Now Montgomery finally knew what it was like to be caught in a street fight. His forces fought all afternoon in Norwich and left 3,000 dead bodies on the outskirts of the city, but they failed to attack the city.

At this time, he knew how terrible the Germans showed in the first Norwich attack. What he was terrified. He spent the afternoon with an outer defense line that had not yet been able to break through. The Germans robbed the British team last time. It only took 1 hour and 23 minutes.

Suddenly he had an urge to scold others, and wanted to yell at the intelligence personnel responsible for the German combat effectiveness assessment! He really wanted to catch all the senior officials and kick them, and then asked them what it was like to indulge the German rearming!

There was a trace of admiration in his mind, along with the urge to curse and to beat. He even admired Charles de Gaulle who had boarded the ship to the United States. He admired that he dared to counter such a German force so many times.

Of course, if you go deeper to explore his heart, you can even find the emotion of envy. He envied those who possessed such a force, eager to sit in the headquarters like Lunderstedt, and let such a powerful army destroy the city and fight against it.

Soon the two sides once again fought fiercely at night, and the British army fought against the Germans all night long. As a result, when the next day dawned, the British army still had nothing to gain in Norwich.

The German a group army will naturally not sit still. The reinforcements mobilized by Lundstadt began to gather near Norwich. At 8:15 in the morning, the Germans on both wings launched the first counterattack, encircling the British army and cutting into Norwich. In the suburban forces, about 7,000 British soldiers surrendered at noon, and the British attempt to attack Norwich was completely bankrupt.

But Britain was not without gains. Later that day, the Germans gave up Great Yarmouth under strong pressure. The city became the first British city to be recaptured from the German controlled area by the British defenders. This move slightly regained a little confidence in the British government. Prime Minister Churchill also delivered a famous "From Bunge to Great Yarmouth" speech, which was subsequently world-renowned.

"General, the Germans counterattacked in Norwich, our army collapsed across the board, and are now on the way back to Bunge. If the Yarmouth troops do not shrink back to the Lowestoft area, there may be a problem." The adjutant stared. The map said uncomfortably.

Montgomery shook his head and sighed: "You are wrong, it is not possible that there will be a problem, it will inevitably be a problem. Now they can stay there. Once the weather improves, the Germans can dispatch their air force to cover their ground troops and surround Lowestoft. Once Lowesto Fute is caught in the encirclement. Can the Yarmouth forces survive alone? "

"Then ... General, we should let the Great Yarmouth troops retreat back to Lowestoft! Anyway, we can strengthen Lowstoft's defense ..." The adjutant quickly advised: "Otherwise we will lose Lowestoft." Swift. "

"If we do this, then we must not only lose Lowestoft, but also Bunge, Ipswich, Aldeburgh, Bailey St Edmunds!" Montgomery smiled bitterly. Said.

The lieutenant froze for a moment, then looked at Montgomery: "How is this possible?"

"The King just commended and awarded me the British Empire War Medal that had just been customized ... The Prime Minister delivered a speech from Bunge to Great Yarmouth on the streets of London. They regarded this counterattack victory as an inspiration. An important milestone for the people to continue their resistance. If we withdraw from Great Yarmouth when they have just called out Britain to win, can I still retain the position of commander in chief? "

He pointed to the map and said: "Once they drove me away, no matter what fool he took office, he will be forced to attack across the board under the dual pressure of the Prime Minister and the King. By that time, we are really finished!"

"They still have to do this at this time? Joke about the future of the British Empire?" The adjutant couldn't believe his ears. They were fighting desperately in the front, and the group of gangsters in the back was still making a mess for the face and mess. What is the reason for the worsening situation on the front line?

"The reason is very simple! The first is to show the United States, let the aid and support continue; the second is to show the colony, so that India and Canada can feel at ease; the third is to show the public to let the native British people War is more confident. "Montgomery stretched out three fingers, and one of his generals saw these three points. The abacus in the hearts of the group of adults behind would only be more effective, and the frontline troops lost three or fifty thousand people. For those high-ranking lords, it ’s just a number.

