Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2488 History is always strikingly similar

The bearded man was dazzled by the victory, and felt that he had tens of millions of troops, tens of thousands of tanks and planes, and he could do whatever he wanted.

This is actually floating clouds. Tens of millions of troops are terrifying. The United States has mobilized more than 800 million troops. If Southern Africa goes all out, tens of millions of troops will be ready in ten days. The bearded man will fight against the whole world with one country. Still not realistic.

Compared with military strength, the threat posed by the atomic bomb is more practical. Roosevelt declared at the beginning of the meeting that the United States will soon have an atomic bomb, which set the tone for the St. Petersburg Conference. In fact, southern Africa is the killer hiding in the dark. There is no claim to have an atomic bomb. In fact, all countries have objective evaluations of the strength of southern Africa. The only question is how many there are.

Rock was watertight. When Winston and the bearded man asked, Rock just smiled and didn't speak. He was absolutely unpredictable, and Roosevelt was also confused.

"You must have atomic bombs. The key is how many are there, and whether they can stop the Russians' ambitions—" Winston was worried. He was very pessimistic and lacked a sense of security.

"I can't tell you how many, but I can promise that southern Africa is absolutely capable of preventing the outbreak of World War III!" Rock was confident that no one could ignore the threat of the atomic bomb.

Again, in all previous wars, the decision makers stayed in the rear where there was no security threat, so they could naturally be unscrupulous.

Now the situation is fundamentally different. It is not safe to stay in the rear. The combination of rockets and atomic bombs in southern Africa can completely destroy the enemy's command center. The lack of accuracy can be compensated by power. The power of the little boy is only 20 Ton level, the nuclear bomb in southern Africa has a power of more than one million tons, and one can destroy the entire Berlin.

So Roque is really not worried. Even if the United Kingdom and the United States throw their hands at the mouse, and Russia is crazy, southern Africa is capable of directly ending the war.

"For the sake of world peace, we can consider accepting the conditions of the Russians." Roosevelt has no bottom line, and the bearded man is now asking not only for the Black Sea, but also Eastern Europe including Romania and Bulgaria, and the Atlantic Ocean including Finland, Norway and Germany. Coastal countries, and even several ice-free ports in Asia.

It was even hard for Rock to understand what gave the bearded man the confidence to speak like a lion.

"No, the only way we can make concessions lies in Germany, and it still requires us to do a lot of work. The Poles may not accept our plan." Rock doesn't want to die without a problem. If he can restrain the bearded man, he will pay some price is also acceptable.

"Don't consider the mood of the Poles. This is not the key to the problem. The key lies in the beard." Winston is good at grasping the main contradiction. He is actually an appeasementist and can sacrifice the interests of his allies at any time.

"Are you guys free? I have a lot of work, so I can't waste too much time in St. Petersburg." Rock didn't want to bargain with the bearded man. St. Petersburg is the bearded man's home field.

The bearded man's ambitions swelled with the Russian army's victories on the battlefield.

After the Battle of Volgograd, Russia launched a series of counterattacks on the battlefield. Because the frequency of counterattacks was too frequent, the Russians didn’t even have time to give these battles a nice name, so this series of battles was simply called Stalin’s assault. It has Russian characteristics. …

Even if Southern Africa counterattacked, Rock was not arrogant enough to call the attack of the Southern African army Locke's counterattack.

Winston successfully implemented the "Overlord" operation. The Allied forces have now invaded the territory of Belgium. Winston was not arrogant enough to call the Allied offensive the "Marlborough Offensive".

Roosevelt is quieter. He is now focusing all his energy on the US election, and he is really not in the mood to compete with Roque for German resources.

While Russia and the Ottoman Republic faced off on the border, the Allied forces on the Western Front continued to advance.

The conflict between Russia and the Ottoman Republic did not affect the cooperation on the frontal battlefield. The main force of Germany was shrinking and returned to Germany to prepare for the final decisive battle with the Allies. The pressure on the Western and Eastern Fronts decreased at the same time.

Under the pressure of Russia's continuous advance, the Allied Forces on the Western Front finally temporarily put aside their differences and established the Joint Chiefs of Staff Command.

