The Fourth Disaster, Starting from the Movie Eight Hundred

"Hold your ground and don't retreat!"

"Hide well, hide well!"

"Open your mouth if you don't want to be deafened!"

The German soldiers had seen heavy artillery fire before, but this was the first time they had encountered artillery fire so fierce that it made people forget about time.

The Volunteer Army had almost no heavy artillery with a caliber below 155mm. The commonly used calibers were basically 155mm, 203mm and 305mm. Above that were the super heavy artillery unique to the Volunteer Army.

Germany certainly had its own Gustav, but the problem was that their super-heavy artillery couldn't fire as fast as the Volunteer Army. In history, the Gustav only fired 14 rounds a day.

However, the Volunteer Army's Xuanyue Cannon fired an average of one round every twenty minutes, and its firing rate was so exaggerated that it made the German army doubt their lives.

The accuracy is even more terrifying. After all, the firing rate of heavy artillery of this level is generally not fast. It is mainly used for accurate targeting, and has high requirements for artillery accuracy. But the problem is that the Volunteer Army has ten Xuanyue cannons.

According to the intelligence Germany has been able to collect so far, none of the super-heavy artillery in Xinhua has been used. That is to say, the Volunteer Army was able to use 10 super-heavy artillery pieces that the German army had to work hard to move. So how many troops and weapons and equipment have they deployed in the Middle East in advance? It's really terrifying to think about it.

Under this level of bombardment, any defense becomes ridiculous. The only purpose of defensive facilities is to hide themselves, trying not to be seen by the enemy. Then, those hiding inside desperately pray that the terrifying shells will not hit their heads.

The German Air Force and Navy attempted to fight back, but were utterly crushed by even more intense anti-aircraft fire and jet fighters.

Rommel reported back to his country more than once on the frontline battle reports from the North African battlefield, repeatedly emphasizing that the German army needed jet fighters, the more the better!

The good news is that Germany now does have combat-ready jet fighters.

The bad news was that their Me262 was no match for the MiG-21.

Because these two aircraft have already fought each other in Romania.

The battle-hardened pilots were completely overwhelmed by the Volunteer Army's crude BZ tactics, and even had no advantage in the air combat, because the Volunteer Army pilots could use all kinds of bizarre and even completely chaotic tactics to completely defeat them.

Many German ace pilots who encountered the volunteers were screaming.

"That's not a tactic a normal human could use!"

It's normal that they can't beat him. One is an advanced technology that was only developed during World War II, and the other is a mature jet fighter. You can't expect a newborn baby to arm wrestle with Tyson.

It is true that Rommel is a military god, but the only thing he can do now is to let his soldiers hide themselves and not act without authorization before the Volunteer Army officially attacks. On the battlefield of such a large-scale decisive battle, conspiracy and trickery are just embellishments. What determines the outcome of both sides is who can hold on to the end.

"Marshal, our defense line has been almost destroyed. No fortifications can stop the Volunteer Army's artillery bombardment. Should we withdraw the front-line troops first?"

"You know what that means. If the Volunteers find that this tactic works, they will continue to do the same thing and crush our defense line bit by bit. Their army has not yet been dispatched. We must not give up our position before they act. The Volunteers are already difficult to deal with. If we let them gain a foothold in our position right away, the next battle will be even more difficult. Tell our soldiers that they must hold on, and hold on firmly. This is the only way!"

Rommel certainly knew that doing so would result in huge casualties and loss of morale, but he had no other choice. The Suez Canal was very important and was the key to Germany's further progress, so it could not be lost. The bottom line that the Führer could accept was that at least Egypt had to be in German hands, and the German army confronted the volunteers along the canal.

But now it seems that this goal is also very difficult to achieve.

The only good news is that the Volunteer Army will definitely attack. Under the cover of artillery and bombing, the enemy will inevitably launch a landing operation, and then it will be the German army that will counterattack...

boom!

A sudden loud noise startled Rommel. He was about to startle his men when he found five "German soldiers" wearing German uniforms, holding German weapons, but with "victor's smiles" on their faces standing in front of him with guns raised, pointing their guns at everyone in the headquarters.

"It's made it easier for us to find you, Marshal Rommel. The Volunteer Army Dragon Teeth Special Forces send their greetings to you."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a series of even more terrifying explosions outside, followed by shouts and screams. But in less than five minutes, all the sounds disappeared, and only something could be vaguely heard from the distance, as if the battle was still going on.

