The violent explosion caused Lieutenant Gale and others who were running desperately several miles away to pause. They couldn't help but stop and look back in the direction of the checkpoint. It was as if they could penetrate the barriers of time and space and see the two loyal warriors. The scene of his brother, who resolutely pulled out the grenade in the enemy crowd, and died together with the enemy, with flesh and blood flying together, made Second Lieutenant Gale's heart suddenly feel like heart-wrenching pain. <-¡·
Second Lieutenant Gale knew that the situation was very serious, and the enemy would definitely search for his team. Now was not the time to mourn. Looking at the appearance and expressions of his men, he naturally did not want such things to affect his combat capabilities. Although Probably not, he still needs to do something, it's his responsibility as an officer.
Second Lieutenant Gale glanced at everyone and said coldly: "Our brothers have defeated many enemies for us! We must not let them down! Brothers, the situation is very serious now, and we must seize every second. , so that we can jump out of the enemy's hunting range as quickly as possible! Only then can we be worthy of their sacrifice! Otherwise, we will be finished soon!"
Du Pei was a little impatient, and before Second Lieutenant Gale finished speaking, he said: "Second Lieutenant, we are not afraid of death! Whatever you say, we will listen to you!"
Second Lieutenant Gale did not hesitate, spread out a military map on the ground, pointed in the direction of Li¨¨ge, and said to the crowd gathered around him: "Continuing in this direction to the south is the Eisenbourne Mountains, where there are tall trees and dangerous mountains. It's hard to find no matter how many people go in, but I think those Americans know this for sure. On the only way to this place, the searches and searches must be stricter. Moreover, this place is heavily guarded by Americans. Although we can all disguise ourselves to a great extent, when we passed through this checkpoint and encountered each other, the officer¡¯s last question must have been their secret language. But we don¡¯t know this kind of wild secret language. What does it mean for us It seems that I have lost the ability to continue to pretend to be myself."<
??In fact. The situation was even more severe than Lieutenant Gale imagined. When the German Army Headquarters ordered a make-up assault by Otto Skorzeny's SS troops in Germany, it did cause great damage and threats to the entire Allied rear in the early stage, and it contained and delayed many plans to target the enemy. The German military operations can even be said to have achieved impressive results and results. If the German headquarters had achieved these ideal results and decisively withdrawn this elite force. A certain amount of strength could still be preserved, but Hitler did not do so. As Otto Skorzeny said, this is an endless battle. Hitler actually asked them to seize the bridge over the Neuse River and hold on to their counterattack.
The Neuse River Bridge is located in Belgium. It is the only way to Antwerp, and Hitler's plan is to use this elite force to occupy the bridge over the Neuse River, and then send German airborne troops to hold important positions with airborne support, waiting for the arrival of the ground armies.
Of course, Hitler automatically ignored General Eisenhower's thirty-one divisions deployed throughout the Ardennes. Among them, General Ansenhower had sixteen divisions north of the Ardennes and ten divisions deployed beyond. South, although General Eisenhower believed that the huge force he deployed on the front line was sufficient to deal with a possible German attack. But he still placed five divisions behind the Ardennes. In this way, Eisenhower's hundreds of thousands of troops deployed on a narrow front about ninety-five miles long. The regional density of troops is not low.
When Second Lieutenant Gale received an order from Otto Skorzeny from headquarters requesting his troops to assemble at the Neuse River Bridge, Second Lieutenant Gale realized that this was an impossible task. He did not know about other action teams. How to do it, but he thought that if he continued to go towards the Neuse River as planned, not only would he not be able to complete the task, but he would also be seeking death.
In fact, it's not just that. When the commando team launched its operation, the US military command realized that this was a special force of the German army. General commands did not work on this German army. General Eisenhower said at the time: "Since These German devils know us so well, so let's test them with things that everyone in the United States is familiar with. This is our command!" And the outpost that Second Lieutenant Gale encountered before was the one the U.S. military received about the new The command to change the password really made Second Lieutenant Gale and others surface after a try!
However, there are advantages and disadvantages. It is troublesome for the Germans, and it is also the same for the Americans themselves! Since the German commandos, from high-ranking generals to wounded civilians, would make use of them, no one in the entire Allied Forces could believe it during this period. In addition, the Germans would take advantage of the internal contradictions between Britain and the United States. , and created a lot of firefights and frictions. Although it was later revealed that the Germans were pretending to be Germans, it still made the grassroots soldiers of the British and American armies even more hostile.
As for the rear of the Ardennes front line, the consequences of the method of dealing with this sudden attack on the rear of the Allied forces are;There are some important facilities in the rear, so our department is required to cooperate with other troops to immediately launch a search to the west of the Varem line. In the order, any units and individuals encountered must be confirmed. If there is any suspicion, their continued activities must be stopped immediately. .
Although the order only gave instructions on how to act, and the content was not detailed, I think the Allied commanders were not worried about the safety of the entire front, so they just focused the order on the rear of the Ardennes front. Another meaning of the order is that all units have the right to examine, identify, and control each other.
I thought to myself: "I'm afraid the orders received by other troops are the same. It seems that the entire Allied Forces have been convinced by this German!" (To be continued.)
