Chapter 868: Target Middle East

At the last moment, Lindemann finally made his choice.
In World War I, Britain has lost a generation of youth, and now, the blood of British soldiers cannot be shed in vain.
After seeing the facts clearly, Lindemann finally gave up. Since he could not fight against Germany and saved the lives of these fighters under his men, it was even more important.
The order of surrender was given by him. This heavy burden is for him to bear. The life of every soldier below is precious!
The war is over.
The South African Division in Alexandria surrendered in the middle of the night, but the army led by Montgomery, who took various cargo ships and left Alexandria at night, was missing.
In the desert of the Giza Plateau, southwest of Cairo, a motorcade stopped.
"Head of State, welcome to North Africa." Outside the car door, the tall and handsome Rommel shouted to the people in the car.
The great head of state Cyric, after learning that Egypt had been restored, could not wait to take a special plane and fly to Egypt!
Moreover, the first thing Cyric did after getting off the plane was to come here. On this civilized land with a long history, tall and triangular buildings are standing.
pyramid.
Cyric in his previous life used to like to travel very much. When he was in college, he used to cycle to many places. Cyric had long been interested in the pyramids, but he had never had a chance.
And now, finally, Egypt has surrendered under the iron hoof of Germany, and Cyric's secret trip this time is to visit the pyramids.
"The one in front of us is the largest pyramid in Egypt." Rommel actually only saw it today. The march last night was in the dark and it was not considered passing by.
This pyramid is the tallest, it is equivalent to a 40-story skyscraper.
It is said that 100,000 people worked under the scorching sun and the whip of supervisors. It took ten years to build stone roads and catacombs. It took another 20 years to build the tower. The entire project lasted more than 30 years.
Now, there is no cultural relics protection organization to make trouble, and Cyric looks at the rocks outside that have been corroded in the long years, and he is interested.
"Rommel, we Bibi, who climbed to the top first?" Cyric said suddenly.
It's been almost 20 years since he crossed over. Cyric has also changed from a young man to a middle-aged man, about the same age as Rommel.
Now, after hearing Cyric's proposal, Rommel was also eager to try: "Well, great head of state, I won't let you."
The guards on the side frowned, no matter who it was, a mistake would make them very nervous!
However, they had no choice but to follow the two of them, follow them, and climb the tall pyramid.
Over the years, Cyric has not neglected to exercise. You must know that the body is the capital of the revolution.
At the same time, Rommel was the same. At the beginning, both of them strode, almost half-running toward the top.
The steps are so high that you must lift your feet to go up. At the same time, over the long years, a lot of yellow sand has accumulated.
After running dozens of floors, the two finally slowed down.
Rommel's breathing began to swift, and he looked at Cyric on the side and saw that the other person had almost the same expression.
It was just running, now it's walking, and after going up for a while, it almost becomes crawling.
Finally, when the two reached the highest peak, they were already using both hands and feet.
Gasping heavily, the two reached the top almost at the same time. By this time, it was already past five in the afternoon.
The sun shone high from the western sky, and the shadow of the pyramid was stretched very long. Sitting on the top, both of them were full of spirits.
A group of guards also climbed to the side breathlessly, forming a wall of people. If anyone falls, they will be protected immediately.
"Well, Rommel, it seems you are not old yet," Cyric said.
"Head of State, I have always admired you. Your vision is better than all of us. Today, I admire your body. You are the greatest person in Germany." Rommel said.
At this time, the two sat side by side on the top of the pyramid, looking at the east, with an exotic scenery as far as they could see, but it was indeed beautiful!
"Rommel, what are your plans next?" Cyric asked.
The German army crossed the Mediterranean Sea, helped Italy and defeated Egypt. This was the primary task. Now, Egypt has fallen into German control. What will Germany do next?
The two routes, heading east and reaching the Middle East, can go all the way to Iran and connect with the British colony of India. After all, there is no Pakistan yet, and the Indian colony includes Pakistan.
In this way, the Indian Ocean also fell under German control.
The other direction is to go south and occupy Africa!
Africa is the main source of raw materials. For example, uranium ore has the best in Congo. At the same time, according to intelligence, King George VI fled to the south and may have arrived in Sudan.
It is impossible for Germany to invest too much in Africa. Now Rommel's military strength is already at its limit. Germany will then accumulate strength and prepare to overthrow the Soviet Union.
Cyric made a sudden visit this time, on the one hand, he came to Egypt to see, on the other hand, he wanted to hear Rommel's opinions.
"Go east, cross the Suez Canal, and occupy the Middle East!" Rommel said affirmatively.
Hearing Rommel's words, Cyric nodded in satisfaction, which also happened to be the answer he wanted.
"Why?" Cyric asked.
"Because of Africa, it will be ours sooner or later." Rommel said very clearly: "Africa is mainly French and British colonies. As our fighting progresses, these colonies will all be loyal to us sooner or later. To the east, We can accumulate a better strategic posture, and we can also contain the Soviet Union from the south."
As an outstanding general in Germany, Rommel's vision has also broadened, and, as in history, Rommel has always wanted to replicate the territory of the ancient Roman Empire.
The Middle East was once regarded as the center of the world.
"Of course, there is another reason." Rommel said: "Head Cyrek, I remember hearing you say that black liquid gold is buried underground in all countries in the Middle East. If we occupy there, we can control the world. wealth."
Hearing this, Cyric opened his mouth suddenly. Yes, he said that it was a time when he leaked his mouth and said it unconsciously. Unexpectedly, Rommel remembered it!
Below the Middle East, oil is buried everywhere. In later generations, the Middle East will be the focus of all major powers.
However, at present, the Middle East is not so famous.
For example, Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil producer, is still a backward emirate, and the lives of black people in Africa are no different.
Until the Second World War in history, Saudi Arabia was also an important material transfer point because it was close to the Red Sea. As a result, British soldiers accidentally dug up oil when digging trenches.
At this time, it was not well-known. No one knew how much oil there was underground in Saudi Arabia. Until the end of the war, after geological surveys, it was discovered that Saudi Arabia is simply a country floating on oil ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The entire Middle East, almost all Is such that!
Cyrek once predicted that Libya had oil, and the result was dug out. Now, Rommel's armored forces can gallop in Africa, relying on the oil directly provided by the Libyan base!
Cyric’s prediction was never wrong, so Cyric once said that there is a lot of oil in the Middle East, and Rommel remembered it.
The setting sun sprinkled its last radiance onto the earth. In the golden afterglow, two empire decision-makers stood at the top of the pyramid, and their figures grew taller.
"From here, across the Nile, to the Middle East, to South Asia, wherever the sun shines, it will become the land of the empire!" Cyric said: "Rommel, I officially inform you that you are already the marshal of the empire! You must lead the army of our empire and open up a larger territory for the empire!"
This is the beginning of a new era!
(I feel this picture is beautiful, what do you think?)
