Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Not to mention human rights and freedom, the original purpose of introducing Africans in France was for cheap labor, and the places where Africans are most concentrated are sweatshops and the Foreign Legion.

The African-American in front of Jack was obviously a soldier of the Foreign Legion. His outdated weapons, poor equipment, and that docile mule showed his identity everywhere.

"Are you a Foreign Legionnaire?" Jack wondered.

"No, I'm a Frenchman, a real Frenchman—" the other party emphasized, and then he was a little embarrassed: "—before I became a French citizen, I was a soldier of the Foreign Legion."

That's right, the French Foreign Legion is mainly composed of North and West Africans, Somalis, Indochinese, and even Near Easterners, with African descent accounting for about two-thirds.

Although the French government nominally regards French overseas colonies as French territory, it actually does not want to take responsibility for those second-class citizens living in overseas colonies.

Even if those second-class citizens join the French nationality through the Foreign Legion, they will not be able to enjoy the rights due to the real French, which is completely inconsistent with what the French government promised.

"Anyway, I want to thank you—" Jack opened the equipment bag, took out a pack of cigarettes and a bar of chocolates, and handed them to the little black named Dolly.

Dolly was very happy, and carefully stuffed the cigarettes into her close-fitting pocket, holding the chocolate at a loss.

The poor guy has never eaten chocolate, and the French government will not distribute such scarce supplies to the Foreign Legion.

Jack made a motion to put it in his mouth.

Dolly understood and stuffed the chocolate directly into her mouth.

"Wait, wait—" Jack couldn't laugh or cry, he had to tear off the wrapping paper before eating.

What Jack didn't expect was that when Jack tore open the wrapping paper, Dolly looked distressed. It is estimated that the attraction of chocolate to him is not as valuable as the colorful wrapping paper.

That's right, when Europeans arrived in Africa and America, didn't they just exchange glass balls for gold and gems from the locals?

The smoke bomb was still effective, and soon a dozen soldiers from four companies gathered around Jack.

Here Jack has the highest rank, so he becomes interim commander.

"Our preset airdrop location is Wumang Town, and the assembly point is the church in the town. It seems that our pilot has lost his way. Not to mention the church, there is not even a ghost here." Jack was in the mood to look around at this time environment of.

Don't worry, Jack and the others must have deviated from the assembly point, and it was quite far away.

"Don't we have a guide—" Sergeant Nelson couldn't help much.

"I asked just now. We are about ten kilometers away from Wumang Town." Jack was also helpless. In the era without GPS, airdrops were so unreliable.

Then let's go. Fortunately, Dolly has a mule, which can help carry spare machine gun barrels and bullets. Jack has packed two big bags, and everyone's load will be much easier immediately.

When Jack was trying to make his way, the landing craft of the marines had already washed up on the beach.

The resistance of the Germans was very weak. The landing field of "Operation Dragoon" was 90 kilometers long. Within this range, except for Toulon, the German army only deployed six battalions.

This is really not the deliberate negligence of Johannes Blaskowitz, the German commander in charge of the defense of southern France. His most elite troops have been transferred to Normandy for reinforcements. Most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and the mobile force is only the 30th Armored Division.

The G Army Group under Blaskowitz is composed of German second-line troops and servants, including four Russian infantry battalions. Most of these soldiers are from Kievan Rus.

The 7th Marine Brigade is the vanguard of the entire army. Their task is to land on the beach and establish a beachhead.

As they boarded the landing craft, many of the Marines were still praying for the best.

It was really smooth. The landing craft did not encounter any attack on the way to the beach. The Germans did not have as many mines as expected. This is normal. Important ports will have more mines.

The landing craft in southern Africa are powerful, and many landing craft rushed directly onto the beach, so the marines on them didn't even get wet when they boarded the beach.

This is indeed very lucky, knowing that the Germans have a defensive position nearby.

