Chapter 1202 Raid on Denmark
Just after seven o'clock, countless planes appeared in the sky above Aalborg Airport in Denmark.Then, white flowers bloomed in the sky.Soon these flowers floated to the airport with the wind.Then, those flowers disappeared, replaced by a group of heavily armed German soldiers, and the Danish army guarding the airport did not make any resistance, so the German army did not use more troops to take such a A very important airport.

The Junkers of the 1th Squadron of the [-]st Special Transport Aircraft Wing (TP[-]) carried Captain Glick and his [-]th Company of Jaegers across the Baltic Sea to the second target of the German army, Storr. The Strem Bridge, with a total length of [-] kilometers, is the only channel connecting Gesai Island and Zealand Island in the south, that is, connecting Copenhagen.

In the bright sun in the early morning, the long Stolsdrheim Bridge loomed ahead.At 100:[-], Captain Glick signaled for a jump, and within seconds the cabin was empty.The white parachute fluttered down towards the small island of Masnard.There were no gunshots on the ground, and no sirens.It seems that this area is still sleeping in a dream of peace.Like a parachute being packed one by one.Captain Glick and his soldiers landed safely and quietly beside the railway embankment leading to the iron bridge.He first established three machine gun positions on the embankment of the road, because from this road, he could not only straf the Danish coastal positions, but also cover his subordinates from the air to land less than [-] meters away from the concrete roof of the position fortifications. place.However, there was a deathly silence on the Danish army's position opposite.

Seeing this situation, the paratroopers jumped up from the ground, and they didn't want to take the time to open the heavy weapon box next to them.They rushed into the opponent's position with light weapons.Soon these paratroopers swaggered past the enemy sentinels who raised their hands in fright, and then went straight into the depths, disarming the garrison in just a few minutes.

Then a squad of soldiers rode the seized bicycles and rushed to the other end of the iron bridge.The Danish guards defending there also surrendered without firing a single shot.However, to the amazement of the paratroopers, soldiers of the Wehrmacht wearing M35 helmets appeared in front of them.These people rushed to the opposite side of them in this off-road vehicle and truck.It turned out that this was the advance unit of the [-]rd Battalion of the [-]th Infantry Regiment.Similarly, they didn't meet I all the way to get here.Soon the search force and the paratroopers joined together and quickly drove into the small town of Vordinburg, and then occupied a bridge connecting Masnard Island and Zealand Island.They did an excellent job in less than an hour.

The 23rd motorized infantry unit of the German Wehrmacht rushed across several sea-crossing bridges occupied by the German army and rushed towards Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark.On the other side, auxiliary cruisers disguised as cruise ships were loaded with marines and Wehrmacht infantry and drove along the strait to Copenhagen Port at high speed.

At this time, the sky was just dim, and Copenhagen was still in a quiet and harmonious range, but soon this atmosphere was disturbed by the sharp sirens from the pier.Hearing this noise, most of Copenhagen's residents were woken up.So most people came to the pier curiously, and soon this large modern pier was crowded with people, and not far from the breakwater of the port, there were four huge ships like islands. The flagpole of the center hangs the flag of neutral countries such as Sweden.Obviously, they want to enter the port.It's just that before entering the port, it must be guided by a pilot.

It was around six o'clock when Denmark sent out the tugboat and the guide.It took another half an hour for the four ships to sail slowly into the port of Copenhagen.Just when people were preparing to welcome their friends from Sweden, they found out.The swedish flag that had been flying suddenly and slowly lowered, and then a black, red and gold tricolor flag was raised on the mast.

"German navy flag! They are Germans! Germans!" Several Danish sailors shouted loudly after seeing the flag suddenly raised.Several people rushed to the bunker on the shore immediately. They hoped to prevent the Germans from going ashore with the cannons placed in the bunker, but it was too late for them.Because a large number of Germans have already rushed to the opposite bank in small boats.

Seeing this situation, the people on the pier immediately panicked.People who felt the danger of war began to evade in all directions.But this panic made the chaos of the entire dock even worse.Countless people crowded together, but they couldn't leave quickly, and the chaotic crowd made it difficult for the brave Danish sailors to move.

When everyone was in confusion, the tweeter of one of the German ships suddenly sounded: "Copenhagen citizens, we are the navy and army of the Fourth Reich of Germany. Since Denmark is threatened by Britain and France, we are Come to protect you. Don’t worry, we will not do anything that damages the honor of the soldiers. Please cooperate with our actions and don’t attack us. Otherwise, you will be responsible for all the consequences.”

