In history, Germany did land in the Navy, but it was not called the Marine Corps at that time, but the naval infantry division.

In fact, their experience was similar to that of Soviet soldiers, mainly because they had no warships in their hands.

When Bismarck sank into the cold sea and the German Navy's surface ships lost Hitler's trust, Hitler even ordered to dismantle the guns of old warships and use them as shore defense guns. In this way, a large number of navy officers and soldiers had no equipment to operate.

However, their sense of war was very strong. Under such circumstances, they changed into an infantry division. They were still the establishment and rank of the Navy, but they did the work of fighting on land.

This became the naval infantry division. Their combat effectiveness was very strong. They were even called the blue SS.

Now, it is different from the situation in history.

The German Navy is constantly expanding its scale and proving its existence value with victory after victory. The navy is developing in great strides.

One of the combat objectives that the Navy needs to face is to land in Britain across the sea. The first troops to land are the Marines!

They aim to land in Britain from formation to training. Of course, they didn't expect that one day, they would land in the United States across the sea.

At his feet was a tank landing ship with a displacement of 4000 tons. The division commander, rear admiral Ernst schaellen, stood on the bridge in high spirits.

This is the first battle of the Marine Corps. They must show their style!

He is very confident. After all, he has studied Brest dozens of times. The beach there is the most ideal landing site. More importantly, up to now, the French have no defense and have not arranged any counterattack positions. It is simply an ideal landing site!

At the same time, he was also quite confident in the landing ship under his feet. After many studies and even made a model, they finally found the correct scheme of the landing ship.

The landing ship has a total length of 100 meters, a maximum ship width of 15.24 meters and a minimum draft of 1.16 meters.

As a landing ship, the biggest feature is to change the draft through a ballast tank. When landing on the beach, the bow of the ship can be raised slightly, so that tanks and vehicles can land more conveniently.

At the same time, a special door is designed at the bow of the ship, and the vehicles inside can be started directly.

Now, in the lower layer of the landing ship, there are 20 Panther 3 tanks, which are their main weapons. With these tanks, they can be more confident in beach landing!

To this end, the German defense forces army was very unhappy. They recognized the SS and robbed them of equipment, but they didn't expect that even the navy was robbing them of equipment now!

Their sixth armored division didn't have enough Panther 3 tanks, so they had to equip Hunter tank destroyers. At the same time, the newly established Marine Corps robbed them of more than 100 Panther 3 tanks!

However, although the IDF was unhappy, it did not dare to say anything in front of head of state chirek.

This makes major general Ernst very happy. This time, we must let the national defense forces see that the Marines can fight a hard battle. This batch of equipment is not given to them in vain.

At the stern of the landing ship, there are four 700 HP marine diesel engines directly transplanted from the diesel engines on the submarine. These four diesel engines can drive the landing ship to a high speed of about 15 knots.

In this way, they set out from the Spanish port at night, and they need to reach Brest at dusk.

The time of this day is what needs to be adhered to in skorzny, who arrived early.

They did not fight alone. Just when they captured the Treasury and repulsed the attack of the surrounding French soldiers, the carrier aircraft of the German aircraft carrier formation and the junker-88 bombers taking off from the Spanish air force base had flown over Brest!

The German plan is quite precise! With incomparable tacit understanding!

In the port, "Joan of arc" and "e-belden" have always been in a state of action at any time. Their boilers have not stalled, and the internal steam pressure is also in a state of starting at any time. Once necessary, they can start as soon as they add fire.

Now, when they found a fleet of aircraft flying in the sky, they also put into combat at the first time.

"Come on, come on, come on!" A gun shouted loudly. His men, several French navy officers and soldiers, were rapidly shaking the high and low aircraft to quickly point the model 1932 130mm high-level dual-purpose sub gun to the sky.

Although they are in the state of action at any time, the generator on the ship is still not started and there is no power. They can only use manual mode.

The high and low planes were shaking in circles, and the Gunners on both sides turned their arms quickly at this time. They also knew that time was running out and they had to be fast!

However, the gunner kept tracking the target, but finally reluctantly put down the telescope.

Not high enough! It's beyond the shooting range! This kind of high-level and flat dual-purpose gun on your side can't raise the muzzle to more than 75 degrees. Now the other party's flying attitude is just outside your firepower range.

He could only reluctantly give up the attack, and at the same time, on the other side of the civil wharf, the voice of surprise had been constantly coming.

These panicked French civilians were even more frightened when they saw the bombers flying overhead with terrible cross marks.

So that they were no longer afraid of the sailors on guard. They came towards the wharf here. They wanted to get on the warship!

The arrival of German bombers flustered the civilians. On the wharf of the military port, several soldiers standing guard were washed away by the flow of people in an instant. Then, countless people rushed here!

"Lift the anchor and leave the port!" The captain saw all this on the bridge and gave orders immediately.

Those people can't be allowed to board warships because they have tasks. However, if the other party comes up, can they shoot with machine guns?

Get out of the port!

At this time, black smoke came out of the chimney, the propeller at the tail turned, and the huge ship slowly left the wharf.

"No, wait for me!" One of the fastest civilians threw away his hat and suitcase and ran over quickly. His eyes watched the warship gradually leave, very anxious.

When he ran over, the warship had left the dock for several meters! He didn't stop, accelerated, and jumped out!

Only half a meter away, he could jump into the boat, and now he ran out of speed, and then he fell down.

He is struggling in the water. He can't swim!

Facing the civilian, the soldiers at the stern silently threw down a swimming circle.

They are soldiers. Their duty is to protect civilians, but now they can't protect the people of their country!
