Seven Hundred and One Envy

"It is impossible for me to meet the head of state you mentioned." Montgomery squeezed out a wry smile. As a defeated general, he would not even meet the supreme leader of the other party, even if he could return to himself alive. His hometown is no longer something he can control.

He looked at the sea outside Alexandria's military port, looked at the calm Mediterranean Sea, and sighed: "Hey... If those officials and lords hadn't engaged in some checks and balances that we don't understand, maybe you are just a weak country now That's all."

Those countries that were regarded as life and death enemies by the British or the French or even the Soviets have now been defeated by Germany. Those world powers that once criss-crossed Europe have all become part of the German territory at this time. It can be said that if the British always wanted to cheat the French, then Germany would not have developed in the cracks. It can be said that if France and the UK wanted to cheat the Soviets, Germany would not have time to rearm and have a chance .

Maybe if that's the case, Germany is still just a weak follower of Britain and France. Akado or Hitler of the previous life will not sit on the throne of the head of state. The German army is still weak, and the world war will not happen again. Explosion—Unfortunately, there is really no what if in history. Now that Britain has lost, there is no way to fight back.

"Actually, the opinion of the Supreme Command is to serve in the occupied area in southern England and accept our protection along the way." Rommel reached out his hand to signal the opposite reporter to stop taking pictures, ending this grand camera shooting. These photos will be sent to Berlin, Germany in less than ten days, and then printed and distributed in newspapers. The whole world will know that Rommel, the desert fox, has once again won an unprecedented victory.

Montgomery saw Rommel walking away, and followed him with his hands behind his back, shook his head and said in a very calm tone: "I know it myself, even if you promise me to go back to the British Isles, You will not worry about me, if you are really worried, there is nothing wrong with me going to Germany."

"In fact, it's not as good as you think. Because you surrendered to me here, your family members have been detained by the British royal family, and you will be sent back to the northern British government. I heard that Prime Minister Chamberlain of the northern British There is just a lack of a military expert." Rommel walked and said: "But now, at least you are my guest of Rommel, what do you want to drink? I still have half a bottle of whiskey in my hand, are you interested? "

"Are you going to let me go back to northern England? Are you not afraid that I will find a chance to escape?" Montgomery was taken aback when he heard the decision of the German high-level to deal with him, and then asked immediately.

Rommel laughed before answering his question: "Mr. Montgomery, just a few days ago, it seemed that it was not difficult for you to leave Alexandria in a submarine. You did not escape at that time, and it is even more impossible to escape now. You must know that the methods of your puppet regime in exile are not clean, and if you go back, you may be imprisoned or even hanged."

Rommel looked at his watch,

Then he said something to the adjutant beside him, and then looked at Montgomery again: "Let's watch our military parade first, Your Excellency General. If you haven't forgotten what happened to Dr. Einstein who defected to the UK, then you still Forget about running away. There is no safer place for you now than the Third Reich."

Ten minutes later, the German army began to pass through Alexandria, one tank after another rumbled past. The Leopard tank made Montgomery amazed. It was the first time he watched this advanced medium tank so closely. It can be said that This tank perfectly balances the mobility, protection and firepower of the tank, and is a powerful weapon that all commanders dream of.

The tracks of the Leopard tank rolled over the dusty road section by section as the wheels rolled. Many of the pale yellow desert paint had been cracked and peeled off due to haste, but these industrially produced crystals could still be maintained very well. The high attendance rate is much better than the M4 Sherman tanks that the United Kingdom and the United States hastily launched.

That slender 75 mm caliber cannon is even more pleasing. Montgomery even touched the barrel with white circles on the record, and then praised the Leopard tank that was ordered to stop. crew members.

Following the Leopard tank into the city, there are 40 Tiger tanks. This advanced tank with a more aggressive appearance and thicker armor is more fresh in the British memory than the Leopard tank. They are all heavy tanks. The so-called heavy tank Matilda of the British is no different from a baby in front of the Tiger, and is often shot through by a well-trained German team at a distance of about 1,000 meters.

