When Yegor confidently launched an attack on the Vlasov Guards, he was horrified to find that the Vlasov Guards directly countercharged and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with his own troops.
Hand-to-hand combat requires tenacious perseverance and a strong will. Only the most elite and brave troops dare to engage in hand-to-hand combat. From this point alone, it can be seen that the Vlasov Guards definitely have strong combat effectiveness.
.
The main body of Yegor's army was composed of untrained workers, plus some weak prisoners of war. Such a unit could not possibly be a match for the elite Vlasov Guards in hand-to-hand combat.
After a bloody battle, Yegor's troops were completely defeated, but the Vlasov Guards pursued them and kept moving forward. Fortunately, Morov's troops blocked it for a while and formed a confrontation with them, and then they blocked it.
Attack of the Vlasov Guards.
Yegor's eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted and wanted to rush forward.
"Egor, you'd better save some energy." Xu Rui's voice came from a distance. It turned out that when Xu Rui learned that Yegor was attacking Vlasov's guards, he knew something was wrong and rushed to the front line in person.
.
Seeing Xu Rui coming, Yegor's old face turned red, and Xu Rui said: "Yegor, your troops should withdraw immediately to rest. I will let Molov's troops and Paul's troops go up."
"Yes!" Yegor responded and stepped aside in shame.
Xu Rui said: "Now it seems that we must annihilate the Vlasov Guards, otherwise the puppet army's military morale will be stable. As long as they stabilize and know the strength of our army, then, using the numerical advantage, even if
Pressure can also crush us to death."
"Then what should we do?" Morlov asked.
Xu Rui said: "Gather all the troops, including the Wolf Fang, and eat the Vlasov Guards in one bite!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Xu Rui immediately ordered all the ministries to assemble immediately. He even sent out Diana's female military battalion to join the battle.
At the same time, Lang Ya, on Xu Rui's order, sneaked behind the Vlasov Guards and prepared to cut off their retreat. The Kosygin 1st Battalion, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, was sent to the front line in order to strengthen the firepower of the 1st Battalion.
, Xu Rui asked Paul to aim several Italian cannons at the Vlasov Guard position.
It was already getting light, and Xu Rui knew that he had to deal with the Vlasov Guards and defeat the puppet army in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, as soon as daybreak, the enemy would know his true identity, and he would be in a very dangerous situation.
Thinking of this, Xu Rui said: "Start the attack immediately, and we must defeat the Vlasov Guards before dawn!"
"Comrades, rush!"
Following Kosygin's roar, thousands of brave Soviet Red Army soldiers attacked the Vlasov Guards. Plushenko did not retreat at all, and immediately pressed forward with his entire army, entangled with Kosygin's battalion.
"Kill!" A Red Army soldier thrust his bayonet into the chest of the puppet soldier in front of him, but the puppet soldier held on to the Red Army soldier's bayonet and refused to let go until his death. The next moment, two puppet soldiers attacked at the same time.
Two bayonets pierced the backs of the Red Army soldiers at the same time...
"kill!"
A Red Army soldier lightly picked up the bayonet stabbed from the opposite side, then thrust his gun forward, stabbing the enemy to the ground. At this time, a puppet soldier rushed from the side and stabbed the Red Army soldier. The Red Army soldier
The soldier threw down the rifle in his hand, rushed forward, and punched the puppet soldier in the face. The puppet soldier also dropped his rifle. The two men struggled with each other. The Red Army soldier bit the main artery of the puppet soldier's neck.
on the puppet army, biting off the artery of the puppet army, blood spurted out suddenly, turning the Red Army soldier into a bloody man...
This was a tragic battle. Both sides of the battle fought to the last breath. The puppet troops were very fierce and numerous. As time went by, the disadvantage of the small number of Kosygin's troops became apparent. They began to be passive and were overwhelmed.
He kept retreating as he fought.
Seeing this scene, Xu Rui immediately threw all his troops, including Paul and Morov's battalions, the Safin regiment, and even the women's battalion into the battlefield. Xu Rui was really risking his life.
With the addition of reinforcements, the situation on the battlefield began to develop in favor of the Soviet army.
Plushenko's troops could no longer hold on and retreated after being beaten. Many people turned around and ran away. Plushenko shot two deserters and shouted: "Don't retreat, come back!"
But no one listened to him. When Plushenko saw this posture, he knew it was over. If he stayed any longer, he might lose his life. Thinking of this, Plushenko got mixed up in the crowd and fled backwards.
As soon as Plushenko escaped, the puppet army's defense line collapsed completely, and the Red Army charged forward bravely. However, when the rest of the puppet army saw that Vlasov's guards were defeated, they did not dare to fight at all and fled one after another.
When Vlasov saw that things were not going well, he oiled his feet and ran away.
