s: The blocked word in the previous chapter was "glider".
Even "glider" was blocked, and I was drunk.
At 11:21 on August 17, 1939, AD 2780, history will always remember this moment because it was the moment when German planes dropped the first new bomb on the Maginot Line, and it is also recognized as the second time The moment when the world war officially breaks out.
Later, everyone recognized that it was this bomb that completely ignited the fuse of World War II.
As for whether the German attack was an undeclared war, it is actually controversial, because two days before the war began, that is, on August 15, the Germans sent a document similar to an ultimatum to Britain and France. country.
Why do we say similar?
Because the tone of this document is vague and not very intense.
It does not clearly say, "If you don't agree, I will beat you."
The document requires the two countries to immediately return Nigeria to Germany and the Libyan colony to Italy, and requires the other party to agree within 48 hours, otherwise they will bear the consequences.
It is naturally impossible for Britain and France to agree to such a ridiculous request.
"Who do you think you are?
You have a handsome mustache.
I'm not scared."
The British and French bosses probably thought this way.
This is not to say that the two countries really don't care about it at all.
The main reason is that for more than a year, the two sides have been talking constantly, and there are many more harsh words than this.
Anyway, talking is free.
In the beginning, whenever the other party said something harsh, I would still be nervous for a while, but seeing that the other party kept talking harshly, everyone relaxed.
This is like "crying wolf", no one can stand being nervous all the time.
But no one expected that this time the Germans stopped talking and were serious.
Moreover, the Germans started their attack from the front of the Maginot Line, where everyone least expected it, catching Britain and France by surprise.
Before this, the Allies had many plans.
They speculated on many directions of Germany's attack, and the direction of the Maginot Line was precisely the least likely.
According to the words of French Marshal Pétain, it is: Unless the German General Staff is all drunk, it is absolutely impossible to attack the front of the Maginot Line.
They believe that the most likely place for Germany to launch an attack should be Libya.
This is indeed the case.
If Germany fails to obtain cloud explosive bombs from China this time, it will definitely not choose to break through the Maginot Line frontally.
According to the German plan, the attack will also start from Libya.
After all, this is not the British and French In the homeland, the investment in troops and defense is very small.
But with cloud burst bombs, it's different.
In the face of the cloud burst effect, any traditional defenses are defenseless.
It’s not that the fortifications themselves can’t stand it, but the people inside can’t.
The cloud explosion effect will consume a large amount of oxygen within the explosion range.
The more closed the fortification is, the better the effect will be.
Once the oxygen is gone, the people inside will naturally not survive.
Of course, cloud bombs are not irresistible, as long as the fortifications are repaired according to the three-defense standards, but when the Maginot Line was built, there was no such concept and naturally there was no preparation.
As a result, this ultra-luxury version of the defense line, which cost a lot of money to build, turned into rubbish.
The place where the French considered the strongest became Germany's breakthrough point.
Anyway, at this point, it no longer matters whether the Germans counted it as a sneak attack or whether it counted as an undeclared war.
On the day the Maginot Line was laid, the war officially broke out.
Because the incident was so sudden, after the Maginot Line was opened, the French had no time to organize an effective defense.
Their main force at this time was either watching Italy on the southern front, or squatting in Belgium to help defend.
Before the French could recover from the chaos, the German mechanized army had passed through the Maginot Line in a mighty manner.
As the vanguard, the three armies rushed into the hinterland of France.
The Maginot Line is indeed the strongest position, but if it is broken through, it is also the weakest position.

On the one hand, the French were too confident in the Maginot Line of Defense.
On the other hand, it was also because they did not have enough troops to deploy defenses everywhere, so the troops behind the defense line were extremely empty.
The whole of France is like a shell.
Once the hard shell is cracked, all that is left is the soft flesh.
The only thing the French defenders had time to do was to quickly block the railway to Paris and destroy the locomotive so that Germany could not use the railway to march.
After the Germans broke through Maginot, they encountered no decent resistance at all and just marched straight in.
The rumbling German tanks crossed the border and galloped across the French plains.
The three army groups were divided into three groups.
The fifteen divisions of Army Group A went straight to Paris, Army Group B went north, and Army Group C went south to intercept the French reinforcements withdrawing.
Army Group A commanded by General Rundsted was furious and aggressive all the way, rushing toward Paris at a marching speed of more than 150 kilometers per day.
That afternoon, the important eastern town of Dijon fell.
An infantry regiment stationed here was run over by a German tank without any suspense.
