Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2339 Anesthesia needles

Confiscating property is one of the privileges of the victor. The consequences of trying to hide are very dangerous. It is good enough not to pry your mouth and break your gold teeth. Allowing meaningful personal items such as wedding rings to be kept highlights the moral bottom line of the southern African army.

Rock didn't think about turning the southern African army into a civilized army that would never commit any crimes. It was simply impossible, and the army also needed to be motivated by profit in order to ensure sufficient aggressiveness.

Arnim and Messer were woefully underprepared for the Allied attack.

With reference to the performance of the British army, even if the southern African army is a little stronger than the British army, it will not be much stronger. From the perspective of Arnim and Messer, even if the German and Italian troops cannot be defeated, they will not be defeated so quickly.

The consequences of choosing the wrong reference object are very serious. The combat effectiveness of the southern African army is far from that of the British army. In just one day, the Allied forces broke through the German and Italian defense lines in many places, and the attacked German and Italian troops quickly collapsed. .

Anim and Messi had no time to reorganize the defense line, and the entire front collapsed quickly.

On January 1th, Allied bombers carried out air strikes on Tunisia, and Tunisia's airports and ports, warehouses, barracks, and other military targets were damaged to varying degrees.

The airport was heavily bombed by Allied bombers, and the damage was particularly severe. All four runways were destroyed. The Allied forces used high-explosive bombs weighing more than 1000 pounds in the bombing. Many huge craters were blown out of the runway, and repairs were nowhere in sight.

The port was also severely damaged, and the fort protecting the port was taken care of. When the Allied forces bombed the fort, they used a newly developed ground-penetrating bomb, which could penetrate the concrete roof above the fort. Internal explosion.

A ground-penetrating bomb hit the ammunition depot of the turret, causing the ammunition to explode. After the violent explosion, the ammunition depot and the two nearby turrets all disappeared, and a cruiser and two destroyers docked in the port were also sunk. The connection between the Legion and mainland Italy was completely cut off.

While the Allied forces in North Africa made an all-out attack, the British government was not idle.

On January 1, the First Army under the command of Major General Kenneth Anderson arrived in North Africa to join the operation against the German-Italian forces in North Africa.

Anderson participated in World War I and was wounded in the Battle of the Somme. After the outbreak of World War II, he served as the commander of the 11th Brigade and joined the British Expeditionary Force to fight in France.

Before arriving in North Africa, Anderson served as the commander of the Second Army and also served as the commander of the eastern region. Instead of going to Egypt, he landed in Algiers and accepted the command of General Patton.

Anderson never forgot the humiliation of Dunkirk, and did not want to miss the final battle against the German-Italian coalition forces. After arriving in North Africa, he took the initiative to ask Patton to fight, and his attitude was very firm.

The strength of the British First Army is not impressive. It is composed entirely of British soldiers, including the Fifth Army and the Ninth Army. The heavy weapons such as artillery and tanks equipped by the troops are provided by southern Africa.

Taking into account the coordination of interests within the Allied Forces, Patton agreed to Anderson's request and handed over the task of attacking Tunisia to the First Army led by Anderson.

Anderson is very happy. Tunisia is located at the core of the German-Italian defense zone. The army guarding Tunisia is Italian. This is the best chance to wash away the shame.

Anderson must not have read the Volgograd battle report, otherwise Anderson would not have taken it lightly.

No matter how weak a country is, as long as it forms an army and appears on the battlefield, there are merits.

The Indians are still good at fighting with the wind.

Not to mention the amazing Italians in Russia.

The Italians have a characteristic, unless they are driven to a desperate situation, they will not burst into real combat effectiveness.

As long as the Italians have a chance of survival on the Russian battlefield, they cannot break out of the encirclement of the Russians.

Tunisia is the main port for the North African Army to obtain supplies, and it is also the only channel to contact Italy.

Although the Mediterranean Fleet and the Cyprus Squadron have blocked the Mediterranean Sea, as long as Tunisia is controlled by the German-Italian coalition forces, the North African Army has the opportunity to withdraw to Italy.

If Tunisia is occupied by the Allied forces, hope will be completely lost. For the Italians, this is another last stand.

The Italians never let people down, and once again broke out with amazing combat power in a desperate situation. Not only did the attack of the British First Army fail, but was counterattacked by the Italians. Not to mention the heavy losses, the Fifth Army was also captured by the Italians A large number of military supplies including oil were purchased.

