Chapter 645 This is Novgomel's first line of defense
At this time, the telegraph operator frantically rushed into the division office with his latest information, and even broke through the guards' obstruction. 23US.
Fastest update
This sudden situation directly made Yelentina, who was in a relaxed mood, nervous and subconsciously pulled out her pistol.
But when I turned around, I found that the person shouting was actually the telegraph operator.
"Nikita! What's wrong with you? You're on duty now. You don't know this is the division headquarters?"
"Yes! I know!" Telegraph operator Nikita quickly sent the translated information up.
Yelentina took the dim yellow paper. There were a bunch of number combinations on it, and under each line were the corresponding letters to spell out the words.
She carefully read every word, and the more she read, the more frightened she became, and she immediately returned to her "queen"-like posture.
A woman in the room suddenly burst into laughter. Immediately, the sleeping Yang Mingzhi and Yevlov twitched as if they had been electrocuted, and the stall cover was kicked off.
"What's going on!? What's going on?!" Yang Mingzhi, who was already lying on the ground, asked around.
A pair of leather boots was right in front of him, and looking up, he saw Yelentina's pretty face, but now it was more ferocious.
Seeing that both of them were awake, Yelentina directly held up the paper in her hand and said: "My comrade division commander and comrade chief of staff, this is an urgent message from our frontline soldiers! The Germans have begun to attack!"
"What? Those idiots really dare to attack? Come and attack us?" The sleepy Yevlov was completely doubtful. He sat on the bedside and asked again. After learning that the German army was sending troops, he did not hesitate.
fury.
"Idiot, don't you all doubt the reason why they haven't sent us a telegram for several hours? Because they have been fighting the Germans for several hours! Take a look at this information, and then study what to do!"
Yevlov grabbed the telegram manuscript, and Yang Mingzhi knew that the situation was serious and hurried over.
It’s very clear what happened during the few hours when Balzen lost contact.
"Our air force attacked the German position, our army pursued the victory and completed the occupation, and was forced to retreat due to the German counterattack. As a result, a hand-to-hand battle broke out between our army's forest defense line and the German army! What is going on? Balzen, are you really this guy?
Did you make such a big move?" Yang Mingzhi held his head, eyes as wide as eggs.
Yevlov held the piece of paper with trembling hands, because it was written on the back that Balzen's troops successfully blocked the first wave of enemies and suffered heavy casualties. The man did not specify how many casualties he had, but considering that
It was the most elite unit in the army, and Balzen could admit that the casualties were high, and the enemy was definitely not a good person.
To make matters worse, enemy prisoners confessed that four more battalions were attacking the position.
"Berekov! Have you read the telegram? Make a decision now! The enemy's army is about to attack!" Yelentina asked anxiously.
Yang Mingzhi rubbed his head. In just this moment, his forehead was covered with sweat. How did the battle situation become like this? Could it be that Balzen, with more than a thousand men, at most three dissatisfied infantry battalions, could
The German position was breached? As a result, they encountered a counterattack and suffered heavy casualties?
So are the combat effectiveness of these German troops strong or weak? How is Balzen's current situation? And his wife and Natasha, how are those two girls?
With these questions and the news of Yelentina, Yang Mingzhi stood up decisively and ordered to Nikita who was also waiting: "Quick! Comrade telegraph operator, we must talk to Balzen. It's best to
Use plain language!”
…
The people left behind in the ruins of Homnich acted as signal repeaters, so Balzen and the division headquarters were able to complete wireless communications. However, after all, in this era, the communication between two telegraph machines had to span 80 kilometers.
The sound is sizzling.
At this moment, it was past one in the afternoon, and Lavrenti had just received information about a large-scale march towards the four battalions of the enemy in Barzenmin.
The situation was extremely urgent, so Balzen did not bother to deal with the shooting of fifty prisoners of war by his comrades. Since the enemy's second round of attack was imminent, this matter was naturally reported to the division headquarters.
In fact, Balzen has already thought about it. The responsibility for ordering the troops to attack the German positions, the responsibility for the enemy's surprise attack on the position, and the responsibility for breaking out in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy are all his own. The only one who can indeed be responsible is himself, an elite force.
With nearly half of the casualties handed into his own hands, he now only has one hope, that is, to withdraw all the troops.
In the telegram, he did not make a request to retreat. There were too many things that happened today, which cannot be explained in a few words. After not communicating for several hours, the division headquarters must be very anxious. When they get the information, they will definitely ask directly, really directly into the microphone.
Roar.
After all, there are more than 2,000 German troops, and they will arrive around two in the afternoon!
Therefore, Balzen, Lavrenti, and Yevgeny made two preparations, that is, they joined the division headquarters and ordered to defend the position. Then the soldiers would not hesitate to fight the enemy bloody to the end. If the division headquarters decided to retreat, the troops could also take all the troops with them.
The wounded were evacuated without hesitation.
There are only two options: fight or withdraw.
As a Soviet soldier, you must hold your position until death. This is a clause in the infantry drill. The soldiers of Killing Red Eyes also know very well that this line of defense is the first stop of Novgomel's defense. Guarding here are tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians guarding the base area.
If you want to fight, fight without fear even if you die.
Balzen had already warned the other two: "Comrades, we will probably have to fight another battle with the Germans. After all, we are still recovering materials. This is the time when our army is at its weakest. The troops are too scattered.
If the German army takes advantage of the situation and invades, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. Therefore, we must block the enemy. As long as we delay until our troops are assembled, we are not afraid of how many enemies come."
His views were fully supported by Lavrenti and Yevgeny. A bloody man is not afraid of death. It is a great honor for a soldier to die in a glorious battle. What's more, this battle is to defend the people and defend the last Soviet-controlled area in Belarus.
The three of them had ordered the soldiers to collect all available supplies and prepare for a new round of battle against the enemy. Although everyone was very tired, they could no longer be tired at this time. Including Yang Guo and Natasha, the two of them rested for a while.
was awakened.
"Let them come, not just two thousand people, Bessika, you and I will kill another hundred of them!"
Natasha was in high spirits, as if her drowsiness had disappeared without a trace.
She does have such capital, because Ruslan brought more than a hundred original Mosin Nagant bullets.
The seriously wounded were gathered behind the position, and the lightly wounded were simply bandaged before picking up their weapons again. Both the Soviet and German armies consumed a lot of ammunition. As the Soviet army regained its position, the ammunition shortage problem was suddenly solved. The entire army stepped up
Although the wounded were slightly injured and could not get out of the firing line, there were still more than 700 troops capable of fighting. The losses were terrible, but the morale of the troops was not broken.
Among the soldiers, a tragic atmosphere was spreading, and the infected were all determined to hold on to their positions until death.
Of course, most of the soldiers were determined to fight to the death, but there were only one or two who thought they had found an opportunity to kill the invaders crazily.
This is naturally the case for Yang Tao and Natasha, and even more so for the soldiers from the youth camp who are red-eyed with killings. After learning that Natasha and Besica are frantically refreshing their records again, and that their best friend Nina actually killed ten people, only one
Shula, who had a good record, suddenly felt unhappy.
Competition is spreading among these girls, and they may encounter an unexpected blow to the German soldiers who storm here.
So will a new round of blocking war happen? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m. to read
