After the German army seized these artillery, the horse adjusted the order... They didn't even need to change the direction of the gun mouth. They just needed to adjust the bullet point closer, and then rows of shells fell to the British positions.

The British army was in chaos for a while, and the vanguards of more than 100,000 people immediately lost coordination with each other... The fact is not that they each made their own formations, but that they were busy escaping their lives.

Especially the British First Armored Division, which has always been regarded as pride by the British, suffered heavy losses... This is because the Germans believed that "the opponent of tanks is a tank", so they focused their attacks on the British tank troops.

In the eyes of the Germans, as long as the enemy's armored troops were destroyed as soon as possible, the enemy's infantry would be left to be massacred.

The facts proved that this idea was very correct. Before the British First Armored Division could react, it suffered heavy casualties. More than 300 tanks were destroyed and injured by German tanks pounced on the flanks. Some of them were captured by the German army intact... Next, the British army could only flee in front of the tracks of the German tanks.

At this time, Montgomery had just woken up and ran around the command center for a morning run.

This is his usual style. He believes that as a qualified commander, he must arrange every part of the time reasonably and maintain strong energy and physical strength.

Objectively speaking, this idea is very suitable for being a white-collar worker in a company, but it is not applicable to battlefields where changes or even huge changes will occur at any time... Zhang Chi even believes that commanding in the rear cannot be accurate, grasping battlefield information in a timely manner and always keeping close to the front line. Montgomery is not only in the rear, but also in the rear when it is time to sleep.

Such a result is often when the news reaches Montgomery, who is the commander, the best reaction time is often lost.

As now, the communications soldier panickedly chased Montgomery from behind, reporting as he ran: "General, we are attacked by the enemy?"

"Enemy's attack?" Montgomery did not take the news seriously. He didn't even stop running: "It's Italian! There is no need to panic..."

"No, general!" the correspondents replied: "It's the German, the German Gorene Armored Division, and the 15th Mechanized Infantry Division!"

"What?" Montgomery stopped in shock, and was stunned for a while before saying: "This is impossible! They should be in Palermo!"

"No, general!" said the correspondent: "They were in Catania and sneaked into our army, and the Eighth Army was almost collapsed!"

Montgomery turned pale when he heard this. He quickly rushed back to the command center and asked the already chaotic staff officer: "What's the situation?"

But no one answered him, because they didn't know what was going on... The front line troops had fled everywhere during the German offensive, and they didn't even have time to report to the command.

The reason why they knew that the Eighth Army was attacked by the German army was entirely because the Air Force pilots saw everything in the sky.

"Where did they come out?" Montgomery looked at the map and said angrily: "Why was there no news before this?! The direction of Palermo... the two German divisions were withdrawn, and they didn't know?"

If Montgomery was smart enough, he would have guessed that Zhang Chi intentionally "don't know".
