new offensive

In less than twenty minutes, a large group of British officers were seen walking over, and the one at the front was a British major general.

"Captain Ernst, I am Major General Mollington, commander of the 42nd East Reims Division of the British Empire." The British major general came to Wang Weiyi with a solemn expression.

"Mr. General, Captain Ernst Brahm of the 16th German Bavarian Infantry Regiment Supplementary Battalion!"

When the name sounded again, the British generals couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning, and their reaction was exactly the same as theirs.

"The Devil of the Somme", they finally stood face to face with the Devil of the Somme.

Major General Mollington seemed to have never heard of this name: "No matter what your position is, regarding your kindness and fearless performance, without your integrity and compassion, there would be many more broken families. Please allow me. On behalf of all the officers and men of the British Empire's 42nd East Reims Division, I would like to express to you our most sincere thanks and gratitude."

After speaking, he raised his hand: "Captain Ernst Brahm, with integrity, fearlessness, and compassion, you will be a friend of the British Empire when the war is over!"

"Captain Ernst Brahm, integrity, fearlessness, compassion." The officers of the 42nd East Reims Division shouted in unison.

From this moment on, Ernst Brahm, who once brought great trauma to the British, has gained the respect of the British.

The thinking of officers from these European countries is completely different from that of Easterners like Wang Weiyi. On the battlefield, they would fight to the death with red eyes, but once they met outside the battlefield, they would even sit down and chat for a while over a cup of coffee or tea.

Wang Weiyi was driven by instinct to do such a thing, but he never thought about the impact it would have on the future...

The British's view of the "Devil of the Somme" has completely changed. They must admit that the opponent will still be a very difficult and even hated opponent on the battlefield, but at this moment, they only respect him.

Major General Mollington even invited Wang Weiyi to sit in his military camp for a while and taste the tea just sent from London, but Wang Weiyi declined the request with a smile.

"In that case, I think we can only meet again after the war is over." General Mollington said with a little regret: "Captain, I hope you can live to that moment. If you are unfortunately captured, please be sure to tell the British army You are a friend of the 42nd East Lance Division."

"I will, general, but I don't want to become a prisoner." Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "See you on the battlefield, general."

"See you on the battlefield." Monlington nodded solemnly: "The 42nd East Reims Division will take its greatest honor to defeat and capture Captain Ernst Brahm!"

This is the greatest way to respect someone you respect!

"I will also try my best to defeat your 42nd East Lance Division." Wang Weiyi said equally loudly: "Goodbye, general."

"Goodbye, Captain."

The British officers and soldiers of the 42nd East Reims Division watched their respectable enemy leave their sight.

In fact, the British at this time could have forcibly detained Ernst Brahm or even killed him, but they would never do so. Because of this, they were ridiculed and their reputation was completely lost. The morale of the entire army may even be weakened.

Guderian, who had been following Wang Weiyi, was the most excited. He had never thought that a German military officer could gain so much respect from his enemies.

Only Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm could have done this...

The capture of the D9 position set off a new wave of German counterattacks. The counterattack that started on the 19th did not stop until the 20th. The German army once again tenaciously pushed the compressed defense forward another three kilometers.

This is an amazing achievement!

After the Battle of the Somme broke out, the Allied forces worked hard and suffered countless casualties before they captured some German positions. However, the German army only counterattacked and regained the position from the British.

Now, a superstitious saying is spreading among the German army:

Only the presence of Captain Ernst Brahm on the battlefield was the guarantee of German victory.

His outstanding performance in this counterattack removed the word "agent" from Wang Weiyi's head. He is now a veritable commander of the supplementary battalion. And he is only one step away from the most difficult to obtain the rank of major.

Encouraged by this victory, the German General Staff began to plan a new offensive to win the Battle of the Somme.

Both sides had been exhausted before, and no one could continue to expand the results. However, with the victory of the counterattack on October 19, the morale of the German army was rekindled.

The German army planned to invest all of the First and Second Armies and part of the Fifth Army, with Crown Prince William August as the honorary commander-in-chief and General von Bello as the commander-in-chief, to launch an all-out attack on the Allied positions centered on Baarle.

In order to achieve victory in this autumn offensive, the German army concentrated the powerful force of 19 infantry divisions, 1182 artillery pieces, and 226 aircraft.

Wang Weiyi's supplementary camp is only a small part of it.

"The attack will not be successful." Xiaoling is not optimistic about the German autumn offensive at all: "It will soon rain continuously, the roads will be muddy, and all battles will become extremely difficult. It will not last long. The attack will cease, and the Battle of the Somme will come to an end."

Wang Weiyi actually knew this result. But what can be done? He is just a small battalion commander, can he still influence the decision-making of the high command?

"Rambler, a new mission has arrived..." Xiao Ling's words suddenly interrupted Wang Weiyi's thoughts: "The military base shows that you have a new mission. The second phase of the 'Soarer Mission', in Som A new feat was achieved in the Battle of the River..."

"What's the specifics?" Wang Weiyi asked absently.

"There are no specific instructions." Xiao Ling's words were also a little helpless: "I just want you to obtain a new meritorious service, but there is no new instruction on how big the meritorious service is this time... And the strange thing is that the self-transformation of the base Upgrades have been stopped for some time."

Wang Weiyi is no longer too lazy to care about the Ziguang military base.

Although this mysterious and weird military base gave me a lot of help, it also brought me a lot of trouble.

God knows when next time, he will come up with a new problem and then inexplicably ask himself to complete it.