It has to be said that Vlasov still had a knack for escaping. He disguised himself as a peasant and successfully escaped from Smolensk and headed towards Moscow. At this point, the hundreds of thousands of people guarding Smolensk
There was only one Finnish regiment left in the German servitor army.
Xu Rui's plan was successful and he won an unprecedented victory.
Next, Xu Rui prepared to take the final step of liberating Smolensk and annihilating the Finnish troops. However, when Xu Rui gathered all his troops to attack, he was surprised to find that the entire Finnish troops had already escaped.
Xu Rui wondered, during the Soviet-Finnish war, the Finns fought for every inch of territory and fought so bravely, showing great combat effectiveness. Why are they so bad now in the Soviet Union?
After thinking about it carefully, Xu Rui already understood that hundreds of thousands of servants had fled. The Finnish army was not the son of the Germans, so naturally they would not fight for the Germans. In this case, they still maintained their strength.
For priority, it is not strange to retreat without a fight.
With the Finnish army fleeing without a fight, the entire Smolensk was finally liberated.
"Victory!"
Everyone cheered in unison. The victory in the Battle of Smolensk was of extraordinary significance. It cut off the German army's retreat in Moscow and occupied the German logistics base in Moscow. In this way, the German Army Group Center became a source of water.
, it is impossible to hold on in Moscow. Secondly, Smolensk is the first city that the Soviet army has completely recovered since the outbreak of the war, which is of extremely important significance. This is tantamount to announcing to the world that the Soviet army has the ability to liberate
Defeating the German invaders on their own territory will definitely greatly inspire the Soviet military and civilians' fighting spirit and determination to win.
At this time, Xu Rui stood in front of the generator and said: "Moscow, Comrade Zhukov, our army has liberated Smolensk this morning and defeated the 200,000 enemy troops entrenched in Smolensk!"
Xu Rui knew that in such a situation of great victory, the greater the result he reported, the greater the effect on boosting morale, so he simply reported the number of 200,000 for defeating the German army.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves. As soon as Xu Rui's telegram arrived in Moscow, Zhukov's headquarters exploded.
"What? Did I see it right? Did I really see it right?"
Zhukov held the telegram sent by Xu Rui in his hand. He was so shocked that he couldn't believe his eyes.
It no longer matters whether there are 200,000 enemy troops in Smolensk, because even if there are not 200,000, there are still hundreds of thousands. The capture of Smolensk is genuine. This is the first time since the war began that the Soviet army has captured an enemy.
The captured city is of extraordinary significance. What is even more rare is that Xu Rui only brought more than 80 people of the Langya Special Forces into Smolensk, and their mission was only to destroy and reconnaissance. How did he manage to capture Smolensk?
What about Molensk?
More than 80 people defeated more than 100,000 people. God, how did he do it? This is simply a myth!
Zhukov was completely shocked and did not recover for a long time.
"Comrade Zhukov! Comrade Zhukov!" Feiklenko kept calling Zhukov's name from the side.
Only then did Zhukov come back to his senses and kept saying: "It's a miracle, a miracle, how did they do it?"
"Comrade Zhukov, please wait a moment. The detailed battle report will come shortly," Feiklenko said.
After a while, a detailed battle report appeared in front of Zhukov. Seeing Xu Rui's capture of Smolensk, Zhukov once again exclaimed a miracle. Xu Rui actually used a temporary army composed of workers, prisoners of war, guerrillas, and women.
The ragtag army actually captured Smolensk, where 200,000 enemy troops were stationed, within a few days. This is simply too sensational.
God, this Xu Rui is like a god coming down to earth, creating miracles one after another. Every time, he ends the battle in a way that surprises everyone. More than 80 people go out to conquer 200,000 enemies in a few days.
The city where the army is stationed is simply unbelievable, unbelievable!
Zhukov suddenly realized a problem. After Xu Rui captured Smolensk, the German army would inevitably return reinforcements. By then, could his hastily gathered troops be able to withstand the powerful German offensive?
Thinking of this, Zhukov immediately ordered Kuznetsov's First Shock Army to quickly attack to reinforce Smolensk.
Zhukov secretly prayed that Xu Rui must hold on. As long as he can hold on for two days, Smolensk will be saved as soon as Kuznetsov's troops arrive.
If it is not destroyed, it can only retreat, and the siege of Moscow can be completely lifted.
Thinking of this, Zhukov immediately sent a report to Xu Rui, telling him that as long as he persisted for two days, reinforcements would arrive.
Zhukov's guess was correct. When the headquarters of the German Army Group Center received the news of the fall of Smolensk, everyone was extremely shocked. They did not understand which Soviet unit had such an ability to do so in one night.
Sweeping hundreds of thousands of Allied troops between them...
