Chapter nine hundred and eighty seventh cheating Italian artillery
As the loyal younger brother of the German army, the Italian army imitates everything in German style, so the 6th Infantry Division has more than 23,000 people at full strength, and has more than 100 tanks and a large number of artillery. Since the beginning of World War II, Italy has been The main force of the Axis powers participated in almost all wars launched by the German army. "The world's understanding of the Italian army was only after World War II. During World War II, especially in the beginning, the world did not know that Italy was such a strange army, and the Italians I didn’t even have this understanding. After all, Italy’s national strength was not weak at this time.) Because the German army was charging ahead, the Italian army only needed to defend on the flanks or attack from behind. Therefore, Italy also achieved almost complete victory like the German army. The record gave him the capital to show off his power in front of traditional European powers such as Britain and France.
After entering the Soviet battlefield, the Italians suffered many defeats. The territory of Soviet Russia was too large. In order to implement the tactical concept of blitzkrieg, the Germans could only let the Italians be the main force. Of course, the result was that the Germans did not trust them anymore. The Italians also lost the courage to fight alone. Therefore, after entering the Soviet battlefield, the Italian army had fewer opportunities for actual combat. More often, they were actually used as garrison troops to guard the areas newly captured by the German army. The enemies they encountered were no longer regular troops like the Soviet Red Army, but local resistance forces such as guerrillas. There were fewer opportunities to fight a big battle, and the Italian army's combat effectiveness remained unchanged. It has not improved before. This is a real problem in the Italian army. However, the Italians themselves do not realize this. The German army's attack on Soviet Russia has been going smoothly. The tide is rising, and the Italians also consider themselves the victors. As a result, they put the title of the world's second strongest army on their own head out of passion.
"Sun Tzu's Art of War" states that a arrogant soldier will be defeated. The Italian 6th Infantry Division is now a arrogant soldier. No, Livani doesn't even know how many people there are in the Japanese Peace Army on the opposite side. Who is the commander? What is the officer's style like that he rashly issued a counterattack order? As soon as his counterattack order was conveyed, the artillery under his command immediately began to bombard the 14th Brigade of Great Wild Hope indiscriminately.
The Fourteenth Brigade was only about 1,700 meters away from the Italian Sixth Infantry Division at this time. This distance was actually not suitable for shelling with large-caliber artillery, so the target of Livani's counterattack was clearly the Fourteenth Brigade. As a result, the shells fired by his artillery hit six thousand meters away and landed in the marching column of the Korean Peace Army.
The commander of the Korean Peace Army, Jin Gehui, was riding on a horse and talking to his adjutant Park Haonan about the increase in the treatment of the Japanese Peace Army. The treatment of the Japanese Peace Army had increased and began to enjoy the same treatment as the French Nationalist Army. This matter was discussed in the United Nations There was a heated discussion within the military. Regarding the matter of improving the treatment of the Japanese Peace Corps, the Far East Expeditionary Force Headquarters and the Chinese Military Advisory Group of the Allied Forces did not hide the military from other countries in the Allied Forces. The result naturally attracted the attention of those who work every day. The strong dissatisfaction of the armies of other countries, which still only have rice porridge and pickles, is just because the Japanese paid for their improved treatment with their lives. Therefore, although the French and others are jealous and envious, they do not blame the Chinese for being unfair. The Koreans The exception may be to wash away the humiliation of being enslaved by the Japanese, or to prove that they have always resisted Japanese enslavement. Therefore, once the Koreans obtain the same status as the Japanese in the coalition forces, they will target the Japanese everywhere. , Now, the Japanese have changed their luck in fame through their own efforts. The Koreans are not looking for the real reason, but attribute the reason to the Japanese "a blind cat meets a dead mouse. This is great luck."
"How could the Japanese defeat the Germans? It was clear to me that the Germans had made a strategic retreat, and then the Japanese had the courage to pursue them. As a result, they reported it to the military advisory group. The Chinese gentlemen in the military advisory group did not know the truth. This is I was confused by them." Jin Gehui revealed the mystery behind the Japanese's meritorious service. No matter his tone or demeanor, there was an air of extreme contempt for the Japanese.
"If we had known this was the case, we should have applied to play forward." Park Haonan continued,
"No, no, it's not such a cheap thing. I heard that even if the German army retreated strategically, it still caused a lot of casualties to the Japanese. You have to remember that the coalition forces are cannon fodder to the Chinese, so if you rush in, Those at the front may have more opportunities to catch dead mice, but at the same time the casualties will definitely not be small. The brothers feel that I missed an opportunity. They don't understand me, Mr. Jin. If I really only plan for myself. If so, then I will definitely actively ask to be on the front line. Based on my relationship with Commander Geng, he will definitely agree to my request. But, am I that kind of person who would take the sacrifices of my brothers for my own future? Treating human life as a trifle, no, no, I can never do such a thing, Adjutant Park, the people below do not understand me, so they will inevitably misunderstand me. You know me, and you should know that my first consideration is everything I do. The common interests of us Koreans, you have to help me explain this to my brothers..."
Jin Gehui is a very ambitious man. As he said, the purpose of the Chinese government's establishment of the Korean Peace Army and the Japanese Peace Army is indeed not simple. It will certainly not be merciless to use them as cannon fodder at critical times. The reason why he worked hard to cooperate even He seemed groveling because he felt that this was also an opportunity for him. He repeatedly claimed in front of his confidants that he was not optimistic about the Chinese and believed that the Germans would definitely win this battle, but deep down he hoped that China would win. , because only in this way can he return to China alive, and only then will China be able to attack North Korea. If China counterattacks North Korea, the North Korean Peace Army will definitely participate in the war. By then, his identity in North Korea will be a liberator or even a redeemer. That way If so, it is not impossible for him to go one step further and become the new ruler of North Korea...
Because of such ambition, Jin Gehui usually pays great attention to winning over his subordinates, so he spends a lot of time telling Pu Haonan these things. However, he is so unlucky that he has not yet received Pu Haonan's guarantee. The whistling sound of artillery shells rang out, and he was confused. Suddenly he was dragged off the horse by Pu Haonan, and then he felt stars dancing in front of his eyes, and the next moment he lost consciousness in severe pain.
This round of Italian artillery fire lasted for more than a quarter of an hour. Amidst the rumbling sound of artillery, the Japanese soldiers of the Japanese Peace Army were trembling in their hearts, but when they lay on the ground and calmed down amidst the shouts of their commanders, they finally recovered. They found that the shell did not fall on their heads, but instead hit the Koreans behind them over their heads. The Japanese couldn't help but grinned.
