Imperial Overlord
: Four hundred and six continued delayed landing
When the Americans were discussing how to help Britain and defeat the German invaders, the German capital Berlin, the head of state Li Le was also studying with his men how to attack the British mainland.
The news that Keitel brought back from the French front made the Führer very dissatisfied. This battle meeting was also held because of this matter.
"My head of state, the army was in chaos on the landing site, and the tanks didn't make it to the shore for two hours... Soldiers crowded together and were killed in batches by British machine gun bunkers."
"The paratrooper's airborne is still in the simulation stage. We can't guarantee what effect it will have." A German army general looked at Keitel who sat down after the speech and said.
The entire landing exercise plan was made very hastily. Originally, the head of state wanted to review the landing preparations of his troops. As a result, the situation looked very bad.
The preparations of the army were a mess, and the navy also did not perform very well. Most of the troops supporting the landing were s-class torpedo boats, and the artillery support was almost equal to zero.
Almost all of the suppressive firepower must be provided by the Luftwaffe. If the weather is bad the next day, the beachhead will only have a few cannons to support the attack of their own troops.
It may be a bit reluctant to say that it is an attack. If the weather is bad, then whether the beachhead troops can defend their defensive positions has become a worrying issue.
As a traveler from the future, Li Le has certainly seen the power of the airborne troops in Normandy, and of course he knows that his German paratroopers will only perform better.
But he could not convince the other German generals to believe this reasoning. It's the same old question, what he knows, people who haven't experienced it won't believe it.
Of course, there are still differences. The Führer was very proficient in naval technology, and the tactics he assigned to the navy were very successful.
Therefore, the army also believes in the paratroopers' combat plan insisted by the head of state, and they are willing to believe that these paratroopers can bring miraculous effects when attacking.
But after they believed this, they found that they still did not dare to send tens of thousands of soldiers to the British mainland to fight - the loss of the landing would be very heavy, so heavy that it would make people collapse.
In the battle of Germany swept across France, the total number of killed troops may not be 100,000. If they attack the United Kingdom, they will have to do a loss of 200,000 or even more than 300,000. No one is willing to bear this.
The head of state's war is getting bigger and bigger, but the army has to pay for the casualties of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. This is not the future that senior generals want to see.
In fact, the reason why the peace talks with the United Kingdom is so marketable among German high-level officials is mostly because the army generals are unwilling to engage in a full-scale war with the United Kingdom.
In Hitler's original script, a few months ago, the British should have honestly surrendered and accepted a decent peace.
However, it is a pity that the British did not surrender, but wanted to fight the Germans to the end. This ending made the German executives feel uneasy, and the script began to evolve in a direction that was not under their control.
"The navy's fleet is now in Brest, and it is unrealistic to expect the fleet to provide suppression of the coastline..." The representative of the navy also raised a very sharp question.
There is only one fleet, and it is still fighting in the direction of Brest. If the Army were to land and fight in a few months, the Navy would no longer be able to cross the dangerous English Channel and rush to the landing site to help.
Without the help of the navy, the German army faced the enemy's artillery fire and attack alone on the landing site, which makes people shudder to think about it.
Li Le looked at his subordinates. This was still a discussion within the Supreme Command. If the real Army General Command and the relevant commanders of the navy were counted, the opposition could only be louder.
He is not annoyed that his subordinates are so opposed to him, because it is these objections that allow him to analyze these battlefield issues from a professional perspective.
Because he came from later generations, what he is best at is in the overall evaluation, especially in the evaluation of the combat capability of the new arms on the battlefield, he has his own tested and correct understanding.
And his own shortcomings are also obvious, that is, his ability to evaluate the overall battlefield is limited, he lacks real military knowledge, and is completely a layman in some aspects.
Given Li Le's real military level, it is probably a bit reluctant to let him lead a battalion of soldiers in the Wehrmacht - he is similar to Hitler in this regard, and he belongs to the kind of decision makers who are high-minded and low-handed.
Because of this, Li Le likes to listen to opinions, and after adding his own understanding, he uses the perspective of later generations to make repairs on the basis of the summary of his subordinates to get a closer answer.
Those successes and cognitions from later generations can only be used as a rest for the conservative estimates of the current German generals. This is Li Le's positioning of his golden finger.
