The fighting did not stop when the German troops withdrew. Their soldiers ran back with their weapons in hand, but the Soviet firepower did not stop. Many people were shot in the back, and the way they fled made people even more contemptible.
"Escape for your lives! If you attack again, the whole army will be wiped out!" Joshua shouted at the top of his voice. I don't know if they heard this in Russian. Anyway, the clear voice of a woman like her should make the enemy understand that those who participated in the blocking battle
It's a Slavic woman.
As the German troops all retreated into the forest, the Soviet firepower gradually subsided.
All the firearms were hot, the machine gun barrels could be grilled, and the field gun barrels were being cooled by soldiers with snow, and the surrounding area of the gun barrels was filled with steam.
The enemy's first attack was crushed. Every male and female soldier was dirty. Many people had died in the trenches. Their corpses were very bloody, and the injured were holding their wounds and wailing.
However, everyone still burst into violent cheers, because the troops, with the strength of only one fully-equipped infantry regiment, repelled two regiments, and the entire battle lasted very short-only one and a half hours.
Balzen couldn't help but feel very pleased with these young women, and simply joked: "If the women in the village had your fighting power, we would have more than 10,000 troops!" This clearly regarded female soldiers as their own.
As a male soldier, Joshua felt very comfortable inside.
"This is the first time we have participated in positional warfare. Although we have suffered some losses, the position is still in our hands. Actual combat has proved that we female soldiers can also be entrusted with important tasks."
"Let's talk about these bold words later." Balzen said seriously: "The enemy is only temporarily retreating. These two regiments are the old enemies of our army. According to past experience, they will have to fight again. Only by crushing the enemy a second time
Attack, and they will truly surrender."
"Okay, I understand what you mean." Joshua said: "I order my subordinates to count the equipment and casualties now to prepare for their second round of attack."
"Who knows if there will be a second round." Balzen lit a cigarette casually. The battle just now was still frightening, so he wanted to take one to calm down the fright. He blew out the smoke and couldn't help but handed one to Joshua.
.
"Sorry, I don't like smoking." She refused.
"Well, tobacco can reduce people's stress a lot. Now that you refuse it, maybe you will be unable to do without it in the future, just like a woman cannot do without a man." After teasing, Balzen couldn't help but think of Yang who was fighting in a roundabout way.
Mingzhi. "Comrade Berekov is leading our most elite troops in an action like a left hook. They are marching in a hurry and are expected to arrive at their destination soon. By then we can attack the enemy from the front and back!"
In this flank position, Ninelli walked along the trench and chatted with the female soldiers. He knew that these young girls had just experienced the most brutal battle, and the comfort of men might make them feel safe.
He saw Balzen chatting with Joshua and came to listen. Unexpectedly, they were talking about the deputy division commander.
Ninelli quickly intervened in the topic and said: "Look, this battlefield is full of enemy corpses, and some wounded soldiers are groaning. The enemy paid a heavy price. After they retreated into the forest, once they were reunited with the deputy division commander's elite
If the troops exchange fire, these guys might run towards us again!"
"If they dare to come, we will smash their heads in front!" Joshua was very excited. A smile appeared on her lips. It seemed that she hoped to exchange fire with the enemy again.
"Then go fight. The enemies are not dogs, they are hungry wolves! If the wolves dare to appear, we hunters will destroy them!" Ninelli laughed loudly after saying this, and Joshua also laughed.
They looked boldly at the forest not far away, and could only estimate the enemy's current situation through guesswork.
What is the situation of the retreating enemy?
The two regiments of German troops attacked in a hurry. They did not expect the Soviet firepower to be so tenacious. It looked like an empty position. Why did it suddenly open fire? The one hundred people responsible for the reconnaissance were almost stepping into it.
They had already reached a certain position, but they encountered a disaster right in front of them.
Hoffman was so upset that he could only sulk when he woke up again.
To make matters worse, the deputy commander informed him that 400 brothers did not return from this offensive operation!
"There are so many casualties!" Surprised, Hoffman also had to apologize to the deputy commander. "Your decision is correct. If we continue to fight like this, our regiment will collapse again! Before we have heavy weapons, we have to temporarily
Set up a defense line in the forest and confront the enemy."
This was the most compromise approach, and Hoffman also knew that Floyd's regiment, which later joined the battle, suffered equally bad casualties.
Everything seems to have returned to two months ago. The preparations for that battle were better than this time. Even if we lose troops, we will not be able to win. This time we strictly followed the attack order and encountered particularly strong enemy firepower. The failure is excusable!
