Chapter 879: I must win this battle
"Our shelling is going well! Commander Mandolfer! β
Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp stood beside Mandolfil and smiled happily.
Especially when looking at the artillery position of the American army just now, the black smoke billowing from the bombardment of the German artillery position, and the sound of screams one after another; Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp's mouth curled even more, and his smile was as bright as it was.
"Hmmm! Yes! β
"The commander of our heavy artillery group, Beckenbauer, and the commander of the rocket artillery, Joachim Loew, commanded the shelling very well! This time they have all made great contributions, and I will definitely report to the FΓΌhrer and reward them both! β
"Even the entire artillery unit and rocket unit, I feel that they should be rewarded!"
Mandolfil nodded in satisfaction as he used his military binoculars to observe the battle covered in artillery fire.
"Then should we immediately get our tank and armored units fully armed?"
Seeing Patton's satisfaction, Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp became even more complacent.
"That's a must!"
"This is a great opportunity for us to kill Patton's troops by surprise, and we must not miss it!"
Mandol also said with a knowing smile.
"Yes! I'm going to get our armored and tank units into combat right away! β
Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp hastened to agree.
"Hmmm! Just wait for my battle order to be issued, this battle is our chance to make a great achievement, we must not lose easily, we must crush Patton's 7th Army and Allen's Great Red 1st Division! β
Mandolfil said with a slight nod.
"In addition, we need to keep a close eye on the troops of Montgomery in Messina, and in Palermo, the capital of Sicily; The forces there won't lose to Patton! β
"According to our latest intelligence, Eisenhower's total strength is about 2.5 million, so this battle between Italy and Sicily is about whether our empire can resist the occupation of Italy by the British and American allies, or the big battle of attacking France!"
"In other words, these battles that we are fighting now must not be lost!"
"The consequence of losing is the total collapse of the Western Front, which will allow the British and American armies to march straight into France and endanger the security of our empire itself!"
Mandolfer's eyes suddenly froze, his face changed, and he immediately reminded the other party to fight seriously and not to be carried away by the small victory in front of him, and underestimated the danger and combat strength of Patton's troops, as well as the terrible consequences after the defeat of this war.
"Yes! I will definitely go all out to command the operation, and I will definitely not look down on any British and American troops! Commander! β
After hearing Mandolfir's overtones, Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp also nodded wisely in agreement.
"Hmmm! Go and give me orders! β
"After our artillery fire is covered, most of our armored troops and tank units must give Patton's army and armored units a surprise attack in the most rapid combat state!"
"We must not let the artillery cover of a successful sneak attack and waste the best opportunity to destroy the enemy in vain!"
Mandolfer was satisfied.
Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp also nodded respectfully again, and after a few kind words, he hurried to do as Mandolfer had ordered.
"No matter what the cost, I will definitely win this battle!"
"At the very least, in the Battle of Sicily, let Patton's troops give a certain degree of trauma, and of course it is better to be able to inflict heavy damage on Montgomery's troops!"
Looking at the distant Colonel Rudolf Mulenkemp, Mandolfer also muttered to himself with more determination to fight.
After that, he continued to use military binoculars, observing every move on the battlefield, and preparing to adjust the combat orders and actions of his troops at any time.
