The rumble of artillery resounded throughout the land, and the diffuse smoke shrouded this large city covering an area of 1,081 square kilometers. It has been two months since the German army surrounded this city. 1.8 million German troops and
The 1.25 million Soviet troops were bleeding like rivers on this land. Under the leadership of Zhukov, the Soviet troops resisted desperately. Although the Germans had exhausted all their strength, they still had not broken through the Soviet peripheral defenses.
.
"Buzz buzz"
A low roar came from the clouds, and a group of more than a hundred black B17 heavy bombers appeared over the Soviet position. They quickly lowered to an altitude of three thousand meters, amidst bursts of sharp whistling sounds.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of bombs fell on the Soviet positions. Looking down from a high altitude, only red fireballs appeared on the snow-white plains. The roaring explosions came one after another like the roar of death, harvesting wantonly.
human life.
The Soviet troops on the ground were not to be outdone. Anti-aircraft artillery of various calibers also lost their camouflage and poured fury into the sky. Balls of cyan or black smoke exploded in the air, like festival fireworks blooming in the sky.
But if any plane happens to be within the explosion range of the fireworks, the rapidly splashing shrapnel will quickly penetrate into the fuselage of the plane, cut through the body of the plane, and kill its members. Then the seemingly majestic aircraft will
The plane will fall to the ground with black smoke, or even explode in the air.
In an observation post more than 20 kilometers outside the Soviet position, the commander of the Second Group, General Guderian, put down his telescope and said with some regret to General Hoppner, the commander of the Fourth Group beside him: "If we
It would be nice to have more heavy bombers. As long as we can gather 300 heavy bombers, we can carry out uninterrupted coverage bombing. Then the tank group will rush like this, and it will become easy to capture the Soviet positions.
too much."
Admiral Hoppner sighed and smiled bitterly: "Heinz, these planes in the sky are already all our heavy bombers. Ever since our government and the Chinese government turned against each other, the Chinese government has cut off trade with us.
Since then, this heavy bomber has naturally stopped exporting to us. Now even the supply of spare parts for this aircraft is very tight. You can't expect these heavy bombers to help us clear the Soviet positions in the future."
"Alas" Guderian also sighed heavily. Although the lower-level officers and soldiers of the German army don't know that the relationship between their country's government and China has begun to become tense, they can't hide it from senior generals like Guderian. It's just them.
Although I am very dissatisfied with this strategy of my country's government, there is nothing I can do about it. After all, this is no longer the business of soldiers like them.
"Then can't we build these heavy bombers ourselves? Let our engineers imitate these bombers and imitate them soon." Guderian thought for a while but was still a little unwilling. The power of these heavy bombers is really nothing to say.
With hundreds of tons of bombs dropped like this, no matter how strong the enemy's position is, it will fall apart. It would be really unacceptable if it was just gone.
"Heinz, your thinking is still too simple." Hoppner said with a wry smile: "We have the ability to manufacture this heavy bomber, but the production and construction of a heavy bomber is not that simple. Just talk about this heavy bomber.
The factory building and production line of the bomber are different from those of our original dive bomber. Everything has to be redone. In addition, the manufacturing and debugging of the production line cannot be solved in a year and a half. Besides, it’s not like you don’t know Ge.
Marshal Lin has always had a consistent attitude towards the Chinese government. If you want him to agree to imitate Chinese aircraft, it is simply impossible."
Having said this, Guderian remained silent. The fat man who claimed that everything that could fly in Germany was under his control had always been hostile to the Chinese government. Although under pressure from Hitler, his air force was equipped with Chinese
He was a heavy bomber, but now he was asked to shamelessly imitate and produce this bomber invented by the Chinese people who he had always looked down on. He really couldn't lose face.
"This Göring really succeeds more than fails." Guderian could only curse angrily in his heart at this moment.
"Comrade Zhukov, how is the fighting outside Moscow going now?" A gloomy voice floated in the empty space in the spacious office.
Zhukov's face was still so calm, and he said calmly: "Don't worry, respected Comrade Stalin, the German offensive has been disintegrated by us, and our outer fortifications can withstand it for at least a week. By then, our inner city fortifications will
The construction can be completed.”
