Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 394
Tobruk Fortress, the headquarters of the 8th Army of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
General Montgomery was smoking a cigar, as if to relieve the anger in his heart and calm down.
In this battle, the 8th Regiment suffered heavy losses. Especially after the orderly retreat evolved into a rout, many troops fled madly and were chased by the armored forces of the Third Reich, resulting in heavy losses.
According to current statistics, the entire 8th Army suffered losses of more than 150,000 people in this battle.
There are only more than 200,000 troops who can escape back to Tobruk.
Although, it seems like a lot. But General Montgomery knew very well that it was almost impossible to rely on these troops with low morale, fighting will and collapse to resist the attack of the Third Reich troops.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the order has been issued. Troops began repairing Tobruk's defenses. However, we lacked materials and not enough time. I'm afraidto too great an effect."Lieutenant General Allen reported.
General Montgomery nodded.
Tobruk is less than 200 kilometers away from Beida.
When the 8th Regiment of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets was unable to stop it, the armored forces of the Third Reich The speed of advancement can be reached in three to four days at most.
Of course, the speed of Caesar's Kingdom's army may be a little slower. But if they can gather a large number of trucks and armored vehicles to transport troops, they can also be mobilized quickly A group of troops rushed to Tobruk.
This is undoubtedly a great threat to the 8th Army of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
"Let each unit build a position as much as possible. We must resist the enemy's attack here. Otherwise, once this place cannot resist, the war will spread to the territory of the Pharaoh Kingdom. The 9th Army is being formed and it will take time. We must buy enough time for the 9th Army."General Montgomery said.
He has become very clear that it is impossible for them to win this war alone, or to resist the attack of the Third Reich. The only hope is to persist to the end of the 9th Army into an army. In this case, they can have a huge advantage in strength, and everything may turn around.
But if the Third Reich's army advances too fast, the 9th Army will invade before it is ready. If the Pharaohs continue to fight until the beginning of the war, the situation on the battlefield will be even more unfavorable to the Empire. If not, the power of the Empire in North Africa will be completely eradicated. Even, Even the Middle East will face threats. You don't need to think about it to know that the Fourth is coveting the oil in the Middle East. And the oil here has become the most valuable piece of equipment in the hands of the empire on which the sun never sets. Once it is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable
"Your Excellency Commander, the biggest problem we need to consider is that Brugg is located on the seaside, even if we desperately strengthen the defense here. Once the Caesar Empire dispatches naval warships and launches an artillery attack on Tobruk, we may not be able to resist it. The large-caliber naval gun was enough to level the entire Tobruk. Just like when we attacked Tobruk before, the heavy artillery of the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet provided us with huge support."Lieutenant General Allen reminded.
Admiral Montgomery's face suddenly turned very ugly, and he seemed to be aware of this problem.
There is no doubt that if the naval battleships of the Caesar Kingdom and the Third Reich fire wildly at Tobruk , the consequences will be very serious. By then, Tubruk will be turned into ruins under the attack of large-caliber heavy artillery.
And the troops of the Empire that the sun never sets on Tubruk will probably be torn apart. into pieces
"It seems that Tobruk cannot hold on either. Fifty thousand people were left in Tobruk, and the rest were withdrawn to the kingdom of Pharaoh!"Admiral Montgomery made the decision
"Your Excellency, Commander, if this happens, we won't be able to hold on for long in Tobruk."Lieutenant General Allen reminded
"I know. However, unless the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet can defeat the navies of the Kingdom of Caesar and the Third Reich. Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how many troops we gather here. Instead of doing this, the troops suffered heavy losses and only increased casualties. Might as well retreat further. Retreat to the Pharaoh's country to further lengthen the enemy's logistics supply line. In this case, we may still have a chance." said General Montgomery.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander! I hope the Mediterranean Fleet can defeat the navies of the Kingdom of Caesar and the Third Reich. Otherwise, we will be in a very disadvantageous situation on the North African battlefield."Lieutenant General Allen sighed.
Many cities in North Africa are almost all located on the coast.
These cities are within the range of the navy's large-caliber heavy artillery.
If the navy of the Kingdom of Caesar and the Third Reich cannot be defeated, the army alone will , it is impossible to hold it.
What's more, to cut off the logistics supply lines of the troops sent by the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar to North Africa, we must also rely on the navy.
This puts the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet under great pressure.At this moment, the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet is cruising in the eastern Mediterranean sea, looking for opportunities.
The main force of the Kingdom of Caesar’s navy came out. The two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers obtained by the Third Reich from the Kingdom of Gaul also left the military port and sailed in The Mediterranean Sea. Coupled with the air force of the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar, almost the entire central Mediterranean Sea was covered. Under such circumstances, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet also had to avoid the edge. The new commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, George Lieutenant Commander will be very clear,Entering the waters north of Libya is no different from seeking death.
Previously, the Mediterranean Fleet destroyed the Port of Sirte and was pursued by the Third Reich Air Force.
Hundreds of fighter planes swamped the Mediterranean fleet. A total of four battleships were sunk, leaving the Mediterranean fleet in ruins.
Even if the Royal Navy deployed two capital ships from the mainland for reinforcements, the strength of the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet would be greatly damaged. Now there are only four battleships and two aircraft carriers, and they dare not act rashly.
If you are not careful, they may be killed.
Of course, if it is far away from the threats of the Third Reich and the Kingdom of Caesar's air force, the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet has the courage to engage in a decisive battle with the Navy of the Kingdom of Caesar and even the Navy of the Third Reich. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
