The huge fleet of thirty "Super Air Fortresses" and two Mustang fighter squadrons gradually disappeared into the distance. The soldiers of the 1st Army knew that the next time would be their own performance time.

Many commanders began to shout and give orders: "Comrades! Go!!!"

The three tank regiments of the 1st Army and the three mechanized infantry regiments rushed towards the German positions, with the figures of the 1st Army chariots from all directions.

Several kilometers away from here, on a small high ground, several senior executives of the 1st Army, including Comrade Wang Haiyang, commander of the 1st Army, have been paying close attention to the situation of the war.

Just now, the planes that took off from the Persian Gulf base arrived in time. Thirty "Super Air Fortress" bombers bombed the German army violently, and everyone naturally saw the bombing situation.

Now, when everyone saw the soldiers rushing up from all directions, they were all happy. Everyone knew that there was no suspense in this battle. With the help of the naval fleet, their 1st Army defeated the German army.

As for the German ground reinforcements, they have been jointly blocked by the British and American forces, and the German ground forces will not be able to come for a while.

"Chief! We have a great victory. This is our first great victory in the North African battlefield. We have also ushered in a good start."

"Yeah," Wang Haiyang nodded, waved his hand happily, and said loudly: "Report the situation to the country, and at the same time tell the Allied North Africa Supreme Command, and let Montgomery share our great victory too."

distance.

A large number of tanks, a large number of armored vehicles, a large number of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, a large number of armed off-road vehicles, and a large number of soldiers rushed to the German positions from all around.

Everyone was only two or three kilometers away from the German position. Soon, many soldiers drove the chariot to approach the German position.

Only when the distance was closer did the soldiers see clearly that the entire German position was already in a mess, with corpses and broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, huge pits, tanks and cars. Under the fierce bombing just now, they almost turned into piles of scrap iron.

Looking at the smoke everywhere, many soldiers were so shocked that they had not come back to their senses for a long time. No one expected that the losses of the German army would be so heavy.

There were only three or five thousand remaining German soldiers on the entire German position. And there were a lot of seriously injured people among these people. Under such fierce bombing, there were a large number of seriously injured people, which was very normal.

In addition, the remaining German officers and soldiers were injured to some extent. When these remaining German officers and soldiers saw the soldiers rushing towards them, the German soldiers had almost no resistance.

There were only a few gunfires on the entire German position, and soon, the sparse gunfire was gone, and the German army basically surrendered.

As the soldiers rushed to the German positions, the remaining German troops surrendered, and the entire battle was basically over. It ended perfectly. The fierce German troops, who came, were wiped out under the bombing of the planes and attacked by the soldiers.

*******

After the battle ended, on the third day, the 6th Army also began to land in this small harbor, and the main force of the 1st Army began to march north after two days of rest, that is, the day before the 6th Army arrived.

This small harbor called Sefajie is about 70 to 80 kilometers away from the Suez Canal. The 1st Army Command is set up in a town just two to three kilometers away from the harbor. After the 6th Army reaches here, the 6th Army Command will be set up in the town, and the two major army commands will command the battle uniformly.

On the harbor pier.

Wang Haiyang, commander of the 1st Army, and several senior executives of the 1st Army, personally went to the dock to welcome Chu Tianming, commander of the 6th Army, and his party.

When the two met, they held their hands tightly together. They were both old acquaintances and old subordinates of Zhang Yunfei. They used to be commanders of several major columns of the 36th Army, and now they have a very good relationship.

"Old Chu! Welcome you to North Africa. After you come, our strength will become stronger."

Chu Tianming held Wang Haiyang's big hand tightly and said happily: "Old Wang, when I was still in the Indian Ocean, I heard that you had won a beautiful victory. Congratulations."

Wang Haiyan smiled and said, "That happened three days ago. Now, the main force of my army has already begun. After you come, we can cooperate well in the future and win a few more beautiful battles."

"That's it!" Chu Tianming smiled heartily, "Brothers are united, and they have the advantage of breaking gold. Our two armies cooperate with each other, but they still can't get a mere Suez Canal?"

After Chu Tianming finished speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed loudly, full of confidence in the future battle.

After laughing, Chu Tianming continued, "Old Wang, you don't know. Now many army commanders in China are very jealous of you and I entering the North African battlefield to fight. They have asked for battle one after another, demanding to enter the North African battlefield, and even entering the European battlefield. Especially our old acquaintance Liao Yaoxiang, I heard that they have asked the old leader for a few times."