"Anderson's preparations for the difficulties were seriously insufficient. The troops rushed forward lightly and were stubbornly sniped by the Italians. The Ninth Army was raided by the German armored forces. 260 of the 100 tanks were lost, and about 150 vehicles of military supplies were lost-I I have a question, the British came all the way to North Africa just to deliver supplies to the Italians?" Patton Jr. was speechless, it is now 1943, and the other allied forces have won, only the British army is still being beaten.

"Even if they get some military supplies, the Italians can't change the result. They have no way to retreat, and they can't fly." Eisenhower has a pattern and knows to save face for the British.

The First Army led by Anderson was composed entirely of British, unlike the Eighth Army led by Montgomery.

Even the Eighth Army, which is dominated by the Indian army, is making great strides, but the First Army, all composed of British, is struggling in Tunisia.

Now I can understand why Britain refuses to give up India anyway.

No one expected that India would become the only fig leaf for the British Empire.

"General, the Eighth Army led by General Montgomery has occupied Tripoli and is rapidly advancing towards Tunisia." Giro's adjutant sent the latest battle report, and Montgomery finally honored the British Empire.

"Marshal, the 17th Armored Division has arrived in Bourguiba and is ready to launch an attack on Tunisia at any time." Admiral Patton had just been promoted to Marshal by Rock, and Angie was also promoted at the same time.

Patton and An Qi are now the commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in North Africa and the Far East respectively. The rank of general is low, and there are a lot of marshals under him, which can't hold the field.

In southern Africa, only Rock's military rank was Marshal before, and the other Marshals were old and wandering, and they were seriously underrepresented.

With Barton and An Qi's qualifications, they have long been qualified to be promoted to marshal, which is not counterproductive.

"Then let's start, tell Liang Hao, I'm waiting for his good news." Barton didn't hesitate, he had already given the British a chance, and he couldn't blame others if he couldn't catch it.

Patton Jr. was depressed for a while. The Americans also had a chance, but they didn't seize it.

Southern Africans are not good at seizing opportunities, but never live up to trust.

Bourguiba is about 50 kilometers away from Tunisia, and the British First Army led by Anderson is resting in Bourguiba.

It was precisely because the 17th Armored Division arrived in time that they repelled the German-Italian coalition forces chasing Bourguiba. The British escaped, otherwise the loss would have been even worse.

Anderson didn't appreciate Liang Hao's life-saving grace. He even thought that the 17th Armored Division stole the victory that originally belonged to the First Army.

Bourguiba is a port, but it cannot dock large ships, and the city occupies a small area. The camps of the First Army and the 17th Armored Division are all on the outskirts of Bourguiba.

The First Army suffered heavy casualties, with about 5000 missing and nearly a thousand wounded, about 100 of whom were seriously injured.

Anderson was indeed ill-prepared. Although the British army imitated the southern African army to add field hospitals, their capabilities and equipment levels could not keep up. The number of doctors and nurses was not enough, so they had to ask the 17th Armored Division for support.

No, not a request.

Anderson asked the 17th Armored Division to provide medical assistance, not only doctors and nurses, but also medical supplies.

"Must, right away, anyway—why do these words sound so uncomfortable—" Anderson's telegram aroused Liang Hao's disgust.

To ask for support, you have to have a requesting attitude. To put it nicely, they are all allies, and Liang Hao will not stand by.

Even though southern Africa was once a British colony, it is now an independent country, and its strength far exceeds that of the British Empire. Britain has to rely on the help of southern Africa to counter the threat of Germany.

Not everyone can recognize the situation clearly, and some people's thinking is still stuck in 100 years ago, which is simply old fashioned.

"The British probably think that if they blow the whistle, we will run over to serve the noble British like the Indians—" Feng De, the commander of the 179th Armored Brigade, sneered, and let the tankers control it if they knew it If you speed up, you have to be an Italian to teach the British a lesson.

"Reply to General Anderson, our doctors and nurses are too busy to provide help." Liang Hao directly refused, taking care of the overall situation?

Take care of your sister!
How can the British ignore the overall situation and can't even speak? If Liang Hao agrees to Anderson's request, he will be a sword god.

The telegram was sent, and soon Anderson's phone call came.

"Hello——" Liang Hao asked the operator to take the call. After all, the operator was innocent, so he couldn't make things difficult for the operator.

