When he saw Karl firing his last bullet before dying, Leng Tiefeng admired these Germans in his heart.
It seems that the Germans have an extremely strong will to fight. From this point of view, the Germans do not lack courage and determination to sacrifice. They are an excellent nation. Unfortunately, they have embarked on a path of invading other countries and nations.
Road, which also doomed the outcome of this unjust war to inevitable failure.
"Siberian tiger, send electricity to Beedov. Our troops have destroyed the headquarters of the German 2nd Army. Guderian's life or death is unknown."
"Yes!" the Siberian Tiger immediately sent a telegram, and then asked: "Captain, are we going to withdraw now?"
"Withdraw? We were so happy fighting just now. It would be boring to withdraw like this." Leng Tiefeng said with a smile.
The Siberian tiger asked: "Captain, where do you want to fight?"
"According to the information sent by Beedov, the Nizhny Koter train station has been bombed, and the command structure of the German Army Group Center has not been found, and the Gref Cathedral is only the headquarters of the German 2nd Army. That is to say
, the Durasov Manor that Lao Xu attacked is very likely to be the location of the German command headquarters, so we will act immediately to reinforce Lao Xu and the others."
"Yes!" Siberian Tiger responded, and everyone followed Leng Tiefeng back to the two Opel Lightnings, got in the car, and then determined the direction and headed towards Durasov Manor.
…
In the Kremlin, Bedov was overjoyed when he received the telegram from the Siberian tiger and came to Zhukov's office excitedly.
"Comrade Zhukov, according to Comrade Leng Tiefeng's call, they attacked Gref Cathedral and severely damaged the command structure of the German Second Army. Guderian's life and death are unknown. Now the German Second Army has fallen into chaos."
"Well done!"
Zhukov excitedly waved his fist and said: "We must seize this opportunity to launch an attack on the German 2nd Army. If we can defeat the German 2nd Army in one fell swoop, then the pressure on Moscow City will be greatly reduced."
"But we don't have enough troops to launch a counterattack," Bedov said.
"If you don't have enough troops, just make up. In short, we must not miss this golden opportunity and order Lu Jin, the commander of the 19th Group in the south, to immediately switch to counterattack."
Bedov said: "Lukin? His troops just broke out from the German encirclement and suffered huge losses. If they are sent there, the effect will be limited."
"Except for the 19th Army, we have no troops left! This is the largest force we can dispatch at present." Zhukov said helplessly.
Bedov thought for a while and said: "One more thing, Comrade Zhukov, after the Germans learned that you were appointed commander of the Southwest Front Army, they published many articles in newspapers. They believed that the occupation of Moscow was inevitable, and even the German head of state
Say in the newspaper: 'I am only saying this today, because today I can declare with complete certainty: the enemy has been annihilated and they will never rise again!'"
Zhukov said: "It seems that the Germans do not take me seriously. That's fine. The more arrogant they are, the faster they will perish."
"Comrade Bedov, immediately order the 19th Army to attack the German 2nd Army. We must seize this opportunity to eliminate as many Germans as possible!"
"Yes!" Beedov turned and left.
…
Durasov Manor, located in the southeast of Moscow, is a well-known manor outside Moscow. The manor's neoclassical architecture and various "functional" facilities complement each other, making it a pearl of Moscow's aristocratic manors.
At this time, Durasov Manor had become the headquarters of the German Army Group Center. Von Bock, the commander-in-chief of Army Group Center, was pacing the ground anxiously.
Von Bock, nicknamed "Kusterling's Holy Fire", was born in a military family in Kusterling. His great-grandfather served in the army of Frederick the Great, and his grandfather served as deputy commander of the army stationed in Magdeburg.
, his father was an officer during the Franco-Prussian War and was later promoted to major general, and his mother was the sister of the German Chief of Staff, Erich von Falkenhayn.
Born in such a family, it is difficult to achieve anything. Von Bock was sent to a military school at the age of eight. His academic performance is quite outstanding, including excellent modern languages, mathematics, and history, and he can speak fluent Russian.
, French and English, he is a complete academic master.
During his decades of military career, von Bock won countless honors and almost never lost a battle, so he became the Marshal of Germany and commanded an army of millions.
However, Von Bock is not at all high-spirited now. Although he has occupied three-quarters of the city blocks in Moscow, and the city of Moscow is just around the corner, a series of bad news has happened in the past day or two.
First, the Brandenburg Special Forces, regarded as the pride of heaven, suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw from the battle to rest. Secondly, the 17th Tank Brigade, the most elite German army on the northern front, suffered a heavy blow and lost almost all its heavy equipment and personnel.
Tragic, this was the heaviest loss suffered by the German army since the war began.
