A black Horch?? Convertible in Rome, Italy's largest city, followed by a group of Mercedes-Benz cars; Drive all the way to Rome's Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain, St. Peter's Basilica, Piazza di España, the Colosseum, the Roman ruins, the Arch of Constantine and more.

Rommel, who had just taken possession of Rome in Italy, was in such a pleasant mood today for the first time to visit the sights of Rome.

"If only Lucy and my son were here now, they would love the scenery!"

Rommel, dressed in a fur coat with a narrow forehead and a double chin, muttered to himself as he looked out of the glass window of his car.

"Miss your wife, Lucy?"

At this moment, a majestic voice suddenly sounded beside him.

"Yes! Marshal Kesselring! ”

Hearing this, Rommel turned his head to look at Marshal Kesselring, who was sitting beside him, with a kind expression on his face, and smiled.

"Then take your wife and son to Rome for a visit! Anyway, now that we have full control over Milan, Italy's second largest city, and other major cities, most of those Italian troops have surrendered to us! ”

"Although there are still some Italian kings' army left, and some stubborn partisans continue to fight us; But those forces that are not to be feared, I believe that the forces of our empire will soon be able to eradicate them! ”

Kesselring replied with a bright smile in his military uniform.

Now Kesselring is not only the commander-in-chief of the Southern Theater of Operations in Rome, but also the commander-in-chief of the whole of Italy, as well as the commander-in-chief of the entire Western Front.

"Hmmm! I want to too! But didn't the Führer just give me a new task? I also need to prepare a large number of elite troops, and all kinds of military supplies and food to prepare for the counter-attack on North Africa. ”

"North Africa is where I lost to Montgomery, so I'm going to fight back there and get a brilliant victory, to restore my lost reputation, and even better!"

Rommel shook his head slightly, and his eyes blazed in response.

And at this time he was sitting in the black Horch?? the convertible, and the Mercedes convoy in which the guards behind him were sitting; It is also already driving past the Basilica of the Virgin Mary, St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums; Instead, drive slowly towards the Baths of Caracalla, the Roman Opera House, and the Trevi Fountain in Piazza Navona.

However, on this day trip to Rome, Rommel and Kesselring saw the most of the river Twere.

This river is the central Italian river, also known as the "Tiber", and is the third longest river in Italy after the Po and Adige.

It flows into the Tyrrhenian Sea after passing through the city of Rome, with a total length of 405 kilometers.

On the west bank of the Tvere River, St. Peter's Basilica can be seen from afar, in addition to the great historical buildings, sculptures and paintings, such as the Castel Sant'Angelo, the Bridge of Sant'Angelo, the Fountain of the Four Rivers, the Roman ruins, Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain (Trevi Fountain); Famous tourist attractions such as the Neptune Fountain in Navona Square, Plaza de España, the Fountain of the Broken Ship, and the Moorish Fountain, Roman ruins, and the Pantheon can all be seen.

So when Kesselring heard Rommel's heartfelt desire to regain his glory, he also glanced at the beautiful scenery outside the car window before turning his head to stare at Rommel.

"I'm sure you'll get what you want, because the Führer values you very much! So he's sent me to you today not only to take you on a day trip to Rome, Italy, to relax, but also to give you some surprises, but these surprises will not be known to you until we finish our day trip to Rome today! ”

Then Kesselring pretended to be a god and smiled mysteriously.

"Surprise? What surprises did the Führer have for me? ”

After hearing this, Rommel was puzzled and confused.

"You'll find out later, anyway, we'll be at Castel Sant'Angelo and Ponte Sant'Angelo soon!"

Kesselring looked out at the crossing of the River Tverre in front of their car, and the bridge was full of Bernini's creations; The beautiful and charming Angelo Bridge carved in stone by Angel smiled mysteriously.

In this regard, Rommel also glanced at the other party suspiciously, not knowing what strange things the other party was thinking, and he smiled so mysteriously.

The Ponte Sant'Angelo also known as the Hadrian Bridge is an ancient Roman bridge in Italy that spans the Tiber River. It was built in 134 AD by the Roman Emperor Hadrian to connect the city center with his newly built mausoleum, which is now known as Castel Sant'Angelo.

The Ponte Sant'Angelo is Bernini's work and is known as the most beautiful bridge in Rome. Roberto Bernini was a famous Italian sculptor and architect, a representative of the Baroque style, and the greatest master of art of the 17th century. The Pont Sant'Angelo is a five-hole stone arch bridge with 12 statues of angels, each holding an instrument of Jesus' torture.

That's why Rommel wondered why Kesselring was interested in Ponte Sant'Angelo and the main castle, which is circular and polygonal on the perimeter.

But Rommel held back the doubts and curiosity in his heart, and stared at the bridge of Sant'Angelo that was getting closer and closer.

Not far from the Pont Sant'Angelo there is a stone bridge paved with a marble surface, also spanning the Tiber, which is very similar to the Pont Sant'Angelo, but it is a three-hole arch bridge, the deck is much wider and can be opened to traffic.

However, Rommel and the others were in a car that drove directly to the Ponte Sant'Angelo.

But soon he knew the answer, for when he arrived at Castel Sant'Angelo, he had not yet disembarked with Kesselring; He saw thousands of heavily armed SS soldiers standing guard around him, and among them he saw his wife, Lucy, and his son, Manfred Rommel.

Manfred Rommel was a native of Stuttgart, Germany, a politician, orator, writer, and lawyer; He was the son of Field Marshals Erwin Johannes Jurgen Rommel and Lucy Maureen of Nazi Germany.

In later life, he was the former mayor of Stuttgart (1974-1996) and the former president of the German city newspaper Staple Zeitung.

"How did Lucy and my son end up here?"

Seeing this, Rommel looked at Kesselring in shock in the car and asked eagerly.

"This is one of the Führer's surprises for you, and today will be a great day for you to be reunited with your family; Of course, the follow-up surprises will make you stunned one after another, at least when I know that the Führer attaches so much importance to you, I am also very envious and jealous of you! ”

"It's really surprising that the Führer thinks so highly of you, if only I had such a good blessing as you! Marshal Rommel! ”

Kesselring looked at Rommel with envious gaze and smiled bitterly.

“.......”

Hearing this, Rommel didn't know what to say for a while, but at this moment, he was still very grateful to Chen Yanlong for reuniting their family.

"I will personally thank the Führer!"

Finally, Rommel also responded in a grateful tone.

"That's a must, you get out of the car first and see what kind of weapons and equipment the Führer has brought for you, in addition to letting your wife and son come here to see you! Don't make too much of a fuss after reading it, because I'm already too shocked, and I can't wait to switch identities with you now! ”

Kesselring smiled bitterly in a sour, envious tone.

In this regard, Rommel also looked in the direction of his wife with great curiosity for a moment, and was looking for the shadow of the new weapons and equipment that Kesselring said.

Soon he saw a plane parked not far from his wife and son, which he had never seen before.

"What kind of plane is that?"

Looking at the majestic plane in front of him, Rommel's eyes flashed, and he asked Kesselring excitedly.

"One of the new types of armament that the Führer gave you, it received the name AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter! ”

Kesselring replied with still envy and jealousy.

Immediately, his eyes were also hot, staring at the AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter with good combat performance and strong firepower.

And in his heart, he quickly circled how to get Chen Yanlong to also deploy some AH-1 "Cobra" helicopters for him to use for his aviation units.
