Chapter 77 Women and Children in Front

Compared with Tito's troops, Mikhailovich's Homeland Army is the same as many old armies and new armies. The biggest disadvantage is the gap in organizational level.

For the armed forces within the Motherland Army, many local leaders led troops to join voluntarily. Mikhailovich did not have strong leadership power. Many local generals did not listen to him very much, and many of these generals cooperated with the German army.

This is also one of the reasons why the British concluded that the fighting power of the Fatherland Army was not as good as that of Tito after the investigation, and finally turned to support Tito. However, in terms of numbers, the Yugoslav Fatherland Army is no different from the original Tito.

The same is true for the Yugoslav Fatherland Army on the Austrian border. Because they were chased by Tito's troops and had nowhere to go, Mikhailovich's authority has increased, and he has a certain degree of restraint on the entire Yugoslav Fatherland Army. He is still not the authority to keep his promises, he can only persuade other commanders as much as possible when things come to an end.

For so many days, Mikhailovich has been silent, and he has withstood the huge psychological pressure. He is already worthy of the psychological quality of leading the Fatherland Army for many years. Full of fear, Mikhailovich actually knew it well.

I can't believe the Croats. Although the Croatian Ustasha is now armed, Tito should not chase him to the Austrian border, but this proves that Tito is so ruthless to his own people, and to them, the Serbian-dominated homeland army Armed, there is no reason to let go.

"Colonel, what do you think we should do?" All the commanders who came to Mikhailovich felt that the situation was serious. Once they return to Yugoslavia and face Tito, the fate of these people is doomed to be miserable.

"There is no way, but we have no choice." Mikhailovich took out the speech he had prepared, and said in a sad tone, "We can't sit still, we will lose the ability to resist when we return to Yugoslavia , there is only one person who can save us now."

who? Everyone looked at each other. They didn't know that Mikhailovich disappeared for a few days, but no one knew where Mikhailovich went. They thought Mikhailovich had found a way to go into exile. .

Later, Mikhailovich reappeared, and everyone didn't think much about it. They were kept in the dark about the whole matter, and naturally they didn't know what the so-called method was talking about now.

And the most important thing is that all the weapons in their hands have been confiscated by the British. Where can they go without weapons?

"Even if we have weapons, we can't defeat the British and American troops. Now we are pure refugees without weapons. With such a large number of refugees, no army can shoot without scruples. We let children and women walk in front, for us Open the way and bet whether the British soldiers and the American soldiers will shoot."

If Alan Wilson was here, he would definitely call out experts when he heard Mikhailovich say this. The refugees who flooded into Europe in later generations like to let women and children take the lead, arouse the sympathy of Europeans, break through the border and then lay down. Don't leave.

Now that Mikhailovich let women and children cover his troops in front, he has initially mastered the essence of shamelessness, and he is worthy of being the leader of the Homeland Army who has led it for many years.

Hearing Mikhailovich's words, the surrounding commanders were obviously moved. In fact, even if Alan Wilson was here, he felt that it might succeed.

There are no sympathetic groups in Europe in this era. European countries have gone through years of war and have become numb to all kinds of tragedies. How can there be extra sympathy, but the U.S. military group is not necessarily so.

First of all, the United States has not been affected by the war. In terms of the general environment, the US military has not fought any tough battles, and now the United States is still trying to establish its image and gain a firm foothold in Europe.

shooting at mass refugees without weapons,

Once a large number of deaths are caused, although various reasons can be used to evade at that time, but now all kinds of sickles and hammers are being used in various European countries. Once the U.S. military shoots and causes a large number of deaths, the Soviet Union may simply forget that these people are Tito’s opponents. , It is said that the refugees let the US military take responsibility.

Or take a step back, this is an organized and premeditated subversion of Yugoslavia by the imperialist countries. Start the propaganda machine and attack the image of the United States.

There are pro-Soviet political parties in various European countries to cater to, which may really embarrass the Americans. Even if all of the above scenarios do not come to pass, there is one last factor. General Patton did not go to Berlin as in history. Eisenhower went to Berlin himself, and General Patton was in Bavaria.

All kinds of internal and external factors were added together, and after arriving in Europe, it was discovered that Austria was divided into four countries in name, but in fact it was tantamount to the Soviet Union’s monopoly. After the British occupied area only had two battalions of soldiers, Alan Wilson saw the loophole, and then entered the Inadvertently, Mikhailovich pointed out a clear path.

"That's it!" Mikhailovich on this side has already made up his mind, "According to my information, General Patton is extremely dissatisfied with the Soviet Union. His attitude is very important when we are running towards freedom this time. Maybe there will be a third attack." World War I, when the time comes, we can still follow the U.S. military, fight back to Yugoslavia and regain everything we lost, and then we will solve the problem with the Croats, but now, facing Tito, we are in the same situation as the nearby Croats, Don't get angry just yet."

Alan Wilson is here, maybe he will exclaim that Mikhailovich still has the potential of Chang Gong, complaining about the sky, complaining about the air, complaining about the Soviet revisionism and complaining about the US emperor's temperament, they are all so similar. Three world wars?

However, Mikhailovich's words are indeed a shot in the arm for the commanders of the Homeland Army who have lost their homes and are like bereaved dogs.

In the camp of the Homeland Army group, the commanders of the Homeland Army who had returned from Mikhailovich issued unexplained orders to their subordinates one after another. It seems to be very clear, but it is not clear if you think about it carefully.

In the peaceful camp, a slight ripple appeared on June 23rd. No one knows what kind of influence this ripple will cause. Mikhailovich’s gaze almost followed the sun. He hoped that The time for action could come soon, and hopefully never.

Mikhailovich was in high tension, his eyes were bloodshot but he was not tired. Whether he was dead or alive depended on the action at midnight. With the darkness falling, it seemed that today was another ordinary day.

It was approaching twelve o'clock, and the camp of the Yugoslav Homeland Army was full of restlessness like the surface of a calm lake boiling. The men, women and children who were called up by the soldiers of the Fatherland Army looked at the lit torches and did not understand what to do at midnight.

"Women and children, come out and follow us!" Some soldiers shouted, pushing women and children to the front and putting them into action.
