"Have our submarine fleet and fleet arrived?"

Commander Gothard Heinrich asked indifferently at Schulder, the commander of the 15th Armored Grenadier Division.

When the president said this, he was surrounded by a large group of guards armed to the teeth.

It is also equipped with several T-54 tanks to guard the nearby area to protect their safety.

"It should be coming soon. I just communicated with the Navy Command!"

Commander Schulder replied.

"How are our troops evacuating now? How many people have not been evacuated!"

Commander Heinrich continued to ask.

"There are already evacuated, and only my two grenade regiments and an armored battalion are left!"

The division commander Schulder glanced at the troops resting in the distance and replied honestly.

"That's good! We must evacuate all our troops and all our weapons and equipment as soon as possible! Because this is the order of the head of state! Moreover, the actions of Britain and the United States are very strange now. They not only evacuated all the ships and troops that were preparing to land on the battlefield."

"And it has been a few days, and they have not even made any noise! ​​I believe they should be planning some major combat operation! If we cannot withdraw all our troops in these few days, there may be a very tragic battle to fight! Maybe we will suffer heavy casualties by then!"

Commander Heinrich breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and explained.

"I think so too! What a pity. We still have a lot of new weapons and equipment, and we have not yet conducted actual combat! And those Type БМ-21 rocket launchers are not satisfied with the killing!"

The commander Shuld said in a regretful tone.

"Don't worry! There are so many wars to fight! And the head of state has gathered all the elite troops of the armed SS in Sicily, and we are now being dispatched to Sicily, preparing to change equipment and special training there."

"Because the Head of State wants to fight a big battle with Britain and the United States in Sicily, you can fight as much as you like! It's better than fighting the British and American troops on such a small island, because maybe we can ruin all our assets here! Don't forget that the British and American naval and air forces are much more than me, and their replenishment speed is much faster than ours!"

Looking at the commander Schulder who was reluctant to leave, Commander Heinrich smiled bitterly.

"Well! Don't worry, I agree with what you said. I just felt a little bit of emotion!"

The commander Shuld smiled slightly.

"By the way, have the cheetah self-propelled anti-aircraft guns handed over to us all arrived at the SS's combat command in Sicily?"

Commander Heinrich suddenly remembered with some concern.

"Yes! General Helbert Giller of the Fifth "Viking" Armored Division of the SS, he personally supervised and accepted it!"

The commander Shuld nodded and agreed with affirmation.

"That's good! These new weapons and equipment must not be obtained by Britain and the United States! Their power is really powerful. If they get it, it will be very troublesome and unfavorable to our future combat!"

Commander Heinrich said seriously.

"I think so too, but I believe that General Helbert Giller, of the Fifth "Viking" Armored Division of the SS, will definitely protect these new cheetah self-propelled anti-aircraft guns! Because the head of state will arrive in Sicily for a few hours and personally supervise all the troops stationed in Sicily for special training! In order to prepare for the future battle of Sicily, it will severely damage the British and American allies!"

The commander Shuld said happily.

"The Battle of Sicily! I'm looking forward to it too! It's really unknown how many British and American allies we can defeat in this battle!"

Commander Heinrich suddenly looked up at the sky full of white clouds, felt the cool feeling of the gentle breeze rushing towards him, and said with a smile.

"Our submarine force and transport fleet are here! Everyone is ready to board the transport fleet and leave here immediately under the escort of the submarine group!"

And at this moment, an officer who was responsible for waiting for the arrival of the German U-type submarine shouted loudly.

As he shouted, Commander Heinrich and his division commander Schulder quickly commanded the remaining German troops; landed on the transport fleet, preparing to evacuate Pantelleria Island.

"Hey! By the way, Commander Heinrich! So, should we take them away with the Italian troops on the island?"

When the last batch of German soldiers landed on the transport fleet safely, the division commander Schulder suddenly remembered.

"No! Those cowardly Italian troops will not have any trouble! Because once the British and American troops conduct a large-scale counterattack against sea, land and air, they may have surrendered in full before the battle starts! So we don't have to worry about them at all! They are smarter than us!"

Commander Heinrich immediately shook his head and said without thinking.

"Commander, you're right. I almost forgot their character without fighting will! Alas! They really lost all the face of the Romans!"

Upon hearing this, the commander Shuld also smiled bitterly and shook his head and agreed.

Then, under the protection of several German troops holding submachine guns, the two of them boarded the transport ship as the last evacuators.

He left Pantelleria Island by boat with the soldiers of the 15th Division who were happily chatting on the boat.

As their transport teams moved further away from Pantelleria Island, a fierce local war on the Eastern Front was in full swing.

General Rotmistrov, the Soviet general, was leading a group of 150 T-34 tanks, using a wedge-shaped tactical attack method to rush towards the German position ten thousand meters away.

At the same time, more than 100 T-34 tank groups were used as reserve teams, waiting for combat orders behind the Soviet positions.

When the Soviet tank group and the grenadiers were moving forward carefully, there were also many Black Panther tanks, Tiger tanks, and Ferdinand tank destroyers hidden in the nearby woods.

They are taking on the role of hunters, waiting for their prey to come the Soviet tank troops.

In addition to these tanks, the German army also deployed 20 powerful 88mm artillery guns.

"All tank gunners, give me their place; at 3 o'clock, high-explosive bombs, fire!"

However, before the Soviet troops reached the German ambush position, their commanders took the lead in issuing orders to fire artillery.

With his shelling order issued, from the gun mouths of various Soviet tanks, the sound of cannons that were comparable to thunder were instantly mixed with flashes of flames and ejected out.

"Oh no! The Soviet army will attack first! Everyone should take their place, at 5 o'clock, armor-piercing bullets, 250 yards, fire a counterattack!"
