- With the landing of the Chinese troops in Sicily, the war began to take a major turn. (ãßkunãßkun novel website diandian.com)
The Chinese ** team has completely taken over the Italian defense. Both the Chinese and the Germans are now convinced that Italy, an ally, is not trustworthy at all. Their presence will not only do no good, but will do bad things.
Rather than having any sense of shame, the Italians breathed a long sigh of relief. It was a good thing that they no longer had to be in that terrible battlefield.
After the Japanese troops landed in Sicily, the Allies also felt a huge panic. These squadrons, who never know what failure is, will inevitably show great combat effectiveness in Sicily.
The Allies quickly organized two major offensives, trying to take advantage of the Chinese Army's unstable foothold to solve this problem in one fell swoop.
However, the elite Chinese team will obviously not give them this opportunity. They tenaciously repelled the enemy's attack and ensured that the war could proceed smoothly.
On August 20, Army General Wang Mingzhang, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Communist Army in Sicily, arrived in Sicily and appointed Jia Haoyang, the third-level general of the Waffen SS Army, as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy.
A counterattack codenamed "Meat Grinder" began
For this counterattack, the Chinese ** team deployed a total of 8 divisions of the Waffen SS as the main attack, while the German army deployed 7 divisions to cooperate with the operation. As for the Italians? They may be more suitable for logistics supply tasks.
On August 27, a large number of Chinese and German fighter planes appeared over the battlefield. Compete with the Allies for air supremacy.
The air battle was extremely fierce. A large number of aircraft on both sides were shot down, but no one was willing to give up their crucial air supremacy.
Just as the battle began in the air, each attacking force quietly entered the attack position
On the 28th, after the tragic battle the previous day and countless previous battles, the Allied air force showed some fatigue. And those young Chinese Air Force guys who have just joined the European battlefield. But he showed a high fighting spirit. They took off in batches, fought with the enemy in the air, and tried their best to control the blue sky.
This was called the "Sicilian Air Battle."
Those jet fighters of the Chinese Air Force have demonstrated their tremendous power. In this regard, China is far ahead of the Allied fighters.
When Europeans and Americans were still laughing at the fact that jets were simply a fantasy. The Chinese government has quietly recruited supporters and researchers of the jet concept from Europe and the United States; while Europeans and Americans are still dismissive of the jet concept, a large number of geniuses in China, led by Wang Xi, have begun to Study jet aircraft. When Europe and the United States finally realized the tremendous power of jet aircraft, the Chinese Air Force had already equipped a large number of such advanced fighters.
This is a contest between two eras, a contest between the most advanced aircraft and aircraft that appear to be advanced but are actually far behind.
In fact, from the very beginning of the air battle, the top brass of the Chinese Air Force knew that there was not much suspense
The Chinese Air Force is gradually gaining control of air superiority, and is gradually using casualties that are far less than those of the Allies. Demonstrating his unshakable dominance in the air. Read h-u-n with me * h-u-n "" please remember
German pilots look with envy at the advanced fighter jets and bombers of their ally soaring in the sky. They can now confirm that having China as an ally is something worth being excited about.
From August 27 to September 3, in several days of air battles, the Allies lost a large number of aircraft, and air supremacy gradually came into the hands of the Chinese and German air forces.
Now, the next phase of Operation Meat Grinder can begin
On September 4, Wang Mingzhang issued the order for a general offensive. At 5:30 in the morning on the 4th, the former enemy commander-in-chief Jia Haoyang grabbed the phone on his desk
Thousands of artillery fired together, and the shells roared overwhelmingly and hit the Allied positions. Americans, British, Canadians, Australians of courseall of them. They were all covered by artillery fire
This is the roar of the Chinese army's counterattack, and this is also the roar of the Axis powers' counterattack!
Operation code name - Meat Grinder!
Artillery fire shrouded every corner of the battlefield, and Allied soldiers huddled in their trenches, enduring endless artillery fire coverage.
They have lost their sea superiority and their air superiority, what now?
Then, a large number of Chinese soldiers appeared on the battlefield. On their flanks were German soldiers whose confidence had never been higher.
"Let's move forward"??This is the only order he can give to his soldiers!
Attack, attack, attack again! This is also what Chinese soldiers require of themselves!
They don¡¯t care at all how many enemies are on the opposite side of them, or how fierce the enemy¡¯s firepower is. In their minds, completing the mission is the only thing soldiers should do.
And panic quickly spread among the Allied officers and soldiers.
As you can imagine, it¡¯s frustrating to see victory turn into defeat when you¡¯re about to win.
What¡¯s even more terrible is that the Chinese team showed no signs of stopping their attack. After winning the first stage, they quickly increased the intensity of their attack. Obviously, they will never give up until they drive all the Allied forces into the sea
What also frightened the Allies was the threat from the air.
Those Chinese planes bombed the Allied positions again and again. Endless bombs fell like raindrops, shattering the Allied positions.
Supreme Commander Eisenhower, the head of the Allied Forces in the Mediterranean, was also troubled.
Judging from the current war situation, if practical and effective measures are not taken, the Allies will lose the war here. His army commander Alexander kept sending urgent telegrams to him, but Eisenhower had no way to solve it.
The sea is also controlled by the Chinese, and now it has become extremely difficult to replenish Sicily.
"We must retreat." In a telegram sent to U.S. President Pitt, Eisenhower said: "Otherwise our troops will be completely destroyed here."
Just when the Allies were hesitant to retreat or continue fighting, the Chinese and German coalition forces once again made a major breakthrough, and the position defended by the British was completely breached.
"Retreat!"
On September 9, amid chaos on the battlefield, the Allies finally received such an order.
The great retreat has begun! The chaos of the scene was embarrassing. Countless Allied forces were rushing to evacuate from the battlefield, while the Chinese aircraft in the sky were relentlessly bombing the Allied forces. This made the already chaotic Allied forces become It became even more confusing.
"We have won." In his headquarters, Jia Haoyang said to Wang Mingzhang who came to inspect.
"We have won, but this is only in Sicily." Wang Mingzhang's face showed little excitement: "I have received orders from the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff, and we will serve as the leading force. Continue to maintain strong offensive power and deterrence against allied forces."
He paused briefly when he said this: "But the first thing we have to do now is to annihilate the enemies here as much as possible and let as few enemies escape from here as possible."
"Yes." Jia Haoyang replied calmly but firmly.
Operation "Meat Grinder" began on September 4, 1943, and ended on September 11. In this counterattack, the Allies lost 82,000 men!
As for the material losses, they are countless.
??If we just look at numbers, 80,000 people may be insignificant for a world war, but this sends a signal to the world:
Not only has the Chinese ** team been fully involved in the European war, but they are fully capable of winning. Whether it is the British or the Americans, there is no way they can stop the pace of the Chinese troops.
Now in Sicily, where will you be next? In any case, it is now the Allies' turn to have a headache. They are unable to capture the Chinese's next combat motivation.
The sky over Sicily stopped.
A brilliant rainbow appeared in the sky!
