Chapter 3106: Can’t Teach, Can’t Save, Just Wait to Die

Compared to the intrigues and deceptions in the existing history, the cooperation between the Japanese and the Germans in this timeline, which was fanned by the butterfly wings of Malashenko, has been strengthened considerably.

The Germans are not only willing to provide actual samples of Tiger tanks, but also a full set of drawings, technical support and some production equipment.

Seeing that the Japanese sent enough gold, the Germans also "generously donated" and sent a whole support team including technical experts and military experts to the Japanese.

Not only did they help the Japanese build factories to produce copycat Tiger tanks, so that the fragile tank industry of the Japanese could play with the Tiger tank at one time.

Because the Japanese took a big step and wanted to eat a fat man in one go, they planned to imitate the German Wehrmacht to form an armored division with a similar structure but a larger organization. Because they needed supporting military guidance, they also sent a whole Wehrmacht officer corps.

There are quite a few people, led by a lieutenant colonel of armored troops, various instructors, accompanying soldiers, and guards, totaling nearly 200 people.

After all, the Japanese devils are planning to create an armored division, and it is not a shrunken three-combination division, but a real five-combat wing division.

In order to enable the five Japanese wings to master equipment, master tactics, and know how armored troops should fight as soon as possible, a military guidance team of 200 people is very necessary.

Even if it is divided equally by headcount, the actual number of supporting Germans that a wing can be allocated is not large, only 40 people.

Moreover, the number of 40 people is not only not many, but even a little too little.

Considering that the Japanese army's concept of armored cluster warfare is almost at the level of "bullshit", from the grassroots to the command level, all need teaching guidance, so it is actually predictable how busy these 40 people are.

On the other hand, it is true that the Japanese have a big appetite.

The five-unit armored division, including various auxiliary troops and logistical units, has a population of 50,000, which is an exaggerated level. If the number of people is counted alone, it is even stronger than the Second Division at any time in the past.

In the actual organization of the five combat regiments, there are two tank regiments and two infantry regiments, plus an artillery regiment.

The reorganization of modernized and formal armored forces is enough to give the Japanese army, which is an old-fashioned army, a headache.

As for the synthesis of the leader army, which has been reduced to the battalion level.

Sorry, let alone playing it, even if you tell the Japanese devils with textbooks now, the reaction of these idiots is just like listening to a fairy tale.

It's so funny, I don't understand it at all.

With the help of the Germans, the Japanese army can pull up the regiment-level formal armored forces, which is almost the limit of the current stage.

Even so, the Japanese army's ignorance of the concept of armored warfare, and its rigidity and dogmatism in military command and tactical arrangement, still opened the eyes of the Germans who were responsible for teaching and guiding, and suffered a lot.

Let's take a very simple example.

If the combat orders are not updated, the grassroots officers of the Japanese army are almost like children's toys that walk and rotate by themselves after being wound up. They are so rigid that they have no brains at all, or dare not have any brains.

Even if the orders they have received are completely inconsistent with the battlefield situation, they will still execute them to death without any grassroots subjective initiative.

This is not to say that the commonly understood thorough, in-place and powerful execution of orders is an advantage. This is not the case.

But even if the firepower of the machine guns on the opposite side is so strong that it is a one-sided massacre like mowing grass and harvesting wheat, the grassroots officers of the Japanese army will still let the soldiers die without hesitation, and even throw themselves on the bullets and be completely finished.

This is not the advantage of resolutely executing orders, but pure stupidity and brain damage.

The Germans who had a deep understanding and awareness of this situation on the training ground said, "I don't understand the board, but I am shocked." They understood more clearly why the Japanese lost so badly and died so many in the battle for the Pacific Islands. It turned out that they were all sent to the battlefield.

It is precisely the situation that the grassroots combat units of the Japanese army are pure machines that execute orders.

The Germans, whose attainments in the concept of armored cluster combat can be said to be second only to the Red Army, are scratching their heads and at a loss.

The reason is very simple. Armored combat is a combat mode with strong timeliness and fast pace, which emphasizes the subjective initiative of grassroots combat units.

It is not the slow pace of traditional infantry combat, where most problems can be solved by the commander in the rear alone, or at least it is a combat mode that basically solves the problem.

Look at the armored aces of the German army. Almost none of them fought by rote.

From Karvus to Wittmann to Konispel, all of them are highly subjective, smart, and dare to fight and charge.

After the rear commanders understand the armored combat situation on the front line, they will update the combat orders and pass them to the armored units on the front line for execution.

Forget about winning the battle, the opportunity is gone.

If you don't lose, you can just burn incense and kowtow, but you still expect to win? It's just wishful thinking.

It is precisely the consistent operation of the Japanese army to treat grassroots officers as pigs, which put the German instructors in a helpless and embarrassing situation of "not being able to teach".

This is the root system problem of the Japanese army, which cannot be solved by giving a few classes or teaching some advanced tactics.

The grassroots combat units were not open-minded and had almost no subjective initiative. No matter how advanced and ready-made tactics were, they were useless. They were like rootless duckweed and had no soil to survive.

The German officers continued to teach the Japanese, but the results were purely based on luck and luck. They were not guaranteed the final teaching results.

However, they did not expect that they were busy from 1944 to 1945 and directly killed the Nazis.

After receiving the news of the Nazi defeat and the suicide of the shampooer, the German officers were shocked and looked at each other in confusion.

Not to mention that going back at this time was purely seeking death, just how to go back was already a problem.

At the beginning, they came all the way across the ocean on the German Navy's ocean-going submarine. They were almost vomited to death by these landlubbers who were riding a submarine for the first time in their lives.

Now Dönitz and his U-boat army were all sent with the Nazis, and the sea blockade was completely blocked by the Americans. It was impossible to return home by the same means and route as before.

Even if they could go back, what would happen? Would they go to court as Nazi remnants, or would they go to a Soviet prisoner-of-war camp to think about the rest of their lives?

Fortunately, the former Japanese allies were relatively righteous and provided a solution, which was the only way out at the moment, for these former Nazi Wehrmacht soldiers who had lost their country to choose.
