Montgomery was jogging in the morning.

This is Montgomery's character, even when the front line is at its hottest, he goes to bed, eats and works punctually according to his own routine, and of course this includes sports.

At this time, a jeep drove quickly to Montgomery and stopped with a "whoosh", and De Guangon hurriedly shouted to Montgomery as he got out of the car: "General, the 1st Panzer Division...... They are surrounded! ”

"What?" Montgomery couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "How is this possible?" Surrounded by Italian armored divisions ?! ”

"No, General!" Degan replied: "There is not only one armored division in Aguila, but there are three in total, including the Italian armored division...... That is, all their armored divisions are there! ”

Montgomery's face turned pale for a moment, and after being stunned, he immediately jumped into the jeep, and the driver turned around and drove the jeep towards the headquarters.

On the way back to headquarters, Montgomery pulled a map out of his pocket and looked at it, then realized that he had been fooled...... This map of the German army's strength and defense is obviously fake, otherwise it would not have been possible for the two German armored divisions to concentrate on Aguila overnight without warning.

"These cunning Germans!" Montgomery scolded, then asked De Guengang, "How is the situation now?" ”

"It's bad!" De Guengang replied: "They (the 1st Panzer Division) have been flanked by two German Panzer Divisions and have been crushed, and are now trying to hold the open gap in the line of defense, if it is also captured by the Germans......"

Needless to say.

In front of the German defense line was a minefield, and the British 1st Panzer Division opened a passage in the minefield to attack, if this passage was blocked by the Germans, then the 1st Panzer Division was afraid that not even a single soldier could go back.

"Order air reinforcements immediately!" Montgomery ordered.

"Yes, General!" Degan answered, and then asked, "Which one, General?" ”

"All!" Montgomery said, "Send them all!" ”

"Yes!"

"Wait!" Montgomery ordered again: "Order the 15th Panzer Division to rush to reinforcements!" ”

"Yes, General!"

When De Guengang conveyed the order through the walkie-talkie, Montgomery looked at the German defense map in his hand in a daze, and there was even a little blood stain on it...... Suddenly, Montgomery tore it to pieces with a few blows and threw it out of the jeep.

Looking at this scene, De Guengang couldn't help but be a little stunned, he had never seen Montgomery make such a big fire.

Montgomery, of course, had reason to be angry, not only because he had been badly fooled by the Germans, but also because of the loss of the 1st Panzer Division...... It was the 1st Armored Division, and a large number of parliamentarians, nobles' children, and relatives served in this unit, and Montgomery wanted them to reap a victory to boost morale and make those councillors proud by the way, but he didn't expect this to be the result.

As you can imagine, those councillors and nobles will not let Montgomery go easily.

The battle was fierce.

Of course, the word tragic is more appropriate for the British 1st Panzer Division.

The fleeing British were pursued by the Germans all the way to the defensive line near the minefield, where a British infantry regiment was stationed, but this infantry regiment was basically unable to resist.

This is not because the infantry regiment is not strong in combat, in fact, the third infantry regiment is a unit that performed well in the First World War, and many of their officers have fought in the First World War and have rich combat experience.

Colonel Bryan was one of them.

"God!" Colonel Blaine looked at the British troops pouring down from the front line like a tidal wave, and said: "They are blocking our firing range, and the Germans will follow their ass and kill our line!" ”

What Colonel Bryan said was exactly what the Germans were doing.

It was a flat and wide desert, and the British deserters were rushing towards the defense line of the 3rd Infantry Regiment in front of them, which became an excellent human shield for the Germans and even the German tanks.

"What are we going to do, Colonel?" The staff officer asked Brian anxiously.

Colonel Bryan immediately ordered: "The defense line can't be held, prepare to retreat!" ”

"Yes, Colonel!" This order is clearly very popular.

Then Colonel Bryan gave two more forward-looking orders: "Order the minesweeper tank to go back to minesweep!" ”

The significance of this order was obvious, as it was to open up a wider passage for the British deserters.

"Bury all the anti-tank mines near the positions!" Colonel Bryan said.

"But, Colonel!" Someone questioned: "Our troops have not passed yet!" ”

"They have abandoned tanks and cars!" Colonel Bryan said, "Even if there are still a few of them...... If they hit a mine, even if they are unlucky! ”

Colonel Bryan proved to be right.

Anti-tank mines are characterized by the fact that infantry can pass safely, and tanks and cars will explode when they are caught, so that a minefield against German tanks can be quickly constructed near the defensive line.

It was also this minefield that slowed down the German pursuit, and then stopped the pursuit on the orders of Colonel Albridge.

The Germans had to stop the pursuit, because they did not know how many anti-tank mines the British had planted in their positions...... This is the advantage of mines.

At the same time, the Germans did not have many tanks, and they were not in a position to take this risk.

However, the British soldiers were not having a good time, and the German tanks and soldiers followed the routs with machine guns and artillery, only to cause the routs to flee everywhere, and many deserters fled into the minefield in a panic...... There were many "S" shaped bouncing mines buried there, and when they were activated, they bounced up and exploded many steel balls everywhere, only to hit the British soldiers to the ground and cry wolf.

But no matter how much they called for help, they didn't dare to save them in this case, because it would not only save anyone, but also take their own lives...... This practice is even explicitly forbidden, and the enemy often uses it to trap others.

The battlefield is a real place, and the act of saving people for a certain spirit even though it won't work only exists in movies.

In a short time, only a bloody corpse and a wounded British soldier fell to the ground wailing in front of the battlefield.

Of course, the Germans would not have come to their rescue, because that would have meant stepping into a minefield.

So, the wounded just lay there and waited quietly for death to come.

Some of the British soldiers were aware of this and simply took it out and killed themselves.

At this time, Bazel shouted to everyone: "Disperse, air defense concealment!" ”

This order came as a bit of a surprise, as the German fighters were now gaining air superiority.

Then Qin Chuan understood...... More British fighters were coming soon.
