The British, French and American allies have almost bulldozed the Sudan, and the German and Italian armies in Egypt are also invincible in the north and south, and the main force on this battlefield is the German and Italian army, and the British and French allied forces have run to the Sinai Peninsula. The John Bull and the Gallic Rooster have not given Germany, Italy and the United States a share of the Suez Canal until now. But these are minor issues, and the power of the Arab League has never been North African.

In the middle of the 20th century, warfare was no longer testing manpower, but more importantly, industrial capacity. Europeans can defeat the Arab League again and again in North Africa, but if they want to completely break the resistance of the Arabs, even if there is no China as the hegemon in this world, the Europeans will have to pay a heavy price to push West Asia across.

The main participating countries of the Arab League, the main industrial producing areas of the Arab League, and the main forces of the Arab League are all in West Asia.

For example, the Ottomans, Macedonia, Iraq, and Persia have a well-equipped national defense armament on their books, and they are not even weaker than those of the Western European powers, while a series of oil tyrants on the peninsula have completely copied China's aircraft, tanks, and artillery. It's just that these countries have small populations [Persia is the population attitude], the social affluence has increased greatly, and the people are generally reluctant to fight. Enthusiasm for war is extremely low!

Moreover, the Europeans have another formidable enemy - East and West Russia.

The Baltic Union and the Poor Party Alliance, these are two very strong forces. The governments of Moscow and St. Petersburg, with China's backing, need not worry about the need for engine fuel - Russia itself has no rich oil-producing areas after losing all of Siberia, the Caspian Sea, the western foothills of the Ural Mountains and the Caucasus, but they rely on the Chinese behind them. High-quality gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel, etc., as long as Lao Maozi is willing to risk his life to do it with the Germans. All the fuel they need will be delivered in a steady stream.

Hitler was concerned about the situation in Germany today. If one did not know the real situation, it might be heartening to see another series of tactical and strategic victories for the German and Italian armies in North Africa. But Hitler was the one who knew the inside story!

North Africa is not a strategic location. The war in Egypt was no more important than the Sinai Peninsula. And the war in North Africa and West Asia is even less important than in Europe. Hitler, who was at the top of the German Reich government, knew the truth and how much the war on the Northern Front was already at a disadvantage to the German Reich. Not long ago, the German, British and French armies suffered a heavy blow at the Battle of Minsk, losing 300,000 troops -- not a crushing defeat, but a war of attrition that failed to achieve its strategic objectives.

The two sides fought the largest tank battle to date near Minsk. The armoured armoured units of the German, British and French armies suffered heavy losses, destroying thousands of tanks and armoured by the Red and White Russians, and the combined number of tanks they lost exceeded 1,500. And that's not counting the losses of armored corps in the entire Minsk battle.

As for the African battlefield, the Allied forces have now conquered Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, and are still marching all the way, sweeping through the north and south of Sudan, but this is of a good use. The North African War was born out of the need to create an offensive and threat against West Asia. If it weren't for the great threat of aircraft, the Allied naval forces would have been able to drop their forces directly into Greater Lebanon. If the supply lines are maintained and the Sinai Peninsula is controlled, the war will instantly burn to the core of the economic interests of the Arab League. Isn't this the Navy not useful, and the aircraft dominate the world. Looking down on the ocean. The Allies could only push North Africa little by little.

The Yankees were very smart, knowing that their families were small and small, and that a large number of army units were not sent to the European continent. Only a group of pilots was sent, and the main military force was used in the North African theater.

The main force of the Arab League attacking Egypt and Sudan cleared and suppressed the localities. It was supposed to be the 21st century when it was the turn of American GIs. Now it's up to them to do it sixty years earlier.

This North African war came together, Algeria, Libya and even Morocco local greens. Everything has changed, and the sense of resistance has skyrocketed. That is, there are too few Green Church people who remain in Morocco. Otherwise, Lao Meiguang has a job to do in China.

The North African Green Cult guerrillas, with the endorsement of the Arab League and even China, have come up with all kinds of methods, attacking police stations, storming military posts on the roads, and waves of suicide attacks. The vast sea of the people's war is by no means incomprehensible.

Because of the premature development of oil in the Middle East, the oil boom here directly affected the oil development heat of North Africa, but a series of air raids and bombings by the Arab League in the early days of the war, as well as a series of attacks on oil wells after the rise of guerrillas, the oil production in North Africa is really not a little more than that of North Africa in the same period of time and space.

What shook the confidence of the German top brass and senior generals of the army the most was the war on the northern front, and the fact that China had not yet officially intervened, and that the European forces could not suppress the two Russia and the Arab League, which was too disappointing and shocking.

