The decisive battle against the Third Reich - #937 - Chapter 934 Triumph (Are there any monthly tickets left?)

Facts have proved that Colonel Selter’s decision was correct, because the most troublesome thing for the German army was not the regular army, even if the Allied paratroopers were all elite.

What troubled them was the ubiquitous guerrillas, and these guerrillas could not be eliminated.

As a result, half of the remnants led by Colonel Selter survived in the end, which was almost the sum of all the surviving troops who withdrew to the Ardennes Mountains.

And Colonel Selter’s troops did play a significant role in the Netherlands as he said.

This proves that Colonel Selter’s decision was correct.

These are all later stories. A few hundred people fighting guerrillas in the Netherlands is like throwing a small stone into the sea for the entire war situation, and the impact on the entire war situation is minimal.

When Qin Chuan, General Strike and others returned to Belfort to build fortifications after the battle, Rommel and Rundstedt even went to the entrance of the fortifications to greet them.

Of course, Lieutenant General Lumanlin and his subordinates were also indispensable. Lieutenant General Lumanlin even asked his subordinates to set up a small version of the Arc de Triomphe in front of the entrance, with red and black flags on it, and military bands played military music on both sides. After Qin Chuan and his party got off the car, two rows of neatly standing guards raised their guns and fired three consecutive shots into the air, and then the soldiers cheered and scattered flower braids in the middle of the road. Qin Chuan and General Strike and others were a little confused by this situation… You know, this is the front line. Although the headquarters of Rommel and Rundstedt and others are relatively far back, 8 kilometers away from the forefront, this is only a minute for enemy fighters. Even if there are no planes, a piece of artillery fire will cause heavy losses to the German troops gathered here. But this seems normal. In some ways, the German army is also a formality-oriented army. There was once a military band going ahead to beat gongs and drums to attack the destination, as if they were afraid that the enemy would not know that the German army was coming. On the other hand, real combat troops are all about actual combat.

In other words, the German army actually has a polarized side.

Rommel came up and saw the strange expressions of Qin Chuan and others, and explained: “These are all the intentions of Lieutenant General Rumanlin… If we knew he would do these things in advance, we would stop him!”

So, these are all “surprises” for Rommel and others.

Lieutenant General Rumanlin didn’t think there was anything wrong with this at all. He said to Qin Chuan with a smile on his face: “Welcome, our hero! Compared with your victory on the battlefield, my preparations are simply a trivial matter!”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan almost spurted blood onto the ceiling.

“Let’s leave this place quickly!” said General Strike.

Rommel and others certainly did not object, and walked towards the fortification without saying a word. Lieutenant General Rumanlin followed behind and shouted: “General Strike, as the supreme commander who won the victory in this battle, won’t you say a few words? They are looking forward to it, and of course there is the ‘legendary sergeant’…”

“General!” Qin Chuan lowered his voice and said to Lieutenant General Rumanlin: “You’d better let them put away the instruments and evacuate immediately!”

“Why?” Lieutenant General Rumanlin asked.

“Because the enemy’s reconnaissance planes are likely to watch all this in the air!” Qin Chuan said: “They will report the coordinates to the artillery units or bombers, and then…”

Lieutenant General Rumanlin’s face turned pale in an instant, and then he hurriedly yelled at the military band: “Stop, fucking stop! Get out of here…”

The next second, when he reacted, he simply ignored the subordinates who were packing up outside, and followed the officers and hid in the fortification.

Until he entered the elevator, Lieutenant General Rumanlin was a little relieved.

At this time, there was indeed a whistling and explosion of shells outside, and the elevator that was going down was shaking due to vibration.

“Damn it!” Lieutenant General Rumanlin cursed, he glanced at everyone, and then said: “Sorry, Marshals, generals, I didn’t mean it! I don’t know these…”

“Lieutenant General Rumanlin!” Rommel said teasingly: “You seem to be preparing another headquarters for us!”

“Why?” Lieutenant General Rumanlin became nervous again: “Marshal, you mean… they will blow up our headquarters?”

After a pause, Lieutenant General Rumanlin said again: “No, they can’t blow it up here, right?”

“Yes!” Rommel replied: “You are right, they really can’t blow it up here. But you successfully told them that there are important people here, I don’t want to go out for a breath of fresh air one day , there will be snipers or artillery shells waiting for me outside!”

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin said “Oh”, then nodded awkwardly: “Of course, Marshal, of course! I will arrange it for you right away…”

Lü Manlin didn’t even get off the elevator, and immediately took his men to prepare a new headquarters. Before leaving, he did not forget to shake hands with Qin Chuan and said, “I’m sorry, I don’t know this!”

“It’s okay, General!” Qin Chuan replied, “You will know soon!”

Lu Manlin was actually avoiding embarrassment, because it is easy to arrange a new headquarters in the fortress… As mentioned before, each fortress is equivalent to an underground town, where all kinds of things are available and transportation is also well connected.

Therefore, Lieutenant General Lu Manlin only needed to vacate a few rooms and let Rommel and others move there. The communication equipment and living facilities were ready.

“Yes, he will know it soon!” Rommel agreed with Qin Chuan’s words: “Because this is a battlefield. If he doesn’t learn it, he will be eliminated from the battlefield, no one is exception!”

“This is the benefit of the battlefield, isn’t it?” Rundstedt said: “This is also one of the reasons why I like the battlefield, but… I don’t seem to be suitable here now!”

Rundstedt was talking about his health condition. This place is close to the Netherlands and Belgium, and the underground will inevitably be damp and cold. As an old man in his sixties, Rundstedt is miserable here.

“It won’t be long, Commander-in-Chief!” General Rommel said: “As long as we are prepared and accumulate enough strength, we will launch a fatal blow to the enemy!”

Rondstedt nodded and said: “Don’t worry about these, Marshal, I know these are nothing. Our soldiers are still bleeding and dying on the front line. At least I am safe here!”

As a nobleman, Rundstedt would not hold back at this time.
