out those French partisans.
But as a result, after checking for more than half a month, I didn't even find a fart.
In the end, he could only catch a group of French people and shoot them.
The same situation is happening in the Austrian occupation zone, in the Polish occupation zone.
The underground resistance groups are becoming more and more active. There are even some resistance groups that are hiding on the border.
At night, they attacked German strongholds and outposts, and during the day they ran to Spain, Italy, and Switzerland to avoid being attacked by the Germans.
These bug-like people made the Germans very uncomfortable. At the same time, it was necessary to strengthen the defense forces along the border.
More than 300,000 German troops were completely pinned down by guerrilla warfare and could not go to the British battlefield.
Comparatively speaking, the low-level countries of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg have much better law and order.
Perhaps, it has something to do with the fact that they are too weak.
As long as you are weak enough, you won't care what the strong do to you, and they won't resist. will only accept their fate and be at the mercy of the superior.
For Germany, the frontal war was over. But a war with a completely different situation is in full swing.
The Germans, having not yet woken up from the exhaustion of the victory over the British. was forced to get involved in another protracted law and order war!
Similarly, the Ming army was also fighting a war of law and order. It's just that the security war fought by the Ming army is more like training, so that the troops have some experience in urban security operations, rather than really letting them sacrifice their lives to fight!
"Stay in formation and shoot everything that moves. It doesn't matter if it's the elderly, women, or children.
As long as they show hostile eyes, you can set them up on the ground. The old monkey stood at the front of the line and said loudly.
The Swiss have already taken 98 percent of Baghdad's target, and the Kurds in the city are still resisting only a few points in a small area.
The Ming army is not ready to pay attention to them, such a small group of people, all of them are slaughtered and can be exchanged for a few nails.
With the arrival of Ming reinforcements, the Swiss began to enter a period of recuperation. Three months of continuous fighting in Baghdad also exhausted their spirits.
In fact, being able to engage in such a protracted and high-intensity battle is enough to prove that the Swiss are already on par with Germany and Great Britain. At least their will to fight is much stronger than that of the French.
Those old French will only surrender at every turn.
And they are generally carrying weapons, which are not mahogany swords or gossip mirrors, but include various weapons within heavy weapons.
The arrival of the Ming army was to deal a fatal blow to the Kurds and open the way to Mosul.
