The German 707th Division was a second-line unit that participated in the war against the Soviet Union. Its division commander was Schneider. Because the unit suffered a major blow, his unit was ordered to move closer to Mozyr. The division headquarters is now located in Kurdistan.
Tower Town.
This unit was attacked by the Soviet army in the town of Luvanka and suffered a disastrous defeat. The devastating warehouse exploded. More than 1,000 troops were killed and more than 2,000 were injured to varying degrees. Some unlucky ones were burned, and some were injured.
The air waves blew away and injured the bones.
It stands to reason that since this unit has suffered such a heavy blow, they should return to the rear to rest and recuperate.
Unexpectedly, the German base camp continued to require them to escort goods. In response to the failure of division commander Schneider, the German army made no move to replace him.
"The head of state is too busy to take care of our second- and third-rate troops." Schneider said his guess to his subordinates. He received the punishment and his position remained unchanged.
However, the army has been severely weakened, with more than 3,000 personnel reduced. Fortunately, the entire team still has over 10,000 troops.
They began to be frightened, and they had to continue to be responsible for escorting various supplies, and trucks were still traveling on the road. The German army learned their lesson, and they took the initiative to set up defenses on both sides of the road and conduct searches in a small team to ensure the safety of the road.
Therefore, the two companies of German troops that Yang Mingzhi encountered were the troops that captured the guerrillas. The battle was so sudden that the guys carrying radios on their backs were shot dead before the enemy had time to contact their headquarters.
.
Schneider was sitting at the headquarters and was responsible for the normal dispatch of supplies. He was in a good mood, and his soldiers gradually came out of the haze of the big explosion. Of course, Schneider himself was very lucky. If he had not escaped without permission, he would have been bombed too.
Into a wisp of blue smoke.
Once I thought of this, my originally good mood turned sour. "These damn stragglers, you did a good thing, forcing me to use cruel methods to deal with you."
Bang bang bang, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in!"
An officer came in. This man named Schultz was responsible for liaising with various search teams. Now, he wanted Schneider to report an anomaly.
"Sir, our third and seventh teams, who were responsible for searching Bilboskaya Village, have not reported to us yet. Other troops have reported their search status today, but these two troops have
We have lost contact at this moment.”
Schneider sat up alertly and asked, "When were the last reports from those two teams?"
"It's ten o'clock in the morning. According to the requirements, they must report to us again before the sun sets."
Hearing this, a bad feeling came to his heart. Schneider looked at Schultz warily, "The people sent out, do they have enough batteries? Also, will the woods cause interference to the radio?"
?"
Schultz immediately shook his head at these questions. "The battery they brought is enough for four days. As for the radio interference in the forest, this can be eliminated. We can't contact them now. Either the radio was accidentally damaged or they were attacked."
Was he really being attacked? Schneider stood up abruptly.
Although Schultz did not believe that the troops had received an attack, he did not send back an attack report. "If the Soviets suddenly appeared, they would not be able to wipe out nearly 200 of us quickly. The battle will take time, and they will definitely report the situation."
A trace of contempt flashed across Ertz's face.
"That's the truth. But what if it is really an attack? We have already suffered a big loss. Facts have proved that there is indeed a strong Soviet army in the forest. They are probably hiding in the swamps in the south, where it is easy to
It is difficult to defend and attack.
During these days, all we eliminated were Soviet stragglers, so-called guerrillas who were stunned by hunger. They robbed our convoy mainly for food, and some of the villagers you interrogated. Obviously the Soviets
Already robbed by their own soldiers."
Hearing this, Schultz chuckled. "Barbarians are barbarians. The Third Reich's offensive is fierce, and the enemies have begun to kill each other."
"Let's not talk about the guerrillas robbing ordinary people in the Soviet Union." Schneider continued, "I guess something must have happened in that village. Now even if the sun has set, you have to order your people to move closer to that village. I'm worried,
All soldiers in these two squads have been killed."
Schultz saluted the military salute, reincarnated and left. He himself did not believe the division commander's guesses, after all, they were too shocking. How could a team of 200 people just disappear? He ordered the search teams to launch operations.
Therefore, there was a time lag here. When the nearby German troops entered the village and saw a messy scene, Yang Mingzhi had already left with the large troops. The distance between the two armies was very far, but Yang Mingzhi did not know that there was also a mess in the forest.
Hide these heavily armed German troops.
In this way, Schultz rushed to the division office early in the morning to report the shocking news to the division commander who had just woken up.
"They're all dead! Those two teams, more than 180 people, are all dead."
After hearing this, Schneider immediately became excited. He asked again and got accurate information. That is, the two search teams were wiped out and the village was deserted.
Everyone in the division headquarters was extremely angry when they heard the news, and some even shouted and cursed, wanting to give the Soviets more color.
"Perhaps we should change our behavior now." Schneider pretended to be calm and sat in his seat. "It's time for the Soviets to experience what fear is and what retribution is for resistance. From now on, every time one of our soldiers dies,
Two Soviets had to be hanged. For every wounded soldier, one Soviet had to be shot.
