Chapter 750 This Is a Trap (Plus 4)
"Führer, the battle situation ahead is unfavorable." After being woken up from the bed by the sleepy Cyric, he hurried to the joint combat headquarters of the three armed forces next door.
At this time, all the generals had already arrived, and they were all awakened from their dreams. The person in charge was Marshal Keitel. After he received the situation on the front line, he decided to send people to all the main generals. call up.
"This is the situation now." Keitel has said the situation on the front line again: "In Exeter, we were attacked by the British, who used civilians as cover and attacked us recklessly."
"Of course the idea of the British cannot be allowed to succeed." Scherner said: "Now, since the citizens are being used as shields, the citizens are no longer civilians, but also armed personnel. I propose to launch an indiscriminate attack on these citizens. !"
Schörner is an absolute ruthless man. Now, the German army is constantly winning, making everyone proud, and looking at people from other countries as high above.
If you don't want to live, then let you die!
"No." Manstein said: "This will have serious consequences, after all, those people are civilians."
As the general planner of the invasion of France, Manstein gained a high reputation. He was more suitable as a staff officer than leading troops to fight. Therefore, Cyric also absorbed Manstein into the Joint Command of the Three Armies.
Now, Manstein disagrees with Schörner. Civilians are civilians, not combatants. They are just being used. If the German army attacks these civilians, then the battle in Germany will change. become unjust.
After all, when the war started, they attacked the city all the way with the slogan of revenge for Hitler.
Although they achieved victories one by one, nothing bad happened. This is also the reason why the French mainland was able to settle down smoothly after the surrender of France. Those sporadic resistance elements could not raise any storms at all.
And now, if a massacre is created in the UK, it may shock the British, and it may also make the British more sympathetic to the enemy.
After all, Britain is different from France. The resistance of the British people is stronger. They are definitely not willing to be dominated by Germany over the entire European continent.
Although Manstein was a staff officer, he revealed his talents without a doubt, and he had to consider the whole situation, which might be counterproductive!
"Yeah, we have to be careful about this." Cyric spoke.
careful! There is a trap in the middle, maybe, this is what Churchill dug for himself, waiting for him to jump!
In this way, Churchill can better agitate the morale of the British.
"Our actions must be fast. We cannot delay in Exeter for too long. If our actions are delayed, the British will organize a stronger line of defense in London." Keitel said worriedly.
Choosing Plymouth to land was a risky move. So far, Cyric has won everyone's respect. His commanding skills are unparalleled. Moreover, every time Germany's action seems to be extremely thrilling, But didn't it win in the end?
Now, everyone is equally convinced of Cyric. The German army could successfully land in the UK with very little casualties, relying on Cyric's plan.
However, landing at Plymouth still has its shortcomings. It is not easy to march from Plymouth to London. The terrain there is not suitable for large-scale mobile operations of tanks.
They had to be fast, and if the British had enough time to defend layer by layer, Germany would eventually take London, but at a much higher price.
No one thought that, in Exeter, they were blocked.
"Yes, we have to be fast." Cyric was thinking very fast in his mind, and now, a bold idea had popped into his mind.
"I have a way," Cyric said. "Let us stand on the height of justice and morality and end the battle of Exeter with dignity!"
When Cyric spoke out his thoughts, everyone's eyes were filled with inconceivable. Is that okay? However, this method is really good!
In one day, end the battle for Exeter!
Cyric's order was quickly communicated to the frontline troops, and they were busy.
To the east, the sky was getting brighter.
In the second half of the night, in fact, the sound of gunshots and cannons gradually became quieter and quieter.
At this time, in a private house in Exeter, Churchill's uplifting speech was playing on the radio.
"Now, England, has come to the most dangerous moment, the Germans, suddenly from Plymouth, landed. I do not hide my surprise, this mistake, I have to take the main responsibility, we are all killed by the Germans in Dover They were blinded by their attacks and did not predict their main attack direction."
Churchill must take responsibility, there is no doubt that Churchill did not shy away from responsibility, and he could not avoid it, but he had more to be proud of.
"When the UK was in turmoil, we saw something glittering, and that was the spirit of our British people. For thousands of years, the indomitable spirit. At this time, our entire people of Great Britain are fighting spontaneously!"
"Just in our Exeter, we had a great victory, and one of our brigades there, engaged with the dominant German armour, stopped the advance of the German army abruptly, and laid a line of defense behind us. Creating opportunities, this brigade has given me hope again, as long as we maintain this spirit, our motherland will not perish!"
"Exeter is the hope of our country. Every city in our country will take up arms and fight back against the Germans like Exeter!" Churchill's words were extremely powerful: "For many years, we in Britain, from Unconquered, and I believe, now! Our country, our nation, will live on!"
"Brigadier, the superior's news, the London side, will award the VC medal to everyone who fights here." Beside Bernard, Mills said with great excitement.
VC Medal, Victoria Cross, Victoria Cross, abbreviated as V.C. This is the highest honour in the British Army, awarded to soldiers of extreme valour in the face of battle.
It was set up by Queen Victoria in 1856 at the request of her husband, Prince Albert. Named after Queen Victoria in honor of British soldiers.
This medal is higher than all other British medals, medals, medals. Whether it is for British and Commonwealth officers and soldiers wearing different ranks, or British citizens serving in military institutions, the Victoria Cross is the highest award they can receive.
For many years, the medal was awarded only to those who "showed extraordinary courage in the face of the enemy." Therefore, the Victoria Cross is a symbol and emblem of the brave and heroic.
Now, every British soldier in Exeter can get such a medal! This is enough to make people more brave to fight!
Suddenly, Bernard frowned, and he heard that terrible voice, the German bomber, coming up!
