429 Panzer Division

In January 1872, the war on the Italian Peninsula was completely quelled, and the Han army under Lin Haoda, who brazenly attacked the Kingdom of Italy, defeated all the established Italian Kingdom 'regular army' on the Italian Peninsula in less than one month, and then spent more than two months to stabilize the place, encircle and suppress the mighty Sicilian guerrillas, and establish absolute domination over the Italian Peninsula!

With the return of Pope Pius IX to Rome, the spontaneous resistance in the Italian peninsula became completely weakened, and the Sicilian guerrillas, who had been the most violent, were also driven into the deep mountains and old forests, not to mention attacking the Han strongholds, and even the ordinary Han army transport baggage teams were unable to attack.

Of course, Lin Haoda's successful occupation of the entire Italian peninsula was inseparable from the anti-Han alliance's temporary focus on France.

As the main force of more than 100,000 people of the Austro-Hungarian Empire stepped into France, the Kingdom of Switzerland, the English Empire, the German Empire, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Belgium, and the Kingdom of Spain all sent small forces with more symbolic significance than practical significance, and jointly played the banner of the anti-Han alliance and marched towards the city of Paris, where there were few Han troops stationed!

The French cities, which were not subordinated to Lin Haoda, had to join the anti-Han alliance under the pressure of the anti-Han alliance troops that entered in large numbers, and sent a small number of national guards to attack the Paris region.

While Lin Haoda was in control of the Italian peninsula, the Han army's Paris base in France was also under siege, and it was only a matter of time before the city of Paris fell......

Of course, Lin Haoda didn't care about the gains and losses of the French base, because he had already received a beautiful prompt tone from the all-out war system at this time:

[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission of breaking through the capital of the Kingdom of Italy, occupying the Italian peninsula and submitting to the Pope, please set up a chariot factory and a military camp in the city of Rome, and redeem the mission reward - a fully mechanized armored division of World War II German standards.]

The next task is to establish a dictatorial empire and defeat the anti-Han alliance, occupy all of France, claim at least all of France and the territory of the Italian peninsula that is now occupied, and eliminate the civil resistance guerrilla groups.

Reward: A fully mechanized heavy elite armored division at the end of World War II, with the Leopard and Tank IV as the main force, and the tank armored regiment will replace the formation of light armored vehicles and motorized units. 】

The moment Lin Haoda received the task reward, he knew the specific establishment of the standard German-style mechanized armored division awarded.

It numbered about 12,000 men, and was armed with basic infantry with improved Mauser rifles, individual grenades, and officers' pistol command knives, and the division's armament was light and heavy machine guns, 50 mm mortars, 75 mm rapid-fire infantry guns, and 105 mm and 155 mm self-propelled howitzers.

Combat vehicles include military trucks, German tank III, light bulletproof armored vehicles, and three-seater armed motorcycles with machine gun buckets.

Among them, there are more than 150 German-style No. 3 tanks that Lin Haoda is most concerned about! There are more than 100 light bulletproof armored vehicles and more than 1,300 armed motorcycles!

There are also more than 1,000 military trucks, and it can be said that the little fuel provided by Lin Haoda's all-out warfare system is simply not enough to drive so many combat vehicles into battle.

Fortunately, after the all-out war system was given to these troops, it also opened up the one-stop construction technology for the production of fuel oil such as oil extraction plants and refineries, and gave a large number of engineers with professional knowledge, Lin Haoda only needs to draw enough labor and enough construction materials to go to the oil field for construction and mining.

However, in rewarding this mechanized armored division, the Total War system eliminated a large number of useless anti-aircraft units and some unneeded heavy tank units of the original historical space-time armored division, and replaced them with enough fuel reserves to support a large-scale battle.

However, even so, Lin Haoda had to give up the temptation to immediately complete the mission goal and attack France.

Because in the Italian Peninsula and France, where the fuel industry base is zero, Lin Haoda simply cannot obtain excellent oil fields that are easy to exploit and produce, and his armored division must lay a fuel production area in the early stage when it has sufficient fuel reserves if it wants to continue to become a killing machine, instead of relying on the pitiful fuel supplies regularly issued by the all-out war system!

Completing the task of occupying France, although Lin Haoda can add another elite armored division, but the armored division needs to be fuel-driven, and if there is not enough fuel to have more tanks, it is just an immovable artillery battery for Lin Haoda......

Lin Haoda did not have a navy, and if he wanted to occupy the treasure land of the Middle East, which was rich in oil, he could only push it all the way from the territory of present-day Austria-Hungary......

In other words, Lin Haoda had to defeat Austria-Hungary first, rumble through their territory, and then enter the territory of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and break through Constantinople, the capital of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, before entering the later regions of Syria and Iraq......

Needless to say, the Austro-Hungarian Empire had already declared war on Lin Haoda and became his mortal enemy, but the Ottoman Turkish Empire had always had a silent and neutral attitude towards Lin Haoda's forces, and the Ottomans seemed to be happy to see a series of European powers being beaten by Lin Haoda......

Although the current Ottoman Empire is far worse than it was at the beginning, it is not difficult to defeat the Ottoman Empire because of its vast territory, large population and army, but it is extremely difficult to occupy it and consolidate its rule......

Perhaps, after Lin Haoda rushes all the way to the Middle East, the land he occupied along the way will be lost again, and the connection with Italy will be cut off again into two enclaves!

It's just that Lin Haoda cares about this?

As for how many civilian casualties will be caused by the gains and losses of the occupied areas, Lin Haoda will not care even more......

Anyway, the dead are all 'foreigners', and in Lin Haoda's eyes, they are just a bunch of cold numbers.

"Well, although it is a bit presumptuous to push it like this, it is the safest way, even if I can't know the specific location of the oil fields in that part of the Middle East, with the rich oil reserves there, it won't take long to find out, and then, I'll still be the emperor of Italy now.

It's time for white Europeans to see the real Yellow Peril! ”

Lin Haoda clasped his hands and muttered to himself as he looked at the strategic map.

This time, he's going to make the whole continent tremble for him!