All the German officers present were shocked. Could it be that... No, this is impossible!?

Nothing is impossible. The players of the Volunteer Army had no intention of crushing the Suez Canal defense line bit by bit. All the layouts in the front were to attract the attention of the German army. Small groups of troops had already been airdropped to the rear of the German army, or to a very rear place, directly to the rear of the desert.

For a normal army, this is a suicidal act, but for players, this is called infinite circumvention without map boundaries. The German army has limited manpower and it is impossible to cover all defense lines. As long as the players gather more than a hundred people behind the German army, then according to the average level of the players at this time, it is equivalent to directly shooting a fully armed armored division behind the enemy. No troop can withstand being stabbed in the waist without any preparation.

The German army is in this situation now. In addition, the population of Egypt is basically concentrated in cities, and most areas are sparsely populated. Players have to make a lot of noise if they want to be discovered. Their movement direction and the act of changing into German equipment make the German army mistakenly think that the other party is their own. By the time they are embarrassed, it is too late.

In this way, the Desert Fox Rommel, the marshal of the German Third Reich, became a prisoner of war of the Volunteer Army and the highest commander of the Axis powers captured by players so far.

Section 248: Guderian is advancing

(May Day is over, and I'm actually relieved. Ugh, can't I just die trying to rush work during the holidays?)

The news of Rommel's capture was quickly told to the world through the Volunteer Army's propaganda system. The angry mustache guy frantically shouted "You're hindering us" in the office, while the morale of the Allied camp was greatly boosted.

Especially after Rommel's dejected photo appeared on the front pages of newspapers around the world, this victory frenzy reached a new peak. Anyone with a little military knowledge knew that the hand extended by Nazi Germany had been broken.

The happiest one was of course the Soviet Union, as this meant that their "Asian chin" was safe. However, the happy people did not include the far-sighted Soviet high-ranking officials.

Comrade Cifu spent another sleepless night, pacing back and forth in front of the world map.

It was indeed very dangerous for Germany to control the Middle East, but it was even more dangerous for the Volunteer Army to control the Middle East. Moreover, this war was coming to an end in less than three days, and the Volunteer Army clearly expressed its interest in maintaining a military presence in the Middle East.

What’s even worse is that the locals welcomed the arrival of the volunteers, first the Palestinians and then the Jews.

Why are there still Jews?

Think about why the Jews came here. Most of them wanted to have a stable life. Only after ensuring this would they have other ideas.

People's goodness needs to be guided, and the same goes for evil, except that the latter is relatively easier to guide out. But as long as you don't guide them, ordinary people will spontaneously form an order of mutual adaptation. Conflicts and even wars will only occur when contradictions are absolutely irreconcilable.

Among the Jews who came to the Canaan region before, there were many Zionists. This was also the result of Britain's deliberate guidance. These people are a group of troubles no matter where they are, but here, they have been made scarce by the players.

In addition to direct cleaning with evidence, players will also intercept beliefs.

The method is also very simple. Players will disguise themselves as Jews and spread Jewish gospel content that is completely different from Judaism. They claim that theirs is the authentic one and that all current Judaism is fake, and they directly start to split Judaism.

Under normal circumstances, this is of course very difficult, but the Jews in Canaan are isolated from their homeland and are in great need of solidarity and help. The help provided by the players is absolutely all-round. Coupled with the cooperation of the local players who are volunteers, the Jews who come here soon find that these "Jewish heretics" can be of use in all aspects, and it is definitely helpful to find them when encountering problems.

The more people live in unfamiliar places, the more they need help from their fellow tribesmen. If this fellow tribesman is willing to help and can provide effective help, it would be even better. Many people will spontaneously gather around him, and every word of this person in charge will have an impact. Over time, the influence becomes a habit, the habit becomes obedience, and obedience becomes faith.

Isn’t this how the earliest religions were born? Now players are just replicating this process.

As for whether your Judaism is Judaism, and whether my Judaism is Judaism, in the face of real reality, even Jews will stand on the side that represents their interests.

Originally, the Zionists could plunder the locals through various violence and conspiracies, and then win over other Jews by sharing the profits from the robbery. But now the version has been updated. If you dare to play like this, the work will be done in the morning, the people will be arrested at noon, the court will sentence you in the afternoon, and you will go to jail at night. You will not be able to get any profit at all. If you dare to touch anything illegal, the volunteers will appear behind you with a kind face and tell you the story of God's ascension.

