Chapter 1089 The Battle of Moscow (Part 2)(1/2)
ps: Two chapters are sent in one chapter...
"Chirky chirp...boom!boom!boom..." Outside Moscow City, the sky was gradually getting dark. Tukhachevsky looked at his position with a pale face, unable to tell whether it was a glory or a happy person in his heart.
regret.
The German army launched an attack on the position at 5 a.m., and four large-caliber train guns launched continuous artillery on the position. When the visibility was slightly higher, their bombers were also dispatched under the escort of fighters.
A large number of mace-type heavy bombs kept bombarding the positions, and together with the train gun shells, created a sea of blood on the Soviet positions. It was impossible for the Soviet army on the positions to block the German giant cannon with flesh and blood.
The subsequent bombing caused the Soviet army to fall into a flaming flame of steel. Although a large number of Allied fighter jets rushed to the battlefield, trying to stop the German bombing.
But these fighters were almost entangled by German fighters, and their blocking power for bombers was really limited. Unless they were willing to give up their safety and pursue the German bombers regardless of life and death.
But this is obviously impossible, otherwise they would have been shot down by German fighters before they could shoot down the German bomber. Therefore, they could only cheer up and deal with these German fighters first.
Such an option caused the Soviet troops on the ground positions to be devastatingly hit by the German army. The bombardment of large-caliber train cannons and the bombing of mace-type heavy bombs caused the Soviet troops on the ground positions to fall into the flames of steel.
middle.
Countless Soviet soldiers had no place to hide, and were directly bombarded by violent explosions into bloody flesh and blood. The broken corpses and internal organs, military uniforms and gun parts splattered around the position.
The dust and smoke from the explosion almost covered the sunlight that had just been exposed.
The blood and smell of gunpowder that filled the air was mad. Tukhachevsky had no choice but to do anything about the current situation on the position, and the German offensive was too strong.
At this time, Tukhachevsky was a little lucky. If he had not asked the British and American allied forces to withdraw from the position together, then the main forces of the Allied forces might have been trapped on the position, and they could only be bombed by the German army.
and shelling.
But at the same time, he regretted it. If the US and British troops were not allowed to withdraw, the Soviet army would at least reduce the losses now. At least it would not be like this now. All positions were Soviet troops.
Looking at the position full of smoke, Tukhachevsky had already guessed that the Germans had invested a lot. They must have planned to take this position together today.
Otherwise, they would not have spent such a huge price to attack. Tukhachevsky could have guessed that manufacturing was difficult and extremely expensive.
It is obvious that the German army is going to launch a general attack by transporting such bombs to the front line and investing so much in one go.
After the rumbling cannons and explosions gradually dissipated after nearly two hours of resounding, Tukhachevsky came to his senses and said to the adjutant: "Let the reserve team enter the position!"
"Comrade Tukhachevsky, is our reserve team going to enter the position now?! Is it too early?!" Chief of Staff Yevgeny asked Tukhachevsky with some hesitation.
"Comrade Yevgeny, it's not too late. If you don't send the reserve team to you, maybe the position will not belong to us in a while..." Tukhachevsky said with a wry smile: "Even if it's sent, I don't have much. I'm not much."
How long will it take for us to grasp the position?”
The Soviet reserve team was soon sent to the position, and there was almost no living person on the Soviet position. Most of the Soviet soldiers who were not hit by bombing and artillery shells were killed in this crazy explosion.
He was shocked to death.
The Soviet soldiers who rushed to the position could see some complete corpses from time to time. However, all of these corpses were bleeding from seven holes.
The power of the German large-caliber heavy artillery and heavy bombs is unquestionable. Even if these explosions do not hit you head-on, the huge shock wave just needs to explode beside you, which is enough to be fatal.
On the Soviet positions after the shelling, there was no sound or scream.
After the violent explosion, the position was left with a dead silence. The Soviet reserve teams who stepped onto the position even felt a little chill in their hearts when they looked at the tragic situation of the position.
In the soft soil on the position, broken internal organs, corpses, fingers or toes may be stepped on at any time. Even some skulls with hair are exposed to the position.
