And at this time, Italy and Rome.

Rome is the capital of Italy and the location of the Roman Catholic Church. It is also the largest and most populous city in Italy. It is located in the plains of the lower Tiber River, more than 20 kilometers east of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

But when this building has a history of more than 2,500 years and was bombed by British and American air forces, it was beyond recognition.

And there are many other parties that were bombed and collapsed, and they were covered with creepy terrifying black pits.

Of course, there are still many places where thick black smoke is emitting, and the fire is still burning.

There are many Italian citizens or ambulance teams in these buildings and the bombed areas to put out the fire.

However, many people took the opportunity to let go of valuable assets and even dentures from the bodies that had been burned and bombed.

In the chaos of these scenes, more than 200 Leopard tanks and 100 Tiger tanks were rumbling in the wide area outside Rome, and quickly drove towards the downtown area of ​​Rome with great momentum.

Behind these tanks are the forces of two infantry divisions, and most of them are equipped with stg44 assault rifles.

In addition to these two infantry divisions and tank groups, four infantry divisions were divided into two groups and entered Rome, Italy from other places, preparing to assist the main German army unit that was planning to forcibly enter from the main gate of Rome.

A SS Panzer Division unit includes 8 tanks No. 2, more than 10 tanks No. 3, about 90 tanks No. 4, while there are only more than 10 tanks No. 3, 35 assault guns No. 3, 12 "Hornet" self-propelled artillery, six "Hornet" self-propelled artillery, and finally a number of Leopard tanks.

In addition, there are armored grenade regiments, armored reconnaissance battalions, 105mm howitzer battalions and other units, and a standard full SS armored division of about 17,000 people.

However, after Chen Yanlong traveled and reborn as Hitler, he changed the organization. In other words, all the SS armored division troops he assisted were equipped with Leopard tanks, Tiger tanks, and T-51 tanks, with 150 tanks each.

The number of armored divisions exceeded 27,000, almost 30,000.

Of course, although Chen Yanlong equipped so many tanks for these armored divisions, he did not let them all be dispatched; instead, he left some as reserves or for logistics.

However, this is much better than the original historical equipment, which is a very different difference.

Because according to historical records in later generations, the number of German tank divisions during World War II was generally more than 200. In 1940, when Nazi German head Hitler commanded 136 German divisions (including 10 armored divisions) to attack France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Norway and other countries, there were more than 200 vehicles.

However, in 1943, when the war began to be defeated one after another, the German army's tank population advantage immediately took a sharp turn, and the number began to shrink from more than 200 vehicles in the era of strong troops to 100 vehicles; even below 100 vehicles, but by 1945, there were only about a few dozen vehicles.

Moreover, tanks during this period were still very short of oil and quality assurance.

In fact, in addition to the Leopard, Tiger and T-51 tanks, Chen Yanlong also wanted to equip these German armored divisions with KV-2 heavy tanks.

The kv-2 heavy tank is a development type of the kv-1. It was a heavy tank of the Soviet Union in the early days of World War II. It was famous for its heavy armor and strong firepower. When Germany attacked the Soviet Union, the kv-2 tank was one of the few tanks that could withstand German 37 and 50mm caliber anti-tank guns. It was affectionately called "our dreadnought" by Soviet soldiers.

However, in the end, Chen Yanlong did not exchange these tanks, because his final decision still hoped to equip all T-51 tanks to fight the German armored division.

As for the German army now, they are still equipped with leopard and tiger tanks, it is because Chen Yanlong likes these two types of tanks, rather than saying that Chen Yanlong comes from later generations of technological developments. He feels that these two tanks have no disadvantages.

The troops that are now marching towards Rome, Italy are the three armored divisions and four infantry divisions assigned by Chen Yanlong to Rommel.

"Report! Marshal Rommel! Our troops have now surrounded Rome on three sides. With one order, we can attack Rome city within half an hour!"

As intelligence officer Shidowbwasse watched the Roman city get closer and closer, he immediately came to Rommel, who was sitting in the armored command vehicle, to report.

"Well! You send a message to the rebels first. If you don't want to be killed by us, then surrender immediately and let us take over the defense of Rome and even the entire Italy! Otherwise, don't blame our upcoming military actions and killings!"

Rommel nodded, pondered for a moment, and gave an order.

"Yes! Marshal Rommel! I'll go right now!"

Intelligence officer Shi Daubwasse saluted a military salute and replied loudly.

"Slow down! By the way, you will not only send what I just said to the king of Italy, but also to all the rebels, and even the citizens of Rome!"

"We want to enter Rome in a high-profile manner, and clean up whoever is blocking our way, including the Italian king Emanuele III and the Pope!"

Rommel suddenly added.

"Yes! I get it! I will handle it neatly!"

Intelligence officer Shidowbwasse responded respectfully again.

Then he hurriedly left to do things, and Rommel called his private staff Major Albert Hard Wolflame, General Alfred Gauss and Chief of Operations Staff, and discussed with them the fastest speed, the armored troops and infantry divisions were first to conquer the city of Rome.

And at this moment, the entire Roman high-ranking, the aristocratic circle, the rich circle, the various major forces, and the bourgeoisie were panicked, and many people were worried and sweating, driving towards the Italian palace, or running over to meet King Emanuele III.

"Not good! No good! Your Majesty the King! The German army is approaching our city of Rome!"

In a short while, the same sentence that echoed the most in the Italian palace was the same sentence.

Then many nobles and nobles came to the palace hall in panic and horrified manner, surrounding King Emanuele III to report various forces about Rommel and conduct three-sided encirclement.

"Your Majesty! The situation is very critical now. Why don't we evacuate Rome immediately and stabilize our position in other cities, and then wait for us to reorganize our troops and the alliance with the British and American troops, and then we will fight with the German army!"
