- As Germany invades France and the Benelux countries in May 1940, the main bulk of their panzers are heading towards the Ardennes and the Meuse River in an effort to cut the Allied forces in half. However, two small units of Belgian infantry are standing in their way. They are the Chasseurs Ardennais and have one objective: To delay the Germans by every means necessary...

Today we again turn towards the Second World War - to be more specific the 1940 German invasion of France and the Benelux. Here two small Belgian units bravely attempted to delay the advance of the Wehrmacht. We hope you all appreciate this video! And much like the Chasseur Ardennais supported the war effort of the Belgians, our awesome Patrons support the war effort of us, the Sabaton History team! So if you haven't, you most certainly should consider supporting us on www.patreon.com/sabatonhistory.
Oh and if you're interested in World War Two, you should definitely check out Indy's World War Two Channel (ua-cam.com/users/worldwartwo) where he covers WW2 Week-by-week. Last May, he covered the invasion of the Benelux and France, which you can check out right here: ua-cam.com/video/DLN8NHXiMy0/v-deo.html
Cheers, the Sabaton History team!
Finally!!! Thank you Sabaton!!! Thank you!!!
Maybe Sabaton should write a song about The Battle of Halen in 1914. There, the Belgian crushed the German cavalry. Contrary to the usual tactic, namely charging the cavalry on horseback, the Belgians dismounted and held back about 15 charges with rifle fire.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Halen
You are missing a couple of details that make this even more dramatic/amazing...
Among the panzer divisions being delayed was the 7th Panzer Division (which, of course we know as the Ghost Division), which was still being led by Rommel (Ghost Division v Resist and Bite). As this song (and this episode) tell that they finally had to surrender and the Germans were realizing that this had been a tiny force. They were shocked, after all, because < 100 men had held back the entire German forces. Rommel was well known for being at the front instead of directing from the rear of his troops, he saw first hand the bravery and tenacity of the Belgians. He complimented them on their accomplishments: "They are not men; they are green wolves."
The story beneath the lyrics mention this detail. I'm surprised that Indy didn't mention that among the rest of the praise being handed out to the Belgians and their amazing stand...
My world favourite song is resist and bite
I realized that I'm one of the only people who thinks this is the best song ever. That's probably because me being Belgian is making me biased. Lol.
"The Belgian defenders were hitting the Germans were it hurt them the most: they were messing with their timetable"
All germans across time and space are feeling that
Reminds me of that rabbit from Alice in wonderland LOL.
Yes, we do not like to arrive even a bit before or after an appointment, even if it is with the french.
Yeah, hurting the time tables hurts germans on a deep personal level

Germans in 14: going through Ardennes

in 44: same
Entente: :0
They didn't really go through the Ardennes in 1914, they swept through Belgium and even for the WW1 army, the Ardennes weren't really a good place to pass through. And dismissing the idea that Panzers might go through the Ardennes, cross the Meuse and overrun the French at the Maginot Line wasn't that stupid and can only really be criticized with the benefit of hindsight. If the Allies had immediately sent their air forces to the Ardennes when they noticed what was up, the germans would have suffered heavy casualties. The problem wasn't the defense plan, the problem was the inaction and general sluggishness of the Allied Command.
This is very similar to the Attack on Pearl Harbor. The US government and most admirals didn't think anybody could attack it. How would that even be possible? Well, as I live in the future, I know. But the people making the decision back then didn't.
This song is so packed with amazing lines, but I think this one is the best:
"But when captured by the Axis
And forced to tell the truth
We'll tell it with a smile,
We will surprise them with a laugh"
Bad. Ass.
What makes it even more badass is the reason they laughed. Basically, after the capture of the Chasseurs Ardennais, they began asking "Where are the others?" repeatedly, hence the "We are all" that follows in the song.
Believing to be facing a regiment, the Germans had mobilized 3000 men against a reduced company (two platoons)...
Overall, the efficacy of the Chasseurs Ardennais led Rommel to say "These are not men but green wolves"

"noone would expect them" - Except the French generals that literally said "this is a possible thing we should watch out for" that got told to shut the hell up xD
Reminds me of another phrase: "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
"Les Allemands, zey 'ave come through ze Ardennes. Who could 'ave possibly foreseen this?"
particularly gallic bertstare.jpg
I feel like those Generals simply looked at their fellow generals and said 'I told you so"
It’s like the reverse of THE SOFT UNDERBELLY line.
@@xanpenguin754 Eh less so because all of those generals were frontline officers, with a single exception they died in the fighting during the battle for France or shortly afterwards in german captivity as prisoners of war.
