After a long time, Chen Yanlong gradually calmed down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hitler! Hitler! Look at the mess you gave me, it's really rotten and smelly! ”

"Not only to the Jews and the common people of other countries, but also to the common people of other countries; The horrific massacre of one's own country in the next two years; It's about to be overwhelmed, and at the same time, you have to let your people fall into the great escape and catastrophe after the war two years later! ”

"Whew! Faced with so many troublesome problems that are difficult to solve, what do you think I should do now? I was really miserable by you this time! I really don't know God, why did you have to arrange for me to be reborn into your body! ”

"But now that this is the case, I have to find a way to survive, and I want to build Germany into a strong and peaceful country, so that people's living standards can be improved!"

"But in order to really survive in the future, and not to repeat the miserable scene of Berlin being captured by the Allies; Then I have to find a way to build and deploy an elite army in Berlin that can belong to me and obey only my orders, to defend Berlin! to protect my life! ”

"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm most afraid of what if; Only by taking precautions can we turn defeat into victory! ”

"The first step must be to put an end to the brutal persecution and massacre of Jews, Communists, democratic progressives, and inhabitants of occupied areas, as well as prisoners of war, by the SS."

"As for the second step, it is necessary to build up a force at once and enter Berlin; No matter how bad the fighting was at the front, this unit could not be sent out to fight at will, because I wanted them to defend Berlin to the death. ”

"Of course, in addition to training them to have actual combat experience, you can let them go to the battlefield first and fight in real combat! But we can't all the troops, we must keep half of them and send half of them."

After calming down, Chen Yanlong stood up, took some hot coffee to refresh himself, and stood by the window of his room; Looking out at the dark night sky, he stared and muttered in thought.

Soon after, Chen Yanlong went to sleep again.

This time he didn't know if he was really too tired, or if he let go of the baggage in his heart, anyway, he never had nightmares again.

The next day, it was just dawning.

As soon as Chen Yanlong woke up, the first thing he did immediately was to bypass Kesselring, the commander-in-chief of the German army on the southern front; and the Italian High Command, directly and privately to the German Army First Class General; A battle-hardened veteran, Hans-Jürgen von Arnim, made a phone call.

Of course, Arnim's field phone number, he asked Martin Baum to give him to Kesselring, the commander-in-chief of the German forces on the Southern Front.

Although Chen Yanlong did not like his selfish and uncooperative character for his behavior of preserving his strength at the critical moment of the Battle of Kesselring Pass, and his uncooperative attitude after the war, which was widely criticized by the historians.

But now he only wants to get as many German troops as possible, especially those with actual combat experience; Save it, so that he can have more strength in future battles.

In this way, he can survive in this World War II, which is about to be reversed and lost.

It's just that Chen Yanlong at this moment is also very clear that the records of historical data in later generations; By early April 1943, the Anglo-American Allies had succeeded in destroying the Anim's defensive line in southern Tunisia, and on 7 April, the two Allied forces had successfully joined forces south of Sfax, and the Anim had to order the withdrawal of troops to the northeastern corner of Tunisia.

At this time, Arnim was already in a dilemma of having a pursuer in front of him, facing the sea with his back, and poor supplies, but a week later, he received an order from Kesselring that Hitler and Mussolini should hold out to the last minute of Army Group Africa. At the same time, Kesselring also ordered the administrative staff to be added to the battle sequence.

But Arnim was now left with only 9 depleted German divisions (each with an average strength of only 2/5 of the normal number) and 5 almost incapacitated Italian divisions, while his opponent had more than 20 well-equipped divisions. This has already doomed the tragic fate of Arnim and the Afrika Korps.

On April 22, 1943, the Allied 18th Army Group launched a "final attack" against the Tunisian defenders, and by May 1, the Germans had retreated to the line from Bizerte to Enfidawil, leaving only more than 70 tanks in the entire African Army Group. By this time, the Germans had almost exhausted all ammunition and fuel, except for a few shells.

On 6 May, the Allies launched the final blow, and although the Arnims still tried to organize a resistance, they were unable to withstand the Allied attack. By noon on the second day, Tunis City and Bizerte had fallen to the Allies, and Anim led the remnants of his army to retreat to the Cape Bang Peninsula east of Tunis.

On May 9, German planes landed in Africa for the last time, bringing with them Hitler's order that Army Group Africa should "fight to the last man." However, Arnim did not do that, and he understood Hitler's order to "fight to the last bullet".

