The active retreat of the U.S. Army allowed the German 1st Army to cross the Canso Strait without any worries. By December 16, the German 1st Army had all crossed the Canso Strait andnded on the Nova Scotia Penins.
Moreover, the German 10th Army also began tond. This made the U.S. military dare not act rashly even if it began to increase its troops to the Nova Scotia Penins. After all, if the German army is in a defensive position, its firepower advantage will be very obvious. If theyunch an attack without being fully prepared, they will only suffer greater losses.
In the early morning of December 17, a fleet of the German Navy entered the Northumbend Strait covering arge fleet. This strait is located between the Nova Scotia Penins and Prince Edward Ind.
Although the British army still deployed some troops on Prince Edward Ind, the British army also began to withdraw its troops from Prince Edward Ind as the war on the Nova Scotia penins became more and more unfavorable. Now, there are not many troops left on the ind. Many military facilities were also destroyed in previous German bombings. This made the German Navy not worry about being threatened after entering the Northumbend Strait.
At the same time, because arge number of sea search radars were destroyed, the US and British coalition forces failed to discover the fleet in time.
It was 7 o''clock in the morning, and the sky was still gray. Thousands ofnding craft suddenly appeared on the sea. Thesending craft are densely packed, almost covering the entire sea area. Thending craft elerated towards the beach.
In the sky above thesending craft, there are hundreds of helicopters. These helicopters are all armed helicopters with rocketunchers attached. They will be responsible for providing fire support to thending Marines.
At the same time, the main guns of the German Navy''s warships on the sea have also raised their barrels, ready tounch shelling on the coast at any time.
At the airfield of the German Air Force in Newfounnd and the aircraft carrier of the German Navy, fighter jets and bombers have already begun to take off. They would provide air cover and support for the Germans'' capture of Port Elgin.
ording to the intelligence previously obtained by the German army, the US and British coalition forces did not leave many troops in Port Elgin. In other words, because of the intensification of the fighting on the Nova Scotia penins, the attention of the US and British coalition forces has been attracted, so that they did not care about this port.
On the other hand, it is probably that this port is located in the Northumbend Strait, which can be regarded aspletely under their control. The US and British allied forces did not expect that the German army would be so bold that they would directly enter the strait andunch an attack on this port.
When the defenders of the US-British coalition forces stationed in Port Elgin discovered that arge number ofnding craft were about to rush onto the beach, and arge number of helicopters appeared in the sky, it was already toote.
Although they issued an rm immediately, the American and British coalition forces stationed here were ready to fight. But it was only an infantry brigade of the British Army who stayed here. With more than 3,000 people in the brigade, how could it be possible to deal with a marine division of the German army? Especially the Marine Division with strong fire support.
"Shhhhhh!"
Hundreds of armed helicopters flew to the beach first and rained bullets on the British positions.
Rockets roared past one after another, and the position of the British army waspletely covered by a sea of ??mes. Arge number of fortifications were destroyed in the explosion.
Some British troops tried to fight back, but to no avail, they were killed by German armed helicopters with powerful firepower.
When more and morending craft washed up on the beach, the heavily armed German marines began to join the battle. Thisnding battle can alreadye to an end with the victory of the German army.
"Boom!"
A heavy aerial bomb weighing 500 kilograms hit a stubbornly resisting position of the British army. A violent explosion sounded, leaving a huge crater on the ground. Many British soldiers were torn to pieces, and the firepower points were also blown up. More British soldiers were so frightened that they turned around and fled the position.
The German Marine Corps'' attack on Port Elgin went very smoothly. In just half an hour, an infantry brigade of the British army stationed here was defeated. Even, they didn''t even have time to blow up the port.
At 8 o''clock in the morning, before the sun jumped out of the horizon, Port Elgin had already fallen into the hands of the German army. The heavy equipment of the 3rd Division of the German Marine Corps began to disembark quickly using the facilities in the port. The entire 3rd Division of the Marine Corps needs to improve the defense here as soon as possible to prevent the counterattack of the US and British coalition forces.
At the same time, the 4th Armored Division, 31st Mechanized Infantry Division, 32nd Mechanized Infantry Division, and arge number of follow-up infantrymen of the German Army''s 4th Army, which had been waiting at sea, also began to disembark one after another.
The German army must not only upy Port Elgin, but also advance 20 kilometers south to upy Sackville. Only in this way can theypletely encircle the American and British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia penins.
In fact, the 3rd Division of the German Marine Corps has already begun to attack. After their amphibious tank battalionnded, they led a regiment to advance south along the road.
The U.S. and British coalition forces also did not deploy any troops on the front line from Sackville to Port Elgin. This made the German attack almost like entering no man''snd.
At 9 o''clock in the morning, the German army had alreadyunched an attack on Sackville. The troops stationed here are only an infantry battalion of the British Army. Also, theyck heavy weapons, especially anti-tank weapons.
Even if the performance of the German amphibious tanks is not very good. But dealing with these British troops without anti-tank weapons is still easy.
After arge number of British soldiers saw the German tanks charging, they were frightened.
Some British soldiers decisively put down their weapons and surrendered to the Germans. Many British soldiers left their positions and fled to New Brunswick. No one fled to Nova Scotia. Perhaps they also knew that after Sackville also fell into the hands of the German army, the Nova Scotia penins had fallen into the siege of the German army. The hundreds of thousands of American and British coalition forces on the penins have be the pinnacles of the Germans. The end result will be obvious. If they fled there, they would be waiting to die.
After the German army captured Port Elgin and Sackville, arge number of troopsnded from Port Elgin. Then start to build the defense line and prepare toplete the encirclement. Completely surround the US and British coalition forces on the Nova Scotia Penins, and then annihte them. In order to gain an advantage on the battlefield in the northeast of the North American continent, prepare for the next battle.
