Battle of Poland Danzig

Due to various reasons, the largest caliber artillery of the German Army is only a 155mm caliber howitzer, while the smallest caliber of the German naval artillery that poured artillery into Danzig is 203mm, and the largest are Bismarck and Tirpitz. There are a total of eighteen 406mm guns on it.

The killing range of the 155mm caliber artillery is as large as a football field. Just imagine the horror of the 203mm artillery? Think again about the 380mm in the Admiral Scheer class? Think 406mm again?

Therefore, if the Polish army who struggled against the German army is a "strong warrior", then the defender of the German navy in Danzig can be said to be a "unfortunate martyr".

Under the continuous bombardment of a total of 36 203mm guns, 18 380mm guns, and 18 406mm guns in the German fleet for half an hour, the coast of Danzig, where the fortresses were originally spread, is now only a ruin.

But life is always tenacious. Under the saturation bombardment of this intensity, many "unfortunate martyrs" were not allowed to become martyrs. They climbed out of the ruins in dismay, set up machine guns and rifles, and prepared to give them to Germany. Login forces a surprise.

However, they did not expect that the soul of the German Führer came from a country with a severe "fear of insufficient firepower", so Germany in this lifetime also suffered from this strange disease.

After the German naval battleships and cruisers showed their muscles, it was time for the "show time" of the German naval aviation.

The 200 bombers that took off from the three aircraft carriers, Graf Zeppelin, Deutsche, and Bavaria, arrived on the heads of the "martyrs" who were not yet "martyrs" after the shelling.

The fleet of aircraft that covered the sky completely made the Polish coastal defense troops, who were planning to fight to the end, completely desperate. They dropped their guns and ran to the city behind them desperately, ignoring the existence of the supervising team.

The supervising team was also conscientiously performing their duties, blocking the fleeing Polish army, but the supervising team did not fire a single shot at the rout of the coastal defense troops.

Because the supervisors were also running for their lives, the reason why they blocked in front of the Polish army was not intentional, because their position was originally behind the coast guard, and when they turned to flee, their position was also blocked by the routed army. in front of you.

Looking at the fleeing Polish Coast Guard, the German pilots were not polite. They drove their planes into the crowd and swooped down one after another, dropping powerful bombs, which caused more damage to the Coast Guard than those artillery shells. be big.

After 200 dive bombers accurately dropped more than 200 tons of aerial bombs, there were only less than 1,000 of the tens of thousands of coastal defense forces that could move. The designation of the Polish coastal defense forces completely disappeared in the long river of history.

"Order the 1st Marine Division to land and liberate our Danzig!" Rader looked at the locust-like bomber swarm landing in the sky, and was finally willing to let the marines land.

Following Raidl's order, landing ships, either regular or converted from civilian ships, approached the Port of Danzig, and members of the 1st Marine Division jumped from the ship to the land leisurely, with great interest Looking at the group of fortresses full of fire and ruins, there was a lot of discussion.

It's as if they didn't come to fight, but to travel.

"Hurry up! Team up! Team up!" Fortunately, the officers still knew where their responsibilities were, and they urged the soldiers under them loudly, "What's so good about a fire and a pile of gravel and cement? Hurry up! The longer you hang on here, the better prepared the Poles in Danzig will be! I guess you don't want to make this 'scenery' the last 'attraction' you visit in your life?"

"Report sir! I don't want to die here!" a young soldier shouted, "If I can, I want to see Paris and see the French girl die!"

"Hahaha!" The rest of the soldiers burst into laughter after hearing the young soldier's words.

"What are you laughing at?!" The officer said "rebuke", but he also rebuked with a smile, "This guy has a very good idea and is very pursuing! Hey, what's your name?"

"Report...report sir!" The soldier was a little embarrassed to see so many people laughing at him. He scratched his head and said, "My name is Timothy Zmailman!"

"Timotheus? Hehe." The officer smiled and patted the soldier's shoulder and said, "Then tell me, do you fear God?" ("Timotheus" means "God-fearing person")

"No, I don't fear God, I only admire the Führer!" Timo Tois said proudly, "Of course, if the Führer is really sent by God, then I also respect God!"

"Very good!" The officer rubbed the soldier's head in admiration, "What you said is great! Everyone should learn from you!"

"For the Führer! For Germany!" Some of the assembled soldiers shouted.

"For the Führer! For Germany!" The other soldiers immediately chimed in, and the scene was suddenly filled with tsunamis.

The Germans cheered here, but the Polish side felt uncomfortable.

Warsaw, Poland, Polish Wartime Headquarters.

At this moment, the Polish President Mosicicki is throwing a tantrum at a vote of generals under his command.

"Damn it! Can any of you explain to me why the Germans can push 80 kilometers in just one day, like our hinterland?!" Mosicicki shouted, "Did the Polish people keep a herd of pigs? ?! Even hundreds of thousands of pigs! I guess enough for the Germans to catch them for a week?!"

"Mr. President!" A general wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "It's not that our army has no fighting spirit. It's just that the German mechanized troops are too powerful! Our cavalry troops are completely unable to fight back on the western plains!"

"I don't need to listen to the explanation!" Mosichicki patted the table hard, "What I want is a specific defense plan! What I want is that our army can stabilize the front! What I want is enough time, Let Britain and France join this damn war smoothly!"

"We do have a plan, but..." The general wiped his sweat again and glanced at the other officers.

The other officers nodded silently when they saw the general's stealing look.

"But what?! Hesitant! Can you show the courage that a Polish soldier should have?!" Mosicicki shouted.

Hearing the words, the general gritted his teeth, and explained their plans after discussing the plan: "We have lost the Warta River defense line, so we plan to completely abandon the western part of Poznan Province, shrink the troops to the eastern part of Poznan Province, and rely on the Pros River to rebuild. Build a central line of defense!"

"You asked me to give up this more than 100 kilometers of land?!" Mosichicki's eyes widened, and he looked at his general in disbelief.

"Mr. President, this is the only feasible way at the moment!" Another general couldn't stand it anymore, stood up and said, "We absolutely cannot defend the western part of Poznan Province. It's just a plain, and we can't stop the German armor on the plain!"
