Chapter 605: Forced crossing the Oise

Fast, fast! For German armored soldiers, speed is their greatest magic weapon!

After finishing the task of encircling the main force of the British and French coalition forces in the north, almost all the German teams in the north began to move south quickly. Their target was Paris!

For any country, occupying their capital will mean conquering them. From this perspective, France is very dangerous.

Because Paris is just north of France!

It can be said that if the main force of the German team was not to encircle and annihilate the main force of the British and French coalition forces, but to advance into Paris, then Paris would have been defeated!

Now, the threat from the north no longer exists. For the German team, the next task is of course to cross the so-called Weigang line of defense and occupy Paris!

The French team reluctantly pieced together dozens of divisions and formed three armies: the 6th, 7th, and 10th armies formed the "Weigang Line of Defense" about 300 miles from east to west along the Somme and Eine. The division guards the Maginot line. The two lines of defense were joined together in an attempt to prevent German troops from going south.

And now, the German army has as many as 137 divisions!

For this reason, the base camp issued a combat mission. The Army Group B was the right wing, and the Army Group was the left wing for a breakthrough in the front of the Somme, and it made a frontal assault on the Aenne River.

On the second day after the order was given, Rommel’s 7th Armored Division crossed the Somme first. The French 10th Army that was defending Abbeville-Amiens was cut off, and other German divisions were able to rush in from this gap.

Two days later, Rommel's division arrived on the Seine, but here, he stopped the attack, turned north, and rushed hundreds of kilometers away, aiming at the coastline.

As a result, arrived at the destination that night, cut off the retreat of the French 9th Army, which was retreating to the coast, and completely captured the army.

At the same time, Rommel's action caused his army to fall behind and lost the opportunity to enter Paris first.

The left-wing group army, ever since it launched an offensive across the Aina River, has been going straight into an uninhabited state.

Along the way, they kept capturing groups of French troops. These French troops did not have any will to fight at all. Seeing the German tanks came up, they did not resist and surrendered directly!

Five days later, Guderian's army advanced more than 400 kilometers, captured 250,000 French troops, and successfully reached the Swiss border town of Pantariel, cutting off the French army's escape route to Switzerland in the Maginot Line.

However, not all armies are interested in capturing the enemy. The commander of some armored divisions focuses on one thing, that is, rushing into Paris!

At the forefront is the third armored division of the Waffen-SS. It also has a name called the Skeleton Division!

Their epaulettes are a small skeleton. Although they were established later, in several battles, their division has truly realized their ideals, turning the enemy into a skeleton!

Unfortunately, in this campaign against France, the Skeleton Division did not have a resounding name, and it was not even as good as the Seventh Armored Division in the Wehrmacht, the first to rush to Dunkirk.

In the French campaign, the Skeleton Division must have a resounding name. Now, the first troops to enter Paris must be the Skeleton Division!

"We don't have time to capture you, please go to the back by yourself!" Along the way, sitting on his tank, Armored Meyer shouted to the French soldiers who were about to surrender to him, holding a big horn.

At this time, Mayer has no time to accept the capture of French soldiers and leave it to the army behind! Everyone should eat meat together. You can't put all the meat in your mouth.

Oh, that German general is so cool!

We failed. It's not ashamed. The Germans are too good at fighting.

So, along the way, the French soldiers were in awe of the German general who was shouting with a loudspeaker, and they didn't even have time to capture their own party!

Meyer didn't know that he had acted hard, he just wanted to speed up.

After a quick trek, they first came to the Oise River. On the other side of the river was the defense line that Wei Gang organized in a hurry. They wanted to protect half of France by virtue of natural danger.

However, the youngest division commander in Germany, known as the general of Armor Meyer, would never give the French a chance!

Almost immediately after reaching the Oise River, Meyer did not take a breath and immediately ordered his subordinates to cross the river!

Forcibly cross the Oise!

As long as you have passed the Oise River, dozens of kilometers across from it, you will be Paris! This is already the last ditch of the French.

At this moment, on the other side of the river, the French team watched the German team moving in anxious manner. They were different from other troops. At least they knew that behind them was Paris!

"Buzzing." Above the head, the aircraft that is now well-known by the French team flew over~www.novelhall.com~ When it dived, the howling was so terrible.

Stuka bomber!

"Boom!" When Stuka pulled up from the dive, there was a huge explosion on the ground. In the explosion, a field artillery fortification was destroyed.

The rapid advancement of the German team is inseparable from the seizure of air supremacy. They don't need to worry about the threats above their heads, they should worry about the French on the opposite side!

"Quick, quick!" Kurt shouted to his subordinates, how do tank troops cross the river? Of course it depends on its own wheeled infantry fighting vehicle!

After finding a suitable shore, one after another wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, the rear engines roared, slowly drove into the water. When the tires began to spin, the driver put on the water gear. The two propellers at the tail began to rotate, pushing the infantry fighting vehicle and swimming forward.

Many French soldiers saw this for the first time, and they were shocked instantly.

The equipment of the Germans is simply against the sky, and their armored vehicles can actually sail on the water!

"Quickly, fire and stop them from coming!" At this time, the lower-level commanders were already in a hurry and had to stop the German team from crossing the river. Otherwise, if they came, how could they resist?

"Da da da da." A very strong machine gun began to fire at the German armored car on the river. The bullet hit the armor of the armored car and banged.

"boom!"

"boom!"

The explosion sounded one after another, and the French soldiers were horrified to find that their machine gun positions were being cleared one by one!

How to cross the river is already a common problem in German armored forces. Of course, it is to use wheeled infantry fighting vehicles! And while the wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are crossing the river, their tanks can also act as firepower points on the shore to eliminate the opposite threat!