The United States is unwilling to give up military guidance, and the United Kingdom is even more unwilling. Needless to say, southern Africa. Therefore, under the premise of balancing the interests of all parties, the Allied Forces on the Western Front established the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Patton, the highest-ranking field marshal, served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Eisenhower should have received a warning from the United States, and he has restrained himself a lot in recent times.

The British army is still rebellious. Winston's control over the army is not as stable as he imagined. Montgomery is the first to be unconvinced.

Patton did not expose Montgomery at the coalition headquarters, but instead submitted a report to London on what Montgomery had done during this period.

Every famous general has countless scandals.

After winning the North African campaign, Patton Jr. was slapped to the end for slapping a sentry. If it weren't for the U.S. military, there was no one available, and Patton Jr. would most likely be laid off to death.

Now that Patton Jr. has been reactivated, his temper has calmed down a lot, but Montgomery's problem has reappeared. After the Battle of Caen, the British army began to perform poorly, lacking the will to fight from top to bottom.

Eisenhower was also dissatisfied with the performance of the U.S. military, because the U.S. military performed poorly in Operation "Overlord", Eisenhower lost the Supreme Command of the Allied Forces, and now Eisenhower has a new target .

In the First World War, the old Pershing commanded the U.S. troops to rush to the European battlefield, and the U.S. troops who were eager to show off suffered heavy losses in the Liege Fortress. This became the most painful memory for all U.S. military officers.

Now the Liege Fortress has once again become a touchstone to test the combat effectiveness of the US military. In order to wash away the shame of the First World War, Eisenhower is determined to win the Liege Fortress with a hearty victory and prove himself again.

There is nothing new in history. The French built the Maginot Line on the border between France and Germany before the outbreak of the Franco-German War in order to guard against German raids.

To accommodate the mood of the Allies, the Maginot Line did not include the French and Belgian borders.

After the outbreak of the Franco-German War, the German army invaded France through the Ardennes Forest. The Maginot Line did not play any role, but this does not mean that the Maginot Line was not strong enough.

On the contrary, it was precisely because the Maginot Line was too strong that the German army could only temporarily avoid the edge. …

After the Battle of Paris, the German defense line in northern France quickly collapsed, and the Maginot Line became the last bastion of the German army.

Patton and Eisenhower also had to sigh at the strength of the Maginot Line at this time, and after sighing, they had to turn their attention to Belgium.

For the Allies to invade Germany, bypassing the Maginot Line was also the best option.

"So, to invade Germany, we must take the Liege Fortress!" Patton looked at the map at a loss. The location of the Liege Fortress is really important.

"Yes, that's it. Only by taking the Fortress of Liege can we successfully invade Germany. The only question now is whether our army or the US army will attack the Fortress of Liege—" Oscar was also worried, the Belgian The Liege Fortress was originally built to prevent the German invasion, but now it has become the biggest obstacle for the Allied forces.

"Send a telegram to General Eisenhower, the time has come for the U.S. military to make a contribution, if they still want to prove themselves." Patton also wanted Eisenhower to prove himself, and the British took the initiative to play badly in order to reduce casualties , since the Americans want to show off, then give Eisenhower a chance.

Eisenhower can't fight.

After the outbreak of the European War, the southern African army has been invincible from North Africa to East Asia, and then from East Asia to the European continent.

So here comes the problem.

The southern African army is invincible, so how many records can the US military have?

Needless to say in North Africa, when the Allied forces counterattacked across the board, only the US military suffered a defeat. As a result, Eisenhower has been unable to hold his head up in front of Patton until now.

"Where is George? Send George to the Liege Fortress!" Eisenhower made the most correct choice.

Barton Jr. is not perfect and will make mistakes.

However, in the American battle order, even if Patton is not the first, he will be second. Therefore, when Eisenhower encounters difficulties, he immediately thinks of Patton Jr.

"The fortress of Liege is well-defended. The German army has at least 10 troops in the fortress of Liege. Due to the terrain constraints, only two regiments can be dispatched for each attack, and tanks cannot participate in the battle. Therefore, the best solution is to put the fortress of Liege Surround us, and we will directly attack the German mainland." When Patton Jr. received this mission, the first reaction in his mind was the setbacks encountered by the US military at the Liege Fortress during World War I.

