Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland

A new sky screen appears.

The first scene is a grand black and white war scene with rumbling artillery fire.

You can tell at first glance that it was during World War II.

In the picture, a torrent of Soviet tanks is charging fiercely.

Germany's iron line of defense resisted to the death.

The confrontation between the giants has reached a fever pitch.

The whole process is accompanied by tense and rapid music.

Although there is not a single line of dialogue, it is just background music accompanying the grand and bloody war scenes.

This made the ancients look at it very attentively.

Then a map appeared on the sky curtain.

The attack arrow marked with a red star broke through rapidly from east to west and headed straight into the German mainland.

Tianmu also officially began to tell the story.

[In January 1945, the cold winter in Europe had not yet ended, but the fate of Nazi Germany was already like a candle in the wind.]

[On the Eastern Front, the Soviet Red Army's iron torrent rolled through Poland and headed straight for the Oder River;]

[Under the command of General Zhukov and other generals, the Soviet army's multiple armies were in high spirits and well-equipped, exerting a strong pressure on the German army.]

[On the Western Front, the US and British Allied Forces broke through the Rhine River defense line and advanced into the heart of Germany. ]

[The once invincible Third Reich is now being clamped tightly between the east and west lines.]

【Hitler's dream of a "thousand-year empire" was shattered into dust in the midst of the artillery fire.】

[Berlin, the city once praised by Hitler as the heart of the 'Thousand-Year Reich', has now become the last bastion of the Third Reich.]

[And in this capital that is about to fall, the German top brass is caught in a final battle of madness and despair. ]

【Time goes back to January 1945, 1. 】

[The Soviet Red Army launched a general offensive from the Vistula River. This offensive, which the Germans called "Avalanche", advanced 500 kilometers in just two weeks and completely shattered the German defenses on the Eastern Front.]

[At the same time, the Ardennes counterattack on the Western Front had just failed, the German army's last elite armored forces were exhausted, and the Allies regained the initiative. ]

[Hitler's Chief of Staff Jodl wrote in his diary: We no longer have strategic reserves, and every troop strength report is like a death notice.]

【We are losing the war against foreign enemies.】

[The situation in Germany is also not optimistic. ]

[The long-term consumption of the war brought Germany's domestic economy to the brink of collapse.]

【Industrial production was severely damaged and industrial areas were lost.】

【Many factories have had to reduce or even stop production due to lack of raw materials and labor. 】

【Steel production was less than one-sixth of that in 1944.】

【Food and daily necessities were extremely scarce, and a strict rationing system was implemented, making life miserable for the people.】

[Under the continuous bombing by the Allies, the city was devastated, a large number of buildings were destroyed, the infrastructure was paralyzed, and countless people lost their homes and became displaced. ]

[On January 1, Hitler issued a contradictory order: declaring Berlin a fortress city and demanding a fight to the last soldier.]

[But ironically, at this time, Berlin's defenses were almost non-existent. ]

[The defenders were mostly made up of national commandos, with an average age of over 50, and their only weapons were old-fashioned rifles and anti-tank rocket launchers.]

[Reich Armaments Minister Speer admitted in a secret memorandum: Berlin is a paper fortress.]

[In the bunker of the Chancellery, Hitler's decision-making circle is falling apart.]

【Goering was busy shipping gold to Bavaria.】

[Himmler secretly tried to negotiate with the Allies through Swedish channels.]

[Propaganda Minister Goebbels was frantically promoting miracle weapons, even declaring to the citizens: As long as we hold on until spring, the V-shaped rockets will be able to turn the tide of the war.]

……

Outside the sky.

Han Dynasty.

When Liu Che saw this, he looked at the screen depicting the precarious situation in Germany in 1945.

I can only sigh:
"It's only January 1945!"

"Looking back to more than three years ago, Germany was so strong and arrogant that it defeated the Soviet Union."

"As a result, in just two or three years, this huge German Millennium Empire fell into such a state."

"I don't know what kind of person Hitler is."

"But it can be seen that the choice he made in the war was indeed wrong, what a pity!"

And beside Liu Che.

Wei Qing saw the scene in which Hitler forced the old, weak, sick and disabled to join the army and become cannon fodder.

He also frowned and said: "Pushing the old, weak and disabled soldiers to a place where they are sure to die is definitely not what a wise ruler would do.

"When our Han Dynasty was preparing for the Battle of Mobei, Your Majesty personally made the arrangements and gave the new army ample time to train instead of rashly sending out troops."

"In comparison, although Hitler seemed very popular in later generations, he also occupied most of Europe at one point."

"But as a leader of a country, his level and awareness are far behind your Majesty."

As a fan of the German army during World War II, Huo Qubing saw that Dezi was at the end of his rope.