When the marines approached the defensive position, the flag of Free France was suddenly displayed on the defensive position. It turned out that the guerrillas had already controlled the position. Nearly 30 German soldiers in charge of the defense were all killed, and several of them died in obvious ways. Shot in the back.

This is also normal. In Italy, the German army would rather surrender to the Allies than fall into the hands of Italian guerrillas.

As a captive of the Allied forces, although he had to undergo reform through labor, he was able to survive.

If it falls into the hands of the guerrillas, there is a high probability that they will be hanged, and they will be tortured inhumanely before death. When the Germans tortured and killed the prisoners, they used all kinds of tricks, and finally regretted it when it was their turn.

At this time, it is useless to regret. Even if they become prisoners of the Allied forces, it is still the guerrillas who guard them.

So there is revenge for revenge, and revenge for injustice.

"God bless, you are finally here. We have been looking forward to you day and night for four years." The guerrilla leader Josh was very excited, crying and laughing while hugging Adelaide from Durban.

"It's a good thing we didn't come too late. We delayed for some time in North Africa. We blame those damn British." Adelaide knew how to gain the favor of the French.

"That's right, that's it. Britain is the worst country in the world, greedy and shameless, capricious, cunning and hypocritical—" Josh immediately became his confidant.

Regardless of whether Britain is the worst country, the status quo in Germany is terrible.

This defensive position is the right battery, but like Normandy, the artillery on the battery is actually camouflaged with concrete poles, and the Germans carefully painted it, and it looks black from a distance, just like steel Same.

In addition, the equipment is not in good condition. There is only one machine gun in this position defended by almost 30 German troops, and it is an old-fashioned Maxim. There is also a shortage of rifles. None.

"Where are we going to fight next? We can be a guide." Josh was so emotional that he wanted to fight all the way to Paris.

"Don't worry, our task is to establish a beachhead——" Adelaide looked at the surrounding environment, feeling lost: "—now it seems that our mission has been completed."

The German defensive position was set up on a high hill. Since the previous battle was not fierce, many facilities on the position can still be used, just turn the machine gun to the muzzle.

Adelaide looked down on the German Maxim, and ordered the machine gunners to set up the general-purpose machine guns. At this time, the amphibious tanks also went ashore, and soon high-level dual-purpose machine guns and automatic grenade launchers were sent over.

Now I am completely relieved, even if the German armored forces come to attack, Adelaide is confident in defending it.

Of course, machine guns and grenades are not easy to use against German tanks, but the Allies have bombers here, which are the big killers against tanks.

While Adelaide was deploying its defense, Patch and Devers were toasting in the dining room of the battleship "Richelieu".

Now the "Dragon Cavalry" operation has just started, and it is far from the time to celebrate, but Patch and Devers don't care, at least it has made a good start, and it is worth celebrating.

"The German defense is like a balloon, and it will collapse at the first touch." Patch is very happy that the only American infantry division has also participated in today's operation. They are also progressing smoothly and are consolidating the beachhead.

Damn it if it doesn't go well.

On the 90-kilometer-long landing field, there were only six battalions of defenders. The first wave of attacking troops on the Allied side alone was almost 8 people. One person can drown the Germans alive by spitting.

So then Devers raised his glass to thank Sir Wilson.

"Without the containment of the coalition forces in Normandy, we would never be able to go so smoothly, so we have to pay homage to Normandy." When Devers spoke, his eyes kept looking at Wilson.

Wilson remained silent with a sullen face, clenched a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, looking like he really wanted to stab Devers to death with a fork.

"Drink less, we have to work hard in the future, and it is far from the time to celebrate." Mike Tolan didn't drink, and he is most concerned about Toulon now.

The battle at Toulon was ten times more intense than all other landing sites combined.

The commandos are still very powerful. Their sudden actions protected the port facilities of Toulon to the greatest extent. The Germans installed more than 60 key positions of explosives. Only three were detonated, and the others were protected by commandos and guerrillas. stand up.

