Chapter 1508 442 Infantry Regiment

"We are the 442nd Infantry Regiment of the United States Army and are ordered to support Moscow. I am the regiment commander of Kolite." The lieutenant colonel is also relatively short. He speaks English, and the tone is always strange compared to the orthodox American English.

Kolit saluted to the Soviet staff in front of him.

When Curasov looked at this short guy, he remembered the enemies he had encountered in the Battle of Nomenkan. This must be of a race. I really didn't expect that how the Americans sent them over?

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a deafening sound was made not far from the railway station. This was a large caliber howitzer. When it exploded, the glass of the entire railway station was shattered in a rustling sound. The vibration on the ground came, causing everyone's face to change.

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

Curasov looked at these guys and didn't know how powerful they were, but just after a shot, they didn't panic and ran around, and they looked pretty good.

"Yes." Lieutenant Colonel Kolite shouted to the person behind him: "Come with me, we will immediately enter the battle and kill all the enemies!"

"Kill all the enemies!" Everyone shouted loudly, holding up the weapons in their hands.

They were dressed in American uniforms and their weapons were the same as those of the American troops. The Lee Enfield rifle occupied the majority, followed by the Browning machine gun. At the same time, there were some soldiers carrying cylindrical objects in their crowds.

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

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

When the Pearl Harbor incident broke out, most of these Japanese soldiers were expelled from the military and were classified as 4-f-level (not suitable for service) or 4-level (enemy overseas Chinese) personnel respectively.

However, the dismissed soldiers petitioned General Emmons, the commander of the United States Army in Hawaii, to allow them to join the war preparations. In the end, about 1,300 Japanese people were trained and named the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion. Later, based on this independent infantry battalion, the 442nd Infantry Regiment was formed.

To show your determination, the motto of this infantry battalion is "Forget Pearl Harbor".

At that time, their enemy was an island country, but now, Germany and the United States were also caught in war, especially recently, they had conquered Iceland and wiped out two American marine divisions, which made them even more angry. Now, they are working hard.

Teams of soldiers drove towards the front line. At this time, their narrow figure was looked down upon.

"Hey, which part of you are from?" As soon as I left the railway station, at the intersection, a sentry shouted to them, and even the sentry raised their guns and headed at them.

This is not the sentry, these people are so strange.

At this time, Lieutenant Glevich, who was in charge of leading the way, immediately greeted: "This is our reinforcement force, they are on the battlefield."

They all knew Lieutenant Glevic. Looking at Glevic at this time, they couldn't help but say, "Just these marmots are still fighting?"

Most of the Soviet soldiers were tall and big, and only a group of tank soldiers recruited from Central Asia were short. Now, when they saw these little guys, they were extremely despised.

The title of groundhog came almost the same day throughout the Kalinin Military Region.

The groundhogs ignored this. For them, what they had more important is to use their own blood to prove their loyalty!

"boom!"

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

"This is a multi-rocket launcher of the Germans. Generally speaking, after such a large-scale coverage attack, they started attacking." Second Ensign Glevic said: "Now wait first, and we will go up until their artillery fire is over."

In the traffic trench behind, you can also feel the violent vibration of the ground. The battalion commander of the 100th Independent Infantry Battalion leaned out and looked into the distance with his high-power telescope. There was a smoke of gunpowder, and I couldn't see anything clearly. The artillery fire was too fierce.

If there are no suitable fortifications, the artillery fire may cause them to be wiped out.

Before going to the battlefield, they were mentally prepared, but when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but sigh that the German artillery fire was too fierce. How did the Soviets support it?

"No need to see anything." Glevic silently lit a cigarette. "We can encounter this kind of shelling every day. This is not the most terrifying thing. What is terrible is the German tanks. Once their tank troops charge, with the cooperation of the infantry, we have no other choice except to die in battle on the position."

You cannot take a step back, this is a dead order.

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

These days, their defense line has been shrinking. Every time the position is conquered, it means that all the defenders on the position are killed. In order to attack the German tanks, they even tied explosives to their bodies and rushed towards the tanks.

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

These reinforcements from the United States will also be consumed on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, he actually felt a little sympathetic to these marmots. After all, this place is not their country, but they are all going to be buried here.

"German tanks? Well, we must kill the German tanks!" Hayashi said: "We immediately organize suicide squads, leave the position, ambush the German tanks on the way forward, and then kill them! As soon as the shelling is over, we will start immediately."

Kill the German tanks? Hearing these groundhogs, Glevic couldn't help but ask: "What are you going to kill the German tanks?"

To deal with tanks, they are either their own tanks or anti-tank guns.

Due to the extreme lack of oil, the number of tanks they can move is very small, and most of them have to be used as fixed bunkers, which is more likely to be destroyed by the Germans. As for anti-tank guns, they must first survive the Germans' covered artillery bombardment, and then there will be a chance to fire, and then they will be killed by the German tanks.

Anyway, they consume a lot.

Now, what are the methods of these newly-reinforced reinforcements?

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