The distance of 30 kilometers is not far or close. If you ride a motorcycle, it will take about forty minutes, but if you walk, it will be slower.
If you move forward while searching, the forward speed will be slower.
If someone keeps harassing me again
My God, the marching speed was unbearable.
Kanai Reeves was numb. It had been three hours since he left Reims, and his troops had only advanced less than three kilometers.
If this is the speed of advancement during an attack, then this speed is worth the reward of a military medal, but if it is just the speed of march, then this speed is comparable to a turtle's speed.
But even though he was numb, Kanai Levis did not dare to take the plunge.
About an hour ago, Kanai Reeves couldn't bear the endless harassment of those three-wheelers, so he sent a truck troop to leave the group to pursue them.
The result was despairing. Just five minutes later, Carney Reeves heard the sound of intensive machine gunfire and rapid mortar fire. By the time the German brigade arrived at the place of exchange of fire, the scene was already a mess.
An entire company of troops did not last more than five minutes and were completely wiped out.
Just like the first attack, Kanai Reeves only saw the dust in the sky in the distance, and did not even see the shadow of this army.
This also sounded a wake-up call for Kanai Levis. From then on, Kanai Levis had to ensure safety even if it was slow. Even if he received an order from his superiors to speed up, Kanai Levis would not rush forward.
Yes, it was a rash advance. Kanai Reeves was very sure that although the number of that unit was small, its combat effectiveness was very strong, especially since they were all riding motorcycles. They came and went without a trace, which was comparable to the situation that once shocked the whole of Europe.
Mongol light cavalry.
What is the name of the commander of that army?
Kanai Reeves racked his brains and couldn't remember that awkward name. But a name that was well known in Germany recently came to mind, Qin, well, maybe this is Qin's army.
Carney Reeves probably didn't expect that he was indeed right.
Qin Zhiyuan, who was unaware that someone had guessed it, was inspecting the forward position with Bastian.
Bastian's 32nd Division was a reorganized army division. During the spring offensive, the French army collapsed before it was Bastian's 32nd Division's turn to go to the front line. This was a blessing in misfortune.
Like other French divisions, the 32nd Division had a large number of artillery. Although it was not as ferocious as Qin Zhiyuan's First Division, it was still better than the average German division.
Bastian was jealous of this. When inspecting the artillery positions of the 1st Division, Bastian couldn't help blurting out that the 1st Division was Foch's biological son, and that the 32nd Infantry Division was composed of pure Frenchmen.
At best, a teacher is just a godson.
Qin Zhiyuan explained why a son-in-law is called a son-in-law in the East, and the two of them laughed it off.
Joking aside, when they started working, Qin Zhiyuan and Battisian were both extremely serious, especially the joint between the 1st Division's position and the 32nd Division's position. The two of them inspected with special care.
The location of this joint is also a protrusion. The military map shows that the altitude is 185 meters, so let's call it Highland 185. Highland 185 is defended by the 215th Regiment of the French Army. The leader of the 215th Regiment is named Christopher. Christopher is a very traditional
When he heard that the 32nd Division was going to partner with the Chinese, Christopher was not happy. He believed that the First Division was not worthy of its name, and that the so-called superior combat effectiveness was only created for publicity.
But now Christopher's view of the First Division has changed, because the position built by the soldiers of the 215th Regiment was obviously inferior to the position of the 1st Division next to it. This surprised Christopher and gave him a new understanding of the First Division.
Next to the position of the 215th Regiment is the third regiment led by Liu Zizheng. The leader is Xiang Ankang, who is also a direct descendant of Qin Zhiyuan. When they were on the Victory News, Xiang Ankang and Qin Zhiyuan were in the same class, but they lived in different places.
's cabin.
There is a popular saying in China: A person who attains the Tao, a chicken or a dog, ascends to heaven.
This is the fact. In the current First Division, except for Zhang Tianshou who has returned to Borneo to open a branch base, almost all other officers above the company level are the first wave of people who followed Qin Zhiyuan to the Kapi front line for reinforcements.
These people are indeed doing a good job. Most of them have participated in short-term training courses in Corsica. Most of the instructors in that training class were hired by Qin Zhiyuan with high salaries from Saint-Cyr Military Academy. This is also thanks to
Without Foch's relationship, otherwise, the generals at Saint-Cyr Military Academy would really look down on Qin Zhiyuan, let alone go to Corsica, even if Qin Zhiyuan's salary was high enough.
The key to the cooperation between the 1st Division and the 32nd Division is the issue of communication and trust between each other. Without basic trust, cooperation is impossible. Fortunately, Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian have a very good relationship. Qin Zhiyuan accompanied him a few days ago
When Foch went to the 32nd Division, Qin Zhiyuan also left a good impression on the officers of the 32nd Division, which somewhat changed the attitude of the officers of the 32nd Division towards Qin Zhiyuan and the officers and soldiers of the First Division.
After inspecting the forward positions, Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian returned to the joint command headquarters. From now on, this will be Qin Zhiyuan's base camp until the first division wins or the defense line is breached by Crown Prince William.
Of course, Qin Zhiyuan didn't think Crown Prince William had this chance.
This joint command consists of a total of 650 people, including a staff department of 50 people, a communications department of 10 people, a support department of 150 people, and finally two companies of escort troops totaling 400 people.
The Support Department is responsible for ensuring smooth communication. They are not only responsible for repairing phone lines, but also responsible for verbally conveying orders when communication is poor. The responsibilities of the escort troops are relatively simple. These two companies were originally Qin Zhiyuan and Basti
An's escort force is also the last armed force in the hands of Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian. When the battle enters the most critical moment, if Qin Zhiyuan needs to shout "Guard Company, follow me", then he is referring to this force.
Of course, Qin Zhiyuan also didn't think this force had a chance to attack.
Hu Tingfeng called, saying that at 8 o'clock this morning, the German Seventh Army stationed in Reims set off from Reims and launched an attack in the direction of our position. Starting at 8:30 in the morning, the reconnaissance company carried out the delayed mission according to the scheduled plan, and had already cooperated with the German army.
The forward Bavarian 10th Infantry Regiment fought more than ten times, with both sides winning and losing. Our army killed 320 enemy troops with confirmed results. At the same time, nine of our troops were killed and 17 were wounded. The battle is still ongoing. Pi
El closed the folder in his hand with a serious expression: According to the staff's calculations, if the German army advances at its current speed, it will arrive at our position around five o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Send a report to Hu Tingfeng that mission No. 1 is over and start mission No. 2. Qin Zhiyuan is satisfied.
The defensive positions of the 1st Division and the 32nd Division have been basically established. It is meaningless for Hu Tingfeng and the others to continue to use delaying tactics against the Germans. The scouts under Hu Tingfeng are all good seedlings, and Qin Zhiyuan does not want to just
Compared with ordinary German soldiers, the scouts should take on tasks more suitable for them.
Mission No. 2 is relatively more suitable for scouts.
According to Qin Zhiyuan's plan, once the scouts begin to carry out combat mission No. 2, it means that the scouts no longer need to fight head-on with the Germans, but will instead turn their targets to the German food routes and the supply points set up by the Germans.
This kind of raid mission can maximize the combat effectiveness of the scouts.
It seems that it is more appropriate to call Hu Tingfeng's men special forces.
Well, it doesn't matter, anyway, special forces originally evolved from scouts.
