"Is our submarine group and the fleet coming?"

Gotthard. Commander Heinrich asked lightly to Schulder, commander of the 15th Panzergrenadier Division. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And as the president said this, he was surrounded by a large group of guards, armed to the teeth.

and several T-54 tanks are stationed in the vicinity to keep them safe.

"It should be almost there, I just communicated with the Navy Command!"

Division Commander Schulder replied.

"How are our troops withdrawing now, and how many people have not been evacuated!"

Commander Heinrich continued to ask.

"Seventy-seven-eighty-eight who have been evacuated, only my two grenadier regiments and an armored battalion are left!"

Division Commander Shurd glanced at the troops who were resting in the distance and replied honestly.

"That's good! We must evacuate our troops and all our weapons and equipment from Pantelleria as soon as possible! Because this is an order of the Führer! Moreover, the current British and American actions are very strange, not only have they evacuated all the ships and troops that are preparing for the landing operation. ”

"And it's been a few days, and they haven't even moved at all! I'm sure they should be brewing some big combat operation! If we can't get all the troops out in these days, I'm afraid there will be a terrible battle to be fought! Maybe we'll be dead and wounded! ”

Commander Heinrich breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and explained.

"I think so too! It's a pity, we still have a lot of new weapons and equipment, and we haven't carried out actual combat yet! And those БМ-21 rocket launchers are not enjoyable! ”

Division Commander Schulder said in a regretful tone.

"Don't worry! There are many battles to be fought! Moreover, the Führer has already assembled the elite units of the Waffen-SS in Sicily, and we are now being sent to Sicily, where we are going to change equipment and special training. ”

"Because the Senate wants to fight a big battle with Britain and the United States in Sicily, then you can fight as much as you like! It's better than fighting the British and American troops on such a small island, because we can't even bury all our family here! Don't forget that the British and American naval and air forces are much more than me, and they replenish them much faster than us! ”

Looking at the division commander Schulder, who was a little reluctant to leave, Commander Heinrich said with a wry smile.

"Hmmm! Don't worry, I agree with all these things you said, and I just had a little emotion! ”

Division Commander Shurd smiled slightly.

"By the way, have all the Cheetah self-propelled anti-aircraft guns handed over to us by the Führer have all arrived safely at the SS operational headquarters in Sicily?"

Commander Heinrich suddenly remembered with a little unease.

"Yes! Helbert of the 5th SS "Viking" Panzer Division? Admiral Giller, who personally supervised the reception! ”

Division Commander Schulder nodded in affirmative.

"That's good! These new types of weapons and equipment will definitely not be able to be obtained by Britain and the United States! Their power is really strong, if they get it, then it will be very troublesome and unfavorable for our future battles! ”

Commander Heinrich said solemnly.

"I think so too, but I believe Helbert of the 5th SS "Viking" Panzer Division? Admiral Giller, you will definitely protect these new Cheetah self-propelled anti-aircraft guns! Because in a few hours, the Führer will arrive in Sicily and personally supervise all the troops stationed in Sicily for special training! In order to prepare for the future Battle of Sicily, he can inflict heavy losses on the Anglo-American allies! ”

Division Commander Shurd grinned and said happily.

"Battle of Sicily! I'm looking forward to it! It is really unknown how many Anglo-American allies we will be able to defeat in this battle! ”

Commander Heinrich suddenly looked up at the white sky, felt the cool feeling of the gentle breeze blowing in his face, and smiled slightly.

"Our submarine forces and transport flotilla are here! Everyone, get ready to board the convoy and leave here immediately under the escort of the submarine group! ”

And at this moment, suddenly an officer who was in charge of waiting for the arrival of the German U-boat shouted excitedly.

At the sound of his shout, Commander Heinrich and the division commander Schulder immediately took command of the remaining German troops; A landing convoy of transport ships was carried out, preparing for the evacuation of the island of Pantelleria.

"Hey! By the way, Commander Heinrich! So those Italian troops on the islands, should we take them with us? ”

And when the last German soldiers landed safely on the convoy, the division commander Schulder suddenly remembered.

"Don't! Those scumbags of Italian troops, they will be fine! Because once the British and American forces carry out a large-scale sea, land and air counterattack, I am afraid that the battle will not start for long, and they will fully surrender! So we don't have to worry about them at all! They're smarter than we are! ”

Commander Heinrich immediately didn't think about it, so he shook his head and shook his head.

"Commander, you're right, I almost forgot about their character, which has no will to fight! Ay! What a loss of face for the Romans! ”

Hearing this, the division commander Shurd also smiled bitterly and shook his head in agreement.

The two of them then boarded the transport ship as the last evacuees under the protection of several Germans armed with submachine guns.

Together with the soldiers of the 15th Division, who were happily chatting on board, they left the island of Pantelleria by boat.

As their convoys moved farther and farther away from the island of Pantelleria, a fierce local war was raging on the Eastern Front.

General Rotmistrov, the Soviet general, is leading a group of 150 T-34 tanks to rush towards the German position 10,000 meters away in a wedge-shaped tactical attack.

At the same time, more than 100 T-34 tanks were in reserve, waiting for operational orders behind Soviet positions.

While the Soviet tank group and grenadier regiment were advancing cautiously, there were still many Black Panther tanks, Tiger tanks, and Ferdinand tank destroyers hiding in the nearby woods in the area they crossed.

They are playing the role of hunters, waiting for the arrival of their prey, the Soviet tank units.

In addition to these tanks, the Germans deployed 20 powerful 88-mm guns.

"All tank gunners, take your place for me; At 3 o'clock, high-explosive shells, fire! ”

It's just that before the Soviet troops reached the German ambush position, their commander took the lead in giving the order to open artillery for battle.

As his artillery order was issued, from the muzzles of the Soviet tanks, a sound comparable to thunder erupted, mixed with flashes of fire.

"Oops! The Soviets attacked first! Everyone, get ready, at 5 o'clock, armor-piercing shells, 250 yards, fire a counterattack! ”

As soon as he saw the Soviet troops suddenly attacking first, the German tank commander was also anxious and immediately gave the order to counterattack in the command vehicle where he was sitting.
