When he heard that walkie-talkies were the latest individual communication equipment developed, Xu Rui said, "My Wolf Fang also needs walkie-talkies. Get me a hundred of them first."
"Why do you want so much?" the staff officer asked.
Xu Rui said: "I calculated, one Langya for one, plus the spare ones, it would be a hundred units anyway."
"God, you want too much. Even the most elite troops in the Soviet Union are only equipped with one walkie-talkie per company. Your Wolf Fang cannot be equipped with so many."
Xu Rui said: "Comrade, we Langya are helping the Soviet people fight. If we can't meet even this small request, how can we exert our maximum combat effectiveness? And you have also seen that Germany's special
In the army, every team has a walkie-talkie. Even if you don’t get me a hundred, I should still have twenty or thirty.”
During the battle with the German special forces, Xu Rui had realized the huge role of walkie-talkies in combat, so he tried his best to fight for Langya.
"Comrade Alyugin, what are you arguing with Comrade Xu Rui?" Zhukov's guard captain Bedov came over and asked.
Alyujin said: "Comrade Xu Rui wants us to equip his Wolf Fang with one hundred walkie-talkies."
Bedov said: "We must try our best to meet Comrade Xu Rui's requirements. Look at how many walkie-talkies we have in our warehouse."
"As far as I know, there are only ten walkie-talkies left in our warehouse, and the rest have been distributed to other troops. These ten walkie-talkies were originally reserved for the newly reorganized headquarters guard," Aleukin said.
Bedov said: "Comrade Xu Rui has been appointed. His position is director of staff, and he and you will be colleagues from now on. The matter between him and Langya is our own business. We will hand over all ten walkie-talkies."
Comrade Xu Rui."
"Okay, Comrade Xu Rui, let someone go and get it with me," Aleukin said.
"good."
Xu Rui was very happy and immediately ordered Ergazi to take a few people to follow Alyujin to get the walkie-talkie.
"Comrade Xu Rui, Comrade Zhukov is waiting for you in the war room, please come with me." Bedov said.
Xu Rui nodded and immediately followed Bedov to see Zhukov.
In the war room, everyone was busy, and people were constantly reporting on the latest battle situation. Zhukov also saw the tricks and issued orders one after another.
Seeing Xu Rui coming, Zhukov was not polite and said immediately: "Comrade Xu Rui, just now, the Germans launched a general attack on Moscow. The situation is very critical now. The high command has officially appointed you as the staff director of the Moscow City Defense Command.
From now on, you will have to fulfill new responsibilities."
It was the Chief of Staff again. Xu Rui smiled. During the Soviet-Finnish War, Stalin appointed himself the Chief of Staff. He still appoints himself the Chief of Staff now. This Chief of Staff sounds like he has a small official position, but he can control everything. His power
In fact, it’s quite big. Of course, it also depends on your ability.
Xu Rui said: "Comrade Zhukov, I will definitely help you defend Moscow!"
Zhukov said: "The situation is very critical now. The German 4th Army of Kruger launched an attack from the front! Huth's 3rd Armored Army launched an attack from the north! Guderian's 2nd Armored Army launched an attack from the south!
In addition, the German 4th Army and the 9th Army also participated in the offensive. The commander-in-chief of the Central Group von Bock is going to fight for his life. In addition, there is news that the German Army Commander-in-Chief Brauchitsch is also preparing to come to the front line. See
It seems that the Germans are bound to win Moscow."
Xu Rui nodded and said: "Judging from the current situation, it is indeed very serious, especially since the Germans have a large number of armored troops, and the infantry has basically realized mechanization and motorization. Their advancement speed is extremely fast, and our army
Lacking tanks and artillery, and mainly relying on infantry, they were at a clear disadvantage compared to the Germans.
I calculated that if we want to restore our disadvantage, we still need 2 armies and at least 200 tanks and 1,000 artillery pieces. As long as we block this wave of German offensives and drag the war into a protracted war, then the supplies in our rear will be
With the continuous replenishment of troops, over time, we will definitely gain the upper hand."
Zhukov said: "Tanks and artillery are already on the way, but it will take two days to arrive. In other words, our army must persist for two days without heavy weapons."
Xu Rui said: "The Kremlin must be defended. The Kremlin happens to be located in the protrusion and is where our army's headquarters is located. The German army will definitely use all its strength to attack the Kremlin."
Zhukov nodded and said: "I originally wanted to withdraw the headquarters from the Kremlin. However, the Kremlin is a symbol of the Soviet Union. If it is lost, it will seriously affect the morale and morale of our military. Therefore, I moved the headquarters to the Kremlin.
To show that we will live or die with the Kremlin!"
