    "Your Majesty, after two consecutive days of operations by the Air Force and Navy, we have completely destroyed the airports in Italy. During these two days, a total of more than 800 Luftwaffe fighters and bombers were destroyed, and the Imperial Air Force and Navy lost battles and  Bombed more than 300 aircraft! At present, the Imperial Air Force and Naval Air Force have completely mastered the air superiority over Italy!" Air Force Minister Marshal Long Feiyu reported to the Imperial Emperor Wang Yuze!

    "Very good! Next, we must maintain air strikes against Italy to avoid the possibility of the Italians repairing the airport and the German Air Force re-stationing!" Wang Yuze said!  The Imperial Air Force and Naval Air Force exerted their strength, causing heavy losses to the Luftwaffe and forcing the Luftwaffe to withdraw from Italy. This was undoubtedly a major victory!  In addition to the ongoing air war in Western Europe, the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation are competing with the German Naval Aviation for air supremacy over the English Channel and the British Isles. The air supremacy over the central Mediterranean has completely fallen into the control of the Chinese Air Force and Naval Aviation!  If the German Air Force wants to regain air supremacy, it may have to pay a heavier price!

    "Yes, Your Majesty! The Imperial Air Force will continue to attack Italy next! In addition, the Imperial Air Force also plans to attack airports in southern France and Spain to completely control the air superiority around the Mediterranean!" Marshal Long Feiyu said!

    "The Air Force will execute it according to the plan! However, the plan to carry out strategic strikes on targets in Germany cannot be delayed!" Wang Yuze warned!  Only by destroying Germany's domestic industrial facilities can Germany's industrial strength be weakened as much as possible, thereby hitting Germany!

    "Yes. Your Majesty! The Imperial Air Force's long-range fighter wing is deploying to the Mediterranean! It is expected that preparations will be completed in another week! By then, the Imperial Air Force will launch strategic bombing in Germany!" Marshal Long Feiyu said!  Wang Yuze has long said that the functions of the Imperial Air Force will change, and tactical tasks will be transferred to the Army Aviation and Naval Aviation.  The Air Force prioritizes the development of strategic strike force!  Previously, due to the need to compete for air supremacy, the Chinese Air Force gave priority to deploying fighter jets to the Mediterranean region!  Now that air supremacy in the central Mediterranean has been won, the Air Force will speed up the deployment of long-range bombers to the Mediterranean!

    "Your Majesty! The victory of the Imperial Air Force and Naval Aviation this time has greatly boosted the morale of the people of the Empire! The Germans rely on despicable sneak attack methods. They are completely unworthy! Once they fight the Empire head-on, they will definitely lose!  " said Marshal Jiang Xingguo, Minister of National Defense!  The Imperial Air Force and Naval Aviation were attacked by the Luftwaffe, which caused an uproar in the country!  Although the people of the empire hate Germany's despicable behavior, many people are worried that the empire will lose this war!  Now the Imperial Air Force and Naval Aviation took only two days to seize air supremacy over the Mediterranean. This undoubtedly made the people of the Empire feel the power of the Empire and strengthened their confidence!

    "Haha! The war is about a country's comprehensive national strength. It cannot be changed by one or two successful tactical actions!" Wang Yuze said with a laugh!  Modern war is all about national strength, from industrial strength to technological strength, to human resources, etc. It is very difficult to win a large-scale war just by relying on the commander's successful tactics like ancient wars.  !  Wang Yuze clearly remembered that it was in another time and space.  The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States and achieved a brilliant victory in the early days of the Pacific War!  But once the powerful industrial strength of the United States explodes, won't the Japanese be dragged to death?  The Japanese Navy sank an aircraft carrier of the U.S. Navy, and the U.S. Navy could quickly get two aircraft carriers to supplement it.  And if the U.S. Navy sank an aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy, it would be difficult for the Japanese Navy to supplement it!  Under the circumstances of this ebb and flow, it would be surprising if the Japanese Navy did not lose!  The current war between China and Germany is somewhat similar!  China is already significantly ahead of Germany in terms of industrial strength and technological strength. In terms of human resources and the like, there is no comparison between the two countries!  Germany wanted to turn the tide of the war with one or two tactical victories.  This is completely unrealistic!

    "Your Majesty! The Mediterranean Theater requests approval of their next combat plan! They require a landing operation in Italy and a complete solution to Italy! Italy has an important geographical location and poses a serious threat to the empire's various islands in the Mediterranean! Only a complete solution  Only after reaching Italy can the empire launch an attack on Germany with all its strength!" said Marshal Cai Yun, Chief of the General Staff!

