The Third Empire

"Boom!" An antiaircraft artillery shell exploded nearby and formed a black cloud around the aircraft. It looked so flirtatious.

The sound woke marshal Balbo up immediately. He turned his head and looked out of the porthole. At this time, a net composed of black smoke had come to him!

Damn it, warship anti-aircraft guns!

When the thought echoed in his mind, marshal Balbo burst into a cold sweat. He shouted, "come on, come on, avoid!"

If a fighter came after him, it would be acceptable. Maybe it was a British fighter, but now it's an attack from below! The British fleet suffered heavy losses and had no ability to move in the Mediterranean for a long time. It must be the Italian army who fired at him below!

If he can call now, he must scold the people below, but he doesn't. He can only shout loudly and let his plane escape quickly. As long as he leaves the air defense range of anti-aircraft guns, he can be saved.

Unfortunately, almost as soon as his voice fell, a terrible explosion frightened everyone.

On the side, an engine was hit and burned!

Then, along the engine, a shuttle of anti-aircraft artillery shells came almost horizontally.

Marshal Balbo's eyes were full of flames. Before he lost consciousness, all his pupils were the broken wing.

"Succeeded!" Cladio, below, shouted excitedly. He saw his 20mm shell, passed through the other party's engine and knocked off the other party's wing. Then, the bomber spun and fell down!

succeed! As you think, this antiaircraft gun is too old. Therefore, when aiming, you must hit two more ahead of time. That's why you can't hit it during this period of time!

Now, he finally succeeded. He shot down an enemy plane!

It's strange that the other side was not prepared before their own side opened fire. Are these British people of poor quality?

He stopped shooting. At this time, he returned to the sea, took a breath and shouted to the others: "come on, save our Marshal!"

Throughout Italy, the marshal can count with one hand. If you remove those old marshals who have long been unable to go to the battlefield, you can count with one hand.

Claudio's heart was extremely frightened because he recognized the face, which was the most powerful marshal Balbo in Italy and even designated as Mussolini's successor!

Get it up?

It's almost like fishing for a body.

Fortunately, the body was not swelled by the sea water. Marshal Balbo's body was soon picked up. Although the naval forces were extremely embarrassed, they reported the painful news.

They broke the record.

This record is unprecedented, and no one has ever broken the record of accidentally injuring the highest rank. An Italian Marshal died under his own anti-aircraft gun!

However, in order to hide his shame, Mussolini soon made a decision. Marshal Balbo died in the battle with the British! The national flag flew at half mast to observe silence over the death of the great marshal.

The news also reached Rommel's ears.

After hearing that Rommel came, field marshal Balbo came by plane. Originally, he could arrive in an hour, but he waited until dark!

Garibaldi was waiting anxiously at the oil base. The general Rommel around him could not wait to put forward the matter of taking over the command. Now, Garibaldi expects marshal Balbo to rise up. In North Africa, he is led by the Italian army.

But until dark, the anxious Garibaldi listened to one terrible news after another.

"You can't wait any longer." Rommel said: "the British army is going to hit tuplug, which will threaten our oil output. We must do it immediately!"

"General, let's wait for marshal Balbo." Garibaldi said that if we immediately counter attack, the Italian army must obey Rommel's command!

"General, no!" Just then, Garibaldi's adjutant hurried in and said, "marshal Balbo, unfortunately, died of a sneak attack by the British!"

Dead? Originally, Rommel also came to Balbo. How did he ask him for command? Now, he's dead? That's great! Rommel said: "since field marshal Balbo has died, now I will command the whole Libyan army, launch a counter offensive and avenge field marshal Balbo!"