-- Twenty years of silent hard work have not narrowed the gap in strength between them and the Chinese bloc, and the reality is that the gap between the two sides has widened.

The series of defeats has shaken the confidence and morale of some of the German military and political leaders. Middle- and lower-ranking officers and officials may not know the truth, but senior military and political leaders are very clear that with China's [inevitable] entry into the war, especially the swept by the combined armed forces with the Chinese National Defense Force as the main body, the defeat of the whole of Europe is no longer the whisper of some defeatists. This is like the First World War in the original plane, the failure of the Schlieffen plan means the final defeat of Germany, everything only needs a transition of time. Maybe a year or two, maybe three or four years!

This is the case with the European Allies at the moment.

Some sensible high-ranking generals persuaded the German Government to hold peace talks with China as soon as possible, and even to abandon the Czech Republic and Austria if necessary, as long as they could keep Germany on its own.

Hitler himself did not want to see this happen, so he was ready to take advantage of his visit to Egypt to have a good conversation with the German commander in charge of the North African theater, ****** von Brauchitsch.

Von Brauchitsch and Hitler have been friends for more than 20 years, and the two met on the battlefield in the last war, when ****** von Brauchitsch was just a captain. By the end of the war****** von Brauchitsch had risen to the rank of lieutenant colonel.

The post-war 20 years were extremely important for both ****** von Brauchitsch and Hitler. In these 20 years, ****** von Brauchitsch rose from a small lieutenant colonel to the rank of general, and Hitler went from a well-known war correspondent for the Munich Zeitung to a minister of state. But the friendship between the two has not changed, and even both parties have given each other a lot of help in each other's professional and personal lives.

It was against this backdrop that Hitler and ****** von Brauchitsch needed to deepen their relationship. For this visit, he even personally selected gifts, the most valuable of which was a jade carving from China - a goshawk standing on the top of a cliff! This jade carving has a great origin, it is a treasure circulated in the Chinese imperial palace during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I don't know how many tosses and turns, and finally fell to Europe, and was favored by Hitler, a third-rate painter. A few years ago, when Hitler accompanied the Kaiser to Paris, he bought it from an antique shop on the Champs-Élysées in France. ・Von Brauchitsch himself was indeed a real soldier, but he didn't mind collecting gifts for his wife, Luf. Charlotte Louvre, the daughter of the magistrate, was married to Brauchitsch herself, one for the second and the other for the third.

At the age of 26, Brauchitsch married Elisabeth von Callestedt, the daughter of a wealthy manor owner, and had a son and a daughter. However, Brauchitsch clearly did not feel happy and happy about this marriage. According to his friend's description, Elizabeth lacked warmth. Brauchitsch and his cold and heartless wife have been separated for 5 years. During this period (1925), she met Charlotte Louvre, the daughter of the magistrate who was divorced from her husband. At that time, Brauchitsch filed for divorce, but his wife refused. Charlotte went on to marry a bank director (who later died). When Braucić returned from the Czech Republic in 1937, the lovers rekindled their old relationship. By 1938, Brauchitsch repeatedly pleaded with his wife for a divorce, and Calestedt demanded a large sum of cash, which was settled immediately, and then officially divorced Brauchitsch, who had been promoted to general at the time. Brauchitsch married Charlotte in the same year.

So, don't look at Brauchitsch is 60 years old, but his marriage to Charlotte Louvre has only just begun, less than two years.

The Mediterranean soon dropped anchor in the harbor and waited to be unloaded, and by this time, the German and Italian officers who had arrived with the ship began to pack up and disembark. Hitler also packed up, and then took the entourage of the entire mission, dragged thirty or forty people, carrying suitcases of about the same size, the difference was only a many, and slowly descended the gangway.

As a delegation sent by the German government to Central Asia, the whereabouts of Hitler and his entourage were of course under the control of the German army. A long line of cars had already parked on the dock, and as soon as Hitler and his party got off the boat, a group of German gendarmes greeted them.

The quarters had already been arranged and absolutely safe, and Hitler himself, after settling in a little, went straight to the German headquarters in Alexandria, greeted by a certain major. The major was Brauchitsch's aide-de-camp.

Just when Hitler was about to meet with his old friends, delegations from Italy, the United States, France, Great Britain, and even Austria, Spain, Portugal, etc., were all on the way across the ocean.

Not only the Allied bloc, but also the two Russian countries, the Nordic countries, Poland, Hungary, the Arab League, the Eastern countries, the American vassal states, Canada, Mexico, and many Latin American countries, all of them moved to Central Asia with varying numbers of delegations. This international conference held by the Chinese in Central Asia really brought together all countries of the world! (To be continued.) )
