Third Reich: I took over power

On December 9, 1939, the North African Army of the Third Reich began to attack the Tobruk Fortress.

Hundreds of 150mm howitzers and 105mm light howitzers opened fire violently, hitting the Tobruk Fortress one by one.

In addition, the 5th Heavy Brigade also arrived on the battlefield.

The 108-210mm heavy howitzer poured shells on the Tobruk Fortress.

These 210mm heavy artillery cannons are much more powerful than the 150mm heavy howitzers.

Even though the sun never sets, the 8th Army of the Empire managed to strengthen the defense of Tobruk Fortress. However, under the bombardment of these large-caliber heavy artillery, the defense of Tobruk Fortress was still like paper and was easily destroyed.

In the sky, dive bombers of the Third Reich Air Force were dropping bombs.

One after another, dive bombers roared and dropped aerial bombs weighing 500 kilograms on the Tobruk Fortress.

"boom! boom!"

Violent explosions continued to sound, and the buildings in the fortress were destroyed one after another.

No matter the fortress or the fort, they could not withstand the attack of the Third Reich Air Force and would be destroyed easily.

This made the entire The Tobruk Fortress was turned into ruins at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Several units of the 8th Group Army of the Sun Never Sets Empire, which was stationed at the fortress, suffered heavy losses.

On the sea, four battleships of the Caesar Kingdom Navy were destroyed in a single vote. Under the protection of cruisers and destroyers, they have arrived at the battlefield.

The two Veneto-class battleships, plus the battleship Caio Durio and the battleship Giulio Caesar that survived the previous naval battle, began to move towards the map. The Fortress of Bruges poured out artillery shells.

The four battleships hit the ship across the sea fifteen kilometers away from the coast. The huge main gun turret began to rotate, aiming at the Fortress of Tobruk.

"Fire!"

Following the commander's order, the four battleships started shooting one after another.

"boom! boom! boom!"

A huge roar sounded on the sea, and heavy battleship gun shells roared towards the Tobruk Fortress.

Because they were attacking land targets, the shells chosen by these warships were all high-explosive shells. , very powerful.

I saw that after the shell hit the Tobruk Fortress, a violent explosion occurred.

Groups of fireballs exploded and turned black.

The entire Tobruk Fortress suffered extensive damage.

This fortress originally lacked materials when it was built, and it was not very strong. Under the attack of large-caliber naval guns, this disadvantage was even more obvious. It can be said that if the four main ships opened fire intermittently, It won't take long for the entire Tobruk Fortress to be destroyed.

"General, the Caesar Kingdom Navy opened fire. If this continues, we will soon be able to level the entire fortress. Lieutenant Colonel Siegfeld said. General

Rommel nodded:"If we can use artillery shells to eliminate the enemies here, that would undoubtedly be the best." In this case, at least our soldiers will not have to fight for their lives and take risks. However, the Air Force is ordered to strengthen patrols of the surrounding waters, and the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet may not allow the Caesar Kingdom Navy to continue to launch attacks."

"Yes, General!"Lieutenant Colonel Siegfeld nodded.

However, it turned out that General Rommel was wrong in his judgment. In other words, the Royal Navy Mediterranean Fleet did not want to take risks.

Therefore, when the Caesar Kingdom Navy bombarded the Tobruk Fortress, the Royal Navy The Mediterranean Fleet did not appear and did not seem to intend to rescue the Tobruk Fortress.

This caused the entire Tobruk Fortress to be completely destroyed during the two-hour bombardment. A total of 50,000 troops were stationed here and were under heavy shelling. The losses were heavy. Almost half of the soldiers were killed or injured.

The rest of the soldiers were almost frightened.

For them, these two hours of shelling were like a year, as if they were It was like being in hell. So when the bombardment ended and the soldiers of the Third Reich launched the attack, many soldiers of the Empire on which the sun never sets simply did not have the courage to continue fighting. They directly put down their weapons and attacked the Third Reich. The imperial army surrendered.

In just one day, the North African Army of the Third Reich captured the Tobruk Fortress. The

50,000 imperial troops who defended the place were either killed by bombs or surrendered to the Third Reich. Got it

"This battle is too simple. It seems that the army of the Empire where the sun never sets is also very invincible. It is not difficult for us to win this battle."Lieutenant Colonel Siegfeld said.

General Rommel shook his head:"No, Lieutenant Colonel, you take all this too simply. This battle is still to be fought. Next, after we invade the Pharaoh Kingdom, our logistical supply lines will be lengthened, and supplies will become even more difficult. Unless the navy can deal with the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the Empire on which the sun never sets, gain control of the sea and ensure the safety of our maritime transportation lines. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to defeat the troops deployed by the Empire in North Africa!"

"Yes, General!"Lieutenant Colonel Ziegfeld also realized his negligence.

"No matter what, no matter how strong the enemy is, no matter how great the difficulties are. We all have to win this battle!"General Rommel's eyes were firm.

He knew very well that if he could win this battle and complete the tasks assigned by Hess, then it would be a sure thing for him to obtain the marshal's scepter and become a field marshal.

"Order the army to continue advancing eastward. We need to invade Pharaoh's kingdom. Let the army of Caesar's kingdom follow us. In addition, our follow-up troops must also speed up their landing in North Africa! General Rommel ordered.

After all, only a little more than half of the troops of the North African Army of the Third Reich have actually arrived in North Africa.

At least five infantry divisions are still in the Kingdom of Caesar, waiting to be shipped to the North African battlefield.

"Yes, General! Lieutenant Colonel Siegfeld replied.

Immediately, the troops of the Third Reich began to continue to advance eastward.

The 8th Army of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets seemed to have given up resisting the North African Group Army of the Third Reich in Libya due to heavy losses. It was withdrawn to the territory of the Pharaoh Kingdom. This also made the advancement of the Third Reich North Africa Army very smooth, with almost no resistance. On

December 11, the leading troops of the Third Reich North Africa Army invaded the Pharaoh Kingdom. Within the territory._To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
