Hines suddenly felt an atmosphere of danger, which was a soldier's instinct.
The main building in front of you, and the auxiliary buildings on both sides, form a concave distribution. To others, this may be a beautiful design. But in the eyes of Heins, a top student who graduated from the Munich Military Academy, this
It's a dangerous design.
At this moment, Haines suddenly remembered the analysis of the Battle of the Somme that he had learned. In that battle, the German army annihilated 20,000 British advance troops in one day through crossfire from both wings. Haines suddenly discovered that if
If machine gun positions were also deployed in the annex buildings on both sides at this moment, the consequences would be disastrous!
Just when Haines was about to call a halt to the advancing stormtroopers, a clear gunshot came from the annex building on the right. Along with this gunshot, which sounded extremely harsh to Haines, rows of people
Wehrmacht soldiers wearing black helmets came out of the window of the annex building, raised their guns and fired. In the direction of the main building, I also remembered the loud noise of shotgun shooting. The scene was extremely shocking.
These stormtroopers who had been screened still behaved in great confusion when faced with a sudden attack. Hines's direct brigade was okay, and they could basically fire back. The stormtroopers of the other two brigade
, they dropped their weapons and turned around and ran away. This chaotic rout even broke up the formation of Hines's brigade and disrupted the rhythm of the counterattack.
"Everyone come back and it will be safe if we storm the main building!" Hines tried to stop the runaway flight that was starting to get out of control. He even fired several shots into the sky. Unfortunately, no one could listen to his command. Even his direct subordinates
The brigade, under the attack of the opponent's cross-fire network, also lost its fighting spirit and began to collapse.
Finally, Hines no longer had to stop the deserters. His chest, which was originally brown, had been stained red. He wanted to say something else, but all he got was a lot of blood pouring out of his mouth.
The second before Hines closed his eyes, what he saw was his direct brigade that collapsed when he was shot. There were shouts and gunshots everywhere, and there were no stormtroopers fighting back in front of him.
The remaining people were either running away like crazy, or lying on the cold ground with bleeding wounds just like him.
Everything that happened in the manor was seen by Rom. He originally wanted to give the order to rush in and rescue Hines. However, he swallowed the order that came to his lips. Because Rom saw,
The stormtrooper cadres behind them had only fear in their eyes.
In this operation, Röhm did not bring all the stormtroopers. This was to prevent the collapse of some rabble from affecting morale. The 3,400 stormtroopers he finally brought were already the bravest team in Röhm's hands.
.If you still want to choose a braver team, then Rohm has almost no troops to choose from. Yes, this level is already the limit of the stormtroopers!
The direct brigade brought by Hines just now is the second most elite force in the SA after the Röhm Direct Guard. The two brigade accompanying them can also be regarded as the main force of the stormtroopers. Even they were defeated.
It is impossible to find a better unit among the stormtroopers.
After all, Röhm is also a captain's staff officer who was born in the Munich Military Academy. Through the defeat just now, Röhm also discovered a lot of information.
First of all, although Hines' attack failed, it also revealed the details of the opponent's deployment. Judging from the sound of gunfire, the Hindenburg Manor's troops would not exceed 500 people. The biggest trouble was the machine gun positions on both wings.
And Rohm, like Hines, discovered the flaw in the manor's main building's weak firepower. This was not because the commander on Hindenburg's side made a mistake, but because he chose to prioritize strengthening the firepower on both wings when he was short of troops.
.
If it is on the battlefield, there is no problem with such a deployment. A cross-fire network on both wings is much more effective than a frontal fire network, and it can also ensure the relative safety of the flanks.
However, we are not engaged in a battle now! The stormtroopers only need to capture the main building where Hindenburg and Hitler are located to win. In other words, the auxiliary buildings with powerful firepower on both wings are not something that the stormtroopers must pull out.
Target.
Thinking of this, Roehm said the same conclusion that Hines came to before his death: "As long as the stormtroopers can break into the main building, they will enter a relatively safe environment. By then, we can capture Hindenburg and Hitler."
win."
Ten minutes later, out of a total of 900 stormtroopers from the three brigades that had rushed in, less than 100 came out alive. The three captains were all killed by snipers without exception. Such casualties made Rohm feel...
Shock.
The opponent with less than 500 people could easily annihilate more than 800 stormtroopers just by relying on tactical deployment and their own quality. If they had to fight hard, it is estimated that even if the number of people on their side doubled, they would not be able to annihilate them.
them.
However, Rohm also secretly rejoiced that he did not need to annihilate this Wehrmacht force. According to an old Eastern saying, what he had to do was to capture the thief first. He rushed into the main building and captured the Hindenburg.
The conditions for victory have been met. Of the 3,400 stormtroopers, after excluding the 900 that were lost previously, there are still more than 2,000 stormtroopers left. A team of this size can break through at least 1,000 people into the main building. That's enough!
"Let the remnants of the retreating troops follow us, and leave only Krisch's brigade outside later. All other brigade will join the attack, and I will lead the direct guard to attack together. If we rush into the main building, we will win!"
At this point, Rom has no choice but to finish his work in one battle!
After finishing speaking, Rom said to Chrissy coldly in front of everyone: "If anyone dares to retreat, your team will shoot at him!"
After hearing Rohm's order, all the stormtrooper cadres felt a chill. Rohm's intention was already obvious. He wanted to bring everyone else together to fight for an outcome. Either he would die with him, or he would kill him.
Death. There is no third way for everyone. If you want to live, you must help Rom win!
"Yes! I will resolutely carry out your order." Chrissy, who did not have to die, replied loudly to Rom. Although Chrissy is not Rom's confidant, he can be regarded as a member of Rom's faction. Of course,
This is also the reason why Rohm kept him. After losing Hines, Rohm did not want to continue to lose too many men from his faction. Otherwise, even if he won the victory, Rohm might not be able to stay until the end.
leader of the stormtroopers.
Röhm fired a shot into the sky, and then a large number of stormtroopers rushed towards the main building of Hindenburg's manor. In the danger of losing their lives, every stormtrooper member charged at a speed exceeding the limit.
.The teammates who kept falling around them made them even more frightened and ran even more wildly.
The boundaries between life and death, the difference between fast and slow, are shown scene by scene on the avenue leading to the main building.
