Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

In the end, the name of the son of the head of state was finally determined. Akado chose "Caesar" from the dozen names selected by Augustus, so everyone was happy, everyone was very satisfied with the name, and supported Aka People who were promoted to the German Emperor of the Third Reich also seemed to hear some off-string sounds from the baby's name.

Caesar, first of all, this was a great man who once pinned Arcado's ardent expectations on children. Second, the word of this name was intended to be the heir, so everyone has heard the meaning behind the name Arcado.

Liu Bei named his son Liu Feng and Liu Chan. The two names are linked together to be Feng Zen, so in many cases it is embarrassing to say things. In fact, giving the child a name that suits the situation can express his good wishes, such as Say I am embarrassed to usurp the throne and give the child the name of enthronement.

So our little Caesar became the successor of Germany's supreme leader who was the default leader of the Iron Cross under the age of one after the yearning of countless people's hopes.

Just as high-level Germans gathered around Caesar Rudolph to prepare for a power contest, on the far North African battlefield, a real battle had begun. The dive bombers rushed down the clouds one by one, and threw one after another bombshells on the British defenders' position with a roar.

A huge smoke column rose into the sky, and the tracer of the anti-aircraft gun still pulled a bright line in the day and flew into the sky. But with the German bombers coming at the same time, there was the sky-high artillery fire of the Frederick Rocket and the constant suppression of the Italian army's large-caliber howitzer.

The entire British position was a sea of ​​fire. It seemed that the Germans had no intention of leaving ammunition for the subsequent attack. They were completely venting their anger. They seemed to be holding a shell in their hands in the shortest time. Light mindset.

One after another, the shells were pushed into the cannon by the soldiers, and one artillery after another made its own roar in the artillery's shouts. One after another, the warhead was squeezed out of the barrel by the firing charge, and then cut through the air and made a wailing howl until it hit its target.

Immediately afterwards, the sand was lifted by a huge air wave, and the soldiers curled up their bodies in a huge explosion, crying and shouting, until the explosion went away from them. It is a pity that the first round of shelling has not really left them, and the second round of shelling has exploded beside them.

Just as British soldiers endured endless artillery attacks, more German Air Force dive bombers appeared above them. These planes poured their ammunition unscrupulously and attacked every ground they could see. Move on the target.

Under the cover of superior artillery and air force, the Germans began to nibble at the defensive positions arranged by the British defenders outside Tobruk. A large number of Germans did not take a serious breakthrough, but used a small-scale plane attack, cooperated with special forces and air forces and artillery, and cleared the outer British defense forces.

This new style of play has begun to gain popularity on the Eastern Front, and many special operations teams have played a decisive role in defending against Soviet forces. Many times the Soviets suffered heavy losses but did not even touch the main body of the German defenses. This time Rommel applied special tactics to the offensive, which also had a striking effect.

From time to time, the arms or legs of British soldiers were rolled up by bombs, and then flew into the open space more than ten meters away with the violent airflow. The British soldiers were crying helplessly, and the injured people begged the medical soldiers for help over and over again. This fortress is full of yellow sand.

The entire Tobruk is now a human hell. Every bunker and trench that had been detected by the Italian army beforehand was taken care of by artillery shells. The British defenders in it suffered heavy losses, and even some areas reinforced by concrete Blowed up by shells, none of them were spared.

Of course Montgomery would not be in Tobruk. He was still in Cairo when the German offensive began when he attended a reception hosted by a local politician. Many British people are unhappy with the fall of the homeland. Most businessmen can only stay in Egypt because of the heavy losses.

If someone told these businessmen six months ago that the German navy would defeat the British navy, 80% would make everyone laugh. But now no one would laugh out, because the Royal Navy has indeed been beaten by the German high seas fleet to find teeth, and even the locals have been thrown to the once weak and extreme opponents.

"General Montgomery, we have lost the natives to the Germans, so Egypt is at least safe here?" A businessman in a white suit, holding a wine glass, asked Montgomery who was in contemplation, and Montgomery was actually recuperating with his troops Barton discusses the situation in North Africa.

