Chapter 112, Advance into North Africa
The huge team took turns sailing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, after all, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait was only so wide that it was inconvenient to drive in, and it was only in the Gulf of Aden, and there was no danger inside, and there was a British and American fleet in it, if there was any danger, they would not just park some ships there generously.

For the arrival of reinforcements, Britain seemed a little indifferent, even disdainful, but the United States expressed a lot of interest, the purchased 59 tanks are still galloping in North Africa, although more than half of them have been scrapped, but there are still half, which played a big role in withstanding the German attack.
However, the U.S. military is disdainful of these yellow-skinned Chinese, who are all like this and look down on the yellow race.
The cruise ships docked one by one, putting down the soldiers and equipment on board, and the originally quiet small port instantly became lively.
Some idle and boring GIs also stuck their heads out to take a look. When I saw the tons of goods unloaded from the ship, I was dumbfounded. This expression, when they came, the British army was also like this, and now that feng shui is turning, they also show such expressions.
There were so many things unloaded from the ship that they were overwhelmed, and they saw hundreds of tanks, hundreds of artillery pieces of all kinds, and the rest of them were piled up like a mountain, and no one knew how much ammunition there was in this "mountain", if the German planes came to drop a bomb...
Thinking of that scene, these American troops shuddered in unison, it is estimated that the entire port is about to fly, that scene is too beautiful, I dare not think about it.
"What are you doing? Looking for death? Piling up all the ammunition here, do you think your life is not long enough? The commander of the Sixth Army, who got off the ship, saw the materials piled up on the shore, and was immediately frightened.
The commander stared at the bull's eye, his face flushed with anger, he had just left the training ground, and he made such a big mistake.
was yelled at by the military commander, and the people below also knew = their mistakes, so they hurriedly separated the materials, and in this way, they didn't know how much time was wasted.
"What kind of battle are you fighting like this, you will all die a long time ago." The army commander was angry, now this matter is no longer a matter of whether the materials are piled together, but a matter of attitude, it seems that they don't seem to regard this as a war at all, and they seem to have forgotten what the scene of the Japanese invasion was, perhaps because they knew that Lu Qiang's army was very strong, and they were not afraid when they entered the army.
"Commander, extinguish the fire, this is the first time they have been on the battlefield, and it is inevitable that something will go wrong." A division commander was beside him and persuaded him with kind words.
"For the first time? Can you make a mistake the first time? They don't know how much of a consequence their actions can be? It seems that they are going to be dragged to the battlefield to see how easy it is. The commander said.
"How do you get them into battle?"
"Contact the United States and Britain, find a vacancy, arrange them up, and see the cruelty of the battlefield."
"That's fine, but will they agree?"
"Yes, absolutely, I think they would like us to go to war and fight the Germans."
In the Anglo-American joint conference room, the famous Montgomery and General Patton talked.
Originally, Barton was supposed to set up a desert training center in the Valley of the Kings in California to train his armored troops, but because of the needs of the war, he went to the battlefield in advance.
Patton is more accommodating and friendly, and Montgomery is less than friendly, while Rommel, like him, is imperious and arrogant, like a difficult horse to control when he obeys orders, and when he is given full command, he is a good commander with a clear mind and the most insightful opinion.
In the face of this sudden support of the army, Montgomery and Patton were a little worried, they didn't know where to put this army, and they still had tens of thousands of people, which was really a big deal, and all of their American troops added up to about 20,000 people. However, the main battlefields of the US military are in Asia and Japan.
"Just throw it wherever you want, yellow people, they are all sick men." Montgomery said with a haughty eagle face and a very disdainful and slightly hostile tone.
Such disdain and hostility are not unexpected. Patton said secretly, Britain is very unhappy with this Chinese army, and they robbed Hong Kong Island first, which is not counted, and what is even more excessive is that they actually robbed half of Australia, which is no different from bandits. But is this a retribution for the British? At the beginning, Britain plundered and colonized one of the countries most ruthlessly against China, but it seems that they and the United States also plundered a lot, of course, this is not his business.
The fleet of ships parked in the harbor had been busy all day before emptying the ship, and the entire Red Sea, as far as the eye could see, was full of ships.
"Let's go, I'll go with those foreign devils." The commander straightened his clothes.
"Well, Commander, they're on the front line, and it's still some way from here." The adjutant said.
"Well, send them a telegram, and ask, where shall we go?" The commander said.
"Just ask them?" The adjutant asked in a low voice, asking so directly, aren't you afraid of being cheated by the other party?
The commander seemed to understand his thoughts, "It's okay, I think they are probably thinking about putting us in a no-man's corner." ”
"Why?" The adjutant was a little puzzled, shouldn't they all be sent up as cannon fodder?
"Why? Isn't it clear to you about such a simple question? The commander seemed to know what the adjutant was thinking, "Do they use us as cannon fodder and we listen to them?" ”
"No!"
"Since you all know it, how could they not think that we have the strength not to listen to them, and they do not have the strength to order us, so I think the other party is estimated to be out of sight and put us in a place where they can't see it. Or just look at us and put us in a difficult place. ”
The adjutant nodded thoughtfully and did not continue to ask.
Just as the commander of the Sixth Army had thought, Montgomery and Patton were deliberating about where to let them go.
Needless to say, Montgomery wanted to throw the Sixth Army far away, out of sight, and because of his arrogant character, he looked down on the Chinese, but he didn't think that the Sixth Army could help them.
However, Patton held the opposite idea, believing that the current stalemate with the Germans was one chance to break the stalemate, and the Sixth Army was very suitable.
Montgomery was arrogant, he would not change what he believed in, and he didn't want these Chinese to appear in the newspapers, so that the world would think that their British army relied on these yellow skins/pigs to win. (To be continued.) )
