Volume 2: My Country Nine Hundred and Seventeen.  Different Italians

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The appearance of the Baron Guards is causing rapid changes in the situation on the battlefield.

    After successfully recapturing Leipzig, the Baron Guard, the most elite force of the German army, immediately launched an attack on Chemnitz.  Garrisoned at Chemnitz was an Italian army.

    Originally thought that when facing the Italians, this would be an easy battle, but surprisingly, this Italian army actually maintained a certain combat effectiveness.  Under the double blow of German aerial bombing and ground attacks, Chemnitz actually lasted a whole day without losing Chemnitz.

    This is the most surprising thing.  They are Italians, and no matter what kind of fighting situation they are in, the Italians are always on the verge of collapse!  Wang Weiyi was also surprised when he came to the front line and heard the news.  In the two world wars, he encountered the Italian army countless times on the battlefield, and such a team did not even bother to fight.  Even after the Battle of Berlin began, the Italian army's performance was as poor as in the past, but why was it different this time?

    Wang Weiyi doesn¡¯t quite understand.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    He decided to personally test the strength of the Italian army. On the night after he arrived at the front line, he ordered the entire army to launch a general attack on Chemnitz.

    Judging from the battle situation, although the combat effectiveness of the Italian army in Chemnitz was stronger than that of the previous Italians, it was not a match for the German army at all, and many positions were successively breached.  However, the Italians showed no signs of defeat.

    Under the fierce attack of the German army, the Italians, who had persisted for a whole day, could no longer hold on and quickly retreated into the city.  According to past habits, the Italians who had fought until this point had already performed their best, and it was time for the entire army to be defeated.

    But something happened again that shocked Wang Weiyi and the German army.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  Instead of being defeated, the Italians started street fighting with the Germans.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "I have never seen such an Italian army." Wang Weiyi murmured in disbelief.

    At this time, the sound of gunfire echoed through Chemnitz.  Compared with other Allied forces, the equipment of this Italian army is obviously inferior, but its willpower is amazing.

    On many positions, there are often only a few Italian soldiers holding weapons from the Second World War, struggling to hold on until the entire army is killed.

    When the German troops rushed into the positions they were defending, in addition to seeing corpses on the ground, they also saw the weapons they used:

    German-made MP38 submachine guns, former Soviet-made Bobosha submachine guns, and even Mauser rifles.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    God, their weapons are all old-fashioned, not even as good as the guerrillas who are resisting all over Germany.

    But even with the help of these outrageously inferior weapons, they have persisted until now.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  What kind of spirit is required to do this?  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    Through the captured prisoners, we finally figured out some general information. This unit is the Italian Diego Infantry Division.

    Diego Infantry Division?  Wang Weiyi always felt that he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

    That night, the German commandos continued to launch assault operations and successively broke through a large number of positions in the city defended by the German army.  But even so, the war has continued until now with no intention of stopping.

    At 1 o'clock in the morning, good news came from the front. A German assault squadron successfully locked the location of the Diego Infantry Division headquarters. Subsequently, a large number of German assault teams began to reinforce the place.

    This is another unexpected news.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  The highest commander of the Italian army has not retreated yet!

    "Don't hurt their commander, I need to see him alive." This was the only order Wang Weiyi gave to the frontline troops. He had already become deeply curious about the commander of this Italian army.

    However, it is obviously very difficult to defeat this division.

    Their equipment is somewhat better, and they even have two old-fashioned tanks and a large number of machine guns.  In the case of an absolute advantage, the German army is unwilling to suffer too many casualties, so the German army is not willing to pay too much loss to occupy the opponent's headquarters.

    At 1:20 in the morning, Ernst, the supreme commander of the German army.  Marshal Brahm led three "Leopard" vehicles to appear on the front line.

    "Marshal Ernst, the enemy's resistance is very tenacious." Colonel Bodemeier, leader of the Baron Guard SS Bodemeier Assault Group 1, came to the marshal: "Since you personally instructed to capture anyone alive, we did not  Dare to use heavy weapons to attack.¡±

    "Have you tried to persuade them to surrender?" Wang WeiYi asked as he grabbed the telescope.

    "Yes, the Marshal has already tried to persuade us to surrender, but there has been no response from the other party."

    Wang Weiyi exhaled: "If we still fail to defeat the opponent's defense with another attack, then the two tanks I brought will be under your command."

    "Yes, Marshal." This time Bodmeier felt confident.

