My Third Empire

When Rommel came over to report that his armored unit's morning probing attack had been repelled by the defenders, Arcador was clearly in good spirits. [First episode] He chatted with his confidant about the weather, and asked kindly, How was the canned food last night? Did you sleep well at night?

My Führer. I slept well last night. I haven't been able to sleep for such a long time in recent days. Rommel replied proudly: I had to keep chasing my troops the other day. , they are my best men.

All the soldiers who dare to bleed for the motherland on the battlefield are the sons of the German people! General Rommel. Akado laughed and said: You are also very brave, and Fanny often mentions you to me, saying that you give them The photos sent are all very good, and she once said that Mr. Hugo, my chief photographer, is going to invite you to the best restaurant in Berlin for a steak.

Photographer Hugo held the camera on one side and found an angle to take a photo, then quickly put down the camera and waved: I said that I would invite General Rommel to dinner! I didn't say that I wanted to eat at the best restaurant! My salary can be Please!

Hahahaha. It's okay! I like photography very much. If Mr. Hugo doesn't mind, I can ask you to discuss the knowledge of photography together. My treat, the best hotel. Rommel laughed and said.

Don't let the armored troops attack anymore. The way of fighting in the city is not suitable for them. Let them retreat and give up the offensive position. Arkado said to Rommel: Give your subordinates a few days off, and then tell As the head of Germany, I am very grateful for their heroic battle, which is an honor they deserve.

They will be very happy to hear the Führer's praise, Rommel replied straightly.

Akado thought for a while and then said: Stop organizing a large-scale attack. I don't want to exchange the lives of soldiers for those honors. Cut off all energy and food supplies in Warsaw, and wait for them to surrender themselves.

Liszt immediately nodded and agreed with Accardo's suggestion: The head of state cherishes the lives of front-line soldiers. It is definitely an inspiring good news for the grassroots officers and soldiers.

General Liszt, don't worry. Fanny said with a smile on the side, We will definitely report these news truthfully, so that the German people can understand the painstaking efforts of the Führer.

When the head of state and his generals were chatting and laughing in front of the position, when the photos of the head of state standing beside the plane were all over the streets, more people were never noticed by history, they were like passers-by in TV dramas Usually, not even a name remains.

In fact, there are people who do the glamorous jobs and can eat dinner around a campfire in the company of a group of guards and politicians and generals. This kind of person casually pats a soldier on the shoulder to encourage him to continue fighting, which can make the soldier who was patted on the shoulder weep bitterly.

Although the sentence: You did a good job, keep working hard. The translation is almost: Come on! Go to the front to die!

Obviously, Arcador is such a person. However, such people are only a minority after all, and more people do not have the aura of the protagonist, or the domineering aura of the superior. They go to work, go to get off work, go to the battlefield, and come back every day... just to get paid or to live a good life.

Are you envious of those Air Force pilots who fly in the blue sky? Isn't it cool to fly through the clouds with the roar of the engine, smash the opponent's plane into a sieve, and then pass the burning enemy plane like a shooting star?

Isn't that kind of tank soldier who sweats down his cheeks because of the heat in the tank, smashes his opponent into a pile of wreckage with the loud noise of the tank gun, and enjoys the baptism of war while humming in the hail of bullets?

Don't envy those occupations that look very powerful, because often such occupations also represent high risk. Especially in wartime, the more envied you are, the easier it is to be the next idiot to die.

And what makes these star troops shine so bright are actually the unknown ordinary soldiers behind them. Many soldiers have no chance to see the enemy's appearance with their own eyes, and they do not have the pleasure of picking up weapons and pouring ammunition at the target, but without them, precision The war machine will never work.

Although it is already the end of September, the weather in Poland is still very hot. Especially when doing some heavy physical labor, it makes people feel even more unbearable. The ground crew of two bomber squadrons were carefully examining the aerial bombs stacked on the side of the runway with their notebooks.

These ground crews are the kind of military that young people don't like. In terms of the nature of their work, they are the so-called porters and statisticians. However, without these ground staff, those advanced fighter jets have become a pile of scrap iron, so although they have not been favored by others, the training and supplementation of air force ground staff has always been supervised by General Catherine by the head of state.