Sadly, like the soldiers who are fighting **** on the front line, they are only a pawn, but the soldiers are pawns that can be sacrificed at any time. Chess players can't bear to let go easily. And if you want to continue not to be regarded as an abandoned child, you have to conscientiously send all the troops you have trained with one hand to the front line to die.

"Then what do we do now? Can't think of a way to withdraw Great Yarmouth's troops? That's exactly 20,000 people!" The adjutant asked distressedly.

Montgomery waved irritably: "If I want to secure my position, I will not only withdraw those troops, but also fill in another 20,000 people! It is best to make Great Yarmouth the second Norwich, that's the way. perfect."

"General!" The adjutant froze, blurting out: "Can't do this."

"Yes, I know I can't do this. If I do this, the 7th Army will be completely finished. If the 7th Army is finished, our situation will be more difficult." Montgomery seemed to be talking to himself: "But What should I do to make Great Yarmouth hold on for more than 3 days? "

Silence, all that remains of the British frontline command is terrible silence.

...

Several British soldiers with their hands raised stared at the two former comrades who had fallen, and then looked at the young German platoon leader with an assault rifle in his hands full of scars.

"Enough! Few of you, send these surrendered British soldiers to the prisoner of war camp behind!" The door of the assault gun was opened, and the captain of the assault gun named Lalde opened the hatch. The young platoon shouted loudly.

Several German soldiers quickly rushed to **** the British soldiers who had lost their weapons and were frightened to the rear. About dozens of British captives, Cui head lined up in a row, passing by the young platoon leader who was still carrying an assault rifle.

"Smoking?" Lalde reopened a pack of French cigarettes, and pulled out a hand to a young comrade. The platoon leader carried the assault rifle behind him, and took the old friend's cigarette to his mouth.

"I brought 14 people, 15 of me. They killed my men and dared to laugh at me ..." The young platoon leader murmured, lit the cigarette and found a big stone to sit on Go on. At this time, of the dozen soldiers he brought, the remaining 7 people all came around and stood beside him in a small circle. .

"Smoking!" Lalde was no nonsense. He took his cigarette and started to circulate. Seven people each took one, and two cheeks took two. Soon the soldiers who survived the battle in the battlefield began to squat together and swallow the clouds, and then forgot the comrades who died in a few minutes, and began to laugh and celebrate their victory.

Ralder walked back to his assault gun, looked at his head to help him alert the surrounding gunner, and then climbed onto this low assault gun and drilled into the narrow command cabin. He sat in the position of the captain, and then looked at his men: "Drive, go back to the camp to replenish ammunition, I heard that the British suspended the attack, I don't know what the **** I was thinking."

"We are not the generals above. It is enough to fight every encounter." The gunner said with a smile. Their assault guns were temporarily opened to look at them, and then they played a role in turning the tide. This is not accidental, but the reason why elite troops can be called elite troops.

These soldiers have integrated how to fight into their souls. They sniff their noses to smell the dangerous smell. They can squint their eyes to feel the direction of the enemy ’s attack, so this assault gun gave up the simplicity of shelling. Mission, and then communicated with the frontline troops and rushed here to fight a beautiful blockade.

Then there was amazing news from the headquarters of the A Group Army. The British attack troops were surrounded by armored forces on both sides of the German army, and thousands of troops surrendered.

If Lundstedt does not order a counterattack at this time, his group army commander will come to an end, and the A group army will immediately launch a counterattack. Later that afternoon, the British army attacking Great Yarmouth will be surrounded, but Because of the weather, the German Air Force still has no way to deploy its own fighter jets on this day, and can only watch its army troops fight **** on the front lines.

However, the A group army did not disappoint Akado, nor did Lundstadt disappointed. They held on to most of their defensive positions, and even lost only one town in the rainy days-Great Yarmouth. .

On this day, the British Navy Queen Elizabeth shelled the German pontoon artificial dock, causing the sinking of two requisitioned civilian fishing boats in Germany and destroying several German coastal defense positions in the southern area of ​​Buckton. In addition, a French heavy cruiser was wounded, resulting in the death of 11 people in the Vichy French Navy, and these 11 people became the first soldiers killed in Vichy French World War II and were permanently recorded in history.
