Redemption of WWII

Chapter 66 will become famous

Rommel was so stimulated by the "good news" that he almost burst into tears, and he felt a little like "suddenly hearing that the world had subdued a tiger, and tears flew down like rain." 【】As long as the initiative is no longer in their own hands, as long as the British break through the paper-like defense line with not many people, they will never have anything to do with themselves again.

When the time comes, the British will be able to surround the troops of these two divisions directly when they go all the way south.At that time, if the troops of these two divisions resisted, they would be flanked by the British army back and forth, and the entire army might be wiped out.But if running, can human legs run over machine wheels?Rommel was very skeptical about this.

The armored divisions of the British army were not given for nothing, and they would definitely chase after the two German divisions and beat them up, and the troops would probably be scattered on the Gobi.Without supplies and fresh water, the fate of the officers and soldiers waiting for these two divisions is probably worse than death.

But if the British would really do that, Rommel expressed doubts.In that case, he would lose at most 2 infantry divisions.As long as he recalls the armored troops in front, it will not be a problem to deal with the British armored division.

But what if the British do not go south after breaking through the defense line, what if they go directly to attack the German supply line behind the defense line.Thinking of the scene where his four armored divisions had no fuel and were all captured by the British, thinking of the scene of 10,000+ troops crossing the Sahara desert on foot and retreating to Tunisia, thinking of the scene of the entire African Army being destroyed, Rommel couldn't help but The blood can feel the coolness.

Thinking of this, Rommel couldn't help scolding Andre in his heart, and said in his heart, "mlgb, if you hadn't run around like a young man, would I have sent all the mobile troops to rescue you? If I had an armored division in my hand, I would use it Make this difficult."

When Rommel resented Liu Qi, he forgot that most of his armored divisions were bought by his parents.If there is no Andri.Their parents are too lazy to care about Rommel's life and death. Even if Germany is defeated, they can still make a lot of money in another place, and there is no need to pay for Rommel for you.

People are like this sometimes. When they borrow money, they act like a grandson and talk a lot.But when it came time to pay back the money, his face changed. He didn't mention how much he helped you at the beginning, but it seemed that he owed him money.This is called turning your face and denying others.

Of course, Andrei's father and mother Rommel really can't afford it.If you want to change someone else, Rommel has already recalled the armored troops from the front line, and it's up to you.

Now Rommel has nothing to do. The 90th Infantry Division came tens of kilometers away just now, and they can't be driven back.If the British didn't need to fight that way, the 90th Infantry Division would have collapsed by itself, and it would have collapsed from exhaustion.Maybe it can also leave the officers and soldiers of the 90th Division with mental illness that even marches in nightmares.

Rommel now only has the Italian troops and the 40 'Tiger' tanks, although Rommel looked down on the 'Tiger' tanks as much as he looked down on the Italian army.But now only these two things are still usable.

Rommel had no choice but to issue two orders.The telegram was sent directly to the headquarters of the northern Italian army and the 501st battalion of the 'Tiger' tank, which was undergoing test runs at the northernmost point of the defense line.

Not to mention how Italian troops and 'Tiger' tank units went to reinforce the German 90th Infantry Division, which was in danger in the north.Let's just talk about 'Brian', the supreme commander of the British Seventh Armored Division.

Since dawn received a call from the [-]th Armored Division in the South to start an attack. 'Brian' ordered the officers and soldiers of the whole division to make final preparations before the battle.

The Seventh Armored Division of 'Brian' is quite well concealed at night, and the whole division is under collective blackout.Everyone was ordered to sleep. Except for a small number of border personnel, the officers and soldiers of the whole division had a good night's sleep.The fighting and marching these past few days have been quite strenuous. After eating the rations they carried, the officers and soldiers of the whole division fell asleep directly.No one has the energy to do something else.Everyone in the division consciously did not make any noise.Even officers and soldiers who snore will be woken up by others, and they will sleep again in a different position.

The purpose of this is to avoid being discovered by the German reconnaissance forces, so as to expose the position of the armored division.Sure enough, on a moonless night, the more than 1 horsemen of the [-]th Panzer Division were not discovered by the German squad.

As soon as I fell asleep, I fell asleep until dawn, and the officers and soldiers of the entire Seventh Armored Division were full of energy from top to bottom.At this time, 'Brian' did not order the troops to gather and set off, but ordered the quartermaster to directly distribute the medicine and fuel they carried.Then order the troops to overhaul tanks and weapons in situ.As the saying goes, "Grind your guns before the battle, and you will be happy when you are unhappy."

