My Third Empire

Shoot is 35 high! A soldier adjusted the angle of the guide rail and reported loudly. 【First Release】

The ammunition is ready! Another soldier also reported loudly after a while.

Shoot! The commander loudly issued an attack order.

Swish! Swish! Swish! The flames ejected from the tail of the rocket blew up the dust on the ground nearby, mixed with the thick smoke from the combustion, and the entire rocket launcher's shooting position was instantly submerged in a thick smoky soil. in the fog.

Germany's latest Friedrich rocket launcher can deliver 32 rockets to a target area at a time, enough to hit a battalion-level unit that isn't deployed. The 9th Motorized Infantry Division's artillery battalion has a battalion equipped with this super artillery weapon, and there are a full 20 such rocket-launching vehicles.

This time was the first recorded shooting of the Friedrich rocket launcher in actual combat. It threw 320 rockets to the target area in one go. The cost of this salvo was equivalent to the cost of making a Panther tank. 's body.

However, this weapon is very popular with artillerymen, because it can make one artillery battalion fire two artillery divisions in just 25 seconds. Many Wehrmacht infantry units are equipped with this new weapon, but it has been reserved for use as a secret weapon.

This time, I happened to meet a once-in-a-lifetime target, so I no longer implicitly worry about confidentiality regulations. So this moment recorded in history has finally arrived. Human beings used the self-propelled rocket launcher of the car chassis on a large scale for the first time in the war.

The assembled Polish army has not realized that its doomsday is coming. Soldiers lead cattle and horses to carry artillery shells and bullets on the crowded roads. Tanks have to wait in groups because of lack of fuel. Let the cars and livestock on the road go first.

It was the first time that the Polish commanders who assembled such a large scale did not know at this moment that the slight chaos at the beginning of the German blitzkrieg was the level of ten years of learning and understanding and five years of tempering and mastering— —Already at the pinnacle of the art of war only attained by those Germans known for their sophistication.

As for Poland, which is now learning and selling, it is only now that I realize how difficult it is to learn all this. To do it - these areas require specialists, and Poland does not have a single such talent...

However, with the arrival of the German team's attack, all these issues no longer need to be considered. A rocket hit a donkey carrying a cannonball, and the explosion turned the surrounding into a sea of ​​corpses and blood. Before everyone was stunned, the second rocket fell into the crowd, with broken arms and viscera flying all over the sky. Only then did everyone realize that they had been attacked by enemy artillery.

But it was too late, as the second rocket flew into the crowd, the third, the fourth... one after the other exploded in the crowd, hitting cars and tanks and carrying a piece of steel and iron rain. The Poles were in a chaos, and there were violent explosions everywhere on both sides of the road they were on and on the nearby hills.

No one knows how many artillery pieces the German army used. When the Polish soldiers who survived the sea of ​​​​fire climbed up from the mountain of corpses and blood, the Polish Rhodes Corps task force, which was full of 5,000 people and dozens of tanks just now, It almost doesn't exist anymore.

This rocket attack ended what should have been a continuing tank battle, and the Poles threw in all the tanks they could find in the south to attack the 3rd SS Panzer Division.

The two sides used a total of 273 tanks (73 German tanks: 31 No. 3 tanks, 44 Leopards), and 157 tanks were destroyed (74 Polish tanks were destroyed by German armored forces, and the remaining 83 tanks were discarded or destroyed by rocket launchers)

The next day, when the armored grenadiers of the 9th German Motorized Infantry drove past here in their armored vehicles, they were stunned by the sight in front of them. On the ground, flies were already swarming like the Luftwaffe. . The German soldiers vomited nonstop beside the telephone pole, and cursed at the rumbling Friedrich Bazooka troops.

...

How many tanks did you destroy that day? Marcus stood beside Ren and raised his chest high. He didn't tilt his head to look at Ren, but kept looking straight ahead and asked: Have you heard about the Frederick Bazooka...

Ren didn't answer a word, as if he had fallen asleep with his eyes open. But everyone knew that he was not sleeping, but was thinking about something seriously. After a while, he slowly said: I heard that it is a very powerful weapon.

This... This is the end?... Marcus was a little unwilling, he finally found a topic, and really didn't want Ren to destroy it easily.