"That's good. We must hold on to the outer positions for another week, so that we can hold on until our reinforcements and supplies arrive. Only then will we have the capital to start street battles with the enemy." Stalin nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Now
The war in Yekaterinburg is not going well. Comrade Sisyat reported that the Chinese occupied Yekaterina Square at noon yesterday, which shows that Yekaterinburg can no longer hold it. In order to prevent the Chinese army from taking the opportunity to march towards Moscow and join forces with the German invaders
, we need to transfer a mobile force of no less than 500,000 people to Kazan. This is to deter the Chinese, and secondly, once the Chinese advance to Moscow, we will not be in a hurry. What do you think?"
Zhukov was a little embarrassed after hearing this, "Comrade Stalin, most of our troops are now trapped in Moscow, Umyanovgrad and Stalingrad. It will be difficult to send 500,000 people there at once."
We can do it.”
"We have to do it even if we can't do it. If the Chinese take the opportunity to attack us westward, it will be too late." Stalin's words contained a hint of irritation. At this time, he was actually in a state of distress. Stalingrad, Moscow
and Umyanovgrad are fighting fiercely with the Germans, and most of the Soviet troops are also contained there. If the Chinese attack westward again, everything will be over.
"Comrade Stalin, I think such worries are unnecessary. If the Chinese really wanted to move westward, they would have called over to join forces with the Germans." Zhukov had to comfort his boss, "The Chinese just want to see
They will not act rashly now that we and the Germans have fought so hard that we both suffered losses and took advantage of the situation."
"No, we cannot put our own safety on the premise that the enemy will not advance westward." Stalin still shook his head and said: "Our own destiny must be in our own hands."
Although he disapproved of these words, Zhukov also knew that Stalin's words still made sense, "As you wish, I will dispatch a troop and rush to Kazan as soon as possible."
"Go ahead, as long as you hold on for another week, everything will be fine when the first heavy snow falls." Stalin's voice still sounded so confident.
"Yes, I'll do it right away"
With the sound of footsteps, the office fell into silence again
Watching the sunset, a warm afterglow shone on the eaves of the Prime Minister's Office, Su Tong, who was walking in the garden, was also thinking about the same thing.
"Have all the winter clothes for the troops been shipped? The millions of troops in Soviet Russia are still wearing autumn clothes. The weather will turn cold soon. We must not let our troops fight in autumn clothes." When I think of Soviet Russia
The horror of winter made Su Tong shiver in his heart. Napoleon and Hitler in history were defeated not so much by the Soviet Russians, but by the Soviet Russian winter and poor traffic conditions.
"Sir, don't worry, 5.5 million sets of winter clothes have been shipped and are guaranteed to be delivered to various battlefields in Soviet Russia within a week. Our soldiers will never be frozen." The speaker was the current Logistics Department of the Chinese National Defense Forces.
Minister Ma Jun, a man unknown both in Chinese military circles and internationally, was walking beside Su Tong.
Su Tong turned his head and looked at the cyborg wearing the rank of general next to him, and felt a sigh of relief in his heart. It had been seven years since he came to this time and space, and he was already in his thirties, but this person's appearance was still the same as before.
There is no change at all. This time millions of troops are on an expedition, and countless supplies have to be transported to Soviet Russia thousands of kilometers away every day. All of these things have to pass through the hands of the Ma Army. If it were not for his
A brain that is as precise and fast as a supercomputer would really make anyone in a hurry.
"By the way, how is the research going at Lop Nur?" After asking about logistical matters, Su Tong asked about the "Sunday Project". These were major events related to the fate of the entire country, so he had no choice but to be cautious.
"The "Yaosui Project" is in progress. So far everything is going well. It is expected that our first atomic bomb will be ready for test explosion by April next year. Since this is the first test explosion, General Zhang and the scientists
Set the power of the first atomic bomb at 500,000 equivalents." Ma Jun was well aware of these matters in charge, and he answered Su Tong's questions without hesitation.
"That's good." Su Tong nodded happily. As long as the atomic bomb is successfully developed, China will be in an invincible position in this largest war in human history.
As for the development of atomic bombs by the Americans and Germans, their development process has been greatly slowed down by Su Tong, who assassinated and kidnapped a group of scientists. It is expected that they can be successfully developed in 48 years.
"Hey little Japan, I will definitely put some big firecrackers on your heads when the time comes." Thinking of the scene of putting those brilliant fireworks on the heads of the Japanese in the future, Su Tong couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.
