Chapter 612 Fall of Paris

At this time, if anyone who knows the Shaoni Railway Station sees it, they will never believe that this is a station he is familiar with. Because at this time, Shawnee Station has changed a lot. After two days of high-intensity work by the German engineering railway soldiers, the railroad tracks of Shaoni Railway Station have changed from three to eight.

Although the extra rails are simple, some even have no gravel under the rails, so the sleepers are added directly on the ground.

In order to improve the accommodation capacity of the Shaoni Railway Station, the German engineering railway soldiers were also exhausted. Now that they’ve done their best, they’ll just have to wait for the train to arrive.

At this time, the train from Aachen also began to arrive.

“Woooooo~”

A train honked its whistle and entered the station, its carriages full of heavily armed soldiers.

“crunch~”

With the sound of the train’s brakes, it means that the train is about to stop.

“Whoa~”

The carriage of the stuffy tanker was opened, and an officer stepped onto the platform.

“Hurry up, get out of the car, hurry up!”

“Get off, get off!”

“Get off everyone!”

Amid the greetings of more than a dozen officers, the soldiers in the entire train set foot on the platform one after another.

After the whole team was called and counted, led by a major battalion commander, they boarded the trucks gathered from all over the place, and then they would go to the Marne River.

And while they were still boarding, another train full of soldiers roared to the train station.

With the arrival of this train, the switchman was busy immediately, because behind it, there were six trains that were less than 500 meters apart and were about to arrive at Shawnee.

This is an officer of the Transportation Department of the General Staff. According to the transportation plan formulated by Shawnee Railway Station, eight trains are organized into a group, which happens to have eight tracks at Shawnee Railway Station.

Controlling in a group can maximize the utilization of the station and allow more trains to arrive at Shawnee as soon as possible.

Of course, this method is not without its shortcomings, the biggest of which is that it is more difficult for the train to return.

However, this difficulty is for the Transportation Department, but its advantages make it impossible for the General Staff to refuse. That is the speed. Under this kind of grouping, the train can reduce the stopping time and just gallop all the way to Shawnee. Of course, this is not without its drawbacks, that is, there will be enough trains parked on a section of the railway after Shawnee.

What a disadvantage could this be compared to the Germans on the front and the whole plan, so train after train came in.

In just one day, Shaoni Railway Station received more than 500 trains. These trains are basically loaded with soldiers, but there are also a small amount of materials such as artillery and ammunition.

Of course, no matter what is loaded, these trains must stop here, unloading personnel, materials and equipment. Among them, the logistics officers and soldiers responsible for loading and unloading are even more tired and paralyzed.

However, no matter whether it is personnel or supplies, or those heavy artillery pieces, the F75 trucks waiting in long queues at the station can be transported to the front of the Marne River as soon as possible.

Since the afternoon, Fiat’s f75 trucks have been shuttled on the road from Shawnee to the Marne, and they have brought in a large number of reinforcements that the First and Second Army are waiting for.

The arrival of these new troops gave the German officers and soldiers who were struggling in the Marne a chance to breathe, and more importantly, it gave hope to the popular.

People who have hope and vitality will naturally behave differently, at least they will work harder and give their lives, and on the battlefield, the defense line will gradually change from precarious to solid.

The changes in the German positions naturally made the attacking French feel different.

Afterwards, the situation of the German army was immediately known to the high-level French army. Of course, in addition to getting the information from the front-line officers and soldiers, the French army also used airships to conduct aerial reconnaissance. And the reconnaissance pilots saw the continuous flow of convoys from Shawnee to the Marne, and naturally let the British and French executives know.

In the face of the fact that the German army has been reinforced, the British and French coalition forces, which still occupy the battlefield advantage, of course need to find a way. After a brief negotiation, the British and French sides decided to join forces and must win the Battle of the Marne.

As for why increase investment?

Quite simply, they did not win a battle on the Western Front, and the consecutive defeats made the morale of the Anglo-French Allied Forces a little low, which was why Xiafei wanted the army to retreat across the Seine in the first place.

However, after the German Marne River revealed flaws, the British and French allied forces thought it was an opportunity, so a war started here.

Now, after the German army received reinforcements at the Battle of the Marne, the situation has changed from the German army facing a rout to a stage of stalemate between the two armies. At this time, it depends on who has the most reinforcements and who can replenish the supplies quickly.

The French army, who knew this, then began to search for troops from all over the country, trying to throw them into the battlefield of the Marne. In addition to this, it is also important to collect transport vehicles, especially trucks of various types. Among these trucks, Fiat’s f75 truck is the favorite transportation tool of the French army.

Although it is only a civilian model and has not been strengthened in various supporting structures, the excellent performance of the f75 truck has conquered the heart of the French Army Logistics Department. However, there are not many f75 trucks in France. According to Fiat’s sales statistics, the sales volume of its f75 trucks in France is only more than 20,000.

At this time, the two armies were fighting in the Marne River, like two red-eyed gamblers, desperately collecting the chips they could find and throwing them into the Marne River gambling table.

On the German side, Xiao Maoqi and other ministries and reserve forces constantly deployed various troops to reinforce the Marne River.

The same is true on the French side, and the troops were thrown into the Marne battlefield by Xiafei without hesitation.

The battle between the two sides on the Marne lasted from November 28 to December 14. In this battle, Shuanghua put all his energy and various weapons and equipment into it. In the end, with the use of the secret weapon poison gas, the German army won the battle.

In order to win the red-eyed little Mo Qi, the only 340 tons of chlorine gas in the German army was put into the battlefield of the Marne. And the French army, who didn’t understand all of this, was completely defenseless in the face of the green-yellow fog floating in.

Many French soldiers began to suffocate when the cloud floated in front of them, gasping for breath in pain, many fell down and suffocated, their eyes, nose and throat felt as if they were burned with acid. Burning pain. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

The use of poisonous gas caused the French army to lose a lot of key positions.

At this time, various rumors about poisonous gas were also spreading inside the French army.

Some people say that this is the mysterious gas that the Germans got by dedicating their souls to the devil, and some people say that this is the Germans using black magic, but no matter which kind of rumors, it is a great blow to the morale of the French army.

In addition, the French army became more and more unfavorable in the Marne River. After some discussions with the British army, the French commander-in-chief Xia Fei reluctantly issued an order to retreat.

The French army gradually retreated towards the Seine River.

In this battle of the Marne, the two sides invested a total of 2.3 million troops. Among them, the British and French lost 459,000 people, while the Germans lost 423,000 people. The total losses of the two sides reached nearly 900,000, which can be described as quite heavy casualties.

So not only the defeated British and French troops, but also the victorious German troops did not continue to chase. They desperately need a break.

However, before the break, the German army still has one victory to take, and that is Paris, the capital of the French army.

At the height of the battle of the Marne, the French army invested all mobilizable forces, of which the defenders of Paris naturally also participated. At this time, you have to let it stick to Paris again, and be careful of these soldiers who have suffered a lot of casualties and shoot you with black guns.

Now Paris is like a ripe fruit, just waiting for the Germans to start.

The French government also announced the move to Bordeaux the day before Xiafei ordered the retreat.

Finally, in the early morning of December 16, the Germans entered Paris.
