"Major General!" General Zhu An said: "We do this... do we want to say something to the British or Americans, so that if there is any situation, we can get their reinforcements or coordination!"

Zhang Chi asked back: "General, what do you think would be the result if we told the Americans or British people this plan?"

Upon hearing this, General Zhu An couldn't help but remain silent.

General Zhu An knew very well that Britain and the United States would not agree to this plan at all. The result that the British and American sides told them would not change at all except for a burst of ridicule.

After a long silence, General Zhu An said, "Can we succeed in doing this?"

"I can only tell you that it is possible to succeed!" Zhang Chi replied: "You also know that things on the battlefield are inaccurate!"

"Yeah!" General Juan nodded, and then asked worriedly: "Major General, you should know that Palermo is the only German except for the Port of Messina and Syracuse, which can withdraw from Italy. If we take this port... will it lead to the Germans' siege on us?"

"It's possible!" Zhang Chi replied.

After all, that is the retreat of Germany and the Italian army.

"Then how do we deal with it?" General Zhu An asked.

Zhang Chi's answer is very simple: "Break them back!"

"But they are two divisions, and they are mechanized divisions and armored divisions." General Zhu An said: "If the combat effectiveness of the Italian army is not worth mentioning, then the two divisions of the German army..."

"General!" Zhang Chi interrupted General Zhu An's words and pointed to the map and explained: "First, no one knows that we are interspersed in Palermo, and the two German divisions should fight the Americans at our current location, right!"

"Yes!" General Zhu An nodded.

"Then..." Zhang Chi said: "If we suddenly take Palermo and the Germans return to Palermo..."

Hearing this, General Zhu An couldn't help but say "Oh", and then his eyes lit up: "If the Germans return to Palermo, they will shine their backs in front of the Americans!"

"Yes!" Zhang Chi nodded: "And you know, the Americans have a large number of Sherman tanks, especially these tanks are water-6 dual-purpose. I mean, they can drive ashore by themselves without loading and unloading at the port. At the same time, the performance of the Sherman tank is quite good. The Germans have seen this on the African battlefield. So, do you think the Germans dare to do this?"

"Of course not!" General Zhu An replied: "If they do this, they will have a dead end. I mean... Even if they turn around and take Palermo in time, they will have almost no time to withdraw!"

"Yes!" Zhang Chi said: "Because Americans will follow closely behind their butts, they will be in a dilemma of attacking on both sides, and it is not easy for mechanics and armored divisions to withdraw!"

"Then they..." When General Zhu An said this, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Chi in surprise, and his mouth could swallow an apple even with his wide open mouth.

"Yes!" Zhang Chi nodded and affirmed General Zhu An's thoughts, but he did not say it out.

The reason why they didn't say it was because some words were not easy to say clearly, and it seemed a bit unethical. If they didn't say it, it means that they didn't expect this consequence, so they could clear their relationship.

As for what the result...

If the port of Palermo has become an undesirable or dangerous port for the Germans, and on the other hand, if the port of Syracuse was captured by the British army, then the Germans had only one choice, that is, Port Messina.

But the Port of Messina is the destination of the British army... There will be a good show at that time. The Port of Messina, as the destination of the British army, is the only way for the Italian army to retreat.

In other words, Zhang Chi is actually leading the disaster to the British army.

Yes, this is indeed a disaster for allies, but Zhang Chi does not feel guilty about his behavior at all. On the contrary, Zhang Chi also feels a sense of pleasure: Didn’t the British want to show off? Then let them show off and fight against the main forces of the German and Italian troops, that must be very cool!

In fact, what is more important is that Zhang Chi has never forgotten the British army's murder of the Chinese expeditionary force in Myanmar. If we go a little further, even the Second World War was the result of the appeasement policy of Britain and the United States that led to dirty water on other countries, but they are now suffering from it.

Ironically, the British commander in Myanmar and now in Sicily were the same person... Alexander.

For General Zhu An, this result was also something he liked.

Because on the one hand, the originally insignificant French army can become the focus of the battle. On the other hand, the French also hate and even hate the British. Needless to say, the reason is that Britain killed France before.

What's more, Britain is still a supporter of the De Gaulle government in exile.

Even at this time, there were troops from the British army in exile, which means... While the British were using the battle of Sicily to build momentum for themselves, they were also building momentum for the Charles de Gaulle government they supported.

So this battle is not only a secret competition between the British and American armies, but also a competition between the Charles de Gaulle government and the Algiers government supported by the British and American countries.

This competition in history was obviously the loss of the Algiers government. The troops of the Degaol government gained a lot of reputation with the British army, but now... everything is unknown.

"Have you thought about it?" Zhang Chi asked General Zhu An: "You are the commander of the Zoafu Corps, you can make a decision!"

General Zhu An nodded without hesitation and said, "I decided to do it, just do it. To be honest, Major General, I was startled by your plan at first, and even thought you were crazy, but now... I also think I have to do it like this. This may be our only chance!"

Zhang Chi knew what General Zhu An mean. The "opportunity" mentioned by General Zhu An refers to the opportunity of the Algiers government. If you don't express it well this time, you may be under pressure to merge with the Charles de Gaulle government and be directed by Charles de Gaulle.

General Zhu An's concern certainly makes sense, and it is not in the interests of the expeditionary force. This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Chi spared no effort to help the Algiers government.

"Then..." Zhang Chi said while buckled his armed belt: "General, I should come out!"

"What?" General Zhu An couldn't help but stare at Zhang Chi with wide eyes: "Major General, are you saying... are you leading the team in person?"
