Chapter 442: Self-cultivation of cannon fodder (II)

Listening to Colonel Robin Hood's words, Andrew couldn't help but be stunned, and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say it after all.

As a new factual war correspondent in the Canadian media industry, I have heard a little about Canada's departure from British rule and its embrace of a more powerful United States.

After all, after the huge attrition of World War II, it was difficult for Britain to maintain the pre-war hegemonic system, let alone Canada, a large country that had obtained absolute autonomy after World War I.

India, known as the crown jewel of the United Kingdom and a colony of the British Empire, officially became independent in 1948.

It was precisely because the declining Britain could no longer provide Canada with the security, economic, and political protection it had in the past, and that it continued to frantically demand from colonial countries such as Canada and Australia, which were under the rule of the British Empire, that the Canadian government decided to abandon the glory of the British Empire and officially throw itself into the arms of the Americans.

But as the saying goes, it's easy to invite God and send God, and it's easy to enter the system of the British Empire, so it's not easy to just pat your ass and quit the group, not to mention that the British still have considerable interests in countries like Canada, how can they just let Canada just leave?

As a result, the newly inaugurated British Labour government, seeing that the imperial system could not be maintained, immediately threw out a so-called "Commonwealth system" in an attempt to firmly control the former colonies with the so-called modern alliance of states.

Canada is naturally opposed to the shameless actions of the British, this is not, buddies are going to withdraw from the group, you are still tied to a dog chain, and you don't let people live.

So the Canadian government was so angry that it simply went straight to Washington to worship the new big brother.

However, out of consideration of global interests, especially in the context of the rise of the Cold War in Europe and the all-out confrontation with the Soviet Union, the United States is even more reluctant to offend Britain too much, so it also turns a blind eye to Canada's request.

Seeing that the Americans have an ambiguous attitude, Canadians who are also descendants of Anglo-Saxon still can't see the meaning of this new leading brother? Isn't it just a letter of nomination that you can get your hands on, just grit your teeth and give it to you.

As a result, the Canadian government changed its attitude of indifference to the Korean War, and quickly recruited 8,000 veterans to form the 25th Canadian Brigade, which was sent to the Korean battlefield in April 1951.

Submit his petition to the American boss with practical actions, and the specific operator is Colonel Robin Hood, the commander of the 25th Brigade, because of this, he will be more belligerent than the armies of other countries, especially after listening to Colonel Wharton's meaningful words, he gave up all complaints, took out a desperate posture with red eyes, and vowed to make this petition beautiful, even if it drained the blood of the entire Canadian 25th Brigade.

It is precisely knowing these behind-the-scenes reasons that Andrew understands that even if he wears out his mouth, it will not help, and in the end he can only sigh helplessly, pick up the camera and quickly press the shutter at the Canadian soldiers who are about to attack.

The more Andrew thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, so he directly used the camera as a gun in his hand, and without informing Colonel Robin Hood, he followed the 22nd Regiment of the Royal Canadian Infantry and attacked towards Neuson Mountain......

Colonel Robin Hood didn't know that Andrew would say goodbye without saying goodbye, and he didn't care where the young war correspondent had gone, and now he was in a state of exhaustion, like a gambler who had lost all his blood, except to keep pressing his own troops, he was going to continue to press again.

As for the ever-increasing casualty figures, Colonel Robin Hood didn't even look at them, just urging the troops to attack, attack and attack.

Under the strict orders of Colonel Robin Hood, the Royal 22nd Regiment of Canada withdrew to both flanks of Princess Patricia's light infantry regiment, and launched an attack under the cover of heavy artillery fire, which did not give the volunteers on the main position of Neutron Hill a chance to breathe.

Thanks to the precise and fierce artillery fire of the US military, the bushes at the foot of Neutron Mountain were blown into a white background by rows of countless shells and napalm, and the butterfly mines arranged in it were naturally all eradicated.

Taking this opportunity, the Royal 22nd Regiment of Canada pressed the last reserve on the spot, and pounced along the middle road, not to mention that the Royal 22nd Regiment of Canada did achieve great results this time, at least the surface position of Neutron Hill they occupied, but before they could gain a firm foothold, the volunteer soldiers hiding in the bunker of the anticline pit started hand-to-hand combat with them with a bright three-edged military thorn.

In the end, it was not surprising that he was killed and retreated!

However, Colonel Robin Hood was not discouraged, and simply reorganized the three infantry regiments under his command with heavy casualties into five battalions, and then divided them into five waves as a battalion to carry out a non-stop wave attack......

This time you can look stupid at the armies of other countries watching the battle, and say in your heart which one is this Canadian army singing? How can they fight harder than the Americans, is this the Korean War of the Americans or the Korean War of the Canadians?

The second monk of the servant country's army was puzzled, but the top brass of the US Eighth Army, who knew the reason very well, knew very well, and the commanders of the US army were satisfied when they watched the Canadian army continue to attack like a tide, because they clearly felt that the defense line of the volunteer army on the main position of Neutron Hill had begun to show signs of loosening under such a wave attack by the Canadian army.

In other words, as long as the Canadian army continues this kind of offensive at any cost for a period of time, Neutron Mountain will inevitably be taken by them, but the question is how long can the Canadian army continue with more and more casualties?

"Order Wharton, hand over the capital division of the Korean army to Robin Hood!"

This problem was completely resolved with an order from Lieutenant General Van Vliet, commander of the Eighth Army, that if the Canadians were cannon fodder for the US military, then the ROK army was cannon fodder for cannon fodder.

So with Van Vliet's order, Colonel Wharton, who was at the forefront, immediately transferred the South Korean army in his hand to Robin Hood.

At this time, Colonel Robin Hood also arrived and the troops were a little stretched, and when he heard that the capital division of the South Korean army, which was strictly trained by the US army, was assigned to his command and commanded the attack, he did not talk nonsense at the moment, and directly ordered Colonel Bai Shanhua, the commander of the capital division of the South Korean army, to divide the Korean army into several echelons, closely follow the Canadian army, and launch an attack on Zhongzi Mountain......

And at this moment, on the Neutron Mountain, Wu Chen had just gently closed the eyes of a sacrificed soldier who were not blinding, when he heard another burst of artillery fire outside the tunnel, shaking the soil on his body, Wu Chen turned to look at the seven or eight soldiers behind him who had already been injured, and gritted his steel teeth: "All of them, ready to fight!" ”
