Meanwhile, in the Cairo German African Legion Command.

Rommel held a discussion meeting in the combat hall of the headquarters to discuss the subsequent Western Asia combat plan.

Compared with the Allies, the Axis Team's response was significantly slower, but this was not because of Rommel, but because of the replenishment of logistics supplies.

Due to Türkiye's unexpected joining, the African Legion's land transportation line was opened.

However, it took at least several months to transport from Germany to Egypt through the Balkans, then through Asia Minor and the Middle East, so the Axis Team was ready for three months.

But now, the Axis Team has finally completed its preparation.

More importantly, the Intelligence Department has basically figured out the situation of the West Asian Allied Forces.

After the German, Italian, senior Turkish generals and senior staff from the headquarters arrived, Rommel nodded at the intelligence director Merlinjin and said, "Let me talk about the situation of the West Asian Allied Forces first."

"Yes!" Meilinjin responded and said, "The Allies on the battlefield in West Asia are mainly composed of three parts, namely the 7th Army of the US Army, the 8th Army of the British Army, and the 1st and 2nd Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Force."

"Chinese Expeditionary Force?"

"Central team?"

"There is still a team of Chinese troops?"

"God, isn't that the sick man of East Asia?"

"Yes, that's a sand-like army."

Hearing this, the senior generals of the Italian army and the Turkish army covered their mouths and laughed.

Many senior generals and senior staff officers of the German army were also stunned.

Rommel's brows frowned. As a senior general, Rommel could access many confidential documents, so he had read many war reports from the Japanese army and **.

So Rommel knew that ** was an army with very strong combat power.

However, most senior generals of the German, Italian and Turkish army were not qualified to access such confidential information, so they didn't know how powerful they were.

Rommel said at the moment: "Melinjin, tell them all the information you know about the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and tell them what kind of army the Chinese Expeditionary Force is?"

"Yes." Meilinjin said, "Everyone, in your impression, the Chinese are sick men of East Asia, right?"

"But I must tell you now that it was something decades ago, and China is no longer the same as before."

"Especially the Chinese Expeditionary Force has defeated the Japanese army in Myanmar!"

"The Japanese army attacking Myanmar defeated the British army in Southeast Asia and forced more than 100,000 British troops to surrender in Singapore. However, this Japanese army was eventually defeated by the Chinese Expeditionary Force. In the end, only a few thousand people fled back to the Indochina Peninsula!"

“And, I have to emphasize.”

"At that time, the Chinese Expeditionary Force had only 200,000 troops!"

"In terms of weapons and equipment, they are far inferior to the Japanese army, but the final result is the Japanese army's defeat!"

Hearing this, the German, Italian and senior Turkish generals present took a breath.

Rommel then continued: "So, we must not despise the Chinese Expeditionary Force at all. We must not despise the Chinese Expeditionary Force, but we must attach great importance to the Chinese Expeditionary Force!"

The combat hall immediately became silent, and no one dared to joke anymore.

Rommel said to Melinjin again: "Col. Melinjin, continue to say."

"Yes." Mei Linjin nodded and said, "The number of allied troops is about one million, including 300,000 in two Chinese Expeditionary Forces, the British 8th Army's 8th Army's 7th Army's most troops, and at least 400,000 in the current number, and the number of troops is still increasing."

Hearing this, the senior generals in the hall had no expression.

Because the Axis Team has more troops, the German, Italian and Turkish coalition forces have a total of 1.5 million!

Meilinjin ignored everyone's reaction and continued: "In terms of equipment, the Allies have more than 4,000 tanks and armored vehicles, about 3,000 combat aircraft of each type, and nearly 10,000 artillery of each type!"

Hearing this, the sound of breathing finally sounded in the combat hall, and the Allied forces had a lot of equipment.

Because the heavy equipment of the Axis Alliance is actually mainly from the German army, it has more than 2,000 tanks and armored vehicles, more than 1,500 combat aircraft of various types, and 5,000 artillery of various types.

In terms of these most important equipment, their Axis Team is at a clear disadvantage.

So the atmosphere in the combat hall began to become a little solemn, at least it was no longer as relaxed and optimistic as before.

Rommel smiled slightly and said loudly: "Don't be nervous, although the number of heavy equipment of the Allied forces is twice that of our Axis coalition, it's nothing at all."

"Because heavy equipment can only work if it is put on the battlefield."

"If it cannot be put on the battlefield, it will be just piles of scrap iron."

When the Chief of Staff of the African Legion heard this, Gauss looked slightly moved and said in a deep voice: "Marson Marshal, is it said, to cut off the Allied Logistics Supply Line? Let their flying tanks and tanks break down halfway because of fuel exhaustion, and to make their cannons a decoration because of the lack of shells?"

"That's right." Rommel said, "The essence of war is actually to protect your own logistics supply line, and at the same time try every means to cut off the enemy's logistics supply line."

Operations Director Westfar frowned and said: "The problem is that the Allied logistics supply line is by sea, and the Allied navy completely controls the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean. Therefore, it is purely delusion to cut off the Allied logistics supply line unless the Japanese Navy combined fleet is willing to rush to assist the Indian Ocean."

"Don't count on the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet. They can't come to the Indian Ocean." Rommel said, "But even without the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet, it does not mean that there is no chance to cut off the Allied Logistics Supply Channel. After all, the Allied Forces cannot always hide in Kuwait, they always have to attack!"

Gaus turned his head and asked Meilinjin: "Col. Meilinjin, has the Allied offensive plan been accomplished?"

Meilinjin showed a look of shame on his face and said, "I am very sorry, Chief of Staff, our intelligence personnel have done their best and even controlled a senior British army with American colors. However, the Allied offensive plan is said to be under the command of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the commander-in-chief of the Allied West Asia Theater, Zhong Yi, so it cannot be obtained."

When Gauss was about to get angry, Rommel waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't get the Allied offensive plan, because I can probably guess the Allied plan!"
Chapter completed!
