081sThe bodies sent to the wounded camp were actually seriously injured soldiers who died during transportation.
The situation on the battlefield was chaotic.
The medical soldiers, with the mentality of saving as many wounded as possible, would send a large number of wounded soldiers to the rear.
Some of these wounded soldiers were lightly injured, while others were seriously injured.
The seriously injured soldiers were in a serious condition.
Some of them might not seem too serious after being bandaged at the beginning, but during the transportation process, the bumps on the road caused secondary injuries, causing their wounds to burst open and bleed, leading to excessive blood loss and death.
On the battlefield, the main cause of death of soldiers was blood loss.
An adult’s blood is only about five liters. If an artery is injured, one or two liters of blood can be lost within a few minutes, causing ischemia symptoms. If the bleeding site cannot be effectively controlled and the bleeding cannot be stopped, then the body temperature will drop due to excessive blood loss, insufficient blood supply to the brain, and other reasons will soon cause death!
Although this wounded camp is not too far from the front line, it is at least more than ten kilometers away. The artillery fire of the Southern Army is quite fierce, and the wounded camp is a key point with extremely dense personnel and little defense. If this location is exposed to the enemy, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be hit by enemy artillery fire. Therefore, the safety of the wounded camp was considered when the site was selected.
MacArthur is a veteran of the battlefield. It is reasonable to say that he cannot fail to understand these principles, but he still said this when he understood what was going on. This can only mean that he is not in a good mood at the moment!
Indeed, it would be strange if he could be in a good mood!
“Let’s go to the front line and see how the battle turned out like this!”
After staying in the wounded camp for a while, the front line was filled with gunfire, and in just a short while, several batches of wounded were sent over. This scene made MacArthur feel even worse. At this moment, he just wanted to go to the battlefield in person to see what happened on the battlefield!
Just as MacArthur was inspecting the wounded camp of the US military, the German army in the south finally began to act!
Although Guderian did not return, his First Army had completely recovered after half a month of rest. The soldiers were in excellent condition. At this time, everyone was ready to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy!
And just at this time, the good news from Texas came. The German army’s operation in Texas was a great success. Not only They regained control of the Texas region and completely wiped out the U.S. Southwestern Army.
After resolving the crisis in Texas, Model’s Second Army can immediately join in the encirclement of the U.S. troops in the east!
Not only that, after the First Army, the Third Army has also set out at this time, and under the escort of Lütjens’ Northern Fleet, it is preparing to land directly in the northeastern region of the United States.
In order to create conditions for the landing of the Third Army, Berlin’s headquarters issued an order for a full-scale offensive.
In the following time, the Southern Army and the German Army did their best to create the biggest noise, firmly attract the attention of the U.S. military, and mobilize the U.S. military’s forces to the battlefields in Florida and the south!
In this way, the North The defense of the northeastern part of the Eagle Sauce, which is far away from the battlefield, will appear very empty, and the German Third Army will have a much higher success rate under the cover of the navy!
This operational plan is quite bold, especially the Third Army’s direct landing in the northeastern part of the Eagle Sauce is very risky!
Once the troops carrying out the landing operation are suppressed in the attack on the beachhead, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people may be driven into the sea.
If such a thing happens, the number of casualties is bound to be very ugly!
Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, in the headquarters’ operational plan, they requested to mobilize the Eagle Sauce garrison stationed in the northeast, so that the number of US troops here cannot exceed 500,000.
Taking into account the Eagle Sauce in the northeast The region has a large number of cities, so these 500,000 people will definitely be dispersed to various cities. As long as the German army does not leak the news in advance and does not let the enemy know their intentions, these 500,000 people will not be assembled immediately!
And when the German army successfully completes the landing, even if the US military gathers these 500,000 people, it may not be able to stop the attack of a fully armed and elite German field army that has successfully completed the landing!
If such an action is successful, the German army will save a lot of time attacking from south to north, and they can directly threaten the core area of the Eagle Sauce!
As long as the northeastern region of the country is occupied, especially the rust belt near the Great Lakes region, then the outcome of this war has been decided!
“This tactic is so risky, it doesn’t seem like the Führer’s style!”
On the way back to Florida, Guderian and Model also received combat orders from the headquarters.
After receiving this order, even Guderian, who was unrestrained and radical in his fighting style, was shocked by this extremely risky combat plan!
“It is a bit risky, especially when the US Atlantic Fleet is still there. Once the landing troops are discovered, they may not even have a way to retreat. So this move is simply a gamble with their lives, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people!”
Model and Guderian both grew up with Mainz. They are very familiar with Mainz’s style. Although Mainz’s tactical play sometimes appears to be very radical, he rarely makes such a gamble!
At the moment, the situation of the German army in Florida is not too good, but it is certainly not bad.
Although they only control a very small part of the land south of Florida, the scope of the war is limited to the southern region.
But on the bright side, the German army has at least successfully gained a foothold. Several attacks by the US military have been repelled by them, and they have also caused a large number of casualties to the US military. In this case, the base camp in Florida has basically stabilized!
Next, the German army only needs to keep the sea route open, and then continuously send follow-up troops from the mainland to strengthen the German army in Florida. The military strength of North America can defeat the Eagle Sauce little by little!
However, judging from the current progress, it is probably impossible to defeat the Eagle Sauce quickly. If troops are sent from Europe, it will take a lot of time and material resources. Moreover, the Eagle Sauce is a big country with a strong blood-making ability. Defeating them once or twice will not make them perish immediately. Therefore, even if the German reinforcements come up later, it is foreseeable that this war will still last for a long time.
However, both Guderian and Model can see that the situation is favorable to the German army. If they continue like this, they will be able to eliminate the Eagle Sauce and win the war in at least half a year and at most one to two years!
