Rome, Italy.

Kesselring was in a large estate where Mussolini once lived, and a large group of generals were waiting for the Nordic commander, General Edward Dieter, and the two capable generals on the other side, the commander of the 18th Mountain Infantry Corps, General Egger, and the commander of the 10th Infantry Corps, General Vickerd.

At the same time, Paulo Tauné di Lefere, who had been promoted to admiral in 1918, and three other field marshals Pietro Badogglio, Enrico Caviglia, Hugo Caballero, and the chief of the General Staff, Marshal Badogglio, also came.

However, these four Italian marshals were all captured by Caisselring on the orders of Chen Yanlong, and they were required to surrender all power and the Italian naval fleet, otherwise they would all be shot.

In addition to these Italian marshals, Rudolfo Graziani, the successor of Italian Air Marshal Itano Balbo, who had died early in the morning, also came, and this person is now the Minister of Defense of the so-called "Republic of Salou" established by Mussolini, who was sent by Chen Yanlong to rescue, and is also the newly promoted Italian Air Marshal.

The purpose of Kesselring's visit to these people this time was all to seize the remaining ships and aircraft carriers in Italy.

According to later online historical sources, before Italy entered the war in June 1940, the main ships of the navy were as follows:

The 2 old-fashioned Earl Cavour-class battleships are: Cavour, Giulio? Caesar.

Old-fashioned Kao? 2 Durio-class battleships: Kao? Durio, Andrea? Doria.

The two new Veneto-class battleships were "Roman" and "Imperial".

The four heavy cruisers of the Zara class are: "Zara", "Fum", "Grazia", and "Bora"

The two heavy cruisers of the Taranto class are: Taranto and Trieste

2 Bolgarno-class heavy cruisers: Bolgarno, Gryage

About 12 light cruisers, respectively, Bander? Neely, Creoni, Babiano, Abruzzi, Giusano, Galibaldi, Prince Eugene, Giuseppe? Galabati ......

In addition, there is an aircraft carrier converted from a luxury cruise ship, called the aircraft carrier "Skyhawk".

In short, when Italy began to enter World War II, the Royal Italian Navy had 6 capital warships, 19 cruisers, 59 destroyers, 67 torpedo boats, and 116 submarines......

The Italian fleet is also relatively large in numbers, but there are a large number of old equipment and inexperienced sailors in the fleet, as well as a shortage of fuel, so the combat strength of the Italian navy is not very strong.

However, in 1943, the Italian navy followed Chen Yanlong and the British and Americans in several naval battles; There are less than 20 ships left; As for the return of the army, there are only a few thousand people left.

Because from 1940 to 1943, the total number of ships of various types sunk by British and American forces in the Italian Navy has exceeded 400, including more than 80 submarines.

The reason why Chen Yanlong asked Kesselring to control the remaining Italian navy was because he had exchanged a lot of aircraft carrier fleets now, so he needed a large number of naval talents, so even the few Italian navies now, as long as they could drive ships, they had to recruit them to fight against Britain and the United States first.

As for the remaining old ships in Italy, Chen Yanlong did not plan to ask for them, but planned to sell them all to the Far East, the Asia-Pacific region, and the South Seas region to make a little money.

As for who the buyer is, or the power, Chen Yanlong doesn't care, as long as he has money or the natural resources he needs to exchange.

"Our Führer's meaning is simple, as long as you are willing to obey his orders, he can let you live; Otherwise, they will all be shot, and no one will be left! ”

While Kesselring was waiting for the arrival of the Nordic commander, Admiral Eduard Dieter, he spoke to the sturdy Chief of the General Staff Badoglio and other Italian marshals who were tied up by their guards.

"Humph! If you have the ability to kill us, I will never surrender to you Germany, and you fascists will not be able to jump for long! ”

"The British, American, and Soviet armies will definitely kill you all, and they will liberate all of Europe and fight to your homeland! Hahaha! Your time of death is fast approaching! ”

In response to Kesselring's kind words, the chief of the general staff, Badoglio, was the first to stand up and mock forcefully.

As he took the lead in ridiculing, the other Italian marshals also ridiculed each other, and scolded and echoed any swear words.

"Bang!"

In this regard, Kessellin changed his usual gentle side, and with an expressionless face, he took out a Desert Eagle pistol that Chen Yanlong had privately rewarded him from his clothes, and shot the other party's head with one shot.

Looking at the shocking and bloody shooting scene, the energetic Italian marshals who were still mocking just now all changed their faces drastically, trembling all over, staring at Kesselring in horror, terrified that the next target of the other party was to kill themselves, and they shot them coldly.
