Unlimited Military Base

The battle in Bonosa is surprising, and the Italian warfare is also ridiculous.

The huge war materials, enough to hold on to the reserves of the first half of the year, made them unable to prepare for the last war. Their threat to the Germans was almost zero.

Their only role in the war was to drag the Austro-Hungarian Empire for several months.

Not only did the Skulls assault team be as devastating, but the German army that launched the offensive was also attacking smoothly. The 2nd Italian Army, which has a great advantage in topography and strength, did not know why only the strength of the four divisions was placed in the first echelon. The defense was already washed away when the Germans launched their first impact.

The Italians have no resistance to the Germans.

Whether in terms of strategy, tactics, or command of the troops, the Italian commanders are of low quality to a heinous level.

Immediately, the 14th Army of the Germans crossed the Isonzo River in the Caporetto area and continued to advance. Then, the 2nd and 10th Army of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which supported the 14th Army, also moved into the offensive. The Italian 2nd Army suffered heavy losses and the Emperor was evacuated to the rear position.

General Von Bello did not believe at first that the German-Austrian attack would be so smooth, the Italians would lose so quickly, but when news of one victory after another reached his desk, General Bello did not know What are you saying?

There is really nothing in this victory that is worth boasting.

The Skulls Commando continued to be the most dazzling star in the Caboreto Conference. They defeated a complete Italian infantry division with the power of an infantry regiment with more than 1,200 commandos and occupied Tormezzo in the shortest possible time.

It is said that the materials they seized were spent on a few days and nights with several teams. This was the last time that Todd, who had received the supplies, was dragged to the top of his brain.

Cannons, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, weapons you can think of are here!

How to transport so many materials back?

The soldiers of the whole regiment were dispatched to carry these materials, and no one was taken care of by the captives. They would not run anyway. The local Italians were also hired by the Colonel Todd, but the manpower was not enough. The Colonel Todd pulled the brain to the Italian captives.

However, Major General Cross has categorically rejected such a request. His reason is very simple, they are all captives, not the porters who sell hardies.

Colonel Todd is a veteran soldier who is reluctant to use machine guns to threaten such violent ways to order prisoners. He negotiated with the senior officers of Major General Cross and Commodore for two hours, and finally the two sides finally reached an agreement:

Italian prisoners can help with the handling of supplies, but the German side must pay them an equal amount of compensation and must guarantee a ten-hour break every day. Officer captives do not participate in the handling, only responsible for supervision

Colonel Todd pulled the colonel and felt that he was not a German officer, but a businessman. Are these Italian prisoners really military? Colonel Todd pulled a serious suspicion

Colonel Ernst. Breem and his Skulls commando had left Tormozo when Colonel Todd pulled the brains for these materials.

It’s nothing to capture Tormezzo, Udine is their real goal.

General Von Bello once promised Colonel Ernst. Breem, as long as he can capture Udine, he will try to beg for William II to think of Baron Alexson, the great iron cross of the Germans!

Now, Colonel Ernst .Breem has one less big iron cross on the chest.

Thanks to the Italians, their material warehouses have replenished the Skulls Commando to the greatest extent possible. Don’t look at the Italian army’s fighting quality is not good, but their weapons are really good.

Wang Weizhen decided to cross the Tagliamento River!

After crossing here, you can see Udine.

The Tank squad commanded by Goodrian had no way to cross the river. They could only detour from the other side under the cover of the third squad of Manstein.

The first detachment that Wang Weizhen personally commanded, and the second detachment commanded by Rommel, began to cross the river.

There is no Italian army defense across the river. If there are a few heavy machine guns there, the commando will be the worst loss since the team was built.

Modr found a way to find some boats for the officers to use, while the ordinary officers and soldiers could only cross the Taliamento River by themselves.

“Elena, reporting on the situation in Udine.” Sitting on the boat, Wang Weizhen asked with a relaxed expression.

The well-prepared Elena blurted out: “Ernst, we are afraid that it is not so smooth. In Udine, although there is only one infantry brigade with Italians and no heavy firepower, their commander Colonel Diago is an old man. Qualified soldiers, rigorous, cautious, and decisive, are the aliens of Italian military officers.”

