Chapter 0732: Civil War III

Fort Kebir, the former barracks of the barracks, became a dead place.

Killing the closest support force to the coast, Wang Kui led the team to quickly disappear into the fields and dense forests, leaving no clues.

They were a bunch of 'dead people,' with no identity, no name, like an ownerless ghost.

The next target is Fort Segil on the coast, where they will take out the transport ships and the rebels stationed in the town and keeping watch from east to west of Tangier.

............

Opposite bank, Spain, Algeciras.

Fighting raged throughout the South, engulfing every city, even the city on the edge of the Inner Harbour.

The British Navy's favorite 'naval club' in the city was in ruins, and the streets were littered with unclaimed corpses.

Although it was a civil war, the rebels were not at all polite to their native compatriots, and burning and looting occurred from time to time.

To the northeast of the local government building is the famous Boulevard Santa Maria Maggiore, where the Spanish branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. is located.

"How's the situation out there?" said Samo, who had disappeared for many years, appeared inside the branch building, looking out of the window.

"It's the same as before, the rebels are hunting down the Republicans in the streets, robbing the citizens, robbing the gold shops... These damn robbers. Williev said with a face full of anger, so much gold, it would be nice if he let him lead people to rob it.

"Has the other party been here?" Satsuma had no interest in gold, he wasn't here to rob.

"Yesterday, it was the fourth time. "Williev was helpless.

The headquarters had obviously made a deal with Franco before, so why didn't they accept employment now?

Although there is an order from the headquarters, it is not allowed to join the war directly.

But the purpose of Franco's hiring this time was to protect the security of the rear coast, that is, the Strait of Gibraltar.

"There is more consideration at headquarters, and executing orders is what you should do. Satsuma gave the other a deep look, not explaining the relationship.

With the support of Germany and Italy, Portugal also fell to Franco's rebel forces.

A large number of soldiers passed through Portuguese territory to fight the Republican Army on the Western Front, and with the support of German and Italian weapons, the Western Front immediately became a terrible meat grinder.

The United States practiced "neutrality," and countries such as Britain and France, which saw the strong power and industrial base of Germany and Italy, were also feared by them.

As a result, Britain and France soon declared to the outside world, 'not to interfere in the Spanish Civil War, which is a matter for Spain itself, but embargo all arms and ammunition.' ’

Such an announcement almost drove Manuel insane, not to help him fight the enemy, but to deprive him of the source of his weapons.

There was little hope for Manuel to get any more help from the international market, and the Anglo-French claims of perfection fueled FXSISM.

As a result, Manuel held frequent meetings to find people who could help him, except for S.H.I.E.L.D., which had secretly reached a verbal agreement.

Manuel was first enlisted for aid from the Soviet Union, which had the same communist typoise.

More than 200 aircraft, more than 80 tanks, 400 artillery pieces of various types, and more than 500 military personnel were directly involved in the battle to protect the Spanish Republic.

These supplies were only the first batch of Soviet aid, and according to the agreement reached between the two sides, a steady stream of weapons and soldiers would be sent later.

With the support of the Soviets, Manuel was both happy and helpless.

Everything had a price, and so did his enlisting the help of the Soviet Union, which wanted to make Spain a socialist state.

This led Britain and France to become hostile to the government of the Spanish Republic, which had cooperated with the Soviet Union, and the question of the Strait of Gibraltar remained unresolved.

If the Strait of Gibraltar could not be held hostage, the rebels would continue to send troops from Morocco.

They were also able to recruit a large number of soldiers in Morocco, and there was another group of dead soldiers, and Morocco was full of people who did not have enough to eat and were willing to sell their lives in the army.

These men were not at all merciful in killing the Spaniards, and they were much more active and crazy than the Spanish rebels.

The land has been occupied by the Spaniards, and now they themselves eat dogs, and they can still let them go to the opposite side to kill the Spaniards, how can the Moroccans not be happy.

But after all, the Republic controls the country's air force and navy, as well as the soldiers who are constantly recruiting everywhere, and these strengths will not be easily defeated.

To claim the ultimate victory, Franco knew he had to get more support.

Whether it is in terms of money, weapons, ammunition and manpower, more and more abundant assistance and support are needed.

Italy was so active in this that it followed the example of the Soviets and began to send troops directly into Portugal, making the war on the Western Front even more confusing.

If the West was in a wait-and-see mode, now they have completely abandoned the government of the Spanish Republic, which was inclined to the red regime.

Compared to the threat of civil war and Germany, the Red regime was much more threatening, at least in the eyes of the West.

So, all of a sudden, Franco started to become popular.

There were even national newspapers on his side, publicizing the inaction, brutality and corruption of the 'Government of the Republic'.

Public opinion was in the hands of Western countries, and news in Spain was directly 'blocked,' and Manuel began to suffer a terrible blow in terms of speech.

The Soviet Union, which supported Manuel, saw that this could not be done, and began to trumpet the policy of the republic, its ideas, its achievements during its time in power, and so on.

Just when the two sides were fighting from war to public opinion war, there were amazing changes in the Strait of Gibraltar.

Two transport ships and a submarine secretly dispatched by Germany sank while patrolling the Strait of Gibraltar, the cause of which is currently under investigation.

It is said that there were people who saw the fire on the surface of the sea and the spray of the waves caused by the explosion, which was supposed to be man-made or a battle, but there is no evidence to prove this.

The German and Italian fleets began to intensify their patrols of the Strait of Gibraltar and were discreetly guarding the port of Gibraltar, which belonged to the British.

No matter who looks at it, who else could sink a German submarine in the Strait of Gibraltar at this time, but the British Navy stationed here?

But just as they were keeping a close eye on the British Navy in the port of Gibraltar, three transport ships were again blown into the sky between the straits.

This time, the Germans and Italians were like crazy, and sent destroyers from their homeland to Gibraltar to find out who was their enemy.

No matter who the other party is, this time the beam is over, and the Germans and Italians secretly swear in their hearts that they must teach each other a bloody lesson.
