"No matter what the price is paid, we will definitely win this Sicilian landing! Otherwise, it will be a big blow to the morale of our allies! ”

Eisenhower finally suppressed his anxiety and said firmly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"We're going to win! Because we've sent so many troops this time, and we've got troops in the British rear! ”

The staff officer was also full of confidence.

"By the way, is there a large-scale counterattack on the Soviet side?"

Eisenhower nodded, and suddenly remembered.

"Yes! Our informants are closely monitoring their every move! And every move of the Germans! ”

The staff officer affirmed.

"Then how many troops has the Soviet army deployed to deal with the German army on the Eastern Front?"

Eisenhower asked.

"More than 3 million, and their planes have also dispatched 10,000, and now they are deploying troops to the frontline positions, preparing to carry out a big counterattack on Kharkiv and other places first!"

The staff officer continued to respond.

Hiss!

Hearing this, Eisenhower's face was moved and he gasped.

Because he did not expect that the Soviet army, which had just experienced several large-scale comrades-in-arms, would still be able to send so many troops out with such wealth.

At this moment, Eisenhower also deeply felt that the Soviet Union's war potential was indispensable.

"It's really unexpected that the Soviet army can still have so many troops and planes to use! But no matter what! They are all our allies, and they are also the main allies on the Eastern Front, so we must continue to vigorously assist them in military supplies! ”

After Eisenhower's shock, he said calmly.

"We'll be back, Commander!"

The staff officer replied.

"And what was the reaction of the German troops on the Eastern Front?"

Eisenhower continued to ask.

"The Germans are retreating!"

The staff officer said with a solemn expression.

"Hmmm! Fall back? How could they retreat again? This was not Hitler's style! He is a madman who fights for every inch of land, how could he let his troops retreat before the battle has even begun? ”

Eisenhower was shocked, his eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't believe it.

At the same time, he stared intently at the staff officers, as if he wanted to see through the other party.

"But this unusual behavior of the German army was confirmed by our spies and Soviet spies!"

The staff officer hesitated.

"Then what did Stalin do in response?"

After Eisenhower saw that the other party was telling the truth, he was silent for a moment and said with a solemn face.

"The abnormal retreat of the German troops on the Eastern Front must have been a big conspiracy that Hitler came up with! We absolutely have to be on guard! Or you will suffer a big loss again! ”

For a long time, Eisenhower's eyes were sharp.

"That's right! Where are the Germans retreating now? ”

Before the staff officer could reply, Eisenhower suddenly continued to ask.

"Moder's troops are undergoing a secret evacuation in Kharkov, and as for their destination, it is not yet known! All the areas occupied by Manstein's troops have been evacuated, and their whereabouts are now unknown! ”

The staff officer said embarrassedly.

"Then you should send more people to the occupied areas of the German army and reconnoiter with the troops! I must know every move of the Germans on the Eastern Front! ”

Eisenhower said with a sharp gaze.

"Yes! Commander! ”

The staff officer hastened to reply.

The staff officers then reported to Eisenhower on some of the other battlefields, and Eisenhower listened attentively with a blank face.

At this time, more than 3,000 planes of the British and American air forces, including 2,000 bombers, had entered Italian airspace and flew quickly over Rome.

And at this moment in Italy, many regions and cities are in a state of peace; Live a lively and happy life.

It's just that what they didn't expect was the British and American air forces that had entered the Italian mainland; The army is being divided into several lines and goes to all the big cities of Italy to prepare for bombing.

The bombs carried by these British and American air fleets were more than 1,000 pounds of high-explosive bombs, as well as a large number of fuel bombs, and napalm.

At this time, in the bustling city of Rome, people are living their lives with peace of mind and happiness.

Of course, there are many people who have been unemployed by Mussolini's fascist government, and poor people are living in misery.

But whether it's Italians living in peace and contentment, or Italians living in dire straits, they are living their own lives in their own homes at this moment, or doing their own things outside.

It was just that just as these people were doing their own thing, suddenly a piercing air raid siren sounded over the whole of Rome.

"What's wrong? Why is there an air raid siren all of a sudden! ”

"It's not going to be an air raid! But we haven't tried to be attacked by an air raid yet! ”

"Huh! That's where it came from! It's like a big bird! ”

"I saw it too, and there was more than one of them! There are a lot of them! Look! ”

"It's a bomber! It's an enemy attack! Run! ”

"Is it an air raid? Who is coming to attack us? ”

"It's the planes of the British and American troops, I see the logo of their fuselage!"

"How did the planes of the British and American troops suddenly appear here in our capital! Isn't our Air Force the first in the world? I don't know where they went, what they ate, how they let the enemy into our airspace! ”

"Stop talking nonsense! Run! They bombed! ”

When the air raid sirens sounded all over the world, many Roman citizens were talking in surprise, but they soon turned into screams of terror.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

"Boom! Thundered! Rumble ......"

Then a great burst of screams, wails, and cries of pain erupted, and the deafening sound of bomb explosions shook the mountains more and more.

Before long, the center of Rome was immediately on fire and smoke; The sound of a huge explosion resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the entire night sky.

At this moment, all the major cities of Italy were massively bombed by the British American Air Force, except for the famous capital of Italy, which was frantically bombed by the British American Air Force.

Although Italy also hurriedly sent a lot of fighter jets to attack.

However, the combat capability of Italian fighters is simply not able to engage in a suppressive battle with advanced aircraft such as the British and American P-51 Mustang fighters.

Moreover, Italy can mobilize less than 400 aircraft in a short period of time.

Therefore, in the face of more than 3,000 British and American aircraft, it is simply sending sheep into the mouth of the tiger and dying in vain.