I know a fantastic war story. I will name this story "The attack of the Belgian Baron". It's the story of a soldier of the Belgian army during the Second World War, Belgian army who lost the war. The name of the soldier is Jean de Selys Longchamp and he is a little bit edgy by the capitulation of Belgium. So, he arrives in England after a long journey around Europe.
There, he becomes a great aviator with the grade of Captain. But, a day where he is back of a mission, he decides to attack the building of the Gestapo in Brussels. Like a car, he goes back the large avenue and destroys all the floors of the buildings, kills a lot of nazi's officiers and explodes the cannon on the roof of the building. Now, in front of the ancient Gestapo's building, you can see a statue of this hero ! After this feat, he has been degraded but he received a medal at the same time! (My English is probably imperfect, my native language is French, I'm a Belgian!)
Absolutely grand my friend. Greetings from another Sabaton and history fan from the other side of the world. I'm from Pakistan.
@@AbdulBasit-vd8dd Well, greetings to Pakistan from Belgium!
Thank you for your story, my friend. Your English is quite good.
@@MsMutt1 Thank you ! It's good to know I'm getting better!
Covered by the great Mark Felton who I heard it from and hope someday collaborates with timeghost. A story indeed. Greetings from the USA.
We were told to hold the border
And that is what we did
Honored were our orders
In despite of our foe
This is my absolute favorite quote from a sabaton song, such an epic part in a already epic song
Often the greatest act, the most honorable behavior, is to obey, and to hold the line against your foe. It is often the most difficult, as well. It takes character.
My least favorite line is "In despite of our foe". It hurts me.
"But when capture by the axis
And forced to tell the truth
We will tell it with a smile
We will surprise them with a laugh
WE ARE ALL"
that and "we were all"
“And the Belgian defenders were hitting them where it hurt them the most - they were messing with their timetables” - best sentence in Sabaton History ever 😂
Luxemburg: Exists
1940 Nazi Germany: Excuse me, oh pardon me, just gotta get through here...
That's what a Brit would say. A German would be more like "Watch it I'm walking here."
Altrantis That’s an American
Hippity hoppity, you're now my property(?)
@@kingdraconias Can confirm. A phrase of the New York dialect.
@@kingdraconias I'm fairly sure Europeans would back me up on this one. Germans are generally rude and they don't greet or apologize, much more so than Americans. At least it is the case with Bavarians.
Never been more proud of being a Belgian when I heard this song. This is one of the best stories of World War Two and those guys kept the Whermacht, the then most advanced army at bay for nearly three weeks and with just forty men. Those guys had balls of steel. And their legacy will not be forgotten how they laughed they were all.
It's great to hear my heroes sing about those heroes.
Fortune to the Brave Soldier. Resist and Bite.
Also, awesome you guys went to Graspop. I was front line last summer.
My greatest respekt dear Evert.Liebe grüsse Alex🤘
Never pin a belgian against a wall, we will fight dirty
@@Dutchtheairsofter That is true.
@Necroglobule Jep and stories get told by them over the world. Verzet en bijt.
Same here, Belgian and proud when I hear my favorite band singing songs for us.. Graspop last summer was my first festival ever and I was also standing in the front.. But then we got overwelmed by all the crowd surfers 😅 there were like 50 of them, coming every minute.. I tried to resist and bite, but the front fell and I had to retreat to the east where the drinking bars were.. Anyway, it was the best experience and I'm going to see them life again in Sportpaleis 😆
btw - those BAD boys got stranded in the same way as the Czechoslovak legion.. I loved the legion special Indy! TY
LINDYBEIGE!!!
AS THE GREAT WAR IS OOOOVER AND LOST
HE'S BEEN WOUNDED IN WAR; HE RETURNS WITH AWARDS
"Fight all 18 days of battles, no odds are on our side! Few will fight for all until the bullets are gone!" is probably one of my favorite lyrics from all of Sabaton.
Resist and Bite was the first Sabaton song I ever heard and immediately became one of my favorites, particularly because of the story behind it. It inspired me to look further into the band, and I've never regretted it.
Same Story :)
Another cool belgian war story : the Spartan king Leonidas moved to what is now Belgium after Thermopylae and opened his chocolate factory. Which is quite succesful to this day.
This made me laugh xD especially since I am Belgian.
Why let a good crusade get in the way of Belgian war stories right?
Belgians are direct descendants of Leonidas.
Too bad it doesn't taste that well
Bruh, chocolade van Leonidas is echt goed.
I wish Sabaton would make a Song about the christmas truce.
Baum Fan imagine they do that for Christmas
That's a funny idea. I would love to see them make one
Oh yes! Like a bonus for the release of the Great war album!
