Chapter 567

I slept until the morning of the next day, and waiting for Bai Zhizhan, not only did I get freshly prepared breakfast, but also war reports from afar.

In Beixuan area, the Tiaoman army dispatched heavy bombers and carried out two rounds of bombing on the landing ground, but did not achieve commendable results and lost more than 20 bombers.

However, the Thuman army seized the opportunity.

Taking advantage of the return of the Royal Navy's "Ark of Royal" to the Derby Fortress, the Newland army mobilized hundreds of transport aircraft yesterday afternoon to transport thousands of tons of combat supplies to Malta at a time through a centralized dispatch, and picked up more than a thousand seriously injured people when they returned.

The key is that a large number of anti-tank weapons and ammunition were sent, such as 88mm armor-piercing bombs.

Before this, because of the lack of anti-armor means, the casualties of the Tyman army guarding Malta were extremely heavy when facing the Bran army tanks.

It’s not that there are no anti-tank guns, but that there is a lack of anti-tank ammunition.

The 88mm anti-aircraft gun of the Tauman Empire is itself an anti-tank weapon, and it only requires the use of armor-piercing bombs, rather than air-detonating bombs.

Previously, the Tiaman Air Force conducted airdrops at night many times.

However, the airdropped ammunition is too small to keep up with the combat consumption.

In addition to providing reinforcements to Malta, the Thuman army also did an even more important thing that afternoon. It sent an armored force that had just been withdrawn from the front line of the Xifan Canal to Tunisia, strengthened its defense and prepared to fight to the death with the enemy.

The key point is that the person who commanded the unit was Rommel, who became famous in a battle when he marched into the Xifan Canal.

According to the news sent by the Thuman Empire, because the hope of capturing the Xifan Canal in the near future has been shattered, the focus will be turned to Tunisia.

If conditions permit, a counterattack will be organized to annihilate the powerful enemy that landed.

At least from a strategic perspective, only by annihilation of landing enemies in time can the Tiaoman Empire stabilize the battle situation on the southern coast of Lu Xinhai.

If Tunisia is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.

For this reason, the Thuman authorities emphasized one thing particularly.

After the Alliance Alliance landed in Beixuan area, hundreds of attacks against the occupying forces had occurred in the Tyman-occupied area of ​​the Locke Kingdom.

Although the attacks were all local rebel groups, there is reason to believe that the support behind the scenes was the Free Rock government based on the Kingdom of Bran.

In order to enhance the influence of the counterattack operation, the RAB Bran and the Newland Army Air Force carried out high-intensity strategic bombing on four major cities, including the capital of the Tyman Empire, and the scale of Japanese bomb drops set a new record after the war began.

All of this shows that the alliance group will hit the troops and first defeat the weaker Torman Empire.

To stabilize the situation, at least you have to withstand the attack of the alliance forces in Tunisia.

As mentioned earlier, as long as Tunisia is lost, Malta will change hands, and then the Raleigh Kingdom, which has always been indifferent, will seek other ways out.

No matter how powerful the Tauman Empire is, it is impossible for it to withstand the siege of several powerful enemies alone.

This means that the empire must strengthen its efforts to attack the Kibu Fortress, and even before it captures the Kibu Fortress.

To put it directly, it means entering the Xifan Canal.

The Tiaoman Empire sent the head coach from the Beixuan area away, clearly hoping that the empire would clean up the mess and kill two birds with one stone.

On this issue, the Empire also has no choice.

It is precisely because of this that the Navy Command has made adjustments to its combat operations.

First of all, after completing the supply, the 11th Special Mixed Fleet immediately returned to the Gulf of Aden and continued to support the army's combat troops to attack the fortress.

If necessary, escort warships can also be mobilized to form a support fleet.

Secondly, the Navy Command has issued an order to the 12th Special Mixed Fleet, asking Liu Xiangzhen to come and join immediately and participate in the combat operation to attack the Kibu Fortress.

According to the telegram sent by the Navy Command, the 12th Special Mixed Fleet was still in Fan Yanyang and did not take the risk to Xi Luoyang.

However, the 12th Special Mixed Fleet has remained radio silence to this day, so the Navy Command only speculated and was not clear about its specific situation.

According to the news sent by the Navy Command, a few days ago, Liu Xiangzhen made a bold inference, and determined that Sp had taken the fleet away from Fanyan Ocean and might return to Newland's homeland via Xi Luoyang, so the 12th Special Mixed Fleet had sailed towards the Far Cape for several days.

The relevant news was sent to the 21st Special Mixed Fleet by a seaplane, and then sent by the Guards to the Navy Command.

Although the Guards have always regarded Liu Xiangzhen as their opponents, because they had worked under Liu Xiangzhen and made great contributions back then, the Guards have always respected Liu Xiangzhen very much.

Unfortunately, Liu Xiangzhen made this judgment a little later.

If it were in early October, perhaps he could really catch the Newland fleet led by Spoo in the Southwest Fanyan Ocean and catch Spoo off guard.

In addition, the combat operations to bomb northwest of Austria have also been declared over.

However, the Navy Command did not send the 21st Special Mixed Fleet and the 41st Special Mixed Fleet, but asked the Guards to immediately lead two Special Mixed Fleets to transfer the island.

It is not to strengthen the defense of the transit island, but to launch a new round of attacks.

Obviously, this is a strategic consideration.

When the Hovay Islands were threatened or even attacked, no matter how eager the leaders of the Newland Federation were, they would immediately send a fleet back to the rescue.

The key is that the fleet cannot return to the Viagra overnight.

In other words, on the Hovayi Islands, not only does there be no fleet now, but there will be no fleet available for the next month or even a month and a half.

Using this time, you may not be able to win another game, such as Laisan Island or Gardner Island.

Just climbing onto any of these islands means that in a few months, the Imperial Navy will be able to directly attack large islands in the eastern part of the archipelago.

However, the most important deployment has little to do with the Navy.

Xue Yuanzheng personally issued an order to speed up the advancement of the army in the direction of Poshawan, and according to the backup plan, he sent an armored force to launch an assault westward.

That's right, it's just going to attack the Xifan Canal.

Of course, it is also necessary to simultaneously strengthen the attack on Bo Yi.

The relevant orders have been sent to the front line by the Army Command, but there has been no personnel adjustments for the time being, such as not sending Lian Xusheng over.

The key is that the Army did not give up on the idea of ​​attacking in the northwest direction.

In addition, in view of the current situation, even if the attack is not launched, it must maintain a high-pressure situation against the Luosha Federation, so that the Luosha Federation dare not use troops westward.

The Navy has also made adjustments to allow ships from Lion Spring City and Colombo to dispatch materials to the army fighting in the direction of Posar Bay.

However, there is no need to send a fleet to you for the time being.

According to the telegram sent by the Navy Command, the navy's top priority was to lay down the Kibu Fortress, and while the army attacked from the ground, it sent a fleet into the narrow sea and marched into the Xifan Canal by sea, forcing the Royal Bran Navy to send additional combat troops to the Xifan Canal.

Strategically, as long as you can quickly win the Xifan Canal, even if Tunisia is lost, the Allied Group will be the winner of this round of battle.

The key is that for the Kingdom of Bran, losing the Xifan Canal is equivalent to defeat.
