Chapter 2221 Crossing swords

"Roger, this is the division headquarters, please speak."

"Foxhound report! I see a large group of Nazis swarming here! A large number of tanks, assault guns, and infantry, they are rushing towards me through my telescope! The current direction is towards the division headquarters, according to the

This speed can be killed within ten minutes! Emergency warning! Please prepare for battle, repeat, please prepare for battle! Also request further action orders!"

That is, less than half a minute ago, the high-power radio station set up in the field division headquarters received an urgent report and combat warning from the reconnaissance company directly under the division headquarters. This sudden news directly interrupted Malashenko and his political commissar comrades.

dialogue.

It was also a coincidence that as soon as Malashenko sent out many reconnaissance troops, including the reconnaissance company directly under the division headquarters, this German stick who was not long-sighted and liked to rush to join in the fun immediately pounced on him, and his speed was really real.

Fast enough. It can be seen that they belong to the kind of troops that have just been assembled, and then changed from a rapid marching posture to a fighting posture and then rushed over in a hurry, for fear that time would wait for no one and there would be no way to escape.

First of all, Malashenko must be thankful that he sent the scouts out in time. If it had been a little later, even ten minutes later, the ensuing battle would have been a surprise attack by German soldiers without any warning.

Even if the leader's family has a great cause and strong strength, this is not a reason to fight a battle where they are surprised by German sticks. Malashenko does not like this bad feeling of being caught off guard.

After a brief period of rejoicing, the next step to seize the critical warning time brought by the scouts must be carried out immediately, without delaying for another minute.

After confirming the news, Malashenko, together with his political commissar comrades, quickly came to stand in front of the map of the war zone. Malashenko's eyes quickly moved around the map to gain insight, and he quickly made a judgment.

"It seems that we want to break through forcefully and don't want to waste time by exploring the fog of war in other directions."

"The location of the division headquarters is right in front of the Nasuka Infantry Division that just defeated the Nasuka Infantry Division. These fascists are so brave. They fell like a dog in this place and now they want to come back and do it again. Okay, then.

I wish these fascist lackeys all their wishes come true, and I, Malashenko, will personally fulfill them."

The remnants of the 41st Armored Corps who were facing the enemy clearly did not give our Comrade Ma any face. They were beaten to pieces in the same place, and after escaping in embarrassment once, they now dare to come back and try a second time.

The subtext here is obviously "Come on, lie! Come on, sneak attack! I don't want to accept it, let's fight again, let's see how I beat you this time!".

Otherwise, the Germans who were frightened by the attack should at least change their route and try to go around from the left and right sides of Malashenko's division.

Although taking a roundabout way and not walking in a straight line will definitely waste valuable time, there may be Soviet troops in the other two directions that have not yet become organized to intercept, right? It's better to try your luck than to eat shit in plain sight.

Ah, then luck is also part of strength.

Now that the matter has come to a point, the Germans have clearly shown that they don't take our prince Ma seriously and don't take it seriously. Malashenko, who felt that he was being looked down upon, also got angry on the spot.

Fortunately, Malashenko now has enough troops to deal with it. Instead of spreading all the troops out to fill the width of the battlefield, he has become the bare commander. The main force of Kurbanov's first brigade has been following him.

At Malashenko's side, he obeyed orders and was also responsible for guarding the division headquarters. Most of the main force of the brigade was on standby as a mobile defense force in the central direction.

Most of the brigades are more or less, but at least they are subordinate brigades at the leadership division level, not the usual brigades of the Red Army Guards. If you want to talk about combat effectiveness alone, most of these brigades are better than one

It is no exaggeration to say that ordinary Guards tank divisions can still fight. After all, the hardware indicators and personnel quality are obvious.

So even though he knew that a large number of German thugs were swarming towards him, Malashenko was still completely honest and even wanted to laugh.

As long as he holds down the fox tail of these German sticks and drags their main breakout force into the battlefield, Malashenko can immediately gather the main force of the divisions from the other two directions and rush over quickly. To be specific, he can use three

Attack from the road and unite the troops together to completely kill these shameless gangsters, who even slapped their noses on their faces.

To take a step back, as long as we can gather and annihilate the main force of the remaining 41st Armored Corps, especially the main force of the armored forces.

Then the remaining Nazi remnants actually don’t matter so much. Running away is not unacceptable at all. After all, no one can completely guarantee that not a single enemy will be let go in the encirclement and annihilation battle. Like Cherka in this timeline

The outcome of the Siege and Annihilation War changed drastically due to the addition of Malashenko. The fight was so successful that it could be called a textbook example. Even the Viking Division, one of the Four Elites of the SS, was encircled by him.

But in the end, there were still a small number of German troops who either broke through the encirclement or were missed by the Red Army. In short, they got lucky and escaped. However, this still could not change the fact that the Battle of Cherkasy was an extremely successful encirclement and annihilation.

The nature and outcome of the war.

As long as the main armored force of the remnants of the 41st Armored Corps, that is, the last remaining armored division, is eliminated, the biggest obstacle to Malashenko and the leader's subsequent deep penetration has actually been removed and no longer exists.

.

As long as this main tactical goal is achieved, then the battle can be judged as a success. The remaining German infantry who are half-dead and unable to survive will just run away. Anyway, don't expect to catch up with the leader's division on two legs.

The tracks are useless even if you run out, and they do not pose any hindrance or threat to follow-up operations.

With the firm idea that he must break the backbone of the enemy in front of him, Malashenko immediately led the main force of the Kulbalov brigade, which was already prepared and on standby, facing the direction of the German attack.

Pounce and attack with attack.

It was also because he received the accurate enemy intelligence from the scouts in advance that Malashenko was able to give these ungrateful Nazis an appetizer of steel broth to warm up the battlefield before actually engaging the enemy.

Boom boom boom——

Boo hoo hoo hoo——

As usual, there was an overwhelming firepower attack, from the division and brigade isu-152\a self-propelled artillery, the dense rain of fire weaved by the Katyusha rocket launcher, instantly like a big net, directly covering the standard steps.

The tanks were in coordinated attack formation, on top of the head of the German vanguard, which was charging menacingly.

The scattered flames scorched the frozen and snowy ground, and the broken projectile fragments set off waves of metal storms, sweeping everything in contact with them.

The Germans, who thought they were the attackers, were caught off guard by this round of surprise firepower. The relatively dense attack formation with concentrated troops to break through was immediately like a piece of cheese that had been gnawed by a mouse, with a large piece missing.

But something even more unprepared has just begun. What is truly frightening is not the extremely ferocious Soviet field artillery, but those who run at full speed against the ice and snow, sweeping up white storms, like ferocious beasts emerging from the cage.

A large Russian steel behemoth rushed towards it.
