Chapter 788 Good News of Victory
"Boom!" The large-caliber grenade fell from the sky and hit the British position accurately. In an instant, a terrible scream came.
The German artillery fire is too terrible! It was simply unpredictable. A shell hit the British position. In an instant, the position was full of ghosts and wolves.
As the first shell fell, more shells fell from the sky, and what was even more terrifying was that there were continuous rockets among them!
In order to attack London, Germany has long been fully prepared, and all kinds of artillery fire have been deployed. When the position was just conquered, the direct use of tanks was to surprise, but now, there is no need to retain any force. The position of , first smash it and then say it!
At the same time, their tank troops were blocked by the British man-made swamps, which made the German artillery even more angry. Now, they want to fight the British!
At this time, more than ten kilometers away from the location of the exchange of fire here, on the Teddington Barrage, there is also a scene of the aftermath.
It has become a low tide, and just now, in the process of rising tide, the tide is surging continuously along the opening, and at the same time, the opening is getting bigger and bigger!
Standing on the dam, watching the opening keep getting bigger, the engineers were extremely nervous.
"Quick, throw the sandbags!" Chloe shouted loudly, if they didn't reduce the gap quickly, there would be a danger of collapse!
Throw sandbags! Here, sandbags have been prepared for a long time. After hearing Chloe's order, the sappers immediately hurriedly threw them into the hole.
However, to no avail!
When the sandbag was thrown down, it was immediately washed away by the tide, and the river bank here would collapse at any time!
Can't wait any longer!
"Car, start the car immediately!" Chloe continued to give the order. At this time, his voice was also trembling. If the entire dam collapsed, they would be washed away in an instant!
"Buzz, buzz." An engineer started the car, which was an ordinary six-wheeled truck. At this time, there were a few large rocks behind the truck. He stepped on the accelerator, and the truck slowly backed away. back.
The rear of the car, from the opening, is getting closer and closer! Just when the rear wheel was almost a meter away from the opening, he opened the door and jumped from it!
The truck rolled down with a whole load of stones.
Really useful! The truck was stuck in the place where the opening was torn open, and it no longer expanded!
"Go on, go on!" Chloe shouted, the protection hole will not get bigger, then you need to drop a few more cars!
The second truck continued to fall backwards, and then the driver also jumped off.
However, he slipped!
Originally, the top of the embankment was not wide, only for a car to pass through. Now he slipped under his feet, and instantly, unable to control his body, he fell into the river on the side!
"George!" Everyone shouted, they watched George fall into the water, and was washed away in an instant, and then, a few waves hit, and George was nowhere to be seen!
This soldier can't swim!
They didn't go down to save either. In this case, if they went down, they just paid one more person's sacrifice.
The hole was finally brought under control. Chloe stood on the dam, looking at the predetermined area in the distance, submerged by the tide, and his heart was in a trance at this time.
Succeeded, but why not feel any joy?
Chloe's heart was extremely melancholy, and the cheers from his own position in the distance could not even resonate with him.
When the high tide phase had passed, the tide had receded, and the raging tide had subsided, and they began to re-strengthen the dykes.
At the headquarters in London, Hobert had received news of victory.
Pushing open the window, looking at the empty city, looking at the sun that is about to set in the west, at this time, Hobert is also extremely melancholy.
This is already his last resort. In one day, all of them have been used. The German tanks are temporarily trapped, but will the Germans be reconciled?
"Order the troops to dispatch once at night to defeat the German armored troops and snatch their equipment." Hobert put down his worries and issued a new order.
Those German tanks that entered the swampy area could not move for a few days, and the new German tank troops did not dare to move up rashly. Therefore, tonight, we have a chance.
If we can grab the German tanks, we can hold on for a while.
I don't know when the reinforcements from the United States will arrive!
"Telegram to the Prime Minister with news of this victory," Hobart continued.
Now, the whole of the United Kingdom needs the news of victory to boost morale. At first, the French regarded Paris as an undefended city and let the Germans directly occupy it. The United Kingdom will never do this, even if it is to destroy London. , and will not give up to Germany in vain!
When the news reached Churchill's ears, Churchill's team was still dozens of kilometers away from Liverpool.
"Victory, Prime Minister Churchill, our army has won an unprecedented victory in London!" When the car stopped, a general held a telegram and said happily to Churchill: "The entire two German armored divisions were We were stuck in the swamp, and General Hobert decided to launch a counterattack at night and eat the German Panzer Division!"
He was excited.
Since the war broke out on the European continent, the whole world has been shrouded in the terrifying threat of German tanks, and the German armored forces have been rampant and invincible.
How tyrannical are the Germans? Up to now, except for the tanks damaged by mines, the German main battle tanks have hardly been penetrated on the battlefield. The Germans have firmly maintained the superiority of the armored forces, and they have never fought. defeat!
No army has ever captured the equipment of a German Panzer Division on the battlefield, not a single tank!
But now, something has finally changed. Our side is about to eat two German reorganizers. This is even more memorable. The Germans have turned from prosperity to decline, I am afraid it is at this time!
Hearing this good news, Churchill was also extremely excited: "Team, speed up, and after arriving in Liverpool, I want to speak! I want to tell the people of this amazing good news! We are about to usher in this national defense. The turning point of the war!"
When he left London, Churchill was still very lost, and now, he has regained his confidence that he must first have the belief that he must win, and then he will finally win!