The subsequent developments were much simpler. Faced with no benefits, great danger, and no guarantee of a future, most Jews would choose to stay away from these Zionists or simply report them, greatly reducing the living space of these terrorist organizations. They would either leave or choose to lie dormant, or at least behave themselves as good people before the volunteer army revealed its fatal weakness.

Among these dormant people, a considerable number will get used to and like their current life, and eventually completely abandon their nationalist ideas, thinking that it is also good to be under the rule of the Volunteer Army.

As for those Jewish merchants, normal commercial trade was not restricted by the Volunteer Army. On the contrary, because the Volunteer Army could ensure a stable and secure social order, these Jewish merchants could earn more and be more stable. Most small vendors were happy as long as they had a stable life. They could fully accept this new life. As a result, the order and ethnic relations in the Canaan region were stabilized.

The volunteer army brought strength and fairness, and a new order would naturally emerge.

After the Canaan region is stabilized, the Volunteer Army will have a solid strategic fulcrum in the Middle East, and in a short period of time, no force will be able to deploy influential forces here. Even if it can be done, do you want to consider the combat effectiveness of the Volunteer Army?

With a solid strategic fulcrum, the Volunteer Army began to threaten Germany's rule in Europe from two directions.

Looking at the map, we can see that after the Canaan region is controlled by the volunteers, they can then build ports and harass the German army directly from the Mediterranean. From here, they can control Cyprus and Crete, forming an effective deterrent while forcing the German army to divide its troops and at the same time protecting the Soviet Union's chin.

The Volunteer Army is gradually forming local strategic advantages and can ensure that these areas are not recaptured by Germany.

While the situation in the Middle East was stabilizing, the volunteer army in the Istanbul area also broke out in a fierce battle in Bulgaria with the German army that came to protect Romania. Poor Bulgaria was caught in a double-sided attack, but they had no say in this issue and could only silently endure the ravages from the strong.

The only good news is that the volunteer army in the south will at least not make things difficult for the local people, and as the volunteer army advances, the Yugoslav guerrillas are also rapidly arming themselves and transforming into regular troops.

However, due to the terrain, it was impossible for the volunteer army to fight a large battle with the German tanks here.

Seventy percent of Bulgaria's land is mountains and hills, and only thirty percent is plains and lowlands. The only area where armored forces can operate on a large scale is the coastal area, referring to the inland Black Sea.

No matter how it was formed, an inland sea is still a sea, and Bulgaria has a navy that is better than nothing.

Or you can call it the Black Sea Patrol and there's nothing wrong with that.

Although the Balkan region was still important during World War II, the small countries here were basically invisible at this time. If it were not for the emergence of Yugoslavia, this place would have remained unknown until the 21st century, until the war once again turned it into a powder keg.

If you don’t believe it, just take a look at the international political news. Apart from Serbia, which is given special attention by our country, how many other Balkan countries appear in the news? Within ten seconds, you can’t remember more than three leaders of Balkan countries.

But the location here made it impossible for the German army to let go. They did not want to see the volunteer army that had broken through the Balkans sweep through their Romanian oil depots and then meet up with the Soviet Red Army in Ukraine.

This is such a fucking hell scroll, absolutely unbearable.

The commander in charge of the German military operations in Romania was an old acquaintance of World War II enthusiasts - Gu Bushuai.

Guderian was indeed not very handsome, but that was not the point. The reason was that he was not promoted to marshal in the end. Logically, he should have become a German marshal. It can only be said that it was fate.

And now, the blade of the Third Reich is about to point its tip at Bulgaria. The German Balkan Army Group, which he led and had just been formed, is going to launch a defense in the Bulgarian region to protect the imperial oil depot.

However, Guderian, who liked to attack, thought that the German army could make full use of Bulgaria's complex territory and teach the volunteers a profound lesson here. As for defense, offense is the best defense, just like killing all the enemy assassins can only sneak in perfectly. I was following the Führer's instructions, but I just changed the method.

Therefore, the German army, which had originally planned to defend in front of the Volunteer Army, began to advance rapidly towards the rear of the Volunteer Army. Guderian personally led two light armored divisions to start a circumvention, while a large amount of air power was concentrated on the front, creating the appearance of a strict defensive posture of the German army.

