Battle of the Third Reich

"Return to base camp?"

"Yes, you have to prepare quickly!"

"Understood, General!" Hans answered.

Xu Jun said to Mueller again: "Major Mueller, if Colonel Luxembourg’s troops haven’t arrived here after lunch, I’m not going to wait for him. I’m sorry I can’t preside over the Zhu Jie conference. I must go back immediately. Go to the base camp and discuss with the head of state the next battle plan.

Now I appoint you as the acting brigade commander of the 7th Brigade of the 7th Armored Division Infantry and promote you to the rank of lieutenant colonel. After the Colonel of Luxembourg returned, you conveyed my order to the Colonel of Luxembourg, and I appointed him as the deputy commander of the 7th Armored Division. You have to help him lead the seventh armored division. You are here to fix the troops.

Because of our great losses this time, I will ask the Army Command to immediately supplement the 7th Armored Division. The junior officers lost were selected by the surviving non-commissioned officers. The vacancies of the senior officers were taken over by the surviving junior officers. They have proved that they have this ability in the battle. I will give them an appointment letter. Other issues are discussed by you and the Colonel of Luxembourg. Do you understand? "

"Understood, I am very grateful to the General for your trust and promotion. Please rest assured, I will definitely manage the 7th Armored Division with the Colonel of Luxembourg. I will never live up to your expectations of me. I am eager for you Come back quickly and lead us to continue fighting until the day of victory comes." Mueller answered excitedly.

Two levels have been promoted in two days, something that has never happened in the National Defense Force. Mueller felt like he was dreaming. Now Xu Jun has been promoted to the level of God in his mind. Mueller secretly vowed to repay Xu Jun's appreciation and cultivation anyway, even if he was to lose his life for Xu Jun.

After lunch, Rondestadt's plane arrived on time. This is a brand new ju52. In order to let her land, the 58th Engineer Battalion spent two hours pushing out a simple runway with 20 heavy tractors and 80 trucks of various types.

Now Xu Jun and his subordinates are standing by the plane to bid farewell to the officers of the 7th Armored Division. Because this time is to return to the base camp of the National Defense Force, Xu Jun only took Hans, Randolph, Dougan, three people. The two staff officers stayed in the 7th Armored Division and continued their training, while the two servicemen were added to the chores of Mueller's new headquarters.

The soldiers of the 7th Armored Division came to the runway spontaneously to say goodbye to their beloved general after they knew that their commander was leaving. They lined up neatly, and the plane watching the commander slowly left the ground. All the soldiers immediately followed the gun salute towards the plane until the plane slowly disappeared from their vision.

Xu Jun sat in the spacious cabin of ju52 and looked down at the telegrams and various log files Hans had organized for him. He had to reorganize them into a formal report to Hitler before returning to the base camp.

He looked at the file while whispering with Hans about the details. Randolph was sitting in a row behind them, and he was now excitedly watching a team of **** planes shuttle through the porthole. In order to prevent the last forced landing from happening, the base camp dispatched a team of 40 me110 fighters to expedite the fighter group to protect them throughout the whole process. They lined up in a wheel formation and surrounded ju52 tightly.

Dougan was not interested in seeing it. He tilted his head and was asleep in his seat.

After Xu Jun explained some details of the combat report to Hans, he simply threw the report writing work directly to Hans. I thought about the problem while looking at the clouds outside the window, leaving only poor Hans holding a pencil and staring at a pile of documents.

Xu Jun thought hard, how can he make Hitler change the wrong decision, and how can he convince those generals that his suggestion is correct?

He searched in Jack's memory for memories of how Jack had dealt with those Nazi party leaders and senior generals in the past, hoping to find the weaknesses and preferences of those people, so that he could use these to achieve his goals. As the memories of the contact between Jack and the Nazi Party officials showed from the front, Xu Jun couldn't help but laugh.

This guy is really a rogue, did not expect him to behave like this at the regular meeting of the base camp.

That’s fine, if I can’t convince the generals and commanders to support myself, then I will learn this rogue method to “communicate” with the high-level “elites”. If your plan cannot be passed, then your plan I It will disturb it.

Xu Jun took the doctrine and felt relaxed for a while, but he immediately remembered what he should do next if he really succeeded in preventing Hitler’s wrong decision. How can we destroy the British retreat, how can we eliminate them perfectly in Dunkirk, what preparations should be made, where should we attack, how should we fight, what is the current battlefield situation, how many troops can be used On the one hand, these problems were placed in front of Xu Jun, which made him headache. What I need most now is accurate information. Only when I get the current accurate information can I work out my next plan.

"Hans!"

"Yes, General!" Hans replied, lifting his head from his file stack.

"After waiting for the landing, you immediately find me the latest report of the exact location and strength of all the troops of the Army. I also want the reconnaissance report of the Air Force reconnaissance team on the movement of the enemy today. Map of western France."

"Obey, General, actually I can let the pilot contact the ground now and let the ground be prepared before we land."

"That's good, go ahead and let them prepare the most detailed information."

"Got it. General." Hans put down the file and stood up, walking towards the cockpit.

Xu Jun felt relieved and looked at the scenery outside the window leisurely, waiting for Hans' result. After a while, Hans returned to the cabin. He patted Xu Jun's shoulder.

"General."

Xu Jun turned back and asked, "How is it? Have you contacted?"

"General, everything is arranged. We landed in Cologne today, and then rested there for one night. We will take the special train sent by the head of state directly to the mountain cliff castle tomorrow morning, and we can get there tomorrow at noon. The information you urgently need The base camp will send a special plane to Cologne and then directly to the hotel where you are staying. Please rest assured. There are Cologne Garrison commanders and city government officials already waiting for your plane to arrive at the airport. They prepared a grand welcome ceremony."

"Really, then how long do we have to land."

"It should be fast. We have already flown across the French border and can reach Cologne in up to two hours."

Xu Jun nodded and finally let go of his heart. He leaned back on the soft leather chair back and began to close his eyes and relax. Hans sat back in his seat and took a pencil to continue writing his report.
