"You still have two choices!" Zhang Chi said to Jon: "You order your subordinates to hand over the equipment, or I order your subordinates to do it!" ”

Jon replied, "General, I need orders from General Montgomery!" ”

"I don't think you understood me!" Zhang Chi said: "You don't have a third choice!" ”

After thinking about it, Jon could only sigh and say, "Yes, General, I will ask my subordinates to hand over the equipment!" ”

Jon made the right choice, as it would at least give the British a step down to hand over their equipment decently, otherwise...... That was almost disarmed by the Chinese army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Chi's attitude towards Jon is so tough and does not give any mercy, on the one hand, because he still remembers the revenge on the battlefield in Myanmar, and on the other hand, he really does not have time to rub shoulders with Jon's gang at this time.

The order was quickly conveyed, but the British soldiers were quite distracted when they handed over the equipment.

"Hey, did you hear that? Our tanks and armored vehicles were handed over for the Chinese army! ”

"What? For the Chinese, can they drive tanks? Chinese?! ”

"It's ridiculous that these equipment will be given to the Chinese!"

"So what do we do? How to resist the attack of the Germans without tanks and armored vehicles? ”

"Forget it! The colonel asked us to equip tanks and armored vehicles just to break through, understand? In other words, run away! So giving equipment to the Chinese is not considered a bad thing, is it? They probably won't use it, but at least not for escape, otherwise they wouldn't have come at all! ”

……

If Zhang Chi heard this, he was afraid that a mouthful of blood would spurt onto the ceiling...... These hateful Britons, the purpose of their equipment is to better escape.

Then, when the British soldiers reluctantly handed over their tanks and armored vehicles to the Chinese soldiers, they were surprised by the scene......

At first, those British soldiers even wanted to explain a few words to the Chinese soldiers, hoping that they would not operate those tanks and armored vehicles indiscriminately, but they did not expect that the Chinese soldiers did not pay attention to their nonsense at all, and jumped on the armored vehicles and tanks and drove away with a "boom" as soon as they gave the order...... Tanks are tanks, armored vehicles are armored vehicles, and they are neatly arranged in rows on the playground.

"What the fuck is going on?" One British soldier said: "They look much more sophisticated than we are!" ”

"Dude, they're so much more sophisticated than us!" Another British soldier replied: "Compared to them, we are almost children who have just learned to walk, and we even thought not long ago that they could not drive tanks!" ”

Some British soldiers asked: "Are they really Chinese?" ”

"I remember!" A voice in the crowd said, "Remember what the newspaper said about a Chinese army?" Again and again in the Pacific theater, they have accomplished tasks that the Americans could not do! ”

"You mean...... Chinese Expeditionary Force! ”

"Yes, that's them!"

……

So the British soldiers surrounded the Chinese soldiers with a "boom" and asked questions to the Chinese soldiers.

The soldiers of the expeditionary force have been working with the American army for a long time, and although not all of them can speak English, they can communicate with the British in a few simple words or gestures without any obstacles, so they quickly chatted.

It's just that the expeditionary force looks down on the British in their hearts...... This mentality is somewhat similar to Zhang Chi, the Chinese are emotional, they have been deceived by the British army again and again in Burma, and they have not let go of their hearts, so a considerable number of expeditionary soldiers do not have a good face towards the British.

The advantage after talking about it is that the problem of equipment was quickly solved, and the soldiers of the expeditionary force could have whatever they wanted, and the British soldiers were very enthusiastic about it, and at the same time, the morale was unprecedentedly high...... Until then, all of them had decided that they had no hope of holding Maharamah, and many of them, including Commander Jon, were planning to flee or surrender.

Just kidding, an infantry battalion can't hold a German armored division, even if it's three heads and six arms!

Even knowing that a Chinese division was coming to reinforce did not change their minds, after all, it was an army division, and there was still a big gap in dealing with armored divisions.

However, when they learned that this Chinese division was the Chinese Expeditionary Force that played a prestigious role in the Pacific Theater, their attitude was completely different, and the tone of their words changed completely:

"No wonder they are so skilled in using American-style equipment, it turns out that they are from American troops!"

"Hey, they're not just Americans! It is said that their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the US Marine War! ”

"I also heard that some people analyzed it because it combines the advantages of the Chinese spirit of hardship and American equipment!"

"So...... We probably don't have to be prisoners of the Germans? ”

"Maybe, but who knows?"

……

Indeed, no one can say for sure what will happen on the battlefield, even the Chinese army itself is not completely sure, and even many soldiers have no idea of the enemy they are about to face, that is, the German armored division...... Because this is the first time they've played each other.

While the soldiers of the expeditionary force were getting the weapons and equipment they needed and undergoing intense adaptation training, Zhang Chi watched the intelligence collected by Colonel Jon about the German armored division in the command headquarters.

"It was the German 21st Panzer Division that broke through the gap and attacked us!" "The preliminary estimate is that there are more than 300 tanks, and the commander, Major General Heinz Landau, is one of the first officers to land in North Africa to fight, and he has a lot of combat experience......

"Where they are now!" Zhang Chi asked.

"According to the first ......information," Jon found a location on the map, and said, "Their location is probably here, in the area of Soshim, which is about an hour away from us!" ”

"Colonel!" At this time, a communications soldier handed Jon another telegram, saying, "Latest information! ”

Jon looked at it and said, "No, they're only forty minutes away from us now!" ”

Zhang Chi's heart sank, only forty minutes...... It may even be shorter, and now he doesn't even have a plan, and he has very little information about the German army...... How should this battle be fought?!

"General!" Jon said anxiously, "I suggest ordering the troops to consolidate the defense line immediately, you have all the equipment, haven't you?" If it drags on any longer, the Germans will be in the city! ”

"The line of defense?" Zhang Chi asked rhetorically, "You mean the ditch you dug?" ”
