The northern army station.
"General, so far, we have made rapid progress. Among them, the 68th Regiment has followed the German armored division and occupied Atka. It seems that we can reach Zaragoza tomorrow." General Mora By his side, a close friend Kubala said to Mora.
Zaragoza, a city in eastern Spain, is in the position of a transportation hub.
Zaragoza is about 300 kilometers away from Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Bilbao. Its strategic location allows it to easily communicate with other places in Spain. It is the center of the highway network in northern Spain. Links Catalonia and the Basque countryside with the Rivant region and the Castilian plateau.
The occupation of Zaragoza is an important battle for the eastward advance! The Northern Army only needs to follow the German armored soldiers!
Mora nodded: "Yes, I really didn't expect that the German army's advancing speed would be so powerful!" Mora said: "Occupying the important area of Zaragoza will be a great honor for our Northern Army."
"General, I suggest you, after taking Zaragoza, fly there and give a speech, so that you can increase your prestige." Kubala said to Mora.
Mora shook her head: "Forget it."
prestige? What's the use of having high prestige? It's useless except to cause trouble to yourself.
"General, Zaragoza is a strategic location, and we should move the army's headquarters there." Kubala continued to him: "We take Zaragoza as the center and can radiate to the entire east. , Completely occupy there."
Kubala’s proposal fascinated Mora. Now, what he hopes most is to quell the war. It is indeed possible to transfer the headquarters there, transfer the main force of the Northern Army, and liberate the entire Northeast!
So Mora nodded: "Kubala, go and prepare. After Zaragoza is liberated, we will transfer the army headquarters."
Anyway, I have offended Franco, and he moved east by himself, also for Spain, and only do what he thinks is the most correct.
Kubala agreed and walked out, no one noticed his eyes, and no one knew what Kubala had decided at this time.
Mora pulled him out with one hand, but he was already loyal to Franco.
Zaragoza!
Surrounded by the wilderness, several military tents were propped up and lying on the table. Guderian used his magnifying glass to constantly look at the large-scale military map.
"We acted very quickly. It is said that there should be no response from Zaragoza," said Kurt, the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment. "As long as we continue to advance, we can cross the La Muela Valley and arrive. Zaragoza."
The central part of Spain is mountainous. In the past few days, the army has been advancing cautiously, advancing at a speed of about ten kilometers per hour, and once it has crossed the La Muela valley, it will reach the plains of the Ebro River basin. In these plains, the tank group’s charge is quite rapid.
Therefore, as long as you have played here, you will be in front of you!
Kurt wants to rush through the mountains early, so he hopes to follow the established route so that he can reach the plains by tomorrow morning!
However, looking at this map, Guderian has always been uneasy.
For armored soldiers, the mountains are their natural enemies. In the mountains, their troops will have to be compressed into a long snake formation, which is easy to be attacked!
Especially this La Muela Valley! There are mountains on both sides, and the road in the middle can only accommodate a single tank to pass through. Once one is bombed, the road will be interrupted!
The route here is the closest, but must it be the best?
The top of your own tank is too weak. If you move in this direction, once it encounters an ambush from the top of the mountain, it will be unable to respond from end to end. Although there are a large number of scouts on the front line, it is not such an easy task to detect all the tops of the mountains. In many places, motorcycles cannot get on.
What a difficult choice!
"Commander, General Cyric is calling." Just before hesitating, a telegraph soldier came in and reported.
General Cyric called? Guderian quickly took it, and the content of the telegram was very clear.
It is suggested that Muer go east, cross the Ebro River near Quinto, and fight back at Zaragoza.
General Cyric's advice is only a suggestion. How to go depends on Guderian's idea, but General Cyric's suggestion is undoubtedly more ingenious.
Go around!
The valley over there, how dangerous it is, just take a detour and head east, after passing the Ebro River, turn around and kill Zaragoza, I have to say, this kind of plan is even better!
It may be a waste of time ~www.novelhall.com~ But, I can definitely hit the opponent by surprise!
"Call back General Cyric and follow his plan." Guderian said: "The whole army, turn around and march eastward, march toward Muer!"
Zaragoza is in the northeast, now, to the east!
Guderian didn’t know that this turn of his side really made the Republican Army’s only chance to hinder his advancement in vain. Those Republicans on the mountain ran over from Zaragoza and set up a huge ambush. Circle, they were on the top of the mountain, eating the cold wind, waiting for several days, but no trace of the German armored soldiers.
Although I played a ping-pong game later, it was a pity that I made a mistake.
After the news that Zaragoza was breached in the rear, they suddenly realized that they wanted to come back, but it was too late.
Vulture Legion Station.
After receiving Guderian's telegram, Cyric relaxed. Just a few hours ago, Reinhardt’s informant sent a message from Zaragoza that all the garrisons there had been dispatched. At that time, Cyric tightened the string.
What will the other party do? That valley is definitely the best place to ambush, so Cyric made a suggestion. As for this plan, of course it was inspired by the famous Sidu Chishui in history.
"Bring here." Cyric, who was in a good mood, said to his guard Graf.
Bring it up! Graf shouted to the person at the door.
A man with five big ties was brought in. From the appearance, he was a young man. His face and eyes were all Germanic characteristics. He was a German and a German pilot.
However, he is not a member of the Vulture Legion. He is wearing the flight suit of the International Column, his face is black and blue, and there is a sense of unruly in his eyes.