By this time, his troops were already running out of ammunition and food, so surrender became a natural thing. On 12 May, Arnim was captured alone in the headquarters of Army Group Africa, but he refused to surrender on behalf of the entire army because he had lost contact with his troops. On the afternoon of the second day, the Italian 1st Army announced its surrender. At this point, the battle in North Africa finally came to an end.

The German 5th Panzer Army, the Italian 1st Army and the German African Army were annihilated. 130,000 German officers and soldiers, including 14 German generals, and nearly 120,000 Italian officers and soldiers were captured. This number of prisoners even exceeded the number of German prisoners at the end of the Battle of Stalingrad three months earlier.

The German 10th, 15th, 21st and "Hermann. Goering's Panzer Division, 90th Light Division, 164th, 334th and 999th Infantry Divisions, Mandolfer Division, 19th, 20th Anti-aircraft Artillery Division. 1st Infantry Division, 13th Infantry Division of the Young Fascists, 16th Infantry Division of Pistoia, Suppelga, Italy; The 80th Airborne Division of La Spezia, the 101st Motorized Division of Trest, and the 131st Panzer Division of Centaur were all wiped out in Tunisia.

"It's the morning of May 7, 1943, and I don't know how many German troops survived the Battle of Tunis; And if I intervene in the retreat now, how many more of them will be able to safely retreat out? Or history is still developing as it was, and in the end there are still 250,000 German and Italian troops; On the northeastern peninsula of Tunisia--- Cape de Ponda, surrender to the Allies? ”

Before the phone was connected, Chen Yanlong thought to himself in his heart.

After a few moments, the call was finally connected.

"Hey! Who is it! Is it Commander Kesselring? I'm so busy right now! I'm laying out a defensive line against the Anglo-American allies! ”

As soon as the phone was connected, Anim was on the phone, shouting loudly.

"I'm Hitler!"

After listening, Chen Yanlong responded very briefly.

"Ahh Yuan, Führer! Why did you call so early in the morning? ”

Arnim was stunned for a moment and stammered.

"How are you doing on the Bang Kok Peninsula now?"

Chen Yanlong went straight to the point with a single knife.

"No, not so good! We are short of ammunition and tanks, as well as fuel, and support! But even so, I will stick to your orders at the Führer and fight to the last man! ”

Anim was suddenly depressed, pessimistic, and said with a bitter face.

"I don't need you and your troops now, give me to fight in Tunisia to the last man; I give you a death order now! From now on, you must do everything you can to lead the remnants of your troops that died in the Battle of Tunisia; Immediately withdraw from Africa and enter Italy; Or find a way to break out from elsewhere and rush back to Germany. I'll find a way to send the air force and navy to support your retreat! ”

"No matter what, I don't want to see our 130,000 German officers and soldiers surrender to the British and American allies! As for the decision of the 120,000 Italian officers and soldiers, I will ignore it! ”

Hearing this, Chen Yanlong used all his strength and roared murderously.

"Retreat, retreat? Yes, is it true? ”

After hearing this, Arnim, who was still in worry, suddenly raised his head sharply, his eyes widened; Incredibly, he slurred.

"Of course it's true, could it be that I called you in a hurry in the morning to joke with you!"

Chen Yanlong still responded with a murderous attitude.

"Victory, Führer! I, I'm going to find a way to retreat! ”

Receiving Chen Yanlong's affirmative reply, Arnim responded excitedly and loudly.

Although at this moment, he didn't know how his troops should break through and retreat safely; But he was still very excited, Chen Yanlong did not let him and his troops fight to the last man.

In the face of the desire to live, who does not want to, who does not like.

Especially for Anim, who likes to preserve his strength, he was the first to raise his hand in agreement.

"Don't let me down! Admiral Arnim! ”

Hearing Anim's joyful shout, Chen Yanlong warned with a little displeasure.

"Yes! Monarch! Victory, Führer! ”

Arnim replied, still gleefully.

Hearing this, Chen Yanlong hung up the phone angrily.

Immediately, he immediately made a telephone call to Kesselring, commander-in-chief of the German forces on the Southern Front; He was asked to find a way to assist the Arnim in their retreat, and at the same time ordered him to immediately transfer the Waffen-SS Panzergrenadier Division back to Berlin, Germany, where he was to meet with it in person.

For Kessellin, who had not woken up in the morning, as soon as he received such an inexplicable call from Chen Yanlong, and after the order; His whole person changed into a stunned and incomprehensible look for a while, and his eyes were round; The mouth is open in an O-shape, and the head is full of 100,000 whys; Standing next to the telephone, motionless.