You can always suggest that song idea to them on their website, I think It would be interesting to see how Sabaton would approach that topic
They are the soccer elite
Born to compete
Get penalties
Old school soccer!
So, thanks to a thunderstorm, you guys became famous in Belgium.
Yep, and they'll continue to remind us whenever they play Graspop ;)
Forged in Valhalla by the hammer of Thor indeed.
Resist and Bite was the first Sabaton song I ever heard and I was immediately hooked. And to think it was in a guitar hero clone
Same.

Ok there Mr.Incredible
I'm a Belgian and my town (Geel) was one of the heaviest fights from the advance of the alies in 1945. There's a lot of Scottish and Canadian cemetery's and monuments in my small village. The battle is called "de slag om Ten Aard" in Flemish wich translates to "the battle of Ten Aard"
Ya know for all the shit we give you Belgium we still love you. Lots of love from your Northern neighbour
Groetjes!
@@SabatonHistory I do hope one day you guys make a song about Dutch military history one day tho. For example the Dutch stand at the Grebbeberg during WW2 or Naval heroes like Michiel de Ruyter or Piet Heyn
Yeah, but you also love peanutsauce on fries, so I'm not sure that's a good thing... 😁
Or a song about the 80 years war.
@@mokerdikkewasbever Would say our mighty Biking Divisions in World War 2 are more worthy
Groetjes
Glad to hear the story behind this song (after reading three books thanks to Heroes albums songs, I never looked this one up). No mention of Jokim and the third guitar though 😀. The little into to this song at the concerts where he pretends to just be learning by playing Smoke on the Water and gets blasted by a Throbbe solo always brings a smile to my face.
My favorite song. Thank you, Sabaton, for the song! And thank you, Indy, for the history lesson!
You're welcome!
This is one of my favorite Sabaton songs, and there's such a cool story behind it! Thanks again for all the hard work, I've been really sick and haven't really been able to leave the house so this definitely came out at the right time for me!
You're welcome - get well soon!
You guys just made a video about my great grand father ! My last name is Bricart and we actually go to bodange every year to remember the sacrifice of this company ! Now, thanks to you, people outside of our family and friends knows about him ! For that we deeply thank you for your work and we wish you the best ! Keep on on your hard work !
Love
One of Maurice Bricart great grandson !
Its an honor to meet you here! You are very welcome, and I would like to thank you as well for keeping his memory alive! Lest we forget!
If I ever develop an "intruder protocol" for my house, I think I want this song blasting as part of it
Scare the hell anyone who breaks in with that intro they have lmao
That would be perfect. The intruders would probably be scared off by the spirit of the Belgians
We were told to hold the border
and that what we did
If someone starts yelling at you in Latin, you RUN
@@thomasmcfaul875 but what if the intruder is from Belgium
When I heard this song for the first time, it immediately became one of my favorites. Later, when I read it was about Belgium, it - as a Belgian person - only became better. Keep up the good stuff guys!
Belgium here! The time I realised that the song was about the "Résiste et mords" from the Chasseur Ardennais, I had goosebump and still do every time I hear the song!
Was there in the Graspop this year, great show btw! :D
Our brave little neighbour, and one of my favorite songs!
Some love from the Netherlands

Resist and Bite never fails to give me chills down my back
My stepfather (Roland Mathieu 1916 - 2002) was an 'chasseur ardennais' in 1940. He survived the war with his brother after 5 years captivity in Germany. He was the most admirable man I have known in my entire life. Always ready to help, jovial and full of humor.
I miss this man and his loving wife, who was also an exceptional woman.
For heroes like him we write songs.
May his memory live on, not just through you, but through all those people he met. Even if his name is forgotten, his heroic efforts shall never be forgotten.
@@Springtrap11556 Thank you for your kind words. He loved to tell his war memories such as when he was transferred to a German factory (a carpentry) as a prisoner of war to work there where he sabotaged a production machine. When he was taken prisoner he had the intelligence to hide loaves of bread in his sleeves which saved his life and that of his brother 'André' whom he luckily found among the thousands of prisoners. They were hold in a field without food before transfer. His brother was in very bad condition, starving. The loaves of bread he had collected and hidden saved their lives. I also remember him saying that in a prison camp there was an old Austrian guard who cried about being separated from his wife and children. When he returned from the war, he found it difficult to find peaceful sleep. He told me about walking for hours at night in his village, insomniac. During the fighting in 1940, if I remember correctly, his captain, in a trench, was killed next to him by being shot in the head. He was lucky that day.
He loved gardening work, so in summer, when he took a break from gardening work, he would sit on a bench behind his house and when I was present I would sit near him and we would chat and he would tell me his memories. We had a good time together. God, how I miss this man.
