The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

The landing operations during World War II were different from any previous era.

It is no longer simply relying on ships to rush to the beach, and then dropping troops to land on the beach, but a three-dimensional operation integrating sea and air cooperation.

The air force needs to disrupt the enemy's air power, bomb the beach positions, remove obstacles and obstructions, and provide necessary fire support for the ground landing force's attack.

The navy does not only provide landing ships. Large ships such as battleships and cruisers not only need to escort the landing troops, but also need to use naval guns to pull out the stubborn fortifications on the beach positions and provide artillery support when the landing begins.

After all, for the army, the 150mm is already an extremely heavy artillery, but for the navy, it is just a small water pipe.

The main guns on battleships, which often have a caliber of two to three hundred millimeters, are firepower that is difficult for the army to possess. After all, it is an almost impossible task to move a turret of several thousand tons on land. There are only train guns or fortress guns. Only something with a caliber comparable to that of the navy can be possible.

So when the Egyptian army wanted to conduct a landing operation in Italy, what it needed was a large-scale landing operation.

In order to realize this landing operation, not only the Egyptian army, navy and air force must cooperate fully, but also the cooperation of the British.

After all, the current strength of the Egyptian Navy is not enough to defeat the Italian Navy. It still needs the cooperation of the British Mediterranean Fleet, and the British also need to provide some ships to transport the landing troops.

"This is simply an impossible mission. To launch a landing operation in such a short period of time requires too much cooperation between the various units. There is no way you can complete it!" Cunningham looked at it. Looking at the combat plan provided by Egypt, the first reaction was that it was impossible.

As a fleet commander, Cunningham knew clearly how much preparation was needed to launch a large-scale landing operation.

Not to mention the preparation work of preliminary reconnaissance and selection of landing sites, just the organization and training of the landing force, and the preparation of the escort fleet for sailing, could not be completed in less than a month or two.

Not to mention, the amount of coordination required for a large-scale invasion of a country can be overwhelming.

This is not only coordination between various forces, but also coordination between the military and government departments, and supporting work in various aspects such as military logistics support.

The previous air attack on Cunningham against the Italian Navy took at least a month to prepare from the formulation of the combat plan to its implementation, and this was only the action of a unit of the Mediterranean Fleet.

According to Cunningham's estimation, it will take at least six to nine months of preparation time to actually implement this landing operation plan for Italy and maintain subsequent offensive operations. To ensure that this operation plan can be executed, there is no guarantee. Able to successfully achieve combat objectives.

But obviously, Egypt did not intend to spend half a year preparing. The preparation period they gave Cunningham was only one month.

"One month is simply not enough time. You are going to conduct a large-scale landing operation. Even if the Mediterranean fleet can be dispatched, I don't think your Egyptian army can be ready." Cunningham patiently read through all the documents. The battle plan still gave an impossible evaluation.

Although this is a very detailed combat plan, if it can be executed smoothly, the combat objectives can indeed be achieved, but there are too many uncertainties, and one month is not enough in Cunningham's opinion.

The army's adaptive training for beaching alone cannot be completed in just one month.

Therefore, in Cunningham's view, this combat plan can only be said to be whimsical. Valley

However, the Egyptian officer who came to deliver this combat plan acted very coldly. He waited for Cunningham to finish his evaluation before saying: "General Cunningham, our Egyptian military has its own evaluation as to whether this combat plan can be executed smoothly.

Now I just want to ask you on behalf of His Majesty, if our Egyptian military launches a landing operation in one month, will the Mediterranean Fleet be ready for combat and cooperate with our military's actions as planned? "

"Impossible..." Cunningham was about to say it was impossible, but looking at the confident look of the Egyptian officer in front of him, he hesitated for a moment and said matter-of-factly with the professional ethics of a soldier: "The Mediterranean Fleet will start from now on. If you are prepared, you can complete all preparations before setting sail within a month, but this requires you to provide sufficient supplies and materials."

The Egyptian officer nodded, then took back the battle plan, and said to Cunningham: "In this case, if the Mediterranean Fleet needs any supplies, you can make a request to the relevant departments of our country, and they will cooperate."

After speaking, the officer put away the confidential combat plan, saluted Cunningham, turned and left his office.

Seeing the Egyptian officer leaving, Cunningham frowned. He did not believe that the Egyptians could be ready to implement such a combat plan within a month.

Unless they have been preparing from a long time ago!

Thinking of this, Cunningham picked up the phone on the table...

————————————————

The British Mediterranean fleet was in intense preparations for war, and the Egyptian army was also making intensive preparations.

However, it is obvious that Egypt is much more confident in this combat plan than Cunningham.

It's just that this confidence is not given to the Egyptian army, but to the Krieg Corps and the Space Marines of that company.

What was not disclosed to Cunningham in that battle plan was that the Egyptians would use Krieg regiments as the vanguard of the landing, and that the Space Marines would infiltrate the landing area before the landing was launched, removing the Italians' Defend nodes and disrupt their command.

As for the battle plans of the Mediterranean Fleet and other Egyptian armies, they are just follow-up plans after the Krieg Corps and Space Marines opened up the situation, and are responsible for consolidating the results they won.

And just as Cunningham thought, the Egyptian side did not only have one month to prepare. Before they proposed this combat plan, although they did not prepare specifically for this, supplies, weapons, ammunition and other aspects had actually been prepared. Ready.

It only needs to be called according to the combat plan to meet the needs of the combat plan.

Chen Mo had already been making these preparations several years before the war began.

The large amount of supplies he purchased from the United States was part of this plan.

As for Chen Mo's entire plan, it was not for Italy at all, but for the plan and preparation to win the entire World War II.