Hoffman's soldiers were panting. Some rested against the big trees, and some lay down on the ground regardless of the snow and gasped. Some were even coughing desperately, and some blood spurted out.
After entering the forest, they ran wildly for three kilometers. No one wanted to die suddenly. Each of them used their best strength and ran at their own limit until they were exhausted.
As for the Floyd group, their situation is even worse!
Floyd himself only woke up a few hours after he was knocked unconscious. He was surprised to find himself in the forest. He quickly asked the deputy commander Kubrit who was guarding him: "Are we in a safe zone? We need to
Continue the attack, join forces with Hoffman, and annihilate all the enemies!"
"It's over! Captain." Kubrit shook his head. The black look on his face and the sloppy uniform looked like a defeated attack, and he looked completely decadent.
This made Freud angry. He did not curse immediately. Instead, he looked at his watch and was surprised to find that it was already ten o'clock in the morning! Suddenly, he understood what the phrase "It's over" meant.
.
"What's going on? Have you led the troops in a new battle?"
"That's right! And we failed!" Kubrit answered truthfully. He pointed at the exhausted soldiers and said regretfully: "We have already met with Hoffman, and the two regiments fought a decisive battle with the enemy. The enemy's firepower was almost
According to our imagination, we have lost more than five hundred brothers, and all the wounded soldiers have not withdrawn from the battlefield. So far, there are still fifteen hundred people who have retreated to the forest!"
Floyd's cheeks were trembling, and his whole body was trembling. He wanted to angrily accuse the deputy commander in front of him of being a fool, but when he glanced around, there were soldiers lying down everywhere. Were they injured or killed?
?As the sound of snoring reached his ears, Freud finally understood that these soldiers who had not slept all day and night to execute orders, either running wildly or fighting, finally couldn't stand it any longer.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy. It was difficult for Freud to accept the blow, so he fainted on the stretcher again. After waking up a few minutes later, Freud had to order: "If you fail, fail. If my superiors give me any punishment, I will do it."
Accepted. Kubrit, the entire regiment is temporarily under your command. Now send a telegram to the division headquarters and Hoffmann to report everything we encountered!"
The two regiments suffered losses to varying degrees, with Floyd's regiment almost collapsing! The surviving warriors were so exhausted in terms of physical strength and energy that it would be easy to give them a blow at this time.
And all of this was within Yang Mingzhi's tactical plan.
The appearance of Floyd's regiment was somewhat unexpected, but Yang Mingzhi's troops, who were running wildly, heard the deafening sound of artillery and continuous machine gunfire. The battle has begun. Can the defenders stop the enemy's attack?
?He didn't think much and continued on his way. The entire army quickly arrived at the area where the artillery bombardment had been. They could still see the black smoke and followed the black smoke to the battlefield.
The corpses of the enemy are scattered here, and some of them are not dead yet.
At this time, new information came in, and the radio operator shouted: "Victory! It's victory!" He handed the headset directly to Yang Mingzhi, and Vasilyev on the other end happily claimed that he had successfully resisted the enemy.
In the first wave of attacks, visual inspection estimated that the enemy's losses amounted to seven to eight hundred people.
Yang Mingzhi was overjoyed. He believed that all this was true. He tried to stay calm and ordered Vasilyev: "The enemy may attack again. You should be prepared. Your ammunition consumption may also be very high. Send hundreds of people now."
Go to the battlefield and conduct some reconnaissance. If you are sure there is no danger, pick up weapons and ammunition! And we will take action now to give the enemy a fatal blow!"
Communication was temporarily stopped. Yang Mingzhi organized his team and stopped the soldiers who were already collecting useful things.
After everyone gathered, Yang Mingzhixun said: "Comrades, the enemy's attack was defeated by our army. They retreated into the forest. Now is the time for us to give them the final blow! The enemy is exhausted, and it is our turn to be the protagonist of the battle.
In this battle, we will annihilate all the enemy's strength, follow me and move forward!"
Yang Mingzhi held his submachine gun high. This time he would fight side by side with his beloved soldiers.
The veterans in the team all recall that a few months ago, when the deputy division commander was still the commander of the special anti-tank battalion, he won a high honor for killing the headquarters of an armored division with unexpected tactics. The entire infantry division was originally a tank after the expansion.
A new unit, but became famous in one battle and won the title of Guards!
He is a war genius, and soldiers fight on the shoulders of heroes! The enemy is exhausted, and this raid is likely to complete another tactical miracle!
The high-spirited soldiers immediately formed an offensive formation and organized a wide offensive surface. More than a thousand people shuttled through the forest until they rounded off the enemy's back and launched an overwhelming Ula charge. (To be continued.) 8
