Rommel took over the command of the Italian army after the Italian hard-line legend Air Marshal Itano Balbo was killed by his own anti-aircraft fire, and Rommel took over the command of the Italian army and commanded the Noodle Army to fight.

Later, after much deliberation, Mussolini finally sent Marshal Rudolfo Graziani to Italy as the commander-in-chief of the Italian army.

At this time, the German army had already soared all the way, leaving the Italian army behind, so Marshal Graziani had no choice but to accept Rommel's command, follow the German army, and continue to advance eastward, and in this way, the command of the Italian army completely fell into the hands of Rommel.

In terms of military rank, Graziani was the marshal, and Rommel was the general, and the marshal accepted the command of the general and was already holding his fire, so when Mussolini and Ciric reached an agreement and decided to send German instructors to the Italian army, Marshal Graziani said that he did not agree to anything.

Originally, accepting the command of Germany, this was enough to make him angry, but now, the Germans are not satisfied, and they actually want to install German instructors in the Italian army, which is absolutely impossible!

Marshal Graziani resisted the order and did not accept the orders given by Mussolini, in short, without his consent, a German instructor did not want to enter his own troops!

In terms of numbers, the Italian army is larger, with a full 250,000 people, while the German army is not even 100,000 people, so why should they let themselves accept German instructors?

Marshal Graziani still remembers that Rommel at that time showed quite high self-cultivation: "The Italian army has emotions? Okay, then we won't send it for the time being, but the Italian army's will to fight really can't reassure me! ”

When he heard Rommel say this, Marshal Graziani was immediately unconvinced: "The will to fight? Our Italian army is not bad! We're just a little poorly equipped, and if we also have a Panther 3 tank, we can take the lead! We, the Italian army, have no seeds! ”

"Okay, with your words, I'm relieved." Rommel said: "It's just that there are some things that have to be said in advance, if the Italian army is weak-willed on the battlefield, loses its position, and escapes from the battle, don't blame my military law!" ”

Yes, that was the way it was! Thinking of this, Marshal Graziani had already understood, Rommel was digging a hole for himself at that time, Rommel was very talkative at that time, and now, Rommel is going to put up a face and exert pressure.

Rommel finally found his chance.

Without a crowbar, there would be no war, this reason is simply ancient and modern, if it is put in the German army, it will definitely be shot at the moment, and now, the Italian marshal in front of him dares to say this reason in a grand manner!

In short, Rommel will not compromise anymore, the German army is not enough in number, and must rely on the Italian army as helpers, but their will to fight is too poor, and only by sending German instructors in can their combat effectiveness be improved!

The angry Rommel was terrible, and now, Rommel has clearly told Marshal Graziani, either kill all those who surrendered in order to put the army in order, or, all the Italian troops, go back, want such an army, what kind of battle?

Although Marshal Graziani is very proud, he also knows the severity, and at this time, he must not lift his ass and leave.

If only the German army remains, then Egypt, the Middle East, those large territories, all of them are Germans, Italy will not be able to share anything, and when he goes back, Mussolini will tear him apart with his hands.

However, if it were to shoot all those who had surrendered, it would be equally inappropriate, as it would make the Italian army even more fearful of the Germans, and they would have no power of their own.

Marshal Graziani's face was red, white, his lips trembled, and he could not speak.

"Marshal? What else has to be explained, if not, let the Italian troops withdraw from the front tonight and go back. Rommel grimaced and continued.

Hearing Rommel's words, Marshal Graziani immediately became angry: "Why should we withdraw? ”

"Won't your troops withdraw and wait to surrender to the British? The British did not take advantage of it during the day, and it is very likely that they will launch a night sneak attack at night to retake their positions, and with your performance during the day, it is possible that all the Italian troops will surrender, and we cannot be firefighters again and again. ”

Every word of Rommel deeply stimulated Marshal Graziani, and he immediately wanted to go crazy, but Garibaldi on the side hurriedly came up to dissuade him: "General Rommel, we are friends who fight side by side, we should also fight on the front line, please rest assured, we will not let you down again this time." ”

Rommel shook his head: "I don't want to have this kind of fear, once the British break through the line of defense of the Italian army, the consequences are unimaginable, I will not continue to take such a risk." ”

"Trust us." Garibaldi continued to talk to the mud: "Marshal Graziani, our army has always been very brave, hasn't it? ”

"Of course!"

"If you are really brave, then, how about organizing a counteroffensive tonight and knocking down the British Mitrian mountain fortifications for me?" Rommel said.

Hearing this, the two of them were immediately dumbfounded, they were very stubborn, saying that the Italian army had strong combat effectiveness, but now, Rommel asked them to counterattack, and they knew that they definitely didn't have that ability.

In the mountainous area that spreads there, fortifications are dug everywhere, and your own troops rush up, the casualties must be large, and as long as there are a few casualties, the subordinates can easily retreat.

"If it doesn't work, let's leave early." Rommel continued to irritate them.

"General Rommel, you know it's impossible!" Marshal Graziani said: "Such an attack would have cost heavy casualties, and the effect would be very poor. ”

"Really? How about we make a bet? Rommel said.

Hearing this, Marshal Graziani knew that Rommel was insidious, the Italian army could not do it, and the German army could do it, or it would bring out the incompetence of its own side!

I know in my heart that I can't admit defeat on my lips: "How to fight?" ”

"Let the German instructors we have prepared in advance enter the corresponding companies, and they will lead the team, and tonight, we will be able to fight the combat effectiveness of the Italian army." Rommel said, "How? This is the only chance, if you don't agree, then get out now, if you do, then if you win the battle tonight, in order to completely rehabilitate the Italian army, the instructor will remain in the Italian army. ”
