What Chen Dao saw was Major General Erwin Rommel, the former head of the headquarters of the headquarters, today's commander of the 7th Armored Division.

The troops of the 7th Armored Division should be sixty or seventy kilometers south of the city of Sulw. Rommel did not command his troops to continue to move south, so why did it appear in the city of Sulw?

Chen Dao was about to ask, but Rommel asked first: "Heinz, isn't the Herman Goering regiment the 19th Panzer Army under General Guderian? Why did you come here?"

Chen Dao had no choice but to talk about his trip to Norway before the outbreak of the Western Front Battle. Later, because a series of battles and the Western Front Battle was launched in advance, the ghost battle group he led was late and is now chasing the past of the main force of the group.

Rommel nodded after hearing Chen Dao's explanation, but he was even more confused. He thought that he wanted to chase the main force of the Herman Goring Regiment, which should be on the marching route of the 12th Army. How did he run to the 4th Army now? Was he lost?

"According to your itinerary, you should be sixty or seventy kilometers south of us at this time. Why did you appear here?" Chen Dao expressed his doubts.

Rommel replied: "My troops were advancing too fast. The 37th Reconnaissance Battalion of the vanguard and the logistics troops behind them set a distance of hundreds of kilometers. My 78th Artillery Regiment marched on the left wing of the Skeleton Division. They told me that the British had launched a large-scale attack here, so I came back with the 3rd Battalion of the 25th Armored Regiment to see if I needed help here."

Chen Dao's eyes flashed when he saw Rommel's speech, and his face showed a very cunning look from time to time. He thought that there must be something inside of Rommel's appearance here. Since he refused to say it, he wouldn't ask too much, it's rare to be confused.

Looking at Chen Dao and Colonel Simon standing aside, Rommel thought to himself that he had come back in time, otherwise the "police" forces like the Skeleton Division would definitely not be able to guarantee the safety of his logistics and artillery regiments, even if he added this ghost battle group of the Air Force.

This "Brother-in-law" actually named his troops the Ghost Battle Group. What kind of messy names is this? There are no need to use such loud names as "Emperor Frederick", "Master Moltke" or "Prince Eugen" battle groups. They have to be called "Ghost". Do he think this is writing a novel?

Neither the "ghost" led by his brother-in-law or the "skeleton" composed of the concentration camp thugs, it seems that I have to recall some troops overnight, and the subsequent battle will depend on our authentic army troops to fight.

As a landlord, Colonel Simon saw that Chen Dao and Rommel had finished reconciling, and asked Rommel, who had the highest military rank, “What should we do next?”

"Report the situation here to your division commander first, that......" Rommel didn't know who the division commander of the Skeleton Division was, and he was a little stuck for a while.

"Lt. General Theodore Ike," said Colonel Simon.

"First report the situation here to General Ike, and then ask him how large the enemy's attack is and how many troops are?" Rommel said.

"All the troops in the city of Syp are temporarily under my full command, and this church will be regarded as my temporary command. You will go back and organize your troops, and then report to me the number of personnel and weapons of your troops, so that I can formulate the next combat operation." As the German soldier with the highest rank in the city of Syp, Rommel took command from Colonel Simon without hesitation.

Colonel Simon knew that it was not the time to talk about military differences, so he did not object. Chen Dao had long been revered to Rommel, so he naturally had no objection.

After making an appointment with Colonel Rommel and Colonel Simon to reunite at the church at 9 o'clock, Chen Dao sat on the No. 1 of the Bandits to return to the municipal building of the Ghost Battle Group's temporary station in the east of Shrine City.

As soon as Chen Dao got off the car, Major Schumacher mysteriously came to Chen Dao. The two walked to a secluded place, and Major Schumacher whispered: "I only found out after I interrogated several British prisoners of war that they were our old friends."

"Do we have friends in the UK?" Chen Dao asked in confusion.

"They are from the Third British Infantry Division," said Major Schumacher.

"Ah......" Chen Dao sighed a long sigh, "It turned out to be Montgomery's troops, so it's really our old friend."

"What should we do?" Major Schumacher said.

"Since you are meeting old friends, of course you have to reminisce about the past. Ask the maintenance department to work hard tonight and carry out vehicle maintenance overnight, especially tanks and No. 4 assault guns. We will rely on them to reminisce about the past with our old friends tomorrow, so we will not be allowed to strike like the day before yesterday." Chen Dao said.

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Thinking of the strike that happened the day before yesterday, Chen Dao couldn't help but sigh that Colonel Simon was really a lucky person.

The ghost battle group set off from Germany, passed Luxembourg, and Belgium entered France. After a long journey of a week, the armored vehicles in the battle group finally couldn't stand the bumps of the journey and started a strike.

At two o'clock the day before yesterday, the vehicle strike reached its peak. In just one hour, four No. 4 G tanks and a No. 4 assault gun broke down. In addition to the various types of vehicles that broke down before, the number of vehicles that broke down had reached 17 vehicles in the Ghost Battle Group.

At the suggestion of Major Schumacher, Chen Dao ordered the ghost battle group to stop in a small town called Bisilexato, and the vehicles that broke down due to various faults were also dragged into the village for repair.

Not only those broken-down vehicles, Chen Dao also ordered all personnel to take action together to provide in-depth maintenance of the vehicles in the ghost battle group.

This in-depth maintenance took a whole day yesterday. Because he was in the heart of France, about ten kilometers west of the French army was an area controlled by the French army. Chen Dao carefully sent a reconnaissance platoon and also attracted reconnaissance aircraft from the aerial artillery regiment to conduct reconnaissance to avoid sudden attacks by the French army.

This morning, two FI-156 reconnaissance aircraft flew to the sky near Bisilsarto for reconnaissance early. Bisilsarto is located in the south of the city of Sulpu, with a distance of only ten kilometers. The two reconnaissance aircraft did not accidentally discover the British attack on the city of Sulpu.

After receiving the report from the reconnaissance plane, Chen Dao made a quick decision to lead the ghost battle group that had just rested for a day to rush to help Xupu City, which promptly relieved Colonel Simon's pressure.

After about an hour, Chen Dao arranged the station for the troops, and also counted the number of usable equipment and soldiers, he returned to the church with the latest organizational table to discuss the combat plan with Rommel and others.

"The order we received was to defend the city of Sephu and not to take a step back. If the British army north of Sephu will continue to attack eastward tomorrow, we will send troops to attack their right wing and prevent them from moving east with peace of mind." Rommel said to Chen Dao.

"How big is the scale of the British and French attacks this time?" Chen Dao asked.

"I don't know, we only know that the positions of the Skeleton Division in Su'an and Somerpita in the north of Shrine City were all broken by the coalition forces. The enemies in the Somerpita town area have gone the farthest and have already broken through three kilometers deep in our defense line." Colonel Simon said.

"I have a premonition that the scale of the coalition's offensive this time is far greater than what we have seen so far, and we need more troops." Rommel said, "Tonight, the 296th Anti-Armored Division's 7th Armored Division's 296th Anti-Armored Division, the 42nd Anti-Tank Battalion and the 2nd Battalion of the Sixth Motorized Infantry Regiment will arrive one after another. These troops are enough to defend Sep City, but they are somewhat insufficient for attack. Who can find more troops?"

At Rommel's inquiry, Colonel Simon shook his head in shame and said he was powerless.