Wang Weizhen almost laughed. One such officer actually became an alternative among the Italians?

Colonel Diago is 55 years old this year, but he is still only a colonel. Apart from the advantages mentioned earlier, his combat is very brave, but the interpersonal relationship is not very well handled. This is not very good in the Italian army. So mixed, so he was placed in Udine. It is said that General Cadorna is worried that putting such officers on the front line will cause others to protest.”

Elena’s words made Wang Weizhen frown. “Is there really only one brigade in Udine? Is there no firepower?”

“Yes.” Elena replied very positively: “Intelligence has been confirmed. General Cadorna’s operational thinking is to concentrate all forces on a big battle with the enemy. If you win, then everything is fine. But if it fails If he does not hesitate to order the retreat, Udine is completely abandonable in his plan. Once the defeat is defeated, General Cadorna will order his troops to retreat along Palmanova and St. Donat. Piah River, with his character is not going to Udine

“Then our chances are here.” Wang Weizhen squinted and thought: “They can retreat when they retreat, but if there is a chance to counterattack, Udine will become a nail on the enemy’s path.”

Elena doesn’t quite understand: “Ernst, do you think the enemy will counterattack?”

“Italy is not fighting alone.” Wang Weizhen smiled bitterly: “They also have the support of Brittish and the French. If we have enough railroads and cars to transport the troops, then the Caporeto battle will be decisive. In a conference war, this even allowed the Italians to surrender, but unfortunately we did not have to consider retreating when our troops were exhausted. Udine will become a very important strategic point.”

Wang Weizhen has some helplessness, he still can not affect the German military high-level.

In Caporeto, the Germans did not invest too much force. If the troops can be increased in advance and the troops from the east line to the west line are arranged to some more to Caporeto, then this conference will be The entire war has a decisive impact.

It’s a pity that these are just Wang Weizhen’s vision of war.

The ship has arrived on the other side. Wang Weizhen has walked down the boat and crossed the Tagliamento River. Udine is already looking.

The soldiers had just crossed half, and Guderian’s Tank squad and Manstein’s squad had not seen it, and God knew where they were coming from.

Rommel was a little unlucky, and his boat turned over halfway, and as a result he was now wet.

“These damn Italians!” Rommel blamed the Italian for his reason for the shipwreck: “I have to find a set of clean clothes, so it’s not too decent to wear.”

When Wei Longer changed clothes, Wang Weizhen came to his side: “Elwin, I am afraid there will be a hard fight in Udine.”

“Are you referring to Brittish’s reinforcements?” Rommel made a joke.

“Hey, Erwin, you don’t want to underestimate the enemy.” Wang Weizhen couldn’t see a smile on his face: “The vast majority of Italian officers and military are not worth mentioning, but they will occasionally have one or two. Good officers, like Elena, just mentioned to me, Colonel Diago, who is stationed in Udine.”

“I don’t think he can make any achievements.” Rommel, who put on clean clothes, feels a lot better: “I also got this information from Elena. Yes, Colonel Diago is not like an Italian officer. But he has a fatal weakness, that is, his interpersonal relationship is too bad. I believe that once he needs assistance, no one will help him. At the same time, Udine has no heavy weapons, and his infantry brigade is even heavy. The machine guns are pitiful. Do you know why? Because good weapons are given to other troops.”

Wang Weizhen smiled. It seems that Rommel’s attention and preparation for intelligence is more than himself. Maybe this is why he will become such a dazzling star in the future?

“I hope we can easily occupy Udine.” Wang Weizhen stretched out: “In fact, I hope that Colonel Diago can resist more, or else our soldiers will not be able to fight.” ”

Rommel smiled: “I prefer to fight Brittish, not these Italians. God knows why anyone would choose them as allies.”

Hitler, who just got on the shore, just heard this and couldn’t help but swear: “I don’t like these Italians anyway.” (To be continued. Please search h astrolog W, the novel is better and faster!)