In the past, I was too polite to these guys, but now I must follow the orders of the head of state. The security obstacles on both sides of the highway must be cleared, and all guerrillas and Soviets who are unwilling to cooperate must be killed."
This is a very cruel order. In that dimension, the German 707th Division did a good job in massacring civilians. In the battle to clear out the guerrillas, the division wiped out more than 10,000 people in the first battle.
People. But are these people all guerrillas? The answer is naturally no. For this so-called glorious victory, the majority of the killings were of ordinary people, including young children.
This seems to be inevitable for the 707th Division. The division commander of this dimension is Schneider, but he is still a very stubborn Nazi and an executioner. Coupled with the shame of being severely defeated before, and the inexplicable behavior of this more than 100 troops
was killed, he must take revenge, and his target was the battle axe.
There are actually Soviets in Kuta Town, and these people are prisoners. Ordinary residents have either fled long ago or have been killed. Kuta Town is just one of several small towns occupied by the German army, which temporarily hoards a large amount of supplies.
Because prisoners captured on the front line were temporarily detained here and then transported to the rear. There were too many prisoners in Mozyri, so this town was divided into more than a thousand prisoners.
"One hundred and eighty people were killed, and accordingly 360 Soviet people had to pay the price. I ordered that 360 prisoners be shot this afternoon."
Schneider's order was very sudden, but everyone was eager for revenge. Besides, these Soviet prisoners were used as slaves and a kind of "consumables." The front line was still transporting new prisoners here, and some were executed to make room for them.
OK.
In this way, the bloody massacre by the German army began, and these guys vented their anger.
Yang Mingzhi and others who were marching towards Kuta town did not know this. Moreover, the more than 2,000 troops usually focused on marching in the forest. They ran much faster than Chernenko's guerrillas, so that the old man
The guy was complaining endlessly.
"You must have eaten well on weekdays. Our equipment is much less than yours, but we are still trying our best to catch up." After saying this, Chernenko was out of breath.
Yang Mingzhi supported this man and even introduced the two girls in a showy tone. "You guys, the main reason is that the training method is wrong. Our 284th Guards Division has been practicing hard in forest combat skills. Look, these two
Girls can keep up with our large army."
Star Tao and Natasha laughed. In fact, the girls were also very tired. They wanted to be strong and pretend to be relaxed.
In this way, Chernenko said he didn't want to continue the attack. If he followed this speed, he would be able to reach the town of Kuta in the evening. This speed seemed to be too fast, and the troops had to make a battle plan.
Yang Mingzhi looked at his watch. It happened to be around noon. He didn't know that over in Kuta Town, the frightened 707th Division thought that the annihilation of its troops was a very bad signal, and the entire division began to defend.
At noon, the troops began to eat dry food. The soldiers rested in place, and some stood guard around them.
The midday in September was quite cool, and the temperature dropped quickly after autumn. Yang Mingzhi leaned close to his wife. He also knew that during this period, due to the needs of the war, he had to be serious. Isn't this a bit harsh on his wife?
?
"It's getting cold now, so you better not take off your coat. I know you're very hot."
Yang Mingzhi covered his wife's clothes, and then hugged the girl in his arms. Exaggeratedly, as a thirty-year-old man, he behaved like a child this time.
Star Tao was amused. "Okay, husband, my good husband, you will hug me so hard."
"Okay, I'll just let you go." Yang Mingzhi ordered, "Be good and I'll rub your shoulders."
Now Yang Tao and Natasha love each other like sisters. Once they hear this arrangement from their husband, their sister has to enjoy it too. Yang Mingzhi shrugged, "Okay, Natasha, I'll give you a shoulder rub soon."
From Yang Mingzhi's point of view, he is much younger than the two girls. Star Tao is better, and the older one is more like a husband and wife, or they are called brother and sister on weekdays. As for Natasha, she is too young, and her own
It's as if he could be her father.
These two girls will definitely have a major tactical advantage in the battle, such as Natasha's precise shooting. While squeezing the child's immature shoulders, Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but start talking. "My Natasha, my child. When
When the battle begins, you have to play to your strengths. Hitting the driver's window of an enemy tank will turn the enemy driver blind and their tank into a clay-footed giant."
Natasha kept turning her head. Rather than obeying the seizure, Natasha felt as if she had a new family at this moment.
Just as the three of them were getting tired of each other, Yelentina staggered away.
"Okay, Berekov, playing house with the children is over now. You don't need to look at me. There is a situation over at the radio station. Our reconnaissance company has discovered the enemy."
When Yang Mingzhi heard this, he stood up immediately. He had to deal with official business at the critical moment. He kept in contact with the reconnaissance company and got a strange message. That is, he found a military vehicle, and the goods escorted on the vehicle were very special - they were people, specific
Said they were Soviet prisoners of war.
"There are actually prisoners of war?" This was beyond Yang Mingzhi's expectation. He ordered the reconnaissance company to continue observing until evening, when the team arrived at the outer edge of the highway before making plans.
