Chapter 20: The Battle of Prophecy (Revision)

"The Baledique-Verdun road, when the Battle of Verdun begins, will be the only supply route that can be announced, and finally I think you French will call it the 'Holy Road'!"

Meeting Tang Yunyang for the first time, under Xia Fei's cautious gaze, he said the above words with extreme confidence. And now, not only has Bei become the commander-in-chief of Verdun, but the current reinforcement channel is only this road, which is completely in line with Tang Yunyang's prediction.

"Oh my God, this guy is really a wizard who can see through the future!"

For a moment, Xia Fei felt some kind of indescribable fear, he had been dealing with a wizard who could know the future for so long, so one day he would become some other monster.

The tension on Verdun forced his brain to put aside this seemingly unthinkable idea, after all, he was on a mission to protect the French people, after all, winning this war would give him the prestige he needed.

"Mr. Carlancer, you have to bring this news to the attention of our radio station, the people have the right to know the truth, otherwise we will be attacked by the other media, but talk about it...... You can't just let them say whatever they want, you know what I mean? ”

"Yes, my general, I think we should be able to review the radio script, please trust my general, I will handle this matter well."

Xia Fei heard Colonel Caranser's assurance, and then turned his head back and refocused his gaze on the large combat map on the table in front of him.

The direction of the German offensive was clearly to break through from the north of the fortress of Verdun, and now the first line of defense in the north was no longer able to withstand the onslaught of the opponent. According to Petain's report from the front, most of the six divisions of the first line of defense lost the ability to counterattack, and some of the officers and defenders of the broken line had to retreat to the second line of defense.

"Then the Germans will definitely take advantage of this momentum to attack Fort Douaumont, but unfortunately I don't have fighters, otherwise I can ......"

Yes, at the moment, there are no more fighters in Xiafei, and if you add the ones that are being repaired, there are only a hundred fighters that can be sent to the front line, how can these planes alone engage the Luftwaffe? Although the Ben Mine attack aircraft used for ground attacks did not suffer excessive losses, and there were still 200 of them, how could they attack the Germans without fighter cover?

"Or, we don't ask the British to launch an attack somewhere, and there should be some movement on the part of the Russian army, so that at least the German offensive can be reduced."

Now, on almost every front, a large-scale offensive operation is brewing. Germany had apparently redirected its 1915 strategic objective to the Western Front, so the Allies should have the possibility of attacking on the Eastern Front.

As for the British army on the battlefield, at this moment it is preparing for the offensive operation in the direction of the Somme formulated at the beginning of the year, and the elite units of the French army are being refurbished and reequipped in order to join the offensive operation in the direction of the Somme in the future, so the Entente is all on the defensive on the Western Front.

"We've got to fight back, even at night! An order was drawn up for an all-out night attack on the Germans by attack aircraft units. Petain was also to be informed that he should defend Fort Douaumont, which was the strongest place for us to face the Germans at the front. In addition, we need to mobilize reinforcements from the resting troops in the direction of Paris, especially since we need a large number of fighters, otherwise this holy road will not be used. ”

Colonel Carancer, who was sitting across the table, looked at the red and blue arrows on the map with a little melancholy, no one could have imagined that the Germans would almost completely destroy the fighter forces of the Entente in the early hours of the morning, so that the German artillery would no longer be suppressed, and this incident caused irreparable damage to the defense of the French side.

In addition, without the protection of fighters, German fighters almost completely blocked all roads for reinforcements to Verdun, how could the army be thrown into the Verdun territory?

"General...... General ......"

Colonel Caranser remembered a man who, though not currently in France, had a very strong force in his hands. Therefore, he called out to Xia Fei, who was deep in thought.

"General, I have another idea, can we use the troops of Thunder International this time, if we add the hunter regiment of our 1st Cavalry Division, it will be a very good assault group, or we can use it in the Verdun direction, what do you think?"

"Use Don's men?!"

Regarding this, Xia Fei's heart jumped violently. According to the information given to him by Tang Yunyang, this is an army with considerable strength both in defense and offense. But the question is, they are a mercenary company, and now they can accept to throw their power into this hopeless confrontation?

(The first release of this book) does not laugh at group A: 35761481; Email: [email protected].

This is an unknown, and if they play an excessively significant role in the counterattack against the Germans, or gain too much fame, this is something that Xia Fei does not want to see. After all, Tang Yunyang's expansion of military power and the boldness and ruthlessness of his way of acting had already attracted Xia Fei's attention, at least deep down he already had some awareness of this male witch.

"No, Colonel Caranther, I don't think it is appropriate for us to use our main assault force now, for it would have a very bad effect on our army if we relied on mercenaries alone. In addition, it would be unwise for our 1st Assault Cavalry Division to invest in the depletion of their forces now. However, I think we can send them an invitation to be ready to join the 1st Assault Cavalry Division in the Verdun offensive in the future, and I think that this is the only way to use it in order to be suitable for them! ”

"He doesn't believe in the Chinese after all! But don't you know that Don is a guy who has to be taken seriously, or he's likely to cause something to attract people's attention! ”

Caranse sighed in his heart, Tang Yunyang had informed him that if there was any "good thing", don't forget his Thunder International. As a shareholder, Colonel Carancyr was willing to participate in the battle, but Xia Fei in front of him obviously didn't think so.

"I really wonder when this guy Don will return to France? If he returns, what kind of comparison will he have for the battle situation? ”

This was what Colonel Caranther wanted to know most now, for after more than half a year of being with him, he had sensed that this mysterious Oriental man had a mysterious power, and that this power could always turn things in his favor.

"He had predicted that the Battle of Verdun would end in victory for the French, so when would he appear and was he ready?"