"Liang, our wounded are waiting for treatment in the field hospital. What are your doctors and nurses doing?" Anderson asked in a bad tone.

"What are our doctors and nurses doing, and what does it have to do with you?" Liang Hao said in a harsh tone, please forgive the injured British soldiers, the responsibility lies with your commanders.

"Don't forget that we are allies. This is how you treat your allies? I reserve the right to pursue accountability—" Anderson threatened Liang Hao, and if he didn't send someone over, he would make a small report.

"Is this how you treat your saviors? The 17th Armored Division also suffered many injuries in previous battles, and is unable to provide help now." Liang Hao is not afraid to file a lawsuit, and he can take his time in the lawsuit.

"I'm sorry, I have a problem with my attitude, please help, for the sake of the families of those wounded soldiers—" Anderson finally softened up, and it's okay to say so earlier.

Poor Wuding Riverside Bone is still a spring boudoir dream.

Liang Hao isn't hard-hearted either, so it's for the sake of the families of the wounded soldiers.

An ambulance full of doctors and nurses roared into the field hospital. Before the car stopped, Robert, the chief doctor of the field hospital of the 17th Armored Division, couldn't wait to jump out of the car and join the ranks of rescuing the wounded.

Robert is a professor and surgical expert at the First Military Medical College in Southern Africa, known as Luo Yidao in the First Military Medical Hospital.

"Thank God, you're finally here—" the officer in charge of the field hospital greeted him with joy on his face.

"Where are the most dangerous wounded? Is the operating room ready?" Robert said rudely, time is life.

"Please go this way, there are too many wounded people to deal with, we need the attending doctor, medicine, plasma—" the officer took Robert to the operating room.

The conditions of the field hospital are not good. The operating room is a tent, which is definitely not up to the sterile standard. There are many stretchers parked at the door, the wounded soldiers are bleeding and crying, and the wounds are directly exposed to the air. None did.

There must be a lack of plasma.

Robert didn't waste any time, and went directly into the operating room. Lying on the operating table was a major with a chest injury, but the condition was not serious, and it was not fatal if it was not treated in time.

"Hans, you handle it—" Robert called a doctor to take over, turned around and walked out of the operating room. There were many wounded soldiers at the door, obviously more serious than the major.

"Mr. Robert, you are the chief doctor—" the officer guarding the tent door asked proactively.

Robert's name and identity are on the badge on his chest.

"Yes, the condition of the gentleman inside is not serious, and Hans can handle it." Robert had already begun to check the injury of a second lieutenant who had suffered serious abdominal injuries.

The second lieutenant was grateful, and the voice of "thank you" was weak.

"Don't talk, save your strength—" Robert was experienced, and he had already started asking the little nurse next to him for a scalpel.

"Doctor, Major Campbell is the nephew of Lord Alexander—" the officer took the initiative to introduce the identity of the major inside.

"Are you going to teach me how to do things? Stay away from me, don't interfere with my work—" Robert was rude, Major Campbell couldn't die, and if the second lieutenant didn't deal with it immediately, his life would be in danger at any time.

"Fuck, can you be gentle, damn it, you hurt me—" There was a sudden insult from the tent, and the voice was full of anger, and it was really impossible to die.

"Hans, come and be my assistant—" Robert called Hans out directly, such a noble boy would not serve him.

"I'm sorry, you're not allowed to leave. If you dare to leave, I'll shoot you to death." The major was impatient, and everyone died together.

Robert looked at the officer with anger in his eyes.

"Wait, Major Campbell, you can't do this." The officer rushed into the tent.

Bah!
Campbell really dared to shoot, but of course the muzzle of the gun was not aimed at Hans, and the bullet flew past Hans' thigh.

"I told you not to leave, or I'll shoot you to death." Campbell howled wildly, and the officer was dumbfounded.

"Okay, I'm not leaving. You put the gun down first, otherwise I'm afraid it might go off." Hans was very calm, and opened the medicine box to get the medicine.

"Okay, I put the gun down, you operate on me, I'll thank you—" Campbell didn't want to die either.

"This is a painkiller injection, which can reduce your pain—" Hans stuck a needle in Campbell's neck.

"The nest grass really hurts—" Campbell didn't know Chinese characters, and what Hans took out was not a painkiller needle, but an anesthesia needle.
