SHIELD's new recruits

After the plan was deployed, all the troops entered the preparation stage, but the heavy artillery brigade was still performing shelling missions every day. The [-]-kilometer defense line in front kept thinking about the sound of the artillery, and in the headquarters of the Allied Powers in Paris, Petain And Haig is studying how to use the US military.

"What does the United States mean, using such a young general, and their first echelon doesn't even have a lieutenant general. Although they took over part of the defense, it is only [-] kilometers away." Pétain said.

Haig didn't take it seriously, "It's normal. The U.S. military is all recruits. They have never experienced war. Although there are fifty divisions and twenty brigades, their establishment seems to be very small. Each division has only more than 1 people. , not even half of ours, but their weapons are pretty good."

"Well, that's true. It's not good to count on them, but where do we need to replenish the troops we replaced?"

"Let's add the line of the Marne, how about trying to attack again at the end of the year?" Haig really wanted to attack.

"This..." Petain had to think about his predecessor, who was dismissed because of too much loss in a battle, so he hesitated and changed the subject directly, "I heard that the Americans are bombarding every day, are they Isn't there any action?"

"How is it possible? What can their recruits do? Well equipped doesn't mean they are capable of fighting."

The two of them didn't know that Wesley had already deployed the attack, but he didn't notify the headquarters at the same time. The double-release spy war was going on all the time. Wesley didn't know if the news would be leaked, so he didn't notify at all. Although the disadvantages of doing so were great, It is possible for the U.S. military to fight alone, but Wesley doesn't care about it at all. His troops have enough strength to deal with it, and he is not afraid even in the face of 200 million enemies.

On September 1917, 9, the First World War will be different here. At six o'clock in the morning, the heavy artillery brigade started shelling again. This time it was ten heavy artillery brigades, plus fifty divisions of 27mm howitzers. This is a human battle. For the first time in history, the large-scale use of rapid-fire guns is not comparable to the French 'Miss 105', and it is not at the same level at all.

"Boom boom boom" The [-]-kilometer German defense line was engulfed in flames, and the troops of the First Army were already preparing. They would conduct non-running coordination. After an hour of bombardment, the bombardment began to extend, and then the soldiers jumped out In the trenches, one squad is divided into three combat groups, and the finished battle team advances. Their tactics are completely carried out in accordance with the new infantry drills.

These soldiers are new recruits, but they have been trained for two years, and there is no problem with their tactical movements. It's just that soldiers who have never seen blood are recruits after all, and this is their first time.

The leading troops of the three divisions were concentrated at three points, and the follow-up troops were still following up. The shelling has been replaced by 75mm rapid-fire guns, and the heavy artillery is fully extended. This is to prevent accidental injury, and they are 500 meters in front of the local positions. The mortar group began to be deployed. When the soldiers reached 200 meters from the local position, the shelling stopped, and then a large number of machine guns began to prepare, and the soldiers charged.

The German position was in a panic. They didn't know whether the enemy was attacking, but the observation post could finally see the situation ahead, "The enemy is attacking." With a loud shout, the surviving observation post shouted loudly, and then the whistle was blown.Whistles were commonly used in World War I, and they were very useful for sending messages.

The German troops took up weapons one after another and came to their combat posts, but at this moment, there were piercing screams, "shelling".Mortars were used in World War I, but they were not used very much. After all, these soldiers have been subjected to different shelling for two years, and they are used to it. But this time they miscalculated because there were too many mortars. Groups of 60mm, 80mm, and 120mm mortars attacked directly into the trenches, and the current trenches are not zigzag.

A straight-line trench can maximize the lethality of a shell. After 5 minutes of bombardment, the infantry has moved to the position of 100 meters from the front line. They prepared grenades, and the shelling stopped. The soldiers jumped up and rushed to a distance of 50 meters. , and then the grenade is thrown.

The "boom" exploded again, and the German army was about to collapse. A week of shelling, followed by a larger-scale shelling today, and then another shelling. Now they can't tell what it is.

"Bang... da da da... chug chug" different gunshots rang out, the U.S. military had already entered the front line, the power of automatic weapons was fully exerted, "continue to attack and move forward." The troops of the first three divisions had no other tasks, just As the attack moved forward, they were like ducks in water in the trenches. A grenade was followed by a Gibson submachine gun to open the way. Under the cover of automatic weapons alternately, they were invincible.

At the same time, behind the German defense line, a fleet suddenly appeared on the coast of the North Sea, followed by shelling, but it seemed that nothing was shelled, and the landing craft began to move towards the coastline continuously.

This is the marine brigade trained by Wesley himself. The four brigades are deployed one brigade at a time for landing. Their position is behind the German army. This is Wesley's trump card. He wants to drive the German army out at once. Belgium, at the same time destroying the enemy's vital forces as much as possible.

The bunker is the scariest because of the presence of machine guns inside. This is a nightmare for infantry. The U.S. military has encountered a large number of bunkers. They found some of them through artillery fire investigation, but there are still many that have not been found. But once the bunker is fired, you will see it. A terrifying weapon flew over with white smoke.

The bazooka instantly became the favorite of the soldiers. There were not many concrete offensives. Most of them were bunkers composed of civil engineering and sandbags.

How could Wesley not pay attention to the bunker? This is the most troublesome problem, and the main function of the bazooka is not to fight tanks, because the tanks of World War I can only respond with "hehe". The US military sent several tanks , which was developed by Ford.

The American 1918 tank, which should have appeared in 1918, appeared ahead of schedule, because Wesley cooperated with them to produce cars, and the power company produced new engines, both gasoline and diesel, so the power of the tank was not a problem.

However, Wesley wasn't too advanced, so Ford's tanks didn't change much. After seeing it, Wesley directly ordered, "Throw it away."

If you need a tank, he won't design it himself?The current conditions are not mature. It doesn’t mean that if you have the technology, you need a large number of industrial workers to learn skillfully. Wesley’s factory workers are undoubtedly the best workers, because they are the first to contact new technologies.