The ship's radio played over and over again, trying to calm down the current chaos on the docks, but the Danes were still in chaos.It was not until the German soldiers landed on the shore and fired a few shots into the sky with their rifles that the whole scene calmed down.

Then the ground forces also began to reach Copenhagen, with little resistance before that.A team of Danish police set up a roadblock at the gate of Copenhagen and fired at the vanguard of the German army with submachine guns and pistols. They successfully burned three German cars, causing about 20 casualties, but this resistance was soon overthrown. The follow-up units of the German army smashed.This is also the only casualty caused by the German army after entering Denmark.At the same time, other German landing forces also landed from strategic locations such as Zealand, Fern, and Falster in Denmark.

At 8 o'clock in the morning of the same day, the German envoy in Copenhagen submitted an ultimatum to Denmark, demanding that Denmark immediately accept "German protection". At 12 o'clock, King Christian X of Denmark was forced to announce his surrender and ordered his guards to stop resisting. Accept the protection of the Germans.

"Your Majesty, our progress in Denmark is going very smoothly, and now the whole of Denmark is under our control!" Admiral Falkensenhorst, who was in charge of the Danish command, reported to Kaiser Wilhelm very happily.

"Yeah! Everything is still within our expectations, the only thing we worry about now is Norway, I hope Quisling can do well, I hope Dieter can succeed, I hope the tragedy of Narvik and Oslo It will not happen to me again!" In the last sentence, William II said it so lightly and so vaguely that no one knew what he was talking about.

While the German army was successfully stationed in Denmark, the air force transport troops marching to Norway encountered a crisis.The report pointed out that the visibility over Oslo and Stavanger is poor, and there are only two airports in Norway. Among them, Forneb Airport in Oslo is the key to the success or failure of the troops who captured the capital.What's more, no matter which route you fly, you have to pass through Skagerrak, but unfortunately, the weather there is even worse.

From the sea surface to the altitude of 6000 meters, there is heavy fog, and there are many layers of dark clouds above the fog.Let’s not talk about the seriousness of the consequences of flying at low altitudes, but if you fly above the clouds at high altitudes, when will you be able to go down through the clouds?Moreover, at a certain time, the ground cannot be seen. Faced with this situation, what should we do?You know, there are rolling mountains in Norway under the clouds now, and the plane shuttles between the mountains.This column of questions was ahead of Lieutenant Colonel Drewes and [-]rd Group, [-]st Special Mission Transport Wing.

At this time, he was leading the first attack wave to Oslo and Forneb airfields.The paratroopers of the 29rd Parachute Jager Battalion commanded by Captain Elihilt were divided into 52 Ju20 aircraft. The closer to the Oslo Fjord, the thicker the fog, sometimes even the wingman of the formation could not be seen, and the visibility was less than [-]. rice.Facing such a complicated situation, Drewes gritted his teeth and controlled himself. He understood how important the task he took on was in the whole battle.

At this time, the commander of the following three units told him an ominous news by ultra-short radio, that three planes broke away from the formation and disappeared strangely.

Faced with this situation, Lieutenant Colonel Drewes could no longer bear such responsibilities, so he ordered his formation to make a 180-degree turn, and at the same time reported to Hamburg by radio: "Headquarters, due to bad weather Alright, decided to turn back and fly to Aalborg."

"Idiot! Let them fly back!" Rudolf Hauss, who was sitting on the side, shouted loudly.

"The clouds over Norway are nothing special. It doesn't matter as long as the troops can reach them. Our fleet to Oslo has already sortied. If we can't quickly occupy the Forneb airfield, all our previous efforts will be in vain. Order Drewes, call He overcomes all difficulties and must fly to the designated place on time, otherwise the military law will be imposed!" Hao Si roared loudly.

"But your Excellency, if this happens, our losses will be heavy, and the Norwegians may have set up an ambush there, and our Junkers and the airborne troops on the planes will become fat on the lips of the Norwegian army. "Freiher, Commander of the Tenth Air Force, the Field Airlift Commander in charge of the Air Force Command, said worriedly.

"No!" Hearing what the other party said, Hao Si shook his head heavily.

"We don't have time, and we can't afford to lose anymore. Telling them that even if they don't occupy the airport, they must make a forced landing is a deadly order." Haus once again refuted the opponent. "Even if all the planes crashed, I still have to fly over. I can still bear this loss."