He wants to attack the volunteer army by surprise!

Chapter 249: Come, let’s change homes!

(First update! There will be a second update soon!)

Guderian was brave, but his bravery did not mean he would definitely succeed.

However, this time it was not the players who discovered him, but the local Yugoslav guerrillas.

After all, the total strength of the Volunteer Army here is only two divisions. Even if players can deploy them quickly, they generally will not be scattered everywhere like the US military. Instead, a small number of them will be abroad and most of them will be at home. Personnel adjustments will be made according to the situation when needed. Therefore, the military presence of the Volunteer Army in a certain area is certain within a unit of time.

Players will of course also deploy scouts, but the scouts' reconnaissance radius cannot cover the entire Balkan region. For example, this time, the German army started moving from the border area between Bulgaria and Serbia, and specifically chose areas that were rarely visited. In addition, they were all lightly armored forces and had strong mobility.

But they were a normal army after all, and they needed logistical supplies. No matter whether it was airdropped or transported, there were routes, and the army itself carried limited supplies. Therefore, the Yugoslav guerrillas active in the local area quickly discovered the traces of the German army and quickly reported it to the volunteer army active in the Bulgarian region.

If that were all, the German army would still have enough time to act, but the local guerrillas did not give them this opportunity. A young man named Walter performed outstandingly in this battle. He led the Serbian guerrillas of the Yugoslav guerrillas to stubbornly contain the German army, relying on various simple but people-skilled weapons to slow down the German army's action speed. The traps dug and obstacles set in the mountains and on the roads alone slowed down the German army's advance by two full days.

But the Serbian guerrillas also paid a heavy price. Many local villages were subjected to the brutal Three Alls Policy by the German army, but Walter still gritted his teeth and persevered.

"The volunteers have arrived. The day of our motherland's liberation is not far away. All the price we pay here is worth it! Welcome, comrades. Hold on to the last moment. Victory belongs to us!"

For the local people, nothing is more convincing than the continuous sound of gunfire. Even if it is just to protect their homes, they must stand up and fight the German devils to the last moment. Who made the Nazis insist on regarding the Slavs as an inferior race and the slaves of the future world? If such a country wins, how can the Balkan countries be good?

Even if there were officers in the German army who managed military discipline, they were a minority. Burning, killing, and looting were the norm for most armies in the world. The only commendable thing about the Soviet army in this regard was that after reporting the case, the Soviet Political Committee dealt with it seriously, such as dragging the person out and repeatedly shooting him, but that was all. After all, those with the most ideals and persistence are often the first to sacrifice. -p

Not to mention that the vassal national army and puppet army around the German army are all various anthropomorphic things. After their reputation is ruined, the fear of the people has its limits. Since they are all going to die anyway, they might as well fight you.

Violent slaughter is the most costly form of management, and it has always been the case.

The result was that the more anxious Guderian became, the more thorough the German army's three-light policy became, the more local people joined the guerrillas, and the more frequent the attacks became, and the more anxious Guderian became. It was a vicious cycle.

“Although this is not Sarajevo, Walter is also defending the people of this land.”

Players are well aware of the evil things the Nazis did in the Balkans. For a military empire like them, it is impossible not to plunder other countries as long as their tanks start moving. You know, just forcing local countries to export agricultural products, timber and mineral resources to Germany at low prices has already brought the fragile local economy to the brink of collapse, not to mention provoking ethnic conflicts. The legacy lasted until after World War II and continued until the Kosovo War.

By the way, Germany's promotion of German in the local area and its forced promotion are no different from what the Japanese did. At most, they are a little more shameless than the Japanese, but only a little.

Otherwise, how could so many local guerrillas emerge from the cracks in the rocks? It was all the Germans' own fault.

Cruel exploitation and repression naturally brought about the most stubborn resistance. The Yugoslav guerrillas were forged in such iron and fire, which led to the establishment of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

"It's time to provide assistance to those comrades who are brave enough to fight. Super Kunpeng, take off!"

The Super Kunpeng here is a transport aircraft modified on the basis of the B-29. Although it is a modified B-29, the propeller uses coaxial counter-propeller technology, so it looks a bit like the Tu-95. The maximum bomb load has soared to 15 tons, which is more than the German Me323 Giant transport aircraft. It is currently the undisputed number one transport aircraft in World War II.

