Temporary piers have been erected at the landing site on the island of Malta, and assault boats and landing craft are no longer needed for landing troops and materials, which has greatly accelerated the landing of the 7th Panzer Division.

The troops who arrived on the island of Malta in the early stage have surrounded Valletta, and there are only 5,000 remnants in Valletta, a lonely city, and it is not easy to take it down.

Rommel continued to send troops to land on the island of Malta, just to put strong psychological pressure on the British troops in Valletta, so that they would surrender without a fight, which was what Rommel wanted.

The Germans besieging Valletta demanded that Brian surrender, but Brian refused without hesitation, and the die-hard man still refuses to surrender.

The news of Brian's refusal to surrender was reported to Rommel here, Rommel still had six days, and if the remnants of the five thousand British troops resisted desperately, it would take at least four or five days for Rommel to completely take Valletta, and the number of dead was definitely higher than the number of defenders annihilated, because this was the street fighting, and the street fighting was always the most tragic and bloody.

Rommel thought about it again and again and decided to go outside Valletta in person, and now the direct flight brigade already has 24 FA223 helicopters, all of which are produced in France, and all the helicopters produced in Germany have been forcibly bought by other troops.

Rommel, a small lieutenant general, was not qualified to participate in the distribution at all, and now all the people in Germany knew the huge role of helicopters, and all the troops were crazy about the FA223 helicopters.

Although the FA223 is an ugly transport helicopter, it has a four-ton load, after an 88 anti-aircraft gun is split into two parts. The FA223 can be easily lifted anywhere. The other is the reinforcement and supply of the front line. It's also quite quick and easy.

Rommel flew outside Valletta by helicopter, but in fact, the Germans did not completely besiege Valletta, because the German landing troops were not large, so the German troops besieging Valletta used a point encirclement.

Rommel personally arrived at the front, and the soldiers on the front line were of course rejoicing, and when Rommel asked to go to the front line to shout, the field commander Luxembourg was killed.

Snipers in Valletta only need to find Rommel, a German general in a lieutenant general's uniform. They're not excited yet! There is also the artillery of the city of Valletta, and the covering fire of the British artillery is also quite accurate.

Luxembourg's concerns are also justified, and Rommel doesn't want to die in vain, since he can't go to the front in person and shout through a tin horn, but he can use amplification!

There is certainly no such thing on the battlefield, a set of loudspeakers from World War II and a generator, that is not light.

In the absence of helicopters, such a set of amplification equipment would certainly not be able to be delivered to a place a hundred kilometers away in a quick and timely manner.

With helicopters, which can take off and land vertically, there is no need to think about whether there is an airfield or not, Rommel sent a telegram. The logistics department just sent it by helicopter.

More than an hour later, the amplification equipment Rommel needed was delivered by helicopter. The accompanying technician immediately began to set up the amplification equipment, while Rommel was preparing the draft of the speech.

After the technicians had installed the amplification equipment, Rommel's call script was ready, and Rommel began to personally persuade the remnants of the British army in Valletta to surrender:

"Dear soldiers in Valletta,

Good evening everybody, I am Rommel, commander of the German-Italian Afrika Korps, and I have come with the hopes and prayers of your loved ones, and I have come with sincerity for peace.

Everyone comes to this world, they are raised by their parents with hard work, and the hardships are unimaginable, and the hard work of your parents for you is also indescribable. ”

Rommel, the traverser, did not directly persuade him to surrender, nor did he need to be aggressive, Rommel played a flute under the moon of learning Han Xin, blowing away the 100,000 soldiers of the overlord of Chu.

When the British troops in Valletta heard that it was Rommel, the Nazi god of war, who had come to call them out in person, they quickly held their breath and listened carefully to the content of the legendary general's shouting.

Although Rommel's English is average, Rommel's opening sentences evoke feelings of missing their parents.

When people are in a desperate situation, their minds are also the most vulnerable, and if you stimulate them at this time, the person in the desperate situation will become hysterical, and thus become a madman who will not surrender to death.

If there is a hope and a longing for those who are in a desperate situation, then the desire to survive of those who are in a desperate situation is particularly strong, which has been specially studied in psychology in later generations.

Rommel's few simple words evoked the nostalgia of the remnants of Valletta's British troops, most of whom were young people in their twenties, and it was impossible for them not to miss their parents after being away from home for so long.

What's more, they were still in a desperate situation at this time, and the longing was even heavier, and Rommel's words played a fuse, so that the homesickness of these remnants of the British army immediately broke out.

Many of Valletta's British soldiers covered their mouths and began to weep, their tears rolling down to the ground like beads of broken thread.

In the low-level military camp of the United Kingdom, tears are also rolling in the eyes, and when this kind of life and death is goodbye, anyone who thinks of their relatives will burst into tears.

Even Brian, the commander of the British army, after listening to Rommel's opening remarks, thought of his gray-haired parents, and Brian knew at this time that honor was not as important as family affection.

Rommel's shouting continues:

"All the British brothers in Valletta, think of your parents, who are always looking forward to your safe home, and they are always praying to God that you will come home safely.

There is no tragedy in the world than the loss of a child in old age, your parents have worked hard to raise you, they absolutely do not want to receive your death notice, they want you to live happily, not to send you to die.

Brothers of the British Army in Valletta, think of your gray-haired parents, who are always looking forward to and waiting for you to return home safely. ”

At this point, Rommel said that something unexpected happened to Rommel, and the German officers and staff officers of all levels in the provisional command began to cry.

What is the situation, Rommel scolded secretly, this did not make the enemy cry, but said that the soldiers on his side cried, so how will this battle be fought in the future?

In fact, the British troops in Valletta have long been crying, countless British soldiers are crying loudly, and the entire British army in Valletta, whether strong or cowardly, without exception, burst into tears and whispered the names of their parents.

Many British soldiers have laid down their weapons and sat on their combat posts and wept, and those low-ranking British officers did not reprimand those soldiers who laid down their arms and wept.