"Are these tanks designed by your head of state?" Of course, Montgomery has studied a lot about Akado, and he also knows that the Germans launched a large number of classic weapons manufacturing projects around 1925. The more shocking inside information is that Accardo, who had not yet become the head of state at that time, personally presided over the research and development of a series of weapons, and these weapons have undoubtedly become evergreen trees on the battlefield today, and are deeply loved by all those who have used them. Soldiers loved these weapons.

"You can put it this way." Rommel nodded proudly: "I was a cavalry officer at the time. At that time, I even felt distressed that my own country was completely over. Now it seems that when the head of state found me at that time, it really changed. my whole life."

Montgomery remained silent, watching the steel torrent composed of eight-wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicles and half-track transport vehicles quickly passing in front of him. Today's German army has a very high degree of mechanization, at least the troops used for appearances can definitely be said to be comparable to their fully mechanized counterparts many years later.

On the armored vehicles in the middle row, the bodies of the commanders were all exposed. They stretched out their arms to Rommel who was reviewing them, shouted General Rommel, and passed by Rommel's car. On both sides of these armored vehicles, BMW motorcycles followed one after another, and the German scouts on the vehicles drove to the distance at high speed with their weapons on their backs.

The silent Montgomery came back to his senses after a while, smiled apologetically at Rommel, and then murmured resentfully: "Why wasn't such a person born in England? Why wasn't such a person born in England?" Woolen cloth?"

In fact, the infantry individual weapons of the German army in North Africa are very general. Most German soldiers are using Mauser 98k rifles as their weapons. Because of the consideration of saving transportation burden, a large number of automatic weapons were not transported to North Africa, but stayed on the Eastern Front. However, at present, this North African army can still be said to be a rare elite division in Germany. They fought all the way from Tunis to Tripoli, then from Tripoli to Benghazi, and then set out from Benghazi to capture Tobruk. From Tobruk to what is now Alexandria.

"Take Cairo! Take Suez!" shouted German infantrymen, square after square, carrying their weapons through the streets of Alexandria, a slogan that might have been just a few months ago. A dream, now for the German army and the Italians, it is just a battle goal that is close at hand.

The neat steps, the guns carried on the shoulders form a neat forest, as people continue to move forward, they are constantly shaking slightly from side to side. They can proudly claim that they are the most powerful infantry in the world, because except in the Asia-Pacific Except for the Japanese who are showing off their might in the region, they have beaten the infantry of all the military powers in the world-and they have never been defeated.

The artillery unit of the African Legion is actually nothing good, and even some of them are captured American 155mm howitzers and British 140mm cannons. There are only a small number of Friedrichshafen rocket launchers, and some towed 150mm caliber artillery are really from Germany. The most guys are actually Italian cannons, which lag behind American cannons by an entire era in terms of performance.

There are 6 soldiers sitting on each of the simple open-top barrel cars. The soldiers on the co-pilot are holding a p-38 submachine gun, which is very rare in the country. The four members behind are all using Mauser 98k rifles. If you insist on choosing a unit to compare with the German army in another time and space, then the infantry of this African Legion is definitely the closest to the historical equipment level.

"I really envy you, having the opportunity to command such an elite unit." The so-called insider watches the doorway, and the layman watches the fun. Montgomery, an expert in commanding troops, saw the horror of this army at a glance. Although the clothes were covered with sand and dust, and although the leather boots were already dull, the eyes of each of these German soldiers showed indifference. Come on, it is a kind of indifference that sees through life and death, it is a kind of eyes that kill people, such soldiers are definitely one of the best.

Coupled with those top-notch tanks and armored vehicles, the combat effectiveness of this unit was unexpectedly strong. Montgomery had been fighting with this unit for half a year, so of course he knew how terrifying this opponent was.

"Now, this army exists to protect you and your country. Don't you suddenly feel relieved? We are no longer enemies, but neighbors. You are the general of Northern Britain, and I am the general of the Third Reich. The two of us have many opportunities to sit together, drink coffee and listen to music." Rommel looked at the African Army under his command, and said triumphantly to Montgomery beside him: "Tomorrow I will go south to attack Cairo, and I will not send you there. Port Matruh!"
