(There are two more chapters to post tonight)

"The 15 escort destroyers including Lieutenant General, Dart River, Exx River, Aven, Nes River and Nes River... have just entered Concepshun Bay."

The rainfall on the 28th and the wind and waves on the sea near Newfoundland Island also gave Allied maritime forces the opportunity to reinforce Newfoundland Island. Just in the afternoon of the same day, 15 British (Canadian) U.S. Navy escort destroyers departing from the Gulf of Lawrence the night before broke through the blockade of German submarines and mines and sailed into Concepshun Bay.

"Didn't you have trouble on the road?" Lieutenant General Fraser, commander of the Allied Newfoundland Frigate, asked the staff members who reported to him.

"No." The consultant replied, "presumably because these 15 escort destroyers were demagnetized, so they did not encounter a mine along the way, and they did not encounter a German U-type submarine."

"Great!" Lieutenant General Collins, who was staying in a command with Lieutenant General Fraser, clapped his hands and said in an unconcealed tone, "There are 15 more destroyers, and now you are more confident!"

Lieutenant General Fraser also nodded and said with a smile: "Thanks to God's help... It's ours during the day. The 20th Army should be able to push German paratroopers to the beach. The Navy will also have more escort destroyers and U-class submarines into the bay, and the Germans have no way to clear them in a short time. It seems that we can really destroy more than 30,000 Germans airdropped to Newfoundland Island!"

When he said this, Lieutenant General Fraser was a little skeptical, and he wiped out 30,000 German troops!

Although the World War has started and the Germans have suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, they have not yet been wiped out 30,000 people in an integrated manner! If Newfoundland wins this time, it will be a record victory.

"Where is the German fleet?" Lieutenant General Collins of the United States also had a dreaming feeling that although his practical experience was not enough, you can still analyze the current situation on Newfoundland Island.

No matter how you look at this, it is the Allied forces! No matter how hard the German airborne troops can fight, it is still a light unit. The 300,000 Allied troops on Newfoundland are all heavy units, tanks and cannons, and the training level is not low. How can you not beat the 30,000 German paratroopers? This is not in line with military common sense!

After thinking about it, Collins felt that unless the German National People's Congress fleet and the landing fleet rushed into Concepshun Bay, the Germans would undoubtedly lose this battle on Newfoundland.

"The weather is not good now, and the F-13 reconnaissance plane has not been dispatched," said Lieutenant General Fraser. "Last night's reconnaissance found that there were two large German fleets within 300 nautical miles of Newfoundland. One of them should be a German aircraft carrier force, and the other is probably a landing fleet."

The f-13 has a large range and can fly very high, and is theoretically not affected by rainfall clouds. However, the radar technology of this era is not very good. The radar waves will be disturbed and absorbed by clouds and sea surface winds and waves. When it is fed back to the screen in the f-13 cabin, it becomes a messy spot of light.

Therefore, in stormy weather, the f-13 reconnaissance aircraft/early warning aircraft generally will not be dispatched, and even if it is dispatched, it will not be able to detect anything.

"300 nautical miles..." Collins estimated, "It should be here today or tomorrow."

"It's tomorrow." Lieutenant General Fraser said, "There will not be good weather all day today. The German carrier-based aircraft cannot be dispatched. Without Air You, they cannot rush into Concepshun Bay. The cannons of Churchill Fortress can block them. So they will not break into the bay today."

Churchill Navy Fortress has 8 406mm cannons, and they are installed in very strong armored turrets. Even Hindenburg-class battleships cannot withstand the bombardment of Churchill Navy Fortress. Moreover, Churchill Navy Fortress has more than 8 406mm cannons, and there are many 305mm, 240mm and 203mm shore cannons. They have enough firepower to block the entrance to Concepshun Bay and can also be used to support the battle on the west coast of Concepshun Bay. However, Lieutenant General Fraser was worried about premature exposure of firepower, and was killed by the Germans with remote control missiles, no matter how strong the turret is, it cannot withstand the strike of more than 2 tons of death missiles, so they did not let them open fire and bombard the German positions on the west coast of Concepshun Bay, but only fired 12 240mm cannons on Bell Island.

"Tomorrow...if they come tomorrow," Collins asked, frowning, "how many days can we stand?"

"At least a few weeks!" Lieutenant General Fraser said with great certainty, "Even if the main force of the navy is still, the defensive force of Newfoundland alone can prevent the German fleet from rushing into Consepshin Bay within a few weeks. And... the 57th Special Mixed Fleet is now taking advantage of the wind and rainy weather in the North Atlantic to advance towards the Azores, which should attract some German fleets.