Of course, why don't you think I should say something else? Ren hummed and replied: Our tanks are also very powerful. Is this kind of thing used by others?

You're right. Marcus thought for a while and agreed with Rennes.

A soldier suddenly sang loudly outside the door: General Modeler, commander of Army Group d, is here! Commander Guderian is here! There was a little chatter in the room, but after the singing and harmony was over, the whole room was silent. stand up.

Congratulations everyone! Guderian walked into the room with a smile. He looked a little darker than the first time Ryan saw him at the bridgehead of the Searle Bridge.

He walked up to Ren, glanced at Ren, and continued with a smile: I am instructed to award these medals to you, the Artillery's Combat Medal, and the Second Class Iron Cross for several commanders of the tank corps.

The German Iron Cross was revised by the head of state Arkado, and it is distributed to soldiers who have performed great meritorious deeds. The second-class Iron Cross can be distributed as appropriate, and then upgraded in sequence: the first-class Iron Cross, the Knights' Iron Cross. Order, Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross in Oak Leaves, Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross in Oak Leaves with Swords.

However, Ren and others won the second-level Iron Cross at a young age, which is already a very good performance. There are many young German soldiers who have been looking forward to their gray hair and have not had the opportunity to receive such a delicate Iron Cross.

I was supposed to preside over the ceremony for the second-level Iron Cross. Guderian smiled and pointed to General Model, the commander-in-chief of the d army, and solemnly introduced: But my boss wants to give everyone With greater encouragement, I decided to preside over the first medal awarding ceremony of the Army Group, so please applaud.”

All the soldiers began to applaud. Although there were not many people, the sound of applause was not neat, but after all, everyone was very excited and the applause was very warm.

After waiting for the applause to stop, General Model spoke up: General Guderian is a talented young general! I am proud to have such an outstanding subordinate! Most of you are excellent soldiers under his command, I sincerely I hope you can be as good as General Guderian one day!

He squeezed his palm, indicating that he had something to say, and then said again: So this time, I mainly want you to know that I know every one of your achievements! I hope you can continue to keep this kind of dedication to the motherland. The spirit of yourselves, become the pillars of your respective troops!

He first gave several artillery soldiers a medal for participating in the war, rewarding these artillery units for their heroic combat against the enemy. Then shook hands cordially with every medal recipient. He went all the way to Renne.

I heard your name is Ren? Model asked curiously while hanging the second-level Iron Cross on Ren's chest.

Long live the head of state! Report to the general! I'm Ren! Ren replied immediately.

Very reassuring boy! Guderian said with a smile, He is now the number one tank ace in my army.

Yeah! Model laughed and said: It destroyed 11 Polish tanks in World War I, which is really an amazing achievement! Was it hard to fight in that World War?

Thinking of that hard battle, Ren raised the corner of his mouth: I swore to shed blood for the head of state.

What a good soldier. Model nodded in praise.

Thank you for the compliment, General! Ren stood at attention and said with a German salute.

On September 28, 1937, at the birthday banquet of the Führer Arkado, a telegram of victory was sent from the front line. The content on it was very clear: Long live the Führer! The 3rd SS Panzer Division repelled the crazy counterattack of the Poles and killed the enemy. 9,700 people, 1,100 prisoners.

Without saying a word, Accardo announced this victory at the banquet. All the nobles and celebrities present cheered. For a while, the shouts of Long Live Great Germany and Long Live the Führer came one after another.

This Ren is very interesting. Accardo stared at the document in his hand and said with a smile to Mercedes beside him: His parents died of illness when he was a child, and he became a little beggar in Berlin. Inhart sent him to the Wolf Knights at the Armored Command Academy.

I think you should call your secretary, Syndra, and ask her to help you organize your work schedule as soon as possible. You should rush to Poland as soon as possible to meet your generals and the soldiers at the grassroots level. They should be very eager to meet. When it comes to their head of state, the head of state should indeed stand with his soldiers and leave a few pictures.

You're right! Akado nodded and said, I should go to the Polish front, and let those generals not forget my existence! It's just...

It's too late for me to go to Poland. Tomorrow I will fly to Munich to attend the inauguration ceremony of a new synthetic oil processing plant. Mercedes smiled and looked at the embarrassed Arkado: This kind of going Of course, you have to take Fanny with you to the front line... Of course, you have to take Anna to protect your safety!
