Just as Liszt was anxiously waiting for some good news from his defense line, a German soldier raised his hands in front of the Soviet Red Army. His eyes were full of horror and he put weapons with him. There were also several young Germans whose reinforcements had just arrived in the eastern front, but they had experienced such a terrible nightmare.
Not far away, a Soviet Red Army soldier climbed a concrete bunker, shouting Ula and waving the red flag in his hand. More Soviet soldiers rushed to the German trench. They jumped into the trench and scuffled with the German soldiers, and then more Soviet soldiers were rushed from behind and drowned in the sea.
"bang!" German soldiers aimed at the Soviet flag bearer who held high the red flag. The red flag accurately broke the other side’s head, but it didn’t fall. Because more Soviet soldiers climbed the bunker and held the swaying flag, they cheered and more German soldiers raised their hands and accepted their defeat.
A hidden bunker was defended here. A German teacher heard the approaching guns and the constant screams of German soldiers. He looked at the ground and burned the divisional flag and some confidential documents, then shook his head and picked up the small and exquisite pistol on the table.
"chug! Chug! " The guard gun outside the door has already sounded, which proves that the Soviets have rushed to a fairly close position, and a bullet has penetrated the door and left a light hole.
The German teacher gave a wry smile, then stuffed the pistol muzzle into his mouth, hesitated for a while, and finally pulled the trigger. The bullet splashed on the wall with blood, and the map of the defense zone was dyed red, which marked the defense zone of the German division.
Chapter 713 714 The weather
"We have a firm belief than our enemies! This allows us to endure more heavy losses than the enemy. "rokossovsky’s hand was dyed red with blood on his back. In front of the German map, he said in a calm tone that his troops captured this German tightly defended position more than half an hour ago, but they paid a heavy price for a full 20,000 soldiers.
The positions near the two sides fought repeatedly, and finally the Soviet Red Army won the biggest victory in the war. They captured almost three German soldiers and seized four 15 mm heavy guns, four 15 mm cannons and two 75 mm anti-tank guns and other weapons.
The military orchestra has not yet cleared the smoke, set up its own equipment, and then faced each other, exhausted but still moving on. The soldiers played and sang. If arcado came here, he would hear a familiar melody and a very familiar song.
"Every time pear blossoms spread all over Tianya River, soft veils and Katyusha’s pretty songs seem to charm the spring scenery." A group of Soviet female college students lined up in a neat queue at the edge of the trench to sing this just-written love song to the Soviet Red Army, which was first sung in the Soviet army on New Year’s Day on January 1, 1939. It was immediately sung as one of the most popular songs of the Soviet Red Army.
Rokossovsky is very satisfied with the current attack speed of his guards. The Soviet meteorological department predicts that the bad weather will last for about one day, which is a very favorable condition for the Soviet Red Army to attack Kiev. After all, their army is no match for the German army.
"This land of ours has been born for thousands of years. This is our advantage! We know it’s cold here, we know the snowfall here, and I feel the cold wind pouring into my neck. I knew this terrible snowfall would last for a few days, "he said confidently to his assistant." But our opponents obviously underestimated the bad weather in the Soviet Union. "
Even with more preparations, the Germans can barely make winter come without affecting their combat operations, while the Soviets can benefit from this bad weather. They know that if these strange climates are made, this is the extension of geographical conditions, and this is the terrible thing about soil superiority.
Although Korosovsky has taken advantage of it, his heart was shocked by the tenacity and strength of the Germans. He carefully prepared to attack the German defense line, and now he has broken through the German defense line. The attack difficulty far exceeds his plan. He still doesn’t know how many such difficult opponents the Germans have.
He lost two divisions and knocked out a German infantry division at the cost. Although he won the biggest victory in the war, he knew that this exchange was not enough to win, and advocated that the Soviet Red Army must invest more troops to completely tear apart the German defense line and make greater sacrifices.
Rokossovsky walked out of this bunker, which used to be the headquarters of the German front line, and felt the cold wind blowing his face. "Liszt … this German general is really a tough opponent. He hasn’t given up his position yet. What are you waiting for? Waiting for the distant guderian? Or wait for that there’s nothing wrong with Kruger? "
The news from the other direction is not very reassuring. guderian troops have captured a large area of Soviet territory like a race. The G regiment, the most powerful armored regiment of the German army, has cut into Kharkov Donetsk, where Timoshenko is now in charge, and he can judge whether the Germans want to go north or south.
