Thus, at the beginning of the Ardennes campaign, a German paratroop unit was facing an attack by Allied forces several times larger than its own, in Balagmitchell, outside the main battlefield. Since this was the only way to Bastoni, the Allied offensive was quite ferocious. The area on both sides of the road has changed hands several times, and the bodies of officers and soldiers killed on both sides are littered.

There are more than 10,000 people in an airborne division of the Allied army, and there are a lot of heavy weapons to assist, and even a small number of tanks to help, but fortunately, Haight still carries RPGs and iron fists to parachute, but the number is not very large, so the two sides fought extremely fiercely.

The Allies were trying to open the door to escape, and the airborne German troops also had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground, so they could only fight to the death, so the casualties on both sides were extremely large, mainly because the German paratroopers had no artillery support, and could only resist with flesh and blood.

By the 19th, Haidt had less than 600 men left with him, and he was running out of ammunition and rations. The frontal attack of the SS 6th Panzer Army had not yet arrived, and Haight had a hunch that the prospects for the mission were not good.

On the 20th, Haidt was forced to make a decision to abandon the intersection of the Balagmitchell road and retreat to a nearby town, which turned out to be a careful logistics point for the Allied front.

The combat effectiveness of these Allied logistics troops was very poor, and as soon as they saw the Germans, they basically immediately raised their hands and surrendered, and 80 percent of the Allied logistics units of a company surrendered, and only a few were killed. And the material they guarded was intact.

After inventory, it was found that there were more than 30 truckloads of materials in this Allied front-line supply point, which should be a regimental-level supply point for the Allied forces. Among these substances were several truckloads of food, more than a dozen truckloads of ammunition, more than twenty truckloads of shells, four 150-mm cannons, six 75-mm anti-tank guns, eighteen Maxine heavy machine guns, and twelve mortars.

Haight looked at the ammunition and was immediately ecstatic. This is simply a gift from God. Although the paratroopers were elite, they lacked heavy weapons, and if a large enemy force came to attack, the casualties would be the heaviest.

Now Haight suddenly got so many heavy weapons and ammunition. Completely a heavy firepower configuration of a heavy regiment. Although Haight now has only more than 500 people left. But it is possible to make full use of these heavy firepower, and it is said that the houses in this town are basically made of stone, which is very strong. It can be used as a bunker completely.

The allies are trying to beat Haite at this time, it is no longer possible, Haite wants heavy weapons at this time, and the terrain has to defend the terrain, not to mention that Haidt's remaining paratroopers are the elite of the elite. An Allied paratrooper division is trying to eat Haidt, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

Soon the Allied 92nd Parachute Division pursued, and the Allies sent tanks and infantry to launch a battalion-sized charge, as before, and the result can be imagined, the eight Allied tanks participating in the assault were completely turned into bonfires and parts, and the Allied infantry was covered with corpses in the storm of bullets.

This town is also stuck next to the road where the Allies retreated, but it is more than 500 meters away from the road, and now the Germans have artillery, even if the Allies do not fight this town, they will not work, and the Germans in the town can block the road with artillery at any time.

The Allies could only attack with no regard for casualties, and Haidt and the remaining paratroopers met them with a merciless rain of bullets. This fight is dark and inseparable.

Two days later, the 6th SS Panzer Division finally arrived with two infantry divisions, and the Allied attacking forces immediately dispersed, and the 6th SS Panzer Division continued to attack non-stop, and there was no suspense about the loss of Nancy, because the two German forces in the north and south had almost reached the peripheral positions of Nancy, and as long as Nancy was occupied, hundreds of thousands of Allied troops in the Ardennes area would be dumpled again.

At this time, the focus of the strategy shifted to the Western Front, which provided opportunities for Germany as long as the Soviet front temporarily stabilized the situation. At this time, the Allies also had serious differences, Eisenhower's main battle continued to attack the Maginot Line with all his might, while Britain advocated retaining its vitality and breaking through immediately, because the German encirclement at this time was not tight, not to mention that the German army had to concentrate its forces to encircle and annihilate hundreds of thousands of Allied troops in the Ardennes, so the German army had even fewer mobile troops.

In the end, Roosevelt personally flew to London, England to meet with Churchill, and the two began to discuss secretly, and the decision to decide the fate of the remaining two million Allied troops would be decided by this secret meeting between the two of them, and whether the Allies would fight a decisive battle or break through to outsiders is unknown.

……

After completing the complete encirclement of the Ardennes region, Li Mo also held a large military meeting, when Li Mo stepped into the conference room, he was greeted by continuous applause, applause lasted for a long time, there is no commander who does not like to lead them to victory, the army is a monster that needs to be constantly cultivated with victory.

Li Mo said at the meeting:

"Never in the entire history of the world has there been such an alliance as hostile to us, with such complex compositions and so divergent aims. On the one hand, there are extreme capitalist countries, and on the other hand, extreme Sovietist countries. Among the capitalist countries, on the one hand, is the dying world empire, the British Empire, and on the other hand, the 'colony' that is bent on inheriting its clothes, the United States.

The United States is determined to take the place of Britain in the world. The USSR was in a hurry to get its hands on the Balkans, the Dardanelles, Persia and the Persian Gulf. Britain was anxious to preserve its ill-gotten gains and preserve its power in the Mediterranean.

These countries are already squabbling, and their confrontation is clearly growing at any time. If Germany were to deal a very heavy blow now, this artificially united front would collapse with a thunderbolt at any moment.

In the end, the war ends when one side or the other admits that no one can win. We must let the enemy know at all times that they will not defeat us, no matter what they do. Never! Never! A successful tactical offensive, in any case, would frustrate the Allied plans for a long time, forcing the Allies to face the question of having to discuss among their political leaders first, and now the Allied forces in the Ardennes were our target, and we were to destroy them completely and cleanly, and let the Allies know that the Germans were invincible. ”

However, Limer did admit that Nancy's goal was a bit risky, perhaps beyond the reach of the existing forces and their conditions. Nevertheless, he decided to attack Nancy with all his might and completely encircle the Allied forces in the Ardennes, because Germany needed a respite. He hoped that through this offensive he would be convinced of its success - to regain the initiative again, to buy time for the development and use of new weapons, and for the expected split of the Allied camp.