    In fact, at this time, Wang Weiyi was more eager than ever to see the other party's commander, but he would never allow it to waste a lot of time here.  £®

    A new attack began soon. Colonel Bodmeier concentrated all his firepower and suppressed the Italians on the opposite side. Although the Italians suffered heavy casualties, they had no intention of fleeing.

    A captured Italian captain was brought in front of Wang Weiyi. There seemed to be any fear in his expression. He stood upright, but he did not hide anything from the questions asked by the Germans.

    The predecessor of the Diego Infantry Division was the Italian Bolza Infantry Regiment!

    Bolza Infantry Regiment, Bolza Infantry Regiment.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  Wang Weiyi frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly he knew what kind of army this was.

    It was during World War I, in Udine, Italy, that the Bolza Infantry Regiment was responsible for defending this important Italian town.

    And their commander is Colonel Diego.  The Italian officer who ended his life with a pistol and was never willing to surrender until the last moment when the city of Udine was breached.

    He even thought of the letter Colonel Diego asked him to give to his wife before committing suicide.

    "Dear German Commander, please entrust this letter to my wife and I will express my deepest respect for you. Your enemy Diego."

    Wang Weiyi did not read the contents of the letter, but he fulfilled Colonel Diego's last wish.

    In World War I, although the combat effectiveness of the Italian army was ridiculous, Colonel Diego was undoubtedly worthy of respect as a person.

    "After the end of World War I, in recognition of Colonel Diego's bravery, the Bolza Infantry Regiment was named the Diego Infantry Regiment, and finally expanded to the Diego Infantry Division." The words of the Italian captain were full of  Proud: "The people of Diego Infantry Division will always persist until the last moment."

    "Yes, just like Colonel Diego" Wang Weiyi sighed softly.

    At this time, at least half of the Italian army on the opposite side had been wiped out, and the three "Leopard" vehicles had also completed preparations for final annihilation.

    However, at this moment, the gunfire from the opposing side suddenly stopped.

    "Stop the attack!" Wang Weiyi promptly issued such an order.

    The gunfire stopped immediately, and after a while, an Italian major holding a white flag came out, and he was brought to Wang Weiyi.  He told Wang Weiyi that their division commander, Major General Chernock, was ready to surrender. The major general's only request was to ensure the safety of the surrendering soldiers.

    Wang Weiyi agreed to this request without hesitation.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    This was the first time he met Major General Chernock, but this Italian major general seemed to be very familiar with Wang Weiyi. He saluted Wang Weiyi: "Marshal Ernst, Commander of the Diego Infantry Division of the Kingdom of Italy."  Nok Stino surrenders to you. We have fulfilled our duty as Italian soldiers. If we continue to fight, more Italian soldiers will die. I will bear all the responsibility for this failure and surrender!"

    "No, General Chernock, your performance is very brave. Even such bravery is not inferior to that of the German soldiers." Wang Weiyi said very seriously, and then, he suddenly seemed to remember something: "Chernock  £®Stino? During the First World War, I knew an Italian lieutenant colonel in Udine. He was also in the Bolza Infantry Regiment. I remember clearly that he preferred to be a doctor.  Officer's man."

    A proud smile appeared on Chernock¡¯s face: ¡°He is my father.¡±

    In an instant, Wang Weiyi understood everything.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    It was World War I, Udine, Italy.

    The war is over, and Lieutenant Colonel Stino, who performed extremely bravely, became a prisoner.

    Some Italian soldiers stayed in Udine out of necessity, including Lieutenant Colonel Stino.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    The lieutenant colonel did not have time to run away, and he also became a prisoner of the Germans.  However, when it came time to send him to a prisoner of war camp in the rear, Lieutenant Colonel Stino refused the request.

    He met the legendary Skeleton ManSir Ernst.  Brahm, he told the Baron that he begged to stay in Udine. In addition to wanting to accompany Colonel Diego who committed suicide here, he also wanted to take care of the wounded.

    Wang Weiyi was a little surprised that Lieutenant Colonel Stino was actually an outstanding student in medical school. It was only by chance that he entered the army and became a lieutenant colonel.

    After deep thought, Wang Weiyi agreed to the Lieutenant Colonel¡¯s request.

    "Compared to the army, I prefer to be a doctor." After examining a wounded soldier, Lieutenant Colonel Stino told his defeated enemy Ernst.  Lieutenant Colonel Brahm: "War makes people bleed and die, but doctors are used to save lives. These are two completely different professions, but I have done both professions now."

    To be honest, although the behavior of these Italians on the battlefield was very ridiculous, when the smoke of the war cleared, some of their words were quite thought-provoking.

