"Drinking water does not forget the source of thought..."

A sudden sentence from Xu Yang made the staff of the group army commander fall into a state of improperness. They looked at the leader they respected with strange expressions, and couldn't figure out what magical mechanism was revealed in that sentence?

[Drinking water does not forget to remember the source of thought?] It must be related to this battle, so what is the relationship?

At the moment when the front positions are about to face Allied attacks, the Army Command is very busy. The staff will receive information from the avant-garde positions, that is, those occupied French towns, and report that the troops have entered the town to set up firepower points. The town can play a good blocking role. It has become impossible for the Allied forces to pass quickly. The German soldiers of the avant-garde positions will block the Allied vanguard troops in front of those towns. If nothing unexpected happens, each town can withstand at least 4-6 hours, or longer.

At such a tense moment, Xu Yang, the commander of the 15th Army, was writing something with a pen, and he wrote very seriously. It was a book that Xu Yang had been writing since early on, and its name was not yet determined, but the content had reached an astonishing 400,000 words. This book, which is unnamed, involves military, economics, people's livelihood, etc. Recently, Xu Yang was writing about the content of the nation, and the sentence he just said was purely inspired.

The meaning of "drinking water without forgetting the source of thought" is extremely simple, but its meaning is so important. Its description is: When we drink water, don't forget where the water comes from. Just like when we enjoy something, it does not come out of thin air, but is the result of efforts created by others. If a nation can forget the efforts made by a person, then this nation will be corrupt and eliminated and replaced by another nation.

Rick has been following Xu Yang. He knew the meaning of the saying "Drinking water and not forgetting the source of thought". However, it was obvious that it was not the time to pay attention to these things. The reconnaissance plane sent a report that the vanguard of the Allied troops had appeared in the town of Muss, Carlo, and Sinaire. In another three hours, they would have exchanged fire with their own troops ambushed in the forefront.

"Our Excellency, our troops have all entered the position. The air force starting from Essen will fly over our heads in five minutes to harass the Allied vanguard." Rick pointed to the map, "In the direction of the town of Muss, the reconnaissance plane No. 6 found two battalions of French infantry approaching, and it will enter the fire range of the 2nd Motorized Battalion in about 2 hours."

Xu Yang raised his head and whispered: "Rick, I have a cold."

This was extremely bad for the 15th Army. Now that the battle was about to start, the commander caught a cold. It would undoubtedly hit the hearts of the soldiers of the 15th Army! Rick looked around nervously, and found that no one was paying attention to this side, and then asked urgently: "Your Excellency?"

Xu Yang lowered his head again, "I have been thinking recently about how we will evaluate what we do. Someone told me that as long as I have worked hard, no matter what the result is, it will be acceptable because we have worked hard."

For the first time, Rick discovered that his leader's face would look tired, and a shock spread in Rick's heart, but the fatigue of Xu Yang's face flashed, as if it had never appeared before."

Xu Yang smiled self-deprecatingly and whispered: "39 and a half degrees, the doctor has prescribed antipyretics, which makes me want to sleep very much." He suddenly stopped laughing, "Rick!"

Rick's nerves were tense, and his positive expression was: "Yes! Your Excellency."

Xu Yang's tone was firm: "I don't want to lose!"

Rick's face was full of worry, and he suggested: "Your Excellency, you should have a good rest. We will not lose. The subsequent troops will arrive at 3 pm this afternoon. At that time, our defense line will be joined by the infantry brothers, which will be as solid as a matter of energy. The Allies will not break through our defense line and launch an attack on Guderian's troops."

The motorized division of the 15th Army established three temporary defense lines on the main roads on the north bank of the Maas River by guarding the positions of the French town. German soldiers were no strangers to the trench war in World War I. Under the demonstration of veterans, the entire army started digging trenches. Barbed wire was set up 00 meters in front of the trenches, and a large number of anti-destructive mines were buried on the ground at 500 meters. There was an average of one light machine gun every 30 meters in the trenches, and a G-34 heavy machine gun with a tripod every 0 meters, further behind; the artillery troops temporarily established camouflage bunkers.

In addition, in order to prevent the sudden attack from France on the south bank of the Maas River, Xu Yang arranged a motorized brigade to guard near Nantes, but this was just a preventive measure, be careful not to make a mistake. The French team on the south bank were busy digging trenches and waiting for the German attack. Before the Allied reinforcements arrived, the French team with insufficient troops would not take the initiative to launch an attack at all.

"I have no doubt about the combat effectiveness of 'my army'. Of course those good guys can block the Allies. I am wondering whether the efforts will be rewarded and whether people will agree with me. Loss? Winning? It is not just on the battlefield. In many invisible places, you will never be able to turn over once you lose."

Rick was speechless. He had different roles and could not feel the pressure on Xu Yang at all. Rick knew and understood that if a person carried too much, it would be extremely tragic.

