Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 414
Tobruk, the headquarters of the Third Reich's North Africa Army.
General Rommel and Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Alfred Gauss and others had received notification from the Navy and learned that the Navy had won the naval battle and that the Mediterranean Fleet had been destroyed.
This made the generals and officers of the North Africa Army Headquarters very happy.
The destruction of the Mediterranean Fleet meant that the Royal Navy could no longer threaten the North African Army's logistical supply lines. Subsequent personnel, supplies, and weapons and equipment can be continuously transported to the North African battlefield by sea. This allows the North African Army to no longer have to worry about threats to its logistical supply lines and can continue to launch attacks.
Even in the next battle, they can get strong support from the navy. This will be a great help to the North African battlefield. With these help, the Third Reich's North African Army's victory on the battlefield was already a certainty.
In addition, oil exploration in the Sirt Basin can also be restarted. Even though the Third Reich itself is still blocked, it can use the Kingdom of Caesar to transport oil back to the country by train to supplement domestic oil consumption. Otherwise, as oil consumption increases, the national oil reserve system established by the Third Reich may collapse if it is not replenished.
After Marshal Graziani, commander of the Kingdom of Caesar's Libyan Army, learned the news of the navy's victory, he immediately rushed to the headquarters of the North African Army of the Third Reich.
"Your Excellency, the Navy has won the victory and has control of the Mediterranean Sea. Next, we can launch an attack boldly and confidently. When will the attack on El Alamein begin?"Marshal Graziani asked.
In his opinion, after the navy's victory, the Iron Alliance's victory on the North African battlefield is almost certain. The Caesar Kingdom's army, which was originally passive and fearful of war, has also become proactive.
"Your Excellency, Marshal, our troops are advancing towards Alamein. The navy will next launch a bombardment of Alamein. The Air Force will also bomb El Alamein. After all firepower preparations are completed, it is time for us to launch an attack and defeat the armies of the Empire that Never Sets in North Africa."General Rommel said.
Marshal Graziani nodded repeatedly. Militaryly, he now obeys General Rommel's arrangements in everything.
"Your Excellency, Marshal, the main forces of the Imperial North African Army have all arrived on the North African battlefield. Part of your country's Libyan Army Group will be stationed in various parts of Libya. However, we hope that your country can dispatch a group of troops that are truly capable of fighting from the Libyan Army Group to fight with us. After all, this war is not just our war." said Lieutenant General Alfred Gauss, Chief of Staff of North Africa Army
"This is no problem. Next, the Army Group will deploy fifteen infantry divisions and two armored divisions, a total of 200,000 troops, to accompany the Third Reich North Africa Army. I guarantee that these armies are all capable of fighting."Marshal Graziani said.
Marshal Graziani knew very well that the combat effectiveness of the Kingdom's army was very poor, and the Third Reich Army did not look down upon them at all. Therefore, in this battle, he specially selected those with strong combat effectiveness. Troops, just to give the Third Reich a good impression
"Very good, in this case I will have no problem in this battle. Now, the main force has assembled towards El Alamein. It is expected that our attack on Alamein will begin in three days."General Rommel said.
The Imperial Army is trying to gather its main force in El Alamein for a decisive battle with the Iron Alliance.
This is exactly what General Rommel wants. If it can inflict heavy damage in this battle and even annihilate the Imperial Army, If the main force of the Empire's army stationed in North Africa is defeated, then the next battle will undoubtedly be much easier. In
Alexandria, General Montgomery, commander of the 8th Army of the Empire, where the sun never sets, Lieutenant General Allen, Chief of Staff, and After the news, Lieutenant General Harding, the commander of the 9th Group Army who came from Kailuo, all knew about the tragic defeat of the Mediterranean Fleet and the annihilation of the entire army.
Their faces were very ugly, knowing that the annihilation of the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet was very difficult for them. , what does it mean
"Your Excellency, Commander, the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet has been completely destroyed. The control of the entire Mediterranean Sea has temporarily fallen into the hands of the Iron Alliance. Our plan to lengthen the supply line of the Iron Alliance Army has failed. Next, their navy will join in the bombardment of Alamein. This will be very detrimental to us. Lieutenant General Allen said.
General Montgomery nodded:"Yes!" The situation has deteriorated considerably for us. It is very difficult for us to win this battle."
"Your Excellency, Commander, why don't we give up the decisive battle with the Iron Alliance at El Alamein and retreat immediately. Retreat to Kailuo. It's far from the coast, and the Iron Alliance navy can't threaten us. Compared to Alamein, there will be a decisive battle with the Iron Alliance." Lieutenant General Harding suggested.
General Montgomery hesitated:"We have been preparing for such a long time in El Alamein and spent a lot of materials building a defense line. If you give up Alamein, all these investments will be wasted."
"Your Excellency, Commander, there is nothing we can do about this! Lieutenant General Harding persuaded.
At this time, they received a report that three battleships on the sea were launching fierce bombardments against Alamein.
Off the coast of Alamein, two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers of the Third Reich, And the relatively lightly damaged battleship Veneto was pouring artillery shells on Alamein.
Originally, Admiral Paul did not want the battleship Veneto to participate in the battle, and wanted the battleship to return to the mainland for repairs.
However, the third The Empire strongly requested the Caesar Kingdom Navy to join the bombardment of Alamein to support the ground forces. The
Caesar Kingdom Navy had no choice but to let the Veneto participate in the battle, while the Littorio, which was more seriously damaged, returned to the mainland to fight. Repair.
The powerful firepower of the three battleships is enough to deal a very heavy blow to the defense line of Alamein's Imperial Army. The large-caliber main guns of the battleships are simply not something that human power can contend with. Even with careful The defense lines built are also like paper and can be easily destroyed._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
