Romanian Eagle - Chapter 745

Now the smoke of gunpowder on the Greek land has gradually dissipated, and even if it still exists, it is just that some unwilling people are taking up arms against Romania’s rule.

Since some of these people are surrendered by troops, 8 of the 20 newly formed divisions in Romania have been mobilized to surrender them. By the way, their officers and soldiers can gain experience in this kind of low-intensity combat.

Since the city of Athens fell into the hands of Romania, it has plunged into a strange prosperity. At present, all industries in Athens are extremely prosperous, but the most conspicuous are the service industries and shipyards, both of which are leaders in their industries.

The former brought together the warblers from all over Greece, and the latter also brought many boatmen over to ask for a living. At present, there are nearly two hundred thousand Romanian troops in Athens, navy, land and air forces, and the large number of troops makes Athens almost a large barracks.

This made the newly established Greek Provisional Government very busy. They were deeply afraid that these Romanian soldiers would go crazy, so that the people of Athens would deepen their dissatisfaction with it and make it difficult for the government to do it.

Fortunately, these officers and soldiers from Romania are very restrained in behavior, and generally only go to drink and chat or relax in the fireworks. The Romanian military also attaches great importance to this, and in many areas where officers and soldiers go, military police are sent on duty to restrain military discipline.

In addition to many fighting and disturbances, the Romanian officers and soldiers were all good to talk. Of course, for those who are unconscious in fighting and making trouble, sending them to the confinement room for a few days is an inevitable choice.

And so many Romanian troops gathered in Athens, naturally, they did not come here to relax and drink. In fact, they are also doing pre-war preparations, and then they need to fight for Crete.

That’s right, after taking the mainland of Greece, the Romanian side began to prepare for the fight against Crete. Because all of this is in a hurry, when the British and French naval forces, Germany and Italy, are constrained to allow Romanian military forces to appear in the Middle East, or more precisely, in Suez.

Romania knows the importance of Suez very well. As early as the early 1930s, the Romanian military had planned an attack on Suez, but the Romanian navy was not enough at that time and it was just a game.

After the Luobao merger, Romania paid more attention to Suez. After Romania gets northern Greece, this has become a viable plan.

Of course, no matter in which plan, Greece is an inescapable role. In addition, with the increase in Romania’s military strength, Greece gradually changed from a need to win to a need to seize.

Under the guidance of such a policy, Romania’s military actions can also be understood.

Of course, the Romanian army did not stop after occupying Greece. Taking advantage of the short preparation time, the Cyclades Islands captured by the navy are preparing for the capture of Crete.

The busiest period during this period is the navy and air force. One of them needs to **** the army officers and soldiers to land, and the other needs to seize air supremacy with the British fighter planes flying from Crete.

But all the busyness is worth it. Within half a month, the Cyclades Islands were basically captured by Romania. Romania’s ability to seize the Cyclades Islands so quickly has a lot to do with the low morale of the islands’ receipts. Moreover, the Romanian army’s aggressive posture made many Greek defenders lose their confidence.

That’s why Romania can quickly conquer the islands. After all, this is different from the previous capture of the North Aegean islands, but it took a long time to prepare.

The occupation of the Cyclades Islands was completed while preparing to land on Crete. Many materials were prepared for Crete, so the preparations this time were the most hasty. Fortunately, the morale of the defenders is not high, and Greece is spending more energy on strengthening the defense of Crete.

The mission of the Cyclades is more to buy time for Crete.

At this time, it was clear that Romania did not want to give it, so after capturing the islands, Romania immediately prepared for an attack on Crete.

If you want to seize the island, you must give priority to ensuring sea power, so as the first hand, the Romanian First Fleet is ready in the port of Athens.

This time the first fleet consists of Vlad, Mircea, and Borkas, three battleships, two aircraft carriers Barker and Gilescu, and more than ten light cruisers and destroyers. composition.

They will ensure that Romania firmly holds the sea rights in the Aegean Sea. Direct them. Will be the outstanding Lieutenant General Midraphael.

This warship, which occupies nearly four cities in the Romanian navy’s strength, will naturally need someone to send it off. As the commander-in-chief of the navy, Admiral Nestaco sent them at the port.

“Midraphael, I won’t say anything this time. You should know the importance of this mission to the Navy’s next plans.”

Although the tone of General Nestacu is not heavy, the meaning in the words is quite far-reaching. As a lieutenant general, Midraphael is hard to hear. Of course, he also knows that this is not the minister and commander-in-chief who are harsh on him. That is to have greater expectations of oneself and put pressure on oneself.

“Don’t worry, Commander Commander, this time I must be fully responsible for the mission to ensure the smooth implementation of the landing plan.”

Midraffair’s words made the admiral smile, he patted the lieutenant’s shoulder and said. “Well, I wish you a smooth journey this time, let’s go.”

After bidding farewell to Admiral Nestacu, Midrafel boarded the flagship Mircea. He had a soft spot for this warship because he was the first captain of the Mircea.

After greeting Captain Costi, Midrafell gave the first order. “Order the fleet to set off and we will go to Thira.”

“It’s ~www.mtlnovel.com~Your Excellency Commander.”

Thira is the closest island to Crete in the Cyclades. The island is only 193 kilometers away from Heraklion, Crete. It was captured by a Romanian infantry regiment a week ago, the airstrip was built three days ago, and it was stationed in the Navy’s Third Shore-based Fighter Group one day ago.

And today, Midrafell passed by with his fleet. This shows that Romania is currently in an urgent mood and will not give the Greek defenders any opportunity to prepare. Because sea power is in our hands, we can strike at it as we can.

For the attack on Crete, Romania has been fully prepared. Naturally, I will not forget to lift the possible support of Crete.

For this reason, another fleet commanded by Major General Fernandez is also performing the mission to Crete, but they are performing a blockade mission. For this reason, all three Bormiku-class aircraft carriers are in the hands of Fernandez, and the other two battleships Kurmis and Tinic are among them.

Major General Fernandez’s fleet, which currently has sea and air superiority, has entered the Mediterranean. They are in the southern waters of Crete, blocking possible support from Egypt.