There are also some sighs:

"I never thought that the once invincible German army would be in such a state of disarray in 1945, not to mention winning on the battlefield."

"Himmler and Goering were both high-ranking officials in the German army." "But when the building was about to collapse, they were so miserable."

“I don’t know what will happen to Hitler.”

……

The sky continues.

[On January 1, the Soviet army entered Kustrin, a small town only 27 kilometers away from Berlin, which became the outpost of the battle.]

[But Hitler said: Anyone who retreats will be shot! ]

[This order completely deprived the remaining German troops on the Eastern Front of the possibility of mobile defense.]

[Despite the dire situation, Hitler still persisted in his attempt to turn the tide with his so-called "secret weapon" and his last remaining military force.]

[He refused to accept the reality of Germany's impending defeat and repeatedly issued unrealistic orders requiring the army to engage in meaningless resistance.]

[However, all this could not change Germany's fate of destruction. ]

【Amid this internal and external dilemma, the prelude to the Battle of Berlin is about to begin. 】

【For the Soviet Union, Berlin was not only a military target, but also a symbol of politics and revenge. 】

[The humiliation of the German army approaching Moscow in 1941, the tragedy of Stalingrad in 1942, and the blood debt of millions of Soviet soldiers and civilians must be settled in this city.]

[Stalin gave a clear order after the Yalta Conference: "Berlin must be captured by the Red Army itself!"]

[The Soviet army was determined to occupy Berlin to avenge the countless Soviet soldiers and civilians who died in the war.]

【…】

[Before the final battle, the war atmosphere in Berlin was unprecedentedly strong. ]

[On February 2, a large-scale bombing of the US military turned the center of Berlin into a sea of ​​fire. ]

[The dome of the Empire State Building collapsed, and refugees and soldiers at Friedrichstrasse Station were buried alive.]

[But the Nazi regime is still squeezing out its last war potential:]

[In the factory, a 14-year-old member of the Hitler Youth assembles Panzerfaust anti-tank shells.]

[A 60-year-old retired teacher on the street was incorporated into the militia and used sandbags and tram tracks to build roadblocks.]

[The German army seems to be large, but in fact... In mid-February, Major General Lehman, commander of the Berlin garrison, submitted a real defense assessment:]

[There are only 45 combat-ready tanks in the city, and the ammunition reserve is less than 72 hours. ]

[Hitler dismissed him on the spot after reading it.]

[Replaced with fanatical SS General Monk. ]

【You are deceiving yourself! 】

[Hitler liked Monk's defense plan because it was full of symbolic meaning.]

[Monch designated the Reichstag, the Chancellery and the Brandenburg Gate as the last line of defense, claiming that "this will be a monument to the Germanic spirit."]

[On March 3, Hitler issued the 'Nero Order', requiring the destruction of all German infrastructure.]

[Hitler said: If we lose the war, the German nation will become an inferior nation and will not deserve to survive! ]

[General Staff officer von Stauffenberg wrote in a private letter: The Führer has tied the entire country to a suicide train. ”]

【At this final moment. 】

[Hitler in the bunker is still obsessed with the phantom on the map. ]

【He insisted that the US-Soviet alliance would be torn apart by ideological contradictions. 】

【But actually. 】

【There was no infighting as Hitler dreamed of.】

[The Allies on the Western Front had already given the Berlin Plan to the Soviet Union.]

[Allied Commander-in-Chief Eisenhower was very wary of the German army's combat power, and was even more concerned about the huge casualties in the Berlin street fighting, so he took the initiative to include Berlin in the Soviet combat zone.]

[Although Churchill strongly opposed it, he was powerless to change the US decision.]

【The stage of history was thus left to the Soviet Union.】

Outside the sky, Zhu Di saw this.

I saw the sentence "The stage of history was thus left to the Soviet Union."

As the Ming Dynasty's number one general in the Northern Expedition, Zhu Di couldn't help but take a deep breath and looked at the Soviet generals in the conference room with a little envy in his eyes.

"No matter how this battle is fought, no matter how this war started and how it ends."

"At least, in this largest war in human history, the final curtain call performance was left to these Soviet generals."

Zhu Di's tone was somewhat envious.

"Oh, sometimes, I really envy them."

"As soldiers, they were born at the right time and were given a stage to perform on."

"Well, let me see how the Soviet Union will put a perfect end to this epic war."

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

"As for Germany."

Zhu Di also knew that Germany was the ultimate villain in World War II.

But Zhu Di felt that a villain’s farewell should also have the style of a villain.

"Of course, we also hope that Germany can perform at a certain level."

"It's okay to watch the fun, haha." (End of this chapter)