"Of course, sir, at least it's very safe here. The German fleet can't appear in the nearby waters. As long as we are there, they can't be stupid enough to pass through the Suez Canal, right?" Montgomery picked up his glass, he I came here to appease these British merchants. Now the British royal family in Iceland can only rely on these British merchants scattered around the world. Their supplies are slowly converging to some British-controlled areas. This is the future. The cost of counterattack.

After sending away the local Egyptian British businessman who came to eat the ecstasy, and the representatives or leaders of several businessmen, the better the distribution of benefits after the situation was stabilized, Montgomery rubbed his temple and walked back to Barton.

Barton seemed to be less interested in this reception. He took a cigar and sneered after spitting out the clouds: "It seems that my situation is better, at least as a general, I do n’t have to deal with all these brains. It ’s the deceived businessmen who deal with it. "

"Torbrooke has started the war, and on the way I came, the Rommel guy seemed to have received a lot of arms, and his family is now much thicker than me." Montgomery sighed, and neither did he. Good at discussing the situation with businessmen, he is more willing to analyze the battlefield situation around Tobruk together with Barton.

Patton reluctantly took the cigar in his hand and played with it, and then he suffocated his mouth: "I have long suggested to strengthen the guard force of Malta, but you ca n’t draw 10,000 to strengthen the guard there. Now Malta has lost, The Mediterranean is almost Italian, and their supplies will of course increase. "

Montgomery was even more wronged, and he sighed again: "Ah ... do you think I don't want to strengthen the Maltese army? At that time, we couldn't even draw out a regiment. Even now, I'm wondering if there is a chance To retake Malta, it just seems that this hope is not great. "

"Let's talk about Tobruk ... after all, Malta has been lost, and it is not realistic to take it back." Barton also felt that losing Malta and Montgomery really had little relationship. At that time, the British side was a mess, and the locals were lost. Who would Care about an island?

"The Germans attacked on three sides and did not mean to retain power. Now the outer positions have been ruined. Rommel's tank troops have not yet entered the battle on a large scale, but it can be expected that Tobruk will face difficulties in the short term." Montgomery briefly introduced the situation on the battlefield.

Button also frowned after hearing this. Now his Anglo-American 8th Army has finished rest, but even if they start to rush to Tobruk, they can't attack the German team before they are ruined there.

"How long can it be kept?" Finally, Patton asked, squeezing his cigar.

"Ten days, up to twenty days." Montgomery admitted frankly: "Indian forces are incomparable with Australia."

"You have been holding for twelve days, and I will be able to rush to the battlefield, launch a counterattack in the area east of Tobruk, and drive away Rommel's troops." Barton seemed determined to speak, and said to Montgomery.

"Twelve days? Good! I will let the defenders die hard and fight for you for thirteen days!" Montgomery rejoiced and quickly made his own guarantee to Button.

"On June 21, we started the Tobruk counterattack and drove Rommel's troops back to Tu Nisi!" Barton said fiercely.

A blast came from a distance. On the frontline of Tobruk, in the deep trenches, Rommel's eyes were removed from the scissor artillery mirror. He pointed at the map with a smile and said to the surrounding officers: "In the morning we Breaking through here and here, a circular breakthrough was made on the British position, and a very good observation post position was achieved! Now, it is really time for our killer to play, I personally still look forward to this attack. "

Just not far from the sea, the main guns of four Italian battleships and one Vichy French battleship began to turn at the same time. After the cooperation between the British waters and the South Atlantic, the tacit understanding of the two navies had improved.

With the order, dozens of large-caliber cannons of the Navy made a deafening roar at sea. The blast of air from the muzzle of a huge artillery blasted ripples from the calm sea of ​​the Mediterranean Sea. And as the roar went away, it was the terrifying naval shells.

"Boom!" The huge shock shook the entire Tobruk in fear. The British knew that today's dense shelling and bombing were just small appetizers. The real luxury artillery feast is only now. Officially begin. r1148
