My Italian: Chapter 612 fall of paris

At this time, the Shawnee Railway Station, if anyone who knew it saw it, would never believe that it was a station he was familiar with. Because Shawnee Station had changed a lot at this time. After two days of intensive work by the German Engineering Railway Corps, the number of rails at Shawnee Station changed from three to eight.

Although the extra rails are simple, some rails don't even have gravel under them, so sleepers are added and laid directly on the ground.

In order to increase the capacity of the Shawnee Railway Station, the German engineering railway soldiers were exhausted and paralyzed. Now that they have reached their limit, they just have to wait for the train to arrive.

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

"Woo woo woo~"

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

"Crunch~"

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

"Wow~"

The compartment of the tank truck was opened, and an officer stepped onto the platform.

"Quick, get out of the car, hurry up!"

"Get out of the car, everyone get out of the car!"

"Everyone get out of the car!"

Amidst the greetings of more than a dozen officers, the soldiers in the entire train carriage stepped onto the platform one after another.

After the whole team rolled their names and counted the number of people, under the leadership of a major battalion commander, they boarded the trucks gathered from all over the place, and then they will go to the Marne River.

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

With the arrival of this train, the switchman got busy immediately, because behind, there were six more trains, less than 500 meters apart, that were about to arrive in Shawnee.

This is an officer of the Transportation Department of the General Staff, specially according to the transportation plan formulated by the Shawnee Railway Station, with eight trains as a formation, which happens to have eight tracks in the Shawnee Railway Station.

Controlled by a marshalling unit, it can maximize the satisfaction of using the station, so that more trains can arrive at Shawnee as soon as possible.

Of course, this method is not without disadvantages, and the biggest disadvantage is that it is more difficult for the train to return.

However, this difficulty is for the Transport Department, but its advantages make it impossible for the General Staff to refuse. That is, the speed is fast. Under this arrangement, the train can shorten the stop time and just gallop all the way to Shawnee. Of course, this is not without disadvantages, that is, there will be enough trains on the section of the railway after Shawnee.

This can be regarded as a shortcoming. Compared with the German army on the front line and the whole plan, it is nothing, so the trains entered the station one after another.

In just one day, Shawnee Railway Station received more than 500 trains. Most of these trains were loaded with soldiers, but there were also a small number of artillery and ammunition and other supplies.

Of course, no matter what is loaded, these trains will stop here to unload personnel, materials and equipment. Among them, the logistics officers and soldiers responsible for loading and unloading were even more exhausted.

However, no matter whether it is personnel or materials, or those heavy artillery, the f75 trucks waiting in a long queue at the station can transport them to the front line of the Marne River as soon as possible.

Since the afternoon, Fiat's F75 trucks have been shuttling on the road from Shawnee to the Marne, and they have brought a large number of reinforcements from the First and Second Army.

The arrival of this batch of fresh troops gave the German officers and soldiers who were struggling in the Marne River a chance to breathe, and more importantly, this gave hope to the favorites.

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

The change in the position of the German army naturally made the attacking French army feel different.

The situation of the German army was immediately learned by the top French army. Of course, in addition to getting the situation from the frontline officers and soldiers, the French army also used airships and aircraft for aerial reconnaissance. The reconnaissance pilots saw the continuous flow of convoys from Shawnee to the Marne, and naturally let the British and French high-level officials know.

Faced with the situation that the German army has been reinforced, the British and French allied forces, which still have the advantage on the battlefield, of course need to find a way. After a brief discussion, Britain and France decided to join in the investment of troops and must win the Battle of the Marne.

As for why increase investment?

Quite simply, they did not win a single battle on the Western Front, and the successive defeats made the morale of the officers and soldiers of the British and French allied forces somewhat low.

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

Now that the German army has been reinforced in the Battle of the Marne, the situation has changed from the German army's defeat to the stage of a stalemate between the two armies. At this time, it depends on who has more reinforcements and whose supplies are replenished faster.

Knowing this well, the French army then began to search for troops from various places, trying to invest in the Marne River battlefield. In addition, it is also important to collect transport vehicles, especially various types of trucks. Among these trucks, Fiat's f75 truck is the favorite means of transport for 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 hearts 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 battle between the two armies on the Marne River was like two red-eyed gamblers, desperately collecting the chips they could find and throwing them into the gambling table of the Marne River.

On the German side, the other ministries and reserve forces of Little Maoqi continued to deploy various forces to reinforce the Marne River.

The same is true for the French army, and each unit was thrown into the Marne River battlefield by Xia Fei without hesitation.

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

In order to win the red-eyed little Maoqi, all the German army's only 340 tons of chlorine gas were thrown into the Marne River battlefield. The French army, who didn't understand all this at all, was completely defenseless in the face of the green-yellow fog floating in.

Many French soldiers began to suffocate and gasp in agony as this cloud came before them, and many fell down, smothered, their eyes, noses, and throats feeling as if they were being burned by acid. Burn pain.

The use of poisonous gas caused the loss of a large part of the key positions of the French army.

At this time, various rumors about the poisonous gas also became more and more intense among the French army.

Some people say that this is the mysterious gas obtained by the Germans dedicating their souls to the devil, while others say that the Germans used black magic, but no matter what kind of rumors, it will be 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 commander-in-chief of the French army, Joffre, reluctantly issued an order to retreat.

The French army gradually withdrew to the line of the Seine River.

In this battle of the Marne, the total force invested by the two sides was as high as 2.3 million. Among them, the British and French side lost 459,000 people, while the German army lost 423,000 people. The total loss of the two sides was as high as nearly 900,000, which can be described as quite heavy casualties.

So not only the failed British and French armies~www.mtlnovel.com~ Even the victorious German army did not continue to chase. They urgently need a rest.

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

At the height of the Battle of the Marne, the French army invested all its mobilizable forces, and the Paris defenders naturally participated in it. At this time, you have to let him stick to Paris again, and be careful that these soldiers with heavy casualties will shoot you black.

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

The French government also announced that it would move to Bordeaux the day before Joffre ordered the retreat.

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