In fact, Chen Yanlong didn't want to constantly go back on his word, obviously the original plan was to let Rommel lead his troops to fully occupy North Africa, especially the oil in North Africa.

But when he received the operational information that the British and American forces might once again carry out a large-scale sneak attack on the Italian mainland and counterattack the French mainland; He first asked Rommel to lead his troops to attack the port of Ceuta, and cooperated with Dönitz's aircraft carrier fleet in the English Channel, attacking the British garrison and the aircraft carrier fleet that came to support.

The aim was to control the entire Mediterranean so that the Anglo-American fleet could not enter and exit the Mediterranean freely unless they made a detour.

At the same time, it is also to tell Britain that the land, sea and air forces that Germany now has are absolutely capable of attacking the British mainland, so as to threaten the British army to concentrate most of its overseas forces and local forces on their home defense, so that the British and American forces want to attack the Italian mainland and the French mainland again, and the battle plan will be disrupted.

Of course, his current plan was to let the British and American troops mistakenly go to the German army, and would carry out a British landing operation to disperse part of the British army's land, sea and air forces, and at the same time let Kesselring and the Nordic commander Admiral Edward Dieter speed up the construction of the pre-war fortifications of Carnossi, that is, the Gustav Line, and the construction of the Winter Line.

Because Chen Yanlong planned to inflict heavy losses on the scale of the British and American forces in the upcoming Battle of Cannosi, the British and American forces would not be able to launch a large-scale counterattack again in a short period of time and open up the second battlefield in Europe.

After that, Chen Yanlong could save troops and use them to concentrate on attacking the Soviet army or attacking the British mainland.

In short, it is impossible to continue the two-front battle, because as long as all the forces are gathered to defeat the enemy on the Western Front or the Eastern Front first, and then continue to collect the remaining enemy troops on the other front, then the German army's chances of victory will be even higher.

And if the British and American troops can be severely damaged in the Battle of Carnosi, then Chen Yanlong is afraid that he will first group forces to attack the Soviet army on the Eastern Front, and fight until Stalin agrees to sign a peace agreement, and then immediately turn to the British mainland until the British surrender.

Of course, in the end, it depends on the situation, or Chen Yanlong will take advantage of the victory to pursue the battle of the Western Front after the British and American troops were severely damaged in the Battle of Canosi, and he will directly solve the Western Front battle first; and attack the British mainland, fight until the British surrender, and obtain a certain amount of interest and wealth, Chen Yanlong will concentrate all his forces; to fight against the Soviet army, settle the war on the Eastern Front, and then build the European Union.

The above plan is Chen Yanlong's most real idea at this moment, so whether it is Rommel or Guderian, he has not mentioned a word about these high-ranking German marshals and officers.

Because he didn't want his wishful thinking to be reconnoitred by British, American, and Soviet spies.

While Chen Yanlong was thinking about these things, the AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter he was flying in also arrived in the Normandy area, and he could also see the English Channel in the distance, where fierce naval battles and air battles were underway, as well as the earth-shattering sound of artillery and explosions heard there.

"The battle seems to be fierce, right? I wonder how the battle is going on Dönitz's side now? Is it our Navy that has the upper hand? Or did the Anglo-American navy have the upper hand? ”

"In addition, when will the reinforcements sent by Cunningham and Eisenhower arrive in the English Channel to deal with us?"

When Chen Yanlong was flying in an AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter, and all the binoculars were observing the Anglo-German naval battle in the distant sea, he was a little worried.

Because although the navy at hand of Dönitz has obtained an advanced aircraft carrier fleet and carrier-based aircraft group, the German Navy, which uses submarines as the main force in the middle and late stages of World War II, does not have many officers and men who are proficient in aircraft carrier fleet operations.

Although he also used weapons and equipment to exchange high-ranking naval officers such as Ozawa with the Japanese to teach the German Navy how to conduct aircraft carrier training.

However, due to the fact that these German Navy were in the professional aircraft carrier training base established by Chen Yanlong, the training time was not very long; Therefore, this is also Chen Yanlong's concern that the combat strength of the German Navy will be strong in the outside world.

"Everything is that the training time is too short, if I can have more training time, then Germany can get more elite troops regardless of the navy, land and air force!"

The more Chen Yanlong looked at it, the more depressed he became.

Moreover, he can't see the battle situation in the English Channel clearly, because he still maintains a certain distance from the battlefield, in case he is discovered by the air force of the British and American forces, and thus gets involved in the battle.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Yanlong ordered his AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter group, all fighter groups, and bomber groups to return to Italy, and let Kesselring meet with them.

Because he had to consult with Kesselring about the preparations for the Battle of Cassino, and how to deploy the 50 German divisions that were about to be mobilized, especially how many armored divisions and infantry divisions should be deployed for defense.

As well as letting those troops conceal themselves, counterattack and encircle the British and American forces that are about to sneak attack.
