Age of Conquest Reborn

"Reinforcements?" Marshal Rommel was stunned, and then said with a smile: "You have no reinforcements, including in the direction of Oklahoma City, which is closest to the battlefield. There is no sign of any reinforcements from the Americans at all. This is what I regret most.

, did not achieve the expected purpose!”

Marshal Rommel did not intend to attack his prisoners, but he really felt very regretful. He set a bait and prepared for reinforcements, but no prey took the bait. It was a waste of a trap he had set. I don’t know whether it was the Americans who were smart or his own.

The game is too obvious and there are too many flaws to be seen through?

Although he had already guessed the truth, having his guess confirmed from his opponent's mouth was still a very painful and devastating thing for Lieutenant General Hells. He shook his head repeatedly and said to himself: "

If this is the case, the Ninth Army cannot wait for reinforcements!"

However, Marshal Rommel's last words aroused the curiosity of Lieutenant General Hells. He was also a soldier and was unconsciously interested in the topic of war. He seemed to have forgotten the identity of his prisoner and asked

: "Mr. Marshal, may I ask, what is your regret? What is the goal you want to achieve?"

Marshal Rommel obviously did not intend to hide anything from his prisoners, and said with a smile: "The Ninth Army was surrounded in the Dallas area. Within a week, I did not order the troops to launch a full-line attack. The purpose was to use the Ninth Army to

Attract U.S. troops from the direction of Oklahoma City to come to the rescue!"

"Mr. Custer, you know, I have prepared more than 300,000 troops for your reinforcements. It is a pity that you Americans did not take the bait. This shows that the highest command of your US Army is still

Very insightful, but I might as well tell you bluntly that this will not have a big impact on my overall offensive plan. The final outcome of this war will inevitably end with the defeat of you Americans!"

Lieutenant General Hells was completely stunned. He didn't know what kind of mood he was feeling at this moment. He learned from the enemy commander that it seemed that the wartime high command had made a decision not to rescue the Ninth Army.

. is very correct. Otherwise, the reinforcements will fall into Rommel's trap and the losses will be even greater, which may even shake the foundation of the second line of defense on the southwest border!

In this sense, I have nothing to resent, but the more than 100,000 soldiers of the Ninth Army were ruthlessly abandoned. However, the Southwest Border Garrison Command returned the calls one by one, hiding the wartime from myself.

The decision of the Supreme Headquarters deceived itself and hundreds of thousands of soldiers into fighting desperately for reinforcements that would never arrive. In a matter of ten days, more than 60,000 US soldiers fell on the battlefield!

Why is this? In an instant, Lieutenant General Hells' will almost collapsed. Fighting for the United States is the responsibility of himself and the more than 100,000 officers and soldiers of the Ninth Army, but is it worth fighting in the midst of deception?

...

Lieutenant General Hells, who was shocked and confused, said to Marshal Rommel with a pale face: "I understand, thank you for your candor. Now, please send me back to the prisoner of war camp. I want to be with my soldiers."

!”

Lieutenant General Hells walked away in despair. Marshal Rommel shook his head. He was a little regretful. He didn't seem to deliberately attack the surrendered U.S. Lieutenant General, but it seemed that he was very shocked. "The Americans are really

Is it weird?" he thought to himself.

However, Marshal Rommel quickly forgot about this episode. The end of the Battle of Dallas meant that there were no longer any U.S. troops in the southwestern border area of ​​the United States, and it was time to implement the next offensive plan.

Marshal Rommel called and called Lieutenant General Beruch, the chief of staff of the Army Group Headquarters. After the capable chief of staff arrived, he ordered: "Beruch, record the following orders. First, in the direction of Phoenix

The 13th, 17th and 18th Group Armies, the 3rd Tank Army, and the 1st Air Force belonging to the Army Group will start heading north to attack Denver, Cheyenne and other places respectively starting at 5 a.m. tomorrow!"

"Then, continue to go north and attack important targets such as Peel and Bismarck. The purpose of the attack is to lead the troops directly to the southern border of Canada and occupy the central part of the United States. But remember one thing, do not launch an attack in Salt Lake City for the time being, let alone give it to Di

The U.S. military on the front line of the Lela Mountains poses a threat from behind, which is particularly important!"

"Second, the remaining three forces in the offensive direction will launch a full-line offensive with the targets of Oklahoma City, Barutunri, Little Rock, and Jackson from 5:00 tomorrow morning to break through the southwestern border of the US military.

The second line of defense is the purpose. In the order, it must be emphasized that the commanders of each group army must master the rhythm of the attack and focus on annihilating the effective strength of the US military during the attack, not the speed of advancement!"

