Chapter 587: Save the Expeditionary Force

"Without air supremacy, if our fleet is dispatched, it can only be reduced to the prey of the Germans." Lieutenant Colonel Jack Klaustown said: "General, we cannot dispatch warships now!"
Now, the battle ahead was very dangerous. It was noon. The French team on the opposite side had all surrendered to the Germans. Only the British Expeditionary Army remained, still fighting battles.
In the surrounding area, hundreds of thousands of German troops were constantly shrinking the encirclement circle, squeezing the living space of the British expeditionary force, their encirclement circle was shrinking continuously, and British army soldiers died almost every second.
In this case, the navy cannot wait any longer and must dispatch immediately!
Ramsey holds this view. He is very concerned about the important situation. He knows that the soldiers of the expeditionary army are the last hope of the United Kingdom. Therefore, he very much wants the navy to dispatch immediately and use naval guns to bombard the opposite land. The German team on board opened a gap for the Army's breakthrough.
However, other naval officers strongly opposed this.
The air force has worked hard, but it is of no use. The fierce battle over the strait is almost coming to an end. The Spitfire on our side has been shot down by hundreds, while the German fighter on the opposite side has lost less than two. Ten planes, such an exchange ratio, is unbearable for the Royal Air Force.
As a result, Admiral Dowding was already retreating. He repeatedly pointed out to Churchill that if the air force is eliminated over the strait, the air force will no longer be able to assume its due role when encircling the English mainland.
This even made Churchill hesitate.
Everyone is hesitating, is there really no hope for the expeditionary army?
"If you want to act, you can only wait until the evening." Lieutenant Colonel Jack Klaustang continued: "At night, the other party could not see the sea clearly and could not accurately aim at us. At the same time, the coastline was too long. If we open a gap, there will be soldiers surviving."
In the absence of air supremacy, during the day is not enough, you can only wait until night!
But how much did the British Expeditionary Force have to sacrifice in order to wait till night? Moreover, how many people can be rescued in one night?
All people are silent, they know that no matter what choice is made, it is quite difficult.
As for the soldiers on the front line, every minute of hesitation is blood and death.
"Da da da." Just behind the Panther tank, several German soldiers opened fire violently with their MP38 in their hands.
They mobilized this tank. Of course, they would not just let this tank charge on its own. Behind the tank, there were also some infantry. They could also provide the tank with the safest guarantee.
A soldier keenly spotted a British soldier rushing up ahead. He saw that the opponent was holding a bundle of grenades and knew that the opponent was going to blow up the tank, so he immediately fired his own bullets intensively. !
Private George was swept down by a shuttle bullet, shaking his body a few times, and fell to the ground.
At the same time, Harold here was also using his machine gun to shoot at the opposite side, killing the exposed German soldier, and both sides were hit almost at the same time.
"George!" Harold shouted loudly. He watched George's body fall, and he was very anxious. When he died, he could not complete the task!
As if he had heard his call, even though George had fallen, he was still crawling forward a little bit.
Fire cover! Harold changed into a new magazine and continued to shoot at the opposite side.
"Boom!" At this moment, the opponent's tank gun fired violently. Harold lowered his head in time, and the 88mm grenade lifted all the dirt around him. In the dirt, he followed. Only a broken arm.
Harold, lost one of his arms! At this time, severe pain came. He endured the pain and continued to use the other arm to stabilize the machine gun and fire!
"Da da da!" Behind, a German soldier showed his head again, and the bullet hit George's body, and George stopped moving.
The track of the tank crushed George's body, and Harold behind him also felt his body as if it was hollowed out. His body began to become cold, and his blood stained the entire position. At the moment before he lost consciousness, he looked at the tank on the opposite side and rumbling up.
Their position was lost.
In later generations, Harold was a hero in the Great Retreat, and was awarded the Victoria Cross, the only highest medal awarded by the United Kingdom in the Dunkirk Retreat, in recognition of bravery.
He commanded his company, withstood ten hours of fierce shelling, repelled the German assaults, and always defended the position. When the flanking friendly and neighboring troops appeared gaps, he took the initiative to lead 36 soldiers to rush to support , Repelled at least 500 German troops. Finally, when his troops ran out of ammunition ~EbookFREE.me~ The core stronghold of the position he was defending was destroyed by German artillery fire. This led to the remaining 8 officers and soldiers, trudged 16,000 in the water as deep as the chin. Mi, returned to the back position, and fought again without rest.
But now, Harold does not have the bravery performance in history, or that he fought bravely, but unfortunately, in front of the German tanks, the British team is like a scum.
The British position is constantly shrinking. When they are squeezed together, they don't need to attack, as long as they use rocket launchers, they can all be killed in the encirclement.
The British Expeditionary Force is experiencing its hardest day!
In order to rescue them, London made its best efforts, and Churchill, who would never compromise, even released his request for help to distant Moscow.
Kremlin.
Here is the heart of the Red Empire, especially now. After several years of major purge, all opposition parties have been purged. Everyone who remains has great respect for the great leader Stalin. And Stalin has always lived here.
With a big beard, Stalin was in good spirits. At this time, he was listening to the words of the British Ambassador Guise.
"Great leader, you are very wise. You should be able to see that if Germany unifies the whole of Europe, it will be the biggest threat to the Soviet Union, even if not long ago, you and Germany have worked closely together and shared it together. To Poland." Guice came to lobby Stalin in accordance with Churchill's request.
How can we save the British Expeditionary Force? We need to find ways from various aspects, such as persuading the Soviet Union to start war with Germany in the east. Then, if Germany is backed by the enemy, it will definitely divide its forces to the east. Only then can the pressure on our side be reduced and the expeditionary forces can be saved!
