The breakfast was not huge, but the chef did his best.

When the communications staff officer rushed over, Bai Zhizhan was trying to eliminate the breakfast that the chef had made especially for him, an oil tea with Yuzhou characteristics.

Li Mingbo stopped the communications staff officer.

After one glance, he was stunned until Bai Zhizhan took the message from his hand.

"It can't be a mistake, right?"

"A verification telegram has been received from the Navy Command, and there is nothing wrong with the battle report." The communications staff officer answered very neatly.

Although this feeling of being slapped in the face was very uncomfortable, Li Mingbo did not take it seriously with the communications staff officer.

It's a matter of facts, and there's no need to get involved in anything else.

The communications staff officer was also very knowledgeable, and slipped away before Bai Zhizhan could speak.

At this time, Bai Zhizhan had already finished reading the message.

Actually, there is only one sentence.

The coalition forces of the Confederate group have landed near Casablanca in the Northern Xuan region, crushed the local garrison, and seized control of the vital port.

If anything, the army of the Locke colony guarding Casablanca did not resist at all.

A few minutes later, Bai Zhizhan and Li Mingbo returned to the commander's bridge.

Zhou Yongtao returned to the commander's bridge ahead of schedule and turned out the map.

Subsequently, a new message came from the command of the Navy.

The nearest Riman army to Casablanca was about 300 kilometers away and had only one infantry regiment, with a total strength of less than 2,000 men.

It was all infantry, there were only a few dozen trucks, there were no tanks and other armored weapons.

The implication was that the Manman army could not launch an immediate counterattack.

Fortunately, the landing coalition forces were not able to advance eastward immediately, and at most they could reach Tangier, south of the Zhila Strait, which had little effect on the fierce fighting that was taking place near the Shifan Canal, and the Manan army did not need to send troops westward, at least not for the time being.

From a military point of view, the Allied forces landed in the Northern Xuan area, and chose Casablanca, in fact, to avoid the main force of the Man.

The only way to achieve this is to obtain a bridgehead in the south of the Naola Strait.

Fundamentally, it is actually to strengthen the control of this strait, which connects the land and the sea and the sunset, and has great military and political value

In addition, the political significance of this battle is even more obvious.

Although they were all soldiers, everyone immediately thought that after the successful landing, the Locke colonial government in the Beixuan region was likely to waver, and perhaps into the arms of the alliance, at least to remain neutral, and then make a choice after the situation became clear.

The point is that the Locke Officer Corps, which had been exiled to the Kingdom of Bran, had already formed a provisional regime called "Free Locke".

Unsurprisingly, after the Confederate forces gained a foothold, representatives of Liberty Rock would arrive at the front and shout out to the local colonial administration.

In this way, the Empire will inevitably strengthen its precautions here.

For other reasons, it was necessary to put pressure on the colonial government of Locke by increasing military investment to prevent the colonial garrison, which had a strength of up to 500,000, from becoming an enemy.

If it really starts, the threat of this 500,000 Locke army will never be small.

Even if it is 500,000 infantry, if it is to be suppressed, it will need to mobilize at least 100,000 or even 200,000 troops, and it will consume a lot of ammunition and materials.

Obviously, in the Beixuan region, the total number of troops in the Beixuan region is less than 200,000, and what is most lacking is ammunition and supplies.

In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the control of the country of Locke.

Prior to this, there were less than 500,000 troops stationed in the country of Locke, and almost all of them were infantry units, many of which were reserves. In the main occupied areas, the local police are responsible for maintaining social order, and the Partman occupation forces are only responsible for dealing with underground rebels.

Now, the local police will definitely not be reliable, so they will have to increase the number of garrisons.

All in all, for the Empire, the landing of the Allied forces in the Beixuan region is a threat that cannot be ignored and must be taken seriously.

Then, it will inevitably have an impact on the battle on the other side of the Xifan Canal.

If anything, collecting money will have an impact on the Kingdom of Raleigh.

The key is in Malta.

If the Allied forces were moving well in the Northern Xuan region and quickly advanced to the Tunis area, they would be able to provide strong support to the Bran army that was attacking Malta. Relying on the front-line airfield in Tunis, the Royal Navy of Bran could withdraw the task force.

If anything, the Hindan army is still holding out in Malta, relying on the aviation on the Tunisian side.

Because of the threat from shore-based aviation, the Royal Navy's task force has not dared to approach Malta, and the support for the landing force has been quite limited.

After the loss of Malta, the Hindan army would certainly not be able to hold the Beixuan region.

However, Bai Zhizhan was concerned about why the Allied forces landed in the Beixuan region?

Also, after the successful landing, why did you quickly advance in the direction of Lu Xinhai?

Just relying on ground forces?

This is obviously not possible.

Even if the landing is successful, ground forces will advance along the coastline, using sea for supplies as much as possible, and building enough airfields along the way.

In this way, it is impossible to push forward much faster.

Only with the direct support provided by the fleet, especially air cover, will the ground forces be able to advance quickly and hopefully reach Tunisia.

Well, where is the fleet of the Confederate bloc?

The key point is that Casablanca is hundreds of kilometers away from Telok Fortress, and Telok Fortress is too narrow to deploy too many combat aircraft, so during the landing phase, it must be carrier-based aviation that provides air cover, and there must be a task force to participate in landing operations.

The task force of the Royal Navy of Bran is still in the land heart sea, and it has not gone to the sunset.

It was not until noon that I received the latest news from the command of the Navy.

There was indeed a fleet supporting the landing operations, and it was the Nuland Navy's task force.

According to the information provided by the Empire, there are at least 3 small aircraft carriers and more than 10 escort aircraft carriers in the northwest coast of Casablanca.

In addition, perhaps, there are several small aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy of Bran.

Because the landing operation had not yet ended, the fleet was operating in the setting ocean and did not enter the land heart sea, and therefore did not enter the strike range of the Manman Air Force.

Although the specific situation of the enemy fleet has not been confirmed for the time being, the main reason is that it was discovered that the fleet was a Homan submarine and that the reconnaissance planes of the Fermian Air Force had not yet arrived, there was already reason to believe that the task force under the command of Sp had already gone there and was still the absolute main force supporting the landing operation.

In Zhou Yongtao's words, if the Nuland Federation had not sent troops, the Bran Kingdom would not have had the courage to land in the Beixuan region at all.

Obviously, this is also the key to the Nuland fleet's failure to appear in the Northeast Fanyan Ocean.

However, the information provided by the command of the Navy is not very reliable, or it has not been confirmed.

Wait until the evening, and receive the exact message.

After losing more than a dozen long-range patrol and reconnaissance planes, the Euman Air Force confirmed that there were indeed three small aircraft carriers of the Nuland Navy in the enemy fleet.

In addition, there are two fast battleships of the Newland Navy, "North Carolina" and "Huazhou".

It was only at this time that Bai Zhizhan's mood was a little better.

Although he stayed up for a day, what Bai Zhizhan needed now was not to eat dinner, but to go to sleep, and he hadn't closed his eyes for 2 consecutive days.

In any case, at least there is no possibility of a sneak attack by the Nuland fleet.
