Chapter 774： Cannon fodder on the line of defense

"Germans, stop." At this time, on the other side of the anti-tank trench, the officers in the command headquarters were under the greatest pressure.

The peaceful river Thames divides London into two, which also gives them great conveniences. For example, they have been desperately digging trenches these days, mobilizing the people of London to come and support, and finally dug out one. Wonderful anti-tank trenches.

And this anti-tank trench is the proposal of Paresy Hobert, who is also in charge of defending London at this time.

It can be said that this is not a good job.

The strength of the German tank forces is obvious to all. Who can stop the German tanks from attacking? No one dares to pat his chest and say that he is sure.

If the Germans did not land, Britain could still toss twice. Now, the Germans landed and the powerful German regiment came up. In this case, the British ending is obvious.

Hobart has always been marginalized in the British team. He proposed the tank application plan, which was despised by a group of old antiques. Now, the facts have proved that his proposal is correct, but he is still the one who is excluded, the foresighted prophet, almost always tied to The fate of burning to death on the pillar.

However, Churchill activated him, even if Churchill was not satisfied with Hobert, but at this time, what Britain needed was a commander who could fight, especially someone familiar with tank tactics.

From this perspective, it is absolutely correct to activate Hobert. After all, the founders of the German Blitz were all Hobert’s students. Although Hobert was reactivated, the stage left for Hobert to play is very small.

The new armored division is in training, and the new tanks they need that can compete with the German Panther 3 tanks are still far away, and now, the Germans are about to hit the British capital London!

In this case, Hobart was unexpectedly welcomed and became the leader of the London Defender. At the meeting, the senior officials of the various armies almost praised Hobart. Now, only the people who are most familiar with tank tactics are there. Can lead everyone to win this counter-tank war!

These statements made it impossible for Hobert to refuse, so he became the commander of the garrison here.

However, Hobart knew that those people didn't want to be commanders because they wanted to evacuate whenever needed!

His Majesty the King had left overnight, and all the members of the royal family had also left. I heard that the next step was Churchill and others. When Churchill left, the high-ranking officers of the army also followed.

And myself, as the commander of the London garrison, it is impossible to leave, either victory or death.

As an older officer, Hobart had already figured it out. Life and death are just one thing, and now, all he needs is to defend his position.

On the day the Germans arrived, Hobert came to inspect from the headquarters in London. Now, it is the army commander here, Harold Alexander, who is reporting to him what he is going to do during the day. At this time, he is the new The commander of the British First Army.

The entire First Army, with a number of up to 200,000, is now all distributed on the defense line in southwest London. Their task is to firmly guard the front here.

Of course, to be more clear, they are just cannon fodder.

Once the Germans launch an offensive, they will definitely be covered by a round of unbearable artillery fire. The Germans' firepower is quite dense, not to mention that the sky is still German.

With the landing of Germany in Plymouth, the German air force is also constantly transitioning. Up to now, Germany has transitioned to more than 800 fighters in Britain. These fighters firmly guard the air dominance of the battlefield.

The British Spitfire suffered heavy losses every time it took off. Although they were not reconciled, they could only watch the air supremacy on the battlefield, and fell into German hands little by little.

Those second-line Stuka, HS129, can shuttle back and forth, constantly destroying targets on the ground.

Seeing that the German tanks are about to attack, and now, the anti-tank trench constructed by Hobert single-handedly played a very effective role!

It is impossible for the German tanks to cross the trenches!

Now, it is mainly time-consuming, which is good for the United Kingdom. When the support from the United States arrives, they will not have to cower so much. I heard that the tanks supported by the Americans have sailed on the Atlantic Ocean and will soon reach the British mainland!

When tanks are available, Britain can fight back as a local counterattack, and it is not impossible to drive the Germans from its own territory.

"Let's not take a chance either." Hobert said: "Our trenches can only delay the actions of the Germans, but cannot completely stop them. The Germans will definitely try their best to attack us. We must do it at any time. Be prepared. Once the battle begins, it must be an extremely tragic battle."

This is a nationwide war. In such a war, the soldiers who were on the battlefield at the beginning have little chance of surviving. Now, the opposite is the Germans. It can be said that in the German offensive, It will start soon, it must be extremely violent, and on your side, there will be heavy casualties.

Faith, at this time, firm belief is the most important thing.

In the dark night sky, little stars, a waning moon, illuminating the earth.

Suddenly, on the opposite side, the sound of a tweeter sounded.

"Listen to the soldier on the opposite side, don't work for the Windsor family anymore! Now that you are fighting in blood, your king has shamefully fled from London. He gave up his vows and abandoned you!"

In the darkness, everything was silent, and the voice on the other side was so clear.

"What, the king has left London? At first, the king said that he would live and die with London!" Suddenly, someone here exclaimed.

"To the end, there is no way out. Look at France and Poland. You should know that the rebellious Poland no longer exists. France that obeyed Germany still exists. For Britain, surrender is the most important thing. Good choice!"

"Think about it, you surrendered, what harm would it do to you? The people under our German rule have a higher standard of living. Now France, the people’s living standards have also improved a lot! Only the ruling class of the country will refuse Surrender, once they surrender, they will not be able to enjoy all the privileges they have now!"

"Wake up, put down your weapons, come here, there is a better life here, waiting for you!"

The sound was very loud, it was definitely a super tweeter, and it even floated backwards for several kilometers. The command here could hear it clearly.

Suddenly, the expression on Hobert's face became serious: "Harold, immediately set up a supervising team and patrol on the front line. Those who shake the military will be shot on the spot!"

The Germans are really black! Actually dare to play yin. 74108