    Wang Weiyi nodded in agreement: "There are many things you don't want to do, but you have to do them. Those things you like to do, you can only put aside helplessly. Lieutenant Colonel Stino, please forgive me for being direct. I  I don¡¯t think you are a good soldier, but you can try to be a good doctor.¡±

    "I agree." Stino was not angry at all because of the other party's "rudeness": "The war will end sooner or later, right? What else can the soldiers do at that time? Colonel, actually I have thought about it a long time ago,  No matter whether Italy wins or loses this war, I will take off this uniform and do what I like.¡±

    Wang Weiyi finally released Lieutenant Colonel Sidino.  £®  £®  What's surprising is that he actually met the lieutenant colonel's son here

    "I did not study medicine as my father asked me to do, but joined the army." Chernock laughed at himself: "I don't believe that the Italian army is really as incompetent as others say. I want to try to train myself."  A real army to prove that Italians can still fight well, but unfortunately, I still failed."

    "No, you should not bear the main responsibility." Wang Weiyi slowly shook his head: "What makes me wonder is, with the combat effectiveness and bravery of your troops, why are you equipped with such inferior weapons? Italy does not lack  Good weapon."

    "Yes, Italy does not lack good weapons and brave soldiers. What Italy lacks is an excellent commander." A sad look flashed across Chenoke's face: "Our leader has a great influence on me.  £®

    Wang Weiyi fully understood in an instant that Major General Chernock and his troops were nothing more than political victims.

    "There is always such a thing." Wang Weiyi sighed softly: "General Chernock, do you think the Allies can win the war? Can Italy get what they want from the war?"

    "I don't know whether the Allies can win, but I know that Italy will never get any benefits." Chernock sneered: "A country that constantly betrays its allies and has its own weak strength will never be able to gain anything from others."  Real respect, when Italy's value is used up, he will be kicked away like a broken sack!"

    This is not only a brave general, but also a very wise general.  Wang Weiyi nodded and suddenly said: "Will you join us, General Chernock?"

    "I do!" Surprisingly, Chernock did not hesitate for even a second: "As an Italian general, I have fulfilled my duties here. I fought until the last moment and had a clear conscience.  I think it's time to do what I want to do, Baron. I have heard countless magical stories about you from my father since I was a child, but after my duty is completed, I am willing to follow you to fight to find the true identity of the Italian officer.  glory!"

    Wang Weiyi smiled happily.  First the American officer Major Mario, now the Italian Major General Chernock, Germany is not alone in this world.

    "You will regain command of your troops and will be supplemented by some German-made weapons" Wang Weiyi raised his voice and said: "General Cheroke, a brave man, always has friends.  of."

    A brave person always has friends.  This sentence is applicable at any time.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "Marshal, we have just received news from the front line." At this time, Kalembu hurried over: "The Brandenburg Commando commanded by Colonel Heisenberg and a Wehrmacht team conducted a surprise attack on Levto  , and successfully occupied this place.¡±

    "What? Bring me the map!"

    ?The map was quickly laid out, Wang Weiyi looked at it, and Kalembu pointed to a point on the map and said: "This is right here, Levto, this is a very critical place for us to enter Robbins.  However, according to the intelligence coming from the front line, the number of German troops there is very small. The Russians have organized a strong force to attack in an attempt to recapture Levto. If Levto is still in our hands before we arrive,  That will be very beneficial for timely reinforcements to Robbins."

    Wang Weiyi nodded and was about to speak when Kalembu suddenly whispered: "Marshal, there is a question you may not be very clear about. The imported commandos are affiliated with the SS, and every commando among them is very  £®

    "Are you worried about whether they will work together?" Wang Weiyi understood the meaning of Karenbu's words.

    Karenbu nodded, and Wang Weiyi pondered for a moment: "Since they can work together to capture Levto, I believe they can also guard it together. Karenbu, is the conflict between the SS and the Wehrmacht prominent?  "

    "Generally speaking, it doesn't happen very much, but it does exist in some elite SS units, especially units like the Brandenburg Commandos that have repeatedly made military exploits in World War II." Cullen  Bu said frankly: "Actually, such contradictions already existed when the SS was formally established, and have never been well resolved. But the victory that year covered up these contradictions, and there were still so many conflicts in Germany at that time  A good general can hold them down, but things are different now.¡±

    Wang Weiyi nodded silently. Yes, the contradiction between the SS and the Wehrmacht has always existed, but he never expected that it would not change after so many years.

    Especially at Germany's most critical moment, such a problem is absolutely not allowed to exist.  A solution must be found.

    A united country and a united army are the key factors to overcome all difficulties!
