In the original historical time and space, Egypt and the Suez Canal were not attacked by the German army; that was because Mussolini and the top leaders of Italy were worried that the German army would gain more colonial interests in North Africa, and that Hitler's main battle target at that time was not the Middle East at all, but the European battlefield and the Eastern Front battlefield.

Of course, because the German army encountered a tenacious counterattack from the British army when it launched the capture of Crete, a lot of troops were injured and killed. At the same time, because Franco did not allow the German army to enter Spain, Malta and the Strait of Gibraltar were not attacked by the German army on a large scale.

As for the role of the Italian Navy here, it is very slim and not worth mentioning at all.

Because Hitler did not take the Italian Navy seriously, and did not pay any attention to it.

If the Italian Navy knew that Hitler despised their Italian Navy so much, I'm afraid that Mussolini and the Italian Navy would be so angry that they gritted their teeth.

However, Hitler's failure was that he wanted to fight with Britain and suddenly ran to attack the Soviet army. When the Japanese army attacked the US Pearl Harbor, Hitler immediately launched a declaration of challenge to the United States.

In short, Hitler did a series of bad things to seek death, which made the German army fall into the east and west fronts, and also fall into the road to defeat and destruction of the country.

When Hitler chose to fight on the east and west fronts, the two mortal rivals, Admiral Redel and Air Marshal Gore, agreed for the first time, and shook hands and spoke out together to persuade Hitler to fight on both sides.

The final result was that Hitler did not listen to anyone's advice and began to deploy his Mediterranean strategy on his own, and finally fell into the abyss of fighting between the east and west and could not extricate himself.

So whenever Chen Yanlong thinks of these things that Hitler did without any strategic value, he feels very depressed and needs to find ways to make up for the mistakes Hitler made.

So when Zhukov hurried to the command center of Stalingrad and was preparing to discuss the deployment of the Leningrad-Novgorod battle with Marshal Rokosovsky, Chen Yanlong had also arrived at the garrison in Kesseling, Italy on an AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter.

At this moment, Kesseling also led a group of German officers in person to greet Chen Yanlong at the temporary airport in the heavily guarded garrison position.

"Hi! Hitler!"

When Chen Yanlong walked out of the AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter that had already stopped, Keselin walked up to Chen Yanlong and greeted a Nazi tribute loudly.

"I'm glad to see you, Marshal Keseling!"

Chen Yanlong also happily replied with a greeting.

"So too! Head of State!"

Keselin also said with a bright smile.

"How have the Gustav defense line been built and the defensive fronts in the Casino area?"

After Chen Yanlong smiled slightly again, he immediately made the point.

"It's under rushing to work, and it will probably take about a month to complete the defensive front you need in the Head of State!"

Keseling said frankly.

"Can you add more manpower and prisoners of war to rush to work?"

"Even those Jews can do it, I hope to complete all the defensive fronts in our Casino area in two weeks!"

"Because I feel that the British and American troops may launch a sneak attack on our Casino area in recent times!"

"And the intelligence collected by our intelligence agencies gradually showed that my intuition was right!"

"It's just a pity that I don't know the exact time and location of the attack they launched, as well as their forces and weapons and equipment!"

Chen Yanlong said.

"As long as you can give me a large number of prisoners and the Jews to help build a defensive front, I can complete the tasks you assigned as soon as possible!"

Keseling nodded and responded.

"Okay! I will let Himmler dispatch prisoners and Jews to you!"

"There are not many in our concentration camps, just these Jews and prisoners!"

"So you don't have to worry about labor, but don't kill and torture them casually when dealing with these prisoners and Jews!"

"Because I want the whole world to know that our Germany is not only a country that treats prisoners well, but also a civilized country full of chivalrous spirit!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yanlong said with satisfaction.

Then the two of them talked about other things, and then walked into an Italian castle occupied by Keselin to rest and continue to discuss other military situations.
Chapter completed!
