Chapter 86: Gathering Stars

The next morning, Qiao Xi and his party appeared at the Army Aviation Military Airport.

In addition to the six bodyguards and Linden, the white glove, there was also a blonde in green.

Needless to say, this woman is of course Ophelia.

It's just that, unlike the flying figure when she first met, Ophelia now looks apathetic and gloomy.

People who didn't know thought what a vicious thing Josie had done to this woman.

Well, it's kind of vicious to put a shock collar with a detonator that can't be removed.

After knowing the function of this collar, Ophelia felt bad.

That is, Josie didn't tell her that a miniature bomb was implanted in the back of her head, double insurance.

Otherwise, this woman will probably be more gloomy.

The plane that I took this time was the DC-3 that Josie was familiar with, to be precise, its military modified version, the C-47.

The English Channel is only more than 300 miles, which is very small for a range of 1,600 miles in DC.

After the start of World War II, except for a small number of civilians, most of the DC-3 were purchased by the military as transport aircraft. It was the largest type of aircraft used by the military for airdrops and transportation during World War II.

The U.S. airborne troops also use it.

After a flight of about two hours, the plane landed at a field airfield outside the northern French city of Caen.

After getting off the plane, you can still hear the sound of artillery fire from time to time in the distance, and you can also see the fleet of aircraft flying by from time to time in the sky.

Regardless of the fact that it is already the end of July, nearly two months have passed since the landing battle.

But the Allied positions in France were still very dangerous.

After all, France is only as big as a palm, and the Normandy landing zone is only about 200 kilometers away from Paris.

In this distance, more than four million troops of the Allies and Germans were crowded, intertwined with each other.

The depth of the Allied forces in the French region was still less than 100 kilometers. As for the city of Caen, the Allies fought for 33 days, and the entire city was almost bombed into ruins, and the Germans had to evacuate.

The Allied frontline command was moved to the outskirts of Caen, just last week.

In the city of Saint-Lo, which is less than 50 kilometers west of Caen, the famous General Patton personally led the deployment to capture the city just a few days ago.

But in general, the German army has begun to rout across the board, and it is only a matter of time before France can recover.

Mr. Kahn? Not long after Josh and his party got off the plane, three jeeps came galloping in the distance, and soon stopped not far away, a lieutenant colonel jumped out of the car and asked them.

In the entire military airport, Josie and the others were wearing suits and leather shoes, so they were easy to recognize.

It's me, what's your name? Josh asked politely.

I'm Mark, the adjutant of General McGinnis, and he asked me to pick you up! The lieutenant colonel shook hands with Josie.

As the bright light potion was purchased and applied by the military in large quantities before, and played a huge role during the landing war, the matter of General McGinnis being forced to retire naturally came to an end. There were no new appointments, so he just took an idle position in the headquarters.

But just a few days ago, an ironic thing happened.

On July 25, the first step of the Allies' famous Cobra plan, in the carpet bombing of German positions, was the most unlucky general in World War II, and was also the highest-ranking US military general killed in World War II, the deputy of General Eisenhower, and the second US military commander. The commander of the first army, Lieutenant General Leslie James McNair, was directly hit by a bomb from his own bomber and exploded into a pile of stumps.

Coincidentally, McGinnis's position before his dismissal was commander of the First Army, and McNair was his replacement after his dismissal.

So it can only be said that God is helping McGinnis... Under the same circumstances, who is more suitable to serve as the commander of the first group than him?

absolutely not.

As for General Courtney Hodges, who succeeded this position in history, he was only the second-in-command of the first group before, and he was no match for McGinnis in terms of qualifications and prestige.

Therefore, General McGinnis directly reinstated the official cheerfully.

For Josie, investing in General McGinnis has also become the most successful investment since he came to Europe.

McGinnis, who returned to his old post, was promoted to be an admiral, and that was appropriate.

As for the five-star general, don't even think about it, that's impossible.

Take Patton, the commander of the Third Army next door.

In the previous life, there were many people on the Internet who complained about Patton and felt that he should also get the rank of a five-star general.

But as long as you learn more about the requirements of a five-star general, you will know that Patton does not have this qualification.

Because a necessary condition for becoming a five-star general is that he must have served as the commander-in-chief of the theater during the war... Obviously, it is impossible for Patton, who was promoted to general with other army commanders on the eve of the end of the war, to have this qualification.

McGinnis naturally couldn't.

But being able to have an admiral-level ally in the army is enough for Josie.

Because the city of Caen is almost in ruins, and the city is relatively easy to become a bombing target, the frontline headquarters of the Allied forces is not in the city, but in a manor in the jungle more than ten kilometers away from the city.

After arriving at the headquarters and handing over the weapons, Josie and his party, led by Lieutenant Colonel Mark, made their way to McGinnis's office unimpeded.

Josie, welcome to France! Seeing Josie walking into the office, McGinnis immediately stood up, stepped forward and gave Josie a warm hug.

Congratulations too, the official resumed his post. I came in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare the gift, so I can only use this box of cigars to express my feelings! After hugging, Josie took out a box of cigars without any signs from his pocket.

Hahaha, Josie, you're too polite, we don't need to be so polite! Although McGinnis said not to be polite, he still happily took the cigar.

Don't look at this cigar without any markings, it seems like a three-no product.

But McGinnis, who was already familiar with Josie, knew that the more three-nothing products Josie had in his hands, the better things, just like his wines.

In fact, this is indeed the case, because these things are all tributes that Daenerys has made meticulously by the best craftsmen with the best materials. The quantity that can be given to Josie is extremely limited, and it is impossible to take out. of.

By the way, why are you suddenly running to the front line? Although the German army is already defeated, it is still very dangerous, and it is not suitable for your business. McGinnis asked after the greeting.

This is Ophelia Sarkistan, from Austria, we have a very important matter, we want to see General Marshall! Josie first introduced Ophelia, and then prepared Austria for a coup d'etat eloquently.

Is she trustworthy? After hearing Josie's remarks, McGinnis' face also became very serious, ignoring Ophelia, but pulling Josie aside and asking.

As far as this matter is concerned, she is trustworthy. I have confirmed the authenticity of this matter through other channels! Josie nodded.

After listening to Josie's assurance, McGinnis did not speak, but kept pacing back and forth in the office.

After all, this matter is of great importance, as long as there is a little falsehood, the Allies may suffer a lot of unnecessary losses!

And once this matter fails, McGinnis, as the referrer, will also bear most of the responsibility.

After thinking about it for a few minutes, General McGinnis clapped his hands and decided to accompany Josie on this bet.

It can be said that Josie has contributed a lot to his ability to resume his post. In this case, why not continue to gamble?

Anyway, losing the bet, for a person of his level, means losing his official hat.

Is this a thing for McGinnis, who has already lost his official hat once?

You wait here, I'll report to General Marshall! After thinking about it, McGinnis told Josie, and walked out of the office in a hurry.

Then Josh and his party drank tea in McGinnis' office for nearly two hours before a colonel came in and called Josh and Ophelia.

Under the guidance of the colonel, the two walked for a long time before entering a spacious conference room.

Guys, the stars will be gathered.

At that moment, a thought popped up in Josh's mind, if a bomb with enough power was dropped into this conference room, what would World War II look like?

It was released on the first day, and the results were unexpectedly good. The first order was 4650, which was the best result since Xiao Chen wrote the book. I was very moved. Thank you very much for your support!

thank you so much!