Not far away, three shirtless ground crews were using tools to hang bombs on the wings of the upcoming -217 bomber, now the only medium bomber in Germany. Although it is strictly required to wear protective clothing and pay attention to military appearance, but because of the hot weather and tedious work, most ground staff still choose to take off their clothes to work.

The -217 bomber has improved its own protection system and is equipped with 3 powerful 13mm caliber machine guns. Such powerful equipment allows the -217 bomber to face Polish aircraft with ease, and even the Luftwaffe once cancelled the accompanying bomber in order to save fuel. The escort mission of the fw-190d fighter.

The advantages of the Luftwaffe can be seen from their record: -217 bombers shot down 29 Polish Air Force fighters in the Battle of Poland, losing only 17 of their own. Of this loss, only 6 were shot down by Polish Air Force fighters.

A fw-190d fighter jet with Mickey Mouse painted on its nose taxied for a while on the runway, and finally stopped at the end. The pilot got out of the cockpit of the plane, and several ground staff rushed forward to help. The pilot took off his leather hat with goggles and threw it to a ground officer with a wicked smile: The horizontal rudder you adjusted for me is great! My wingman will come back in a while, and the two of us will invite you together. You drink champagne.

Garland! How many fights did you get today? The ground service officer caught Garland's hat with his hand and laughed, You want to kill me with one drink? That's not good! At least you Just give me two packs of cigarettes.

Garland grumbled loudly while unpacking the parachute to a ground crew next to him: Hey, forget it! Those Polish airmen the other day looked like bulls that ate marijuana. What day will I be on the 17th and the 18th? Isn't it a record of 10? Today is a good day. I went to the sky for an hour and only saw two...

You can be content, the two fighter jets that took off an hour earlier than you, and a Polish plane didn't see it. The ground service officer laughed and said, Yesterday morning, the Führer took the plane back to Berlin, why didn't you escort him?

There is no Polish plane on the Eastern Front that can catch up with the Dornier airliner of the Führer. Garland said as he walked back: I can't do those flattering things, it is more in line with me to smash the opponent's plane into parts in the sky. style.

I heard that the -217 squadron over there gave the Führer a gift? And the Führer likes it very much? He handed a cigarette to the ground service officer next to him, and Garland took one himself: Can you find a way to give it to me? Is there a camera on the plane?

What? Changed careers? Do you want to go to the reconnaissance unit? The ground crew officer gave a wicked smile.

Hey... It seems that I'm really not the kind of person who can please my boss. Garland sighed, then laughed and said, Go! Go for a drink! I have a patrol mission tomorrow afternoon.

-217 bombers and Stukas became the most popular aircraft for the Germans, which paralyzed the army on the shore, and wiped out reinforcements and supplies before they reached the front lines. The -217 bomber squadron was named Hindenburg Squadron in honor of the former German President Field Marshal Hindenburg, a veteran of World War I.

The emblem of this unit is an eagle dropping bombs on the railway, and their mission is to attack the enemy's railway line. But now they are targeting the whole of Poland, so they are brutally bombing every place - even the city center of Warsaw. Just the night before Accardo returned to Berlin, the squadron leader of the squadron made a photo album of photographs taken by the bomber pilots and sent it to the great German Führer.

The next day, they frantically bombed the surrounded Polish Pomeranian Army in the north of Warsaw, dropping 20 tons of ammunition in one go. Eventually the Pomeranian Legion laid down his arms and surrendered. The commander of this legion, Potnowski, surrendered to the frontal German armor, and then waited until Rommel arrived before handing over his saber, September 27. , as Poland's last organized field regiment, the Pomeranian Army was eliminated.

In Poland now, the Air Force has been unable to take off against the Luftwaffe as a system, and the Army has become a turtle in the urn. Except for the hundreds of thousands of troops in the direction of the Soviet border, the troops in the other directions have been wiped out—— It's not that they don't want to go back to fight, but because on the one hand they are worried about the Soviets chasing, on the other hand, the German team is advancing too fast and they can't react. Before they could make a judgment, Warsaw was besieged, communications were cut off, and victory belonged entirely to the Germans.

Arkado inspected his efficient and powerful army in Poland, and then returned to Berlin secretly by plane, and when the Fuehrer's plane landed in Berlin, Kluge, who had been working in the Berlin headquarters, was Knowing that he has been promoted because of Accardo's thought, he is now the commander-in-chief of the newly established f army stationed in Poland.