Well with Belgium being the doormat of western Europe you could easily come up with enough war stories. And Sabaton being Sabaton, they could easily come up with some brilliant songs about them.
I thought that was poor old Poland ….
@@AbdulBasit-vd8dd Poland for the east and Belgium for the west.
The Germans shot themselves in the foot sooo much during World War II. Thank God they did. And thanks for doing one of these on one of my favorite songs!
13:42 if a band breaks through in Belgium, it has the potential to break through everywhere. Belgium has been the second country for some of the most famous metal and rock bands to make the step to international fame.
Thank you so much for featuring this story. In the US, there has been a debate about what this song means. Some thought it might be about the battle of the bulge, but this makes much more sense.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chasseurs_Ardennais
Sabaton History is the best teacher we have. Thank you Sabaton History
Man in America we don’t even learn a part of this.
Glad to hear about Belgium being the first country outside of Sweden where it took off, I remember those 2 gigs. From 3000 to like 30.000 from one year to the next. As for more Belgian war stories (not really Belgian but still), I would love a Sabaton song about the Battle of the Golden Spurs. Historically seen as one of the first (if not the first) changes in military history where infantry got the upper hand over cavalry.
14:09 Damn... Sabaton is blessed by Thor! No wonder other bands can't even come close!

As a proud Belgian and follower of Sabaton, I am incredibly proud and happy that Sabaton has such a connection with Belgium and that they wrote a song focused on a Belgian series of events and thank you so much for making such a great video about it, I found this a great and educational video
I am so glad i visited one of the first shows of Sabaton in my country (CZ)... you rocked the podium with Gamma Ray and Helloween (2007).. I kinda envy to Belgium they had the chance to host "your first" festival..)))))
I guess I need to rewatch Indy's "Allied clusterfuck" episode for the 94th time. Just in case.
Why not just the whole campaign?
Too drunk for now I guess. But you've got that point.
@@PiscatorLager Hell ja !!! 🤘🍻😎 !!!!
Liebe grüsse Alex 🤘
Piscator, ur here too.
I like ur lyrics videos
i really liked this video,
because; I love history,
it gives historical background to a song,
it shows that Belgium is/was better militarily that we could think -as a Belgian I really appreciated that-
and because it's very well eplained
PS: I think an album about Belgian battles from, for exemple the Belgian revolution or the battle of the Yser, could be good
but i think the name "Belgica" would be better than "Belgia"
Oh yes, finally! One of my most anticipated songs since this channel started. It really disproves the 'incompetent, easy-to-conquer Belgians' picture, isn't it? And, the song gives me so much energy, it's a constant part of my workout playlist. Whenever I hear it I'm like 'give me a sword or gun and enemy to defeat'. 😃
Holland was easy to conquer. The Germans knew from summer 1914 that Belgium is no cake walk.
This is what Sabaton does best keeping the stories of Soldiers alive so that their sacrifices can be remembered.
This video couldn’t come at a better moment: I’m sitting at the McDonald’s in the Scandinavium in Göteborg thinking about how the concert scheduled for the 14 of February is going to be
I hope you had a really good time
@@Masada1911 man it was great, best concert of my life 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Been waiting for this Sabaton history, one of my favorite songs. Thank you.
Resist and Bite is one of the best Sabaton songs, great video!
They should do one about the battle of the golden spurs. Similar story to that of bannockburn or one about the belgian king albert who stayed in the front lines during world war one or about the rape of belgium were a lot of city’s got burned down and last but not least the belgian army in exile during world war two
Omg finally! I've been looking forward to a video about this song for so long!
And now you got it!
We salute them Brave Belgian Soldiers
I've waited forever for this to finally be covered!
I love this song, it is the first one I listened from Sabaton and it always makes me feel better, it is one of my favorites.😍😍😍😍🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪Thank you very much!!!
One of my favorite songs, it good to type to, good beat.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff!!!
Great episode as always guys!
Just watched Sabaton live 5 days ago. These guys are awesome!
This was the song that finally hooked me on sabaton and look into what the song was about. They have since rocketed to my favorite band. Thanks for your work guys, and indy and the gang as well.
No problem! Thanks for the support!
Finally you made one this was my first sabaton song that I ever heard
Cheers for this history episode! This was the song that got me hooked on Sabaton's music in the first place. Downright electrifying song, and an amazing episode in the history of war.
Thanks!
This was the first sabaton song I ever heard. And I was INSTANTLY hooked. still my favorite!