At noon the next day, Troyes, an important town in central France, fell.
From Troyes to Paris, it is only less than 140 kilometers.
At this time, France's main force was still far away in Belgium and the Alpine defense line, and even if it rushed back overnight, it would be beyond its reach.
Coupled with the German air force's assault, which destroyed the railway and road hubs from the two places to Paris, even if there was no German interception, it would still take two or three days.
Now the city of Paris is so red in front of the Germans.
Hanking, General Staff Headquarters of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
The war in Europe attracted the attention of the whole world, and China was naturally no exception.
Wen Desi also invested a lot of energy in monitoring it.
Wen Desi's chess pieces in various countries have now grown up, and many of them have been integrated into high-level circles, or have become close confidants of high-level officials, and can already play a huge role.
Of course, they are still lurking now, and the most they do is send some information.
Therefore, before the Germans launched an attack, Wen Desi was already fully aware of the Germans' plan.
Before the war began, China specially allocated 18 satellites to monitor the French-German border in turns to ensure that there was always one eye watching.
Anyway, now that we have the Tongtian Bridge and the Tiangong-1 space station in space, it is really easy to deploy a few more satellites.
Well, now China's satellites are no longer called "launching", but should be called "laying", which means that the satellite laying spacecraft in the Tiangong-1 space station, commonly known as the "satellite placement ship", is directly placed in orbit.
If you want to add a few more, just let the star-distributing ship arrange them.
Because of Tongtianqiao, a big killer, its carrying capacity is several orders of magnitude higher than that of rockets, so China’s spy satellites can be made very large.
Ones of tens of tons or hundreds of tons are the most common ones.
There are several The giant synchronous monitoring satellite weighs even more than 3,000 tons and is as big as a villa.
Of course, they all launch prefabricated components first and then assemble them in space, but even so, it is much easier than launching with rockets in the original time and space.
Because China's satellites basically do not need to consider weight and volume issues, they can add a lot of equipment, plus various new designs and concepts from later generations.
Therefore, China's current spy satellites are very powerful and have surpassed the original time and space. level at the beginning of the 21st century.
Not only can they send back photos in real time, they can even broadcast live.
Moreover, there is no need to deliberately reduce performance due to the need to reduce weight, or have to use expensive materials and parts.
Therefore, the cost of satellites is also very low, so hundreds or even thousands of them can be planted like landmines.
The troop movements that the Germans thought were secret were completely visible to the eyes of these aerial clairvoyants.
With the continuous return of photos and live videos, the Chinese General Staff is equivalent to observing the entire process.
"France is probably going to be doomed this time.
If nothing else happens, by tomorrow, the German army's military boots will be on the Champs Elysées," a young staff officer said easily.
A colleague next to him also gloated: "Yes, the French are really unlucky.
In less than a hundred years, Paris was captured by the Germans for the third time."
"You said, how many days can the Germans take down France this time?"
"It's hard to say.
If the French resisted as resolutely as they did in World War I, they might have fought for several years.

However, in the last European War, too many of their people died.
After the war, many colonies fought for independence.
I'm afraid they are not that capable now.
Carrying it.”
"Britain, France and Russia are the most hateful among the great powers.
Now Russia has been retaliated by us.
Only Britain and France are worse.
If the Germans can beat Britain and France hard, it will be an excuse for us."
"Haha, these white-skinned guys are not fun.
You think the Germans are just good people?
Don't forget that the commander-in-chief of the Eight-Power Allied Forces is a German."
"The relationship between this country is not a human relationship.
It is unrealistic to rely on anyone else.
You still have to be strong yourself."
"So, according to me, the more fierce they fight, the better, and the more people die, the better.
The more white guys die, the stronger we are."
"It's a pity that the United States did not get involved.
It would be perfect if the United States also got involved."
These young staff officers all took advantage of the break after lunch to chat, and many of them had imaginative ideas.
Of course, China is completely different from old Japan.
The staff officers cannot control the chief officers, and they cannot let the superiors implement their imaginary plans.
UK, Scapa Flow, Royal Navy Anchorage.
The Germans would naturally not forget the Opium Cow.
Just before the Air Force launched the attack on the Maginot Line, one of their submarine formations also sneaked out of Scapa Flow.
Yes, they are preparing to strike first and kill several large British warships.
But although this idea is rich, the reality is very skinny, because the defense of Scapa Flow is too tight.
The channel in Scapa Flow itself is narrow and tortuous, and even ordinary surface ships need navigators to guide them through.
