Third Reich: I took over power

Tianzhu Peninsula, Delhi, Tianzhu Army Group Headquarters.

Marshal Rommel, deputy commander of Tianzhu Army Group, is reading the telegrams sent back by the units. There was a smile on his face, and he was obviously very satisfied with the performance of the frontline troops.

"Your Excellency, all the troops have broken through the Japanese defense line. The Japanese suffered considerable losses under our attack. Even the natives of Tianzhu successfully broke through the Japanese defense lines during the battle."General Alfred Gauss, chief of staff of the Army Group, reported.

Marshal Rommel nodded:"The Japanese don't seem to look very good. Their previous reputation was more like falsehood."

"Your Excellency, the Japanese are still very capable of fighting, and their soldiers are also very brave. It's just that their previous opponents were too weak. So much so that they think they are invincible. But now, after fighting against the Imperial Army, they realize how powerful the world's first-class army is!" said General Alfred Gauss.

"That's right! you are right. These Oriental people are indeed a little too far-sighted. It is precisely for this reason that they dare to provoke the empire. But this time, we have to teach them a lesson and let them know that they are no match for the empire!"Marshal Rommel said

"Yes, Your Excellency!"General Alfred Gauss nodded.

In the case where Marshal Brauchitsch only served as the nominal commander of the army group, the actual command of the entire army group was completely under the responsibility of Marshal Rommel.

Under the command of Marshal Rommel, the entire army group attacked very quickly. A large number of troops had begun to attack the intended target. Although the Japanese Southern Army was struggling to support itself, its losses were increasing. It seems that it will be unable to withstand the attack of the Third Reich Army. In the eastern city of Lucknow, Faizabad, the Tianzhu Front Army Headquarters under the Southern Army of the Eastern Army, Commander Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo and Chief of Staff Major General Naka Nagai Taro The two frowned tightly.

The news coming back from the front line made them both feel a deep crisis.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the current situation is very unfavorable for us! Both the 28th Army and the 33rd Army suffered heavy losses under the German attack. If the Germans continue to attack with such intensity, we may not be able to hold on any longer."Major General Taro Nakayaga said.

The 28th Army has three infantry divisions and some troops directly under the army, with a total strength of more than 90,000. The 33rd Army has two infantry divisions and some troops directly under the army, with a total strength of 60,000. The remaining people. These two armies have always been the fist troops of the Tianzhu Front Army. But now, they have suffered heavy losses from the Third Reich Army in defensive operations, which is miserable. This is undoubtedly a great loss for the entire Tianzhu Front Army. It was a huge blow.

In this time and space, due to the crazy expansion of the Japanese army, there is no longer a distinction between Class A divisions and other divisions. Each division has a standard two brigades and four infantry. The full-strength divisions of the regiment have a total strength of more than 28,000 people. This has greatly improved the offensive power of these Japanese infantry divisions.

On the battlefields of the Far East and Nanyang, they are invincible, and they are invincible in the Far East. The armies of various countries were in dire straits and suffered heavy losses, and they easily became the overlords of the entire Far East and Pacific regions.

But unfortunately, now facing the attack of the Third Reich Army, the situation is completely different. On the contrary, the Japanese were killed were suppressed and suffered heavy losses. Even the natives of Tianzhu, whom they regarded as rubbish, were able to launch a decent attack with the fire support of the Third Reich. Even though the combat effectiveness of these Tianzhu people was very poor, But there are so many of them! Even in hand-to-hand combat, if a few of these Tianzhu people fight one by one, there will still be no problem.

"The Germans attacking Lucknow and Cawnpore were just two armies, with a total strength of just over 300,000. The 28th Army and the 33rd Army combined totaled more than 150,000 people. They are still in the middle of a defensive operation. Can they not hold on for just one day?"Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo looked very ugly.

"Your Excellency, Commander, in addition to the Germans, a large number of Tianzhu natives also participated in the attack. Those Tianzhu natives number two to three million people!"Major General Taro Nakayaga reminded.

Originally, Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo did not pay attention to the natives of Tianzhu at all. In his opinion, even if there are two to three million natives of Tianzhu, in frontal combat, the Toyo Army's ten Tens of thousands of people were enough to defeat them.

But now, with the Third Reich Army responsible for the main offensive, these Tianzhu natives also performed very bravely in the battle. In other words, they were probably eager to join the Third Reich Army. Show yourself well in front of

"If that doesn't work, send the troops directly under the front army to the front line!" Lieutenant General Masami Kawabe said.

In addition to the 28th Army and the 33rd Army, among the troops under the Tianzhu Front, there are four infantry divisions and three independent mixed brigades, with a total strength of more than 100,000.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander. However, I still believe that our military strength alone may not be enough to withstand the German attack. Therefore, we should have requested reinforcements from the Confederate commander earlier. In this case, maybe we won’t be in a hurry."Major General Taro Nakayaga suggested.

Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo thought for a while, and finally nodded.

The entire Tianzhu Front Army has nearly 300,000 troops, which can be called a relatively powerful force among the troops under the Southern Army. If the company If they can't withstand the attack of the Third Reich Army, you can imagine the difficulty.

Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo also knows that if he asks for help so quickly, he will be ridiculed by other generals and even considered incompetent. Performance. However, for the sake of the war situation, he could not care so much.

If he could not withstand the attack of the Third Reich and the defense line was breached, that would be the most unacceptable.

Immediately, Lieutenant General Kawabe Shosan launched the Tianzhu Front Army As commander, he sent a telegram requesting assistance to the Southern Army Headquarters. At the same time, he also ordered four infantry divisions and three independent mixed brigades directly under the Tianzhu Front Army to rush to Lucknow and Kanpur, hoping to Resisted the attack of the Third Reich Army and held out until reinforcements arrived.
