"Everybody's paying attention, everybody's paying attention. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Sha Jin, who was sitting in the cabin, tilted his head slightly, looked at the Tunisian port below through the cabin, clenched the walkie-talkie in his hand, and shouted: "We have reached the sky above the target. The fighter unit dropped the bomb and went out to prepare for the battle. Bomber units look for targets to attack. ”

The hundreds of thousands of Allied troops stationed in the port of Tunis are now on the verge of collapse. In order to compete for the opportunity to get on the ship, the soldiers of various countries would even open fire on their own allies. Bullet pressure from officers and gendarmerie units had little effect.

When an army in a desperate situation is faced with a sudden glimmer of life, no one will take the initiative to give up the opportunity to others. As for the idea formulated by the officers to block the Ming army layer by layer to buy time for the retreat, it really became an idea.

The Ming army will naturally not let go of this great opportunity in the face of such a great opportunity. Massively bombarded the port of Tunis, especially port facilities, by army warplanes. Even the fighter units of the air superiority loaded small bombs on the wings to bomb. The warships and transport ships that rushed to transport personnel and materials were handed over to the fighters of the HNA to deal with.

"Directly ahead of the target, Allied air fighters, began to meet it." After Sha Jin finished speaking, he put down the walkie-talkie in his hand, raised his hand and patted his goggles, operated the joystick and shook the wing a few times, then stepped on the afterburner and rushed out first. Dozens of Ming Fighting Falcon air superiority fighters threw away the bombs hanging under their wings and whistled and accelerated to meet them.

In order to save the hundreds of thousands of troops besieged in the port of Tunis, the Americans, the French and even the Germans spared no expense to invest a large number of ships and warplanes to provide cover for the port of Tunis. The fighter planes flying from all over the country mixed with the fighters of the Daming Navy, the army and the army, turning the entire sky into a pot of boiling hot porridge.

Near the harbor area, thick with thick black smoke and burning debris, groups of Allied officers and soldiers huddled together, looking eagerly at the makeshift pier in the distance. The ships docked there and the jumble of small boats that constantly traveled back and forth between the shore and the distant abyssal were their only hope of escape.

Of course, there are airports in the port of Tunis where planes can take off and land, but the transport planes that take off there are not only dangerous, but also not for the little people like them to get into.

Because of the bombing of the Ming bombers, the port area of Tunisia, which was originally very well-equipped, became a ruin. In particular, the night before yesterday, the high-speed mobile fleet of the Mediterranean Fleet of the Ming Navy, consisting of four heavy cruisers, one light cruiser, and six destroyers, suddenly attacked the waters off the port of Tunis, and poured fire on the port area of Tunisia for nearly an hour.

Before the Allied battleship group could rush in, these Ming warships, which had destroyed numerous facilities in the port area, swaggered and retreated at high speed. However, the Allied battleship was ambushed by the Ming submarine force that had been hidden for a long time in the dark night, and two heavy cruisers were sunk. This led directly to the Allied Navy's order that large warships should not approach the waters near the port of Tunis at night.

Because of the destruction of the harbour facilities, large ships could not dock close to the port. It is only possible to use small boats to transport people back and forth. The plank road that the sappers rushed to repair could only dock ships of several hundred tons. This made the already nervous Allied officers and soldiers even more angry and panicked.

People can do anything under heavy pressure, and all kinds of fire and infighting make the Allied officers helpless. The occasional gunfire near the harbor and the thunderous shelling of the distant battlefield brought an endless sense of gloom to the place.

"Knock knock!" The anti-aircraft artillery units deployed near the port operated anti-aircraft guns made in various calibers and began to spew flames into the sky, trying to stop the frenzied bombing of the Ming bomber troops.

Although the Americans have already developed proximity fuse anti-aircraft shells, and have officially begun production. However, because the time to put into production is too short, the output is not much. What's more, these first produced shells were first supplied to the U.S. Navy. After all, they have to face the threat of the powerful Daming Pacific Fleet directly.

In order to defend the American mainland, the Americans gave all the new anti-aircraft artillery shells produced to the navy, not even their army, let alone support the allies. Therefore, although it seems to be a very hot fight, the actual effect is not ideal. Most of the pilots of the Daming fighters are old fritters, and it is not easy to hit them.

The roaring Daming dive bombers rushed to the Allied ships on the sea with the flying shells in the sky. Whether it's warships, fishing boats, or transport ships, they're all targets.

In order to save their troops, countries mobilized all the forces they could, from fishing boats to official ships, from warships to yachts. All the ships that could move went to the port of Tunis, transporting waves of Allied soldiers to Sicily.

