The command of the Southern Army Group, General Longdestedt, commander of the Southern Army Group, looked at the battle report in his hand and said: "The paratroopers actually killed a Polish infantry regiment. It seems that they are still somewhat combat-ready in addition to being inspected and playing parachuting games."

Standing to the right of Longdstedt was Lieutenant General Manstein, the chief of staff of the Southern Army Group. Manstein pointed to the map and said: "After they annihilated the Polish 40th Infantry Regiment, the right wing of the Polish 14th Infantry Division has been completely exposed to them. Should we order them to attack the right wing of the 14th Infantry Division, which can alleviate the pressure of the 30th Infantry Division. After all, they have suffered a lot in the Polish counterattack and lacked heavy weapons. The war is very tight now."

"Okay, you go and arrange it." Longdsted said without raising his head at the map.

"I think this attack by the Poles is an opportunity for us. With the city of Kutno as the center, the Poles' Poznan Army and the remnants of the Modlin Army are entrenched here. If we seize this opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop, no one can stop us on the way to Warsaw," said Longdsted.

"I think so too. If they just repel them, they may escape to Warsaw. The more than 100,000 defenders in Warsaw City will cause great annoyance to the next siege." Manstein nodded and said.

"Order." Longdestedt made a quick judgment, "The 10th Army and the 14th Army each transferred one army to the Eighth Army. On the premise of defending the existing positions, the 8th Army sent troops to attack and advance in the northeast direction, cutting off the Poles' retreat route to Warsaw. In addition, contact the Northern Army Group and tell them our intentions and let them send troops south to cooperate with the 8th Army to complete the encirclement mission."

Manstein quickly finished the record and handed it over to Longdstedt to confirm the signature, and then issued an order via radio.

······

To the east of Valang Village, Lieutenant Randolph and his artillerymen were wiping the artillery. Chen Dao sat on the stone beside him fiddled with his new toy, an MP38 submachine gun, which Chen Dao picked up from a dead paratrooper.

They picked up together with magazine bags and three magazines filled with bullets, plus one magazine on the submachine gun, and Chen Dao had a total of four magazines on his hand.

Under the guidance of a paratrooper, Chen Dao quickly became familiar with the usage of MP38. With this submachine gun, Chen Daoxin said that this bandit could finally stop using the old Mauser rifle and the useless pistol. He died young and one step further away from me.

Looking at the Polish prisoners sitting all over the place in the south of the village, Chen Dao really hoped that several of these prisoners would lead the prisoners to rebel, so that he could openly test the power of this MP38.

Unfortunately, things went against my wishes. Under the deterrence of the MG34 machine gun, more than a thousand waves of prisoners of war were sitting on the ground, one by one, just like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Carrying the submachine gun to his back, Chen Dao lit a cigarette, thinking that he would learn the strategy of using troops from Studentdo when he had time. In this battle of Valen Village, Studentit sent the third battalion as a reserve team to use the night as cover to bypass Valen Village, and intersect the north of Valen Village to cut off the Polish army's retreat route. After dawn, the three paratrooper battalions attacked at the same time from the southwest, southeast and north, and annihilated 3,124 people below Colonel Kuba, the 40th Infantry Regiment of the Polish Army, and the paratroopers only paid the price of 211 being killed and 311 being injured. The overall loss ratio of both sides was 1 to 6, which can be said to be a big victory.

Humility makes people progress, pride makes people fall behind. In order to gain more confidence in survival in the years of war, Chen Dao decided to learn from Student now.

Unexpectedly, Student found Chen Dao first and gave a personal order to Chen Dao.

"What? Do I want me to stay and visit the prisoners of war?" Chen Dao said in surprise.

"Major Rosen, the new mission given to us by the Southern Army Group is to attack the flanks of the 14th Infantry Division in Poland. I decided to take the first battalion, the third battalion and the artillerymen of Lieutenant Randolph, and you and the second battalion stay to defend the village of Valen while guarding the prisoners of war." Student explained.

"Okay." Chen Dao hesitated for a moment and finally decided to stay.

After several battles, Chen Dao summarized a rule: Anyone who participates in a battle must be bombarded. Fortunately, there were no heavy artillery in the 40th Infantry Regiment, otherwise he would have died young and would not have survived until now.

Now Student is going to attack the 14th Infantry Division. According to the information learned from interrogating the Polish prisoners of war, the 14th Infantry Division has a 105mm and 155mm caliber artillery. If he follows him, he will definitely be hit by a shot in the past two days. By then, he will die young and will not be a dream.

"You must be careful when you stay here. The cavalry unit behind the 40th Infantry Regiment is missing. I don't know when they will appear, nor where they will appear. Maybe they will appear here tomorrow morning." Student said.

"I will pay attention to protecting myself." Chen Dao said disapprovingly.

"I advise you to take a plane and leave here. Marshal Goreen just sent another telegram to urge you to return home." Student said.

"I understand, when will you set off?" Chen Dao took the initiative to change the topic.

"Now the reconnaissance plane is reconnaissance of the 14th Infantry Division of Poland. I have to wait until the exact information before deciding the departure time."

The two discussed for a while and then parted ways. At this time, a paratrooper correspondent suddenly found Chen Dao and said that Marshal Gorene wanted to talk to him.

Chen Daogang said hello to Gorein, and Gorein asked directly: "Heinz, when will you go back to Berlin?"

"I will go back after capturing Warsaw, it won't be long." Chen Dao said.

"I order you to go back to Berlin at the latest tomorrow morning." Gorene said impatiently.

"Oh, how are Ada doing recently? After leaving me, Ada may not even be able to eat. Tell Ada to listen to the radio more. When will she hear on the radio that we have occupied Warsaw, his dear Uncle Heinz will return to him." Chen Dao said.

Golin couldn't hear that Chen Dao was changing the subject. He ordered Chen Dao to leave for Berlin early tomorrow morning at the latest. Chen Dao was talking nonsense, but he didn't answer directly. Golin finally couldn't stand it and shouted, "You'd better never come back." After that, he threw away the microphone.

Chen Dao left the radio and found Major Schubert, the second battalion commander. The two discussed and decided to send someone to the back to send the hindrance prisoners first. This task was handed over to the more than 200 rescued German prisoners. They had been all over the entire company and were fully armed with the captured Polish weapons.

While it was still dark, the Independent Company carried the vast team of prisoners to the south, and they also took away some seriously injured people who could be moved.
