Chapter 614 The fighter jets return to the infantry
For a time, thousands of people gave up the long position. When they saw a large group of people emerging from the ground, the fighter jets that had planned to leave flew back one after another. They instinctively concluded that the sudden crowd was...
The enemy immediately launched a brutal one-sided massacre. The fastest update
When the machine guns and cannons hit the ground, the soil was lifted up very high. The powerful kinetic energy of the ammunition was able to ensure that one person would be hit and knocked down. All targets on the strafing route would only be left with blood after the dust dispersed.
of minced meat.
This actually stimulated the people who were running for their lives. Many people simply threw away their guns and sprinted towards the forest like a 100-meter sprint. This 500-meter-long escape road also turned into a bloody hell. Lotharheim was responsible for
A one-kilometer-long area of the defense line was attacked by fire. In just ten minutes, the position was in a mess.
Perhaps fearing that there would be another battle in the future, in order to save ammunition and fuel, the fifty Lager 3 fighter jets finally turned around to catch up with the large army.
There were no more aerial bombardments, but the Soviet offensive had just begun.
"Everyone, keep moving forward! Our air force brothers have helped us beat the enemy hard. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. We captured the enemy's position in one fell swoop." Lavrenti on the left ordered his subordinates, Yevgen on the right.
Ni also issued a similar order.
These two elite infantry battalions know the role they will play in the coming battle, and they are racing against time.
The troops advanced in an offensive formation, and RPGs and mortars, currently used as infantry support weapons, were placed at the head of the team. They had to establish a position immediately after arriving at the edge of the forest to cover the infantry charge.
He hesitated considering that the German army had cut down a large number of trees and had not cleared them due to time constraints. The thick trunks were bound to become obstacles.
Join the German army and recover after the air raid. When faced with the large group of infantry emerging from the forest, they will definitely fight back! Lavrenty and Yevgeny firmly believe it.
After all, the Lager 3 is not a ground attack aircraft like the IL-2. They mainly attack exposed artillery positions and the exposed group of fleeing Eastern Battalion soldiers.
Many pilots destroyed the ground like a sting, leaving behind dense small craters and a pile of dead bodies. After that, they collectively turned to raise the nose of the aircraft and return to their mission.
Ivanov had no idea about the retaliatory action of the escort fighter aircraft against the enemy, and unexpectedly became a powerful assist! His lead aircraft was safe and sound, but the loss of three bombers was heart-wrenching. You must know that the way back home must pass through the area occupied by the Germans.
Cities and field airports have become German air bases, and flying against the rising sun is still very dangerous.
With no other choice, he could only order the entire fleet to pull up and fly high into the extreme airspace to avoid all obstructions.
Just as they left, gunpowder smoke was still floating on the messy German position, the sound of explosions seemed to still be echoing in the forest, and the wails of the injured could not be heard. Most of the German soldiers who had just saved their lives from the air raid rushed out from both sides of the trenches.
Climb up from the hole on the side.
In shock, all the soldiers immediately instinctively began to check their weapons. Because the soldier education they received was that they would prepare artillery fire before the Soviet attack, and then the infantry attack would follow.
Although I don’t know what the large number of Soviet aircraft flying overhead are doing, in short, the battle has broken out and the position has been attacked!
Losaheim, who had survived the desperate situation, calmly got up and shouted loudly at the regiment headquarters: "Gentlemen! I want to know the losses immediately. All battalion commanders, go to your battalions quickly! Start treating the wounded immediately!"
Fortunately, after receiving the order, Lotharheim held an emergency military meeting, and all the battalion-level officers of the infantry regiment were safe and sound. He knew that as long as the command system was not damaged, the casualties of lower-level soldiers and the attenuation of combat effectiveness were generally within a controllable range.
Inside!
Lawrence got up, shook the dust off his body, and asked: "Captain! Should I also go back to the first battalion to command my people?"
"No! You stay here, and let your deputy battalion commander take charge of the first battalion! Now you are my chief of staff!" Losaheim simply punched him in desperation: "You crow's mouth! We are the last to
What I was afraid of was the enemy’s air strikes, but I didn’t expect you to be right! Listen to the roar in the sky again, and those damn Soviet planes didn’t move forward! They were flying towards the east!”
The two looked at the dust-covered map in great surprise. Lawrence smoothed the table with his sleeves. The damaged map did not affect his research. Lawrence picked up the pencil that fell on the ground. Since he discovered the major change in the enemy plane's heading, he
Continuing the original route, he drew a new route for the Soviet fleet just above his own position.
"Now I'm confused about what the enemy means. We clearly saw that it was a large group of bombers. They flew thousands of miles and actually made a big turn above us! Are they going to bomb Bryansk?" Losa Hai
Mu tapped his position on the map hard, and couldn't help but continue to talk about what Lawrence in front of him had said at the meeting just now.
Suddenly he shuddered: "Could it be that the Soviet army's destination is the swamp to our south. They completed the airdrop and then returned."
For now, this is simply the most reliable explanation, but since no one has seen a large number of parachutes appearing, this inference is still questionable.
But the two of them no longer had to wonder, as the explosion broke their conversation.
…
The Lavrenti and Yevgeny battalions advanced the fastest among the entire army due to their route. They successfully arrived at the edge of the forest, and the large fallen trees became a big obstacle. Fortunately, they were able to carry out armed cross-country on weekdays.
But with the basic skills of these soldiers, they passed the roadblock easily.
At this time, the Soviet army also quickly set up their mortars. The small 50mm canisters can shoot small artillery shells up to 800 meters away. These were captured from the Germans and became a good cover.
arms.
Compared to this, the Soviet RPG is more powerful.
Before the all-out attack, Lavrenti paused and raised his binoculars to take a closer look at the situation of the German positions. Several forts were emitting black smoke, presumably the targets of the recent air raid. From the surface, it was impossible to see the German army.
He originally intended to wait for other troops, but was surprised to find that a group of soldiers were already charging!
Balzen was so confident that he concluded that the Germans had encountered an unbearable air attack. Even though they had built a long position and arranged their troops linearly, as long as the troops hit a single point of attack, it would be as simple as an embroidery needle going through cowhide.
The reconnaissance company directly under him prides itself on being the elite among the elite, and even has the honorary title of Death Squadron. Therefore, the battle situation has evolved into a situation where the Soviet army will miss the opportunity if they do not attack, so naturally they no longer care about the danger!
Compared with the reconnaissance company, the most fanatical one was the youth camp! The short stature of the group of people who charged the most fiercely was what Laflenji saw, and he quickly understood that these were a group of brats!
"Damn it! Kharkov, when will you and your people change your bad habits? You kids are going to die again?"
After blowing a mouthful of phlegm, he waved his hand and ordered the entire battalion of officers and soldiers to squat on the spot and stand by: "Davarish! Ula!" rw
