: 0.077s Scan: 0.027sAfter discovering that the Germans did not resist, the coalition forces immediately judged that the Germans were preparing to retreat, otherwise they would not have left such a critical place alone!

The Germans’ retreat was great news for the coalition forces, at least for the Jakes!

Because Hans stayed in Bratis for one more day, the pressure on them would be greater.

Bratis can be said to be the richest and most prosperous area in Snowflake. If Hans occupied it for a long time, Jake would not be able to explain to the Snowflakes in the country!

So taking Bratis back as soon as possible was the biggest pursuit of the Jakes. They did not even ask to annihilate all the invading Germans. As long as the Germans could withdraw, that was enough!

So at this time, the Jakes were very enthusiastic about fighting. They wanted to take over Bratis as soon as possible and take it back! The enthusiasm of the Japanese and the Polish people in the coalition was also very high, because they saw the opportunity to pursue the Germans and beat the dogs when they were down.

Therefore, without any communication or negotiation, the armies of the three countries made the same choice: attack! The armies of the three countries began to cross the river almost at the same time, because Snowflake’s army had launched a river crossing operation before, so they left a large number of ferries and even several floating bridges.

With these equipment, it was much easier for the subsequent army to cross the river, and the speed was much faster!

In less than half an hour, more than 50,000 of them crossed the Danube and entered the southern bank of the Danube.

Just as they gathered their forces and prepared to pursue the German hinterland, the German army, which had been silent, suddenly launched a fierce attack on them!

Boom boom boom!

The shells fell like raindrops, and every shell that landed on the beach could blow up a large number of coalition soldiers!

The coalition forces were directly stunned by the German artillery bombardment. They had no idea that the German army not only did not leave, but was also waiting for them, waiting for them to take the bait!

Da da da!

The German soldiers suddenly emerged from the empty trenches like ghosts, holding guns and cannons, and began to launch a fierce attack on the Allied forces on the beachhead!

“Oh no, it’s a trick!”

After the German army suddenly launched an attack on them, the coalition forces finally reacted!

They were tricked!

As expected, the 100,000 men of Snowflake, who were their own people before, had now surrounded their flanks and cut off their retreat. The 50,000 men who landed on the shore had become trapped!

“”Jake, isn’t that your army? Why are they standing on the enemy’s side and helping us?”

The British and Polish people were very angry. After seeing the Snowfak army’s counterattack, they all took out their anger on the Jeke people! The Jeke people were also confused at this time. What was going on?

The Snowfak people didn’t help them deal with the Germans, so why did they turn around and help the Germans deal with themselves?

Could it be that they were going to revolt on the battlefield?

The Jeke people guessed right, because the Snowfak on the opposite side directly raised their own flag!

“They want independence!”

The Czechs were terrified and no longer cared about the lives of the tens of thousands of their own troops on the other side of the Danube, because the news of the Snowflakes’ treason and independence made them worry that their own country was about to change!

The 50,000 coalition forces on the beachhead were quickly wiped out under the fierce attack of the German army and the cooperation of Snowflake’s 100,000 troops!

Because the previous”attack” of the Snowflake troops was too smooth, they did not establish a beachhead at all, and the coalition forces, who were not vigilant enough, did not expect the Snowflakes to rebel, so after they reached the south bank of the Danube, they did not establish a beachhead.

After all, in their eyes, the German positions were almost within their reach. Since this was the case If so, wouldn’t it be better to attack the German positions directly, take them down and use them for our own benefit?

Unexpectedly, they miscalculated!

Not only did they fail to seize the German positions, but because of their own negligence, they had no cover at all on the open beach!

The allied soldiers, completely exposed outside, fell down in large numbers under the intensive machine gun fire of the Germans, like wheat being harvested!

The German artillery fire had already sunk the pontoon bridges and ferries on the Danube River, which resulted in the allied forces on the other side of the river having an advantage in numbers, but they could not bring into play their advantage in strength. They could only look at each other across the river, watching and worrying on the other side of the river, but they could do nothing!

“We must take down Bradis and avenge our people!”

After losing 50,000 troops at once, the coalition forces were almost all out of their minds!

So they were furious and planned to launch a frontal assault on Bradis at all costs!

But just as they were rushing towards Bradis, they found that the German positions outside the city of Bradis were empty!

“Could this be another trap?”

The coalition forces, which had just suffered a loss, began to become cautious this time, and even a little timid.

Looking at the city of Bratis with the gates opened, the coalition forces did not dare to enter the city for a while.

Because they always felt that the German army must have some conspiracy, otherwise they would not give up the defense outside the city so carelessly.

However, if Hans had any conspiracy, they could not think of it at all!

Even if Hans wanted to fight a street battle with them, they could completely fight the German army with their numerical advantage!

At most, it would become a war of attrition, and in the end of the war of attrition, they would definitely win with their numerical advantage!

So after thinking about it and making sure there was no threat, the coalition forces finally decided to enter Bratis!

The coalition forces entered Bratis cautiously and spent several hours checking the entire city inside and out. After confirming that there was no one in the city, they realized: the German army seemed to have really given up the city!

“Oh no, the Germans are going to escape!”

The coalition forces immediately realized that the Germans had abandoned the city of Bratislava, and they must be preparing to run away!

Although they had been deceived by the empty German positions when they were fighting across the river before, they thought that the Germans were going to run away. As a result, in order to pursue the fleeing Germans, they rashly sent 50,000 troops across the river, but they were fooled by the Germans and directly ruined the 50,000 troops!

At this time, they realized that it was definitely impossible to fake it this time. Bratislava was very close to Hans’s homeland, less than 5 kilometers away from Odili. After crossing the Danube, the Germans could enter Odili with just a lift!

So, they must have run away!

“Chase them, we must not let them get away so easily!”

The coalition forces could not swallow this breath at all. They had been fighting the German army for almost a month, and more than 100,000 people were killed by the German army. They just lost 50,000 troops in one breath!

The German army took such a big advantage, and they suffered such a big loss. How could they let the German army escape so easily?

If they let the German army run away like this, wouldn’t the price they paid before be in vain?

For the British, they basically didn’t win any battles after they sent out this time. Not only did they suffer heavy losses, but they also embarrassed themselves in front of a group of younger brothers, which greatly damaged their dignity as the world hegemon. So they must find an opportunity to avenge Hans and beat back their prestige. In this way, they can continue to intimidate their younger brothers!

And for Jake, if Snowfak hadn’t turned against him and established an independent country, then the German army would have retreated and returned to their homeland at this time. This would be acceptable to Jake!

However, all this changed after the Snowfak people rebelled and declared independence!

And it was a revolutionary change!

If he If we are not mistaken, the person who planned the defection of the Snowfak army and instigated them to establish an independent country should be in this German army!

If these guys are allowed to escape, Jake may no longer be able to control Snowfak, and they may lose this large piece of land in the south, and can only shrink back to their own homeland, becoming a small country with a population of less than 10 million!

What’s more serious is that if they allow the Snowfak people to be independent without taking any action, then the Hans in the Sudetenland and the Polish people in the Cheshin area may follow the example of the Snowfak people and establish an independent country, or introduce external forces from other countries to interfere in the internal affairs of Jake!

This situation is almost fatal to Jake, so they must nip this danger in the bud before things get out of control!

So, the coalition forces began to pursue at all costs!

And as they chased, they unknowingly crossed the border between Jake and Audili and entered the territory of Hans!

And this opportunity, Mainz has been waiting for a long time! On