Splashing brain tissue or internal organs can be seen everywhere. From time to time, some complete corpses will be found in the floating soil, but they all die of bleeding from the seven orifices...
"Kerala..." At this moment, the sound of tank tracks came from the position. After the German army carried out artillery and bombing, they began to use tanks to carry out breakthrough operations on the Soviet positions.
"Press up the floating soil! Collect the bodies and build them into fortifications! Quickly!!" The Soviet officer reacted quickly and ordered to the Soviet soldiers.
Most of these soldiers have experienced actual combat, and although they are a little uncomfortable with building up the bodies of their comrades into fortifications, they have not refuted them.
People are dead. So how to make other people survive is the most important thing.
Before the German tanks arrived, the Soviet army quickly piled up all the complete bodies found on the position and built them into simple fortifications.
But they also knew that such fortifications could not stop the German army's attack at all, and in the end they might have to become part of this position like their comrades on the position.
Some of the Soviet soldiers silently placed explosives on their bodies without the instructions of the officers. They were suicide squads. When the German tanks approached, they would detonate the explosives on their bodies to blow up the German tanks.
To assist our troops in defensive positions, there is no way to do so. Most of the Soviet tanks have been consumed in previous battles.
Although it caused certain casualties to the German army, it did not cause a fatal blow to the German army. The tanks provided by the United States are still on the way to transport them.
Without tank assistance, the Soviet army could only rely on human lives to offset the German armor advantage.
"TuTuTuTuTuTu..." The German tanks approached. They opened their heavy machine guns from the beginning and began to shoot at the Soviet fortifications.
The heavy machine gun bullet penetrated the corpses and rushed towards the Soviet soldiers behind them.
But these Soviet soldiers did not stand up and fight back, but continued to lie on the position. This was not the first time they had fought with the Germans. They knew that standing up now would be useless to have to die.
"Quick! Seize the favorable terrain and don't give the Slavs a chance to retreat!!" This was not the first time the German army has dealt with the Soviet army. They are very clear about the Soviet army's combat methods.
So they brought all the light and heavy machine guns up and then occupied a favorable position as soon as possible to implement fire control on the position. They tried to reduce the threat from the Soviet army to tanks in this way.
"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." In order to prevent the Soviet army from hiding under the corpse and detonating explosives, the German tanks directly used their own artillery fire to clean up the corpses of the Soviet army.
The Soviet army on the position looked at this scene with a pale face, and they knew that this was inevitable. So they did not leave anyone there.
The Soviet soldiers who used floating soil to bury themselves shallowly with explosives tied with explosives were breathing under the floating soil and staring at them waiting for the opportunity. As long as the German tanks pressed over, they would detonate the explosives on their bodies without hesitation.
"Dadadada...Dadatu..." The German soldiers who occupied favorable terrain began to test firepower in suspicious locations. Unfortunately, no one responded to them.
Both sides had a deep understanding of each other, and the Soviet army knew that the Germans would never let go of some suspicious areas. So they did not ambush in those places at all.
"Kerala..." After a series of temptations, the German tanks finally began to attack the Soviet positions under the cover of infantry.
The tracks quickly crushed the Soviet army's positions, but they still did not encounter resistance at this time. But the more they were like this, the more nervous the German army became.
No one would be stupid enough to think that the Soviets would not do any defense here. No German soldiers would think that the bombardment and shelling just now had wiped out or defeated the Allies here.
This kind of thing has been proven impossible during these times of war. The Allies could not give up this position so easily unless they could no longer support the position to maintain it.
When the German tanks were crushed to the position about 30 meters, the Soviet army finally launched a counterattack against the German army!
"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." The first one was the Soviet army hidden in the floating soil. After hearing the explosion signal, they detonated the explosives on their bodies without hesitation.
Suddenly, the entire position flew everywhere! The Soviet army that detonated the explosives turned into flesh and blood in an instant. The four German tanks were bombed on the spot.
The Soviet army was very good at grasping the timing. When the German tanks and infantry stepped into the position, they launched a counterattack. In the smoke of gunpowder, the German army could not distinguish the position of the Soviet army at all.
