Chapter 577

From December 3, the Tsuman army set out from Alahman, and by December 10, the city of Suez was captured, and the total amount was less than 8 days.

This time can be said to be very accurate.

Even if there is a half day, the Tyman army will use up all the last few barrels of fuel outside Suez City.

In fact, when the defenders in Suez surrendered, the assault troops of the Taman army had burned out all the fuel, and later they drove into the Port of Suez with the seized fuel.

On the same day, the Imperial Navy's transport fleet arrived.

When the fleet entered the Port of Suez, a small episode happened.

A small group of Bran soldiers who did not want to surrender tried to lay mines on the main channel of the port and blocked the main channel by exploding and sinking the freighter.

However, the first thing that entered the military port were several destroyers, and one of them was guarding near the main channel.

After the speedboats that the Bran soldiers drove appeared, they were hit hard by the destroyer before they could release the mines. As a result, the mines were hit by shells and exploded, blowing the speedboats and more than 10 Bran soldiers on the speedboats to pieces.

The incident also led to other surrendered Bran soldiers being interrogated in isolation and interrogated several months later to a prisoner of war camp under the supervision of the Thuman army.

That night, the Thuman army obtained supplies provided by the Imperial Navy.

In fact, this is also the first time since the outbreak of the war, the Imperial Army and the Tsuman Army have met on the battlefield.

As for the previous contacts, including the arrival of several warships of the Tyman Navy to the Empire, and the encounter between the two reconnaissance forces in the north of Suez City, it cannot be said to be a meeting, at most it is mutual contact or contact. In terms of military significance, it is a meeting in Suez City.

To this end, the Tyman army also held a banquet as the host, and the Imperial Navy soldiers who came from afar.

The Tyman army has always been attacking the Xifan Canal. The Imperial Navy is indeed an expedition, and the Tyman army occupied and controlled the city of Suez.

It was at this banquet that Bai Zhizhan met the commander of the Tsuman army, the famous desert fox.

However, Rommel is now the Marshal of the Army of Torman.

On the day of conquering Suez City, Rommel received a promotion order issued by Emperor Thuman himself, and was directly promoted from the general to the Army Marshal.

To be honest, it is several levels higher than Bai Zhizhan.

Although Bai Zhizhan has been winning battles, he has been just a lieutenant general of the Imperial Navy so far.

However, in front of Bai Zhizhan, this general of the Tiaoman Army had no airs and was very polite.

It is completely understandable that the rank of lieutenant general of the Imperial Navy is not bad at all, and the name of Bai Zhizhan has long been spread all over the world.

On the marine battlefield, there is no one who has suffered a defeat so far, and only the only one who can fight in the air.

Relatively speaking, there are too many victorious generals on the land battlefield, and many of them are still above Rommel, such as Lian Xusheng.

Even in the Torman Army, there are many capabilities and talents above Rommel, or in other words, as are the same as that of him, such as Guderian who swept the Rock Republic, Moder who withstood Luosha's army in the local defense battle, and Manstein who later commanded the counterattack.

In addition, there are also many famous generals on the Alliance Group.

In fact, there is one in Beixuan area, which was the former commander of the Royal Bran Army to the west of the Xifan Canal and withstand the Great Army of the Great Man.

In the months before this, Rommel did not take a single step in front of the defense line deployed by Montgomery!

If the Imperial fleet had not taken the risk of breaking into the narrow sea and quickly reached Suez City, disrupting the deployment of the Royal Bran Army, even if Rommel had enough supplies, he might not have been able to break through the Almanian line of defense deployed by Montgomery and guarded by 100,000 Royal Bran Army officers and soldiers.

Before this, Rommel stopped in front of that defense for several months and suffered extremely heavy losses.

From this perspective, Rommel can be considered a famous general at most, and has not reached the level of winning every battle.

As for military rank, it is just a title.

If you want to say it, Bai Zhizhan has a title that is more important than "marshal".

In any case, Bai Zhizhan was the prince consort of the empire. According to the standards of the Tyrannos Empire, he was a real member of the royal family and had the right to inherit the throne. Even if the ranking was definitely one hundred, the probability of inheriting the imperial throne was no higher than that of the asteroid hitting the earth.

However, the identity of a royal family made Bai Zhizhan a genuine and noble noble.

For a soldier who received traditional education, the "noble" identity is extraordinary.

Obviously, even if he was awarded the rank of marshal, Rommel was just a general from the civilian class before he received the title of aristocratic.

As for this dinner, there is nothing to say.

Even if the supplies are short, it is not difficult to organize a dinner.

The key point is that when the Bran army surrendered, it did not destroy the warehouses where supplies were stored and used to entertain the soldiers of the Imperial Navy. Many of them were seized trophys, some of which came from the Newland Federation, providing strategic assistance to the Newland Federation to the Kingdom of Bran.

In fact, this is what makes Bai Zhizhan most interested.

Before, Bai Zhizhan had heard that the Newland Federation's products were very abundant, too much to be used up, and the supplies that helped allies did not shrink.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.

Among the seized spoils, many are inferior as good ones.

The most typical one is that the military chocolate is mixed with corn flour. Although the taste of natural cocoa is maintained by adding spices and other seasonings, the taste is much worse, and the nutritional value, that is, the calories are definitely not as good as real chocolate, and the production cost is much lower.

There is no doubt that this reflects from one aspect that the Newland Federation's supplies are not too much to be used up.

Even if the material shortage has not reached the level, it will definitely not be enough, otherwise we will tamper with the aid provided to our allies.

This also shows that the war potential of the Newland Federation is almost at its limit.

If so, then the war is expected to end in the most favorable way for the empire.

Not to mention anything else, at least so far, the empire has not had a shortage of supplies. Even imported foods like chocolate, similar to luxury goods, were regulated shortly after the war. Not only could it not be purchased by normal means, but the prices on the black market were also ridiculously high.

But the key is that the supplies needed by the people in daily life are almost sufficient, and there is no control.

Take food for example, it is still mainly market sales and very sufficient supply, and rich production can also help several major allies.

Not to mention anything else, after the Republic of Ter joined the war, the empire sent food to the Torman Empire by land.

Overall, the empire is still an exporter of daily necessities.

It was at this time that Bai Zhizhan learned from Rommel that the Newland Federation had launched a full-scale war mobilization.

Obviously, this is the key.

Until now, the empire has only carried out local mobilization, has not forced the implementation of compulsory military service, nor has it included all industries in the scope of control.
