Chapter 245: "Decapitation Operation"

Hu Yunfeng came out of Hitler's office and did not go to the mercenary camp again. Canaris also helped him get the Polish army's defense map, and Hu Yunfeng began to carefully study the deployment of the Polish army.

Hu Yunfeng found that most of the Polish troops were deployed in the German-Polish border area, and did not use deep layers of defense to create internal emptiness. There is a flat forest area in the west of Warsaw, the capital of Poland, which is an excellent location for raids and airborne.

After studying the deployment of the Polish army, Hu Yunfeng came up with a combat plan that night. Yes, he decided to airborne Warsaw and carry out a "beheading operation" of the Polish government. Of course, the more important thing is to obtain gold and foreign exchange reserves from the Polish Central Bank. No matter how poor a country is, the central bank of that country will not be poor, not only will it not be poor, but will definitely be very rich. For a large amount of wealth, Hu Yunfeng believes that it is worth taking risks.

If Germany does not take risks, Germany's attack on Poland will show the world the first "blitzkrieg" carried out by mechanized tank troops. With the advancement speed of German tanks and armored vehicles, he and the mercenaries can only follow behind and eat dust.

His combat plan was submitted to Hitler that night, and was waiting at the headquarters for research on his plan and the German generals who were attacking Poland were very interested in his plan.

Although most German generals thought that this was a plan formulated by a lunatic. The generals of the German command believed that the Polish army was not bad, it was not practical to let a force airborne deep into the enemy's back to attack the Polish capital. Moreover, no country in the world has implemented large-scale airborne operations, and no one knows what will happen to the airborne. In the end, he laughed at Hu Yunfeng's plan.

But General Canaris, who has understood and read the special operations written by Hu Yunfeng, believes that he believes that Hu Yunfeng's "beheading operation" will definitely shock the world like Germany's "blitzkrieg". Similarly, Hitler, who knows Hu Yunfeng's successful special operations, also supports "beheading operation". He thinks this is a crazy plan, but who in the world can be more crazier than him? He agrees with Hu Yunfeng very much, and is a brave person like him.

Moreover, the elimination of Hu Yunfeng's mercenary has nothing to do with Germany, and Germany will not suffer much loss, and at most it will pay for fuel costs. However, if the "decapitation operation" is successful, it will create two war modes. One is to solve a country's will to resist through "decapitation operation", and the other is to realize the first large-scale airborne combat in human history. So whether it is successful or failed, Hu Yunfeng, as an ally of Germany, can provide the German army with very good experience.

Although Hitler was eventually defeated, no one could deny that he was a genius. When many generals were not optimistic, he supported General Canaris and persuaded the German generals to order Gorene, who was in charge of the Luftwaffe, to cooperate with Hu Yunfeng with all his strength.

Canaris quickly told Hu Yunfeng about Hitler's support and the full cooperation of the Luftwaffe. Hu Yunfeng immediately sent a telegram to the Soviet port, ordering them to air transport the weapons, ammunition, military uniforms and equipment needed by the mercenaries to Germany for two days.

He brought some when he came, but it was used by the people sent to the Soviet port. There were 1,500 German mercenaries without equipment. Hu Yunfeng also thought about asking Germany for an m1 rifle, but Germany's production equipment was the most primitive m1, which was not the m1 that was built into a magazine-loaded bullets based on later generations. In order to obtain supplies on the battlefield in the future when fighting with the Soviet army, the improved m1 secretly produced was changed by Hu Yunfeng to the same caliber as the bullets used by the Soviet army.

Of course, he would definitely ask Germany for equipment, mg34 and mortars, and other weapons. However, he still wanted some big guys, but he could only wait for dawn to find Hitler and Gorene.

At 4:45 am on September 1, 1939, a group of German bombers roared towards Poland, targeting Poland's troops, arsenals, airports, railways, roads and bridges deployed by Poland on the German-Polish border. A few minutes later, the Poles tasted the largest sudden death and destruction in the air for the first time in human history. Tens of thousands of cannons fired at the border, and shells poured into the Polish position like rain. About an hour later, the German ground troops launched all three sides from the north, west and southwest.

At the same time, the German warship "Holstein" anchored outside Danze Port also suddenly fired fire at the Polish base. The Polish army was caught off guard, and 500 front-line aircraft were blown up at the airport before they could take off. Countless artillery, cars and other supplies were destroyed before they could retreat, the transportation hub and command center were destroyed, and the troops were in chaos. The German army took advantage of the situation and led the armored troops and motorized troops, and soon broke through the Polish defense line from several major areas.

At 10 a.m. that day, Hitler excitedly announced to Congress that the Imperial team had attacked Poland and Germany entered a state of war. Hu Yunfeng, who had only slept for two hours in the night, came to see Hitler and expressed his congratulations, and handed over his modified airborne plan to Hitler.

Seeing that Hu Yunfeng was going to airdrop tanks with an airplane, Hitler was convinced that Hu Yunfeng was crazy. He handed Hu Yunfeng's plan to the German general sitting there, saying: "My friend, please throw away your fantasy. Please ask all the experts in the world if they can airdrop tanks onto the ground with parachutes without destroying them. Are you planning to use people to drive the tanks out of the plane, or use people to push the tanks out of the plane."

