North Africa.

There is a considerable difference in the uniforms between the African Army of the Alliance for Human Renewal and the newly transferred troops of the Eastern Front.

This was mainly due to the fact that the production capacity of the Reform Alliance was consumed too strictly, and the production of new clothing was not prioritized when the Eastern Front troops had uniforms that could be worn directly, so the Eastern Front troops wore the summer uniforms of the Eastern Front to North Africa.

Lin Youde was not worried at all that this would cause the troops on the Eastern Front to be killed by heat, he had been in North Africa for so long, and he knew very well what was going on in the environment of that bird place in North Africa. In fact, the terrible thing about the Sahara is not the temperature, but the direct sun, the temperature as long as the moisture is tolerable, but the direct sun is too terrible. Lin Youde just arrived in North Africa and wore short-sleeved shirts for a few days, and as long as he went out, he was sunburned as a fool, and then he honestly wore long-sleeved singles.

The summer long-sleeved singles of the Eastern Front troops are light-colored, just suitable for reflecting the sun, and now it is winter in North Africa, and the temperature in the seaside area is somewhat better than in summer.

As a result, there are now two kinds of allied troops in North Africa (because the allied forces in North Africa are too mixed, they adopt a unified uniform based on the consideration of battlefield identification, and different countries only have different insignia on military uniforms), and in terms of armored vehicles, there are three completely different liveries, because some elite troops on the Eastern Front have been equipped with the newly developed No. 4 tank and the matching No. 4 infantry battle, both of which use very trendy digital camouflage -- the reason why digital camouflage can be made in this era, It's all thanks to Lin Youde's artistic plug-in, all the digital camouflage samples are drawn by Lin Youde himself, which basically perfectly replicates the digital camouflage in his memory, and then the plug-in is very OP to complete the part that Lin Youde didn't remember.

Speaking of this digital camouflage, when Lin Youde first came out, the German army felt that "this piece of camouflage is too stupid" -- they had never seen a mosaic, so they would not say mosaic camouflage. But later, after applying it for trial, everyone swallowed back the objections, because the concealment effect was really good. The Germans didn't understand why this camouflage would work well, Guderian, as the director of the armored corps, was very opposed to this camouflage at first, but later found that the effect was good, and then found Lin Youde, and asked why this camouflage worked well with the attitude of a primary school student asking the teacher.

Lin Youde didn't know why it had an effect, and he couldn't tell Sù Guderian that this thing was directly copied from the digital camouflage of later generations, so he could only raise his chin, smile mysteriously, and replied, "Because of beauty."

All in all, the Afrika Army vehicles at the end of 44 appeared in three completely different liveries, and this confusion was ridiculed by French military correspondents, saying that the Confederates had already begun a vacation.

Guderian had planned to launch a winter offensive in early November, but he changed his mind and decided to wait for troops equipped with tank No. 4 and infantry combat, so the offensive was postponed to mid-December.

Because of Lin Youde's interference in this plane, Chariot No. 4 and Chariot No. 4 in another time and space just have the same name, but they are actually completely different things. The number of the No. 4 tank in this time and space is already the level of the first-generation main battle tank in another time and space, it is a 40-ton tank, with a high-horsepower engine, so it can run 50 or 60 kilometers per hour on the road and thirty or forty kilometers per hour off-road speed, and in North Africa, it is no problem to travel 50 kilometers all the way.

It is equipped with a better fire control system than the Tiger and the Extreme Model III, albeit a simple one. In addition, the artillery stabilized system equipped on the Tiger has accumulated a large number of actual combat numbers for the German military industry, so the artillery stabilized system equipped with the No. 4 has been redesigned, with the new stable system and early fire control of the No. 4, the No. 4 can achieve more accurate mobile shooting than the Tiger.

During the prototype test, the No. 4, piloted by the elite members, was running at a speed of 40 km/h at the Potsdam Land Equipment Test Ground, and at the same time fired an excellent score of 10 shots in seven. And when shooting at a moving target at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, he also achieved five hits out of ten. In the final mobile shooting test, in the face of moving targets moving at different speeds and in different directions, the real Yàn prototype fired while doing non-linear maneuvers at a speed of 40 kilometers, and finally destroyed all 10 targets after firing 24 rounds.

It's a terrible number, and the German units of another plane, even the elite crews of Kali Woods and Wittmann, don't have such a high percentage of hits when shooting at moving targets - most of them fire when they are stopped.

In short, the excellent performance of the No. 4 prompted Guderian to decide to wait for the arrival of the first troops to re-equip No. 4 before launching the offensive, and although Lin Youde reminded him that No. 4 had not been tested in the desert area, Guderian still decided to wait for the arrival of new equipment.

And the infantry combat with the fourth is a lot more mediocre, this is a kind of infantry combat modified with the fourth chassis, equipped with a thirty mm machine gun used for air defense and harassment of the war queen, the only thing worth mentioning is that this infantry combat is also equipped with a vehicle-mounted grenade launcher used to support infantry combat, and the ammunition fired is a grenade for infantry grenades, so the range and power are no different from the lower grenadier under the infantry rifle, but this vehicle-mounted version is a burst version of the bullet fed by the drum, it has a drum of 100 grenades, It can be fired continuously at a rate of one shot per second.

Lin Youde's equipment idea is actually the same as that of PLA in another time and space, that is, explosiveism, that is, the firepower must be fierce and can be blown up, so that the mother on the other side doesn't recognize it.

The meticulous preparations finally came to an end, and in December 1944, Guderian's winter offensive was finally launched, which Lin Youde gave a more auspicious name: the desert saber.

Guderian's battle plan is actually very similar to Operation Desert Saber in another time and space, in that he uses armored troops to drive straight in, making full use of the terrain characteristics of the North African desert to break through.

Guderian's opponent George? Patton was also on guard at this time - it would be inaccurate to say that he was on standby, because George Patton followed through on what he had said when he landed in North Africa: he was not going to hold his ground at all, he was going to fight back. Patton had a whole newly transported armored corps in his hands, plus his original armored troops, he had more than 2,000 chariots in his hands, while Guderian had only more than 1,200.

Patton decided to take advantage of this numerical advantage.

As a result, something that had not happened in another time and space happened: the German Panzer Corps commanded by Guderian and the American Panzer Corps under the command of Patton began an armored decisive battle on an open and flat battlefield.

(Originally, I came home at three o'clock this morning, and I was already tired like a dog, and I was still holding on to watch the MSI finals in the morning, and my body was too strict.) I thought that there would be no problem with the third watch after I fell asleep, but I suddenly found that tonight's Women's Federation 2 premiere ...... So forgive me for breaking my promise, there may be two more tonight, and the original promise of three more can't be done)
