My Italian Chapter 668

Sousse was captured, which meant that Tunisia was indeed the most important city, and the city of Tunisia would face the attack of the Italian army.

This also made the attitudes of many Tunisian tribes change faster, and the French side naturally didn't want to see it.

"Chief Abhim, you can't treat me like this."

In Kasselin on the Hatay River in central Tunisia, Bekas was dragged out by several Haji tribe fighters.

And Chief Abxin, who was called out by his mouth, was watching him accompanied by everyone. At this time, Bekas was not there, and now he was disheveled, not to mention, even his face was swollen and purple, and there was still blood at the corner of his mouth. He didn't look like a French liaison officer at all.

"Chief Abxin, for the sake of our friendship for so many years, please let me go."

At this time, Bekas knew what he was going to face, so he didn't want to be proud of his last life.

Facing Bekas' pleading, Chief Abhim showed a sneer. "If you still consider me a friend for the sake of our friendship for many years, then you shouldn't rebel in my tribe. Our Haji tribe welcomes you back at any time. As long as you can defeat the Italians, we will still obey you. But since you are rebelling in my tribe, you don't regard me as a friend but as an enemy. For the enemy, God tells us to retaliate with an eye for an eye. Take him down and carry out stoning.”

Stone punishment is a punishment for adultery in the Arab world, and Beqas was executed by stoning. It was also because the chief Abhim caused a rebellion in his tribe and let him die in disgrace. It was an expression of dissatisfaction with France. .

Under the order of Chief Abhim, the soldiers ignored the wailing of the former distinguished guest, Mr. Bekas, and dragged him directly to the square. This place is already full of watching people. People who lost their families or property in the rebellion are looking at the French like dead dogs with hatred.

After putting it into the pit, two soldiers grabbed his hands and began to bury him until his neck. At this time, only Bekas' head was exposed.

After arranging the French "friend", Chief Abhim delivered an impassioned speech, and then the exciting execution began.

The firing squad consisted of victims who had lost their families. These people held a stone weighing more than one catty in their hands and threw it five meters away.

piece!

Two!

Stones were constantly thrown at Bekas, and his head was smashed and bleeding, and the wailing gradually subsided as time went by. But the execution did not stop. After everyone finished executing, the target of the execution was covered by stones.

Frenchmen like Beqas in contact with indigenous tribes are numerous in Tunisia. Faced with the attitude change of the indigenous tribes seeing that the situation is not good, they have some success in preventing the attitude change of the tribes. But these are very few, and most of them ran back in despair, and there were quite a few who failed like Bekas.

However, no matter how the Tunisians continue to choose sides between Italy and France, in fact, the battle to determine the ownership of Tunisia has nothing to do with them.

In Tunisia, Lieutenant General Achino, the commander of the French army, was also worried about the situation in Tunisia, more precisely, he was worried about the gains and losses of the city of Tunisia.

"Mosley, is there another telegram for you to deliver in person?"

"It's a telegram from Hammamet."

Facing Commander Aquino's questioning, Mosley, the chief of staff, gave the answer.

Hearing that it was a telegram from Hammamet, Lieutenant General Aquino sat down after standing up. "Is it a telegram of defeat?"

Mosley nodded.

"Damn it, I knew these Tunisians were unreliable. These people would break like eggs. We must find a way to let these Tunisians know the consequences of not fighting well."

At this time, after hearing the news, Aquino finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Commander, what are you going to do?"

As the chief of staff, Mosley certainly knew that these Tunisians were unreliable. There have been countless examples in the previous battles. As for how to enhance the Tunisians' desire to fight, the two also thought of countless ways, but they were not easy to arrange for various reasons. Now that Commander Aquino had an idea, it naturally attracted Major General Mosley's inquiry.

"There is only one way, and that is to dismantle the 35th Division into a supervisory team and go to the battlefield to enforce military law."

The 35th Division that Aquino said was the only French infantry division in his hands, and it was also the role of the Tunisian Army. At this time, Achino, who was desperate for the colonial army, decided to dismantle it and serve as a supervising team for each army.

As the chief of staff, Mosley did not show a happy expression after hearing what Commander Aquino said, but asked instead. "Your Excellency, have you decided?"

Of course Achino understands what the chief of staff said. This refers to the danger brought by the dismantling of the 35th Division. You must know that the mission of this division is to deter other colonial divisions, and it is too risky to dismantle it at this time when the war is about to start.

"I've thought about it. Instead of holding the 35th Division in my hands as a reserve team, it's better to let it out to supervise the battle. At least with the supervisor team, these indigenous people must work hard for their lives to prevent our Tunisian army from losing too ugly. "

Achino said this with bitterness. Can their Tunisian Army compare with the Italian Eighth Army?

In terms of personnel, weapons, materials, intelligence, etc., they are far behind the Crown Prince's army on the opposite side. This battle is destined to be a defeat, but how to lose is learned. There is a big difference between being defeated by one touch and being defeated by fighting hard, which is enough to make the treatment of the two of them very different.

"This method is our only option at present."

After Chief of Staff Mosley thought for a while, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com admitted that what Commander Aquino said was the only way at present.

When the French army was adjusting its deployment in Tunisia, Lieutenant General Grieri, the commander of the 13th Army who had just captured Hammamet, received a telegram from the Army Group Command at his temporary headquarters.

After reading the telegram, Lieutenant General Grieri immediately issued an order.

"Order immediately, and now arrange the next battle plan. The 15th Division will attack Gulan Baliya, the 36th Division will attack Beni Kharad, and the 29th Division will support other troops in the center."

"As ordered."

After the communications staff answered aloud, he was immediately ready to convey the order.

After the communications staff left, Lieutenant General Grieri picked up the telegram and watched it again. The above telegram was jointly issued by the Crown Prince and Lieutenant General Brazo, the deputy commander. The higher authorities asked him to start fighting on the outskirts of Tunisia immediately after capturing Hammamet.

As for why they were in such a hurry, the telegram did not say. However, as a soldier who has served for half his life, the orders of his superiors must be carried out, especially this kind of thoughtless orders, which must be carried out without compromise.

As for why, it is obvious that such a mindless order, not telling you the details, is because you are not qualified enough, which also represents the importance of the task.

As for what is the situation that makes the crown prince's army speed up?

That's right, it is more important than the Tunisian battle. The Nice-Corsica battle is about to start.

When the battle starts, the importance of the Tunisian campaign will decrease a lot. At that time, even if the crown prince is in charge, the importance of the Eighth Army will plummet.

Therefore, it is a wise choice for the Eighth Army to start the battle of Tunis City as soon as possible.