"Haha..." Several German leaders in Hitler's office laughed at Hu Yunfeng loudly.

"Young man, I admire you very much and only support you in carrying out a 'beheading operation' to the Polish government, but I cannot support you in your airdrop tank plan." Hitler waved to the generals who mocked Hu Yunfeng, signaling them to stop mocking Hu Yunfeng.

However, last night, Gorene, who thought Hu Yunfeng was a lunatic, looked carefully without saying a word with the new plan. Hu Yunfeng was planning to airdrop the No. 1 tank with the German Junker 52/3mk transport aircraft. The No. 1 tank weighs 5,000 kilograms, while the 52k military transport aircraft can carry a load of 5,300 kilograms, which can be loaded with a No. 1 tank. Hu Yunfeng explained in detail how to change the inside of the aircraft into a slide for tank airdrop.

Hitler supported Hu Yunfeng's "beheading plan". Gorin thought to himself why not try it according to his method? Gorin put down his plan and said, "First of the People's Republic of China, I think we can modify several transport planes to try."

Hitler was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are in charge of the Air Force. Since you want to try it, I will hand over our friends to you."

The reason Hu Yunfeng wanted to modify the plan was that he read Germany's analysis of the Polish army last night. The Polish army was worse than Japan, and his combat thinking was not only at the level of World War I, but he never paid attention to tanks and armored vehicles. Hu Yunfeng remembers historical records that when Germany attacked Poland, the Polish cavalry actually used a saber to cut German tanks. Therefore, although the German No. 1 tank was not considered a tank, but only had two machine gun armored vehicles, it was enough to deal with the Polish army. He decided to try airdrop No. 1 tank. If it succeeded, it would be a strong firepower support for the mercenaries.

Hitler and Goring both supported him, so Hu Yunfeng didn't have to worry. His combat plan was clearly written. The modification was done by German technical experts. He didn't have much time left, so he returned to the training camp to hurry up and conduct the final drill of the mercenaries.

Hu Yunfeng had 2,750 mercenaries. He organized the mercenaries into a regiment, while the German parachute transport aircraft could only carry up to 25 fully armed personnel, which means that Gorene had to use more than 100 transport aircraft. If a large-scale airdrop was used, it would be discovered by the Polish army whenever the parachute was parachute.

So Hu Yunfeng discussed with Gorene. In order to hide during the operation, the plane took off in five batches, with each batch being 20 minutes apart. Of course, Hu Yunfeng was preparing to lead the special forces team and a few personnel from the German special forces to airborne first and choose the airborne location.

On the afternoon of September 2, the equipment and weapons and ammunition transported from the Soviet port arrived in Berlin. Hu Yunfeng quickly sent his military uniform and guns and ammunition to make the mercenaries familiar with the guns.

It has to be admitted that Germany's scientific and technological strength and industrial production capacity were strong at this time. On September 5, it was reported from Goringa that five transport aircraft were modified and tested airdrops with 6 No. 1 tanks. Five were damaged for the first time, with a success rate of only 10%. However, the successful airdrop of one was greatly encouraged the confidence of German experts. They quickly found out the reasons for the failure of the other five airdrops and installed air cushions under the No. 1 tank according to Hu Yunfeng's suggestion. All the subsequent dozens of test airdrops were successful.

The news reported to Hitler, which surprised Hitler a lot, but he was very happy and firmly supported Hu Yunfeng in carrying out the "decapitation operation". He personally ordered the mg34, mortar and walkie-talkie, to be equipped to the mercenaries immediately.

The No. 1 tank was successfully airdropped, and the German army was getting closer and closer to Warsaw. The four divisions commanded by Guderian actually killed only 150 people in battle and injured 700 people. Hu Yunfeng couldn't sit still. Poland was just a pig waiting to be slaughtered. If he didn't rush to eat pork, he would probably not even get involved in the pork in the end.

On the day when the No. 1 tank airdrop was successful, Hu Yunfeng decided to take the special forces team and 20 German special forces teams led by Rudol in two planes to find airborne grounds for the mercenaries and reconnaissance the defense situation in Warsaw.

On the first day, most of Poland's combat aircraft were destroyed on the ground by the Luftwaffe. Since then, Poland's sky can no longer see Polish fighter jets. The sky of Poland already belongs to the Germans. Even Poland's anti-aircraft artillery fire was destroyed by German bombers and artillery fire on September 1.

Two Junker 52/3m g4ef parachute aircraft took off at 4 a.m. on September 6 and flew towards the western part of Warsaw without any worries. Hu Yunfeng sat on the plane and looked at the land of Poland. At this time, he had great confidence in the success of the airborne.

At 5:42 in the morning, two planes hovered at a low altitude in the western part of Warsaw, the capital of Poland. Hu Yunfeng saw an open area outside the forest and immediately decided to airborne it. So the two planes raised up again. Not long after, Hu Yunfeng and the special forces members, as well as Lin Xinxin and Jibchuhe jumped out of the plane.
