Von Kluge said: "Vlasov has written a letter of repentance to the head of state, and has also publicly criticized Stalin and the Soviet Union on many public occasions. Stalin already hated him to the bone. Although this kind of weak-minded person makes people
No shame, but he was still very helpful to the cause of the Third Reich."
Guderian said: "How many people are there in these servant armies?"
Von Kluge said: "The Finnish army has 30,000 troops, and the Romanian army has 40,000 to 50,000 troops. The Russian Liberation Army has just been established. Except for some anti-Soviet Belarusians, Lithuanians, and Latvians who actively joined, the rest of the soldiers were selected from
Most of the Soviet soldiers and officers at all levels who rebelled in the prisoner-of-war camps were renegade Soviet officers, and the total number added up to about 50,000."
Guderian said: "The total number is hundreds of thousands. It should be enough for so many troops to defend the rear of the 6th Army. I am just worried about their combat effectiveness, especially the combat effectiveness of the Russian People's Liberation Army."
Von Kruger said: "The combat effectiveness of the Lithuanians and Latvians in the Russian Liberation Army is still very strong. As for the combat effectiveness of the Soviet renegade soldiers, it remains to be tested by time."
Guderian said: "Under the current situation of insufficient strength of our army, this is the only way to deal with it."
"In this case, then send a telegram to Paulus to have his 6th Army immediately attack with all its strength to retake the western part of Moscow..."
For the Germans, they must seize the western part of Moscow again. In this case, the capture of Moscow will be just around the corner. Therefore, Paulus devoted all his 270,000 troops to the battle to attack the Western Front. More than 200,000 trained troops
The well-equipped German army, with the cooperation of more than 300 tanks, launched wave after wave of attacks on the Soviet positions.
The Soviet army, led by Kuznetsov and other generals, resisted desperately, and the battle entered a fierce stage.
At Moscow Chengdong Airport, Xu Rui came to a YAK-1 fighter jet. He was very energetic. Looking at the aircraft in front of him, Xu Rui felt very excited. He knew that this aircraft was the latest Soviet aircraft with high performance.
Compared with Yi 16, Yi 15, and even the Lago 3 and MiG 3 in the same period, they still have obvious advantages.
This aircraft was the mainstay of the Soviet Air Force against the Luftwaffe.
The main weapons include a 20mm cannon, two 12.7mm machine guns, and can also carry 100 kilograms of bombs. Xu Rui knew that with this kind of aircraft, he could lead the Soviet Air Force to fight against the German Air Force.
Looking at the two dozen YAK-1 fighter jets beside him, Xu Rui said: "Act now!"
Subsequently, more than twenty Soviet pilots entered the cab of YAK-1 one after another, and under the leadership of Xu Rui, flew towards the German position.
In the cab, Xu Rui continued to adjust the aircraft, adapting to its performance, doing barrel rolls and jack-knifing from time to time. His actions dazzled the Soviet fighter pilots nearby. They were all shocked, saying that they could not believe that Comrade Xu Rui was still flying.
A supreme master of flying fighter jets.
This time, Xu Rui's purpose was to attack the German airport in Moscow.
The plane flew over the German air smoothly and landed directly at the Moscow Airport controlled by the Germans. At this moment, the German fighter jets had received news of the incoming Soviet aircraft, and more than thirty German BF109s took off to attack.
Xu Rui saw a row of dense dots appearing in the sky in the distance. The dots grew larger and larger, and finally he saw clearly that they were German fighter jets coming to attack.
As soon as Xu Rui saw the German fighter jets flying in, he immediately said through the airborne communication equipment: "All aircraft immediately pulled up and occupied the commanding heights."
Xu Rui knows that in this era, occupying the commanding heights in air combat will give you an absolute advantage in air combat. The four elements of air combat are: altitude, speed, maneuverability, and firepower.
More than two dozen YAK-1 fighter jets began to climb upwards. At the same time, the German fighter jets also discovered the Soviet combat effectiveness and were also climbing desperately.
As the two sides climbed up, they continued to get closer. No one could gain an absolute advantage, and finally fell into a melee.
Xu Rui opened fire while climbing, and a string of shells killed an enemy plane directly in front of him. However, before he could be happy, Xu Rui found that he had been locked by an enemy plane from behind.
Xu Rui knew that if this continued, the opponent would only need a string of cannon shells to knock him out. Xu Rui quickly pulled the joystick, raised the nose of the machine, made a 180-degree roll, and then continued to move upward at a large angle.
Climb, cross the vertical state, rise to a very high altitude, then reverse again, and finally fly in the opposite direction.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned. At this time, Xu Rui did another roll and returned to level flight, but his position was already a lot higher.
Unknowingly, Xu Rui had used his best Immelmann maneuver to bite the enemy aircraft, and then a series of machine gun shells were fired directly at the German aircraft, sending thick smoke everywhere.