After becoming a naval anchorage, floating artillery batteries and blockade ships were installed at the entrance of the base, as well as anti-submarine nets and underwater listening device.
In addition, during World War I, the British were almost driven crazy by German submarines.
How could they not pay attention to anti-submarine warfare?
Scapa Flow is now even more heavily guarded.
It is impossible for German submarines to sneak in. of.
This German submarine formation squatted in Scapa Flow for several days without finding a chance, and was almost discovered several times.
So the commander of this operation, Colonel Hai Laimsimi, temporarily changed his plan and planned to stay outside and see if he had a chance to touch it while the British warships were coming in and out.
But what they didn't know was that on the seabed more than thirty kilometers away from them, there was a group of big guys much bigger than them who were also observing them.
This is a nuclear submarine formation from China.
There are a total of four Type 916 "Seawolf-class" nuclear-powered attack submarines, which are the latest model based on the continued improvement of the Type 912 "Beluga-class" nuclear-powered attack submarines.
This class of submarine is 120 meters long and has an underwater displacement of 12,000 tons.
It is currently China's and the world's most advanced attack submarine with the largest tonnage.
The "Sea Wolf" class has extremely high underwater speed, reaching 38 knots, which has surpassed many surface ships.
Currently, except for a few types such as the French Utopia class and Japan's Shimakaze class, there is basically no one faster than it.
Anti-submarine ships.
In other words, as long as it wants to run away, there is not much possibility of catching up.
It is also very quiet.
Not only is the hull equipped with sound-absorbing coatings and silencing tiles, but the entire power system is also placed on a vibration-absorbing raft.

The most important thing is that its power does not rely on the common form of nuclear power utilization such as "boiler burning", but a more advanced thermoelectric conversion system, which converts the heat generated by the nuclear reactor directly into electrical energy without the need for "burning boilers".
Boiler" is an intermediate conversion process.
This not only results in higher energy utilization, but also reduces mechanical noise by several orders of magnitude because there are fewer motion systems.
In addition, the "Seawolf-class" hull design is very unique and highly adaptable.
It can even penetrate thick ice and can perform tasks in both tropical and cold zones.
And it has an advanced combat command and control system that can track and lock eight targets at the same time.
Moreover, its weapons load capacity is also large, and it can carry up to 70 torpedoes and missiles.
The current situation in Europe is tense, and of course the Chinese Navy wants to go and watch the excitement.
Nuclear submarines are naturally the most suitable onlookers.
They have almost unlimited endurance, can stay under the sea for a long time, and have very high confidentiality.
China has sent a total of five nuclear submarine detachments to Europe to serve as onlookers, two in the Mediterranean and three in the North Atlantic.
Submarine Group 46 is one of the formations sent to the North Atlantic.
The formation commander, Captain Quan Qiuzhi, stared at the German submarine on the screen and said to the people around him: "These Germans must want to sneak attack the British Navy."
He is a well-known highly educated officer in the Navy.
He was a top academic figure in school.
When he walked out of school, he had two doctorate titles.
Therefore, he was promoted to major as soon as he entered the army, and he was promoted very quickly.
He was promoted to colonel in just five years, and he was appointed captain of the nuclear submarine detachment when he was just thirty.
If there are no accidents, he will be called "Your Excellency" in foreign countries in at most three years. .
But the most regretful thing about Colonel Quan's life is that he was born a few years too late and was unable to catch up with the First World War.
Now the German submarine has stopped moving after sitting on the bottom, and there is no movement from the British side.
This makes the Chinese onlookers very excited.
Quan Qiu was not in a hurry for knowledge.
This is not a job for the impatient.
He chewed spiced dried beans and took out a comic to read.
Anyway, the German submarines are not nuclear-powered, so they can't always sit on the bottom here.
At this time, intelligence officer Tantai Ming suddenly said: "Detachment leader, the British warship is leaving the port."
"Okay, I understand."
Quan Qiuzhi raised his head and glanced at the commander's screen in front of him.
A string of cursors marked as British warships are moving outside the port.
"Good guy, five battleships and three aircraft carriers."
Quan Qiuzhi looked at the name on the cursor and couldn't help but said, "This time it depends on whether the Germans can take it."
"Captain, if the Germans can't eat it, how about we do this?"
the captain, Lieutenant Colonel Qing Run, said with a silly smile.
Quan Qiuzhi shook his head: "No, there is no order from above.
We are here as spectators this time, so don't do anything."
Tantai Ming over there said excitedly: "The Germans have moved":
