In World War II, Auchinleck and Montgomery were the ones who contributed more in North Africa

I also think it's Auchinleck because Alamein's battle plan was formulated by Auchinleck, although the command was commanded by Montgomery, but because the battle plan was properly designed, and the preliminary work was perfect, the situation of the big war was basically expected, the command was quite easy, and there was no major psychological test, plus the large number of M4 Sherman medium tanks that the U.S. military assigned to the British army at that time greatly increased the attack ability of the British armored forces, and you should know that Rommel's chief of staff and he was a sworn enemy, Always against him, and the position is not firm, the German army on the Eastern Front is tight, so I have to draw troops and heavy ** from the relatively grim North Africa to deal with the Soviet army's powerful armor torrent and overwhelming deep tactics, I think Montgomery has not done anything big except for the battle of El Alamein, and he and his British troops are responsible for covering and cooperating with the American army in battles such as attacking Sicily. I think Auchinleck's merit is a little bigger!

I think it was Auchinleck, who laid the groundwork for the final victory. When he was in North Africa in 41, it was indeed a mess, Tobruk was surrounded, and if it weren't for his "crusade operation", Tobruk would have fallen long ago. Later his predecessor lost Tobruk, and it was he who held the Germans back at El Alamein.

Later, the Germans were falsely prosperous in El Alamein, and at the end of the strong crossbow, the British took advantage of the time and place, but they did not know it. Everything was calm, and after the crisis passed, Montgomery took advantage of it. If El Alamein could not win, Britain would be sorry for the so many Sherman tanks supported by the United States.

Auchinleck was a strategist, but Rommel was a tactician. Strategists tend to be top-heavy because they don't have good tactics. Montgomery actually defeated Rommel on the basis of Auchinleck, because it was Auchinleck who consumed Rommel's valuable tanks and soldiers, and it was Auchinleck who dragged Rommel's supply lines.

It was Auchinleck who traded a fortress of Tobruk for a big victory for El Alamein. Therefore, these two people cannot be compared, and the reason is that their main attack direction is different.

It was Claude John Auchinleck.

On June 21, 1884, Auchinleck was born in Aldershot, England. At the age of 12, Auchinleck entered the famous Wellington College in England, where he was full of personality and self-confidence, with excellent grades in history, geography and English, but not in mathematics. In January 1902, Auchinleck was admitted to the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, and after graduating in December of the same year, he went to serve in India.

In 1919, Auchinleck was sent to Quetta Staff College for further study. After graduating from the Quetta Staff College, Auchinleck served as a staff officer at the Quartermaster Command in Shimla before returning to the field unit. In 1927, Auchinleck was sent to the Imperial Defence Academy for further study.

After graduating, Auchinleck served as regimental commander and then as an instructor at the Quetta Staff College. In 1935, Auchinleck was promoted to major general, and the following year he became deputy chief of staff of the Anglo-Indian Army. In 939, when war broke out on the European continent, Auchinleck was transferred back to England and served as commander of the British Southern Military Region, and was promoted to lieutenant general.

In January 1941, Auchinleck returned to India as Commander-in-Chief of the British Forces in India. In July 1941, when the war in North Africa was critical, Auchinleck was transferred there to succeed Wavell as commander-in-chief of British forces in the Middle East, and was promoted to general.

In November 1941, he commanded the successful Crusader campaign, the first British military victory over Germany in World War II.

On June 25, 1942, he took over the Eighth Army and organized the First Battle of El Alamein, blocking the German offensive.

After leaving the Middle East theater of operations, Auchinleck lived in Britain for a year before returning to India as commander-in-chief of British forces in 1943, making India a solid base and training ground for the Allies in Southeast Asia. In 1946, Auchinleck was awarded the rank of marshal.

In 1981, Auchinleck died in the United Kingdom.

