Like June of the Second World War, it was a rainy month that was coming to an end. Today's sun is about the same sign that a beautiful lazy summer day is coming.

Facing the bright sunshine, the soldiers happily emerged from the bunkers one by one. Facing the sun in the trenches, stretching the limbs that were about to soak in the bunker, enjoying the last trace of spring in the sun.

The French soldiers, who had not received the news of the attack, came out of the trenches one by one to the surface positions, and lay or sit in places where there was no mud. One by one, they smoked homemade cigarettes, told some naked, nasty jokes, and let the bright sun bask their pale skin.

Especially the colonial troops from Algiers, France, were lucky to have survived the long French winter, and the onset of summer filled them with pre-battle passion.

Occasionally, they would think of the soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force, like them, who had been in the mud all day long. This would have been the same as the Germans on the opposite side, and there would be no strange movement at all.

"Buzz ......"

The punctual sound of an airplane engine like an alarm clock came over the position, which made the French soldiers feel comfortable. With them, the artillery of the Germans will be much more honest, and lately, for some reason, German planes have rarely been seen.

But it was not a plane that was hovering over their position today that was carrying out combat patrols. They were reconnaissance planes sent by the French to check the movements of the Germans for the last time before the offensive was launched.

Soon after, the cheerful French soldiers sensed that today's events seemed to be less than that simple.

"Rumble ......"

Soon after, they heard the roar of engines and the grinding of machinery coming from behind the British position. One by one, the French soldiers were surprised to see a swarm of huge war machines moving slowly but surely towards the front from the rear of their position.

"Are these Englishmen crazy? Moving on the positions like this, didn't they prepare targets for the German artillery? These bastards British......"

One by one, they looked up at the bright sun in the sky.

"It's a pity that such a good weather!"

"Oh my God, are those the tanks (tanks) of John Bull? They're huge! ”

As the French infantry exclaimed, the figures of these huge war machines became clearer and clearer. Although they did not fire, their large body had already sent the fear of all the infantrymen into fear.

Compared with the lively tribute positions, the soldiers on the French positions appeared to have nothing to do. The Germans on the other side did not seem to react any more, and they still seemed to be asleep.

In the face of such a "monster", there was no reason for the slumber of the German soldiers.

Under the supervision of Falkenhain, the German soldiers were always in a state of readiness for battle, and as on the French side, the order to guard was not conveyed to the forefront, so that the possibility of leakage of secrets was minimized.

To the surprise of the German soldiers who had spotted the British armoured clusters, they received such an incredible answer to their calls.

"Order all front-line departments to pay attention to air defense, and accept orders from the command at any time to make new deployments!"

It seemed that God heard the answer of the German commander, and soon proved how prescient his command was.

Before their words fell, a sound like rolling thunder came from the sky. The German soldiers followed the sound in astonishment and found something that surprised them even more.

In the sky, there are crows, as if they want to block out the sunlight in the sky. Because of the different tasks, they pressed high and low from the sky to their positions.

"Hell, are the British going on the attack? How we don't know at all! ”

The French recruits at the forefront raised their heads one by one, thinking that today's British had collectively gone crazy. And the clever veterans jumped into the trenches one by one, two, and they estimated that the big war was about to begin.

Before the French officers at the forefront could understand, the telephone ringing in the bunker rang like a ring, and then their orders arrived.

It was only then that the French officers and soldiers at the front knew that the French army was also going to attack. And he and his men now had to cooperate with the approaching sappers, paving roads in their trench-crisscrossed positions for the use of French armored units.

At this time, the advantages of the multi-purpose products of the MPM military-industrial complex are reflected.

The saddle-shaped steel elements used to protect the civil bunkers were erected to become steel "bridges" that could cross the trenches and fully pass those armored vehicles. However, the British army, which was equipped with tanks, could not use such things because of the heavy weight of the tanks, so they had to use sandbags and wood to build bridges.

"It's the first time we've seen such an attack!"

The soldiers of the colonial army in French Algiers raised their heads and looked at the planes in the sky in amazement. In particular, the slow and determined "Iron Lions" on the ground have greatly boosted their confidence. As the order arrived, the infantry retreated into their trenches one by one and began to prepare for battle.

On the ground, the German soldiers huddled in the trenches and held their breath, and the behemoths that were advancing towards them on the ground really terrified them. Fortunately, they had prepared for this allied attack, and the German soldiers at the forefront would put up a slight resistance in the direction of the main British attack, and then withdraw to the second line of defense a few kilometers away.

After the second line of defense also put up a little resistance, they would continue to retreat, leading the attacking British troops to the third line of defense. And there, General Falkenhain had already prepared a feast for them.

The advancing British armored forces were fronted by two armored brigades of assault regiments, followed by the rest of the infantry of two divisions. And then there was a follow-up force to keep the continuous offensive going.

Such a strong military appearance made the commander of the British Expeditionary Force, Douglas. Haig believed that either the British expeditionary force did not have to wait for the main forces of the French army to attack. Perhaps by that time, armored units, reinforced by 150 tanks, under the cover of aircraft in the sky, would have long broken through the German positions.

By this time the attack on the Germans had already begun, and as everyone had guessed, it was the air power that launched the assault first.

In the sky, there are bomb-laden "Camel" fighters, which carry 250 rounds of ammunition and four 12-kilogram bombs like German albatrosses.

Their main task was to suppress the infantry fire of the German troops at the front and to patrol the battlefield during the ensuing engagements to ensure the safety of the attacking British troops.
