Josep Broz Tito, who has been in charge of Yugoslavia for half a century in history, is now a middle-aged man in his forties.

On May 25, 1892, Tito was born into a poor peasant family in kumrowec village, Croatia.

In 1913, Tito was enlisted into the army of the Austro Hungarian Empire and won the second place in the fencing competition of the whole army. He is a strong young man with first-class military quality.

In 1915, Tito fought with the Russian army, was wounded and captured and arrived in Russia. As a result, he accepted the baptism of the Russian October Revolution and had a new faith.

After that, Tito returned to Yugoslavia and served successively as member of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia Regional Committee, Secretary of Zagreb hardware trade union and Secretary of Zagreb municipal Party committee. Tito was arrested and imprisoned by the authorities in 1920.

Until his release in 1934, he was elected as a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and engaged in the party's secret work. At the beginning of the second year, he went to Moscow to serve as a member of the Balkan Secretariat of the Communist International and a Rapporteur on Yugoslavia.

In December 1937, Tito began to preside over the work of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia.

I don't think Tito's resume mentioned his battle in the Spanish Civil War, but in fact, Tito did participate in the Spanish Civil War.

For Tito, coming to Spain is actually a brush of experience and qualifications. As long as he stays in Spain for a period of time, he will properly become the primary leader of the party in Yugoslavia.

Unfortunately, Tito didn't have a good chance. Originally, he couldn't go to Madrid. There is a possibility of glory at any time. Tito came to the Field Airport in the rear and took a team of troops from Yugoslavia to participate in the task of defending the airport. After staying for a while, Tito can return to Yugoslavia with honor.

As a result, the Germans sneaked into the airport and Tito was beaten up.

Hiding in the mountains near torriha, Tito felt very depressed.

"Any news?" In a cave, Tito asked his deputy Ivan goshniak, who had just returned.

Ivan's face was excited: "yes, there's news. After our air base was captured, the German vulture regiment stationed here. Although the leader used an alias, I still know his real name is Shrek, that's the notorious German!"

After Ivan went out, he inquired about the news of the nearby air force base, which made everyone very excited.

"We'll do a great job if we touch in and quietly kill that Shrek!" Tito said.

render meritorious service! Tito really wants to prove that he is definitely not a vase through a beautiful battle. He is here to fight!

Ivan shook his head: "no, they defend too tightly! These Germans are holding submachine guns and tanks. They are guarding the periphery of the airport. There are even military dogs in every corner. We can't touch them. "

It's not easy to get in. The Germans succeeded in the sneak attack because the vigilance of the Republican Army is too low. In contrast, the Germans have long been prepared and are very vigilant.

"We must find more people!" Tito said, "it was not only us who were scattered that night, but also we must gather more people to have hope. We have to find an informant. It would be easier to ambush this Shrek on the road when he goes out. "

Tito clenched his teeth, ambushed xierik and killed xierik in the Spanish battlefield. This idea is his current goal!

………

"Buzz, buzz." The motorcyclist turned the accelerator. At the same time, his two legs were lifted up, and the water splashed below.

Welwa River, a small river near Mueller, is in the dry season. The river is very shallow. Motorcycles can pass without effort!

On the motorcycle, Adenauer's eyes looked warily at the front. As scouts, they must find the possible enemy situation at the first time!

However, the front is very calm, small village, wisps of cooking smoke, calm and peaceful.

"No problem, you can move forward." Adenauer said.

Behind them, a few kilometers away, tanks rumbled up, crawlers rolled over the river and smoothly reached the opposite side.

Mountain, finally past, in front, flat!

The hatch of a leopard 2 tank opened and goodrian came out. He was very excited when he looked at the field in the distance.

It's out of the mountain!

"Sir, let's just keep up our spirits and rush across the Ebro River tonight." Kurt suggested to goodrian.

Goodrian nodded. "How is our fuel consumption?"

Fuel is the most important thing to pay attention to in the long-distance attack! Mechanized troops must have sufficient fuel!

Therefore, the first armored division is equipped with a large number of 10 ton Ford all wheel drive trucks. These trucks will continuously provide logistics supplies when their own side charges.

After the last replenishment, the truck returned and reloaded the fuel. With the increasing distance, the round-trip time will also increase.

"Don't worry, our fuel is enough for us to go back to Zaragoza in circles." Kurt said.

The use of diesel engine as tank fuel greatly increases the tank's journey! You can run hundreds of kilometers!

This time, in order to march for a long distance, all Panther tanks are equipped with two additional fuel tanks at the rear to further increase the carrying capacity of fuel.

"Well, tonight, cross the Ebro River!" Goodrian said, "tomorrow, we will recover Zaragoza!"

Go, go, go! The essence of Blitzkrieg is to use the mobility of mechanized equipment to travel long distances and appear in places unexpected to the enemy!

In particular, to the plain, it is simply a paradise for tanks!

Kinto, in the history of the Spanish Civil War, the famous kinto battle broke out here. It is also a place of repeated competition and battle.

But now, kinto is an undefended place. There is no army stationed here!

All the troops around Zaragoza were mobilized to the other side of the valley to ambush the German armored forces. They were ready, but they didn't expect the Germans to appear from their rear.

Their rear is empty!

"Creak!" Ran to the other side of the bridge in one breath. Conrad stepped on the brake and Adenauer jumped down from the sidecar.

Ebro River is the second longest river in the Iberian Peninsula and the longest river completely in Spain. Now it has reached the downstream and the river surface is open. It is difficult to cross the mechanized forces without occupying the bridge.

"Come on, protect the bridge!" Right here, the leading investigation force drove one motorcycle after another. They quickly established a bridgehead position and waited for the passage of the follow-up troops.