There is nothing hard to remember that there is still a mediocre general on the flank of Liszt. This first-line general of the empire, who relied on arcado’s advice, still looks like a warm-hearted man. Even the Soviet Red Army opposite him can breathe a sigh of relief. He is simply a wartime peace ambassador
"Send a telegram to General zhukov to assure him that our troops will attack Kalinkovitch before noon in Japan and China." As he walked, he was cleared up, but his face was still covered with blood, and he ordered the deputy followed by him, "Make the army speed up its attack! When the colonel charges, he must personally array! If the division commander can’t capture the target on time, he will execute the military law immediately without interrogation! "
At this moment, Liszt is frowning at the battle in front of him. The map shows that two of his divisions have been defeated by the Soviet Red Army, and another division has been completely annihilated. An hour ago, he just sent a report on the total destruction of this division to the General Staff.
The E regiment is gradually going to destroy the Liszt area. He has even compiled all the troops stationed in the rear into combat troops. These new recruits with rifles have been incorporated into the front line and supplemented to several divisions that suffered heavy losses. However, the whole E regiment is still unable to make ends meet, and the serious attrition has reached an outrageous level.
Each division of this regiment has lost more than 5% of its staff, some as high as 20%. Two divisions have lost more than half, and one has been destroyed. This does not include the ammunition and material losses consumed by the front line, which has reached a level that the Germans have never seen before.
"Rinrin bell!" Words suddenly sounded Liszt grabbed the words and arcado sounded "Good afternoon, General Liszt, I’m arcado? Rudolph "
"Hua!" Liszt quickly stood right and then respectfully replied, "arcado, the great head of state? Long live Rudolf! My Fuhrer! What can I do for you? "
"Very simple! I just heard the loss report of the E regiment. I think it is necessary for me to call you personally. I want to know if I am sure that I will hold my ground for one day? " Arcado sounds from headphones. Obviously, he must also be worried about how much the war situation in northern Kiev will deteriorate.
"My head of state! I can guarantee that our troops will continue to hold on for another day, even for 11 days if necessary, but if the reinforcements nearby don’t move forward now, can they arrive on time in this bad weather and the reinforcements have already defeated the E regiment? "Liszt said with anxiety," I’m afraid you will lose the whole E regiment, even Kiev behind the E regiment. "
There was a silence in arcado for a while. Was Liszt’s words dropped? Then he said slowly, "I have a way to reinforce you with 20,000 people a day, and it is well-trained and elite, but this unit will appear in Kiev instead of anywhere else. You just have to continue to retreat back bit by bit as planned."
"Try to protect their own strength and then wait for the moment of victory to come! Victory will surely belong to the Third Reich! " Arcado said this sentence and hung up.
"I really want to know if I can’t stop my opponent’s attack, then there is no place for us to prepare for the future … At this time, the Fuehrer personally called me to stick to this direction for one day." Let go, Liszt once again turned his eyes away from those already chaotic maps and muttered to himself, "What’s the point of insisting that there is no follow-up support preparation here?"
Arcado called Liszt and told him to hold on for a day. Liszt was a little sure, but he hasn’t been reinforced yet, and there is no news about the actions of several regiments. This made him very worried. He was worried that his regiment would bear unbearable losses and that his defeat would make the situation in the whole southern region out of control
"Let the rotation of five divisions in the front! Don’t reserve ammunition! Give me a hard fight on the last line of defense! Then give up Kalinkovic and retreat to Ovrucci! " Called his chief of staff and some nearby commanders and teachers Liszt reached an order according to arcado’s request. He is going to move his defense line to Korosjian, Marin and ivankov, so that the E regiment can have two days less rest and let Liszt arrange his defense line from these cities.
"Let those supplementary soldiers look at prisoners of war to build new lines of defense! When I give you a day, these places must be built enough for us to stick to the three-day defense line! " Liszt pointed to these cities and said to his hands
So a large-scale retreat, the Germans gave up their two-day defense and retreated to Kalinkovitch behind them. Their guards came to pester the three divisions of the Soviet Red Army and fought a cruel encounter. Li gave up Kalinkovitch, an important city.
