"Second Lieutenant Heinz, welcome to the supplementary battalion of the 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment."
With this sound, Heinz Wilhelm Guderian, one of the three most famous generals in Germany in the future, officially became Wang Weiyi's subordinate.
Maybe what Dr. Qin said is right. When someone who does not belong to an era suddenly appears, no matter how cautious he is, history will definitely change.
Just like the current Wang Weiyi - Ernst Brahm!
Guderian was also excited to meet Captain Ernst Brahm. This is a legend of the German army, a miracle that I am afraid no one can complete again.
When he was transferred from the Tenth Han Loforia Light Infantry Battalion where his father had been the battalion commander, he was still a little unhappy, but when he heard that he was being transferred to Ernst Brahm His subordinates acted as adjutants, and all dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.
This will be a great honor for myself...
"The D9 position must be recaptured." After briefly welcoming Guderian, Wang Weiyi's mind returned to the war: "And it must be fast, today!"
"Today?" When Captain Ernst said this, everyone was stunned.
This is a little hard to understand. The British's fierce attack was repelled, and the supplementary battalion was still breathing. Is it necessary to launch a counterattack under such circumstances?
Lieutenant Hall was very disapproving.
The most important task now is to hold on to the existing position instead of launching a reckless attack. But despite this, he still dutifully raised his objections:
"Captain, everyone knows the miracles you have created, but you haven't been on the battlefield for a while, and maybe you are not very clear about the current situation. But in front of us..."
"The 43rd Battalion of the 42nd East Lance Division is assigned the firepower of Company A of the 42nd Machine Gun Battalion." Wang Weiyi continued for him: "But this does not constitute a reason for us to be timid..."
As soon as the word "cowardice" was spoken, Lieutenant Hall's complexion changed. Apparently he thought it was an insult to himself. However, Wang Weiyi did not notice his changes:
"Passive defense can only lead to increased casualties. What we need now is a beautiful counterattack! If we can recapture the D9 position, it will be a huge boost to the morale of the supplementary battalion."
Wang Weiyi was right about this, and he thought so in his heart.
After the last major German counterattack, the battlefields on all fronts fell into a state of German defense and Allied forces offensive.
After Wang Weiyi returned to the supplementary camp, he found that although all the officers and soldiers still performed very bravely, their morale was obviously not as good as before under the constant attacks of the Allies.
Now a hearty victory must be needed to re-boost morale.
And there is also a very important wish. This is my first battle after acting as the commander of the supplementary battalion. I am only allowed to win, not lose, and I must win a big victory!
This determination has been made and cannot be changed. Wang Weiyi immediately said: "Second Lieutenant Hall, I order you to continue to hold on with the fourth company, and everyone else will enter the attack mode. In six hours, we will launch an attack to recapture the D9 position! This order No changes allowed!"
"Yes! Attack in six hours!"
When Captain Ernst Brahm decisively issued this order, everyone's emotions were aroused except Second Lieutenant Hall.
Although the troops were weaker than the opponent, although the attack was launched at night, and although they had to face enemy machine gun fire, the officers and soldiers felt that these were not important.
Because they have strong spiritual pillars:
Ernst Brahm!
He is the guarantee of victory!
"Can I contact Commander von Rauch directly?"
"Okay, Captain."
"Get General von Rauch for me."
The call was quickly connected. This was an overstepping call from Wang Weiyi, but it didn't matter. He was Baron Alexon, personally named by His Majesty the Emperor. Sometimes, he could use some privileges:
"General von Rauch, I am Ernst of the Supplementary Battalion of the 16th Infantry Regiment."
"Ah, Baron Alexson, I just received a letter from Fritz. This nephew of mine praises you very much. Do you have anything to do with me directly?"
"Yes, General, I am ready to recapture the D9 position."
"D9 position? Wait a moment."
There was no sound on the other end of the phone for a while. Wang Weiyi knew that the general was there to ask his subordinates to check the intelligence. After waiting patiently for a while, General von Rauch's voice came again:
"Ernst, are you really going to do this? The enemies there are stronger than you."
"Yes, General, I am prepared to do so, and my troops have entered an attack mode."
"Then if you contact me directly, do you need any help from me?"
"Yes, General, in six hours I need ten minutes of artillery coverage."
General von Rauch was silent for a moment:
"Ernst, I can provide you with artillery support, but night shelling is difficult to achieve."
Wang Weiyi told a little lie: "General, the shelling is just to cover up our actions and increase the possibility of capturing the D9 position."
"Since you are the one requesting me in person, I have no reason not to agree to it, otherwise Fritz will definitely be unhappy. But please remember, an overstepping request can only happen once, Baron Alexon."
"I will apologize to my regimental commander in person, General, and thank you for your generosity. Good luck. All for Germany."
"Everything is for Germany, and I wish you good luck. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Weiyi called Hitler over: "Adolf, I need to rest for half an hour. Don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes, Captain."
When he was the only one left here, Wang Weiyi opened the contact with Xiao Ling: "Xiao Ling, you said you have six aircraft for support?"
"Yes."
"What can our planes look like?"
"From the appearance point of view, everyone thinks it is the Albatross DII. But its combat performance is not comparable to any fighter of this era."
"Okay." Wang Weiyi felt more relaxed after hearing this. At least there won't be anything like a tank: "Can precise bombing be done at night?"
"It can be done under my personal control."
"Six hours later, I need two planes to carry out fierce bombing on the D9 position, especially their machine gun positions. I need to resolutely destroy them!"
"Please give the order."
"I'm a rambler requesting aircraft support."
"Rambler's identity is confirmed, authorization is approved, aircraft support will be carried out in six hours. Status: on standby. Arrival at the battlefield in five hours and fifty-nine minutes."
Wang Weiyi breathed a long sigh of relief.