"The Second Air Force of the Army Group will cooperate with this offensive operation. Beluk, the above order will be issued immediately. Each unit still has a few hours to prepare. Our headquarters will also move forward!"

Chief of Staff Belluk, after recording the order, handed it over to a major general officer for delivery. He turned to Marshal Rommel and said: "Commander, the second phase of the war against the United States is about to begin. I think we are blocked in the

The Japanese on the western side of the Dilera Mountains should be furious with anxiety. Will they ask us to attack Salt Lake City again and open a channel for them to attack?"

"At that time, how should we reply to the Japanese?" Chief of Staff Belluc added, "After all, according to the agreement signed by the two countries, we are obliged to assist the Japanese in fighting. Previously, we could use the excuse that the war in the southwest battlefield has not ended yet.

, But this time, our troops attack north from Phoenix, and there is no reason to reject the Japanese request!"

"It is indeed a difficult problem!" Marshal Rommel said with a frown, "But what I am most worried about now is that the three armies in the direction of Phoenix will attack northward, which will scare away the Americans and Canadians on the defense line of the Dilera Mountains.

From this, the Japanese will take the opportunity to move eastward and compete with us for control of central America!"

"This is unlikely!" Chief of Staff Belluc said thoughtfully: "Our three armies located in the direction of Phoenix will attack from Denver, Cheyenne to Peel and Bismarck.

The defense line is more than 700 kilometers away. At least in the first two weeks when we start our offensive, we will not pose a huge threat to the Americans and Canadians on the battlefield!"

"What about two weeks later?" Marshal Rommel repeated, "Therefore, we need speed, a rapid northward advance. After the offensive troops arrive at the southern border of Canada, they immediately attack westward and stabilize the front line east of the Deillera Mountains.

Only by doing this can we achieve our goal!"

"So, within two weeks, the offensive forces in the direction of Phoenix must complete the established battle plan. You can give an additional order to the commanders of the three group armies. If necessary, they can give up the main points on the offensive route that must be captured by the US military.

City, adopt the tactic of surrounding but not attacking, mainly to reach the southern border of Canada!"

"As for how to respond to the Japanese request, Belluc, it's up to you, the chief of staff!"

The information about the remnants of the U.S. Ninth Army surrendering to the Germans on the Dallas battlefield on the southwest border came into Tang Qiuli's hands a few hours later. He looked at the information, thought for a long time, and then asked Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe

To: "Yuhe, after Rommel has eliminated the remnants of the US military on the battlefield on the southwestern border of the United States, what do you think he will do next?"

Zhao Yuhe replied: "Division commander, based on the deployment of the German army, I think Rommel should launch a full-scale attack on the second line of defense on the southwestern border of the US military. In addition, the three German armies deployed in the direction of Phoenix in the west,

It is very likely that they will attack Salt Lake City and other places, attack the US military's Dellera Mountain defense line from behind, and assist the Japanese army in their attack!"

"It won't be that simple!" Tang Qiuli shook his head and said: "If Rommel had the intention of assisting the Japanese attack, why did his troops deployed in Phoenix delay going north and watch the Japanese get bruised and bloody?

?”

"So, even if the German troops of these three armies move north, they will not attack the US military's defense line in the Dilera Mountains. The Germans and Japanese are now in the same bed, each with their own plans!"

"Teacher, what do you mean...?" Zhao Yuhe asked puzzledly.

Tang Qiuli's eyes flashed with thought, and he said: "The central region of the United States should be the focus. Rommel did not send troops to attack Salt Lake City from behind because he did not want the Japanese army to enter the central region of the United States. Yuhe ordered the Intelligence Division,

Pay close attention to all the situations in the central United States, something big should happen in this area!"

In Duluth, the wartime capital of the United States, in the wartime operations room of the Supreme War Command, U.S. Secretary of the Army General Stimson, holding a telegram from General Sartland, commander of the Southwest Border Guard, turned red with anger and turned toward the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The chairman, General Jefferfield, roared angrily: "General Jefferfield, what I want to know is why you didn't send troops to rescue the Ninth Army, which is a force of more than 100,000 people!"

"It's okay now. In the Battle of Dallas, the entire Ninth Army was wiped out, with more than 60,000 casualties, and the rest surrendered to the Germans. This was the first large-scale surrender in the history of the US Army. It was you, Jeffery.

General Er, you delivered hundreds of thousands of American soldiers into the hands of the Germans! It was you who destroyed the Ninth Army with your own hands!"

General Jefferfield had a wry smile on his face. What could he explain? Not to rescue the Ninth Army was a decision made by the President himself. He could only execute it and tell Stimson, who was so angry that he lost his mind, the truth.

Well, then I am not a competent chief of staff.

It's not my style to throw the President out first when something goes wrong. It seems that I can only bear the blame!
