Visconti, of course, is not a fantasy. During his garrison in Albania, he had already figured out the strength of his opponent's enemy.

Opposite his attack, there was only one of the 8th Infantry Division commanded by Major General Casimiteros. The West Macedonian Cluster (division level) and the Bandus Regiment were responsible for the support and flanking cover tasks. The total force was only 30,000, and it lacked heavy weapons such as tanks and howitzers. As for the air force, it was basically a decoration.

It can be said that in his eyes, fighting Greece is effortless, and this is a good opportunity to accumulate military achievements and prestige.

Moreover, although he patted his chest and said that relying on his own army alone would be enough, there would definitely be some reinforcements in Italy. If he couldn't win this way, he would be boring and just retired.

Visconti was very confident. Just after Mussolini made the decision, he looked even more excited. He just waited for the end of this war to let this old guy get out and be the chief of staff by himself!

But at this moment, the German urgent telegram arrived.

Mussolini's face still had a complacent smile. He opened the telegram and saw the content on it. His smile immediately frozen.

"Party leader, what did the Germans say?" asked Mussolini's son-in-law Ziano.

Mussolini's hands tore the telegram into strips and said quietly: "It's nothing. The Germans have expressed great support to us. I wish our actions towards Greece will be extremely smooth."

Although he had no feelings for his words, everyone knew that the true content of the telegram was definitely not like this.

Mussolini was angry at this time. This Cialique is really big or small. When I was in the revolution, you were playing with cement! Now, you dare to curse me!

There were only a few words on the telegram. Italy stopped its military operations against Greece, otherwise it would be completely defeated under the counterattack of Greece!

"If the Italians launch a military attack on Greece, they will definitely fail." After receiving the news in Wolf's Knot, Cialek immediately made a judgment.

This Mussolini is really going to cause trouble! The Italian army has a good pound, and Cialis is quite clear. Cialis knows that if Italy attacks Greece, there will be no good fruit.

"So, do we want to remind the Italians?" asked Marshal Keitel.

"Reminder, send a telegram to remind Italians immediately, but our reminder may be invalid." Cialek said.

It is almost the same when we remind Mussolini not to attack Greece. What will Mussolini react? It’s almost the same when he is angry and embarrassed. This self-righteous old guy! It’s almost the same when he really needs someone to lead Italy!

"Greece leans against the Aegean Sea and is close to Turkey. If it occupy Greece, Italy will definitely continue to covet Türkiye, which will further stimulate the Soviets." Cialek said: "Mussolini took a step."

Now, Germany and the Soviet Union have just come out of the brink of war, and Cirick doesn't want any accidents to happen again. Unfortunately, the Italians are causing trouble again.

In history, Hitler respected this revolutionary elder brother quite well. When Italy failed in Greece, Mussolini asked Germany for help. As a result, Hitler immediately rushed to attack Greece.

This fight delayed the plan to attack the Soviet Union for more than a month. If it weren't for this delay, the Germans might have really been able to fight to Moscow and spend the winter in Moscow.

Hitler respected Mussolini, but Cialis had no good feelings for Mussolini, so he had the intention of finding someone to replace him.

"Tell the Italians that if they fight with the Greeks, and when the Greeks are chasing them, don't come to us for help!" Cialek continued to say angrily.

Germany will not find this place for Italy, and Germany has more important things.

Some tenacious enemies must be resolved through war, such as Britain, France, the Soviet Union and the United States. However, some enemies can defeat others without fighting. When Germany defeats the Soviet Union, will the remaining European countries have to enter Germany's arms?

Greece doesn't need to fight at all, and it will take the initiative to defect to Germany in the future. Now Italy is just looking for a draw type.

Cirik's judgment made the Italians unhappy, and Cirik's warning afterward made Mussolini even more angry. Isn't this looking down on Italy?

"Party leader, if you want to attack Greece with all your might, I suggest we can draw some troops from North Africa. Those troops fought with the Germans for a while and were the most combat-effective." Seeing Mussolini's statement, Marshal Bardoglio finally made a compromise suggestion.

He was unwilling to fight because he knew deeply the combat effectiveness of the Italian army and what kind of people under Visconti were. He knew that the only combat effectiveness of the Italian army was the North African army.

These armies were under the command of the Germans, and Germany even arranged some German instructors in the army, which strictly enforced discipline, trained skills, and had barely passed the combat effectiveness. These armies followed the Germans to fight to the Middle East.

Unfortunately, Marshal Bardoglio still miscalculated. He didn't know that what the party leader was most annoying about now was mentioning the Germans. If he left the Germans, he seemed to be unable to do anything.

Drawing from the North African Legion? Of course not! Those armies went with Germany, and Germany ate meat, and Italy had to drink soup. If the army retreated, the Germans would definitely not give anything to Italy.

"No need to draw from North Africa, I think we can draw from our local area. Yes, we will drive the Marine Battle Brigade and the 3rd Alpine Land Division to fight this battle!" Mussolini said: "Restoring the glory of our former ancient Rome is a mission entrusted to us by history!"

Marshal Bardoglio wanted to say something. Mussolini had already stood up and looked at the sun outside the window. Mussolini murmured: "God bless us, let us reappear the glory of ancient Rome!"

Let the Germans see that the Italian army is not that weak!

With Mussolini's decision, a huge military operation kicked off. They only had half a month to prepare. They needed to transport a large amount of supplies and they needed to prepare before the war.

Fortunately, all this was hidden from the Greeks. The Greeks were not afraid of heaven and earth. Italy threatened war, but they were still the same as before.