The fighters of the Daming Naval Airlines carried out a frantic attack on these ships. Unlike the less professional army aviation, the HNA bomber pilots have a lot of experience in attacking ships, and they are all professionally trained. Many good pilots are able to accurately drop bombs at hundreds of meters in the air to cause damage near the target.

Large ships did not dare to approach the port of Tunisia during the day, and they could not approach the destroyed port. The Allies could only use small ships to carry officers and men away to board ships in the deep sea.

Where can those small ships with a displacement of only a few hundred tons, or even only a few tens of tons, withstand a bombshell attack? Even a near-miss is enough to inflict tragic damage on these small boats. After all, these fishing boats, cruise ships, and transports are not equipped with solid military armor.

Many Allied officers and men, even if they were lucky enough to get on board, would sink to the bottom of the sea with the ship in the dense rain of bullets, and the Allied casualties were very heavy.

For the Allied forces that escaped, the best time to escape was at night. As long as there is no Ming Navy Mediterranean Fleet to come and make trouble, then they will board the ship without aerial bombardment and leave this damn place.

Although there were Ming submarines moving under the sea at night, most of the ships on which the Allies sat were small boats, and the draft was very shallow. The submarine units of the Ming army rarely set their eyes on them. And if you leave during the day, it will really be a test of life and death.

However, with the continuous advancement and squeeze of the ground forces of the Ming Dynasty, the allied officers and soldiers could not care about day and night. Many officers and men crowded on the beach and even jumped directly into the sea, flopping and climbing onto small boats, and the scene was chaotic. And all this was carried out under the nose of the Daming aviation forces, and the blows and losses can be imagined.

Although the Allied aviation units resisted desperately, they had already suffered heavy losses in the previous battles, and the remaining forces were simply unable to resist the Daming aviation units that could receive a steady stream of reinforcements.

Even the transfer of troops from the mainland is not something that can be done in a short period of time. Not to mention the fact that the main forces of the air forces of France and Germany were on the Russian battlefield. And the fighter forces of the Americans could not fly directly over the Atlantic. The time taken to ship by sea is too long. As a result, the Allies were unable to resist the strong attack of the Ming Dynasty for a short time.

"We'll definitely be back." At an airstrip in the port of Tunis, General de Gaulle, commander of the Allied North African Theater of Operations, turned around and looked back at the battlefield filled with gunfire and smoke in the distance before boarding the transport plane and withdrawing from here, and said in an extremely firm tone.

De Gaulle's words greatly boosted the morale of the French officers and soldiers around him, but he felt in his own heart that he might never have the chance to return to this land. The land here has been surnamed Ming for many years, even if the French took it away for a short time, but it eventually returned to the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

De Gaulle left late, and Patton left the port of Tunis for Rome early on a warship sent for him by the American army. After the withdrawal of U.S. troops from North Africa, they will be deployed on the Italian peninsula to assist in the defense. The Allies theorized that after retaking North Africa, the Ming army was likely to march into Europe along the lines of Morocco, Gibraltar, and Sicily, and the Italian peninsula.

Spain had the French there to assist in the defense. Here in Italy, the Americans and Germans are in charge. As for the Spanish and Italian armies, they had already proven their combat effectiveness in the war, and no one would put their hopes on them.

In fact, the Ming Dynasty had a third route option, that is, through the route of Egypt's Crete, to attack Greece in the north, and to enter the European continent from the hinterland of southern Europe. However, this route has to go through the mountainous area of southern Europe, which is very unfavorable for the operation of the mechanized troops of the Ming Dynasty, and there are also elite German troops stationed here. The actual offensive is not very likely.

The Spanish side is also blocked by the Pyrenees, and here in the Italian peninsula there is the Alps. It is not easy for Daming to return to Europe.

In mid-July 1941, the last Allied resistance in the port of Tunis was crushed. The powerful Daming North African Corps successfully recaptured this port city that originally belonged to the Daming, thus ending the Tunisian campaign perfectly.

Throughout the Tunisian campaign, the Allies lost more than half a million men in the final Battle of Tunisia, most of whom were taken prisoner by the Ming Dynasty.

The losses of the Allies in various equipment were even more heavy. In total, more than 2,200 warplanes of various types were lost, and nearly 3,000 tanks and armored vehicles of various types were lost. Artillery pieces of various caliber models amounted to almost two thousand pieces. As for other light and heavy machine guns, trucks, jeeps, and so on, all kinds of weapons and equipment, as well as military supplies, are countless.

Elite Allied units throughout North Africa were swept away in Tunisia. The remaining garrisons in Algeria and Morocco simply could not stop the onslaught of the torrent of Daming steel. The whole of North Africa has returned to the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

"Very well done." Before leaving North Africa and returning to the imperial capital, Zhang Cheng presented medals to a group of officers and soldiers who had made outstanding achievements at the airport: "This is a glorious moment for you. (To be continued.) )
