The German troops defending the position surrendered about half an hour after the tanks of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division rushed into the position.
The German army, which had been severely lacking in anti-tank weapons after all kinds of indiscriminate bombings, was unable to cause effective damage to the thick-skinned and thick-skinned Stalin heavy tanks. On the other hand, the Stalin heavy tanks parked on the position and served as fixed firepower points were
In a massive killing spree, the main guns and coaxial machine guns were used together, and the crazy firepower struck the German troops everywhere in the position, making them miserable.
The German soldiers did not think about destroying these annoying Stalin heavy tanks. Groups of German soldiers armed with iron fists, anti-tank grenades, and even explosive packs formed a team one after another under the cover of their comrades holding submachine guns and rifles.
A commando team launched a charge, trying to use the communication trenches and bomb craters extending in all directions to approach the Soviet tanks and destroy them.
Every move and little thought of the German army could not escape the eyes of the Red Army soldiers. In fact, the grassroots infantry commanders responsible for leading the attack had long expected that the Germans would launch an assault focusing on their own tanks. This was
The battlefield conditions that are taken into account in the planning are included in the tactical rehearsal simulation conducted in advance.
As for why it is expected, the reason is very simple.
If you were beaten so hard that you almost lost your position, when you launch a counterattack and try to drive the enemy out of your position, what would be your first priority target to destroy?
Enemy machine gun teams? Ordinary infantrymen armed with automatic weapons?
neither.
If these Soviet heavy tanks, which are like sharp knives that have penetrated deeply into the position and are still wedged in place, are not removed, any organized large-scale counterattack by the German army will be empty talk. As soon as there is the slightest sign of a large-scale troop build-up, the Germans will immediately
It will lead to ruthless large-caliber main artillery bombardment and heavy machine gun fire. This battle cannot be stopped even by the Aryan superhuman coalition, let alone mortal bodies.
The helpless German army could only use dispersed assault groups to try to destroy the troublesome Soviet heavy tanks. A pure infantry counter-charge battle without the support of armored troops would be so difficult.
Those Red Army soldiers who had long expected that the enemy would be like this immediately launched defenses on the spot after noticing the latest movements of their opponents. They relied on the nearby bunker terrain and the powerful direct fire support of their own heavy tanks.
Start a battle with automatic firepower output that is far stronger than your opponent's.
It only took two cigarettes to kill the German anti-tank team that tried to break out, leaving corpses strewn across the field and blood flowing like rivers.
Instead of eating the meat, they were hit by a bloody blow. The German army retreated in panic again. However, the German infantry who had just returned to the starting point were so embarrassed that they didn't even have time to take a breath. They clung to the Soviet infantry.
However, they took advantage of the enemy's retreat and pressed forward, leaving no time for the Germans to breathe. They pressed forward with a swift and fierce offensive.
The extremely exhausted German army had no choice but to continue to defend on the spot, using all available weapons at hand to start shooting at the enemy infantry. But the problem was that without half a cigarette, those who had been left slightly behind were
The Stalin heavy tanks in the latter positions would rumble and slowly move in front of them, waving their thick main guns and firing fiercely at the Germans.
The beaten German army was numb and could only continue to face the astonishing and rising casualty figures. If they did not want to lose this battle, they would organize a wave of anti-tank groups to attack the Russian monster tanks.
It is necessary, but then you will be back to the starting point over and over again.
As soon as the German anti-tank team comes closer, the Soviet infantry will immediately switch to a defensive posture and fire violently at the Germans with maximum firepower. And this level of small arms firepower will not only beat people into sieves, but if you move slightly,
Slow down, and it's possible to have your arms and legs broken on the spot by a swarm of bullets.
Don’t think that only large-caliber weapons can cause limb-fragmentation effects. The same body part can still be hit by multiple shots from small- and medium-caliber weapons. On the other hand, this can also explain from the side the firepower of the opponent the Germans are facing at this moment.
How terrifying.
After several rounds of brutal beatings, in which they could not gain even the slightest advantage, the German defenders, who were already a little scared of being beaten, finally understood.
The troops we encountered today are different from any Soviet troops we have encountered in the past. Not only do they have extremely powerful firepower and advanced equipment configurations, but their tactics and combat experience are also completely different and unusual.
The Soviet troops were even much higher than the German army's own elite troops.
Take this tactic of deliberately bleeding people, not seeking a quick victory but seeking to maximize the enemy's casualties. The German army, which had been overwhelmed, had never even heard of it in previous battles.
I have never known a group of idiots who can play infantry-tank coordination so well. It is as if the tank itself has a life and soul, and can communicate with the infantry at any time and coordinate tactics.
This disgusting bloodletting tactic based on strong and invincible strength, the German defenders on the position at this moment could not find any effective way to deal with it.
If you rush, you will only die.
Keep it, you can't keep it at all.
Escape? Are you kidding? Do you expect two legs to escape the steel tracks driven by iron pulleys? The Russians can just deactivate the main gun and machine gun and just step on the accelerator, they can crush all their own enemies into pulp!
After much thought, the German commander, holding a telescope and feeling that there was no hope left, felt that the only feasible way in front of him was to surrender.
"Comrade Commander! The Germans have surrendered!!! Directly ahead! They raised the white flag!"
Malashenko, who was holding the commander's periscope in his hand, could hear Iushkin's excited voice clearly echoing in his ears. His face was calm. Malashenko, who had long been accustomed to this, just smiled coldly.
"That's it for today, three defensive positions! Pack up and get ready to get off and have dinner!"
There was no need for the comrade division commander to issue any unnecessary orders. The Red Army soldiers who saw the enemy surrendering with white flags naturally knew what to do.
"Be honest! You fascist lackey! Do you want to be shot?"
"Let's go! Don't dawdle, hurry up!"
"Get out of here! Be honest! Throw out all the weapons you have!"
Beside trenches, beside bomb craters, in traffic trenches...
Red Army soldiers holding steel guns were everywhere, shouting at the German soldiers who had raised their hands to surrender.
Although the Germans who have raised their hands in surrender may not understand what these Russian words mean, they can always understand what the stern expressions on their faces, mixed with anger and hatred, mean.
Lifting up is better than anything else at this time.
