In the name of Ernst Brahm - Attack!
Second Army Lieutenant General Carlos Eltripe von Galwitz issued this very rare order:
Attack for a little German lieutenant!
German 2nd Hunting Squadron.
The handsome Lieutenant Manfred von Richthofen has been waiting for this moment for too long!
After receiving this order from the general, Lieutenant Richthofen was the first to act.
He boarded his Albatross biplane, his face was stern, but he could not hide his excitement and enthusiasm:
"In the name of Ernst Brahm—attack!"
The albatross flies into the sky!
In an instant, the German artillery fire also let out an earth-shattering roar!
Countless artillery shells hit the opposite side like meteors, and the battlefield was instantly enveloped in crazy artillery fire. All the Germans were ready for the big counterattack!
In the name of Ernst Brahm!
Artillery fire continued to fall, and the entire battlefield was completely engulfed in explosions and flames.
This is the revenge of the Germans, this is the revenge of Germany!
All for Ernst!
Obviously, the British did not expect that revenge would come so suddenly and violently!
The Germans are ready!
Württemberg Mountain Camp.
Erwin Rommel looked ahead with a stern expression, listening to his own artillery fire playing the most gorgeous movement on the battlefield, but he could not hide his inner excitement.
Ernst Brahm, you are not alone, nor are you fighting alone!
"Lieutenant, it's time to begin!"
When hearing these words, Erwin Rommel nodded slightly, and then he slowly pulled out the command knife:
"In the name of Ernst Brahm—attack!"
When the German officers and soldiers heard this order, they burst into earth-shattering cries.
Ernst Brahm, a legendary name! Now they will attack for him!
Replacement Battalion, 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment.
Major Dunxiwei took a deep breath, and then said word by word:
"Order, attack! In the name of Ernst Brahm!"
The whistle sounded nervously and sharply, and all the officers and soldiers of the supplementary battalion devoted themselves to this counterattack that could sweep everything away with an almost fanatical mood!
The third company rushed to the front!
Bunkerrei, Steck, Sean... Of course, there must be no one missing:
Adolf Hitler!
For Lieutenant Ernst, for the glory of the 3rd Company!
Attack - in the name of Ernst Brahm!
At 12:30 noon on September 21, 1916, the German First Army and the Second Army launched a counterattack at the same time in advance!
The Somme is ablaze with war again!
There is only one name that the two armies call together:
Ernst Brahm!
This is a magical name. If his capture of Position G with less than a company of troops can only be called "accidental", then his achievements in successively defeating the Prince of Sobok Battalion and the 19th Welsh Infantry Regiment can only be called "accidental". It is described as "great and miraculous"!
The morale of almost every German soldier was mobilized because of such a magical battle!
Germany will not let Lieutenant Ernst fight alone. He is not alone on the battlefield! On the battlefield, every German soldier is Ernst Brahm!
The counterattack launched on September 21st was completely unexpected by the British. , In their intelligence, the German army will counterattack on the 23rd, or even later.
The British are not ready yet!
German soldiers were all over the mountains and plains. They were charging, shouting, and bursting out with incredible energy.
Those fanatical shouts and sharp whistles were mixed together, almost drowning everything on the battlefield.
The planes in the sky, the artillery fire on the ground, the roar of Maxim, and the scream of Mauser guns all created the most magnificent scene!
In the name of Ernst Brahm - Attack!
One of the protagonists of this major counterattack, Lieutenant Ernst Brahm, Wang Weiyi, did not yet know what happened to the Germans.
It was only when artillery fire began to cover the battlefield that Wang Weiyi felt a slight fluctuation in his heart:
Could it be that the German counterattack has begun?
But Wang Weiyi was not sure. For a low-ranking officer like him, it is impossible for anyone to report the battle situation to him, not to mention that he is still in the heart of the enemy?
"Rambler, the German army has launched a counterattack today!" Xiao Ling's voice suddenly rang in his ears, which instantly cleared Wang Weiyi's doubts: "Now, it's time for you to break out! The target is northeast."
"Four swords, we have begun to counterattack!" Wang Weiyi, who was excited, shouted loudly: "Follow me to break out of the encirclement, follow me to break out of the encirclement!"
The British outside the woods became leaderless because of the death of Lieutenant Conker and the serious injury of Second Lieutenant Montgomery. When the German retaliatory artillery fire started, they became more and more panicked.
Although there was no threat of artillery fire for the time being, they were still at a loss.
Under the cover of the German counterattack, Wang Weiyi's breakout was extremely smooth, and no one would take care of these two "Germans".
After carefully checking the back, there was no enemy chasing after him, which made Wang Weiyi let out a long sigh of relief.
But Xiao Ling's voice sounded again: "Rambler, now you need to keep your companions away for three hours. I'm on your right side, waiting for you to return to the base."
This damn base!
When he was in the most danger, the base could not provide any help. Now that the crisis has temporarily eased, the base has appeared again.
Could it be that he really has a grudge against the base?
Although his mind was full of doubts, Wang Weiyi still had to carry out this order: "Sida, you go to the west and closely monitor the movements of the British. I will go there to take a look. We will meet here again in three hours!"
Although he was born as a laborer, Guo Yunfeng possessed virtues that many professional soldiers could not match. He would never ask why this order was issued, let alone raise any objections. Especially for Lieutenant Ernst Brahm's words, he had only one reaction:
Obey, obey him unconditionally!
Guo Yunfeng quickly ran in the direction pointed by the lieutenant, but he disappeared from sight. Wang Weiyi looked around to make sure that no one was following him, and then quickly walked towards the one o'clock direction.
The sound of the cannon was still rumbling, and the shouts that shook the sky could even be heard, but now all this has nothing to do with Wang Weiyi for the time being.
On September 21, 1916, the two major German armies launched a powerful counterattack. At this time, the Germans on the battlefield were all calling one person's name:
Ernst Brahm!
