"Yes, General." Simon waved his hand and retreated to the side.
"Where's the female manager who showed me the way before?”
"I know. You heard me. I'll leave it to you.”Li Zihao said to Simon.
"Alright."
Simon arranged another hotel for Li Zihao. For the sake of safety, he drove away all the employees and guests and surrounded them three layers inside and three layers outside. Not even a bird could fly in.
The news of Li Zihao's attack quickly spread to Berlin. Because it was not a big deal, it was not reported immediately. After all, it was already late at night and it would soon be dawn.
Li Zihao had witnessed the combat quality of the SS. The soldiers did not lack passion, but compared to the National Defense Force, the backbone of Prussians 'military, the armed forces belonging to the Natsui Party were pitifully weak.
However, he couldn't care about this now. Rommel, who had already arrived, had to send him three telegrams a day, urging him to hurry. After all, he was the real commander.
It was a small team with a team emblem that looked like a poker card.
As the number of people increased, the number of transport planes also increased.
The pilot was in contact with the ground command center and was lowering his altitude. He had already arrived in Napoli, the largest city in the southern part of the Roman Republic.
Stuart and Rommel, who were anxiously waiting for him, finally heaved a sigh of relief. This man was too slow. If he had been here earlier, they would have been on the ship and headed for Sardinia.
The plane was decelerating. Whether it was taking off or landing, it was a test of the pilot's skills. Many pilots had died in this area, especially when they were landing. If they were not careful, they would have an accident. They could not be careless.
Wearing a black leather jacket and sunglasses, Li Zihao got off the plane. He never thought that he would go abroad one day. First it was Prussians, then it was Rome.
The two of them saluted Li Zihao. Seeing their hesitant expressions, Li Zihao knew why. It was because of the delay in his departure time.
"Alright, I know you're anxious. We'll set off tomorrow.”
The two of them looked a little better. What they were most afraid of was that Li Zihao was stalling again.
After all, they couldn't wait to go to the battlefield.
"We can arrange for them to board the ship. We need a lot of supplies.”Li Zihao knew very well that the next step would be to rely on the Roman navy. This was the Mediterranean Sea, and the Prussians 'navy could not come here because the British were still in control.
This was also the territory that Britain and Spain had the most dispute over. It was the throat of the Atlantic and Mediterranean oceans, and was very important.
In terms of diplomacy, Britain and France were indifferent to the interference of Rome and Pronia in the Spanish civil war. The main reason was that they did not want the common ideas to continue to spread in the European continent. After all, Europe was the hometown of capitalists.
It was already September. Li Zihao refused to fight alongside the Roman army because he did not trust the combat effectiveness of the Roman army. In the end, the Roman side chose to go to the Portugal border and prepared to attack Madrid directly from there. Li Zihao placed his army in Malaga in southern Spain.
This was only the first batch of troops. Shadia had already told Li Zihao that if the war did not go well, they would send more troops to him. They could reach 50,000 by the end of the year.
In fact, this place had already become a place for western countries to experiment with new weapons. The appearance of cannons, planes, and tanks had already broken the previous war of machine guns and trenches.
Tanks could easily tear through the defensive positions formed by barbed wire and trenches on the plains.
"Rommel, look, we only have less than 20,000 people, but our opponent has five times our strength. Of course, our advantage lies in our mechanized technology. Is there any way for us to take down their heavy army group in the south in one go?”
"It's not difficult. Our advantage is that we have a large number of tanks. We can also use the paratroopers to block their reinforcements or retreat. As long as the civilian army on the left pounce on us, my troops can cut them in half and form a large encirclement.”
Rommel drew a circle on the military map with his baton. According to his idea, the armored forces should be used as an assault force to attack the enemy's defensive position. The paratroopers would quickly block the enemy's retreat or reinforcements after landing. If Franco's civilian army could go up, they could eat up the enemy's divisions.
The saying that planes were the natural enemy of tanks had been recognized by the Prussians because the Prussians Air Force had a large number of skilled dive bomber pilots.
"General, we don't have time to wait any longer. Even if there are losses, it's normal.”
Wasn't it only the Japanese who liked to gamble? Why did the Prussians also like this kind of gambling war?
Now that he was the commander, it was up to him to decide whether they would succeed or not. Because of this, Li Zihao felt the weight of the decision. Should he agree to take the risk or wait for the arrival of the Vulture Legion and launch an attack on the enemy under their cover?
The biggest problem here was time. Who knew what would happen in this half a month?
Rommel and Stuart looked at each other. They were a little afraid that Li Zihao wouldn't agree.
They could tell that Li Zihao had never been a soldier before. It was impossible for them not to be worried that such an inexperienced general would lead them to war.
Fortunately, Li Zihao wasn't a stubborn person. He didn't blindly run to command the troops. Instead, he left it to the professionals.
