Sleeping in front of Donatero's eyes gradually became brighter, and he didn't know how long he had been sleeping. In short, when he slowly opened his eyes, he only saw a tall German officer in front of him. The sun was a little dazzling. He couldn't see the rank clearly, but the other party's face looked so familiar.

Several people next to him helped Donatero up. After Donatero sat up, the tall officer said, "What's your name, Corporal?"

"Donatro, the Italian 27th Division, participated in the suicide squad," said Donatro.

At this time, more and more people were around him, and his brain became clearer and clearer. Finally, when he saw the Italian officer behind the German officer, he suddenly became completely awake.

The one behind is not Italy's supreme commander in North Africa, Marshal Graziani?

So, was this German officer in front of him Rommel?

Thinking of this, he was shocked.

"Corporal, what was the result of yesterday?" the German officer asked kindly.

"Yesterday I used a submachine gun to kill more than a dozen enemies. I can't count them, because I really didn't remember it until the end. Well, there were no bullets later, and in the end, I was bitten to death."

The blood on Donatro's mouth was already dry, but in the posture just now, the death of the Indian soldier beside him must not be pretended.

Donatero spoke very plainly, as if he was eating a plate of spaghetti, but the people around him felt a shock.

If the bullet is gone, just use your teeth to bite the other party to death. Such a soldier is absolutely invincible! This is definitely the glory of Italian soldiers!

"Corporal Donatero, now I will promote you to Major." Graziani said: "You are the glory of our Italian soldiers. I hope you will give a report to the party leader of Mussolini carefully."

Of course, Graziani knew that this soldier would be set as an example for the entire army and let all Italian soldiers learn from it. In this way, the Italian army would become the same steel army as the German army!

He was promoted several levels in a row and became a major in one go. This was definitely not seen in the Italian army for many years. This is also an incentive. As long as he is brave enough on the battlefield, he can achieve an extraordinary improvement!

"Yes!" Donatro stood up and saluted Marshal Graziani.

"Young man, your bravery last night is enough to reward you with a Level 2 Iron Cross. Now, on behalf of the African Legion Command, I promise to reward you with one." Rommel also said from the side.

Iron Cross! This is an extremely high honor for German soldiers, and Italian soldiers have never received it. Now, Rommel said that he would reward him, which made him extremely excited. This is the highest honor!

"Thank you, Commander," Donatro said, saluting Rommel again.

Rommel returned the greeting. At this time, the Italian soldiers coming from all over the place were already crowded.

Rommel stepped on a bunker with his boots. He looked at the Italian soldiers below and said loudly: "Everyone may know that in the past, you actually had a nickname called Noodle Army!"

The noodle army is not only called by Britain, France, and even Germany complains about its friendly forces in private. Rommel said it now, which is even more ironic.

"You are like noodles, and when you fight, you will be a mess. However, last night's battle has proved with facts that you are not a noodle army, but an iron army!"

Rommel's words made a fighting spirit burn in the eyes of all Italian soldiers.

"Facing with the enemy, even if it is stronger than our own enemies, as long as we have the will to fight, we can defeat them, just like this Corporal Donatero, who has no bullets and still uses his teeth to bite the enemy's throat! If we have thousands of Donateros, I can say that our Italian army can also fight all over Europe and even the whole world like our German soldiers!"

"Our military flag is stained with our blood. Our military soul will never be destroyed. We are an army of steel! Today, we conquered the Mitria mountains, tomorrow, we will rush to Alexandria, and the day after tomorrow, we will occupy the Suez Canal!"

"Our journey is that the entire North Africa and the Middle East. Our German army and the Italian army will fight side by side. I believe that every Italian soldier will write his loyalty to the country like Donatro! Long live the great Axis Alliance!"

"Long live!" A loud shout burst out from the entire position. This sound floated across the Mitria Mountains, across Alexandria, and drifted throughout the Middle East and the world.

After last night's battle, Rommel's most powerful North African and Middle East legions finally roared like a lion. This most terrifying legion will conquer the Middle East and the world!

This was a moment of victory for the German and Italian armies, and for the British army opposite, the result was difficult for them to accept.

"Is our Indian division really defeated by the Italian army?" Looking at the rising sun and looking at the sand table, Montgomery could not accept this fact anyway.

His own army was actually defeated by the Italian army, and the Italian army actually took the initiative to attack!

I was too negligent last night, but if I were given a chance to choose again, I would still do that. In the north, there were strong German armored troops, and I had to focus on the north. There was no problem in defending the southern defense line.

Who knew that the Noodle Army suddenly turned into an iron army, defeating the Indian division and snatching the Mitria Mountains in the south.

In this way, there will be gaps on our fronts, and the German and Italian troops will continue to pour out from the south, and the troops that are still on the front line of the anti-Japanese war will be in danger of being wiped out.

I'm afraid I'll lose this battle!

"We cannot retreat now. If we retreat, the German army will catch up and our troops may be defeated in the retreat." With the previous experience of retreating from France, Montgomery is quite clear.

Most of his army was infantry divisions, and they could not escape the German tanks at all. Once they lost the fortifications of Alahman, retreat could easily turn into a defeat. The Germans could even chase in front of their retreating troops and calmly set up an encirclement.

"We must stick to our position with our blood and life until the reinforcements arrive." Montgomery continued.

No matter how much sacrifice it is, we must hold on. Only when a large number of American weapons and equipment are continuously transported, and only when our side has enough strength to face the German armored forces head-on can we turn to a counterattack.
