Lavrinenko could hardly believe that the words he heard in his ears were true. Seeing the last moment when the final goal was about to be completed, Malashenko suddenly asked to retreat? What kind of drama is this?
"Wait, are you right? Malashenko. We are now only one step away from piercing the German position. Isn't this the tactical goal we are preparing to achieve? Why now..."
"We'll talk nonsense later, retreat first! If you don't want to be blown to ashes by the artillery, retreat quickly, immediately!"
Malashenko does not like to repeat orders that have been clearly stated a second time, even to his good brother Lavrinenko, especially on a battlefield where time is tight and the battle situation is changing rapidly.
"Artillery? Okay, I understand. You heard me, Kurbalov, take the men and withdraw! Immediately!"
Malashenko's order was issued on the commander-level radio channel, so not only could he talk directly to Lavrinenko, but Kulbalov, who had not yet spoken, could also be a "listener" and learn about the situation.
Receive orders.
"Understood, all vehicle crews retreat immediately! Disengage with the enemy, quickly, quickly!"
The Red Army tank crews, who had already bitten the Germans' buttocks and were ready to pounce on them and start a killing spree, were eager to try and tear the Germans' positions into pieces. However, the actual order issued at the moment was not like this and was completely contrary to the situation.
.
Although they had different doubts and confusions in their hearts, the Red Army tank crews who received this latest change order still obeyed it.
It didn't take much effort to catch up with the Germans, and it was even easier to retreat and break away from the Germans.
Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division, which holds absolute initiative on the battlefield, has the power to freely choose whether to fight or withdraw. This is one of the privileges of the side with absolute superiority on the battlefield.
The German army, which had been beaten to a pulp and was almost on the verge of collapse, saw that the Russians actually started to slowly reverse and retreat actively with such a huge advantage. Even those who just kept making loud noises and giants
The 122 Heirloom main guns that were firing indiscriminately are all silent now. This operation is obviously to give priority to retreat, and will not fire unless there is a certain actual need.
"Schraun, the Russians...the Russians are retreating! They are retreating, they are all retreating like an ebbing tide! The infantry and tanks are retreating!"
The voice coming from the radio was quite exciting and exciting. Major Schroun, who suddenly heard this surprising news, even stayed in his commander's position with his earphones in hand and felt unbelievable.
"What did you say!? The Russians retreated?"
At this moment, Major Schroun and his command King Tiger heavy tank were preparing to drive to the starting position, and temporarily retreated to the back to rest.
In order not to affect the subsequent defensive battles and deployment of the position, Major Schroun had no choice but to take his men and choose to take a detour from the left and right sides of the position and take a long way to withdraw.
If all the withdrawn troops swarm onto the position like this, regardless of whether they are ignored or not, this will most likely cause chaos and loss of order in the position under the impact of the defeated army.
By then, not to mention resisting those Russians, holding on to the position and not being bulldozed by the Russians in a swarm of swarms will be a good thing, and it is worth burning incense.
Major Schroun, who knew this truth, did not complain or complain. In any case, his troops should move away from the edge of the position and cause trouble. He was busy doing this.
Major Schroun, originally he only thought that the Russian pursuers should not catch up too quickly, and that the troops who stayed behind could buy as much time as possible.
But who could have imagined that the Russians would give up the opportunity and choose to retreat when they were most likely to kill their own side. What happened to these Russians? Why did they suddenly change?
So abnormal?
Many questions suddenly popped up in Major Schroun's mind, almost all of which he couldn't figure out. In his haste, he probably wouldn't be able to get an accurate judgment in a short time, let alone an answer.
There is not much precious time left. For the time being, Major Schroun can't figure out what illness the Russian suddenly fell into. However, he knows that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is definitely worth seizing. Now is the time to quickly withdraw all troops to their starting positions.
Great time!
"Quickly, withdraw all the troops! Withdraw behind the starting position, and we will meet there! Don't provoke those retreating Russians again, let them go! We need a chance to breathe. The faster they withdraw, the better.
We just need to hurry up!"
"It's already being done, and the rear troops are also retreating. Oh, God, I really have to say that this is God's favor. I never thought that I could be so lucky in this land that has been abandoned by God. I have never thought that I could be so lucky in this land that has been abandoned by God.
I’ve thought about it.”
Good luck favored by God?
That is to say, Comrade Ma cannot hear what these German guys are talking about on the radio. If Malashenko can hear it now and still has a chance to speak, and can interrupt, he will probably have to ask the German guys.
One sentence: "Do you know that the God of this land is called Stalin? He will hit you with a hammer now. This is luck's favor."
Lavrinenko and Kulbalov had followed Malashenko's orders and led their troops to retreat to a distance away from the Germans and entered a standby state. While maintaining constant battlefield observation, they also maintained close contact with Malashenko.
We are in real-time contact with you.
"How is it going?"
Malashenko on the other end of the radio asked calmly about the situation, but Lavrinenko, who was quite familiar with Malashenko, could faintly hear a hint of expectation in his words.
"As you might think, those German armored troops who were about to be killed had no intention of entangling with us. As soon as we broke away from contact, these bastards greased the soles of their feet and sped away without firing a single shot.
!”
"You can already see that the German tanks have basically retreated to the back of the position. I have to say that we missed a good opportunity, Malashenko. If this is the result you want, you'd better have someone who can push the Germans
I’ll catch them all in one fell swoop, and I’m ready to send them all to heaven as a big surprise...Wait a minute, you don’t really have one, do you?”
Lavrinenko, who had a slightly longer reflex arc, suddenly remembered that Malashenko seemed to have mentioned the word "artillery" when he gave the order just now. But the situation and time at that time were too urgent, and he
