Anti-Japanese War: My equipment is infinitely refreshed

"Rommel's worries are unnecessary." On the other side, General Amni, who received the telegram from Rommel, just casually glanced at the content of the telegram, and secretly felt that Rommel was simply meddling too much.

In his opinion, how much effect can a troop that has traveled all the way from a distant place play on the North African battlefield?

What’s more, it’s China’s army.

According to his previous memories, the Chinese army seemed to him to be cowardly and of no use at all.

In his eyes, those Chinese soldiers were not even as good as some of the local natives.

At least for the always arrogant General Amni, that's what he thought.

He felt that the so-called outstanding commander of the Chinese army had only defeated some Japanese troops on the battlefield in their own country.

As for the Japanese army, General Amni believed that he had a considerable understanding.

In his opinion, the Japanese army was not actually that strong, and even the German second-line troops could easily defeat the enemy.

It is no wonder that General Amni had these thoughts. In terms of the army, the German army has never been afraid of anyone relying on its own advantages such as sophisticated equipment, strict training and excellent tactical qualities.

Based on such deep pride, it is only natural that General Amni would have such thoughts of despising his opponents.

"Call Marshal Rommel back and tell him I'll pay attention to this." Although General Amni was somewhat indifferent to Rommel's concerns, in order to prevent Rommel from continuing to worry about this matter, he pretended to be calm and said to the communications staff.

"Yes." The communications staff officer responded immediately, and then hurried to prepare for the return call. According to General Amni's instructions, he was drafting the content of the return call that seemed polite but was actually a bit perfunctory.

After the telegram was sent, a lieutenant colonel could not help but ask. There was a trace of worry in his eyes. He knew the severity of the current situation and did not want to see any mistakes due to carelessness.

"Commander, the enemy is coming in full force, we must not be careless." The lieutenant colonel said earnestly.

He knew in his heart that this was no joke, as the other side had an army of 300,000 strong, and they had the full support of Britain and the United States behind them.

With such a strong backing, its combat effectiveness will definitely not be weak.

Not to mention, their air force is no weaker than that of the German army.

This means that the enemy also has considerable strength in air combat and can compete with the German army.

In the opinion of the German lieutenant colonel, such powerful overall strength must be treated with caution and must not be underestimated in the slightest.

Just looking at General Amni's performance, it seems that he doesn't really take these situations to heart at all.

He still maintained that seemingly calm appearance, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

"I know, so I plan to strengthen the existing defense line." Amni was not the kind of person who would completely ignore advice. After the lieutenant colonel said this, he calmed down a little and thought about it carefully.

I think Rommel’s suggestion is actually very pertinent and does make sense.

However, the pride deep in his heart that came from the powerful strength of the German army had not completely dissipated. So although he said that he knew he had to take it seriously and planned to take some measures, in fact, he really hadn't taken the matter to heart. He was just making some superficial responses and did not really take the possible crisis seriously from the bottom of his heart.

"Should we pay attention to the Italian army?" The lieutenant colonel nodded solemnly at first, obviously agreeing with General Amni's approach of strengthening the existing defense line, and then put forward his own suggestions with a little concern.

He knew very well that in this complex battlefield, any link could affect the final outcome of the battle, and the situation of the Italian army could not be ignored.

"Italian army? What happened to them?" When mentioning the Italian army, General Amni asked with a puzzled look on his face.

He had just arrived here and didn't know much about the specific situation of the Italian army here. He only knew that they were allies, and knew very little about other aspects.

"Their discipline is really too lax." The German lieutenant colonel said with a frown. He felt that he should still give the Italian army some face. After all, they were allies, so he only mentioned it briefly, mainly to make General Amni pay attention to the situation of the Italian army.

"Drinking, gambling, staying out all night, etc." The German lieutenant colonel helplessly listed several common violations of discipline in the Italian army.

He had seen such situations quite often in his daily observations and had always been worried about them, thinking that if this continued it would definitely have an adverse impact on the overall combat.

General Amni's expression suddenly turned ugly after hearing this. He originally thought that the Italian army, as an ally, might be slightly inferior in combat effectiveness, but its military discipline should be acceptable.

But he did not expect that the Italian army's military discipline would deteriorate to such an extent. This was beyond his expectations, and he could not help but worry about the subsequent cooperative operations with the Italian army.

After all, how much effect can a unit with such lax military discipline play on the battlefield? Will their bad behavior hinder the entire combat plan? These questions suddenly came to General Amni's mind, making him feel particularly heavy.

"I understand." General Amni took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down to show that he was clearly aware of the serious problems in the Italian army's discipline.

However, he had not yet come up with a comprehensive plan on how to punish these Italian troops.

The main reason lies in the current oil exploration issues in Libya.

Now the German and Italian armies are jointly exploiting the oil here. In this process, the two sides have maintained a good relationship because of their common interests. If they rashly take severe punishment measures against the Italian army because of some Italian soldiers' violation of military discipline, which leads to the breakdown of the relationship between the two sides, it would be too unprofitable.

After all, oil resources are vital to both sides. If there are problems in cooperation in this area, it will cause a series of troubles in the future, which will have a significant impact on both military strategic layout and resource supply.

Therefore, General Amni thought about it and decided to hold back for the time being and look for a more suitable opportunity to properly resolve the problem of the Italian army's poor military discipline.

He thought that it would not be too late to deal with this matter after the situation stabilized a little, or when an opportunity was found to make the Italian army realize its mistakes without causing a rift in the relationship between the two sides.

