Although Rommel didn't like the Undead Army, he had to send this army to the front line.
On the one hand, it was of course a personal order from the head of state, forcing him to use this ghoul force that he hated so much.
On the other hand, it was also because this was the only reinforcement force Rommel could obtain.
At the beginning of the war, Germany relied on years of accumulation since its defeat in the last war. It had a very high-quality elite defense force. In order to retain valuable technical backbones, a large number of grassroots soldiers retired voluntarily. This gave Germany
It has quite a large number of high-quality soldiers.
It is precisely because of this that at the beginning of the war, Germany was able to mobilize a million-strong army and defeat Poland and France at once, making the entire Europe tremble under the iron heel of Germany.
From the Baltic Sea to the English Channel, everyone knows the evil reputation of Germanic tanks.
But there is no doubt that as the territory becomes larger, the fists that were originally held together are scattered.
Whether it was occupying France or swallowing Eastern Europe, the elite and superior strength of the German army was divided thinly.
Although after taking over France, Germany rapidly expanded its domestic troops, expanding its military strength from more than three million to more than five million, and also obtained a large number of slave troops from the conquered countries, the combat effectiveness of these newly formed troops was
Obviously not as good as the elite troops at the beginning of the war.
In addition, the failure of the attack on the Soviet Union caused the German army to lose a lot of effective strength, and the German army's military strength has gradually begun to be stretched.
Although Germany has widely mobilized young and middle-aged people, even teenagers and old people, to join the army, bringing the total military strength to more than 10 million, most of the troops must be placed on the east and west fronts to resist the Soviet counterattack while defending.
Atlantic coast to prevent British and French counterattacks.
This is why Rommel could command only twelve divisions on the African battlefield, eight of which were Italian divisions.
Because at this time, Germany really could not mobilize more troops to provide Rommel. Even though the mustachioed head of state deeply understood the importance of the African battlefield, he also gave Rommel the greatest support he could, but the military strength was so low.
It's really gone.
Under such circumstances, Mustache was willing to send the Second Division of the Undead SS to Rommel, which he held as a trump card, which was enough to show his support for Rommel.
Although for Rommel, he would rather give him two infantry divisions from the slave countries or one division of German recruits.
But at this point, Rommel could only play out the cards in his hand as much as possible. Whether he wanted to or not, he had to play the second game with the Egyptian army and Chen Mo.
Because as Erich said, the outcome of the North African battlefield is related to the outcome of the entire war, and is also related to the fate of the German Third Reich.
It's just that the start of the second game deviated from his expectations from the beginning.
————————————————
"The designation of the German army is the Second Division of the SS? That ghoul?" Taking the document from the staff officer, Chen Mo frowned and looked at it, only to see a message sent from the intelligence agency written on it, which clearly pointed out that the German army
The name of the reinforcements is the infamous ghoul army, a man-eating army.
This undead army is now quite famous, but it has the worst kind of notoriety.
During the Battle of Poland, this force entered the city of Warsaw, and the whole world saw the powerful combat power that human warriors can gain after necromancy is transformed.
But at the same time, the story of this undead army cannibalizing people was spread all over the world along with their powerful combat power.
However, Germany blocked the news very well at that time, and Britain and France hoped to use Germany to deal with the Soviet Union, so they suppressed the matter tacitly. As a result, although the bad reputation of the ghoul spread, it did not spread widely. Come.
It was not until the Battle of France later that this unit was thrown onto the battlefield again. The notoriety of the ghouls was now truly infamous and spread throughout Europe.
Under such circumstances, the high-ranking German army was of course very disgusted with this unit. Although the troops under their own command were not strictly disciplined and benevolent troops, at least everyone was still a little bit of a beast, but this group of SS soldiers This guy can already be considered a devil.
In fact, it was precisely because of this that Erich and this immortal army were affiliated with the SS establishment, because the German Army had always refused to accept this unit and refused to grant Erich a military rank or any military honors.
In the eyes of senior German generals, the existence of this man-eating unit is the greatest insult to a soldier.
This also led the German military leaders to abandon the human body modification and super soldier training plans they originally supported, and instead devoted their energy and resources to the development of more advanced military equipment.
If it weren't for Mustache's own obsession with mysterious powers and the support of Himmler, Goebbels and others, Germany's necromancy research would have almost suffered a serious blow.
However, even though Erich and the department he was responsible for successfully survived with the support of the SS system, the relationship with the military was completely broken, and the already fruitful research on the war machine series was completely terminated.
The corpses with weapons implanted and the humans integrated into the tanks were eventually killed and destroyed. The only preserved result of Erich and his magic research department is the undead army.
If it were other people facing this undead army, it would probably be very difficult, especially since the notoriety of cannibalism would be almost fatal to morale.
But for Chen Mo, using an army of ghouls to deal with him, a necromancer? Haha, it can only be said that the weather today is really good, suitable for a serial corpse explosion.
Everything Erich has learned was taught by the magic academy established by Chen Mo. He may be able to use some completely bottomless methods to conduct research and experiments, but how can real necromancy be done without being a human being? A breakthrough?
In more modern terms, necromancy covers a series of disciplines such as biology, medicine, pharmacy, chemistry, theology, mysticism, etc. Among them, Chen Mo only taught them the basic introductory courses for magic apprentices and other in-depth knowledge. Not taught at all.
If under such a gap in knowledge, Erich can still come up with something that can threaten Chen Mo, then he can claim to be the strongest in the world.
Because such talents are rare in the entire multiverse, and a world may not be born even from creation to destruction. Obviously Erich is not a super genius who can do this.
"Undead Army, then let me see how good your Undead Army is." Chen Mo closed the document in his hand and his eyes became sharp.
