Chapter 1510 442 Infantry Regiment

"We are the 442nd Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army. We were ordered to come to support Moscow. I'm Collett, the regiment commander." is weird.

Collett saluted the Soviet staff in front of him.

Looking at this short guy, Kurasov remembered the enemies he had encountered in the Battle of Nomenkan. They must be of a race. I didn't expect that how did the Americans send them here?

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, not far from the railway station, there was a deafening sound. It was a large-caliber howitzer. When it exploded, the glass of the entire railway station was slamming. It shattered in the sound, and the vibrations on the ground made everyone's faces change.

"The German army has approached the suburbs of our Kalinin." Kurasov said: "Now, please join the battle immediately, and I will send someone to take you to the position."

Curasov looked at this group of guys, wondering how their combat effectiveness was, but just after a shot was fired, they didn't panic and ran around, and they looked pretty good.

"Yes." Lieutenant Colonel Collette shouted to the people behind him: "Come with me, we will immediately go into battle and kill all the enemies!"

"Kill all the enemies!" Everyone shouted loudly, raising their weapons high.

They were dressed in American uniforms, and their weapons were the same as those of the American army. Lee-Enfield rifles were the majority, followed by Browning machine guns. At the same time, there were some soldiers carrying cylindrical things in their crowd.

The 442nd Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army is almost entirely composed of Japanese Americans. They are mainly composed of the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion, the 522nd Artillery Battalion, and the 232nd Combat Engineer Company.

Among them, the main force is the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion. The backbone of this independent infantry battalion is mainly the second-generation Japanese-Americans who were originally the US military. They originally served in the 298th and 299th National Guard Infantry Battalions in Hawaii.

When the Pearl Harbor incident broke out, most of these Japanese soldiers were expelled from the military and were classified as 4-F (unfit for service) or 4-C (enemy overseas) personnel, respectively.

However, the dismissed soldiers petitioned General Emmons, the commander of the U.S. Army in Hawaii, for permission to join the war preparations, and eventually about 1,300 Japanese were trained and named the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion. Later, on the basis of this independent infantry battalion, the 442nd Infantry Regiment was formed.

As a sign of determination, the motto of the infantry battalion was "Don't forget Pearl Harbor."

At that time, their enemy was an island country, but now, Germany is also involved in a war with the United States, especially the recent defeat of Iceland and the elimination of two American marine divisions, which made them even more angry, and now, they are motivated.

Teams of soldiers moved towards the front line. At this time, their small stature was despised.

"Hey, which part are you from?" As soon as they got out of the train station, at the intersection, a sentinel shouted to them, and even the sentry even raised his gun and aimed at them.

Don't blame the Sentinels, these people are so weird.

At this time, Lieutenant Greevich, who was leading the way, immediately greeted: "This is our reinforcements, they are on the battlefield."

They all knew Lieutenant Greevich, and looking at Greevich at this time, they couldn't help but say, "Just these groundhogs, still fighting?"

Most of the Soviet soldiers were tall and big, and only a group of tank soldiers recruited from Central Asia were short. And now, seeing these little guys, they are extremely despised.

The title of groundhog was spread throughout the Kalinin Military District almost on the same day.

The groundhogs ignored this stubble. For them, they have a more important thing, which is to use their own blood to prove their loyalty!

"boom!"

"Boom!" When they drove along the traffic trench outside Kalinin City to the position, there was already a sea of ​​fire in front of them, and the entire position seemed to have been plowed.

"This is the German multi-barrel rocket launcher. Generally speaking, after such a large-scale coverage strike, they start to attack." Lieutenant Greevich said: "Wait now, when their artillery fire is over, we will Go up again."

In the traffic trench behind, you can also feel the violent vibration of the ground. Hayashi, the battalion commander of the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion, stuck his head out and looked into the distance with his high-powered telescope. The artillery fire was too intense.

If there is no suitable fortification, this shot of artillery fire may wipe out their entire army.

Before going to the battlefield, they were already mentally prepared, but seeing this scene, they couldn't help but sigh, the Germans' artillery fire was too fierce, how did the Soviets support it?

"You don't have to look, you can't see anything." Greovich lit a cigarette silently, "We encounter this level of shelling every day, and this is not the most terrible, the terrible thing is Germany Human tanks, once their tank units charge, with the cooperation of the infantry, we have no choice but to die on the ground."

Don't take a step back, it's a dead order.

They really have no way out, because the rear is Moscow, their capital, and they must fight to the death here.

These days, their defense lines have been shrinking. Every time a position is conquered, it means that all the defenders on the position are killed. In order to fight the German tanks, they even strapped explosives to their bodies and rushed to the tanks.

Unfortunately, it is useless. The infantry next to the tank will use dense bullets to protect the surrounding of the tank. These days, almost everyone has no confidence in the war, and has no choice but to die.

These American reinforcements, likewise, will be consumed on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, he actually had some sympathy for the group of groundhogs. After all, this is not their country, but they will all be buried here.

"The German tanks? Well, we must kill the German tanks!" Hayasi said: "We immediately organized death squads, stepped forward, ambushed in the way the German tanks were advancing, and then killed them! It's over, we'll start right away."

Take out the German tanks? Hearing the words of the groundhogs, Greevich couldn't help asking: "What are you going to use to kill the German tanks?"

Against tanks, either your own tanks or anti-tank guns.

Due to the extreme lack of fuel, the number of tanks that they can move is very small, and most of them have to be used as fixed bunkers, which are more likely to be destroyed by the Germans. There is a chance for one to fire, and then it will be taken out by German tanks.

In short, they consume a lot.

Now, what means do these new reinforcements have?

"We have this." Hayasi patted the cylindrical thing he brought.
