"Sir! The enemy's three fortresses can't hold out for long, but our situation is not good, and even if we do, we won't have the strength to fight a second battle. ”

Three kilometers away from Otto and others, in a woodland gorge, Wingate and his partisans were hiding here, and they had made the corpses of the Italian soldiers.

Based on his previous record and performance in mainland China, Zhou Yu transferred him to North Africa ahead of schedule and gave him an independent force, allowing Wingate to maximize his imagination.

Zhou Yu only told him one thing, that is, to capture the bridgehead, collect first-hand information on the front line, and serve as an outpost for the counteroffensive of the Allied army.

This outstanding student who graduated from the first phase of the Longxing Military Academy Wingate, his style of acting is very strange, he was always different from ordinary people when he was in the academy before, in Zhou Yu's words, this guy who looks thin and sturdy is a little neurotic, his personality is like a light and flexible foil, he will desperately drive his subordinates to rush forward when fighting, and he himself is also a person who does not want to die, but he has an active mind and strong energy, and he is definitely not a reckless man who only knows how to do things, his impact is extremely targeted, Like a ghost on the battlefield, it will always attack from an unexpected position of the enemy and give the opponent a fatal blow.

However, Wingate did not live up to Zhou Yu's trust, and after his guerrillas arrived in North Africa, they caused a lot of trouble for Rommel's troops.

It's just that Rommel was later transferred back to Berlin and did not compete with Wingate head-on, and the two passed by.

But Wingate's talent is still highlighted, he jumps with military thinking, eclectic, often able to find details that others can't notice, and is very bold, no, he has a team of less than 500 people, but in the face of the Italian team of more than 7,000 people, he does not fall behind at all, leading the other party to travel and consume, and the Italian army that fights is completely out of temper.

"Let's head south first, the oasis we passed by yesterday, and take a break there to study the next battle plan."

Wingate removed the hat from his head, fanned it as a fan, and finally gave the order to stop the attack and take a break.

The warriors breathed a sigh of relief, and at four o'clock in the afternoon the group finally arrived at the preset location, and arranged the necessary defenses around the oasis basin, which was not very rich, before the shift began to rest.

"Sir, there's really someone here!"

However, on the slope of the basin, which Wingate and the others did not pay attention to, Otto and his twenty daredevils hid on it.

"Look at their outfit they should be Allied people, hell, why do the Allies have a team of a few hundred people here? What exactly is Mosolini's army doing? What did we save him for? No, Berlin's plan will be pressed first, and we will first find the Italian troops stationed there, tell them about the situation here, and eat this small Allied force. ”

Otto looked at the hundreds of well-trained people not far away, and only wanted to scold his mother, but he still decided to take his vote before returning to Berlin, after all, the mission to kidnap Williams Herbert was unsuccessful, and if he could make a success here, he could also make up for the impact of some mission failures.

After leaving the woods, Otto and his men quickened their march, finally arriving at the local Italian garrison before nightfall.

I saw that this Italian army had a force of about five or six thousand people, and although the equipment was average, the variety was quite complete, motorcycles, jeeps, and even armored vehicles.

He revealed his identity, found the commander of the team, and informed the other party about the hundreds of allied troops in the oasis.

The local Italian commander named Cooper, when he learned that the man standing in front of him was the same Scolzeni who had rescued Mussolini with only fifty men, he immediately straightened up and admired him.

"Mr. Skelzeny! I really didn't expect to meet you here, your heroic deeds have spread all over Europe, you are like a god of war, and many of our warriors regard you as an idol! That one...... If it's convenient for you, could you please sign my diary? ”

Otto looked at the Italian commander with some surprise, the other party learned that after he came, he did not immediately gather men and horses to finish off the hundreds of enemies, but asked him to sign the notebook, what was the situation?

"Hmm...... Mr. Cooper, did I hear me right? You want me to sign your journal? Instead of immediately taking people to destroy the Allied team of hundreds of people? Are you just letting them wander under your noses? ”

Cooper smiled a little embarrassedly, "That...... Mr. Skorzeny, you don't know when you first come here, that the commander of that team, Wingate, is very difficult to deal with, not only is they extremely capable of fighting alone, but they are also better equipped than ours.

The most important thing is that I don't know what the reason, their news is always one step ahead of us, every time we want to encircle and suppress them, they can always escape from the encirclement first, and even give us a counter-encirclement and suppression, which catches us off guard.

You see, our camp here originally had more than 7,000 people, but after entangled with them here for a month, now there are only more than 5,000 people left, so we simply stay at the base and ignore them, and they can't make much movement, so we can at least preserve our strength. ”

Skorzeni was dumbfounded, what? Originally, there were more than 7,000 people, but against four or five hundred people, they could fight like this? And now he doesn't even dare to go out of the base door, and he still calls it "preserving strength", isn't this just being scared by the other party?

Otto's face turned pale, and he said in a tough tone: "Mr. Cooper, you have to figure it out, this is your territory, the other party has less than five hundred people, even if his individual combat ability is good, even if they can fight ten at a time, your numbers will be more advantageous, and I just looked, there is no shortage of vehicles and equipment in the base, how can you not win?" ”

The commander didn't feel any shame at all, but replied in a tone that didn't care much: "Mr. Skorzeni, you are the most powerful soldier under Mr. Hitler, naturally you will not have this kind of trouble, but we are different, we are just ordinary people, many of my soldiers are old and young, my greatest wish is not to be able to kill as many enemies as I can and how many victories I can win, but to bring them back completely." ”

"Do you know what you're talking about? You are participating in a war, a war that has swept the whole world! How could the commander of a team of thousands of people say such a thing? I am disappointed that your leader, Mr. Mussolini, was rescued by my own hands, and that he promised that the Italian army would cooperate with the Führer and become a reliable force for the Axis powers! ”

"But...... Mr. Skorzeni, we really can't beat them. ”

The commander named Cooper's eyes suddenly lit up when he said this, and he leaned closer and said, "Mr. Skorzeni, we all know that you are very capable of fighting, you are a legend, there are people here with equipment, and you have the courage and brains, how about you lead us?" I believe that with your leadership, we will definitely defeat the enemy, destroy them all, and be ashamed! ”

"How do you ...... that?"

Otto Skorzeni was about to refuse, but swallowed the words that followed.

He looked at the free and loose Italian soldiers in the barracks, and then at the twenty daredevils he brought, and paused for a moment: "Okay, in that case, the first thing you have to do is to resume training, now gather your men and let them all assemble!" ”
