Chapter 672: The end of the war in North Africa
The first wave of sunshine represents a new arrival and also represents the arrival of dawn.
Of course, this dawn was the beginning of darkness for Eisen.
Last night, both Han and the United States fought for a whole night, and the soldiers on both sides were very tired, and they could even be said to be extremely tired.
But behind such fatigue is the change of the battle situation.
After one night's attack, Citi had lost their fifth line of defense and had now retreated into the city to engage in street battles with the Han army.
Even Citi has lost one-fifth of the land in Fayum City. The Han army can be said to have gained a firm foothold in Fayum City.
The reason why the Han army was able to gain a foothold in the city so quickly was their combat methods.
Even in street fighting, the Han soldiers would not fight hard with the Citi soldiers at all. When they saw that there was something they could not defeat, they immediately called for artillery to bombard them.
If the gun caliber is not good, then use heavy cannons to bomb, and anyway, it is necessary to kill Citi.
As for the civilian casualties caused by this, it is not within the scope of consideration of these veterans.
And what about Citi?
Citi had heavy artillery before, but because of the night, he was beaten to retreat, all the heavy artillery were lost on the artillery positions outside the city, making the Han army free to take advantage of it.
Maybe some shells were fired out with Citi cannons.
Now Citi has no 75mm caliber artillery, only mortars and war defense cannons.
And Citi's number is also declining sharply.
Before the war broke out in the evening, Citi had about 200,000 people, of which 50,000 were sent to the southwest defense line to attack the Han army's positions, while the remaining 150,000 people were in the city and on the fifth line of defense.
After a night of fierce fighting, Citi's 150,000 troops have only less than 100,000 troops.
And they were all a group of tired troops. They didn't have many heavy weapons, and many of the weapons and ammunition supplies were left outside the city.
Lack of heavy weapons and ammunition, it can be said that Citi seems to be coming to an end.
And it was under such circumstances that Eisen hesitated.
Because their reinforcements will arrive in Fayum this afternoon.
Although it would be very exhausting to travel for two days, where is the number of 300,000 people? No matter how bad it is, it can defeat the Han army, which has been fighting for a day and a night, right?
But Eisen knew that the Han army's troops in Sanhul were very close to this place, and it was very likely that they had already started to move yesterday. If he had calculated correctly, the Han army's troops in Sanhul would also arrive in Fayum this afternoon.
Thinking of the 800,000 Han troops, Aisen's face was filled with pain. He never expected that he would be defeated so quickly and thoroughly.
I had just set up a formation and had not yet displayed my talents. As a result, the Han army directly waved 300,000 troops to start attacking me!
Until now, I am about to perish.
"How many troops do we have in the city now?"
Aisen sat in his seat with a little bit of silence and asked softly.
"We still have about 80,000 troops in the city!"
The staff officer next to him whispered.
Everyone who had not slept for a night was covered in blood and fatigue.
They have also not slept for a day and a night in a row, and they feel very tired.
After hearing this, Aisen raised his wrist and looked at the time, and found that it was already 7:30 in the morning.
Looking at the sunshine outside, he smiled helplessly.
"There are more than 80,000 troops? Haha! I didn't expect it! I really didn't expect it! I didn't expect it to be defeated so quickly!"
Eisen smiled bitterly. The world is full of so many incredible things.
Before, he thought about coming to North Africa to defeat the Han army and make achievements.
As a result, the subsequent series of things hit him a blow.
“How much weapon and ammunition are there in our country?”
After a while, Eisen asked softly.
"There are not many! Almost all of our heavy weapons have been lost! This is the case with our ammunition. Now our ammunition is scarce."
We all know that Citi's firepower is not as powerful as the Han army, except for the Han army, Citi is one of the best firepower in the world.
The price of strong firepower is the huge consumption of ammunition.
Citi soldiers had no sense of saving ammunition, just like Han soldiers. Because of their strong national strength, soldiers had no idea about saving ammunition.
Unlike the Japanese, who used to be a manual bolt-pull rifle, a person can fight two wars with one or two hundred bullets on his body.
For Citi soldiers and Han soldiers, one or two hundred bullets are not enough for a battle!
"Is the ammunition going to be consumed?"
After hearing this, Aisen couldn't help but shake his head.
"Give power to the Han army, we surrender! Let the soldiers put down their weapons, and generate power to the 300,000 troops who came to support, so that they can retreat to Ethiopia immediately and wait for the new commander to be sent to the country! In addition, the same is true for the 300,000 troops behind us, let them retreat immediately and not delay any further. If necessary, they can abandon all unnecessary supplies and supplies.
In addition, power will be generated for Benesuver's troops, so that they will not attack the Han army anywhere, and retreat to the Ethiopian region as soon as possible, and wait for the dispatch of new commanders in the country!"
After saying this, Eisen said with a wry smile: "Now all I can do is this. I hope the domestic movements can be faster!"
Citi surrendered! To be precise, Fayum's Citi surrendered.
Benesuver and the six hundred thousand troops behind began to retreat immediately, abandoning all unnecessary baggage and retreating to the Ethiopian region.
Faced with these situations, Lu Yinglin didn't care, and Wang Chenggang didn't care.
They all knew that as long as Citi's commander was taken down, it would take one week for the United States to send another commander to command.
One week was enough for their armored cluster to assault several times.
When the news of the surrender of Citi's commander in North Africa reached the Han Empire, Han Ling was stunned for a moment and felt relieved.
The Han Empire, Forbidden City, Xiyuan, Military Command Hall
"Your Majesty! Wang Chenggang has sent a message that Citi's commander in North Africa, Eisen, had surrendered yesterday, November 17th.
But Citi has about one million and four million troops retreating towards the Ethiopian region. Their vitality is still there!"
