My German Empire

About North Africa war, a lot of military fans in the later generation nuts to Longmeir "no strategic vision". One of the very important reasons is that after winning Tobrook, I don't wait for my denten to attack Malta, and the logistics supply cannot be guaranteed to eventually lose Alaman. If you wait for Deyi to succeed in Malta, it is not a big break of the army, called Montgomery, and it is not beautiful?

However, people discussing this problem seem to forget, Malta is really so good?

The Malta Islands is located in the middle of the Mediterranean. It consists of five islands. The population is about 280,000.

It seems that a famous island, but the north is Italy, and the south is its colonial Libya, which is a Mediterranean transfer station. Its strategic status has always been a must for the military, known as the "Mediterranean Heart", and even certainly determines the fate of North Africa battlefield.

Churchill mentioned in autobiography: "Since the Nelson Era, Mal Vali is like a loyal British sentinel, defending the narrow, important sea corridor in the central sea. In this war, it is in the strategy The importance is greater than in the past. "When he suggested, when the World War I broke out, there were three military airports on the island, and then three, so it formed three royal fighters squadron, and three A bomber squadron and a 14,000-person defending force, which can attack the enemy transport fleet or the transport fleet of protecting oneself.

At the beginning of the North African War after the Germans arrived, the German Air Force under Catherine Yuan Shuai entered Italy, with the big power of Dali, the British army stationed Malta is bombarded, almost exploded the military facilities on the island. Two nets.

Shortly, the German Navy's U-type submarine has sneaked into the Mediterranean Sea through the Straight of the Straight of Gibraltar, and has expanded two large battleships in the UK Royal Navy at the end of 1941. Although the British will reinforce Malta from time to time, the big battleship and plane immediately have been smashed by the German Sea Air Force. Therefore, the whole 41 years, Malta island is dead. When the material is most difficult, Malta even has to implement a strict food distribution system.

The Germans have even developed the "Higlis" action, preparing to implement amphibious landing on Malta, completely occupying the island.

But the beard has never approved the implementation of the action, and the main reasons are two: The development of the North African War Bureau in the first half of 42 years makes him think that there is no need to launch a big risk. LOMER's African African Legion captured Tobuk in June, attacked Egypt, it seems that the Drink Manor River is just a matter of time; secondly, the painful memory of the Crete Battle is too deep, he is very worried Malta's airborne combat will make the paratroopers and troops again, and the Air Force's commander Gallin also gave the "Haiglis" action against the same point, eventually leading to the "Haygelis" action to be put on hold.

In July 42, since the East Line broke the Battle, the front line urgently needs to fight the plane, so the German Air Force team stationed in Italy withdraws to the Soviet battle, which gives the British asthorn. Then, a large number of aircraft ships were dispatched again, and the British fleet came from the Strait of the Gibraltar, launched the "Battle of the Battle".

In the entire combat operation, although the British fleet of the merchant ship, most of them were sinking in the German Sea Air Army, the Royal Navy also lost a large air carrier "Eagle"; but a small shopping boat arrived in North Africa or a British army under Montgomery A large amount of supplies. In the future, the battle of North Africa turns "Alaman" and launched a good foundation.

The British combat power recovery on Malta is is also amazing.

On October 23, 42, the Alaman's campaign broke out, and the 10,000 tons of fuel required by Londer's demanded only 600 tons, all of which were sinking in the Mediterranean; the Germans of the lack of leisure, the Germans of the lack of low-end low-end could not live the food. The British army, only three months of landing.

Immediately, the Germans all the way to the west, in order to save the situation, the Air Force has attracted many times, covering the transportation fleet, and finally transported a group of urgently needed materials. After the rest, Longmeir immediately directed a point of the German counterattack, The British army was rebuilt in the Caesarin Shankou Campaign, but this is already the final backlight of the African Legion. At this time, its replenishment is almost cut by the British Royal Air Force on Malta!

On March 23, 43, the 40048 tonnage vessel was defeated by the Royal Air Force in the Mediterranean Sea. On April 19, 43, the Battle of Tunisia broke out, and the principle of the Germans did not receive a bullet, a drop of oil. In about a month, the Royal Air Force sinking more than 20 German shipping ships, completely cutting up the replenishment of the African Legion, which is equal to the death penalty of the African Legion.

On May 13th, 250,000 German African Legion soldiers were surrendered, and the North African battlefield ended in the British army!

Subsequently, the British Union army was a springboard with Malta. After full preparation, the Battle of Sicily was launched, and the Italian bombs were launched, and forced Italy to withdraw from the French Idea camp.

In summary, Malta island is visible to the importance of the North African battlefield. However, the German joint military did not completely step on the Malta, causing the dead ashes. Anti-Military Face, although the UK lost heavy losses in the war, but its reinforcement to Malta has not stopped until the arrival of victory.

Now, it is easy to win the "European Joint Fleet" after the Gibraltar, and it is mighty to Malta.

This also allows Yaki to have a high experience. I feel that such a configuration is killing chicken with laser knife. He got a hit Malta, and he went straight to Alexander Port to completely annihilated the British Mediterranean Fleet, but finally.

On Malta Island, there was a 14,000-person defending force, and Cocogel seems to be preheated. Avitation has urged five thousand soldiers to support Malta from Alexander Port a few days ago.

The next morning, I just launched, the German Air Force 40 Founder Bomber, 80 mosquito bombers patronize the islands of this Mediterranean in 50 BF-109 covers.

Because there is no radar warning, there is no depth, the Barba has only 20 vintage aircraft, and it is opened to the ground.

The Sturk bomber then starts to search for the air defense position on the ground and destroyed it, while the mosquito bomber conducts a carpet bombing of those important facilities. These mosquito bombers have also got all in the future and will be light of all the bombs, and 100 bombers are sent to it. More detailed destruction is performed earlier.

As these bombs paved the bombing of Maltese, an annoying scripture was sent to London.

"Malta is in a hurry, the bombing of the Germans is over once ..."

"The 100 bombers in Germany air stroke Valletta, causing thousands of civilians casualties!"

These texts are like steel needles, stimulating the British fragile heart. If Malta island is lost, the German army is actually divided into two Mediterranean.
