Chapter 673 Evidence
The results of the expeditionary force were finally verified at dawn the next day... It should be said that this was due to Montgomery, because he was eager to expose the "Chinese scam", so he sent two reconnaissance planes to the Mahelama area for reconnaissance just after dawn.?? ?
Montgomery was confidently waiting for the pilot to give him a complete expose of evidence of Chinese lies, but the result was exactly the opposite...
"God, there are German tanks everywhere!" When the reconnaissance plane flew over Maherama, to be precise, it should be about ten miles from Maherama, he couldn't help but exclaim: "General, you can't imagine... I mean, there are tank wrecks everywhere!"
"Are you sure it's the wreckage of the German tank?" asked Montgomery.
"Of course!" the pilot replied: "That's the German tanks No. 2 and No. 3, mostly No. 3... I can even see the black cross on their tanks!"
"Describe it clearly!" Montgomery asked, "How many of them are there? Are there dozens?"
"No, general!" the pilot replied: "There are at least hundreds!"
"Hundreds?" Montgomery asked in disbelief: "Are you sure you read it right? The wreckage of hundreds of German tanks?"
"I'm sure, general!" the pilot replied: "I took them all, that's the evidence... What was born here? Did we win a big victory? Why didn't I hear any news?!"
Montgomery couldn't help but be speechless... The reason why the British army did not get this good news was because Montgomery had never believed that it was true.
Even Montgomery didn't believe it at this time.
Finally, it was not until the pilot returned and washed out the photos of the scene and handed them to Montgomery... These photos were taken continuously, and after some processing, they could be spliced into a complete picture. British officers could even accurately count the number of German tank wreckage from this picture, 127, while there were only nineteen wreckages of the "Sheerman" tank.
This is inconsistent with the twenty-one reported by the Chinese team, and two are missing.
After the on-site inspection, I found out that one of the two missing vehicles was collided with the German tank and burned to the darkness and was not recognized, while the other was lost in the darkness and melee and was far away from the battlefield and was not photographed. The tank finally had to stop due to mechanical failure. The tank crew chose to blow up the tank and fled back to Mahairama.
"General!" Ramsden said as he looked at the photos: "It seems that what the Chinese are saying is true. Not only do they not lie about the results of the war, but in fact, the results of the war are even greater than what they report!"
"How did they do it?" Montgomery had to admit the result of the battle in the face of facts.
Ramsden picked out a few photos from the photos and handed them to Montgomery, saying: "From the intelligence and these photos, the Chinese were playing tricks. They asked German tanks to surround them... and then took advantage of the darkness to make the German tanks into a ball, and they rushed out of the encirclement with the armor and firepower of the 'Sheerman' tank!"
Montgomery nodded and praised: "Well done, this almost wiped out one-third of the German tanks!"
