Chapter 23 Strategic Adjustment

Gijon and Santander are two major industrial cities in eastern Spain. The most important thing is that most Spanish military-industrial enterprises are in these two cities. If the Spanish government forces lose these two industrial cities, the war will be unsustainable. Even with the support of the Soviet Union and other countries, the Spanish Civil War cannot be supported for a long time.

Major General Speer, the commander-in-chief of the Condor Legion, set his sights on these two relatively weak cities. In order to protect the capital Madrid, the Spanish government forces arranged most of the troops around the capital, while the industrial cities in the east had much less troops, and there was no fear of death in the international column.

Franco had to accept Speer's suggestion in the face of facts. The street battle in Brunette City only lasted for two days, and the rebels began to stop the attack and then covered each other to retreat. The Condor Legion finally began to retreat because of the task of blocking government reinforcements.

Because the rebels besieged Brunette City began to retreat, the capital division of the government army across the Brubridge also retreated slightly, and they were afraid that all the rebels would come up and make dumplings. As soon as the government troops retreated, the nameless hills where Li Mo was located became completely quiet. Li Mo still could not rest, burned the bodies of his dead comrades, then put their ashes on air transport, and then flew back to the country by plane. This was also an explanation to Li Mo for their family.

Three days later, Li Mo returned to the barracks. Li Mo's record was the best among all the companies of the Condor Legion. They used a company's strength to prevent a armored division from crossing the Huota River and annihilated five or six hundred enemies. Whatever this military merit was a huge military merit.

Speler belongs to the German Army, and they have little to do with the commander-in-chief of the Air Force Goring. Besides, the fat man always robs the share of the army. The German Army is not interested in Goring, so Speler still reported Li Mo's military achievements. Speler applied for a first-class Iron Cross Medal for Li Mo. How lucky it is for the recruits who have won such medals just one battle. Of course, the credits of Li Mo's subordinates were also reported after statistics. They can at least get a second-class Iron Cross Medal.

Li Mo's military merits will be awarded to the Army General Command. As for whether Gorene's hand will reach the German Army General Command, Li Mo is unknown. Gorene was already suspicious of Hitler and could not commit suicide by himself. He stretched his hand into the German Army. Besides, the old stubborn army would not allow Gorene to reach in.

The conflict between the rebels and government forces came to an end for the time being. The rebels led by Franco only left some troops to monitor the direction of Madrid, and the main force 100,000 people began to move towards eastern Spain, and the Condor Legion also followed.

The rebels marched eastward and temporarily stayed in the city of Leon between the capital Madrid and the eastern region. After the rebels fought in the streets of Brunette, they also needed to replenish and rest. The Condor Legion also needed to replenish their forces. The government forces did not launch a counterattack immediately because of the retreat of the rebels. The government forces had about 300,000 government troops, which were as powerful as the rebels, but the government forces had to guard most of the country, so the forces were very dispersed. The government forces could only guard the territory west of the capital at this time.

...

"Platform leader, General Speer asked you to go to his office."

A messenger quickly ran to Li Mo to report the situation. At this time, Li Mo was chatting with his remaining sixty subordinates! When Li Mo heard that it was the commander-in-chief looking for him, he quickly stood up and prepared to leave, but suddenly he was stopped by a soldier:

"Platform leader, please help me apply by the way. Just stay in the combat unit! I don't want to be a mate when I go back."

"Platform leader, I don't want to go back to raise horses anymore. Please tell us about it at the commander-in-chief!"

These kids and groom reinforcements sent to Li Mo were more than 60 reinforcements to Li Mo. There are more than 30 people left. They don’t want to be grooms and kids when they go back and stay in the combat troops. Their heroic performance was also remarkable last time in the war in the nameless hills. Although their combat skills were almost the same, their passion and fighting passion were absolutely not lacking at all.

"Don't worry! My brothers, we have all experienced the test of life and death together. Your request is also my request to General Speer. Please wait for my good news!"

After Li Mo said that, he stepped on the tricycle, and then rushed straight to the headquarters of the Condor Legion. General Speer had always wanted to talk to Li Mo and learn about the specific battle situation of the unknown hills. Although Li Mo's battle report had been submitted, Speer still wanted to talk to Li Mo and carefully study Li Mo's successful defense tactics. This was really important to the Condor Legion. The Condor Legion came to Spain to participate in the civil war, which was to accumulate experience.

"Report...come in...hey! Hitler."

The headquarters of the Condor Legion is located in a small building. Speer's office is in the outermost room on the second floor. Li Mo came to Major General Speer's office and knocked on the door. After the sound coming from inside, Li Mo immediately pushed the door gently and gave a standard Nazi ceremony to Speer.

Speer was flipping through the documents at this time. After hearing the knock on the door, he looked up and saw that it was Li Mo. He quickly put down his work and stood up.

"It's Undet!!! Come and sit down, don't be restrained. Today I will talk to you about your successful defensive tactics."

Major General Speer's office is large, and there is also a sofa for guests, right next to the window. After Li Mo sat down, Speer had already brewed a cup of tea for Li Mo:

"Andette heard that you like drinking tea very much. Come to Longjing, which I often buy, to see if it suits your appetite?"

"General, how do you know that I like drinking Longjing?"

Li Mo was very surprised. How could Speer know his habit of drinking tea? You should know that coffee in Germany is the main drink. Not many people drink tea for a long time.

"Two people called me today, one of them was your father. I told him about your heroic battle and he said he was proud of you."

"What about the other person? My general, is it Selena?"

Could it be that the other one is her wife Selena? She asked Major General Speer about the current situation. After all, she is a newlywed wife, so it is natural to care about Li Mo.

"Of course not, but your enemy Gorene. You should guess the reason why Gorene looked for me without me telling me!!! However, Gorene, the Air Marshal, stretched his hand too long, and actually reached the Vulture Legion."