In addition, the Royal Navy Z Fleet has now reached the Gulf of Lawrence, and the 11th American special-mix fleet is now approaching Newfoundland. Even if they cannot defeat the German fleet, they can at least restrain their strength and create favorable conditions for the assault of light ships."

The 11th Special Mixed Z Fleet is two fleets with battleships and heavy cruisers as the main force. Although they cannot defeat the surface battleships of the European Combined Fleet (excluding aircraft carriers), they can find ways to hook them from the periphery of Consepshin Bay, and then use light patrols and destroyers to assault the European Union's landing fleet, and they will definitely win a great victory.

If the Germans are not fooled, they are not afraid. The main guns of battleships and battlecruisers are very long, and they can open fire and shoot more than 30 kilometers away. The German landing fleet can be used as long as the radar and glasses castle of Churchill Fortress helps to observe and aim, they can definitely sink many German landing ships at night.

"So... we can really win a big victory!" Collins nodded. He couldn't think of any way the Germans could turn the tables in actual combat? The big victory seemed to be expected.

At this moment, a staff officer reported the good news he had just received as if he was in line with the situation: "Sir, Lieutenant General Walker reported that the 21st Armored Division had just broken through the German defense line and cut off the road between Grace Harbor Airport and Grace Harbor. The vanguard of the 21st Armored Division was less than 6 kilometers away from Grace Harbor Airport."

"That's great!" Collins, who was full of solemn faces just now, burst into laughter excitedly, "We really want to win now!"

Lieutenant General Collins' excitement is not unreasonable. Previous reconnaissance showed that Grace Airport was a large stronghold for the German army to deploy heavily. The road from Grace Port Airport to Grace Port is the only communication channel between the German troops guarding the airport and other German troops on the island. The road was cut off, which means that the US military has successfully surrounded a certain number of German troops.

Moreover, the current location of the vanguard of the 21st Panzer Division of the US Army is only 6 kilometers away from Grace Harbor and less than 10 kilometers away from Cabernet Port. As long as the m7 self-propelled artillery is transported up, it can cover Grace Harbor and Cabernet Port and nearby airports with 105mm howitzers. Although the shore defense guns on Bell Island and the cannons of Churchill Fortress can be covered there, the shore defense guns and fortress guns are difficult to move or cannot move. Once fire is opened, the position will be exposed and it is easily attacked by the "God of Death" missile. The m7 priest self-propelled artillery is very mobile and can be transferred quickly, which is very suitable for bombarding the German positions on the west coast of Concepshun Bay.

Don’t underestimate the power of self-propelled howitzers of the 105mm and 155mm level. Hundreds of 105mm and 155mm cannons that fire endlessly can definitely make people who are bombed crazy... at least for those soldiers who are not nervous enough, it is enough to make them collapse.

"Boom! Boom!" The 105mm and 155mm shells hit the German positions at the Grace Harbour Airport like raindrops, shaking the momentum.

"It's another shelling. They are idiots who think they are still fighting?" Lieutenant Brandt, leaning in the bulletproof bunker, shook off the sand and gravel on his helmet, and lit an American cigarette in his mouth without caring about it.

Although he said so, he was very worried that now it was not only the Americans who were "fighting a war", but the German paratroopers hiding in trenches and bunkers were also fighting a war-type battle. The difference was that the Americans had many tanks, and the German paratroopers did not lack anti-tank weapons.

But the German paratroopers without support can't stand the Americans' sea of ​​fire, tanks and people!

Brandt remembered the situation of the 101st Assault Battalion retreating to Grace Airport two hours ago. Although the assault battalion had the best soldiers and quite well-equipped equipment, it was still defeated by the Americans with overwhelming firepower and armored forces. Most of the e-25 and 4h tanks were exhausted, and there were heavy casualties. The 101st Battalion that retreated from the front line only had 4 e-25 and 6 No. 4h tanks left. The number of officers and soldiers who could barely fight was only more than 400, each of whom was exhausted, and some were slightly injured.

If this battle continues, it will always be a little bad!

"The Grace Harbor Airport and Grace Harbor must be recaptured by dawn tomorrow, otherwise the Germans will airdrop again... Who knows what they will throw down?" In a ruined town less than 5 kilometers away from Grace Harbor Airport, Walton Walker, the commander of the 20th Army of the United States, was giving orders to his division commanders and regiment commanders.

He also has the same feeling as Brandt now, always feeling a little bad! Although the battle is progressing smoothly, the Germans are really defeated so easily? Perhaps Collins, who has never fought any tough battles, will believe it, but Lieutenant General Walton Walker, who has seen all kinds of cruel scenes in the Hawaiian Islands, will not believe it.
