The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

In the German military camp, the sweltering heat was tormenting the Hans.

Although as many tents as possible were set up in the camp, and the site itself was located close to a water source, the German soldiers were still able to enjoy sufficient water sources when the weather was hot, and did not fall into a crisis of thirst.

However, the high temperature in the desert still made them very uncomfortable. The water they drank turned into sweat and evaporated from the body in a short time. As a result, many German soldiers would drink water constantly and even take off their clothes to dissipate heat. , I hope I can be cooler.

This is actually a very bad thing in the desert, because taking off your clothes will make you feel cooler for a while, but the strong sunlight and ultraviolet rays will quickly burn your skin and cause severe sunburn.

In addition to consuming a large amount of precious fresh water, drinking water continuously can also cause electrolyte imbalance in the human body, causing symptoms such as dizziness, weakness, and dizziness. In severe cases, convulsions, disturbance of consciousness, and coma may even occur.

This is commonly referred to as water intoxication.

Under such circumstances, the German non-commissioned officers were naturally stopping the soldiers' actions, but at this time the German non-commissioned officers were obviously not gentle, respectful and thrifty people. Their slightly rough style soon aroused the resentment of the soldiers.

Although this did not lead to mutiny or shooting behind the scenes, it also seriously affected the morale of the German army.

After all, they are still Germans and have difficulty adapting to the African desert climate.

Even though the German logistics department has tried its best to provide them with sufficient supplies and various summer supplies, the effect is still very little and cannot play a very good role.

Both ordinary soldiers and Rommel as the commander were the same when it came to suffering from thirst.

If there is any difference, there is probably a buzzing electric fan in Rommel's headquarters, blowing out hot air without any coolness and rolling the map on the table, allowing Rommel to feel it a little bit. A little air movement makes it less uncomfortable.

Moreover, ordinary soldiers could take off their clothes and go shirtless to cool off, but as a general, Rommel obviously could not do such a dishonorable behavior, although he also wanted to undo the opening on his collar to make himself more comfortable. .

But as a general, he had to maintain his image, so he could only pick up the military kettle on the side and pour a sip of water that was not cool into his mouth. After a little relief of his thirst, he opened his mouth to the side who was also wet with sweat. The staff officer whose collar was revealed asked: "What is the recent situation of the Egyptian army opposite?"

"The Egyptian army is still stuck in their fortress and has no intention of attacking. We organized some tentative attacks and also tried to infiltrate at night, but the results were not very good." Basically, the staff said. This is what Rommel already knows, and it is not much different from the previous report. After all, the battle situation has not changed so far.

However, the staff still mentioned some new discoveries: "Our special operations team once broke into an Egyptian fortress when trying to penetrate at night, but was quickly repulsed. According to reports from the returning soldiers, the Egyptian army seemed to be equipped with a Plant night vision equipment so you can see them at night, making them lose a lot of money when they infiltrate."

"Night vision equipment? This is not good news." Rommel frowned.

Although he has long known that the equipment of the Egyptian army is far better than that of the German army, and has made psychological and material preparations for this, but in the face of such comprehensive suppression of the opponent's equipment level, even Rommel could not Have a headache.

In the history of human warfare, there are many examples of the weak defeating the strong, and equipment has never been the key factor in determining the outcome of a war.

One army even fell behind in all aspects such as weapons and equipment, logistical supplies, and even military strength, and still achieved the most classic and brilliant infantry record of the weak defeating the strong in the history of human warfare. However, the German army's fighting will is obviously inferior to that of the weak. The most legendary army in the history of human warfare.

Therefore, even a famous general like Rommel did not feel that he could win a frontal battlefield victory. Instead, he hoped that the German army would make breakthroughs in other directions and cooperate with him to win the North African battlefield.

This is why Rommel is unwilling to launch an attack rashly even if the army is stationed here and consumes a lot of logistical supplies every day.

On the one hand, the Egyptian army is indeed capable of fighting, and it is difficult for the German army to gain an advantage on the frontal battlefield. On the other hand, the current situation on the North African battlefield is not favorable to the German army.

"Now we lack a point to break the situation. If we can break through the line of defense in front of us, we may have a chance." Rommel smashed the pencil in his hand on the map, with helplessness and depression in his tone.

Attacking sounds simple, but if we can really break through the line of defense in front of us, Rommel will not be depressed here.

Seeing this, the staff officer on the side asked tentatively: "General, can we concentrate the tank troops for an armored assault? The Egyptian defense line is indeed strong, but it may not be able to block the tracks of the tanks."

"It's difficult. Although they have not laid anti-tank minefields, those wide trenches are obviously not easy for tanks to cross. And haven't you noticed? The Egyptian army is equipped with an individual weapon similar to a rifle grenade, which is very powerful. Armored vehicles have a very strong killing effect." Rommel shook his head and was not optimistic about the armored assault.

He is not a general who would not dare to attack because of concerns about sacrifice, but the prerequisite for sacrifice is victory.

If you still attack knowing that you will lose, it will only be a waste of soldiers' lives and further consumption of the few chips you have.

Of course, Rommel had considered the armored assault. He also had a good armored force at this time. If he put it in, he would have a chance to break through the Egyptian army's defense line in front of him.

But after the breakthrough, this armored force may have been completely lost.

This will undoubtedly be a huge disadvantage for the subsequent battle.

In particular, Rommel knew clearly that the Egyptian army on the opposite side had stronger armor than Germany, and he did not want to fight the Egyptian army without losing its armor.

"It would be great if the Egyptians on the opposite side could come out of the fortress and attack proactively." The staff officer couldn't help but muttered.

Faced with this difficult-to-gnaw iron barrel formation, it is natural to hope that the enemy will be stupid and come out on their own when they cannot attack.

However, at this time, a communications soldier from outside suddenly ran in and reported to Rommel: "The forward observation post sent a report that the Egyptian troops on the opposite side are gathering!"

Rommel and his staff looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. Did the turtle really crawl out of its shell?
