Imperial Overlord

Just look at his legendary life to see how awesome Otto Skorzeny is. He is arguably the most famous special forces commander in the world, known as the most dangerous man in Europe.

This person once rescued Mussolini with a glider from the top of the mountain, and successfully escaped from prison under the supervision of the Allied forces.

His troops, dressed in American uniforms, disrupted the enemy's rear, and at one point confused the enemy, throwing them into chaos regardless of friend or foe.

And who are he under? He was commanding the German special forces! A great force that was later added to countless myths.

Even if they are only exposed to games, young people in later generations have heard about the GSG-9 unit.

GSG-9 has become one of the most experienced special forces in the world because of the anti-hijacking battle at Mogadishu airport.

In that battle, they took out three terrorists who had hijacked the plane in 106 seconds and wounded another.

As for why the German special forces are so powerful, it has something to do with their clock-like character.

Special forces operations are about cooperation, and the German personality makes them more suitable for executing step by step according to the plan.

Now, the German special forces, which are not yet fully mature, and Skorzeny, who are not yet fully developed, are being sent to the Soviet front line to perform a rapid breakthrough mission.

This bridge is their first fixed-point capture mission. And now it seems that they have accomplished this task very well.

The positions were littered with the corpses of Soviet soldiers, and German cars were driving over the bridge one by one.

The bridge that was taken by Skorzeny may be the best bridge in the vicinity and the highest allowable traffic.

Capturing this bridge will ensure that the Panther tanks of the German armored forces can pass smoothly and continue to attack.

The tanks of the 501st Armored Battalion had already passed through here at this time, heading towards the distant Vitebsk.

Even worse, Marshal Budyonny, who was far away in Smolensk, didn't know that his vital road bridge had been lost, and he didn't know that his defense line had actually been opened.

"You guys have done a really good job, and I'm very satisfied." Looking at Skorzeny, who had no scars on his face and still looked handsome, Manstein said with a smile.

This time the Führer gave him the most elite special forces and let him use it when capturing the bridge, which really helped him a lot.

If the commanding force swept all the way, of course, it would not be difficult for the German field troops.

But if you want to attack the designated location before the Soviets blow up the bridge, and prevent the Soviets from blowing up the bridge, that is a whimsical idea.

Skorzeny's troops provided this option, and indeed accomplished such an impossible task with their superb tactics.

"Performing the most impossible task for the head of state is the meaning of our existence." Skorzeny also had a smile on his face.

Compared with the various subjects they trained in the previous half year, the battles now can be regarded as the existence of pediatrics.

Even if the Fuhrer ordered them to perform an infiltration mission at this time, sneak all the way to Moscow and perform the mission of assassinating Stalin, they dared to try it.

"Being able to capture this bridge has increased my marching speed for at least 3 days. It is estimated that the Soviets will wake up when I reach Vitebsk." Manstein looked at the truck passing in front of him and told the Fuhrer. said the confidant of love.

Skorzeny didn't mean the slightest bit of pride: "If you need it, I can lead someone to infiltrate Vitebsk..."

"No! No no! There is no need for that! Let my troops do the rest! They also need to prove themselves, not follow you and wait for victory." Manstein rejected Si Korzeny's proposal.

The head of state is willing to take out special forces to help, which is already a huge support. If the special forces are abused, resulting in the loss of this force, it will be a blow to the head of the state.

So Manstein doesn't plan to use such a weapon of the country anymore. I heard that they still have a lot of tasks to perform.

At this moment, the road to the Vitebsk region for the German armored forces was smooth, at least on the ground.

"We have to set up air defense positions around here, and this matter cannot be taken lightly!" After sending Skorzeny away, Manstein said to the officer beside him: "Go and deploy yourself!"

He didn't want the bridge captured by the Führer's special forces to be blown up by the Soviet Air Force.

To repair the bridge, it is a huge project. It's not just a matter of delaying time, it is even more deadly to squeeze the transport capacity of the logistics force.

"Sir, I have deployed 4 anti-aircraft guns around..." The officer beside Manstein replied.

Who knows, he didn't wait for Manstein's compliment, but a stern order: "4 is not enough! Increase to 10! With two 88mm cannons... I don't lack anti-aircraft guns, but this A bridge is not to be missed!"

"As ordered! Sir! I'm going to deploy right away!" The officer quickly stood at attention and saluted, and retreated to Zhang Luo to deploy more anti-aircraft guns.

Soon, the towed small-caliber anti-aircraft gun was pulled close by the truck, and the German artillery was working hard to push an 88mm anti-aircraft gun to a more suitable position.

These artillery pieces have to block all the routes approaching the aircraft~www.wuxiaspot.com~ forcing those trying to approach the aircraft to drop bombs in advance.

In fact, shooting down enemy aircraft is only a secondary function of anti-aircraft guns. The real meaning of their existence is to drive the enemy aircraft away from the target and affect the bombing accuracy of the enemy aircraft.

Fighting the enemy is not as important as you think. Protecting important targets is the most important mission.

This is what the anti-aircraft artillery units do, and why Manstein stepped up to deploy them.

Knowing that the bridge was well preserved in German hands, the first reaction of the Soviet Air Force was to destroy the bridge at all costs.

Only by destroying the bridge can the German advance to Vitebsk be effectively stopped. Only by destroying the bridge could it continue to ensure the continued existence of the strongholds sandwiched between the flanks of German Army Group Center.

Once one of these two strongholds is captured by the Germans, there will be no obstacle to the steel torrent of the German armored group advancing towards Moscow——
