"I agree with you!"

Looking at the expectant expressions of all the officers, Eisenhower frowned, and after a moment of silence, sighed and agreed.

Seeing his agreement, all the officers and operational staff officers were greatly relieved.

Because for them, it is still a very beautiful thing to be able to go to the front line to die.

And at this time, the front of Montgomery, Sicily.

"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! Da-da-da-da! ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The German MG42 machine guns, constantly spewing red tongues of fire, devoured the earth-shaking bombardment of more than 2,000 cannons on the artillery position not far behind them.

With the ferocious artillery fire of the German army, the positions of the British and American allies were constantly covered by dense and whistling shells, which were devastated by the bombardment, with heavy casualties and corpses everywhere.

But even so, the artillery positions of the British army, the trenches that had just been constructed, the minefields, and the armored defensive positions were all raining down on shells; Desperately bombing and destroying as if it were not going to die.

In the midst of such a furious German counterattack, Montgomery's improvised operational headquarters was at the moment in a state of chaos, with the sound of telephone calls, telegraph typewriters, and the noisy shouts of various officers one after another.

At this time, Montgomery not only received a telegram from Eisenhower agreeing to evacuate Pantellea immediately, but was also receiving bad news from all fronts.

However, in the face of the increasingly ferocious artillery counterattack of the German army, Montgomery's field communication also began to change intermittently.

"Your Excellency, Commander! The German counterattack is getting more and more ferocious! Our armored forces are also fighting a fierce resistance battle with them in the southeast! ”

Operations Staff Officer Andri, beside Montgomery, said anxiously.

"If the battle continues like this, then let's retreat immediately! I have just received Commander Eisenhower, and I have evacuated Pantellea! And he also sent me a telegram saying that if the war situation was unfavorable, both Patton and I had the right to evacuate our troops safely! ”

Montgomery said gloomily, unhappy and unwilling.

"This ...... If we do retreat, how should we retreat? Is the retreat carried out according to the original landing site? Your Excellency, Commander! ”

After hearing this, the combat staff officer Andri was slightly stunned in surprise, and then hurriedly asked.

"It's safe there, it's convenient for us to land and get on the ship, just retreat there!"

"Also, I wonder how Patton's troops are doing now? Did they encounter the Germans like we did, or were they fighting? ”

Montgomery waved his hand and said with a piercing gaze.

"They were also calculated by the German army, and now they are also fighting hard with those German troops! And I heard that there were many casualties! The situation is not optimistic! ”

Operations Staff Officer Andriy reported what he knew.

"Hmmm! What was the number of the German army they encountered? How many people are there? ”

Hearing this, Montgomery was surprised.

"It was Hitler's most elite SS unit, and it was also the most elite of the famous SS units, with at least about 60,000 troops, and it was also an elite regiment equipped with many new weapons!"

Operational Staff Officer Andriy continued to report with a slightly sympathetic expression.

"No, it won't! I can't imagine that there is anyone worse than us! Encountering Hitler's most elite SS troops, it seems that the 15th Panzer Division and Hermann's troops we are facing now are really not the worst! ”

After hearing this, Montgomery even showed a gloating smile and said with a smile.

"Yes! What a wretched troop! It seems that their battle is really not easy to fight! ”

Operations Staff Officer Andri also sighed with a sigh on his face.

You are really miserable in this world, but there are people who are even more miserable than you.

"Miserable! Commander Montgomery! The Germans launched a general attack! They are surrounding us, ready to encircle us and annihilate us all! ”

At this moment, another combat staff officer, whose face was bloodless, sweaty, and with a gunshot wound on his body, ran to their side in panic and shouted in fear.

"What! How did they suddenly launch a general offensive! ”

Hearing this, Montgomery suddenly shouted in horror.

"Kill! Come on! ”

"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! Da-da-da-da! ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

But his horrified voice was soon drowned out by the sound of thousands of German soldiers charging into battle, and the sound of gunfire on the ground.

Under the cover of huge artillery fire, and with the support of the Air Force's aircraft, the 15th Panzer Division, and Herman? The Goering Division and other German troops, braving the artillery fire and gunfire of the British and American troops, attacked the defensive line of the British and American troops like a tidal wave on the suffocating, smoke-filled battlefield, and opened fire on a large scale.

Rows of German soldiers wearing German-style steel helmets in World War II, as if they were not going to die, and the British and American troops who were defeated and retreated, constantly rained down with bullets, and even fought a white-knuckle battle with bayonets.

At the same time, under the cover of anti-aircraft artillery fire, those tank armies were advancing towards the loading units of the British and American troops, encircling and annihilating them.

For a time, the entire battlefield was attacked by the German army menacingly, and a hellish scene filled with gunsmoke, flames, and corpses were everywhere.

"Quickly ask me for air support from the aviation unit, and we will evacuate immediately! Don't fight these madmen! Fast! ”

In the face of the wolf-like general attack of the German army, Montgomery did not immediately order his troops to fight to the death with the other side, but immediately and decisively ordered the aviation department to retreat under cover and temporarily avoid the German general attack.

While Montgomery began to panic and give the order to evacuate, Guderian personally led his troops to join the SS troops who were going to fight with Patton, and the troops besieging Patton.

Because Guderian had already received the battle order sent to him by Chen Yanlong, requiring him to lead all the troops in Sicily to annihilate one or two British and American divisions, or even more troops, before the evening.

Therefore, Guderian also went to war in person, because he also wanted to inflict heavy losses on these British and American troops.

Moreover, he also wanted to know how far Chen Yanlong could go to the maximum combat potential of these elite troops under his command.
