This is exactly what Britain in the history does. When it finds that it cannot defeat the United States, it joins the ranks of the United States and becomes an ally of the United States, which can also be said to be a follower.

Because of this accidental reason, a peaceful transition between existing powers and newly emerging powers has occurred for the first time in history.

After talking to Eisenhower, the Allied Command was in a state of silence for a long time... There was no news, no combat plan, and no intelligence on the front line.

This is very strange, because anyone knows that the German army has already built defense lines in the Alps at this time, and the situation will be more unfavorable to the Allies as they drag down. Therefore, at least one should have an active preparation state of "a storm is about to come and the wind is coming."

Or, Zhang Chi was wondering... if the Allied Command blocked all the information from the French army, believing that the French army did not need to know further situations and make corresponding preparations for these situations.

Later, Zhang Chi realized that the fact was not the case at all, because even the United States, including Eisenhower, did not know any combat plans.

The main reason is that the British selfishness, because he once again formulated a combat plan that was beneficial to the British army, and because he was worried that the United States would delay the opposition, he was reluctant to move out.

This is ridiculous because it is a war, and if you are not careful when making plans, it will cause the death of hundreds of soldiers and even fail the entire plan, but the British still treat it as if they were planning the Battle of Sicily.

From this point of view, the British still failed to learn from the losses of the Battle of Sicily.

However, it is indeed not easy to learn from the lessons, because everyone will think... The Battle of Sicily is just an accident. From the immediate interests, of course, it is better to be biased in the plan than to treat the British army fairly.

However, the ugly daughter-in-law finally had to meet her parents-in-law. It was not until more than half a month later that Zhang Chi received another notice of going to Cairo for a meeting.

Before the meeting began, Eisenhower whispered to Zhang Chi: "I have a premonition that the British are going to play tricks again!"

Zhang Chi agreed with this. In fact, even Eisenhower didn't know the combat plan... This is obvious.

After the meeting began, Alexander first talked about the so-called "all countries should unite and jointly deal with fascist countries", then picked up a document on the desktop and yang, saying: "This is our plan to attack Italy. Of course, it is just a preliminary plan. We still need to decide together on how to fight!"

After everyone got a plan, Alexander continued: "I will briefly talk about this plan. Our landing site is the two regions of Salerno and Taranto. Our mission is to ensure that the troops can indeed occupy a bridgehead in Italy and push the defense line northward, so that our naval forces can freely pass through the Strait of Messina without being intercepted by enemy artillery fire."

When Alexander said this, Zhang Chi immediately thought: Salerno must have arranged it for the British army and Taranto had arranged it for the US army.

The reason is very simple. Salerno is the closest place to Sicily. The artillery fire in Sicily can hit Salerno. According to the reconnaissance of the German army only has two battalions... The reason is that the space in this area is very narrow, with the tip of the boots, and under the coverage of Sicily's firepower, the German army did not dare to arrange too many troops here at all.

As you can imagine, the British army can easily land and gain a place after a fire.

On the other side, Taranto is far away from Sicily, and it is difficult to get fire support from the Allied forces, and the German army is relatively more numerous and has a regiment.

But this is pretty good. In short, it will not be too difficult to land, because the main purpose of the German army was not to prevent the Allied forces from landing. They knew that it was unrealistic to prevent the Allied forces from landing after the Allied forces occupied Sicily. They just wanted to buy more time to build a stronger line of defense in the Alps to block the Allied forces' attack.

But what Zhang Chi didn't expect was that this time he guessed wrong. The British were much more shameless than Zhang Chi and Eisenhower imagined.

Alexander continued: "Once we land successfully, we must consolidate our position immediately, and the subsequent troops will cross the defense line built by the landing troops and move forward..."

"Wait!" Eisenhower interrupted Alexander, looking at the documents, and asked, "Are you mistaken? Both login sites use British troops?"

"No, that's our plan!" Alexander replied.

"What?" Eisenhower couldn't help but be stunned: "Then where do we attack?"

"The US military is the follow-up force!" Alexander replied: "As I said, after we successfully landed and built a line of defense, you will cross our line of defense and advance forward!"

Eisenhower opened his mouth wide in surprise. After a long time, he asked, "How can you do this?"

"Is there any problem?" Alexander asked in a pretentious manner: "This is a decision we made after careful study, because we think... if two troops were allowed to attack from two positions at the same time, there would be a coordination problem similar to the Battle of Sicily, and if the two troops were divided into two different waves, there would be much less coordination problem!"

Zhang Chi looked at Alexander in disbelief. This was not only because Alexander could say such words, but also because he was calm and ashamed after he said these words... This was simply a practice to become an immortal.

Because everyone knows that the main force of the Germans is not on the shore, and the Allies have fully grasped the sea and air power, and have the support of Sicily, landing is almost no problem.

The difficulty is how to advance forward, because there is no doubt that when advancing, there will definitely be more and more German troops, and the supply line will become difficult to supply as it advances... But Alexander called the US military responsible for the advancement task the follow-up force, which means that the British army solved the main task, and the US military just needs to follow forward.

Eisenhower's face turned gray, and he gritted his teeth and said gloomyly: "General, then I want to know why it is not the US military for the landing mission? You know, the US military has more experience in this area, and we also have more landing equipment!"
