Chapter 217 Waiting in the Valley

"Quick, quick!" At this time, it was already night, and torches were lit on both sides of the bridge. Under the light of the torches, tanks rumbled from the bridge head on this side to the The bridge head over there moved again, and the driver calmly pushed the operating panel and drove over with ease.

After the tanks, the infantry fighting vehicles also started up, one after another, the entire convoy walked for two hours!

Finally crossed the bridge! Guderian looked at the dark sky with infinite emotion in his heart, and there was nothing that could block his side! In front, it's all flat!

"Order the troops, work harder, and reach Zaragoza before dawn." Guderian said.

It is necessary to occupy Zaragoza, which is the most important transportation hub. Only by firmly occupying Zaragoza can we continue to raid Barcelona!

The distance that the tank troops can advance cannot exceed 300 kilometers. Within 300 kilometers, there must be a solid logistics supply point. Now, for the first armored division, Zaragoza is the most suitable new logistics. base.

The rolling armored torrent was heading in the direction of Zaragoza.

La Muera Valley.

The night was getting deeper and deeper. On the position of the mountain, a famous soldier of the Republican Army was lying on the cold stone, looking at the valley below. At this time, their hearts almost collapsed.

What about the enemy? What about that terrifying tank force?

At the mouth of a cave on the side of the mountain, a fat Soviet man was drinking his vodka one by one.

"General Kubera, you said, will the German tanks come up tonight?" Beside him, a Spanish general asked.

Hearing his question, General Kubera glanced at him arrogantly: "As a senior commander, be patient, Brandt, don't you have any confidence? Come, have a drink."

Hearing General Kubiera's answer in front of him, Brandt could only suppress his nervousness and took the jug handed over by General Kubiera.

Just after taking a sip, a spicy feeling flowed down his throat, into his esophagus, and into his stomach, and he felt like a fire was burning inside.

"Cough, cough." He couldn't help coughing twice, and said to General Kubera, "This wine is really bad."

Unpleasant? In the Soviets it was the favorite of all men.

General Kubiera, of course, is a pseudonym. All the Soviets who entered Spain have pseudonyms. His real name is Kulik.

Kulik was also a famous Soviet figure, born in 1890 to a Ukrainian peasant family. He established meritorious service in the battle of defending Tsaritsyn. He also commanded the artillery of the Budyonny 1st Cavalry Army, and was considered an old colleague of Stalin.

He came to Spain last month. As a Spanish military adviser, this incident happened just after taking office. As an experienced commander, he immediately judged that the German target was Zaragoza!

When it comes to Barcelona, ​​Kulik will never believe it. As a transportation hub, Zaragoza’s geographical location is very important. Kulik immediately took a plane and flew to Zaragoza overnight to command the battle.

It is quite rare for Kulik to come to the front as a military adviser to the republican government, but this guy is just that kind of guy.

For example, after the start of the Soviet-German war, Stalin sent him to the battlefield, and as a result, Kulik disappeared as soon as he entered the battlefield.

Stalin valued this old colleague very highly, and quickly sent someone to look for him, for fear that he would be surrounded by other senior commanders, or even captured by the German army.

When the search parties finally found Kulik on the chaotic battlefield, the High Command representative was performing the duties of a company commander, busy intercepting and organizing the retreating skirmishers.

As a soldier, he is brave enough, but unfortunately, he lacks the strategic vision of the overall situation, especially the ability to master the troops and respond in complex situations.

Kulik was brave. After he came to Zaragoza, he organized the army and gathered all the nearby soldiers. At the same time, he personally led the team and came here.

Now Kulik looks like he is at ease, but unfortunately, the Spanish generals around him are not as calm as him.

Suddenly, Brandt twisted up his jug quickly and said to the others, "Come on, wake up those who are asleep, the enemy has arrived!"

arrive? Looking at the dark valley below, there is nothing?

Kulik's face was filled with excitement. As an experienced veteran, he just leaned on the stone when he heard the sound of the ground shaking. It was definitely an army moving in!

On both sides of the valley, boulders are prepared. As long as the other party enters the valley, they will release boulders on both sides to seal the valley. When the time comes, see what the other party does!

No matter what tank it is, it is impossible to climb up the steep hillside! As long as you surround the opponent, even if you just throw a grenade, you can kill all these Germans!

Kulick was very excited.

The humming west wind was blowing in the valley, and in the sound of the wind, a troop was galloping towards here.

This is a team of cavalry, they are carrying long spears and cavalry knives on their waists. Their bodies are low on the horse's back, and their bodies are constantly bumping with the horse.

cavalry! War is the catalyst of science and technology. After the end of World War II, the cavalry, an ancient branch of the military, has withdrawn from the stage of war, but now, before World War II, the cavalry is still an indispensable branch of the army of various countries, even the most popular Welcome to the military!

General Mora's men were also equipped with thousands of cavalry corps.

With the hurricane of the German tank force, the infantry sent by General Mora could not keep up with the pace of the German army at all! And now, with the liberation of Zaragoza just around the corner, General Mora was so anxious that he sent his most elite cavalry corps to try to keep up with the German tanks.

After they set off, they only rested once in the middle, and continued to march forward in the starry night, even risking the death of their horses. However, they chased all the way, but there was no trace of the German tank troops.

Are they already in Zaragoza? Thinking of this, Trick, the head of the cavalry regiment, felt inexplicably lost in his heart. He really wanted to be the first to rush into Zaragoza and hack the soldiers of the government army to death under his cavalry sword. ! He was looking forward to such a bloody scene.

On both sides, there are already high peaks.

"Boom, boom." At this moment, a strange voice sounded behind him.
