Among all the commanders, Rommel was absolutely bold and eclectic, and on the battlefields of Europe, Rommel experienced the great power of the blitzkrieg, and in North Africa, of course, he had to give full play to this advantage!

If it is fair to say, Rommel's actions this time are somewhat dangerous.

Rommel left behind the long logistical supply line and charged directly with the tank troops, and if the British army cut off his logistical line, he would be quite uncomfortable.

It can be said that Rommel's current advance is a bit risky and desperate, but looking at the past few years, almost every German advance has been the same risk.

The German army, as if they were gamblers, it's just that their luck is quite good, and every time it's right!

The Italian division, which is no longer a noodle army, has significantly improved its combat effectiveness, and their will to fight has been renewed. So, if the British troops inside Alexandria wanted to break through, it would be very difficult.

Since the main forces of the British army were in Alexandria, taking advantage of the weakness, it was precisely the advantage of the tank forces.

Rommel stood on his Panther 3 tank and watched his troops advance.

Montgomery guessed right, he set off in the evening.

Concealed during the day and hurried at night, they did this not because they were afraid of the British attack, Cairo was almost an empty city, and the garrison in the city could not stop Rommel's attack at all.

Rommel was afraid that the King of England would run away.

He rushed straight to Cairo, just to make a great contribution, in London, in England, his own army did not capture George VI, let him run to Egypt, at that time, Rommel had this idea, captured George VI!

Without George VI and Churchill, there would be no British resistance, and Edward VIII, as the rightful king of England, would rule over the vast United Kingdom and its colonies.

This battle is for the sake of stability in the future, and it is worth taking some risks!

Although it was at night, for them, it was the same as during the day, as if walking on the ground, now the moonlight was quiet, and it could be seen dozens of meters away, and at the same time, even if it was pitch black, they had infrared headlights, which were high-level night marching and combat equipment.

"We'll be in Cairo for another hour." Spreading out the map and looking at the signs on it, Rommel's assistant Lorraine Schhofen said.

It's just over twenty kilometers from Cairo, and if they start at full speed, it's just half an hour, and now, they're going to move slowly, they're going to control all the arteries of Cairo, they're going to control the bridges over the Nile, they're going to make sure they're blocking the whole of Cairo, and that's going to take their time.

Rommel nodded: "Yes, we are only one step away from success, now, let's take this last step." ”

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a huge explosion sounded in the distance.

This voice made Rommel stunned for a moment: "Damn! What's going on? ”

This explosion will be able to expose his troops!

Soon, there was a more intense exchange of fire in front, and the report on the radio was also heard soon.

"An Egyptian army has been spotted in front, the size is not yet known, and it is in the midst of an exchange of fire with the Egyptian army."

Egyptian army!

As a colony, Egypt was once colonized by many countries, and now, it is a British colony, and Britain itself has a small population, so in order to maintain its rule, in Egypt, there are also troops under British rule.

It's just that Egypt's own army is also very weak, so in the battle some time ago, the British army was carried on the front line by itself.

And now, Rommel is quite unsuccessful, and actually collides with an Egyptian army.

This Egyptian army is also too unsmooth, they are only a second-line army, just two days ago, they were ordered to garrison Giza, guarding the west gate of Cairo, as a result, just after being transferred, they encountered the armored forces of the main German force!

If they didn't know anything and obediently became prisoners, it would have been fine, but after they came to Giza, they set up sentry posts on the road to check passing vehicles and pedestrians.

According to the above meaning, in this case, there may be deserters who will pour into Cairo, and there may also be civilians who have fled, and if they all pour into Cairo, it will bring problems to the security of Cairo, and it will be even more detrimental to the morale of the military.

On the other hand, of course, it is to prevent the infiltration of German agents, the king, the prime minister and others have come to Cairo, the Germans will definitely come to assassinate, and the arrangement of various sentry posts will at least make the penetration of the Germans more difficult.

However, they absolutely did not expect that as soon as the sentry post was arranged, there would be tanks coming to smash the field!

After all, it was dark night, and the two sides did not see it very clearly, and it was too late for the tank troops in front to find out that obstacles had been set up on the road.

They were also seen by the opposite side, and in an instant, the Egyptian army on the opposite side threw grenades at them.

Yes, their instinct is to throw a grenade! At a distance of tens of meters, grenades can fly over, and at the same time, they have no other anti-tank weapons!

When the grenade exploded, the German tank crew, not ambiguous, stepped on the accelerator and rumbled up, crushing several Egyptian soldiers in front of him into a pulp and crashing into the barricades.

At the same time, they were exposed.

"Full speed, full speed, call me to Cairo!" Rommel's voice came over the radio: "Storm the palace of Farouk and capture George VI alive!" ”

Now that it's been exposed, let's have a hard time!

Having received the order, all the tank crews launched a madness.

The driver opened the hatch overhead, revealing his head, under his feet, and on the throttle.

At both ends of the tank's hull, two bright headlights were also turned on, and they were already exposed anyway, so they simply broke the jar and broke it.

Although there is a night vision device, however, with infrared headlights, with photocells to observe, after all, it is better to look cool directly with headlights, or visible light, one by one tanks, the engine rumbled, with lightning speed, pounced on Cairo, the capital of Egypt!

Now, they have to compete with speed, the capture of Cairo is not a success, only the capture of George VI and his wife, the capture of Churchill alive, this is considered a consummation!

This night is destined to be thrilling!

In downtown Cairo, the royal palace, when the news came, it was already twenty minutes later.