But who would have known that it was precisely because of his carelessness at that moment that he failed to pay timely attention to the Italian army's problems and take effective measures that the subsequent situation became very passive.

The lax Italian troops were like time bombs hidden in the dark. Their improper behavior could cause unexpected situations at any time, which would seriously disrupt and hinder the German army's layout and combat operations on the entire battlefield, causing the originally favorable situation to suddenly tilt in a direction that was unfavorable to the German army. ………

"Is the town where the Italian army is stationed in front of us? It looks very quiet? Is there any trap?" Bula slowly put down the telescope, frowned slightly, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

There was a hint of vigilance in his eyes. After all, any abnormal situation on the battlefield might hide a mystery.

At this moment, he was acting according to the plan proposed by Cun Yunsheng.

Originally, they planned to repair the base first, stabilize the rear, and then slowly plan the attack. But Bu La, who had been impatient for a long time, felt itchy at the thought of waiting all the time. So, he immediately took a regiment of natives and decided to go to the town where the Italian army was stationed to test the waters and explore the situation.

As a result, after carefully arriving at the destination, they found that the Italian position was unusually quiet. Looking around, there was no single figure to be seen. This made Bu La feel puzzled and puzzled.

Is it possible that this town is unguarded?

Bu La pondered this secretly in his mind, but felt it was unlikely.

Or did the Italian army not even know they were coming?
This doesn't seem to make sense. After all, it's impossible for the other party to be unaware of such a big commotion on our side.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible." Bu La couldn't help but mutter in his heart. If the Italian army was really so defenseless, it would be very strange.

If this is not the case, how can we explain the unusually quiet scene in front of us? Neglect of duty? This thought suddenly popped up in Bu La's mind, but he immediately denied it.

"No way? This is the army of the great powers." Bu La couldn't help but mutter to himself.

In his impression, the armies of the great powers are all disciplined and well-trained. How could there be a situation like this where the position before him was unguarded and dead silent?
This is really too unreasonable, but the more it is like this, the more uneasy Bu La feels. He always feels that under this calm appearance, there may be some huge danger hidden.

"Sir, how about I take a battalion and go over there to have a look?" A major came forward, his eyes showing an eagerness to try, and suggested to Bu La. He felt that the situation before him was too strange, and he had to send someone to find out what was going on.

Hearing this, Bu La narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a while.

I thought this was not a bad idea. After all, I was leading a group of native soldiers and I didn't expect them to achieve brilliant results.

Even if this battalion of native soldiers was completely wiped out, in his opinion, there was nothing to be sad about.

Although these natives were previously trained by the Japanese army and had good combat effectiveness to a certain extent, in Bu La's eyes, they were only slightly stronger than ordinary natives. After all, they could not be compared with the truly combat-capable troops he had led.

"Okay, you go over and take a look. Be careful. If there is an ambush, retreat first." Bula thought about it and nodded to agree to the other party's request.

He still did not forget to give a reminder. After all, there is no room for carelessness on the battlefield. If there is an ambush, it will be troublesome.

Not long after, a battalion of soldiers, led by a major, moved towards the Italian positions opposite like ghosts.

They all crouched down, walked lightly, with nervousness and curiosity in their eyes, wondering what secrets were hidden in the Italian position.

However, the imagined ambush did not occur.

The soldiers advanced cautiously, and every step seemed to step on Bula's heart, but until they successfully occupied the Italian position, no gunshots were heard.

The scene was so quiet that it was a little eerie, and Bu La couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Run away?" Bula was even more puzzled.

He really couldn't understand how the Italian army could disappear so quietly.

Could it be that they really noticed something in advance and then all ran away?

But this is too unreasonable. After all, this is the position they are stationed in. How can they just run away?

Bula stood there, looking at the empty Italian position, his brows furrowed even deeper, his mind full of doubts that he couldn't resolve.

"Sir, are they running away?" asked the major who had led the attack earlier with a puzzled look on his face.

He checked back and forth on the Italian position several times, and apart from the empty tents and some discarded debris, he could not see any trace of Italian soldiers. This situation was so abnormal that he could not understand it.

"I don't know. It shouldn't happen logically. This is an important military town. If we lose it, we can march straight in." Bu La frowned, looking puzzled.

In his opinion, from a military strategic perspective, such a strong military town is a vital stronghold. How could it be abandoned so easily?

The Italian army escaped so quietly, which is really unreasonable and unscientific.

"Do you want to continue the attack?" the major asked again. He was a little unsure at the moment. Although he had captured the Italian position without encountering any resistance, he still had to follow the instructions of his superiors on what to do next.

Hearing this, Bu La was also a little confused. He knew in his heart that the current situation seemed to be extremely favorable to his side, and if he continued to attack, he might be able to achieve greater results.

However, the inexplicable disappearance of the Italian army made him feel vaguely uneasy. He was always worried that there might be some bigger conspiracy behind it. If he continued the attack rashly and fell into the trap set by the enemy, it would be troublesome.

Therefore, he was not sure whether to continue the attack.

"Send a telegram to the commander first, report the situation here to him in detail, and wait for new orders." After thinking for a moment, Bu La felt that it would be better to be safe. After all, Commander Cun Yunsheng has rich combat experience and is knowledgeable. Facing this strange situation, he will definitely be able to make a wiser judgment.

It is better to wait for the instructions from the commander-in-chief first, so that I can feel more at ease.

"Yes." The major responded, and then hurried to arrange the telegram. He also hoped to get a reply from the commander as soon as possible so that he could clarify the next course of action. (End of this chapter)