According to intelligence, these were all carried out by a Chinese special forces unit invited by the Soviets, which made von Bock feel a sense of danger.
Although he didn't think that a small fang could finally turn the tide of the battle, it always felt uncomfortable to have such a Sword of Damocles hanging in the air.
Von Bock always felt a little uneasy and had a premonition that something was going to happen.
"Report! Marshal, the Lower Cotre train station was bombed, and a large amount of our army's military supplies were bombed," said a colonel.
"Oh? What did the Soviets do? Did they use air strikes or artillery bombings?"
"No, the Soviets used special forces to sneak into the station and detonate the bomb."
"The Soviet special forces? Weren't they all wiped out in Smolensk?" Von Bock frowned.
"What the Soviets dispatched this time was the Chinese Wolf Fang Troop, which was the famous devil troop on the Soviet-Finnish battlefield." said the colonel.
"It's Wolf Fang again." Von Bock frowned.
"Report to Marshal, the 2nd Army Headquarters was attacked!" an officer quickly walked into the office and said.
"How is Guderian?" Von Bock's heart was hanging. Guderian was a hero in the eyes of the Germans. If he was killed, it would be a huge blow to the morale and morale of the German soldiers and civilians.
The officer said: "General Guderian was seriously injured. Although his life is not in danger, he will no longer be able to command the battle in a short period of time, and..."
"And what?" Seeing the officer hesitate to speak, von Bock asked.
"The entire 2nd Army headquarters has been completely destroyed, and the 2nd Army is now in chaos."
"What?" Von Bock was shocked. The entire 2nd Army headquarters was seized. This was a big deal. If the Soviets seized this opportunity to counterattack, the consequences would be disastrous.
"I know." Feng Bock knew that he couldn't mess up. If he even messed up, the situation would inevitably deteriorate rapidly.
"How did the Soviets do it? Don't tell me that the Wolf Fang special forces did it again." Von Bock said.
"Marshal, the escaping soldiers said that a special force of dozens of people attacked the 2nd Army headquarters."
"It must be Langya. According to what I said, Guderian's headquarters was guarded by at least one infantry battalion. How could it be defeated by dozens of special forces?" Von Bock knew that it was Langya who did it again, but he couldn't.
Imagine how Langya fought this battle. How could dozens of people wipe out hundreds of people?
"They filled the carriage with explosives, and then drove the carriage to carry out a suicide attack, razing the entire Gref Cathedral to the ground." The officer said with a bitter smile.
"So that's it."
Feng Bock felt weak all over, Wolf fang, Wolf fang again, they are really a group of demons!
"Marshal, according to reconnaissance, the Soviets have begun operations. They are deploying troops to attack the 2nd Army on the southern front!" The colonel received the telegram from the front and quickly brought it to von Bock.
"The Soviets launched an attack? Which army?"
"It should be the 19th Army."
"19th Army? They just fled to Moscow and lost almost all their heavy equipment. How dare they launch an attack?"
In an instant, Fon Bock's eyes lit up. He keenly felt that this was a crisis, but also an opportunity. The Soviet army had been concentrating its forces on defense, and now it took the initiative to send out part of its forces, and it was the 19th Army that had been severely damaged.
Army group, doesn't this give you the opportunity to annihilate yourself?
Thinking of this, von Bock said: "I order that all units of the 2nd Army immediately take orders directly from the Army Group Center Headquarters and are under my personal command."
"yes!"
"Order: Our troops on the front line will lure the enemy deep into the enemy's territory and put the attacking Soviet troops into our positions. Then the 16th Armored Division will outflank the left wing and the 31st Armored Division will outflank the right wing to cut off the Soviet army's retreat. All artillery units will prepare to attack
After encircling the Soviet troops, immediately carry out a saturation strike, and be sure to annihilate all the Soviet troops involved in the attack in a few designated blocks!"
"yes!"
All the officers responded in unison.
Under von Bock's order, the highly efficient German war machine immediately started to use advanced communication facilities. Although the German 2nd Armored Group lost the command of Guderian, it was directly controlled by von Bock.
Under the command of von Bock, the German army began to launch an efficient counterattack. Two German armored divisions immediately outflanked the Soviet army from the left and right wings, while the rest of the German troops stayed in the front. Von Bock had opened a large net.
Wanting to swallow up the Soviet 19th Army that rushed into the net.
Von Bock believed that as long as he killed the 19th Soviet Army, the Soviet army on the southern front of Moscow would collapse. By then, the Soviet army in Moscow would no longer have the power to stop him, and the German army would inevitably occupy the entire Moscow.
Winning this key battle, or even the key battle to win the entire Soviet-German war, will be a decisive battle!
The German army has sharpened its sword and prepared its net!