Yes have been waiting for this one
Thank you for making it, makes the week bearable
No problem! Though we hope other things contributed to making the week bearable as well
Coming from Holland and visiting Graspop since 2002, I was at that show in 2007. It was my second Sabaton show, the first being in 2006 in Amsterdam when they opened for Dragonforce. At that point Sabaton was just one of those bands that I was just getting to know, but that Graspop show made me a fan. The tent was indeed packed and as soon as the show started I remember a lot of Swedish flags being raised in the crowd, which only added to the great atmosphere. As I said, I've been a fan ever since and I've seen all Sabaton shows at Graspop. I've seen a lot of Sabaton shows in Holland as well, but there's always a certain atmosphere at the Belgian shows and this song might have a lot to do with that. Another amazing story this one!
Thanks!
I've been waiting for this one
I so much love this channel!
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks guys. Been waiting for this one!
Cheers!
I always rewatch some episode i havent watched in a while, when i eat and there is no new ww2 video and i just now realised, that the marching 0:18 is perfectly synchronised with the drums of the song.....love it
HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS CHANNEL BEFORE???
THIS IS AWESOME
THANK YOU!
Truly a beautiful song, I love listening to it in my morning runs just right before them to get pump up, Thank you for a beautiful song and a history lesson, Cheers from the Lone Star state !!
Cheers from Sabaton History! (PS. I use Resist and Bite for workouts as well)
What are your 5 main songs for your workout pace that you would say ?!!
This song means a lot to me. I'm having to deal with a lot of pain now, in hospital. I am regularly obliterated by what has to be done to me. I tell myself to resist and bite.
I hope you're doing far better now then you were a year ago. Remember: We Will Resist And Bite!
Yessssss, I’ve been waiting for this! Idk why it didn’t show up in my sub box, but this is one of the most badass stories from WW2.
Cheers!
I'm thankful for the video BUT you guys just made it a week to late for my presentation, Still love you guys
Sorry....hope you can forgive us!
One of my favourite songs, the Chasseurs Ardennais are absolute mad lads and legends
Can't go through Belgian war history without mentioning the Battle of the Golden Spurs!
@Glenn Krenz Here's a really good one: /watch?v=P5ksuFG8YaY
Interesting ! I like your Running Wild t-shirt by the way,it's cool seeing you wearing this :).
I was introduced to Sabaton while listening to a Power Metal station via Pandora. This song played and I was instantly hooked! 🤘🏻
This song is an amazing tribute to the soldiers of Belgium, and how they (in particular the Chasseurs Ardennais) held the border and fought until the end. It makes me so proud to be of Flemish-Belgian origins. My Opa (grandfather) who fought for Belgium in the 9th Infantry Division--whenever I listen to this song I get teary-eyed and think of my Opa and what he and those he fought beside must have went through. Thank you Indy and thank you Sabaton for your tribute.
For heroes like him we create songs, Nick.
Happy Birthday Sabaton
i have been waiting for this one for a long time, a great early charismas present
And we got another one for you next week
"Belgian Armored Car Division, which is a bad name for a band"
Me looking at the last name on my new project title list that I hadn't crossed, out. "WELP"
These Sabaton guys are so down to earth and relatable.
Finally Resist and Bite! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Battle of the Silver Helmets, also know as the Battle of Halen. Heinz Guderian mentions it in 'Achtung Panzer' as the moment he realised the speed of cavalry is needed, but with more punch and armour.
The Battle of Halen/battle of the silver helmets was a battle where the German cavalry charged at Belgian lines, but were held off because of machine guns and hidden shooters.
The Battle of Turnhout (1789) was an important battle where they defeated the superior Austrian force. Using some smart defensive tactics to decisively beat them.
The Battle of The Golden Spurs was a Battle between the county of Flanders and France, the superior French knights were crushed by the Flemish defensive line with the famous Goedendag weapon.
So these are some cool Moments in Belgian history.
Vinkt, and Liege 1914 the Germans also got their teeth knocked in. They advanced in 19th century close lines and were decimated.
I get shivers when I hear that rift.
Resist and bite was the first sabaton song that i listened to.
It really got stuck in my head for a few days so i looked up more songs and the same thing happened again...
Tbh i think its resist and bite that made me like sabaton and metal in general. Though my tastes in metal have changed sabaton is (according to spotify ) the band i like the most ;)
Awesome! Thanks for being a fan! 🤘
One of my favourite songs
Thank you for doing a history episode about this song.
Our pleasure! Enjoy
YES! FINALLY! My one of my favorites gets a video ^_^
Awesome! This is a story that was completely new to me! No better thing than a movie and a song about something that teaches me something new from history
True! We're really glad you liked it - and hope to bring you some more interesting stories in the future!
Man this is one of my favorite sabaton song 👌
