Chapter 955: Italian Army's Clever Trick

The sudden offensive launched by Britain-France-Australia had a surprisingly effective outcome.

Although the Germans had long been prepared for a counterattack by the British and French, they did not expect it to be so fierce, overwhelming the German defenders right from the start.

Moreover, due to the massive air and sea fire support provided by the British, French, and Australians, within just two days, the allied forces had quickly broken through all the small towns in Southern Tunisia, pushing the front lines to the outskirts of Tunis.

At this point, the German Army was powerless regarding the situation in North Africa.

Since the German government was preparing for an attack on Stalingrad, this campaign required between 2 million and 3 million German soldiers.
