Chapter 676： Weak Noodle Army

Italy’s highest commander in North Africa was killed, and in the rear, who should be sent to replace Marshal Balbo is a major issue, and we must be cautious. Mussolini has been vacillating, not knowing who is better, but in Italy, the frontline battle , Has not tolerated delay.

The British army is always counterattack!

This battle has to be talked about a few months ago. When Germany launched an offensive against France and had no time to realize its strategic intent in North Africa, the Italian army began a new offensive in North Africa. Their goal, of course, It is to go to the Suez Canal!

The 250,000 Italian army should have won a victory against the British army of only 30,000.

However, they suddenly conducted aerial reconnaissance and discovered that there was a huge armored unit in the British army. So they lost any intent to fight and chose to retreat. This retreat never slowed down, not just from The Egyptian territory retreated, and now, the British have been hit here along the coastline!

Although Germany also has troops in Libya, the main task of this force is to protect the oil fields. They have no spare energy to participate in the battle against Egypt.

And now, the British have hit Tubrug all the way!

As a result, Rommel couldn't wait for the troops in the rear. At this time, there was only the 66th Tank Battalion that had just assembled in the port of Libya!

"Rush!" After receiving the order, the battalion commander of the tank battalion, Karl Maus, loudly issued the battle order and marched toward Tubrug!

The tracks of the tank were crushing the hot ground, and the engine of the tank was rumbling. It was so sultry that they had to open the canopy, and even took off their military uniforms, wearing only the vest.

The weather here is really too hot, but their hearts are even hotter. This is the first battle to enter the North African battlefield. You must fight beautifully!

Behind them was the Italian army. According to Rommel's order, after the German army broke through the enemy, they wanted to follow up quickly and expand the results.

However, they didn't have much confidence. Along the way, they were almost chased by the British, who also had a huge armored force! Although the German tanks are very strong, but the number is too small!

The terrain is different from Europe. It is surrounded by wilderness. Even if the performance of the British tanks is not very good, you can also take advantage of the numbers to surround the German tank troops from the side or even to the back!

Therefore, they are not optimistic about this attack. They are far behind the German tanks, and at the same time they have already made plans in their hearts. If the German tanks are surrounded, they must be as fast as before. Run away!

Sitting on his tank, half of his body was exposed. Battalion Commander Karl-Maus did not take off his clothes. His army was disorganized, and his back was completely wet. At this time, he was holding his telescope. , He is constantly searching for the empty front.

There is still 20 kilometers away from Tubrug. In the air reconnaissance half an hour ago, a British tank unit was indeed found there. Therefore, one's own side may encounter the other side at any time.

In this case, you can never get lucky!

He turned his head again and looked back. It was almost the Italian army on the horizon. What a group of cowardly guys!

Although General Rommel took over the command of the Italian army, he did not expect them to be able to fight well, as long as they were allowed to follow and fight the wind, that was enough.

It’s getting closer and closer. As he gets closer and closer to Tubrug, Karl’s anxiety is getting stronger and stronger. It’s impossible to hide this kind of march from the British, the British. What about a powerful armored force? Why don't you come out to fight?

Could it be that where did they set up a trap?

"Report, everything is stable ahead, and no British armored units have been found." The sound of the reconnaissance platoon came from the radio.

With the continuous update of equipment, the scouts of the armored division have transitioned from motorcycles to wheeled infantry fighting vehicles. This all-wheel-drive fighting vehicle runs fast and can also be equipped with low-pressure guns. If you encounter a sudden encounter, you can fight a dozen.

And now, the investigators sent out in front did not discover the situation.

It seems that the opponent is in the city of Tubrug, waiting for his side to fight on the street? If you really fight on the street, there is no chance of winning. After all, the group of Italian soldiers in the back can't count on it, and the infantry on your side did not arrive. In the street fighting, the tank left the infantry, which is very tragic.

At this moment, suddenly, the Italian Legion in the rear rioted.

British tank! They were surprised to find a huge armored force suddenly appeared behind their side, and they were stunned.

On the entire plain, such a huge tank army suddenly appeared out of thin air! There are hundreds of them! This posture is about to rush over!

"Run, run!" Almost instantly, they made a decision, rushing to their tank, let the Germans go up!

Behind one's own side, a tank unit appeared? This made Carlton Shi a stunned, impossible, how did the other party pass?

Regardless, since the opponent has appeared in the rear, he must rush forward!

"Turn, back, and get ready to fight!" Carl shouted loudly.

Hearing his order, a famous tanker pulled the left operating lever to the end, the left track has been braked, and the right track continued to rotate, just like this, around a small angle~www .novelhall.com~ The steering is completed, the movements are neat and uniform, and there is even a sense of beauty.

Then, they stepped on the accelerator and planned to advance to the rear just now to fight the British tanks. At this moment, a famous driver couldn't help but scold his mother.

This spaghetti army!

They threw away all their equipment, not to mention the cars and artillery. They even threw away their rifles and no grenades. They ran towards the German tank almost empty-handed!

Is this the army? It is simply a shame for the soldiers! They are like sheep, weak and speechless!

Moreover, these people rushed over, and instead created obstacles for the tank troops to attack.

"Regardless of the Italians, triangle attack formation, attack!" Carl shouted.

If the Italian soldiers don't have eyesight, and they attack their tank formations, they deserve it! At this time, Karl was excited. Although he only had dozens of tanks, the opponent had hundreds of them. He was not afraid. He would definitely win this battle!
