Chapter 174: Request support

Badajoz, the cruel battle is still going on.
"Boom!" A CV33 tank was destroyed by fierce fire from the opposite side!
Three or four CV33 tanks were lost one after another, and the Noodle Army couldn't stand it. The tanker was in reverse gear and quickly retreated, while the others retreated like a tide.
"The man on the other side has anti-tank guns and anti-tank guns! We have already destroyed several tanks and cannot continue to fight like this!" In the command post, an Italian officer shouted loudly.
"It's time for our cavalry brother to launch an attack." Another Italian officer said to the people around him.
This person is terrible. He has only half of them. One of his arms, one leg, and one eye are gone. At this time, he is sitting on a chair, but his other eye is shining. His other arm and thigh are extremely strong.
Milan-Asri, the leader of the Moroccan cavalry from Africa, took his cavalry to participate in this attack on Badajoz.
Hearing what the Italian said, Asri shook his head: "My cavalry is used in field battles, not for attacking defensive positions with heavy machine gun firepower."
The cavalry has galloped on the European battlefield for thousands of years. However, the appearance of the Maxim heavy machine gun changed everything. The cruel battles in World War I proved that a Maxim heavy machine gun can block an infantryman. Division, the attack of a cavalry regiment!
To charge toward the heavy machine gun position is not brave, it is death.
General Royata’s face was ugly. A few days ago, he had promised Franco that he would just hand over Badajoz to the Italian army. But now, he has realized that the fighting here is definitely not. As smooth as he imagined!
Those international columns!
"General, good news!" Just then, a voice came: "Merida has been taken down!"
Merida? Roata was taken aback for a moment, there was no army to fight Merida, right? Could it be that Franco secretly sent troops? Impossible, Franco's most combative force is also attacking Badajoz with his own army.
"Which army won it?" Roata asked.
"It's from the Vulture Legion."
Vulture Legion? They just took it down by bombing?
"The Vulture Army came to an armored battalion, and they attacked Merida. Now, General Franco has received the news that Merida has been taken down, and is organizing an army to take it over."
Armored Battalion! A battalion took Merida! Royata couldn't help but feel the hot on his face. How did the Germans do it?
However, after Meili reached his hand, Na Badajoz has become an isolated city, here will lose the support from Madrid, here is sure to be defeated by his side!
Taking Merida is of great strategic significance!
"General Cyric, you are such a genius!" Hearing the compliment in his ears, Cyric's face was also filled with a smile: "It was just a surprise attack on the Republican Army, which happened to be the battle of Badajoz. , Attracted Merida's defenders, and Merida reached the empty city."
In front of Cyric's eyes, it was Jose. He almost became a microphone for Franco and Cyric to communicate. After receiving news of the great victory here, Jose hurried over.
Jose’s respect for Cyric is from the heart, and the battles have fully proved his commanding genius. Such a person depends not on luck, but on strength!
Although the defenders were attracted, there were still thousands of troops left! And Cyric's army ran for hundreds of kilometers and directly hit Merida, which everyone did not expect.
Before coming, even Franco had been complimenting, Cyric was simply a born military strategist!
"Now, Badajoz can't attack for a long time, General Franco wants to ask your armored battalion to help fight Badajoz." Jose said cautiously.
On the surface, the Vulture Legion is under Franco's command, but in fact, the Vulture Legion is completely autonomous and does not listen to Franco's orders.
Franco had no money and no promises. Germany sent troops out of their own interests. The Italian intervention army was also paid for by Italy. Therefore, Franco could only request it.
If Cyric is unwilling, he can use excuses such as lack of ammunition to stop him at any time.
"Okay, I can give orders." Cyric said: "I don't know one day I can sit with General Franco. There are some things, it's better to talk to him in person."
Sit down with Franco!
When Cyric first came, Franco came personally, but at the time, it was just a welcome ceremony without any substantive content.
Now, it is different. Cyric has shown the powerful combat effectiveness of the Vulture Legion. In the Spanish Civil War, the Vulture Legion will play an irreplaceable role!
So, Spain, must show more sincerity? I can't treat my brothers from afar!
"Okay, I will definitely convey your meaning to General Franco." Jose said.
Cyric nodded: "Okay, it would be great if Franco was like you."
Same as yourself? Jose's face changed in an instant, and then he recovered: "General Cyric, you can laugh."
Cyric watched Jose leave, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com put on another expression: "Get the heads of Seymour and ROWAK."
Although there is nothing to say about Germany and Italy's involvement in the Spanish Civil War, there is always a fig leaf. At least the government must get rid of the relationship on the bright side.
In this regard, Germany has done quite well.
Spain-Morocco Transport Company, referred to as Seymour Co., Ltd., on August 2 this year, the day after the company opened, it made its first business: transporting Moroccan troops to Spain.
The head of this company is Johannes Bernhardt, a German businessman living in Morocco and a member of the Foreign Affairs Department.
The Seymour company is responsible for transportation. At the same time, an export company called "Raw Materials and Commodity Purchasing Co., Ltd.", or ROWAK for short, was established in Germany. This company specializes in dealing with the Spanish Seymour company.
In this way, one is responsible for procurement and the other is responsible for transportation. Each ship of materials shipped to Franco is handled by these two companies. The head of ROWAK, von Jagwitz, also works for the Foreign Affairs Department.
