Jagged Germany

Chapter 1400: ready to fight back

??On the other side of the Baofer Line, the division headquarters of the German 226th Infantry Division. The division commander, Major General Friedley, and the chief of staff, Brigadier General Georg, slept very soundly last night. Although they have already learned the news of the island navy's invasion, they have great confidence in the German navy. They believed that the German navy would definitely defeat the Japanese navy.

??When Major General Friedley arrived at the division headquarters, Brigadier General Georg had already arrived one step ahead.

?? "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, is there any good news?" As soon as Major General Friedley entered the division headquarters, he saw a smile on Brigadier General Georg's face.

"General, there is a telegram from the navy. The islanders' fleet was severely damaged by our fleet last night. They sank three of the islanders' capital ships and severely damaged another one. Now, the navy is dispatching ships The carrier aircraft launched further strikes against the navy of the island country. The results of the navy's battle must be able to be further expanded." Brigadier General Georg said.

?? "Oh? The Navy has achieved such great results?" Rear Admiral Friedley was a little surprised.

??Although the German navy resisted the attack of the island navy, he fully believed in this. However, he did not expect that the German Navy could achieve such a great victory.

?? "General, here is the battle report." Brigadier General Georg handed the telegram to Major General Friedley.

?? Major General Friedley also laughed after reading the telegram. He is also very satisfied with the navy's victory.

"It seems that after the navy's victory, our threat from the sea has been completely eliminated. For a long time, the navy of the island country will no longer be able to pose a threat to us. Next, we can let the people of the island nation In front of our defense line, we have paid a greater price." Major General Friedley said with a smile.

"General, I'm afraid we can do more than that. We have caused great losses to the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army before. Now, the Navy has won again. Then, the time for us to counterattack the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, It also seems to have matured. If there is fire support from the naval fleet, then we can definitely mobilize part of our forces to launch a counterattack against the islanders. After we have defeated the 18th Front Army of the Island Army, we must defeat the remaining two fronts of the Island Army. It is much easier in comparison," Brigadier General Georg said.

??Major General Friedley nodded again and again: "Yes, now is indeed a good opportunity to counterattack. However, whether to launch a counterattack or not is up to the Commander."

??In fact, in Brunei City, the German 23rd Army Command. Commander Lieutenant General William Adam, Chief of Staff Major General Erwin Willow and 23rd Armored Division Commander Major General Paul are discussing the current battle situation.

"The navy did a very good job last night, causing the islanders to pay heavy losses at a small price. Next, our navy will continue to have an advantage in the Pacific Ocean. This is also very helpful for our next actions .” Lieutenant General William Adam smiled.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander. The navy's attack is still going on, and they are dispatching a large number of carrier-based aircraft to launch a new attack on the navy of the island country. By then, their results should increase further. Our threat will be completely eliminated." Major General Erwin Vilo also said with a smile.

??The navy was able to win so cleanly, which was also a great help to the 23rd Army of the German Army. It is even very beneficial to the German Army in Southeast Asia and Australia. With the support of the navy, their advantage in this war is even more obvious.

"Your Excellency, Commander, since the Navy has won the victory, can we consider taking action against the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army? There are not many troops left in the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army. If we can use the 23rd Armored Division and the 221st Mechanized If the Infantry Division and the 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division launch a counterattack as the main force, there will be no problem in defeating them in one fell swoop. After we have defeated the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, we can turn around and deal with the 14th Front Army and the Japanese Army. The 7th Front Army. In this way, we will be able to occupy a greater advantage in this war." Major General Paul, the commander of the 23rd Armored Division, said. His eyes were full of eagerness to try. Before, the 23rd Army took the initiative to launch an offensive and wiped out the Lanyin Front Army of the island country army in one fell swoop, which made the generals under the 23rd Army very satisfied. They all hope that they can win more victories in the next battle.

"Your Excellency, Commander, this can be considered. The 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army has been severely damaged in previous battles. If we can request the navy to dispatch and bombard the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, we will defeat them more easily. !” Major General Erwin Willow also said.

?? Lieutenant General William Adam nodded. This is indeed a very good idea.

"With the 23rd Armored Division, the 221st Mechanized Infantry Division and the 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division as the main force, they attacked the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army. With a strong armored force, it is indeed very important to tear apart the Japanese and their defenses. Easy. In addition, the navy has already won the victory, and we can get the fire support of the navy. In this case, the possibility of our victory is undoubtedly greater." Lieutenant General William Adam said.

?? "Your Excellency, Commander, we must prepare as soon as possible, and then launch as soon as possible. Once the islanders feel the danger and take the initiative to retreat, then we will miss the opportunity." Major General Erwin Vilo said.

"Okay, let's do it like this. 23rd Armored Division, 221st Mechanized Infantry Division, 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division, move towards Beaufort. Navy side, send them a telegram requesting support." William Adam The lieutenant general ordered.

?? "Yes, Your Excellency, Commander." Both Major General Erwin Willow and Major General Paul replied.

?? "If all goes well, then launch a counterattack tomorrow morning. This time, we will eliminate the 18th Army of the Island Army in one fell swoop." Lieutenant General William Adam ordered.

?? "Yes, Your Excellency Commander."

??After Lieutenant General William Adam gave the order, the 23rd Armored Division, the 221st Mechanized Infantry Division and the 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division, which were the absolute main force of the German 23rd Army, immediately left the station and marched towards the Beaufort front. As for the 23rd Heavy Artillery Brigade, it will continue to stay on the Crocker Hill front. After receiving the fire support of the navy, the German army has gained an absolute advantage in terms of artillery.
