Chapter 429 The German army has also withdrawn this way
Ula's charge was full of courage and easier to sacrifice. The casualties of Roshakov's soldiers were within the tolerable range!
Roshakov himself was also in danger. Of course, the orders he issued included himself. Leading by example can best drive all soldiers. This courage gradually turned into combat effectiveness. Coupled with the existence of excellent infantry tactical weapons, the Soviet army's advantage
Gradually it got bigger.
And because a large number of soldiers from both armies entered the ruins and started fighting in the streets, the German field artillery had to weigh before opening fire whether the new shelling would kill all of its own people!
German Army Commander Ludwig was nervously monitoring the battle situation. Even though it was cold, sweat still dripped from his helmet, because the battle situation was beginning to turn unfavorable.
His deputy commander had to advise his superiors: "Our troops are not fully prepared for this encounter! Those Soviets are simply crazy!"
"Yes! I know they are a group of lunatics! A group of howling lunatics!" An anxious Ludwig also roared. Then he raised his telescope to monitor the enemy's actions.
I saw that these Soviets were still able to carry out effective attacks amidst the ruins, and Homnich once again turned into a bloody battlefield.
One behavior of the Soviet army really made Ludwig not expect that what they threw must be grenades. The frequent explosions completely increased the density of their firepower.
"This is completely different from the report on the eastern front. The enemy's tactics in front of me are very strange! Street fighting uses grenades to open the way! It is really effective in terms of efficiency." Ludwig was not praising the enemy. This was the first time he had seen the enemy's attack method.
, the German troops began to slowly withdraw, and there was a strong tendency to be driven out of the ruins!
Two battalions of the German army entered the ruins. They began to retreat tactically after suffering certain losses. Ludwig immediately sensed an opportunity and immediately ordered the artillery to correct their direction and aim at the ruins to prepare to fire.
The actions of the enemy's artillery were immediately noticed by Roshakov. "Their artillery is correcting the elevation, do they still need to fire?" He held up the telescope to confidently observe the details, and found that those guys simply leveled the muzzle of the gun. What were they doing?
it goes without saying.
Roshakov immediately ordered Chernenko, who had not yet rushed into the ruins: "Take your soldiers and find a way to enter the forest and take out the enemy's artillery! Don't be afraid of losses, kill their baggage and heavy weapons,
This regiment is destined to lose its combat effectiveness!"
The battalion of more than 500 people received the order, and they immediately began to move to the left flank of the battlefield.
This move was also noticed by Ludwig. "Are the enemies trying to outflank me? Send Kidman's battalion to block them!"
The enemy wants to block the outflanking troops? Rosakov believes that Chernenko's people will educate these Germans on what forest warfare is.
But the threat from their artillery was too great, and these thick tubes had to be silenced. Moreover, the enemy was evacuating the ruins, but the barrels were kept flat. It was unclear what their intention was.
Roshakov immediately ordered the radio operator to tell Klavsky, who was fighting fiercely with the enemy in the ruins: "Bring your comrades back urgently, the enemy's field artillery has been aimed at you! The retreat of the enemy infantry is simply a decoy!"
Being bombarded by stupid artillery? That's impossible! Klavsky immediately gathered his troops and evacuated the ruins. Unfortunately, the German artillery was already powerful, and shells exploded in the ruins one after another. Some soldiers were blown to pieces on the spot, and this explosion was also close to the evacuation.
For the Germans, the pressure of artillery fire was just as bad for them.
"It's really scary. We almost killed one of our own!" the deputy leader couldn't help but feel ashamed.
"That's right! Our regimental artillery fired very accurately. Now the enemy dares to charge again? Then he will be torn apart by the shock wave!"
"But, you also created a lot of dust!"
The deputy commander's words hit the mark. The explosion kicked up so much dust that it created a smoky atmosphere for a while, which instead provided cover for the enemy to evacuate.
"This is simply the smoke of war!" Ludwig thought of ancient wars. The flintlocks widely used in the line battle era can produce a large amount of gunpowder smoke. When the battle continues, the entire battlefield will be shrouded in smoke. People are in the smoke.
in battle!
When Rosakov saw the rising smoke, he was surprised and immediately realized that this was an opportunity!
This opportunity fell on the female barracks. Sashanova was ordered by Rosakov: "Your people will immediately make a detour from the right wing forest as quickly as possible to attack the enemy's flank! Whether the encounter can be won depends on your
Got it!"
This day's battle was the first battle this female barracks had encountered since its establishment. Some of them had already sacrificed their lives. For the sake of honor and not to lose to the men, the women began their mad dash.
"Everything is up to you!" Rosakov watched them leave and quickly gathered his team.
Unknowingly, Roshakov turned the entire formation into a semi-encirclement. On the front line, the two armies were indistinguishable. Fortunately, the Soviet army had more combat troops, and a new pincer offensive came from the left and right wings.
.
Ludwig was surprised to find that the battalion he had sent out to block the encircling enemy had withdrawn from the forest one after another!
"Kidman! How could your battalion fail!" Ludwig was furious. After the enemy came from the flank, the entire unit was in trouble!
Just when the German army immediately began to adjust its defense direction, a troop came out.
That's the female barracks! They have only one goal - to occupy the enemy's artillery position!
This unexpected attack was successfully completed, the German artillery was completely wiped out, and these artillery were captured by the Soviet army.
Sashanova immediately decided: "Sisters, we can't have these artillery pieces, let's destroy them now! Take out the grenades and stuff them into the barrels!"
The artillery position was captured, and the baggage carriage was also occupied by the enemy! Ludwig was extremely annoyed: "Why are there still enemies?! Did they come out of the forest?"
Soon, the messenger came to report. The latest situation was incredible. Because the destruction of the artillery was actually done by a group of Slavic women.
When the artillery position was successfully captured and destroyed, Sashanova fired a signal rocket into the sky. The green phosphor took off, which meant the mission was completed.
Roshakov looked at the signal with a smile and immediately ordered the soldiers who had just retreated: "Comrades! Our women have destroyed the enemy's artillery. Do you have anything to worry about now? Follow me forward!"
The battle situation developed too quickly, and Ludwig could only comfort himself. These Soviets had wings on their feet, so they were extremely maneuverable!
If the fight continues like this, there is a risk of total collapse of the troops when casualties reach a certain level. Coupled with the previous street fighting and the sudden change in the situation, the entire war lasted from morning to one o'clock in the afternoon!
The two armies were actually competing for patience, and obviously the Soviet army was more patient.
Ludwig's mission was to eliminate the enemy's Tchaikov guerrillas and all members of the Gomel Municipal Committee of the Soviet Union. Unexpectedly, thousands of elite Soviet troops appeared on the way. They shouldn't be called guerrillas at all? This is completely
It was inconsistent with the intelligence. In order to preserve his strength, Ludwig had no choice but to order a retreat!
In this way, the German army abandoned a large amount of baggage, only a few carriages escaped, and two thousand soldiers retreated while fighting.
Upon seeing this, Roshakov immediately ordered all the advancing battalions to stop immediately to avoid causing greater casualties.
In fact, Roshakov still needs to sort out the battle. He must contact the deputy division commander and the division headquarters to report the appearance of a large number of German troops in Homnich, which is beyond everyone's expectations! (To be continued.) 8
