While Gao Le was preparing for war in North Africa, training the indigenous army and developing the colonial industry, the latest intelligence from Europe made him feel anxious.
“What, Hans formed a North African Corps, is this news accurate?”
An intelligence officer who came from southern Europe delivered the latest intelligence to Dai Gaole, and this intelligence immediately made Dai Gaole nervous and unable to sit still!
“The news should be accurate, we have even found out who will be the commander of the North African Corps!”
“Oh? Who is it?”
Dai Gaole raised his eyebrows, his heart tightened, and he asked quickly.
He was eager to know who the head of the Third Reich would send to deal with him!
“It’s Rommel, commander of the Fifth Army!”
“It’s him!”
Dai Gaole breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned again.
There are many famous generals in the Third Reich, the most famous of whom are Guderian, Manstein and Model. These three are known as the three most famous generals in the world today, and they are the most powerful generals in the world. So when Dai Gaole heard about this, he subconsciously thought that the German army would send these three to deal with him!
If the German army really sent these three people, then he would be a little worried. After all, these three people are not only famous, but also have outstanding military exploits. The Battle of Gaul and the Battle of the British Empire were completed under their leadership. They destroyed two world-class powers in succession. There is no need to doubt the strength of these two people!
As for Rommel, although he is also one of the seven army commanders of the German army, his fame is undoubtedly much smaller than the three famous generals. Even Kesselring is more famous than him.
Moreover, in the Battle of Gaul, Dai Gaole’s main opponent was Guderian, and he didn’t fight with Rommel much, so he didn’t have a deep impression of this person, nor did he understand his strength.
However, Rommel Er did not enter the sequence of Hans’s three famous generals, which should prove that there is a certain gap between his strength and the three famous generals, which made him feel a little more at ease!
Rommel’s reputation is not as good as the three famous generals, and there is also a gap in strength. Mainz sent this person to attack him, which shows that he does not attach much importance to the attack on Africa. In this case, he should not send too many troops here, and this battle is still to be fought!
Moreover, the desert climate in Africa may not be suitable for the German armored forces here. When they are not acclimatized and have not established a firm foothold, they may not have no chance of winning!
Dai Gaole’s mind suddenly made a lot of associations, and even thought about how to take the initiative to attack and turn defeat into victory!
If Hans’s North Africa can be defeated in North Africa, then his three words”Free Gaul” and”Dai Gaole” will definitely spread all over the world!
Moreover, the 40 million Gauls in his country are greatly encouraged, and his prestige in the world must be at its peak!
Moreover, after breaking the myth of the invincibility of the German army, it can also inspire other countries that have conflicts with Hans and inspire their courage and confidence to confront Hans.
So Dai Gaole suddenly became interested in Rommel and his North African Corps. When would this army arrive in North Africa and how many people did they have?
“The number of troops in this army is still unclear, but they have already arrived in the southern region of our country and are gathering there.
The German army has withdrawn a large number of troops from its homeland and seven army groups to form this new corps.
The number of troops is estimated to be around 150,000 to 300,000.
After all, it is impossible for the troops of the seven German army groups to be withdrawn on a large scale.
That will directly affect the combat effectiveness of the German army itself!
”
The intelligence personnel gave some unclear information and added some of their own judgments.
Dai Gaole thought his speculation was very reasonable:”Well, if I were Mainz, I would not send too many people over. After all, Africa is not Hans’ base. Their base is still in Europe!”
“You return to Europe immediately and keep a close eye on the movements of Hans’ African Corps. You must find out the size of their forces and the exact time they will send out their troops. If possible, find out the target location of their troops. This is very important for us!”
Dai Gaole decided to take the initiative instead of waiting passively, but taking the initiative requires sufficient intelligence, so he attaches great importance to the investigation of German intelligence.
If the German army is in the Third Reich, it would be quite difficult to infiltrate the intelligence system into the Third Reich.
However, at this time, the German army is gathering in the south of Gaul.
Although this place is occupied by the German army, the people here are mainly Gauls.
Therefore, it is very easy for the Gauls to inquire about intelligence here.
They can disguise themselves as various identities and use the local identities of the Gauls as cover.
They can easily lurk.
Even if the SS is so powerful, it is impossible to discover and find them so easily!
This is a great advantage for Dai Gaole’s plan!
“Yes, General, I will return home now. Do you have any other instructions?”
The intelligence personnel respected Dai Gaole very much. After all, when the whole country of Gaul surrendered to Hans, he was able to lead a group of brave Gauls to resist outside and insisted on using force to recover Gaul. This behavior was actually supported by many people in Gaul. Although everyone did not dare to support Dai Gaole openly, they were more or less on Dai Gaole in their hearts.
After all, no one wants to be a slave of a conquered country. Although Hans is not particularly oppressive to Gaul now, the Gauls still hope to become the powerful world power again!
“Well, after completing this mission, you go to Vichy to meet Marshal Pétain!”
Dai Gaole thought for a moment and added,”We are very short of supplies in North Africa. If he has any resources, I hope he can help us!””
……
“Haha, let me help him? I can’t even protect myself, how can I help him?”
After receiving Dai Gaole’s request for support, Marshal Pétain smiled bitterly and said helplessly:
“Everyone says that I am the current dictatorial president of Gaul, but everyone ignores that I am just a puppet.
The one who is in charge of Gaul now is not our own government, but the Hans.
Gaul is just a colony of the Hans after all.
All our domestic factories need to serve the Third Reich.
Our own government does not control many factories at all, and we do not have many troops.
It is simply impossible to transport a batch of supplies.
So you go back and tell Dai Gaulle that we can’t support him!
”
Marshal Pétain was very careful. He was already taking a huge risk by meeting with Dai Gaulle’s representatives here. If he went to provide support to Dai Gaulle again, the Hans would never forgive him easily once they found out!
