Third Reich: I took over power

August 2, 1940, in the eastern Mediterranean.

All six capital ships of the Third Reich's Mediterranean Fleet arrived here. In addition, there are a large number of cruisers and destroyers. Even the USS Unicorn aircraft carrier came to join in the fun.

It can be said that in order to support the North African Army Group in crossing the Suez Canal, the Mediterranean Du Family of the Third Reich Navy considered that this time they had used all their main forces.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the North African Army requires us to launch artillery bombardment on the Imperial Army's position opposite Port Said, clear out the Imperial Army's defenses opposite, and cover the Army troops' crossing of the river."Rear Admiral Joachim, Chief of Fleet Staff, reported. Vice

Admiral Wilhelm Volkes, Commander of the Fleet, nodded.

After the formal establishment of the Mediterranean Fleet of the Third Reich Navy, General Wilhelm Volkes was promoted from Major General to Vice Admiral, Fleet Staff Officer Captain Joachim was also promoted from colonel to major general and became a real general.

Now, the Mediterranean Fleet of the Third Reich Navy has become the most powerful force in the Mediterranean. Naturally, they have to perform well.

"Order all ships to prepare. Attack in an hour!"Said Lieutenant General William Fulkes.

For the Mediterranean Fleet, launching artillery bombardments on the Imperial Army's defense lines and then covering the Army's crossing of the canal is nothing more than a trivial task. Just after 8 o'clock in the morning, The six capital ships of the Imperial Navy's Mediterranean Fleet began to pour artillery shells on the Imperial Army's positions where the sun never sets. The

380mm main guns of the four Richelieu-class battleships and the 330mm main guns of the two Dunkirk-class battlecruisers The guns were pouring out shells crazily.

The cruisers and destroyers were not to be outdone and opened fire. The heavy cruiser's 203mm main gun, the light cruiser's 152mm gun, and the destroyer's 120mm main gun all started firing.

For a while, , the artillery shells hit the Imperial Army's position like raindrops. The dense rain of bullets almost covered the entire position.

"boom! boom! boom!"

The sound of explosions continued, and the smoke filled the air, and the fire splashed everywhere. Under the bombardment of large-caliber naval guns, the defense line of the Imperial Army was easily destroyed. The capital ship of the Mediterranean Fleet of the Third Reich Navy originally belonged to Gaul It belongs to the country. The cruisers and destroyers belong to the Empire. Being attacked by the cannons of their own navy, the officers and soldiers of the Empire Army were not to mention how aggrieved they were. The aircraft carrier

Unicorn also Unwilling to be left alone, they began to take off ships and bomb the Imperial Army's defense line without setting the sun.

Carrier-based BF-109 fighter jets, dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft performing horizontal bombing missions all participated in the attack.

So that the sun never set. The Imperial Army soon suffered a devastating blow.

The Imperial Air Force also joined in, and hundreds of fighter planes began to bomb the defense lines of the Imperial Army.

Such a violent blow caused losses to the Imperial Army. It was a heavy blow, and their morale was severely damaged. Especially those Tianzhu people. If it weren't for the supervising team with crane guns guarding them, they might have escaped. After an hour of back-attack, the North African Army of the Third Reich Army began to cross the river.

First of all , It was an infantry division that crossed the Suez Canal at a minimal cost under the fire cover of the navy and air force.

Although the sun never sets on the Imperial Army, they tried their best to prevent the Third Reich Army from crossing the river. However, they failed in the third Under the fierce firepower of the Imperial Navy and Air Force, they suffered heavy losses and were unable to stop the Third Reich Army's attack. So much so that the Infantry Division of the Third Reich Army easily established a solid beachhead on the east bank of the canal.

Subsequently , the engineers of the Third Reich began to build pontoon bridges.

The river surface of the Suez Canal was not wide, and the water flow was smooth. This was not a problem for the imperial engineers.

Two hours later, two simple pontoon bridges had been built.

More infantry units began to cross the river, and then devoted themselves to the attack on the Imperial Army on which the sun never sets.

Even though the heavy weapons had not yet crossed the river, relying on the artillery deployed on the west bank of the canal and the fire support of fighter planes in the sky, the attack was still on. The Imperial Army was retreating steadily.

The engineers of the North African Army of the Third Reich Army were preparing to build more pontoon bridges and pontoon bridges for armored troops to cross the river.

Six hundred of the 5th Armored Division and the 7th Armored Division Many tanks and a large number of armored vehicles, as well as tank battalions and artillery regiments of various infantry divisions, were still waiting to cross the river. After they crossed the river, it was time to launch a fierce attack on the Empire on which the sun never sets.

The next day, but A pontoon bridge for armored troops and heavy artillery troops to cross the river has been built.

The armored troops of the Third Reich Army's North Africa Army are crossing the river one after another.

At this moment, the Imperial Army's defense line on the east side of the canal can no longer hold on.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the main force of the Third Reich has crossed the river. A large number of tanks and armored vehicles are crossing the river. They are about to launch a fierce attack on us. We can no longer carry on. In that case, it will only make us pay a higher price. Lieutenant General Allen suggested

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander. It was simply impossible for us to withstand the Third Reich's attack on the east bank of the canal. If you persist, you will only pay a greater price. This will be very detrimental to our future operations. Moreover, the soldiers no longer had the courage to fight anymore. Lieutenant General Harding also said.

Although General Montgomery felt aggrieved, he also knew very well that the current soldiers of the Imperial Army, where the sun never sets, have been frightened by the Third Reich Army and have become frightened birds. They simply did not have the courage to continue to resist the invasion of the Third Reich. If they continued, they would only suffer greater losses. Therefore, it was better to retreat. So, in order to preserve strength, General Montgomery ordered a retreat The order.

The sun never sets on the remnants of the 8th Army and the 9th Army of the Imperial Army. They began to abandon the defense line established east of the Suez Canal and began to flee.

However, the North African Army of the Third Reich Army still launched a frantic pursuit. The 7th Armored Division and the 7th Armored Division each formed an attack group with several infantry divisions to pursue the Imperial Army.

Under the pursuit of the North Africa Army of the Third Reich Army, the 8th and 9th Army of the Imperial Army , and paid a heavy price to escape into the desert.
