Chapter 1328

"Report to the Chief Executive!"

Huang Hong, who had been standing aside to serve, quickly answered: "From the front line of Lani in West Dubai, the German and Italian coalition forces have advanced to the area of ​​Port Matru, and are fiercely fighting with our 1st Chinese Expedition Army, the 6th Army of the US Army, and the 13th Army of the British Army, and the 13th Army of the British Army. The battle is very fierce..."

While listening to Huang Hong's detailed report, Yang Fan stood up and walked to the large sand table in the center of the war room.

At this moment, the sand table was covered with war games models from both sides. You can see that the front-line battlefield was in a state of fierce firefighting at this moment.

After the air force launched an attack, the ground forces of the German and Italian coalition forces also began to move simultaneously.

After several hours of large-scale mine clearance operations, the German and Italian coalition forces have now opened a safe passage that is nearly 20 kilometers wide and dozens of kilometers long.

It is also because of this that the ground armored cluster of the German and Italian coalition forces was able to cross the vast minefield along the coastline and steadily advance the front line of the Matruk Port, the most cutting-edge of the Allied forces.

The German and Italian coalition's self-propelled artillery units have the artillery range that can cover the positions on the front line of the Allied forces, and are in fierce exchange of fire with the Allied artillery units. Some armored tank units have even advanced into the Allied positions and are in close contact with the Allied tank units.

In order to provide maximum support to the ground troops, I don’t know how many times the German-Italy bomber groups and ground attack aircraft groups departing from the Tobrook Fortress have been dispatched, nor do I know how many German-Italy bombers and enemy attack aircraft have been shot down and crashed in the fierce air defense war and air-to-air battle.

Similarly, while fighting against the German-Italy fighter fleet, the air force on the Allied forces sent a large number of bombers regardless of danger to bomb and strafuse the ground attack aircraft against the German-Italy coalition's ground armored forces.

The helicopter brigade under the Hu Ben Army has not yet appeared because without absolute air supremacy, these helicopters can only live targets, not to mention that the German armored forces have not weak air combat capabilities.

These helicopters modified from transport aircraft have limited ground attack capabilities, and it is okay to bully infantry without air defense capabilities.

As for another ace self-propelled rocket launcher, Yang Fan has not yet made it. The main reason is that the German and Italian coalition armored forces are very wide and have strong maneuver power. In addition, air supremacy is not completely in his own hands.

At this time, the use of the rocket launcher is also not a good opportunity to fight.

Just as Yang Fan stared at the sand table and pondered, Okinlek said with a worried look on his face: "General Yang Fan, this time the Rommel African Legion has used all its strength to attack. The Fortress of Port Martruck is the only solid fortress in Alexandria's port. We must not lose it!"

The Port of Martru is only 250 kilometers away from the most important port of Alexandria, the Allied Forces. Once it falls into the hands of the Axis troops, they will not only obtain an excellent port supply point, but their bomber fleet will also directly threaten the safety of the Mediterranean fleet anchored in the port.

The key issue is that the Rommel North African Legion will advance a solid fulcrum of more than 150 kilometers forward, directly threatening the last line of defense of the Allied forces.

"General Okinlek, don't worry, things are not that bad!"

Yang Fan raised his eyebrows slightly and said murderously: "Rommeel's African Legion has nothing to be afraid of. Since they are so eager to achieve success and have such a fierce attack at all costs, then we will accompany you to the end!

I don't believe it anymore. They can capture the Fortress of Matruk from under my nose!"

"Yes, at the moment I can only stand this way. Let's see who can hold on until the end,"

Stilwell, who was standing aside, frowned slightly and said in a firm tone: "I firmly believe that we can defend Fortress Martruck and defeat the attack of Rommel's African Legion."

At present, there is a melee between hundreds of thousands of people. It is not just a slap in your head and a frown on your mind that you can come up with a good strategy to break the enemy and change the situation.

The only thing you have to do now is to compete in the air force, artillery, tank and armored troops, infantry, and fighting will.

In short, if you meet in a narrow road, the brave will win. At this moment, you can only grit your teeth and fight for hard power. There is no other way!

"I hope so! We really have no way out!"

"Yes! This battle can only be won but not defeated!"

"Rommeel's North African Legion has a total strength of more than 1.2 million, and we only have less than 700,000 left. Can we really stop it?"

"If Fortress Matru will be lost again, it will be a big shot."

Rommel's African Legion was coming with great force, covering the sky and the ground, and dispatching a huge combat cluster of 200,000 to 300,000 in one breath. The Allied camp on the battlefield in North Africa instantly suffered unprecedented pressure.

Especially senior generals such as Okinlek, Ritchie, and Patton were worried, and there was anxiety and fear that could not be dissolved between their eyebrows.

They were extremely worried that the front-line troops of the Allied forces, which had been defeated repeatedly before, would not withstand the strong attacks of the Axis troops, and would experience chain collapse, and throw away the last solid barrier.

"Don't worry, everyone, the sky cannot fall. As long as we grit our teeth, a turning point will soon occur!"

Yang Fan was really not panicked about this, because judging from the current situation, although he was under great pressure, he was obviously far from showing signs of collapse against the wind.

Especially for the Air Force, after four or five hours of bloody battle, although the overall casualties were heavy, the situation began to improve as the Hub Air Force pilots gradually entered the state.

Although Yang Fan had previously asked the technical equipment and logistics supplies of the Chinese Expeditionary Force to be provided by the United States.

But it is related to the life and death of more than 200,000 expeditionary soldiers and the success or failure of the Allied camp, Yang Fan really has no way to come empty-handed because he saves a few money and hand over his future and destiny to the US government.

At least you have to do enough skills on the surface, because you have to make a blatant cheating in front of everyone. Such a slutty operating system will never allow it.

Therefore, there are Mustang fighters, carrier-based aircraft, ground attack aircraft, helicopters, self-propelled rocket launchers, Tiger tanks and other large amounts of technical equipment.

Among them, there are as many as 500 Mustang fighters. At this moment, these advanced fighters are playing the role of a mainstay, tilting the air battle victory balance bit by bit towards their own side.

As long as the German and Italian air forces can be repelled and they cannot rage in their own airspace, the aces such as self-propelled rocket launchers, helicopters, and ground attack aircraft can fully play their role.

In addition, Yang Fan is also accelerating the operation plan for sneak attack on the port of Taranto. Through the emergency transformation of 4 10,000-ton ships, it has turned into 4 aircraft carriers that can carry up to 96 carrier-based aircraft.

The naval forces are stepping up training and running in with the British Navy, and they will soon be able to carry out sneak attacks as planned.
