Is Italy in World War II a joke?

Italy is a country of gentlemen, whether it is romance or making pasta, they are all superior. Of course, they also have money to make weapons. For example, the second battalion commander's Italian cannon made a huge contribution to Li Yunlong's war of resistance. However, in international wars, they don't seem to be so serious.

In line with the purpose of "funny, we are serious", Italy actively participated in various international wars. With its sophisticated equipment, Italy participated in World War I and World War II. However, in World War I, Germany was Dominated by Italy, the attitude of Italy was completely soy sauce, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire was later destroyed.

When participating in the Eight-Nation Allied Forces' war of aggression against China, Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire sent a hundred people, specifically to take advantage. During World War II, Japan joined the Axis Powers, and Italy became the most embarrassing country among the Axis Powers. Since then, Italy has not left any bright spots in its war tactics, but it has left many jokes that are difficult to distinguish between true and false.

There is a joke about Italian prisoners of war. Once, an Italian prisoner of war went to help other people repair their houses. However, he came back late, and the guard at the door said directly to him: "Why come back so late? Don't come back so late next time!"

Defense of Stalingrad on December 16, 1942 The superior Soviet army stormed to the periphery. After the Romanian and Hungarian defense lines were destroyed, the Italian army began to retreat in the face of an enemy force four times its size! It took a whole month of hard work to break out of the "pocket" of the Don River, and then arrived at Death Valley (probably the name the Italians themselves said) and encountered the Soviet army in the encirclement for the first time, because the Italian army had a major problem with supplies. And Germany's own troops are still not supplied enough, causing a serious shortage of ammunition for the Italian army! In the end, the forward force of the expeditionary force, the "Turin" Infantry Division, rushed into the enemy stronghold and fought hand-to-hand with no regard for their own safety. Finally, a gap was opened in Chertkovo. A total of 26,000 people were lost until the encirclement was withdrawn!

Besides these, do you know about Gubi Well twice? Do you know the San Marco Naval Infantry Battalion in Tobruk? Do you know the combat engineers who are at the forefront? Do you know the "Ram" armored division that fought to the end? Do you know about the epic rearguard battle of the "Fogrel" Parachute Division? Did you know that a sniper threw his severed arm at an oncoming British tank after running out of ammunition? Rommel said, "German soldiers shocked the world, and Italian snipers shocked German soldiers."
