Third Reich: I took over power

"Your Excellency, Marshal, we have received intelligence that the Imperial Army of the Sun Never Sets is massing towards the western part of the Pharaoh Kingdom, and they are very likely to launch an attack on our defense lines!"General Giovanni, Chief of Staff of the Kingdom of Caesar's Libyan Army, reported.

Marshal Graziani couldn't help but frowned:"Is the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets finally going to take action? Order the troops on the front line to rely on the defense line to withstand the attack of the Empire on which the sun never sets! This time, let the empire where the sun never sets know how powerful our Caesar Kingdom is"

"Yes, Your Majesty Marshal!"Admiral Giovanni nodded.

However, it is undoubtedly very difficult to say whether the army of the Kingdom of Caesar can withstand the attack of the Imperial Army where the sun never sets on the battlefield.

Most of the entire North Africa is in the desert. Let alone fighting. , even marching was a problem. This caused the battles between the two sides to be almost concentrated along the coast.

In order to strengthen defense, after Marshal Graziani took office, he specifically strengthened the construction of the defense line. Even Tobruk It was built into a fortress.

Of course, this is just a fortress in name. In fact, there is still a big gap between the various defense capabilities and the real fortress. The main army of the Kingdom of Caesar is also mainly concentrated in the map Bruges front line.

On November 20, the Imperial Royal Air Force stationed in North Africa dispatched a large number of fighter planes to bomb Tubruk.

Hundreds of Hurricane fighter jets covered dozens of long-distance bombings. The Chester medium bombers indiscriminately bombed the positions of the Caesar Kingdom Army. The CR.42 fighter jets and MC.200 fighter jets of the Caesar Kingdom Air Force also scrambled into the air to engage in a battle with the Royal Air Force.

MC.The performance of the 00 fighter is quite good, and it is enough to compete head-on with the Hurricane fighter without falling behind at all. But the performance of the CR.42 fighter is relatively poor. In front of the Hurricane fighter, it was completely at a disadvantage and was almost suppressed.

The air battle was very fierce, and the Caesar Kingdom's air force suffered heavy losses.

After being shot down dozens of fighter planes, they had to evacuate the battlefield and cede this airspace to the Royal Air Force.

The Royal Air Force fighter planes began to bombard the defense lines of the Caesar Kingdom Army unscrupulously. This caused considerable losses to the Caesar Kingdom Army. Even if they can still rely on ground anti-aircraft firepower to protect themselves. However, this unfavorable situation of being passively beaten caused a huge blow to the morale of the Caesar Kingdom Army.

Next, air battles broke out many times between the Caesar Kingdom Air Force and the Royal Air Force of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets for air supremacy.

It is a pity that although the performance of the Caesar Kingdom Air Force is good, the Royal Air Force of the Sun Never Sets Empire is well prepared.

Although the sun never sets, the Imperial Royal Air Force was ravaged by the Third Reich Air Force in its homeland and suffered extremely heavy losses. But on the North African battlefield, they had the upper hand.

At least, the Caesar Kingdom Air Force is not their opponent at all.

Even if the Caesar Kingdom's air force can be continuously supplemented by fighter planes flying from the country, it will be much more difficult to supplement the Royal Air Force of the Sun Never Sets Empire.

Because the domestic aircraft manufacturing industry was destroyed, the Sun Never Sets Empire purchased P-39 fighter jets and shipped them to the North African battlefield. This also means that the Royal Air Force has fewer and fewer Hurricane fighter jets on the North African battlefield, and is equipped with more and more P-39 fighter jets. They can even buy the latest P-40 fighter jets equipped by the Eagle Country.

On November 24, the 8th Army of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets crossed the border and launched a fierce attack on the defense lines of the Caesar Kingdom Army.

Three armored divisions led the way, with thousands of tanks of various types, breaking through the defense line of the Caesar Kingdom Army and advancing towards Tobruk.

The armored forces of the Caesar Kingdom also launched a counterattack.

Hundreds of CV-29 tanks started a fierce battle with the armored forces of the Empire.

However, the CV-29 tank is nothing more than an ultra-light tank. Facing the tanks of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, it has no advantage at all and is even completely suppressed.

So much so that after a great battle, the armored forces of the Kingdom of Caesar were almost completely lost.

This also caused an almost devastating blow to the morale of the Caesar Kingdom Army.

Two days later, the 8th Army of the Empire of the Sun Never Sets launched a siege on the Tobruk Fortress.

A large number of 4.5-inch howitzers and 18-pounders fired fiercely at the Tobruk Fortress.

In the sky, the Manchester medium bombers of the Imperial Royal Air Force, which the sun never sets, bombed Tobruk under the cover of fighter jets.

Even warships from the Royal Navy's Mediterranean Fleet on the sea came to join in the fun. Four battleships, together with a group of cruisers and destroyers, opened fire violently on the Tobruk Fortress.

This fortress is not strong to begin with, and its defense is not strong. How could it withstand the bombardment of a battleship's large-caliber naval gun?

A large number of fortifications were easily destroyed under the attack of heavy artillery. This also caused the defenders of Tobruk Fortress to suffer heavy losses. At the same time, morale also suffered a devastating blow.

On November 28, the 8th Army of the Imperial Army captured the Tobruk Fortress.

Caesar's Kingdom's Libyan Army suffered heavy losses, and more than 50,000 people were captured. Tens of thousands more died in the battle.

The remaining 200,000 troops retreated crazily westward.

Along the way, a large number of heavy weapons were abandoned. These soldiers of Caesar's Kingdom were frightened and retreated in a hurry. They no longer have the courage to fight any longer.

The 8th Regiment of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets surged forward in a frenzied pursuit.

However, the northern part of Libya was originally a piece of yellow sand, and the transportation facilities were also very poor, which greatly delayed the pursuit of the 8th Army of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets.

Otherwise, the Kingdom of Caesar's Libyan Army will suffer greater losses.

But even so, it was clear that the Kingdom of Caesar could no longer hold on on the Libyan battlefield.

Once the 8th Army of the Sun Never Sets Empire catches up, it can easily defeat them and occupy the entire Libya along the way.

What's even worse is that Free Gaul, which has fled to Algeria and Tunisia, is also ready to make a move.

General de Gaulle has arrived in Tunisia, planning to lead his army to attack Libya from Tunisia, and cooperate with the Empire of the Sun Never Sets to attack the Kingdom of Caesar's Libyan Army in Libya.

Although there are not many armies in Free Gaul now, they have recruited a large number of indigenous people from Algeria and Tunisia to form a colonial army. Moreover, a large number of weapons and equipment were obtained from the Sun Never Sets Empire and the Eagle Country to arm these armies. However, these colonies have not yet completed training and do not have much combat effectiveness. _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