    "Yes! Approve their combat plan! However, the Italians are also frantically expanding their army, and they have been conducting military cooperation with Germany, which has attracted German weapons, equipment and instructors. It may not be so easy to defeat Italy this time  !" Wang Yuze said with some worry.?!  After all, with Italy's population and industrial strength, arming an army of three million people is not a big problem!  If Italy is forced into a hurry, maybe they will have more armed armies!  Italy now has a total population of 35 million people. If all the people are armed, arming an army of 5 million people will not be a big problem!  In addition, the current King of Italy, Vittorio Emanuele III, and Prime Minister Mussolini are both crazy guys. Wang Yuze had to prepare for the worst!

    "Your Majesty! The main force of the 20th Army will land in Italy! Now the Italian Army only has about 1.3 million people! Although it is growing by 300,000 people every month, their combat effectiveness is not strong! With the 20th Army  With the strength of the group army, it is not difficult to defeat them! In addition, the General Staff plans to send some of the Japanese mercenaries and Korean mercenaries that have been formed to the Italian battlefield! Reinforce the 20th Group Army!" Marshal Cai Yun, Chief of the General Staff  Said!  As two vassal states of China, although Japan and North Korea have not joined the Eastern Alliance, they have always followed China's footsteps!  After China ordered to expand its military and prepare for war, both countries responded immediately!  In the last world war, both Japan and North Korea suffered heavy losses.  But at the same time, those mercenaries gained a lot of wealth, which also made young people in the two countries crazy!  Most people are looking forward to the outbreak of the next war so that they can join mercenaries to fight.  By the time the Eastern Alliance officially declared war on the Holy Alliance, Japanese mercenaries had already armed forty divisions, and North Korean mercenaries had also armed twenty divisions. These troops will obey China's call at any time!

    "It's completely feasible! There should be no problem in letting the Japanese and Koreans deal with the Italians!" Wang Yuze said!  In order to avoid the possibility of master-eating, China's supervision of Japan and North Korea is very strict. Even the mercenaries formed lack heavy weapons.  However, their fighting will is very strong!  When an equal number of Japanese mercenaries face the Italian Army, even if the Italian Army's equipment is much more advanced, the Japanese mercenaries will definitely win in the end!

    The battlefield at the moment is mainly concentrated in Europe!  The armies of both sides are mobilizing and transferring to the front line, and large quantities of war supplies are also being transported to the front line!  A large-scale decisive battle on land will not break out until preparations are made!  Therefore, the most intense battlefield is the Mediterranean theater!  In addition, the Chinese Navy's First Fleet and Marine Corps have also begun planning to launch attacks on Germany's colonies in the Pacific, completely removing the nails deployed by Germany in the Pacific to ensure the safety of the empire's maritime transportation lines!

    The Mediterranean Theater, after receiving the telegram from the General Staff Headquarters, immediately took action!  The main force of the 20th Army of the Imperial Army began to embark from Corsica, Sardinia and Sicily!  The 8th Marine Division will be responsible for the landing operations!  The 33rd Task Force of the Navy's Third Fleet will provide artillery support for the landing force!  The two aircraft carriers of the 32nd Task Force of the Navy's Third Fleet will provide air cover for the troops!  In addition, a fighter wing, a dive bomber wing and an attack wing of the Army Aviation Corps will also all participate in this operation!

    "Commander, according to the latest intelligence we have received, there are more than 500,000 troops gathered around Rome, Son of Italy! There are also more than 200,000 troops in Taranto! If we want to land in these two places, I'm afraid  There are some difficulties!" said Lieutenant General Shi Deyou, chief of staff of the 20th Group Army!  The last time Italy was quickly defeated because Rome was attacked by the Chinese army, this time the Italian Army has obviously learned from the experience of the last failure!

    "Well! Originally Taranto was a good choice! However, the bad traffic in southern Italy will make it difficult for our armored and mechanized troops to perform!" General Wang Qiuyan, commander of the 20th Group Army, frowned  Said!  Although Taranto was ceded to China, in order to deal with the threat from China, the Italian government not only did not build the southern road, but secretly destroyed the infrastructure in the southern region!  This makes the role of Taranto obtained by China reduced a lot!

    "Since Rome can't do it, Taranto can't do it either! Then just land in Naples! Naples is also an excellent port! It's only two hundred kilometers away from Rome! And the Italian Army's defense is not strong, so landing should not be difficult.  Big!" Admiral Wu Zhiyuan, commander of the Navy's Third Fleet, interjected.

    "Naples? This is a good landing point! Then, land in Naples!" Lieutenant General Wang Qiuyan looked at the map and nodded heavily!