‘Drinking water does not forget the source of thought’? Yes! While people enjoy the fruit, will they think about how this fruit comes from?

Rick thought to himself: "The commander needs a sense of identity! For example, while readers read the stolen posts, don't forget to come back and vote."

...

The commander of the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion of the 15th Army and the 2nd Motorcycle Division was the first group of graduating from the Young Miao Military Academy. He was also Xu Yang's partner, Hohenzollern, who served in Poznan for three years.

Major Hohenzollern had a very irritable temper, but he called himself "a**". When the soldiers were eating and replenishing their energy, as the commander, he was waving a can of 120 grams of sausage in his hand and roaring quietly. He always seemed so energetic and endless sweat.

In the field, when there is no condition to eat hot food, both soldiers and officers will hold food in the backpack for three days. It may be some solid marinated cans, and some packaged compressed biscuits are usually canned during wartime, and the packaging is easy to crush. Obviously, the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion has the conditions to eat a hot meal. At this time, the soldiers will hold their lunch boxes, smile happily, and chew noodles with fresh meat and fresh fruits and vegetables in big mouthfuls. The French who were detained in the chapel had the same food as the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion.

These soldiers were all simple Germanic people. In the past, they fought to regain the land belonging to Germany. Now that all the land that had been separated was recaptured by the motherland, they were just fighting simply by executing orders. In fact, many people don’t care why the war continues. Germany has regained the lost land, so what is missing? The consciousness of a strong country! That’s right, it is the consciousness of a strong country. Many Germanic people long to teach their old enemy the French a lesson, which is the reason why ordinary soldiers want to continue fighting.

The reason why Mus Town is called a town is not that it is very large, but that it produces milk, with economic conditions and sufficient fame, which can be called a town in France. After eating hot food, soldiers in the 25th Motorcycle Battalion will happily drink a cup of warm milk. The milk can increase people's physical strength and replenish enough calories needed by the human body. In wartime, it is very necessary for soldiers to replenish 4,500 calories per day, which can make soldiers fight for a long time without feeling tired. A combat-capable elite unit will always pay attention to every detail that soldiers need.

Is it possible that the elite troops with hunger and malnutrition have existed? Whether you can carry a gun or not is still a problem. Now, after replenishing the calories, you will start to check your own equipment, firearms, ammunition and all pockets of your clothes are the focus of the inspection. Firearms and ammunition are the guarantee of life, and the things in the clothes pocket are even more important items to protect life. Every soldier has a first aid kit inside the inner bag, which is a necessity for self-rescue when he is shot. Many times, the first aid kit in the inner bag can save the life of the person who is shot. The right chest bag is a small first aid kit and a pack of skin disinfectant, which are some calcium hypochlorite tablets used to clean the surface of the skin contaminated by skin chemical weapons.

Each rifle soldier will carry 60 rifle rounds during wartime, including 10-15 steel-core armor-piercing bullets, or 5-10 tungsten carbide-core armor-piercing bullets. This is to use the bullets used by rifle soldiers to kill enemy armored vehicles when there is no need for firepower. At a distance of 1,000 meters, the armor-piercing bullets fired by rifle soldiers can penetrate the armor of 1014 armored vehicles. At the same time, each rifle soldier's armed ammunition belt will also carry 2 wooden handle grenades on the waist, and the army and non-commissioned officers will hang 6 oval grenades on the armed ammunition belt.

After the rifle soldiers checked their equipment, they began to enter the house under the order of the squad leader. Some squads were given special orders, which was to protect the machine gun shooters in the house. At the heights of some residential buildings, there were machine gun fire points of the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion, and each fire point had three chief, deputy, and auxiliary machine gunners. When the No. 1 machine gun shooter was killed, the No. 2 machine gun shooter would be repaired. When the No. 1 machine gun shooter was not killed, the No. 2 shooter was just an ammunition replenishment soldier. The soldier would carry 4 50 round ammunition chains and a 300 round ammunition box with him. The No. 3 shooter carried 3 300 round ammunition boxes.

The machine guns of the German Motorcycle Battalion are equipped with one machine gun squad for each platoon, 9 machine gun shooters, one commander, and three G-34 machine guns. When fixing defense, the G-34 will be equipped with a tripod chassis and transformed into a heavy machine gun. The G-34 heavy machine gun equipped with a tripod chassis can fire 900 stick bullets per minute. It is definitely a powerful weapon that makes the enemy tremble.

There is also a platoon of armored soldiers carrying shoulder-type bazooka guards in the town of Mus. They will hide in the houses until the arrival of Allied armored vehicles. They will not join the battle before that. The opportunity for these firepowerers to join the battlefield must be sudden enough to destroy the enemy's armored vehicles in an instant, causing the enemy's infantry to lose their "shield".

