Rommel came in a hurry, and after only one day, he left in a hurry.

Fan Zong, who contacted him, also left that day, the Chinese army crossed the line of power that was originally divided with the Germans, launched a larger offensive against Tunisia and Algaria, and accelerated the conquest of North Africa.

At the same time, the Chinese army continued to advance towards South Africa.

The five-star red military flag of China floated over Mount Kilimanjaro, and the ancient military song of China "How can I say I have no clothes" sounded next to the Great Rift Valley in East Africa. The vanguard military song that moved forward led the Chinese chariots to run over Zambia and Mozambique and headed towards Zimbabwe.

At this time, Zambia and Zimbabwe were both British colonies and were called North and South Rhodesia. Mozambique was an East African colony belonging to Portugal, and was called Portuguese East Africa at this time.

When the Italians were struggling in East Africa, the Portuguese chose neutrality, and when the British fought back, they also chose neutrality.

Later, after the Germans were at their peak in Europe and opened up the battlefield in North Africa, Spain and Portugal were tied to the German-Italy chariots, but Britain and the United States clearly knew the habits of these two fence-bearers and did not suppress them in a transitional manner. Colonies such as Mozambique also did not move and remained in the hands of Portugal.

However, after the United States joined the war, under the traction between the United States and Britain, Spain and Portugal's attitudes with the Allies became increasingly ambiguous.

Unless it is too far apart and the interests are not involved, it will be difficult for a country to remain absolutely neutral in such a world war.

Even Switzerland has a private relationship with Germany.

Spain and Portugal are in the whirlpool of European war, and it is difficult to set up arches.

It can still be half-covered in the early stages. When the dust is settled, don’t worry about the secret activities of settle accounts after the autumn. Even the post-war cake redistribution is enough to attract every country to devote its adventurous spirit to world peace.

Especially Portugal and Spain have too many interests in Latin America. Under the pressure of the Americans, they finally distanced themselves from the Germans after the Allies landed in Europe.

At this time, the Germans didn't care about them, and they just wanted to not take the blame and just turn against them. But they were already full of hatred.

Although they would not applaud and celebrate the colonies that China attacked these countries, they would never interfere.

Compared with China, the Germans can figure out which ally is more valuable. Even if Portugal protests, the Germans can push China.

China even ignored Portugal's protests, and even did not even do superficial articles. It directly sent troops to invade Mozambique and completely occupied it.

Although Portugal and Spain have declined a little, Meng Xiang still remembers that they have committed a debt in China for hundreds of years and will never hesitate when it is time to recover.

In the past, it involved large farms and Chinese immigrants in South America, so it was left with places such as East Timor. Now it has the power to protect itself, and even wishes to have an excuse to make a fuss in South America. Naturally, the Chinese army will not be polite.

The army rushed away without even explaining, attacking and heading south.

The Allied forces did not have much troops in these places. Only when the British army in Zimbabwe were in a hurry, the helpless British turned to the Americans for help, and the army mobilized them to South Africa. At this time, the only way to conquer the south was nature.

Bad weather, all kinds of strange creatures and insects, and the most troublesome diseases, always plagued the Chinese army across the equator, but none of these could stop China from conquering the eastern and southern Africa.

Don’t look at East Africa around the equator, with a complex environment, but the diversity of biological organisms has made East Africa’s agriculture and planting industries develop, and lilac, sisal, and coffee all occupy an important position in the world. The rich African tropical forest resources are something that Meng Xiang is reluctant to give up.

Not only that, the mineral resources here have not been explored on a large scale due to environmental reasons, but Ethelbia's gold and Tanzan's copper mines have become world-famous at this time.

Before the mining and selection of low-grade copper ores was resolved, before the era of large and poor porphyry copper ores in the fifties and sixties, the copper ore on the Katanga Highlands, which had been built and mined in large scale in the early century, was one of the main sources of copper in Europe.

If this is not enough to make Britain anxious, the fall of Zimbabwe, known as the "Gem on the Crown of the British", and further South Africa, the British's golden pocket, is also facing the danger of falling, which really makes the British anxious.

The colonies of the Empire of Sun Never Setting are also divided into different levels. Some can be given up, but once some give up, it may be a fatal blow to the British.

