The style of this song is very similar to medieval church songs. Mainz improved the content of the lyrics, making this song one of the twelve war songs of the German army and regarded as the military song of the First Army.
This music is magnificent, especially under the performance of a military band of thousands of people, it is even more exciting and soul-stirring. Everyone, even if they are not German soldiers and Hans, is shocked by the music and their blood surges, and they can’t wait to pick up their weapons and fight! Even
President Roosevelt was affected and subconsciously wanted to stand up straight, but after trying several times and failing, he remembered that it was difficult for him to stand on his legs!
Guderian, who accompanied Mainz to review the troops, couldn’t help but follow the surge of blood and became emotional after hearing this war song!
This song was composed by the president himself for their First Army!
This honor made Guderian and the more than 300,000 soldiers of the First Army extremely loyal to their commander. Even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, as long as Mainz gave an order, these 300,000 elite soldiers would rush up without blinking!
They were really willing to die for their leader!
Mainz stood on the review car, his eyes swept through each soldier seriously. These soldiers had just participated in the Gallic Campaign, and the murderous aura on their bodies had not faded, so when they stood together in groups, the strong murderous aura of a sea of blood and corpses came to their faces!
Mainz himself had also walked out of a war of a sea of blood and corpses, so he did not feel any discomfort for such murderous aura, but nodded with great satisfaction!
Yes, the army can be used!
This army did not become proud and complacent because of the previous victory. Every soldier of theirs was extremely eager for war, and extremely eager to fight bravely for the motherland and attack the city!
This is the mission of the soldiers, and also their honor!
It took about ten minutes for Mainz, accompanied by Guderian, to complete the review of the troops.
Soon, he returned to the rostrum, and Goebbels, who was waiting on the side, officially announced the start of the parade:
“The military parade officially begins now!”
Along with these words, the German military band immediately changed to another piece of music – Opening Credits!
This song is different from the previous war songs. This song is extremely heavy. When you first listen to it, you can immediately be brought into the war and feel the horror and depression of the battlefield with artillery fire and bullets flying!
After hearing this song, many people realized that they can stand here today because the German army has gone through a series of brutal bloody battles and defeated the enemy before they took this place!
The land under their feet is soaked with the blood of soldiers, and the square where they are now may have been the scene of a very tragic battle not long ago!
Some Hans people began to sob softly when they heard this, and they didn’t know if they were reminded of the sad past.
Just as the song sounded, Goebbels’ voice on the rostrum also reached everyone’s ears.
“Now, coming towards us are the soldiers of the First Army under General Guderian. In this war, the First Army served as the vanguard. They were invincible and victorious, defeating the enemy with a small force. They were like a sharp knife, piercing the weakest heart of the enemy army amidst thousands of troops!”
“In the 28-day battle, the First Army suffered a total of 12,782 casualties and 32,768 injuries, paying a heavy price, but their sacrifice was worth it because they defeated the enemy with a small force and surrounded the superior enemy forces with inferior forces, and achieved an impressive record of killing 7,892 people and capturing 560,000. It can be said that without the bloody battles of the First Army soldiers, there would be no great victory today!”
Accompanied by Goebbels’ inspiring explanation, everyone realized that the army in front of them was the famous First Army of the German Army!
And when they heard the series of numbers reported by Goebbels, they were shocked!
The First Army, with a small force against a large one, unexpectedly attacked Gaul from the Ardennes Forest, piercing the heart of Gaul, disrupting the enemy’s strategic deployment in one fell swoop, and making millions of enemy troops trapped in the German army!
And they themselves achieved an impressive record of annihilating 600,000 enemies with less than 50,000 casualties, and the loss ratio of both sides reached an exaggerated 1:1!
You know, the opponent they are facing is not the army of a second-rate or third-rate country, but the Japanese The armies of old powers like Brussels and Gaul!
If they were facing countries like Poland or Czech, it would be acceptable to have such a high casualty ratio. However, they were able to achieve such a nearly one-sided result when facing these two old powers, which shocked the politicians from various countries present!
So, the way they looked at the German army changed, and they became awed!
The main troops to be reviewed on behalf of the First Army were Paulus’s 17th Division and Reinhardt’s 1st Armored Division.
Both of these troops had experienced hard battles and paid a huge price in previous battles.
Seeing this well-organized and murderous division marching out of the Arc de Triomphe in an orderly manner… As they crossed, the politicians from various countries held their breath.
Is this the strength of the First Army?
Being able to achieve such a high casualty ratio, one can imagine the combat effectiveness of this army. I wonder what the result would be if my country’s army faced them! The
5,000 infantrymen of the 17th Division were the first to pass through the square. When they passed, many people noticed that there were a large number of wounded soldiers in their army.
And many of the cars they were riding in also had bullet marks!
Many of the politicians from various countries who participated in the military parade had heard of the Battle of Sedan. Although this battle was not large in scale, it was no less important than the Battle of the Eiffel Tower for the Gallic Campaign!
It was because of Paul Lu The 17th Division of S was firmly blocked in the Sedan area, blocking the crazy attack of the 400,000 troops of Degaulle, which gave the friendly forces in the north the opportunity and time to calmly encircle and annihilate the 600,000 Allied forces in the Bastogne area!
Otherwise, once Degaulle opened up the passage to the north, the outcome of the war would be unpredictable!
The German army’s defensive ability and fighting spirit were really admirable to be able to block the crazy attack of more than 400,000 enemy troops with only 20,000 soldiers!
It seems that the German army is not only a good offensive force, they are also a good defensive force, and they also have a steel-like fighting will!