When fully loaded, it can also reach a flight speed of 600 kilometers per hour, which is very suitable for airdropping guerrillas, but the actual use of Super Kunpeng is very different from its positioning.

If a normal army uses the Super Kunpeng, it is an extra-large transport aircraft, which is fine. But when players use the Super Kunpeng, it is a super air fortress, piled with various machine cannons and machine guns, and almost all of the load has become weapon mounts and armor protection, as well as a more powerful engine. Players can exchange things that need to be airdropped directly above the target and then throw them down. This makes the Super Kunpeng used by players actually an air fortress with terrifying firepower.

The purpose of making this thing is to allow land combat players to fly up and fire machine guns.

As long as the enemy's barrage is not enough to tear the player's Super Kunpeng into pieces at once, the worst that can happen is that you can just fight and repair it at the same time.

What's more, the key defense structure of the Super Kunpeng is enough to make the main cannons and machine guns of the German fighter planes return in vain.

So the following story emerged:

One day in 1943, a Super Kunpeng of the Volunteer Army went to Serbia to carry out an airdrop mission. There was really only such a transport plane, and there was not even an escorting fighter.

After the German army discovered the trace of Super Kunpeng, they immediately informed the nearby German Air Force. When they learned that the transport plane had gone out to perform combat missions without escort, the German pilots who received the mission believed that their chance to make a name for themselves had come, so they attacked decisively. A team of 12 planes headed straight for Super Kunpeng.

The German army was still very cautious. Even after receiving the news that the transport plane had no escort, they still sent out a team, and this team searched when they approached the target. After all, the Super Kunpeng had a very high ceiling, and they could not reach it under normal circumstances. However, this Super Kunpeng was flying leisurely at an altitude that could be touched by German fighter planes, which made people suspect that this was a trap and they had to test it carefully.

After confirming that there were no other escort fighters around Super Kunpeng No. 110, twelve German Bf109s rushed over like wolves and tigers, as if they were going to tear the target apart in an instant, and then they were swept by the oncoming barrage of bullets, and blood was splattered in the sky.

Players were so crazy that they deployed ten twin-mounted 20mm machine gun turrets on the Super Kunpeng, with heavy machine gun firing holes on both sides of the body and a series of armored compartments cut out inside. It is no exaggeration to say that this thing is no different from a flying tank. The efficiency of fighter planes' air defense in World War II was not high, but this did not include players who, with the help of the system, could accurately predict and aim at enemy aircraft.

Anyone who has played World of Warplanes knows that when you lock onto a target, a red circle will appear in front of the target. This is the lead time, and you can hit the enemy by shooting into that circle.

When this operating system becomes a real-world technology, there is a huge amount of computing power behind the simple operations. After these are fed back to the players, they become the firepower of the White Guard like Super Kunpeng.

In just one encounter, eight of the twelve attacking German fighter planes were shot down. The remaining four were stunned for a moment, and three more were lost, leaving only one German fighter plane to flee.

There's no way to chase this one. The overweight Super Kunpeng has poor maneuverability. It's okay for going in a straight line, but as for maneuvering and turning, you're making it difficult for me, Fat Tiger.

The German pilot who went back to report the incident was tried by a military court. Because this matter was too outrageous, the German army obviously could not accept it all at once. But just when this young man was about to be sent to replenish copper elements, new battle reports came from the front line. It was also a Super Kunpeng, and a fighter plane survived the barrage of fire. However, the young man was not as lucky as this one. He lost an arm and became a disabled person after surviving.

After the relevant information was reported, the German military experts quarreled. They really couldn't understand why weapons that looked so normal became so abnormal in the hands of the volunteers. But the German generals didn't care. They all felt that in terms of weapon design, what the volunteers could do, the military industry of our great Germany could also do. If you can't do it, it's because you insects are not capable enough. Go and figure out a solution for me.

Poor German military experts are almost going bald. They really have no way to replicate the miracle of the Volunteer Army with existing technology. However, it is not completely impossible to replicate. For example, some experts have suggested adding radar on board. If there is a radar on the plane and it is used together with machine guns, it may have miraculous effects.

It was an accidental success, but the best ally of radar is the missile. At present, Nazi Germany's plan of using radar on airplanes to control anti-aircraft artillery is just a beautiful fantasy. It is not that it cannot be realized, but that the cost-effectiveness is not high. Even if it is produced, it will be eliminated quickly, just like the super tank that was misled by the volunteers.