For example, South Africa, Zimbabwe, and India, these can continuously deliver wealth to the British and support the British Empire's colonies that have not yet fallen to pieces. The British will never let go even if they die. Even the Americans want to get a piece of the pie.

If it were just the fall of South Africa and Zimbabwe, the British might not have looked for Americans and tightened their pockets and persevered until the final victory of the war.

But if South Africa is captured, the shipping on the Cape of Good Hope will easily be stuck by the Chinese. With the Suez Canal and Australia being controlled by China, the entire Indian Ocean will be under the sanctum of China.

Then India, an empire pearl that constantly provides food, cotton, tea, sugar, spices, and even cannon fodder sent to the front line, will be isolated and even lost directly. Without the support of external weapons and ammunition, it is hard to imagine how long the British troops there can last, even if they include the Japanese.

Because of the colonial nature, India's industry could not maintain self-sufficiency in weapons and ammunition, and even the Japanese's weapons and ammunition were purchased from the Americans.

Once this Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean is stuck, it will be useless if the Indians who lack sufficient ammunition fill up the cannon fodder.

Moreover, after the Cape of Good Hope was controlled by China, perhaps the Chinese would continue to follow the coastal arc of the African continent, along the Ivory Coast, and along the former European adventurers to find a way to the golden kingdom, and all the way to Europe.

After the Chinese African Fleet confronted the reinforcements of the US Pacific Fleet 5th Fleet and the 2nd Fleet near Seychelles, no one underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Fleet.

Although the Chinese African fleet only suffered heavy damage to the 5th Fleet under the command of Spruins and the timely assistance of the 2nd Fleet, the powerful strength it showed was enough to shock the world.

The British believed that it was absolutely impossible to stop them from entering the Atlantic Ocean now.

Whether it is to safeguard the dignity and interests of the Atlantic hegemon, to preserve existing colonial wealth, or to maintain the future channel for counterattacks in Australia and Southeast Asia, the British could no longer retreat.

But they are exhausted and are unable to fight against China in their current state.

Whether at sea or on land, they need American support.

In a hurry, the Americans could not have been able to provide support at once. When the first 30,000 reinforcements from the Americans arrived in Cape Town, the Chinese East African Legion had already invaded Harare, and the vanguard troops had approached the South African border.

The journey was destroyed and there were not many nails that could hinder the advance of the Chinese army. Instead, in Tunisia, the Allied forces organized powerful troops to block the advance of the Chinese North African Legion.

Although the Suez Canal has little effect, the Mediterranean strategy is still important to the Americans refuse to give in at all.

Although the Second Armored Division was defeated, and in the end, only some of its personnel were withdrawn in Alexandria, causing the remaining equipment to be seized by China and more than 5,000 people were captured, which greatly damaged the Americans' face, but the Americans also saw hope for victory.

If it weren't for the failure of air supremacy, the Americans' new tanks could have blocked the steel torrent of China.

Even if they compete for quantity, Americans are not afraid.

The Americans quickly organized the second tank blocking belt, and encountered it before the Chinese armored troops attacked Sfax.

This time, the Chinese forward did not recklessly rush forward, causing the American ambush circle to be invalid. Both sides just retreated. The Chinese North African Legion vanguard team, which had obviously not had an advantage in the number of tanks, still fought with nearly 300 Americans' nearly 300 super Pershing.

However, the new fighter jets emerged by the Americans did not have an absolute advantage in China's fighter jets, and they even fought in a comparable number.

Although there are many aces in the United States that are related to elite pilots participating in the war, with the continuous pursuit of Americans, some of the advantages of China are gradually decreasing.

With the lesson from Alexandria last time, the Chinese commanders were obviously much more cautious this time. They no longer recklessly rely on the forwards to hit the Americans' iron plate defense, but gathered more attacking forces.

The Americans are also deploying troops in large numbers, intending to use their logistical advantages in Tunisia to win the first victory over the Chinese Army.

Before, both in Australia and Japan, the United States' troops were at a disadvantage compared to China, and the Americans did not have the intention to fight to the decisive battle.

In Tunisia, although the Americans also needed to cross the ocean, as a springboard for attacking Europe, Tunisia was already the American logistics base, and many barracks that moved to Europe were set up to support Italy's operations.

A large amount of strategic supplies, even veterans drawn from some of Italy, made Americans very confident.

The army of both sides continues to gather, and the first collision between the Chinese and the US Army is about to begin.
