"General, the port is lost. Troops of the Third Reich had captured the port."Major General William's panicked report
"Bastard, how can you throw away the port? Send someone to retake the port! Lieutenant General Philip gritted his teeth and ordered.
He knew very well that once the port fell into the hands of the Third Reich, troops from the Third Reich would be able to come ashore in a steady stream.
"General, we have three infantry divisions defeated. Several other infantry divisions also have weak fighting will. The Third Reich's bombings and naval gun attacks have never stopped, and we are simply unable to form a powerful counterattack!"Major General William said in frustration.
"hateful! In this case, blow up the port! No matter what, we cannot let the port fall into the hands of the Third Reich!"Lieutenant General Philip ordered fiercely.
In this case, it may be possible to slow down the speed of the Third Reich's troops boarding the ship.
"General, there is no way we can blow up the port. The engineers had previously proposed planting explosives at the port, but you rejected it as too troublesome. Claiming that New Rodney would not be attacked by the Third Reich."Major General William said in a low voice.
Lieutenant General Philip was stunned. He did not expect that he had given such an order.
But he knew that this time it was completely over. New Rodney must not be able to hold on.
"Send a telegram to Army Group Headquarters immediately, we need reinforcements. Otherwise, we are doomed! Lieutenant General Philip ordered.
Under such circumstances, asking for help from superior troops seems to have become the only way.
"Yes, General!"Major General William nodded repeatedly.
Later, Lieutenant General Philip asked for help from the 3rd Army Headquarters and ordered his headquarters to evacuate New Rodney and retreat to a safe place. He was very worried that once the Third Reich If the main force launched an attack after landing ashore, their troops would not be able to resist it.

General Luger, commander of the 1st Regiment Army, immediately moved his troops to the shore.
When the heavy equipment of the 1st Army Division came ashore, Ke General Lugar issued the order to attack.
Subsequently, the 1st Infantry Division Infantry Regiment, with the assistance of the division's tank battalion, began to attack New Rodney City. The subsequent troops were also regiment-by-regiment They were thrown into the battlefield.
The 12th Army of the Imperial Army where the sun never sets only had 6 infantry divisions, each with more than 13,000 people.
Facing the fierce attack of the Third Reich's army, they simply could not withstand it.
In the sky, fighter planes roared, and bombs fell like raindrops, causing heavy losses to the Never Sets Imperial Army.
A large number of BF-109 fighter jets fired at the Never Sets Imperial Army with aviation machine guns, causing countless Imperial Army soldiers to be killed. Killed.
The navy's naval guns also continued to fire at the Imperial Army's second-line positions. The large-caliber naval gun shells were so powerful that they simply could not be countered by manpower. So much so that the Imperial Army's 12th The army's second-line position was quickly destroyed.
At noon on the 4th, the Third Reich Army assembled two infantry divisions and two regiments of the 1st Marine Division to attack the second-line defense of the 12th Army of the Imperial Army. The position launched a fierce attack.
In less than an hour, the Second Army of the Sun Never Sets Empire, which suffered heavy losses, collapsed.
A large number of troops of the Sun Never Sets Empire either threw away their weapons and fled in confusion, or raised their hands to attack The Third Reich surrendered.

As more and more troops landed, the troops of the Third Reich began to march towards the area around New Rodney, further expanding their control.

Commander General Claude and Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Richard are actively Deploy troops and generals to prepare for the war in New Rodney
"Where are our reinforcements? When can I arrive in New Rodney?"Admiral Claude looked very irritated.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the 14th and 15th Corps are on their way to New Rodney. However, they were bombarded by the Third Reich Air Force, so that their marching speed was greatly affected. It is expected to arrive at 3pm."Lieutenant General Richard reported
"hateful! Three o'clock in the afternoon? It's too late. Order the 14th Army and the 15th Army to speed up and arrive before two o'clock in the afternoon! In addition, the 12th Army was ordered to persist until reinforcements arrived no matter what. We absolutely cannot allow the troops of the Third Reich to gain a foothold in New Rodney!"Admiral Claude gritted his teeth and ordered.

"What? Oh, God! What the hell is that guy Philip doing? Is he a stupid pig? How long has it been? Is his army finished?"Admiral Claude said angrily.
After all, the 1st Army had a total of 80,000 people! But it only lasted for half a day. It was really embarrassing. What's even more terrible is that the army of the Third Reich was in the Empire on which the sun never sets. Having established a foothold in the territory, it is almost impossible to drive them into the sea again.
