The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

The war is over.

The war was over the moment Rommel appeared in front of Chen Mo.

In the end, Rommel chose to surrender because he knew he had no chance of winning.

In fact, when he learned from Chen Mo what he was facing, he knew that he had no chance of winning from the beginning.

War is cruel.

Perhaps at the beginning, people can use excuses such as lofty ideals or national justice to convince themselves, or they can use interests to drive the war to continue.

For those who manipulate the war, they may be able to obtain sufficient benefits from the war, but for those who participate in the war, in the end the war will always bring pain.

There is no talk of sudden remorse, nor of giving up because he saw no chance of victory. Rommel just understood that this war could not bring him and Germany what they wanted.

So he chose to surrender, and after being disarmed, he and his army were imprisoned in a prisoner of war camp.

Originally, because of Rommel's status and Chen Mo's attention to him, he should receive the treatment of an officer corresponding to his status.

In fact, Chen Mo did send an invitation to him, inviting Rommel to the palace in Cairo. After all, in terms of military affairs, Chen Mo felt that the officers of the Egyptian army should have a lot to learn from Rommel.

But Rommel gave up these preferential treatment and chose to stay with his soldiers.

"I led them to lose this war. I can't pat my butt and pretend that nothing happened and let them suffer in the prisoner of war camp, while I swaggered to become your guest." Faced with Chen Mo's question, Rommel gave this answer.

Chen Mo thought it didn't matter. Anyway, he had no habit of abusing prisoners of war, and he had no interest in using prisoners of war as experimental materials, so he went with Rommel.

However, he still asked the general to write down some of his military ideas in exchange for better treatment for his soldiers in the prison camp.

For this deal, Rommel readily chose to accept it, and said that he could ask other German generals to write a tailor-made military training manual for the Egyptian army and help the Egyptian army analyze the problems that they had in the war.

Of course Chen Mo wanted this, and everyone knew who Ai Jun was.

Although Chen Mo carried out some reforms in the army after he became king, and later obtained a group of clone officers from the biochemical world who were instilled with the modern military drills of the US military, the modern military drills of the US military are obviously not suitable for the Egyptian army. Not very applicable.

After all, what Chen Mo wants is a powerful army with a tenacious fighting will and flexible tactical thinking, not a group of veteran soldiers who can do nothing but rely on technological differences to crush the local security war.

Chen Mo does not need to draw experience from the German army in terms of daily training of soldiers. The training methods from later generations are far more scientific and efficient than the current ones.

But in the cultivation of tactical thinking, the famous generals of this era were completely different from the officers of later generations.

So Rommel agreed to compile a military drill for the Egyptian army, which was something Chen Mo felt very satisfied with.

But the handling of this German army ends here. After Rommel surrendered, the entire North Africa has been brought under Chen Mo's control.

Although this vast area is basically desert and Gobi, lacking suitable human settlements, there are still many cities along the entire North African coastline, especially three of which can be said to be stuck in the Mediterranean. on three positions.

One, of course, is Alexandria, which is now controlled by Egypt and serves as the home port of the Egyptian navy.

It is not only very close to Cairo, the capital of Egypt, but also very close to the Suez Canal.

If a fleet is deployed here, the Suez Canal can be easily blocked.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Mo took advantage of this to jam the German's neck before the war started.

As for the other two cities, they are Tunis and Ceuta.

Because one of the two cities is located in the Strait of Gibraltar, the outlet connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean, and the other is located in the Tunis Strait in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

Needless to say, Ceuta is located in the Strait of Gibraltar. It is a natural harbor, and it is just on one side of the Strait of Gibraltar, far opposite Gibraltar on the other side. It is even the Pillars of Hercules as the end of the world in Greek mythology. .

It was precisely because of the superior geographical location that the British occupied Gibraltar and built a military base to control the Mediterranean.

Before the rise of Gibraltar, Ceuta was the gateway to control the Mediterranean.

However, with the discovery of the New World, the status of the Mediterranean gradually declined. The significance of controlling the gateway to the Mediterranean was not as strong as in the past. Moreover, the Kingdom of Portugal and the Kingdom of Spain that controlled Ceuta declined one after another, which led to the decline of the status of the Port of Ceuta. and the rise of Gibraltar.

As for Tunisia, it has the same status, but it is far opposite Sicily. If people do not go through the Tunis Strait, they have to go through the Messina Strait, which is the narrowest place between Sicily and the Apennine Peninsula and is only three kilometers wide.

If it was in ancient times, the problem would naturally not be big, but for modern ships, the passage conditions of the Messina Strait are too poor. Coupled with the rapid water flow and dense reefs, even in ancient times, this place was mentioned in various myths and legends. The real form of monsters and monsters.

So for Chen Mo now, he has mastered the three most important port nodes along the Mediterranean coast, and can completely control the entire Mediterranean based on these three ports.

Although Egypt's naval power is not enough to do this now, the existence of two aircraft carrier formations can still guarantee Egypt's voice and interests in the Mediterranean region.

And the good news is that after years of accumulation of experience, as well as the various technological blessings Chen Mo obtained from other worlds and the efforts of clone engineers, the local shipyards in Egypt finally built the first Self-designed and built aircraft carrier.

A fleet carrier built to Cold War standards, with three steam catapults and a reinforced deck that can take off and land jet aircraft.

Its displacement reaches 27,000 tons. Its design is based on the Essex class used by the United States in the late World War II and early Cold War with a modified beveled deck. In terms of combat performance, it is completely ahead of this era. Other aircraft carriers.

With the completion of this aircraft carrier, the Egyptian Navy will soon have three aircraft carriers, and there will be more. This is very meaningful for Chen Mo's vision of controlling the Mediterranean.