The worst battles took place in naval ammunition depots.

The ammunition depot has high requirements for defense. In an unusually strong building, the German army has nearly 500 troops in the ammunition depot. The commandos were afraid of causing a big explosion when attacking, so they did not dare to use heavy weapons. Surround yourself first.

The Germans can't get out of the ammunition depot. If they attack by force, they will have to pay a huge price. The Germans are really in a hurry. If the Germans detonate the ammunition in the ammunition depot, then everyone will die together.

The information provided by the guerrillas showed that there were at least 150 tons of explosives in the navy's ammunition depot. If these explosives were detonated, everyone would have to fly into the sky with the ammunition depot.

"Surrender, German brothers, we promise that after you surrender, we will give you treatment that matches your status." Shen Ming took the initiative to try to get the Germans to put down their weapons.

There was no response from the other side.

"If you insist on not surrendering, then the French army or guerrillas may attack next. You know what the result will be. A Senegalese army has been ordered to kill you all. "Shen Ming's coercion and lure will also have an effect on the German second-line troops or the slave army.

If you switch to the elite German army, you may not be able to accept this set.

In the last World War, Germany believed the words of the British and French and voluntarily surrendered.

We all know what happened next.

Now the Germans will not be fooled, they would rather fight to the death.

"Come on, don't scare us with death, we are not afraid!" Finally there was a response from the other side.

"I know you are not afraid. You are all warriors. You have fulfilled your responsibilities. Now is the time for you to think about yourself and your family. The war that belongs to you is over, whether it ends with death or as a prisoner. Think Missing your family, they are still waiting for you to come home, looking forward to—" Shen Ming was worried, another adjective for rigorous would be stubborn.

"Sir, I found this in the German's office—" Two subordinates panted and brought over a gramophone.

Shen Ming's eyes lit up, music is a good thing.

"Is there a record? It's best to have a German record——" Shen Ming also wanted to play the besieged.

"Of course—" The soldier happily presented the treasure with a whole burden on his back.

Compared with the technology that the Germans are proud of, Germany has made a lot of contributions to music. Many famous musicians, such as Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Schumann, etc., are all German.

"I'll see what's there-"Brandenburg Concerto", this one doesn't work, and "Fate" doesn't work either. Maybe the Germans are more excited after listening to it. What is this? Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" ", this is good, let's play this—" Shen Ming's art appreciation ability is not bad, the key is that these world famous songs are really too impressive.

Then put on The Wedding March.

There are two well-known "Wedding Marches", the cheerful and passionate one by Mendelssohn, and the solemn and solemn one, which seems to be more suitable for the character of the Germans in terms of style, but unfortunately there is no record.

As the music sounded, a magical scene happened, and the whole city seemed to be quiet, only the melodious music echoed over the port.

The effect was really good. When the song was played halfway, a German soldier suddenly stood up behind a window in the ammunition depot building.

If during the battle, as long as the Germans dared to show their heads, they would be accurately shot by snipers from the Allied forces.

At this moment, the precision shooters of the Allies seemed to be immersed in the beautiful music and did not shoot.

Shen Ming didn't speak anymore, even if this move was useless, Shen Ming didn't regret it, it was a baptism of souls for everyone.

Humanity in war is more precious than in peacetime.

Southern African directors often use this technique to reflect on war when they make films.

Whether the effect is good or not, let’s not talk about it. Anyway, the southern Africans love peace.

At the end of the song, the Germans did not walk out of the ammunition depot and surrender.

The German soldiers who stood up voluntarily just shrank back behind the window.

Shen Ming looked at his watch, it was two o'clock in the afternoon, he was a little hungry, he hadn't eaten anything since morning.

Boom—boom boom—

Suddenly, there was a series of violent explosions in the ammunition depot.

Shen Ming's heart was in his throat for a moment, even music could not change his will to die, and he didn't have any humanity anymore.