In order to avoid injuring one's own personnel, their heavy firepower had to stop shooting. The Soviet army took this opportunity to let a group of suicide squads rush towards the German tanks with explosives tied to them.
"Boom boom boom..." The explosions sounded one after another, and only two of the more than ten tanks that the German army rushed to the position were withdrawn from the position in panic. The rest were destroyed or paralyzed by the Soviet army.
"Shoot! Quick! Quick!!" The German commander roared wildly, and the machine guns arranged on the positions began to roar. The Soviet army behind the smoke could not dodge and was swept by the rain of bullets.
"Tutu...dadada..." The gunshots on the position suddenly sounded, and the Soviet army could not bear to be outdone. The Soviet soldiers on the position quickly lay down and then began to follow the German ballistics.
Launch a counterattack.
Other Soviet troops followed the cover of gunpowder and began to touch the location of the German firepower point.
The two sides fought back and forth, killing a group on the position. At this time, the German support troops had already arrived on the position and began to assist their troops in strengthening their firepower and trying to break through the position.
"Ula~~" The Soviet troops who deviated from the flank to the Germans suddenly roared at these German troops that were supporting them.
Being caught off guard, the German army started in a hurry when the Soviet army entered the most tragic hand-to-hand combat in the positional war.
At this time, the smoke of gunpowder gradually dissipated. The Soviet troops, who were originally on the position, rushed out and joined the hand-to-hand combat. The two sides were fighting fiercely on the position, and they all knew that they could no longer retreat from the position at this time.
.
Once they retreat, the entire formation will collapse. The German army received a death order and must occupy this position. The Soviet army knew that if they retreated here, then there would be no doubt Tuhachevs
Ki will definitely shoot them.
The Soviet and German armies, which had no retreat, just strangled on the position. At this time, we can see that the benefits of the engineer shovels owned by the Soviet army came.
The engineer shovel that was thrown away could be directly regarded as a melee weapon. The sharp shovel blades and comfortable grips gave the Soviet army an advantage in fighting.
In particular, the Soviets also learned engineer shoveling from the Americans, which was the most deadly for the German army. Those engineer shovelings were sorted out by later generations and were specially used for hand-to-hand combat exercises.
Now, this kind of exercise has been achieved in the German army. To be honest, the effect is really good. The Soviet army, who had learned the engineering shoveling exercises, easily blocked the German bayonet and then slashed, sprinted, swept... etc.
Whenever you move, you will directly kill the Germans who are fighting with him in hand-to-hand combat.
"Puff...crack..." During the hand-to-hand combat, the sound of bones shattering and flesh cutting continued to sound. The Germans screamed and were killed by the Soviet army retreated step by step.
A large number of German soldiers were either cut off their heads or pierced through their abdomen. They either had their hands cut off or had their thighs hit by a shovel.
The Soviet army was actually not feeling well. The German army opened a bloodletting groove on its bayonet. Basically, once it was stabbed, blood would continue to gush out. In a few seconds, the whole person would lose his strength and collapse...
"Ula~~" The Soviet army's roar sounded on the position, and the reinforcements were constantly coming. The Soviets knew very well. If the Germans were not held back and waited for them to retreat, the Soviet army would come again.
German shelling and bombing.
Only when both sides are in a stalemate will these German weapons lose their due power.
"Long live Germany!!" There was a roar coming from the German army, and their reinforcements also arrived. The German army also knew that the Soviet army would not give up this rare opportunity to fight close-range with them.
If the troops retreat, the Soviet army will likely take advantage of the situation and directly attack the German positions. Instead of doing so, it is better to let the troops reinforce the positions and attack the Soviet army in one go.
"Comrade Tukhachevsky! All our reserve teams have been sent out. All three positions have been trapped in hand-to-hand combat. I am worried that if we continue to fight like this, our soldiers will not be able to maintain their positions even if they are all sacrificed..."
Yevgeny looked at Tukhachevskiy worriedly, and he had observed the situation on the position. The German army now had a huge offensive advantage.
Moreover, the number of Soviet troops on the positions is limited. After experiencing the crazy artillery attacks by the Germans, almost all the Soviet troops on the front positions have been lost.
