Chapter 1257

"I have only one order, attack, attack, you must attack!"

The hysterical roar of Mustache came from the war room of the High Command of the Third Reich.

"I have said it many times, we cannot bear the pressure of a two-front battle and must drive the Allies into the sea.

Don’t you all listen to my orders? Ah! Why are you still allowing allied troops to come ashore in a steady stream?”

Keitel, Himmler, Goebbels and others stood aside with one arm hanging in silence.

After roaring, Mustache slammed the phone down. After sitting back in the chair, his chest was still heaving violently, and one hand could not stop shaking.

The person on the other end of the phone was Marshal Rundstedt, the commander-in-chief of the Western Front.

Mustache repeatedly ordered Rundstedt to take the initiative to attack the Allied landing site, and was even willing to provide six strategic armored divisions for support.

However, from the 3rd to the 6th, Rundstedt did not strictly implement his orders.

The performance of the Allied landing force can be described as a mess, but the German response was also in a hurry and did not seize this opportunity.

The two sides continued to see each other 20 to 30 kilometers away from the coast.

As time goes by, the more Allied troops land and the more heavy equipment comes ashore, the German army's remaining advantages in strength and firepower will be lost. This is something Mustache cannot accept.

In fact, Mustache's command mainly stays on the map, and is somewhat arm's length.

If you want to launch a large-scale counterattack, it must be carried out by sea and land at the same time, otherwise the Allied landing site will not be captured.

However, before the Allied forces landed, Dönitz's submarine force had been hunted down by the Allied navies.

The surface power of the Third Reich was close to zero.

It was impossible for Rundstedt to allow his troops to risk a counterattack under the enemy's powerful naval gunfire, which would probably break the current stalemate.

But Mustache didn't care that much. Out of consideration for the entire war situation, he believed that fighting on two fronts would accelerate the defeat of the Third Reich.

On the Eastern Front battlefield, the Central Xia army has crossed the Dnieper River, and the Fourth Army and the Ninth Army in the Kiev area are unable to continue to support it. The Red Army will soon cross the Dnieper River in large numbers.

The battle in Belarus is also not optimistic. Minsk has been lost, and the imperial army is likely to withdraw from Belarus.

The scale of the uprising in the Bolang area is getting bigger and bigger, and the momentum is so great that the Supreme Command does not have enough troops to suppress it.

If this situation continues, the waves may not be able to hold on.

The German army was unable to win on the Eastern Front because the gap in strength between the two sides was too huge.

Mustache therefore pinned his hopes on the Western Front. After all, there are currently not many Allied troops landing and they lack sufficient heavy equipment support.

If they could drive the Allied forces into the sea in one go, they would have to spend at least half a year to accumulate strength and prepare for the next landing.

As a result, the precarious Third Reich had more time to adjust and redeploy.

Mustache's idea is correct, but the actual situation no longer supports him turning his idea into reality.

Göring is still lying unconscious in the hospital, and Mustache has lost a close partner.

The Berlin bombing made him even more upset, and he had not had a peaceful sleep for several days.

His nerves are very sensitive, and a little bit of dissatisfaction or provocation can make him hysterical.

Keitel, Himmler and others did not dare to say anything. They knew that no matter what they said at this time, they would not be able to satisfy the Führer and would be counterproductive.

Everyone in the combat command room was silent, only various staff officers were still busy on the map.

Everyone could clearly hear the head of state's violent breathing, and his head was hanging lower and lower.

After an unknown amount of time, a colonel's communications staff hurriedly walked in from outside.

The colonel obviously felt the strange atmosphere in the combat command room. After a slight hesitation, he sent a telegram to Chief of Staff Keitel.

Everyone invariably cast their peripheral vision at Keitel, observing his expression carefully.

Only Mustache was still sulking and breathing heavily with his eyes closed.

There was panic and urgency in Keitel's eyes, which was noticed by Himmler, Goebbels and others who were always paying attention.

Himmler took the initiative to come over and lowered his head to read the contents of the telegram. This sight also changed his expression drastically.

Keitel did not dare to hesitate any longer and walked to Mustache's side to report:

"Führer, Marshal Model from the Eastern Front reports."