Xu Rui said: "It's okay to do this. There is an old saying in China that if you stick to the Kremlin, you will sink the boat. Fortunately, the Kremlin has been camouflaged, so it will be difficult for German planes to accurately find the Kremlin.
, the threat from the air is greatly reduced, and we only need to beware of the German ground attack.
I estimate that the Germans will launch a new attack on the Kremlin soon, so we still need to make the necessary preparations."
Zhukov said: "Yes, the Kremlin is like a sharp knife, piercing the heart of the Germans. As long as we occupy the Kremlin, we can rely on the Kremlin's fortifications to block the enemy. If necessary, we can also launch a full-scale attack on the Germans from here."
counterattack."
"We must beware of German tank attacks," Xu Rui said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Beedov hurriedly walked in and said: "Report, Comrade Zhukov, the German 17th Tank Brigade has broken through the first line of defense of our army outside the Kremlin and is rushing towards the second line of defense!
"
Zhukov was startled and said: "The Germans came so fast. The German 17th Tank Brigade is the most elite unit of the 3rd Armored Group of Hoth. As long as they are stopped, the 3rd Army of Hoth's northern front will lose its offensive.
thrust!"
"However, we do not have enough soldiers and artillery. Now, we can only block the German division and brigade level attack in company units." Beedov said helplessly.
After listening to Bedov's words, Zhukov couldn't think of a good solution for a while. However, if he allowed the Kremlin to fall like this, Zhukov would be a sinner through the ages. Thinking of this, Zhukov's face was covered with beads of sweat.
Xu Rui reminded from the side: "We have reached the last moment, and we can send the military school students to the battlefield."
Zhukov's eyes lit up and he said: "Bedov, quickly check if there are any cadets from the military academy nearby."
"The infantry and artillery cadets of the Podolsk Military Academy are on standby. In addition, we have an artillery company from the 222nd Anti-Aircraft Artillery Regiment that has not been put into battle."
Bedov answered after asking the staff.
A glimmer of light finally appeared in Zhukov's eyes, and he said: "Immediately send the cadets of the Podolsk Military Academy and the artillery battery of the 222nd Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment to block the attack of the 17th Tank Brigade!"
Zhukov knew that the 17th Tank Brigade was the most elite tank and armored unit of the German army. It would be difficult to repel them just by relying on some military academy cadets and an artillery company. However, there was no other way now.
"Comrade Zhukov, Langya requests to join the war!" Xu Rui said loudly.
"Langya joins the battle?" Zhukov thought. The combat effectiveness of Langya is obvious to all. If they can participate in this battle, they may really be able to repel the 17th Tank Brigade.
"Report, the first unit of Guderian's 2nd Armored Group Army on the southern front has broken through the first line of defense outside our army and entered the Moscow neighborhood. The German army has dispatched special forces and is engaging in street fighting with our army. Our army has suffered heavy losses." An officer.
He came in and said.
"What? Guderian also broke through our army's outer defense line?" Zhukov was shocked, thinking that Guderian came so quickly.
Xu Rui said: "The German army dispatched special forces to carry out street fighting? Comrade Zhukov, we can divide the Wolf Fang into two parts. The main force goes to the south to carry out street fighting with the German special forces, and the other part cooperates with the Poddesk Military Academy cadets to block the German 17th Tank Brigade.
.”
Zhukov said: "In this way, I can concentrate my forces to repel Kruger's 4th Army on the western front first. As long as this first wave of German offensive is blocked, then we can take a breath, Comrade Xu Rui
, the northern and southern fronts are left to your wolf fangs, you must withstand the enemy's attack."
Xu Rui said: "I will personally go to the northern front to command the Langya to block the attack of the 17th Tank Brigade."
"What? Comrade Xu Rui, the 17th Tank Brigade is the most elite armored force in Germany. The northern front will be extremely dangerous. You can't go." Zhukov shook his head.
Xu Rui said: "I am going because of the danger. As long as I am here, I will be able to hold the northern line and block the attack of the German 17th Tank Brigade."
Zhukov hesitated for a moment and said: "Okay, then you must pay attention to safety. In addition, the Wolf Fang on the southern front should pay attention to a German named August."
"August?" Xu Rui frowned. He had never heard of this name.
"August was an officer of the Brandenburg Special Forces in Germany and the second most powerful person after Otto. Vasily died in his hands."
"What? Vasily died in his hands?" Xu Rui's eyes sharpened. He suddenly remembered the German special forces commander who had just escaped from his gun. With such agile skills, could he be August?
If this is the case, then Leng Tiefeng will meet his opponent.
"Comrade Zhukov, the German special forces are equipped with a large number of walkie-talkies. Langya must also be equipped with walkie-talkies to strengthen its collaborative combat capabilities. At the same time, I need one or two radios so that I can contact the main army at any time."