The Liege Fortress is the nemesis of the US military. In the last world war, the US military lost nearly 10 people in order to conquer the Liege Fortress.

This time, how much does Eisenhower want to pay?

One hundred thousand——

20?
Patton Jr. shuddered.

The current U.S. military regards the southern African military as its mentor in everything, and no matter what it does, it always follows the southern African military.

The terrain of the Liege Fortress is difficult, and the armored units of the large corps cannot be deployed. If the U.S. military wants to attack by force, they can only use crowd tactics. How can Patton Jr. accept this.

"I don't care what method you use, three days and 72 hours, I can only give you so much time." Eisenhower is essentially a civilian officer. He only saw how the US military attacked in World War I in the battle report Liege fortress, no personal experience.

"Sorry, I can't do it—" Patton Jr. was Pershing's adjutant in the First World War, and he knew very well the bloody level of attacking the fortress of Liege. …

But if he accepts this order, the crowd tactics will be the only choice for Patton Jr.

"You are tired, you need a good rest now—" Eisenhower did not explain how important the Liege Fortress was to him.

Then hit!
Eisenhower mobilized 7 American divisions, coordinated with two British divisions, and two southern African divisions, preparing to launch an attack on the Liege Fortress.

There is actually no need for so many troops. Liege Fortress is not a landing site, and it is impossible to deploy too many troops at the same time. To deal with the hard tortoise shell of Liege Fortress, ten tons of aerial bombs are more effective.

Of course, if Rock is willing, it will be more effective to use the atomic bomb on the Liege Fortress.

But in that case, the list of people who hate southern Africa will be extended again. The southern African expeditionary force came to Europe to save the world, not to spread hatred.

While the Allies were preparing to attack, the defenders of the Liege Fortress were also preparing for a deadly battle.

Even if the German army suffered a crushing defeat, there are still people willing to be loyal to Mustache.

Royce Brant, the general who defended the fortress of Liege, was just such a person.

Royce Brant Junker was born in a military family, graduated from the Imperial Army University, participated in the First World War, and served in the army for more than 30 years.

Before the Allied forces launched an attack on the Liege Fortress, Royce Brant received a telegram from Mustache, who hoped that Royce Brant would stick to the last minute and faithfully fulfill his duty as a soldier. duty.

Royce Brant had a will to die, and before the battle broke out, he wrote a suicide note to explain his funeral, and then devoted himself to the battle of defending the city without distraction.

The current Liege Fortress is larger than the Liege Fortress in the Belgian era. The twelve blockhouse groups in its core area can all be connected by underground railways. The defense of the blockhouses has also been greatly improved compared with the Belgian period. In addition to the [-]-meter concrete casting layer, there are also Leimu and sandbags to strengthen the defense. Even if it is directly hit by a large-caliber artillery, it will not cause a devastating blow to the overall structure.

As usual, Eisenhower first launched a fire attack on the Liege Fortress. The British army also went all out and dispatched the Lancaster bomber with the largest bomb load. In just two hours, it destroyed 4500 tons of bombs. Bombs were poured on the fortress of Liege.

With this level of firepower, according to Eisenhower's understanding, all the defenders in the Liege Fortress should have been killed.

However, when the American soldiers armed with M1 Garand rifles approached the Liege Fortress, the Liege Fortress, which became like a dead city, suddenly came alive miraculously because of the devastating firepower.

Countless scythes were like the God of Reaper who harvested life, mowing down rows of American soldiers with sickles in hand.

Dense minefields exploded one after another, seemingly endless. American soldiers fled left and right like headless chickens, but could not find a suitable shelter.

There were actually Leopard tanks on the German positions to assist in the battle. The unprepared American soldiers were like babies who had no power to resist a heavily armed man.

It took only half an hour for a regiment of attacking troops to be completely lost.

As if he didn't see it, Eisenhower ordered the troops to continue to attack.

This is where it is, 10,000+ will not die, is it worthy of the prestigious name of Liege Fortress?
