The situation has become very obvious. The German army does not intend to hold on to the end in Prokhorovka. The real purpose of the Second SS Armored Corps is to eat all the Soviet troops in the entire theater in one go!
Malashenko didn't know where these Germans got such a big appetite. This was completely different from the Battle of Prokhorovka in the existing history, let alone trying to use the tactics in the existing history to face the current situation.
This is unrealistic and cannot solve the problem at all. Malashenko's advantage as a time traveler can be said to be of no use at the moment.
"We should evacuate immediately, Comrade Brigade Commander! The enemy's air attack has just ended, and there might be a wave of prepared ground counterattacks waiting for us. We must evacuate quickly before that to avoid being entangled by the enemy. Otherwise,
There is a danger of being surrounded!"
Political Commissar Petrov looked serious and anxious, and Malashenko, who was holding a telegraph newspaper and frowning, had a similar expression.
Comrade Political Commissar is right. The air raid that just passed is just the beginning for the present. The most terrifying thing is not the huge casualties suffered due to the air raid, but the fact that they were just repelled, or pretended to be repulsed.
Guard Flag Division.
Once the Guards Division rushes up and strikes suddenly at this time, it does not even need to cause huge casualties to the Stalin Guards 1st Heavy Tank Brigade. It only needs to entangle Malashenko, trip up and drag him down.
here.
Then what will happen next is almost foreseeable. Once the Skeleton Division and the Imperial Division have finished dealing with their respective enemies, they will come from the flanks and perform a good show of "Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu" for Malashenko.
That kind of situation is really a disaster!
Malashenko himself has no idea whether Stalin's 1st Guards Heavy Tank Brigade counts as Lu Bu at the moment.
But what is certain is that these three SS elite divisions are not made up of mud. They are not Guan Yu, but at least Zhang Fei. In a field situation, relying on such a simple position to be surrounded by these three divisions, Malashenko felt
If it really comes to such a time, even the gods will not be able to save themselves.
"Inform the troops to assemble immediately! Take away all the things you can take away. Don't throw away all the things you can't take away as treasures. Don't take those tanks that can't be repaired. Tell Karamov not to feel bad about those broken vehicles and simply clean them up.
Get out quickly!"
"I'll leave the brigade headquarters to you. I'm going to take a look at Kurbalov's battalion. In the battle just now, another battalion suffered a lot of losses. I'm worried that they can't keep up with the speed of the troops gathering. There are things to deal with.
Too much!"
Knowing that there was not much time left, Malashenko did not hesitate any more. He briefly discussed the key points with Commissar Petrov and immediately planned to take action. But before Malashenko could take a step forward, a sudden shout came out.
It instantly resounded in my ears.
"The German tanks, they are coming!"
This world is often like this. The more you are afraid of something, the more worried you are, and the reality like ordinary naughty children will bring you something.
Malashenko, who could hardly believe what he had just heard, looked back and looked into the distance in the direction of the sound.
A large group of German tanks, which seemed to be numerous but it was unclear how many there were, were lining up like wild beasts emerging from their cages after the zoo wall collapsed, rushing towards the recently occupied position at high speed.
"What a stinker! These stupid bastards want to keep me here, damn!"
Just as Political Commissar Petrov feared, the Guards Division, unwilling to be left alone, finally chose to take advantage of the residual power of the air raid and did not miss every opportunity to attack. The intention was very obvious to attack Maratha.
Shen Ke should stay here and be completely entangled. Otherwise, if he really wanted to commit suicide, he would have already taken action as early as the offensive and defensive stage of the position.
Malashenko, who had a telescope hanging on his chest, immediately raised the telescope and looked at the German troops that were already rushing towards him. The Panther tank that rushed at the front jumped into view first. But the strange thing is that these Panthers
Part of the tank is actually still painted in earthy yellow as the factory default paint. There is no summer two-color camouflage common to the German army on the whole body. It looks like big dirt bags galloping on the ground.
"You come here to fuck me even if you don't have any paint. How fucking do you want to eat me in one go?"
Complaints are complaints, and the anger on his lips does not mean that Malashenko cannot see the essence behind the appearance in front of him.
The former SS First Class Assault Group Captain told Malashenko that the three main SS divisions in the Prokhorovka theater, including the Guards Division, have all been supported by a batch of new tanks in varying numbers.
.
According to the captain of the first-level assault brigade, these tanks were all new vehicles that had just arrived at the front line from Germany via railway transportation lines. They were delivered and received from last night to this morning without any prior notice.
After training and reorganization in advance, they are a group of completely new cars, and it is completely normal for the new cars to only have factory default paintwork and not to wear field camouflage.
The Guards Standard Division has dispatched such a newly acquired armored force. Malashenko, who puts himself in the shoes of the Guards Division, feels that if he were the commander of the Guards Flag Division, he would not be able to do anything unless it was absolutely necessary.
Why would such a force, which may have unknown big problems, be sent to the front line so hastily to make its debut?
It is one thing to get the equipment, but it is another thing to complete the training of the equipment and actually form combat effectiveness. There is a causal relationship between the former and then the latter, and the span of perspective between cause and effect is not the smallest.
The huge, brand-new, and subversively designed Panther tank will definitely require more familiarity and practice by the armored soldiers who have upgraded from Type 3 to Type 4.
All in all, any commander in his right mind would never send such an unreliable force to the front line at such a time.
But now that the Standard Guard Division has indeed done this, Malashenko does not think that the commander opposite is a fool. In this way, following the classic truth that when things go wrong, there must be monsters, the Standard Guard Division is showing off
The fact that the family is serious about trying everything to keep the 1st Heavy Tank Brigade of Stalin's Guards behind is of course very clear.
"Get ready to fight! It's our turn to defend. We must not let the Germans overwhelm us. There are too many tanks!"
Which side has too many tanks? Malashenko did not say it clearly, but Commissar Petrov understood very well what Malashenko wanted to express. The way the Germans were fighting in the dusty road was indeed quite large.