It fell to the ground and turned into a ball of fire.
Xu Rui's series of actions made everyone dumbfounded.
"This guy can actually do an Immelmann spin! God, he can actually do such a difficult aerial combat maneuver!"
In fact, Immelmann is an air combat technique invented by the German pilot Immelmann during World War I. However, so far, too few people in the world's air force can master this flying technique, and only a few ace pilots can do it.
This maneuver is sometimes used in performances. No one would have thought that Xu Rui would actually use the Immelmann maneuver in actual combat, which left all the pilots speechless. It can only be said that Xu Rui is really awesome to the extreme.
Several smart pilots soon realized the benefits of this action. Not only could they get rid of the enemy planes that were chasing them, but they could also regain altitude and get behind the enemy's tail, turning defense into offense. They also wanted to copy Xu's maneuver.
The sharp Immelmann maneuvered, but because of his unskilled skills, they all failed, and two of them were shot down.
At this moment, Xu Rui was once again targeted by the Germans. Xu Rui repeated his old plan and made another Mommelman maneuver, running behind the enemy plane and destroying the German aircraft that was targeting him.
Xu Rui's performance attracted too much attention. Four German fighter planes flew towards him at the same time, trying to shoot down Xu Rui's fighter plane.
Xu Rui saw four fighter jets flying towards him, but he did not panic. He rolled to avoid the bullets from the enemy planes. At this moment, Xu Rui was surprised to find that more than 30 German fighter jets came from another direction.
The Soviet aircraft were attacking from one direction, and these German fighter jets had a high altitude advantage. If they joined the attack after arriving, their own flying team would surely suffer huge losses.
Xu Rui turned the plane around and returned to the way it came. At the same time, more than twenty YAK-1 aircraft followed Xu Rui's plane and flew back to the way it came.
"New enemy aircraft found, all retreat!"
Although six or seven planes were shot down, there were still nearly sixty German planes in total, constantly chasing the Soviet planes from behind.
At this time, Xu Rui had become the target of public criticism due to his outstanding performance in the battle. A German plane clung to Xu Rui's plane and directed a series of machine gun shells at the plane.
Xu Rui immediately made a barrel roll and then made a sharp turn to avoid the German aircraft's lock.
However, other Soviet aircraft did not have such good luck. One of the planes flying behind was shot down by a German plane, and the other one was seriously injured. Fortunately, the pilot forced the plane to fly to an area controlled by his side, and then
He forced himself to parachute and escaped with his life.
The Soviet planes continued to fly forward, all entering the hinterland of the Soviet-controlled area. More than 60 German planes were chasing after them. Colonel Fischer, the captain of the German flying team, knew that the Soviet flying team in front of him was in hot pursuit.
It is the main force of the Soviet air force in Moscow. Now that it has the advantage, it is natural to annihilate them all in one go, otherwise it will cause endless troubles if the tiger returns to the mountains.
"Bite them and don't let go of a Soviet plane!" Fischer yelled.
"yes!"
Voices came one by one through the onboard communication equipment.
"boom!"
Fischer only felt the fuselage tremble, and there seemed to be strong vibrations around him. He looked towards the side of the plane and saw a cloud of black smoke filling the surrounding area.
That's...the Soviet anti-aircraft artillery unit!
"boom!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Anti-aircraft shells exploded one after another in the middle of the German aircraft group, like brilliant fireworks. In just a moment, three German aircraft were shot down by Soviet anti-aircraft guns.
The next moment, Fischer was sweating profusely. Since the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, German aircraft had never encountered such a dense anti-aircraft artillery attack. With such intensive artillery fire, at least hundreds of anti-aircraft guns were attacking at the same time.
At this moment, Fischer realized that he had fallen into the Soviets' trick of luring the enemy. The Soviets' purpose was to lead their flying team into this anti-aircraft artillery position that had already set up an ambush. He was really too careless.
I didn't expect the Soviets to be so cunning.
"Retreat quickly!"
Seeing his pilot's planes being shot down one after another, Fischer knew that he had to retreat, otherwise all the more than 60 fighter jets would be lost here. Without these more than 60 fighter jets, as well as these battle-tested aircraft,
If there are excellent pilots, then the Luftwaffe in Moscow will be severely weakened.
"Retreat!" Fischer issued an order through the communication equipment. Then, Fischer felt the fuselage shake violently. One of the wings of the plane was interrupted by Soviet artillery fire, and the plane immediately fell rapidly.
At the last moment, Fischer desperately tried to control the plane to restore stability, but he ultimately failed. Now Fischer had only one way to survive, and that was to parachute. However, this was a Soviet-controlled area. If he parachuted, he would inevitably become a Soviet
As a prisoner of the Soviet army, Fischer would rather die than become a prisoner of the Soviet army. For the honor of the soldier, he decided to die with the Soviet anti-aircraft artillery.