Behind the town of Mus, there is a hidden mortar company that can provide fire support to the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion at any time. This mortar company has a wireless motor. After receiving the order from the battalion command, it will bombard the coordinates provided by the battalion headquarters.

‘Boom!’

The explosion came too suddenly.

Hohenzollern was shocked and quickly issued a combat order. His battalion headquarters was in the center of the town, and there was a platoon of reserve teams in the battalion headquarters to reinforce tight areas at any time.

...

Today was a really unlucky day for the French scout cavalry Dora. His fat horse had just stepped on something. Before he could react, his whole body was already flying in mid-air. When Dora hit the ground heavily, he was lucky to find that he was not injured, but his love riding was missing a front hoof and wailing. Next to the fat horse with few front hoofs, one of his companions and the mount fell in the center of the road without moving. The red and white liquid on the ground told Dora that his companions were finished.

"Attack...attack!!!" El Raflan gave up the injured Ai Knight very simply, and he fell to the ground and didn't dare to move. To be honest, he is still not sure whether it was the enemy's shelling or other things. His intuition told him: Raflan, don't look up, otherwise the bullets that shot through your head will be greeted!

Eric's calf was also penetrated by something, which made him unable to ride on the horse and jump out of the saddle. Just as he was glad that he finally used his hand to open the damn, too tight saddle, the expression that was about to laugh became his last face-skin action in his life. A bullet shot from the direction of Muss Town shot directly through Eric's head, leaving him swaying on the horse's belly.

Dora hid in the grass and looked forward. He had a pair of eyes with good eyesight, which was the reason why he was selected as a scout cavalry. However, except for a farmhouse about 1,200 meters ahead, he had not yet discovered an enemy shooter. Dora relied on good eyesight to see a shadow on the right window of the farmhouse. At this time, the concept of sniper was not valued by the Allies. Dora only regarded that person as a German army with excellent marksmanship. While lowering his voice, he asked Al Raflan to stop moving, he pulled his rifle and made a move to aim down. However, just as he was aiming hard, the damn eyelids were jumping again...

El Raflan heard another gunshot. It was definitely not the sound of French standard gun-equipped 1916 rifle shooting. The sound of German Mauser was louder and very "sturdy", while the sound of 1916 rifle shooting was relatively "brittle", which was two completely different gunshots. Judging from this, Raflan knew that besides Bell, who went back to report, he was the only one left in the reconnaissance squad and was not finished.

"Diet in battle? Surrender? Surrender... Surrender..." Two thoughts kept struggling in El Raflan's head. He lay on the ground for about five minutes until the German observers approached, "...Surrender. The warrior is not a reckless fool, the emperor... forgive me."

El Raflan did not dare to stand up directly. His first move was to slowly raise his right arm and shout standard German in his mouth: "I surrender, don't shoot..." Then he supported the ground with his left hand, and slowly supported half of his body, making a half-squat movement. In order to show that he had no intention of resisting, he raised his hands high. French army's standard surrender movement

It is very interesting to say. When the French soldiers stationed on the Maginot Line of Defense learned that Poland was defeated within half a month, and the capital Paris was bombarded, they began to learn German. They only learned one sentence, that is, 'I surrender, don't shoot'. It can be imagined that such an army can have the combat effectiveness. When they failed in battle and were not restrained by their superiors, their first thought must be: surrender!

...

Hohenzollern finally met the first Frenchman, a surrendered French scout cavalry. Under Xu Yang's indoctrination, Hohenzollern always felt that surrender was a shame. He believed in: if he failed, he died gloriously.

"Oh..." Hohenzollern looked fierce, "Will you fucking repeat that sentence?"

Although El Raflan surrendered, he still repeated his name, unit number, and soldier number with the pride of the Gauls. In fact... from the moment of surrender, the so-called pride had gone away from him.

Henke, the battalion chief of the 2nd Motorcycle Battalion, was an extremely cold man. He always liked to have a dead face, looked extremely gloomy, and his tone of speaking was never warm. At this time, he was looking down at El Raflan, "It's good there. The crotch seems to be fine. Commander, which part do you want?"

El Raflan had long noticed this guy with a dead face. When he was looked at by the cold eyes, he had goose bumps everywhere he was staring at. When he heard the cold voice saying "crotch, thigh,..." these body terms, El Raflan felt like he was like a pig waiting to be slaughtered and stewed.

"Brutal... cruel... easy to kill..., what else? I heard that the ancestors of the Germans like to eat human flesh? Human flesh? Raw?" El-Rafran suddenly felt that he should have just chosen to die in gloriously.

"..." Hohenzollern smiled, "Corporal El Rafarlan, your companions are dead in battle. Where are you?"

El Raflane was about to start struggling again. Under the cold glance of Henke, he finally decided to make a 'deal'. He mustered up the courage, "I am the scout cavalry of the 157th French Infantry Regiment. If you can give me the treatment I deserve, I can reveal some information to exchange."
