Civil / doleful red wine
Mention the Italy when World War II is legionary, people the first reaction is fighting capacity extreme difference, especially Italian army, abandon bavin namely almost. The Duan Zi of black Italy on the net is major out Italy army. Nevertheless the proponent of a lot of Italy expresses to refuse to obey, think that is heart pink in Italy of bring shame on. So the Italian army fighting capacity when World War II has many strong, how much to differ than the Japanese army?
Above all, regard world-class as powerful nation, italian actual strength is very good still, it is the martial big country before the rank on the world leans quite. Before martial force at least of Italy can discharge the world 10. The nature of army fighting capacity of Italian army also is not special difference, at least is not useless bavin. Below we for the real fighting capacity of Italy army.
Main component is Italian army 3 kinds.
The first kind is brunt army, namely army of field operations of a gleam of. Regard the world as power of the 6th big industry, Axis powers one of 3 big tycoons, no matter Italian army is training or soldiers quality are not differred, at least is in the level before European middle reaches leans. The equipment of Italian army is more special and correct, can say the world is top-ranking, taller than Japan more than a class. Of one war period of Italian wash out goods Italy prepare Chinese medicine by roasting it in a panbig gun threw Chinese battlefield to be regarded as actually treasure, italian weaponry cans be imagined. The biggest question comes from Italian army to be mixed at morale will to fight. Because Italian army wants to fight far from, fighting so always is to go to work do not exert oneself, expression is no good naturally. Nevertheless this does not represent Italian military combat effectiveness to differ, it is Italian army is not willing only desperately just. But even so, the Italian army expression in Su Dezhan field a bit unlike German inferior. In Wu Kelan battle, 260 thousand Italy is expeditionary army Wu Kelan of sweep anything away, captive 100 thousand Su Jun. Japanese of at least of this military successes dare not boast he can be done arrive. In Si Dalin case straps battle in, what Axis powers army was immersed in Su Jun is heavy surround, axis powers army is forced break out of an encirclement, letting what person expect is less than is, the first develops those who surround is Italian army unexpectedly, the cut and thrust with recumbent and brutal army of nearly 5000 Italy rushed to surround, and what the De Jun with the larger amount that escapes nearby rushs to surround is mere 2000 people, the fighting capacity that Italian army shows feels even the Soviet citizen exclaim. Brunt unit combat effectiveness of Italy is not so low, if rise seriously, at least is not as poor as Su Jun, if desperately, differ with De Jun almost very few.
The 2nd kind is army of Italy staying behind, namely second line army. Unit of Italy staying behind is main quarter at mainland and and other places of Greek, Albania. Their main task is to cope with local guerrilla, maintain local order and public order. Although be second line,fight army, but the equipment of Italian army staying behind and fighting capacity are not poor. Yugoslavia guerrilla is the armament that the name gave to be able to be hit in World War II, spread all the time old, germany all the time clean up is not dropped. As ally, the Italian also participated in action of encircle and suppress, in the battle that besieges Yugoslavia guerrilla, a bit that Italian army makes is not as poor as local De Jun, fight in country especially in, of Italian army very outstanding, its fighting capacity and army of De Jun second line differ not quite, this perhaps is good at country fighting with Italy about.
The 3rd kind is colonial army of Italy, namely 3 wires unit. These unit basically are distributed to be mixed in North Africa East Africa area. They basically are in charge of maintaining local order, assume rarely fight the task, equipment is very so poor, fighting capacity also is no good. In initial stage of World War II, colonial army of Italy is hit so that do not break through Cheng Jun by the Englishman in North Africa, just changed condition till German arrival. Below Long Meier's direct, the Italian army of North Africa undertook train and consolidate, fighting capacity had bigger promotion, fighting capacity has approached the second line unit of the British Commonwealth. Face the Ying Jun that has absolutely advantage and in a steady stream to come ceaselessly nevertheless assisted U.S. Army, the Italian army that lacks supply and mechanization unit badly is black-and-blue keep on retreating, caused the failure of North Africa battle directly. Also cannot blame an Italian actually, flower beauty had armed tooth, mastering mastery of the sky and mastery of the sea again, change Japanese army to also will surely not compare Italy namely strong how many. Actually, what colonial army of Italy hits in a few battle is pretty good also, in the war within an inch of drives North Africa out of the Englishman. In Italian colonial army cooperate to fall, italian Aliaite armor division was to hit top-ranking level more, beat England actually elite troops brigade of the 22nd armor. If give Italian army adequate provisions and mechanization unit, italian army will surely not be defeated by an Englishman.
Overall will tell, the action of unit of field operations of a gleam of of Italian army is very fast, slightly under De Jun, second line army staying behind and combat effectiveness of unit of German second line differ not quite, 3 lines are colonial army the British Commonwealth of summary prep above is second-class and legionary, what so the true actual combat of Italian army fights force and upload character without the net is so poor. Italy behaves do not give prize, basically be Italian army is not willing to fight, and adversary compares another times strong. Actually, if change the Japanese army to go Sude battlefield, what may not can hit than Italian army is good. Connect Long Meier ever recognition: Italian army stunned the world, italian army was astonished German. Of be practical and realistic tell, the fighting capacity of Italian army is not as poor as the Japanese army. If consider equipment and firepower factor, japanese army may not is the adversary of Italian army.