Before Li Le could speak, the imperial marshal Goering on the side spoke up - speaking of the sea lion plan to land in the UK, I am afraid that among the German generals, he is the only one in the best mood.
The Luftwaffe recently annihilated a large number of British air forces due to the British counterattack against Brest.
On the basis of this incident, the Luftwaffe has recently frequently invaded British airspace and achieved quite astonishing results.
Unlike in the past, because the air raids on the British mainland were gradually cancelled, this time Germany dispatched a large number of dive bombers to attack the British coastline.
Stuka once again became the protagonist of the war. Under the cover of fighter jets, the dive bombing of the British coastline achieved very obvious results.
Some construction sites, like fortifications, were found and destroyed. The Luftwaffe was unmanned and killed many British coastal fortifications.
Before the bombing by German aircraft, they visited various factories and transportation nodes in the British inland. Therefore, British anti-aircraft guns are also deployed in cities such as London as much as possible, as well as near related factories.
But this time, Germany was uncharacteristically, the aircraft only attacked near the coastline, which caught the United Kingdom by surprise, and the anti-aircraft weapons did not have time to deploy.
The bombing of the British coastline also caused panic among British high-level officials. The news that the Germans could land at any time made the entire British coast guard nervous.
"My head of state! The Air Force has gained superior air dominance over the landing site! As long as the weather conditions permit, we can cover the landing and expel the enemy's planes and giant ships." Goering's voice was so proud that Li Le could hear it. come out.
Of course, in this proud voice, there is another word that Li Le has to pay attention to - as long as the weather conditions permit!
Yes, the Luftwaffe can be deployed as long as the weather conditions permit. But if the weather does not allow it, the Air Force can only watch its friendly troops being slaughtered on the beach at the French airport.
"It now seems that the Sea Lion plan has to be postponed. The original plan to attack in January is still too hasty." Li Le thought about it and said his thoughts.
He is not Hitler, and he is still far from Hitler's solitary state of mind in history. Li Le felt that he should listen to other people's opinions, which was another advantage he had over Hitler.
It is true that in history, Hitler can be said to be consistent in Germany, and few people dare to disobey what he said. But doing so fostered Hitler's own dictatorship and made national decision-making his own.
Sometimes Yiyantang represents efficiency, but sometimes Yiyantang represents mistakes! The quicker option leads to a point of no return, which can only make the country go further and further in the direction of failure.
On the other hand, it seems that the head of state can make a decision with a single word, but his subordinates are playing tricks of yang and yin.
When the Army treats the Führer's decisions, from time to time it has to give some discounts. Then he didn't dare to tell the truth, and finally solved the problem by deceiving.
That's why, in 1945, the Führer was still looking at the map, imagining that his troops could hold their positions and fight back.
Those troops no longer exist, but they are still marked on the map - if Hitler can still make the right decisions in such a war, it will be a real ghost.
Just because he was afraid that his orders would eventually be violated, Li Le tried not to use the authority of the head of state, but tried his best to persuade the front-line generals to follow his orders.
It seems a little weak after negotiation, not as majestic as Hitler was in those days, but the benefits are not without. With the trust of Xinyue and sincerity, the number of times that the army deceives the superior and the inferior will be less and less~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This will facilitate Li Le to control the real situation and make a correct judgment.
You know, Li Le's biggest golden finger is to use the experience of later generations and strategic vision to analyze the battlefield situation. If the data in his hand is inaccurate, causing his own misjudgment, then the golden finger is tantamount to being obliterated.
After thinking about it, Li Le decided to restrain some arrogance, try his best to have a good relationship with the army, and carry out his own orders, which is the most suitable choice.
"The army has already complained about the exercises in the ice water. It's a bit difficult for them to really fight in the ice water." Thinking of this, Li Le said kindly.
"Yes, sir! If it is possible, in March next year, the Army will definitely be ready." Seeing that the Führer had compromised, Keitel quickly opened his mouth to find a step for the Führer to go down.
As a field marshal within the High Command, Keitel certainly understood the Führer's strategic intentions. The limit of the Army's delay he can tolerate is in March next year.
After this time, if the army still can't launch an attack, then there is no need for the head of state to make a fuss. He, the marshal, also has to find the Junker nobles of the army for an explanation.
