270 hell

yes, what more could you ask for? Rommel was thinking about it now, he was used to the feeling of attacking, even when he was just an infantryman. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Now the Fรผhrer gave him the power to attack, gave him the strength to attack, gave him the materials for the attack, and finally gave him the order to attack.

What more could he ask for? He felt that he had met the man who understood him, the wise leader who would make his name down forever.

There is a famous saying in ancient China that "a man dies for his confidant, and a woman is for a person who pleases himself", Rommel never heard this sentence, but he still knew how to repay this simple truth.

If it is an ancient Chinese movie, it is naturally a fist and a fist to say that the king treats me as a countryman, and I should repay it as a countryman......

But today's picture is in the yellow sand of North Africa, and Rommel has no habit of shouting slogans with his fists in his fists.

The slogan was not shouted because Rommel had found something louder - the whole 100 cannons behind him were roaring, projecting shells louder than slogans onto the enemy's positions.

Although Port Said had deployed a solid outer defensive position, there was nothing too good for the British defenders stationed in these positions in the face of so many artillery bombardments.

There are no heavy factories in this part of Africa, and there is no large-scale manufacturing - and even if there were, it has been lost to Rommel.

So the artillery and tanks, planes and cans here all need to be transported from far, far away.

This is also the reason why the supply of weapons on the African battlefield is to lose some and less. And now, Rommel is the "landlord" with abundant material and wealth!

He had military supplies seized from Cairo and Alexandria in his hands, and the British had left some of the reserves behind, which allowed Rommel's troops to enjoy the past few days as if it were Christmas.

On the other hand, the British troops in Port Said did not have much left except for some of the supplies that were rushed to Port Said.

In the real historical time and space, the difficulties encountered by Rommel during the battle of El Alamein have now changed direction and become a problem for General Auchinleck.

Britain is not only at an absolute disadvantage in terms of the number of troops, but also in terms of weapons, ammunition, and logistical supplies.

For the British generals, including Montgomery, this was definitely unfavorable news, because they could often only withstand the German attack in the case of superiority, and only dare to counterattack the German army and achieve victory in the case of an even greater disparity......

Now, Montgomery, who had succeeded Auchinleck as commander of the 8th Army, did not even dare to go to Port Said to see the battle, but could only stand on the other side of the Suez Canal and watch his soldiers struggle under enemy fire.

"General Auchinleck...... How many German troops Rommel had in his hands and how much material support he had, you didn't figure out these questions? Montgomery narrowed his eyes and asked Auchinleck, who was standing next to him, with a hint of embarrassment on his face.

Auchinleck sighed and said: "Judging from the troops encountered, the German troops under Rommel have two armored divisions, the 15th and 21st, and a special unit called the '10th Mechanized Infantry Division', and the infantry includes the 46th SS Division, as well as the 90th Infantry Division......"

When he heard that the other side had five serious German divisions, Montgomery felt bad, he was not sure that he could rely on these troops from all over the world to win such an opponent, it was simply impossible.

Rommel had five German divisions, but Montgomery didn't even have three serious British divisions.

Now he has troops from South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, India, Iraq, Iran, and other places under his hands......

Only the 7th Panzer Division can be regarded as a real British descendant, the Australian troops can fight, and the rest of the troops are some soy sauce goods, in the face of the German Panzer Division, how dare Montgomery expect Indian or Iranian troops to hold the line?

Moreover, eighty percent of these units were recruits, improvised units -- to put it more appropriately than the three types of German troops.

But whether it's a German panzer division, or that strange mechanized infantry division, or an Waffen-SS unit - doesn't that sound like a German class three troops?

"As for the logistical supply of Rommel's troops...... According to naval intelligence, the Germans had a large port under construction in Sirte. Auchinleck was depressed when he mentioned this.

Even if there are fewer troops, fighting in an area close to his own port was originally an advantage that Auchinleck had, but this advantage was lost so inexplicably, could he really not be depressed?

"Building a large port in Sirte?" Montgomery, who heard the news, was also very depressed: "The Germans have the ability to build large ports in Africa? โ€

"Yes, I don't know what method to use, but the Germans have the ability to expand small ports in a way that we don't know!" Auchinleck was talking about a terrible piece of news that had just been confirmed by the Navy.

This news is even more shocking and devastating for Britain than what the Germans are working on V1 missiles.

Because with this information, the Germans could have at least three times as many landing fields on the British side! The small ports, which were not in the area of the main defenses, were now possible targets for the Germans.

Deploying troops on these targets and building fortifications is a waste of time and money. On the other hand, the army had to once again disperse its already small number of soldiers to garrison more places.

The British mainland is now in shambles, with the Army expanding its key defensive lines and the Navy redrawing its anti-landing operations plan to fill in the loopholes and problems in the previous plan.

The news that the German Army could choose more landing sites made the British judge that the scope of the German landing had been expanded, and there were new changes in the timing.

If Germany could quickly build ports suitable for large-scale replenishment of the landing force, would the Germans risk the landing earlier?

There are probably countless speculations that need to be elaborated in subsequent meetings, and with only a small amount of information, such speculation and arguments are often locked up and unreliable.

But even if it's not reliable, what can it be? No one dares to risk rejecting these assumptions, because they concern the homeland security of the British Empire!

"According to my speculation, Sirte was not Rommel's main supply port, and it was Alexander and Mat......roux who supported Rommel's troops," Auchinleck, as Montgomery's predecessor, told his successor as much information as he could.

Montgomery looked at Auchinleck and asked, "Now that you know so clearly, is the bombing unfolding?" โ€

"The Germans have the upper hand in the air, and any bombing is a no-go ...... The night bombardment could only be directed against Alexandria and did not work well for Matroux. Auchinleck opened his mouth to explain.

After hearing his words, Montgomery also realized that he had taken it for granted, the bombardment against Alexander had already begun, but the effect did not look good now.

Having lost more than 100 aircraft, Britain was not able to complete the important task of blocking German supplies.

What does this mean? This shows that Rommel's troops, the supplies consumed by the offensive were not obtained from Alexandria, there was just a trap, a false target to booby trap the British Air Force!

And there was a great difficulty in bombing Matroux at night, and Montgomery knew the reason for this by casual thought.

Matroux wasn't a big port before, the city was small, and the target at night was too stealthy - as long as the lights were controlled, the target wouldn't appear at night......

"There are so many mysteries in North Africa...... We didn't find the exact location of that mysterious oil field in Libya, and now we can't even find the supply lines of the Germans! Montgomery laughed to himself, then looked back at Port Said, which was smoking in the distance.

"We can't hold on there, and now we have to give up." He thought for a moment and said, "It's only a matter of time before the defense line along the river is breached. โ€

"You don't have to worry about this, I have already explained the situation in the Middle East to His Majesty in the last telegram, and you don't have to bear the responsibility of losing Port Said." Ogilek spoke.

"Thank you." Montgomery opened his mouth to thank him, then thought for a moment and said, "Entering the Middle East, we will be closer to India, and we will probably find an advantage at that time." โ€

"You're right, and that's what I'm advocating. The entry of the Germans into the Middle East could also further deteriorate Soviet-German relations. Auchinleck nodded in agreement.

However, he quickly poured cold water on Montgomery: "It's a pity that General Montgomery, provided that the Germans can't rush to build another port in the Middle East......"

When Montgomery heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that his thanks were a little early - he could not sit back and relax in the Middle East, and the Germans were backed by the Mediterranean, and they could call at any time!

"Hell! We should find a way to get the troops sent to Greece back as soon as possible! He looked at Auchinleck and said.
