"Commander, I have carefully analyzed the fortress of Gibraltar, and the result is that no matter what weapons we use, no matter which direction we attack, the result will not be able to capture the fortress of Gibraltar."

Rommel looked at Hans in surprise and asked with a smile:

"My Chief of Staff, you haven't said anything about the way to attack Gibraltar?"

Hans smiled embarrassedly and said:

"Am I not full of confidence in you, Commander? I believe that as long as the commander is determined to do something, no matter how difficult it is, it will not be difficult for the commander, brothers, do you think this is the reason? ”

After the applause of "pop ......", several of the participating officers began to speak:

"Of course...... Our commander is the Eagle of the Empire."

“…… Our commander is a German god of war, and the fortress of Gibraltar is just a piece of cake for him. ”

"Even if the fortress of Gibraltar is the strongest fortress in the world, it is vulnerable in front of our division commander."

"Stop ......" Rommel raised his hand to stop his brothers from boasting, but Rommel did not reprimand his brothers, but laughed and scolded:

"You bastards, when did you become sycophants, now is not the time for you to slip around and shoot horses, now is the tactical arrangement I asked you, go ahead!"

Rommel's easy-going approach made his men feel more cordial, so they didn't have so many scruples about speaking:

"Doesn't our 7th Panzer Division have dozens of 150-mm heavy guns? It would be enough to directly bombard the fortress of Gibraltar with 150 heavy guns. ”

"You are very awesome, the top of the Gibraltar fortress is more than 100 meters thick, and the sides are more than 30 meters thick, you can collapse the Gibraltar fortress, it's a joke."

"Also, didn't you see the cannon on the fortress of Gibraltar? 280 mm caliber! Your cannon was bombed to slag just before it reached the fortress of Gibraltar. ”

"We can get the Air Force to blow up those fortress guns with heavy aerial bombs!"

"You think very beautifully about blowing up those giant cannons, the British have long thought of it, their protective shed above the fortress cannon is reinforced steel concrete with steel plates, ten meters thick, and even our aerial bombs weighing 1,000 kilograms are helpless."

"What then?"

All eyes turned to Rommel, convinced that the invincible General Rommel would have the perfect way to break through the tortoise shell of the Gibraltar fortress.

"Commander, don't sell the pass, just give the order directly!"

In this case, Rommel no longer forced his brother to meditate, Rommel picked up a command pole, pointed to the Gibraltar fortress on the sand table and began to say:

"The fortress of Gibraltar looks impregnable, but in fact it has shortcomings, that is, anti-aircraft fire, and now the few anti-aircraft firepower has also been cleared by us.

You can see a few small holes hidden under the huge rocks on the top of this mountain, and these small holes are all in the anticline of the land, and our cannons can't hit these anticline planes at all.

Guess what these little holes are? ”

On the sand table, these small holes are only the size of peas, and they are hidden under the huge rocks of the anticline, and they cannot be found at all without looking closely.

Several of the officers who attended the meeting began to speculate:

"Chimney."

"Rainwater Harvesting Holes."

"Breather"

Or Bismarck was smart, he guessed right, Rommel smiled and nodded to Bismarck:

"Yes, these small holes are ventilation holes, about two meters in diameter, and there are more than 10,000 British troops in the fortress of Gibraltar, how can such a large number of people not have ventilation openings? Otherwise, wouldn't these more than 10,000 people be suffocated to death?

You are looking at the side of the Gibraltar fortress in the mountainside, there is also such a small hole, this is also a vent, the vent on the mountainside is of little significance to us, now is how I will use the vent on the top of the hill to break through this impregnable Gibraltar fortress. ”

Everyone stared intently at the sand table, pricking up their ears to listen to Rommel's analysis of the tactical arrangement, Rommel took a sip of tea comfortably, and continued to explain:

"Isn't the Gibraltar Fortress impregnable? Then let's burn the turtle bastard.

This afternoon, all the 12 FA223 transport planes of the direct shipping regiment were dispatched, and the infantry was used to kill the fortress artillery on the top of the hill first, so that they would not harass us and pour gasoline.

Then use the explosives pack to enlarge the hole, and finally pour gasoline into it, anyway, our tanks don't need this gasoline, this battle of Gibraltar, no tanks need to participate in the battle. ”

As soon as Rommel finished speaking, several people in the meeting immediately applauded enthusiastically, this method of setting fire is simply amazing, the British can't think of it at all, but there are still some questions, they feel that they need to figure it out, and some people start to ask:

"Commander, what if the British in the fortress of Gibraltar put out the fire with sand or a fire extinguisher? Won't all this gasoline we pour burn? ”

Such a question is a good and professional question, and Rommel must seriously answer such a question:

"First of all, there is no sand in Gibraltar at all, why? Because the Gibraltar fortress was carved out of the mountain, the fortress is full of stones.

Secondly, fire extinguishers have no effect on violently burning gasoline, especially when we are constantly pouring gasoline into it, at least hundreds of tons of gasoline. ”

"Commander, I don't think you're wrong about that, but how do we get so much gasoline to the top of Gibraltar."

Everyone gave a look of contempt to the man who said this, who did not even know the hidden weapons of the Seventh Panzer Army, and Hans, the chief of staff in charge of logistics, began to explain:

"FA223 transport helicopter! Helicopters are a good thing, you can do without an airport, you can also take off vertically, with a carrying capacity of four tons, we can have twelve FA223s, fly back and forth once plus the time of loading and unloading, at most half an hour!

In one afternoon, we can transport about two or three hundred tons of gasoline to the top of the mountain in Gibraltar, and if these hundreds of tons of gasoline are not enough, then we will continue to transport them overnight, and I don't believe that we can't burn those Brits. ”

"Okay, the commander is really god-like."

"I said why is the commander smiling every day, it turns out that he has already made up his mind!"

"Our Seventh Armored Division is going to be famous again this time."

"It's a must."

Rommel knocked on the command pole in his hand, "pop", several people attending the meeting suddenly fell silent, Rommel was a god-like existence in their minds, Rommel knocked on the table, which meant that they should not continue to talk nonsense in the command room, and hurry up and prepare!

"Go ahead and get ready! The action began at two o'clock in the afternoon. ”

"Yes"

Rommel's order was greeted with a one-sided answer and a military salute.

At two o'clock in the afternoon of December 14, 1940, in the garrison of the 7th Panzer Division, more than 50 kilometers from the fortress of Gibraltar, twelve ugly FA223 transport planes took off.

The helicopters were loaded with heavily armed soldiers and some explosive packs, and each transport helicopter could carry 20 heavily armed soldiers, plus 500 kilograms of explosives.