Mustache opened his eyes and began to have a bad premonition in his heart.

Keitel said:

"This morning, four Soviet armies of the First Ukrainian Front and the Second Ukrainian Front crossed the Dnieper River from multiple directions.

Our Dnieper River defense line can no longer hold on, and Marshal Model requests a retreat."

"I will not allow retreat, drive the Bolsheviks back, drive them back!"

Mustache shouted without even thinking.

The saliva sprayed on Keitel's face, but the matter was so important that he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue:

"Head of State, if you don't evacuate immediately, the main force will probably be surrounded in Kiev, repeating the failure of Stalingrad.

The war situation has become irreversible, and we can only plan to fight again by preserving our vitality as much as possible."

Keitel walked to the map in two or two steps, grabbed the baton and said:

"Although the Zhongxia people did not attack Kiev's flanks, their pursuit was greater.

Frontline troops reported that at least three Zhongxia armored divisions entered Romania along the Black Sea, and Zhongxia's fleet also appeared on the Black Sea.

Their target must be Bucharest!"

The oil fields in Bucharest have been destroyed and the oil field fires are still going on.

If the Central Xia people were allowed to occupy Bucharest, they would go north along the Danube River, liberate the occupying countries of the Third Reich one by one, and finally join the Soviet army and the Allied forces on the Western Front in a three-way attack on the Third Reich itself.

"Retreat, retreat, you people can only say retreat. If this continues, the enemy will reach Berlin. Where will we retreat then?"

Mustache's mental state began to become abnormal. He also pointed at the map and said:

"There are Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Austria in the south. It is impossible for the Central Xia people to invade the mainland of the empire in a short time. Don't be alarmist."

"The most critical thing now is to stop the Bolsheviks and drive the Allied forces on the Western Front into the sea. There is still room for change. What should we do when there is really no way to retreat?"

No one dared to talk back to the head of state, Keitel said quietly:

"At least let Marshal Model evacuate Kiev and don't give the enemy a chance to make dumplings."

The mustache also took a step back,

"Yes, but before leaving, destroy everything that deserves to be destroyed and leave Stalin in ashes."

Keitel nodded, but what he was thinking about was that the Dnieper River Strangulation had lasted for more than ten days, and everything that could be destroyed had been destroyed by the flames of war.

Even if the German troops had not taken action when they left, the west bank of the Dnieper River would have been in ruins.

After leaving the combat command room, Keitel sighed in his heart:

"The head of state has become more and more accustomed to only commanding operations on the map. Little does he know that many of those armies have ceased to exist in name only."

..

Warsaw.

General Komorovsky, commander of the Home Army, stayed in the dimly lit underground command post. He was disheveled and his eyeballs were bloodshot.

It looks very embarrassed, but at the same time it also gives people a very excited feeling.

On March 1, when the Gustav train gun appeared outside Warsaw, the good days of the rebel army were gone forever. Every moment experienced these days was suffering.

The Gustav train roared ten times in succession, almost blowing the entire city of Warsaw into rubble.

Tens of thousands of houses were destroyed, and in these days of fighting, at least 200,000 Warsaw soldiers and civilians were killed by gunfire.

The rebel army suffered a major blow, and it also made the soldiers aware of the cruelty of war and the difficulty of national independence.

Komorowski personally went to the front line and led young soldiers to use incendiary bottles, blasting canisters, etc. to resist German tanks.

The people of Warsaw, who were displaced or had their families destroyed, were forced to side with the rebels. They fought with the SS on the ruins, and countless people died.

Fortunately, due to the air support from Zhongxia, the Gustav train gun no longer dared to roar.

I heard that he had left Warsaw and went to suppress his fellow rebels in other cities.

Komorowski's adjutant, Colonel Monte, also walked in with red eyes. He lay tiredly on the chair and said:

"I have just received a notification from Central Xia intelligence personnel that the Nazi Dnieper River defense line no longer exists, and the battle to liberate Belarus and Ukraine will soon end."

Surprise appeared in Komorowski's eyes.

"In this way, the Nazi's defeat has accelerated again."

He walked around the dark basement a few times, stopped and said:

"Tell this news to all soldiers and compatriots, and please persevere. Victory is not far away."
