readx; Chen Jingyun and Chen Cai blamed newspapers and war correspondents for the loss of control of domestic military news, but in fact this is related to China's overall environment. The war correspondents and newspapers www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion are also very realistic, and they know that the news of the victory in the war in these years can no longer attract the attention of the people, because if they have seen too much, they will naturally not be interested, and when they first said, "When Ben surrendered, I didn't see a few Chinese take to the streets to celebrate, which is completely different from the situation in which people in many cities across the country took to the streets to celebrate after the victory in the Second Sino-Chinese War that year.

Now the Chinese are very calm, winning the battle is what it should be, what is so strange, if the battle is lost, it is called rare, one by one will buy newspapers to read, after reading it, it is to scold the commander for committing two crimes.

So once the boss of the newspaper stall on the street waved the newspaper and shouted: "The swing of the republic, the navy suffered a crushing defeat in the Mediterranean, and the third generation of the Hong general, Hong Ronghan, was martyred!" At that time, countless people crowded to buy newspapers. On the contrary, if you shout: "Outside the horn, Greece has won a great victory, and the army has annihilated more than 100,000 German troops!" "Nobody cares about you.

For example, if the Ninth Army, which is fighting in Europe, is completely annihilated by aliens tomorrow, the domestic media will definitely not dare to report it, and will only use the official statement: the army has turned extremely smoothly, how many cities have been captured along the way, and how many enemy troops have been annihilated...... If you dare to say that you have lost the war, you will not have to go the next day, and the people from the Investigation Bureau will immediately come and arrest you that night. This is no longer a matter of freedom of public opinion, but a major event that threatens national security and affects the country's subsequent war.

The big defeat is not to be reported, and the big victory is not attractive, so the domestic media are all focused on the small-scale defeated battles, and in these small-scale defeated battles, if any of the more famous generals are killed, it will be the best news topic.

And the people in China are also cheap, they don't like to watch the news of the victory of the army, they like to watch the news of the defeat, and they like to watch the stories of tragic war heroes. The combination of these factors also made Policastelon and the air raid on Venice the focus of domestic public opinion, they were almost the same, they were all alone, reinforcements were delayed, they were all defeated, and the top commanders who commanded the campaign at that time were all killed, and the commanders who died were all descendants of prominent and powerful families.

Therefore, in the past two years, many domestic newspapers have reported the most news of defeat, and if people who don't know the truth read it, they still think that China's continuous defeats around the world are worse than the Italian army.

While the Bureau of Internal Investigation has taken various measures to tighten the control of public opinion and prevent the domestic people from wailing every day when they read reports of defeat in the war, China's strategic actions in Europe have not stopped, on the contrary, they are proceeding extremely smoothly.

The European Expeditionary Force of the Allied Forces, with the Ninth Army of the Chinese Army as the main force, after capturing Greece, headed north towards Yugoslavia, and has now captured most of Yugoslavia. In the words of Marshal Song Junpeng, commander of the European Expeditionary Force of the Allied Forces: the expeditionary force has been able to see the spire of Viana Cathedral!

Although China's military operations in Europe occasionally suffered small defeats, with small units being heavily damaged, and even a mechanized infantry battalion being surrounded and annihilated by the Germans, on the whole, the troops were progressing extremely smoothly.

Time passed slowly, and in July, the Chinese-led coalition forces had already captured the entire territory of Yugoslavia and occupied most of Romania, while the western part of Romania was occupied by Soviet Russia.

The occupation of Romania by the coalition forces and Soviet Russia led to the further intensification of the conflict between China and Soviet Russia, and even small military clashes were maintained on the front line, fortunately the front commanders on both sides were ordered to exercise restraint, and the skirmishes did not lead to a large-scale war between the two countries in Romania.

China's purpose in sending troops to Romania in violation of last year's secret agreement with Soviet Russia was not to occupy Romania, but to indirectly block the pace of the Soviet Russian army's counteroffensive against Germany, leaving more time for a military coup d'état in Germany.

And as time passed, the French landing, which Britain and the United States had been preparing for for more than half a year, was finally launched.

To tell the truth, the scale and preparations for the British and American landings on the west coast of France this time are not as large as in history, and according to the traditional military point of view, they still need to prepare for at least half a year. But they don't have so much time to prepare.

As the Soviet army and the coalition forces quickly approached the German mainland, Britain and the United States were also anxious, they could not break through the German defenses in northern Italy, and even if they barely broke through, they could not enter the German mainland in a short time, so in order to compete for the interests of post-war Europe, they had to launch a landing operation on France in advance to ensure that they entered the German mainland in advance.

Moreover, it is already July, and in a few months it will be winter, and winter is even more unsuitable for landing operations, and as for next spring, the cucumbers and vegetables will be cold, and China and Soviet Russia will not even give the United States any scum.