Auchinleck's talent was not under Montgomery's, but several senior officers under his command at that time were not effective, which led to his failure in combat many times, and his relationship with Churchill was very bad, Churchill, who was overwhelmed by the submarine strangulation and a series of defeats in the army, urgently needed a victory to boost the morale of the British, and Auchinleck's rational opposition angered him, and he was finally beaten to the end.

That guy's name is Auchinleck, right? The former commander of the British Eight Episodes. Let's take a look at this for yourself once the name is correct.

The Second Battle of El Alamein was a turning point in the North African theater of World War II. The campaign lasted from October 23, 1942 to November 3, 1942. After the Axis victory at the First Battle of El Alamein.

General Bernard Law Montgomery replaced Claude Auchinleck as commander-in-chief of the British Eighth Army, which consisted of Commonwealth soldiers, in August 1942. The victory in this battle turned the tide of the North African theater. The Allied victory at El Alamein dashed Nazi Germany's hopes of occupying Egypt and controlling the Suez Canal and the oil fields of the Middle East.

This campaign put an end to German expansion. Date: 23 October 1942 3 November 1942 Location:

El Alamein, Egypt Result: Allied Victory Commander Montgomery Erwin Rommel Strength Allied Forces: 220,000 men 1,100 tanks Axis powers:

116,000 men 559 tanks (220 German and 339 Italian)[2] ** Allies: 13,500 500 tanks Axis: 20,000 30,000 captured 525 tanks El Alamein is a 60-kilometre-long pass with the Mediterranean Sea on one side and an impassable gorge on the other.

The narrowness of the area and the limited front did not allow Rommel to carry out the large-scale flanking activities that he had always used to win. The commander-in-chief of the Middle East Theater, General Auchinleck, personally commanded the Eighth Army at that time. From 1 July to 17 July, in the so-called First Battle of El Alamein, he finally blocked Rommel's way.

In mid-August, Lieutenant General Montgomery took over the Eighth Army in preparation for the more famous Second Battle of El Alamein. Time was in favor of the British. Rommel understood that his side was seriously short of fuel, equipment, and aircraft, and that the enemy's strength had grown considerably at that time, and that it would be difficult to break through the enemy line.

He pleaded with the High Command in Berlin for massive reinforcements, but reinforcements never arrived; At this time, the British and French allies stationed in Gibraltar mixed the naval ** team, seized the sea supremacy in the Mediterranean, and effectively attacked the German and Italian supplies to North Africa, making it difficult for the German army to recover its original combat strength. When Montgomery launched the offensive on October 23, 1942, Rommel had fewer troops and ** than the British, and the Allies had air superiority. He advocated an immediate withdrawal to preserve the remnants of the troops, but Hitler ordered resistance, urging the Germans to "succeed or succeed."

Rommel considered this order to be insane, but continued to fight, with terrible results, and decided to retreat only on November 4. In 15 days, it retreated more than 1,100 kilometers. By that time, General Eisenhower's Allied forces had invaded French North Africa, using the longest pincer formation in history to flank Rommel's army, stretching from the Nile Valley to the Atlantic.

Rommel fought desperately with the British in rearguard, and soon met Eisenhower's fresh force in Tunisia. In March 1943, Rommel became seriously ill and returned to Germany.

Thank you for the trouble to adopt!

In World War II, Erwin Johannes Eugen Rommel earned him the nickname "Desert Fox" for his outstanding achievements in the African theater.

In November 1941, the British Eighth Army, with 100,000 troops and more than 750 tanks, launched an offensive codenamed "Crusaders" under the command of the famous General Auchinleck, and Rommel faced it with three German divisions, two Italian armies and 320 tanks. Due to a significant disadvantage in strength, the Germans withdrew from Cyrenaica. Soon after, he reclaimed Cyrenaica, and in late May, Rommel launched another attack on the British, sweeping through North Africa in less than two months, advancing a full 880 kilometers, advancing surprisingly quickly and turning the tide of the war.

Therefore, it is known as the "Desert Fox".
