The German attack to the north of the city was repelled again.
After Sokov heard the news, he was relieved and began to think about how to quickly defeat this enemy, lest they stick to the north of the city like dog-skin plaster.
"Comrade Commander," Vitkov suggested to Sokov, "I think we should let Colonel Bely's tank brigade attack from the enemy's flank and beat them severely, so that the enemy can be driven from the north of the city.
Drive away."
"Comrade Chief of Staff, why don't I want to drive away these enemies as soon as possible." Sokov replied with a wry smile: "But if we really send a tank brigade to attack from the flank, I am afraid that our strength will be exposed. Then we will face
It is no longer an attack by one enemy division, but maybe a siege by two or even three divisions."
"Even if they have two or three divisions, what's the big deal." Vitkov said carelessly: "You know, I have four infantry divisions now."
Seeing that Vitkov was so optimistic, Sokov could not help but sigh softly and said: "Comrade Chief of Staff, if the tank brigade and artillery division assigned to us by our superiors arrive, maybe we can use your method to attack the German army from the flanks.
Attack them, beat them up, and drive them away from the north side of the city.
But have you ever thought about it, even if our troops want to wait. But the German army is a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles and has rich combat experience, while most of our soldiers are untrained recruits. Once a fight starts, do you think we
Can you stop them?"
"However, we cannot let the enemy stay in the north of the city like this." Vitkov reminded Sokov: "If we launch an attack from the west or south at this moment, I am worried that Sivakov's division will become isolated and helpless.
There is no way to escape the fate of the entire army being destroyed."
"Don't worry, Comrade Chief of Staff." Sokov comforted Vitkov and said: "Since we do not have air superiority, we will be very passive whether it is offensive or defensive. After the day's battle, these enemies who have come from afar must be very tired.
, we can wait until the dead of night before attacking them, so that we can win at a very small cost."
"Night sneak attack?" Vitkov seemed not optimistic about Sokov's plan at all: "Comrade Commander, even if the German army becomes exhausted after the fierce battle during the day, if we want to carry out a sneak attack against them, I think it will be successful.
The probability is not too high. Maybe our sneak attack will turn into a strong attack. As you said, most of the soldiers in our army are new recruits who have just joined the army. Regardless of their technical and tactical level,
They are also very lacking in combat experience. If we let them participate in a night attack rashly, they may suffer big losses."
"Don't worry, I won't let those new recruits take risks." Sokov turned to Sidorin and said: "Lieutenant Colonel Sidorin, you immediately recruit suitable candidates from the 41st Guards Division to carry new rockets.
Sneak close to the area where the enemy is camping and attack them with rockets."
"Comrade Commander," Sidorin asked respectfully, "I would like to ask, how many rockets do you think is appropriate to carry?"
Sidorin asked this question very skillfully. He did not ask Sokov how many people he planned to send to carry out this night attack mission, but cleverly asked how many new rockets he would need to carry, so that Sokov could calculate
How many people do you plan to send?
"After the Battle of Stalingrad, our superiors brought us a lot of new rockets." Sokov naturally understood the purpose of Sidorin's question, so he replied: "I think I only brought sixty rockets."
, these rockets are enough for the Germans to drink a pot."
"Don't worry, comrade division commander." After Sidorin confirmed the number of rockets and silently calculated the number of people who should be dispatched, he assured Sokov: "Even if our attack cannot severely damage the German army, it can still
Their officers and soldiers will not be energetic when they attack tomorrow."
"Yes, tonight's night attack is just a harassment of the German army. Its purpose is to disrupt their original attack plan so that our army can seize the time to consolidate and improve the fortifications."
After dark, a small team of 100 people, carrying a large number of new rockets, headed towards the German camp in the distance. They had already figured out the specific location of the German camp through scouts and waited for the Germans to arrive.
While sleeping, you can use rockets to cover the area with intensive firepower to eliminate as many enemies as possible.
For safety reasons, the German army arranged their campsite 20 kilometers away from the Soviet front line. According to their thinking, with the two armies so far apart, the Soviet army would definitely feel that a long-distance attack was not cost-effective and choose to give up. In this way, they would
You can sleep peacefully in the campsite.
The German commander was a cautious man. Not only did he set up strict sentries in important areas, but he also had more than a dozen patrol teams patrolling the camp with military dogs. Not to mention the Soviet scouts, even if there were
Even if a rabbit runs in, it will be discovered in a short time.
But what the German commander did not expect was that in the middle of the night, dozens of objects with long flaming tails suddenly flew over from a distance and landed in a camp full of tents. The sky above the camp was as bright as day.
It suddenly lit up, and huge flames and explosions turned the entire camp into a sea of flames.
After the German division commander was awakened by the explosion, he looked at the officers rushing in in panic and asked: "What's going on? What is going on? Did the Russian guerrillas blow up our arms?"
"Your Excellency, Division Commander." The officer who rushed in reported in a panic: "It's a rocket, it's a Russian rocket that attacked our camp. We don't know if they will continue to attack. For your safety, please
Follow us and move immediately." After saying that, the officer called two soldiers in, picked up the division commander who was still wearing pajamas, and dragged him outside the tent. They wanted to leave this place of death before the second wave of Soviet attacks.
"Damn Russians." The German division commander was called by two soldiers. As he staggered out and ran out, he kept cursing: "You don't dare to compete with me face to face, you only dare to do these little tricks of sneak attacks.
When I catch you, I will hang you all."
A loyal German driver drove a barrel truck over. He opened the door and shouted at the embarrassed division commander: "Your Excellency, division commander, get in the car quickly and I will take you out of here."
The two soldiers carrying the division commander quickly came to the front of the car, hurriedly stuffed the division commander in, and then closed the door. The two men hung on the doors on both sides, and then slapped the top of the barrel truck hard, repeatedly.
Shouting: "Hurry up, drive up quickly, otherwise when the Russian shells come over, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."