So despite the tight schedule and poor preparations, Britain and the United States launched a large-scale landing on the western coast of France in early July.

On July 3, countless British and American warships gathered in the English Channel, countless planes flew in the sky, and landing ships carried countless soldiers and tanks on the beaches of Normandy.

At the same time, Britain and the United States also sent a large number of paratroopers to carry out airborne operations in the rear area of Normandy, seize key points of communication, and block the arrival of German reinforcements.

This landing operation was a larger-scale landing operation than the Tangjin landing launched by China against the city, which was the first to land only two marine divisions, and only after they captured the city of Tangjin did the main forces of the Third Army land one after another. However, with the landing of the British and American forces, the first batch of soldiers to land exceeded 100,000, and hundreds of thousands of troops will be transported from Britain to Normandy in the short term.

But in terms of the scale of the operation, it has already surpassed the Karatsu landing.

However, in the Normandy landings of the Anglo-American coalition forces, in addition to the large-scale use of paratroopers, in the landing operations, they greatly learned the tactics of China's multiple landing operations. After all, in the Pacific War, the United States actually did not carry out large-scale landing operations, but China carried out three large-scale landing operations, namely the Philippine landing, the Ryukyu landing, and the Dangjin landing. For example, China made large-scale use of tank landing ships in landing operations, and although the first batch of marines landed in China during the landing was ostensibly an infantry unit, it was actually a serious mechanized unit with a large number of amphibious tanks.

At the beginning, China's landing operations borrowed a lot from the details of the US military's landing during the battle for the Pacific islands, and in turn, the US landing operation in Normandy borrowed a lot from China's Tangjin landing and other operations.

Of course, the reason why the two sides can learn from each other is also related to the degree of mechanization of the armies of the two sides. For example, if Germany or Soviet Russia come, will they be able to send many aircraft carriers to serve as air supremacy in the landing theater? Is it possible to send numerous warships with large-caliber naval guns to provide fire support? Will their landing force be able to transport hundreds of tanks ashore in the first place with tank landing ships?

Something impossible!

Only two armies of equal strength can learn from each other to the greatest extent.

After many days of hard fighting, the Allies finally gained a firm foothold on the Normandy beachhead, but because the preliminary preparations were not too sufficient, and the German resistance was very strong, heavy troops were deployed in the Normandy area for anti-landing operations, resulting in great losses in the Allied landing operation. There were even cases where several divisions were completely disabled.

There is also a small influence of Chen Jingyun here, as a later person, he naturally knows the famous Normandy landing, I don't know the details, but it is enough to know a location. In order to give Germany's anti-war military top brass more time to prepare for the military coup, Chen Jingyun kindly reminded the Germans that the landing site of the Allied forces was most likely Normandy, not Calais, as the Germans had always believed.

As a result, the Wehrmacht deployed a large number of anti-landing forces in the Normandy area in advance, and although the remnants of the German army were still unable to resist the Allied landing operation, they still caused heavy casualties to the Allied forces.

When the Germans landed in China, they said that they were so weak that they basically gave up the measures of beachhead resistance, but concentrated their main forces in the operations after the landing, and used the complex basic salary to resist. The Germans, on the other hand, put up a stubborn resistance on the beachhead, and the Germans were not as good as they could compare, so much so that the beaches of Normandy were almost covered with the corpses of the Allies.

Almost all of the first people involved in the landing were so badly damaged that the Allies did not have the strength to advance quickly after taking the Normandy beachhead, so they could only consolidate the beachhead and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

"Now that the Allies have landed in France, there is not much time left for the Germans, what is the situation on the side of the MI, and when will the preparations be completed!" Chen Jingyun looked at the battle report in his hand, and then asked Lieutenant General Zhao Zijin, director of the Military Intelligence Department beside him.

Zhao Zijin said: "Now the relevant preparations have been almost completed, just wait for the final contact from the German side!" ”

The military coup d'état that the MI is preparing to launch in Germany is not just as simple as assassinating Hitler, but wants to let the senior generals of the German Wehrmacht fully control the supreme power in Germany, that is to say, not only to assassinate Hitler in the first place, but also to get rid of the Nazi Party at the same time, and in order for Germany to avoid a complete collapse after the coup, it is necessary to win over the majority of the military top brass and stabilize the political situation in Germany with the strong means of the military.

"Time is running out, you have to hurry up! We can't let the Allies invade Germany before launching it, because then the situation will be very bad for us! Chen Jingyun said.

If that were the case, then China would have to change its original plan and have to invade Germany in the shortest possible time, even into Berlin.

In order to prevent a change in the MIA's plan, Chen Jingyun felt the need to make preparations for the future.
