As the sun rises, a new day begins again, and the well-rested officers and soldiers of the British and Roman armies enter into a new fight.
"attack."
Following the shouts of the Romanian officers leading the group, a large number of soldiers surged towards the defenders' positions.
"Fight back."
Facing the incoming Romanian army, the commander of the position immediately shouted and led his men to desperately prevent them from approaching their position.
Scenes like this can be seen everywhere, with so much smoke covering Palestine and northern Jordan that even the sun couldn't bear to see the fighting and hid.
If you want to say where the fighting was the fiercest, it was in the Jordan Valley. If the battle the previous day was uncomfortable, then today's battle was disgusting.
In the Jordan Valley, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Armored Division and the 6th Armored Division looked at the positions one after another and really wanted to vomit.
"How is this detected? So many obvious positions have not been detected."
Yes, this is the current sentiment of the officers and soldiers of the two divisions. They are disgusted by these suddenly popping up positions. You can see fresh soil at a glance in many positions, which shows that they were built not long ago. Mader, why are you so unlucky?
Every time, I could catch up with the enemy and arrive just as soon as the enemy position was repaired.
In fact, this problem also puzzled the Romanian intelligence department. However, this problem was solved not long after. It turned out that the British used the original channels in the Jordan Valley to recruit manpower to help them dig trenches with heavy sums of money. Although there are many such trenches
It has shortcomings, but its advantage is that it is fast and can build many trenches in one day.
So now there is a strange scene in the Jordan Valley, that is, the battle is raging in the front, and the Arabs behind are helping the old and the young to help the British build trenches.
You said that the Holy Family has great influence in this land, why don't you call on everyone to stop this behavior?
Very good, very well said, but influence cannot be eaten for a living, not to mention that the British have a gun in one hand and money in the other. Anyone who is not stupid knows how to choose.
In addition, the previous great riots had already brought the Holy Family's influence to the extreme. The resistance they broke out in front of the British soldiers either fled to Damascus or hid obediently. Now the Holy Family's influence in the region is temporarily lacking.
, so I don’t know much about it.
Although the offensive in the Jordan Valley made the 3rd and 6th Armored Divisions somewhat difficult, Hoffman still had no intention of ordering them to stop. Because the latest situation learned from the reconnaissance plane in the morning was that they had held back at least 8 British troops.
infantry division, nearly 100,000 troops.
If these people were replaced by local divisions of the British army, Hoffman would immediately order them to withdraw, not to mention attacking. However, these divisions are all troops formed by their colonies, and a lot of equipment can be used to fight in a battle.
Moreover, not to mention that there is no local troops in these divisions, there are not even traditional white troops from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, etc. They are basically composed of black African uncles and Indians.
Faced with such a force, of course Hoffman would not order the troops to stop. Even if the number of enemies was larger and the positions were disgusting, it would never be able to stop the Romanian armor.
The actual situation was almost what he imagined. In the afternoon, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd and 6th Armored Divisions felt that the enemy they faced was beginning to weaken. A large number of black uncles and Indian Asans flooded the enemy's defense line. This may be a defensive
The British army felt that there was too much pressure and wanted to increase the number of troops.
But the subsequent battles showed that this was definitely a failure. These Indians and blacks who filled the trenches had never been trained to face tanks before, or the methods they used to train anti-tanks were still in World War I.
when.
When faced with other aspects, they are still very good. Even if they are attacked by infantry, these people can still fight in a decent manner. Although many people have no idea where their guns are hitting, they can at least be stable.
However, when they faced Romanian R-series tanks earlier, these people performed very poorly. Many of them seemed to have never seen a tank, or they had never seen such a tall tank (R30 heavy tank). After exhausting all means, they could not
After these mobile fortresses were stopped, they became furious and fled backwards. Even the gendarmerie couldn't stop them.
And the escape of these people also brought down other comrades.
Faced with such a situation, I believe the officer who proposed this suggestion would want to bang his head against the wall.
That's right, General Gansców, who commanded this battle, really wanted to bang his head against the wall, if he hadn't forgotten to wear his helmet.
However, considering the influence and status, he could only bear this loss.
And he had no choice but to do this. In the past, he had to ensure that he blocked the Romanian front, so he had to give priority to the troops with combat effectiveness. However, the successive battles caused a lot of casualties, so he could only slowly fill in with troops that were weak in combat.
It's just that their performance seems a bit bad. But no matter how bad the next battle is, they have to be on top. At worst, the casualties will be higher.
Therefore, in the subsequent battles, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd and 6th Armored Divisions discovered that the enemy was getting larger and larger, gradually growing from the regiment level to the brigade level. However, the scale increased, but the blocking time was not extended, but it was
It also troubled them a lot.
Compared with the 36th Armored Division, which was entangled in the Jordan Valley, the 47th Armored Division on the coastal plain was much more comfortable.
They galloped along the coastal road without encountering even a decent battle.
"Damn, it's so quiet, it makes us feel like we're on vacation, which is not a good feeling."
Major Martin Lyman, sitting in his command car, expressed his concerns to the deputy beside him.
Now Martin Lehmann has been promoted to major. Not only that, but he also took over the position of battalion commander because the original battalion commander was transferred elsewhere. No matter in terms of position or rank, he is not inferior to his arch-rival Major Barber.
When faced with Martin Lehmann's words, the deputy thought of his combat experience during this period and agreed.
"That's true. Fortunately yesterday, at least we fought one battle in Haifa, and then experienced several small-scale battles. But until today, there has not been a single level battle. This is not like the British style.
Ah, don't they have troops stationed in the rear? This is a mistake that even military cadets would not make."

"Yeah, that's what I'm worried about."
When Martin Lehmann was talking about his opponent's unexpected moves, Bordas, who was sitting in his command vehicle, was also thinking of asking him this. Of course, his command vehicle was much better than Martin Lehmann's command vehicle, which was an armored vehicle.
This command vehicle not only has a map sand table and radio communication facilities, but there is also a small bedroom in the command vehicle for him to rest easily.
However, his confusion was the same as that of Martin Lehmann. He felt that the action was like a march, it was too smooth, and there was not even any decent resistance. It felt like the British army deliberately let them in, which made Bordas wary.
Sex reaches its highest level.
As this was related to the situation of his own troops, Bordas couldn't figure out the reason for the time being, so of course he handed the problem over. Maybe his old commander knew the reason for this problem.
After Bordas' telegram reached the headquarters, Hoffman already had a rough idea based on the reports from other fronts. However, he did not let the coastal cluster stop and instead picked up the phone.
"Pick me up to Air Force Command, I'm looking for General Davalek."
"Is it General Davalek? I am Hoffman. I ask your air force to ensure that you provide adequate air cover for the coastal cluster... I know that your task is very heavy, but protecting the coastal cluster must be the first priority. There must be no
Reasons and excuses... I want to see results."
After putting down the phone, Hoffman planned to continue to see what the British did. However, it was not easy to move his coastal cluster, especially when Romania had the advantage in the sea and air.
