Chapter 1043: 18. "Liberation" (1)

Genius remembers this site's address for one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Retreating is often more difficult than attacking.
Under the pressure of the enemy's continued pursuit, how to deploy the defense of the troops, how to organize the retreat, how to block the enemy, and how to evacuate the civilians-it can be said that this is a job that very much tests the personal capabilities of the commander on the spot and the organizational capabilities of the national army .
The organization of the retreat war is the classic case of Dunkirk, which brought hundreds of thousands of people out of the encirclement. The more tragic is the Cherkassy steel encirclement. The most tragic are probably those organized by the state government, such as the garden Mouth, such as Zhongtiao Mountain, such as Nanjing, such as the burning of Changsha... Anyway, a bunch of people were killed every time, but the enemy troops did not even hurt Mao.
The long convoy did not reach the end at a glance, the sounds of shouting, commanding, inquiring, and scolding were intertwined, the black smoke of burning documents and supplies covered the sky, and the military police who were busy directing the traffic were sweating, engineers They are not much better. They are busy putting explosives-fortifications, bridges, railways, stations, water towers, road signs, warehouse equipment-anything that can be used to capitalize on the enemy and have no time to be evacuated will be destroyed. In addition to the destruction, they also have to ensure the smoothness of the road system throughout the process, to prevent affecting the marching speed of the troops, and to destroy the road facilities after the troops leave. In terms of workload, the engineers are probably the hardest group.
This group of hardworking men is just the tip of the iceberg of the entire retreat.
The most troublesome part of the retreat is actually how to evacuate people and government agencies to ensure that they reach their destination safely. You need to know the specific personnel list, residence, arrange mobile lines, appease and organize the orderly evacuation of people through the grassroots of the community, persuade them to give up unnecessary belongings according to the situation, if necessary, you must dismantle the family, let the crying cry of the family’s old and weak Women and children give priority to boarding a car, appease and even forcefully suppress uncoordinated adult men, to prevent riots, and prepare medical care and food along the way to prevent the flow of refugees from obstructing the military mobilization... Considering that government agencies are also retreating, the level of chaos is also Raised several levels, it is no exaggeration to say that it was a disaster.
Here are just two examples to illustrate. The first was the Battle of France in 1940. After the German Army Group A achieved a breakthrough in the middle road, the French did not try to block the gap, but the road was completely blocked by the Belgian refugees who swarmed in. A vote of the French mobile forces lined up in a long snake array and blocked the road. They were swept by the Stuka dive bomber. As the war situation deteriorated, the same scene was staged in various parts of France; the second was the Battle of Moscow in 1941. From the launch of the Typhoon in September 1941 to December 1941, there were only 2.1 million left in Moscow with a total population of about 4.2 million. In addition to the 800,000 people on the front line, most of them were evacuated to Ural and Tyumen in the rear. These included workers, enterprises, actors, doctors, diplomatic envoys, and even some prisoners were sent to Kuibyshev (most of the rest were shot). The comparison between the two has to be sighed. In terms of organizational ability and rigor, the free Gaul rooster is not to be compared with the Germans. (In the tragic battle of East Prussia, there is only one vote left for the defeated Germans. A large number of people and troops were evacuated), even the Soviet Union under the rule of steel father.
All in all, organizing people to evacuate and retreat is really not an easy task.
Yalfheim does not have to face such problems.
"Alas... May the mother bless the taxpayer."
After receiving the material list from the commander of the engineering battalion, Major Klinger, Parsifal left his name in the signature column.
After the Raiders of Thor's Raiders, Parsifal originally thought that his military career would be over. He would soon be forced to retire or be thrown back to the logistics department to sit on the cold bench. Although this call to call was a bit ugly, he could finally live his long-awaited retirement, and Parsifal was a little bit excited about it.
With such a strong expectation, how disappointed he was when he received the promotion notice.
The reason for the promotion of Parsifal was that he successfully organized the retreat of the garrison troops during the Raiders of Thor, and the damage was reduced to a minimum. In recognition of this achievement, Parsifal was promoted to Air Force University. Along with the promotion order was also his transfer order-or a temporary part-time transfer order is more correct.
From now on, I will order the Parsifal Air Force University to take charge of the retreat of the Rhine Front.
Setting aside technical details, the core content is such a command that contains too much information.
retreat? Rhine Front?
Changed to other young generals with flesh, after reading this order, they immediately set off the table and scolded, "Is this crazy?", "Is the General Staff taking the wrong medicine?". It is important to know that although the Defense Force gave up the first line of defense, its combat power remained intact, and all efforts were made to strengthen it to the second line of defense. With the existing force, it is possible to turn the Rhine Front into a meat grinder and twist the entire Charlemagne Kingdom into a pile of rotten meat. Now you have to retreat without a fight? Are the heads of the big guys above decorations? Do they know the Rhine Front? Behind the Rhine is the entire core industrial area of ​​Yalfheim. The entire national army can fight and the whole line is here. The loss of the Rhine Front means that the war is over!
Parsifal's initial response to this was similar to this ~EbookFREE.me~ but he soon discovered a trace of violation.
Simply put, it is--
"Sir, is this all right?"
Major Klinger glanced left and right, making sure that the surrounding soldiers did not pay attention to this side, and leaned over to Parsifal.
"I don't know if I would ask for the instructions again. I have much more explosives on my side, and I have no time left. Just allow--"
"Major, what is the duty of a soldier?"
"Observe orders! Sir!"
"Very good. Since this part is clearly pointed out above, don't understand without management, just execute."
"Observe!"
Seeing the back of the engineer battalion turned away, Parsifal sighed softly, his side turned to the traffic of the entire highway, and Yu Guang reflected a row of wooden houses, and vaguely saw the closed doors and windows opened a narrow party, A few eyes are peeping towards this side.
The Defense Force’s education of lower-level officers places great emphasis on subjective initiative. In other words, it allows the field commander to let go of tactical adjustments according to the actual situation, rather than dictating one action at a time. For the mechanized modern warfare that changes rapidly, this flexible and adaptable ability is exactly what the grassroots officers need. But sometimes it is inevitable that they will question some incomprehensible instructions. After all, whether they understand it or not, they will resolutely execute the part that the superior clearly orders. Otherwise, Parsifal’s work will not be as easy as it is now.
To be honest, he saw that instruction for a while and he was unable to respond, let alone the officers and soldiers specifically executed below.
In the third part of the evacuation order, the General Staff Department ordered not to evacuate the local human inhabitants, prohibit any forced evacuation, and prohibit the destruction of the property of the aborigines. In the fourth part, it is forbidden for engineers to destroy food storage warehouses, without closing them, and transferring directly to local human residents.