The old leader Chu Tianming mentioned was naturally Zhang Yunfei. In the past, Zhang Yunfei's old subordinates in the 36th Army all called Zhang Yunfei the old leader privately.

Upon hearing this, Wang Haiyang remembered Liao Yaoxiang's jumping up and down, and was so anxious that Wang Haiyang burst into laughter again.

Wang Haiyang thought that he could enter the North African battlefield as the vanguard, but I don’t know how many people were jealous. Thinking about this, Wang Haiyangyan felt deeply proud that he was the first to enter the North African battlefield, and that was the old leader appreciated him.

Next, Wang Haiyang and Chu Tianming exchanged a few more greetings, and then shook hands with the senior executives of the 6th Army and the 1st Army one by one, and finally everyone left the dock by car.

The 6th Army began to land in batches in this small harbor. It took a week before the 6th Army arrived here one after another and completed the landing here one after another.

During the landing of the 6th Army, the main force of the 1st Army marched dozens of kilometers northward, approaching a small city garrisoned by the German army.

This small town called Gary has only tens of thousands of entrances, but it is less than ten kilometers away from the mouth of the Suez Canal. The small town of Gary is bordered by the Red Sea and is a small town by the sea, but the small town has been controlled by the German army.

There were two or three thousand German troops in the small town. When the German troops guarding the city saw the Chinese team siege and many German troops stationed in Suez, they immediately reinforced Gary.

At present, Gary's German army has nearly 20,000, dozens of tanks, two or three hundred large and small artillery pieces. In addition, the German army knew that the Chinese team had a large number of tanks, and these defensive German troops also deployed a large number of 37mm and 50mm war defense artillery pieces. In addition, more than a dozen 88mm anti-aircraft artillery pieces were deployed.

The German war defense artillery was the main anti-tank weapon. The German war defense artillery equipped with more than 100. In addition, the 88mm anti-tank artillery also has excellent anti-tank capabilities.

After the main force of the 1st Army approached the small town of Gary, it did not rush to attack, but conducted careful reconnaissance first. Several reconnaissance planes were reconnaissance over Gary every day.

After several days of investigation, the basic situation has been cleared, and the German army has not sent anyone to reinforce. Gary's German army has been maintaining nearly 20,000 in recent days.

The entire North Africa had only about 100,000 German troops, and they were basically maintaining a strategic balance with the British and American coalition forces, and no one could do anything to anyone.

With the arrival of the Chinese team, the German army was hit hard by the Chinese team a few days ago. The German army knew that the Chinese team was going to attack Gary in large quantities, and the target might be the Suez Canal, but the German army really couldn't draw any troops.

The rest of the Italian army and the German army have been completely restrained by the Allies in North Africa and cannot reinforce the small town of Gary.

Not only was there no reinforcements, the rest of the German army even felt in danger. With the last time a large number of combat vehicles were destroyed by the Chinese team, two elite infantry divisions were surrounded and annihilated by the Chinese team, and the German army in North Africa felt that their strength had been strengthened and weakened.

Originally, after seeing the Chinese team reaching the periphery of Gary, Rommel still kept holding the troops. He wanted to draw a force to attack the 1st Army secretly, but later, Rommel found that he really couldn't draw any troops.

Rommel found that he could draw at most a unit of several thousand people to attack, but what is the function of such a unit of several thousand people? Outside the city of Gary is the main force of the 1st Army, with more than 40,000 troops. If he wanted to attack, he would need at least one unit of 10,000 or 20,000 troops.

Without troops, Rommel could only sigh and think to herself that after the arrival of the Chinese team, it might be the last straw that would crush him to death. North Africa's strategic balance was completely broken. Even as one of the three major German generals, Rommel was a little pessimistic.

The 1st Army surrounding Gary, after careful reconnaissance and calm preparations, after five days of siege of Gary, the 1st Army launched an attack.

At this time, the 6th Army had completed landing in Sefaje in batches.

On April 8th, it was just dawn.

On several artillery positions of the 1st Army, a heavy artillery had already taken off its camouflage net, and its thick muzzles were aimed at the distance. On the position, many soldiers were busy.

Today, the 1st Army officially began to attack the German troops stationed in Gary. First, it would be a violent shelling and use heavy artillery to destroy the German army's peripheral defense line.

The German army stationed in Gary was well equipped, but the situation of the German army had been clearly investigated. Even the heavy artillery group of the German army was also clearly investigated.

The German army stationed in Gary had nearly 20,000 people and equipped with seven or eighty heavy artillery pieces above 100 mm caliber, building a huge heavy artillery group position. According to the combat plan, the 1st Army will destroy the German heavy artillery group in the first time.