The northern front line of the Soviet Red Army played triumphantly all the way. It seems that Kiev has already led their troops. rokossovsky ordered to continue the attack, ignoring the breakdown of the road, and was abandoned. Two tanks of various types, 34 tanks and kv1 tanks, occupied Kalinkovic, and the Soviet Red Army continued to rush south to their new target-Ovruzzi.
Chapter 714 715 A group of idiots plan
In the telescope, one shell after another landed in the distant highlands, and a piece of black soil was set off. The German Crimean Peninsula put in a large number of cannons with wonderful caliber, including large-caliber cannons from the Belgian army and railway cannons from France. These cannons exploded into huge craters one after another, and the rumbling noise devastated the Soviet defenders here.
In fact, the Red Army of the Soviet Union in Crimea was not only tested by the continuous artillery fire of the German army, but also destroyed by the cold. Although the temperature here is warmer than that in northern Ukraine, it is New Year’s Day after all, and the wind is still chilly here.
But because Khrushchev and voroshilov paid tribute to their troops in the Crimea region, Stalin in Moscow didn’t give them the Soviet Red Army winter cotton, so these Soviet Red Army had to find a way to cope with the cold winter by themselves-most of these Soviet Red Army people huddled in thin clothes and listened to the rumbling guns overhead.
"General what heads of state to attack this broken place in such a hurry? Just those Soviet wrecks that can’t go to sea? " Meinster, a famous school, asked with a frown behind him, "You know, if we have Liszt, it will be more beneficial to the war."
Manstein heard the people behind him complain that he straightened up from behind the cannon mirror. He turned around and smiled and patted the man on the shoulder and said, "You are Marshal Brauchich. He sent you to me to let me teach you what I know. I heard that you graduated from the Imperial College and were educated by those old fogies."
As he spoke, he walked back to the trench to set up a table, which was not the same as his general war headquarters. This table was covered with a clean lunch tablecloth instead of a messy war map, which made this semi-submersible front headquarters look very emotional and the whole room was clean enough to make people think it was a holiday cabin in the forest.
Unlike other generals, Meinster has his own unique command habit. He likes to prepare the plan as detailed as possible before the battle, draw up the attack sequence and direction, and then after the battle, he is not very focused on completing his plans-those plans are all natural to him and he does not supervise them himself.
He dressed decently, cleaned up loyalist, even his boots, and was sloppy. Rommel and guderian, the front line of the perennial troops, compared with Meinster, were like a gentle noble gentleman.
With the explosion of rumbling shells, he went to the table and sat in the comfortable chair. Because of the explosion of large-caliber shells in the distance, the table trembled slightly, making the porcelain cups make a slight collision sound, which was very nice.
Brauchir Meinster, with his eyes still fixed on the ground shells not far away, thought that if these shells could support Liszt’s E regiment, such heavy losses would not have occurred in the northern front. However, a Tongke aristocrat did not interrupt Meinster, who was quietly waiting for the commander-in-chief of the regiment to express his thoughts with his hands behind his back.
"The whole plan of the Eastern Front War was attacked from half a year ago. This appearance is that I and your father, the great head of state, plus the staff of the High Command and the generals of the General Staff, worked out the plan of the war together." Meinster picked up the table, placed a cup of coffee, gently stirred the spoon for two times and then blew it. "You don’t think this is an idiot plan that a group of idiots get together, do you?"
He looked at Brauchichel, and his eyes were full of teasing. Without waiting for the other party to speak, he continued, "We can continue to attack in March and April-even if we don’t attack forward, it is absolutely easy to take Timoshenko’s hand. Don’t you think about it? Why did we play a prominent wedge in the south but let the northern front line go? The Soviet Union and Hou Jun continue to control the rich Belarusian region?"
"…" Brauchichel was one leng, then suddenly realized that he was worried about the current war situation but forgot to analyze the root cause of this war situation-what was the reason why the Germans could continue to attack Belarus in April but left this land to the fragile Soviet Red Army at that time?
Seeing this officer seems to have realized something. Meinster laughed, took a sip of coffee and nodded. He continued, "We have set a huge trap in Belarus waiting for the Soviets to get in. Now I need to concentrate on attacking the Crimea, right?"
Russia’s territory is very vast. If you don’t know how vast this land is, when you first come here, you will be frightened by that terrible feeling. How vast is this territory? The vast Ukrainian plain is covered with dark clouds and snowflakes, but the Crimean peninsula is sunny than even a few clouds.