After everything was finished, 'Brian' ordered the meal. This time it was not dry food and canned food.It's a heating furnace that was temporarily modified with an empty gasoline barrel, but the food is still the broth made from canned meat with some water, and some dried vegetables and the like.Immediately to attack 'Brian' is not afraid to expose their position.In addition, if gasoline is used as fuel, there will be no thick smoke, and the chance of being discovered is not particularly high.

The officers and soldiers of the [-]th Armored Division, who hadn't had hot meals for several days, really ate very delicious food.Everyone ate several servings of food. Although there was a pungent gasoline smell in the food, the officers and soldiers of the [-]th Armored Division still ate hungrily. They hadn't eaten hot food for nearly three days. No matter who saw this None of the 'deliciousness' was spared.After a big meal, not only the energy of the officers and soldiers has been restored, but their physical strength has also greatly increased.

The purpose of the British Seventh Armored Division 'Brian' in doing this was to wait for the German troops to be attracted by the feint attack of the Tenth Armored Division, so that they could take advantage of the opportunity to enter.The second is that it will soon reach the German defense line.Although 'Brian' is not worried about whether his powerful tank formation can break through the German defense line, because it is a lice on the bald man's head, it is obvious.But if he could lose a little less power, 'Brian' would still be willing to lose a little less power.These troops are all won over by themselves.If they are all lost on the German defense line, what else can they use to beat Tobruk.

As for the life and death of Alexander of the Tenth Division, use the words of 'Brian'. 'Everything is predestined, one drink and one peck, is it predestined. 'The scene where Alexander humiliated 'Brian' in front of everyone. 'Brian' didn't forget at all, and now it's finally time for revenge, and he took advantage of the opportunity to hit the Germans, and he can still get more credit than glory.Such a thing that kills three birds with one stone, 'Brian' felt comfortable thinking about it.I ate a little more than usual when I ate.

'Brian' also issued an order to the communication chief of his subordinates. For the sake of confidentiality, the wires of each subordinate unit must remain silent.Anyone who disobeyed the order would be dismissed on the spot and handed over to a military court for the crime of leaking secrets. 'Brian' is very popular among his subordinates, and everyone loves this officer who looks as kind as his uncle. Of course 'Brian' will not disobey the orders given by him.

In this way, even if the microwave radio under 'Brian' heard the call from the Tenth Division, no one would answer. 'Brian' also didn't want his subordinates to know that he used the Tenth Armored Division to attract the attention of the enemy.But he went to attack Tobruk, who could make him a 'hero', and he didn't go to rescue the friendly troops at all.

In that case, Alexander of the [-]th Armored Division may know his intentions in advance, and this guy will work hard when the time comes.The Germans on the opposite side may not deploy troops.

The second is that 'Brian' doesn't want his subordinates to know the true meaning of this matter, which will make him lose his prestige among his subordinates.If people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead soldiers.

However, there is a certain distance between the microwave and the radio. As long as you cross the German defense line, you will never hear the nonsense of Alexander of the Tenth Division again.When the time comes, as long as Tobruk is occupied, people will not blame the heroes who have won the battle.At that time, no matter how many excuses Alexander made against himself, others would not and would not listen to them.

Although 'Brian' restricted the use of microwave radios by his subordinates, he himself has been guarding the side of the radio.Not to mention whether Alexander's courage is really comparable to that of ordinary people. As soon as the sky dawned, he commanded his men to start the attack on the German defense line.When 'Brian' heard that Alexander was fighting the Germans on the defensive line with all his tanks and most of his infantry. 'Brian' smiled happily.

'Brian' knew his chance had come and faced his own reinforcements of Alexander's 50 'Sherman M4' tanks.The German army on the southern border defense line will definitely not be easy. As for the suspicious tactics that he asked Alexander to use armored vehicles to create.Ten out of ten Germans were also fooled, and now it is how their own armored divisions can quickly defeat the defenders on the German defense line.If the Germans insisted on not being fooled, 'Brian' firmly believed that it would not be very difficult to fight over with the rapid assault ability of his [-]th Armored Division.

The arrow is already on the string and has to be fired.But 'Brian' still has a bit of a heartache about using his 50 new 'Sherman m4's as bait.

But there is another old saying, "If you can't bear children, you can't catch wolves."I can't bear my daughter-in-law, but I can't hold a hooligan. 'It's not easy to become famous without paying a price.To be ruthless to your enemies, you must be more ruthless to your own people than to your enemies.Once a general is successful, there are only famous generals since ancient times, and I have never heard of famous soldiers.

'Brian' immediately issued an order, and within 20 minutes each tank was formed into battalion-level units.The infantry took cover with armored vehicles.Throw away all unnecessary munitions.Carrying only 4 days of rations and fresh water, enough medicine and fuel, they marched towards the north of the German 'Fouquet' line of defense.
