Chapter 1759 The bloody battle comes again (Part 1)
What can be called a crazy fighting scene was actually staged in front of him. Lavrinenko, who insisted on directing the battle from the commander's position, saw this scene clearly.
It was only at this time that Lavrinenko finally determined one thing. He might have underestimated the opponents in front of him and underestimated the fighting will of this group of Grossdeutschland divisions, known as the elite of the Wehrmacht.
If there are too many downwind battles, people will inevitably have some misconceptions. For example, none of the rubbish in the Wehrmacht can cause trouble to our own side, which is far worse than the life-threatening scum of the SS.
But judging from the real situation he has encountered so far, Lavrinenko clearly knows that he must have been wrong, and that his mistake was quite outrageous.
Even in the current year of 1944, there are still existences in the Wehrmacht that make me feel troublesome and troublesome. You must not treat all the Wehrmacht equally. These bastards in front of you still have the courage to fight to the death and the ability to fight to the death.
will.
The Grossdeutschland Division is very capable, but this does not mean that the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division, which is also an elite division, cannot defeat it. If not, Colonel Klose would not have to lead a large force in such a panic.
Come on, run away now.
To put it bluntly, this was the person who was scared away by Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division's three-pronged offensive posture. But Colonel Klose didn't know that the enemy he was facing was the famous and fierce enemy.
The famous "Iron Butcher" Malashenko is it.
If he had known about it, he would have been scared away faster and earlier.
But...the key to the problem lies precisely in time.
Lavrinenko was convinced that the offensive troops he led, even without the assistance of Malashenko and Kulbalov, could easily kill the scumbags in front of them who were left behind to die, but
This obviously took longer than expected.
The frantic flight and evacuation of large German troops is still continuing. What Lavrinenko lacks most now is time.
The enemy possesses mobility that is not inferior to our own, or even better than ours. The Grossdeutschland Division, which has abandoned all burdensome baggage and supplies, has already used the fastest escape speed, highly mechanized wheeled vehicles and armor.
The vehicle blessing makes its escape speed extremely fast.
Lavrinenko could now see almost no trace of the German army, and could only see the distant dust rising on the horizon.
If the current stalemate continues and new breakthroughs are not achieved, Lavrinenko knows very clearly that this will inevitably lead to inevitable defeat in the next battle. At least Malashenko has issued an order.
The mission goal of "holding the enemy back" given to me cannot be completed.
Being anxious is the most realistic interpretation of Lavrinenko's state of mind at this moment, but there are some things that cannot be solved by being anxious and angry.
The desperate resistance of the rear troops of the Grossdeutschland Division continued. The Third Battalion, which had been given the task of expediting a breakthrough, could not break through this damn defense no matter how hard it tried.
Facing the Soviet heavy tanks that had roared onto the position, the infantrymen of the Grossdeutschland Division, who were almost in a state of madness, tried their best to block everything they could.
The weapons used to carry out anti-tank attacks are no longer limited to the Panzerfaust and the Tank Killer at this moment.
Panzergrenadiers with sufficient experience in anti-tank combat are divided into multiple combat groups, with tacit cooperation and division of labor.
The support group, which was specifically responsible for suppressing the Soviet infantry and with machine guns as the core firepower, stopped and went, almost changing places at a stroke, scattering like guerrillas scurrying in the fields, forcing this whole situation to end.
The defensive and blocking war turned into a regional guerrilla war.
The Red Army soldiers who were following their own tanks were overwhelmed by the Germans' hammers here and there, and their fire in all directions, almost as if they were shooting black guns in secret.
It’s not that the firepower of the Red Army infantry is inferior to that of the German infantry. It’s just that the German infantry’s tactics of using various bunkers and newly dug shallow trenches to run around in the blind areas of the field of vision and sneaking cold shots really made the Red Army soldiers
They are too passive, giving people a feeling of frustration and powerlessness that they have firepower advantages but cannot use them.
You have just focused your firepower and killed a German machine gunner. Two more German machine gun teams can appear at the same time far apart on the left and right. The Red Army soldiers who leaned out of the cover of the tank and opened fire even
Before he could flash back, the extremely fast-firing mg42 machine gun fired a barrage like water, knocking people down on the spot and dying in a pool of blood.
The result was that the Soviet army, which launched the attack and had an absolute advantage, suffered considerable losses, while the German army, which was a passive and disadvantaged defender, suffered even greater losses.
To put it bluntly, the current close-quarters battle is a battle of pure attrition.
Whichever side loses all its people first or dies first until morale collapses and loses combat effectiveness, the side that loses will be the first to exit the battle.
The small-arms fighting between infantrymen is so cruel and bloody, and it goes without saying that the German Panzergrenadier teams that specialize in anti-tank will only become more brutal when the collision of flesh and steel occurs, without exception.
A German infantryman holding a magnetic anti-tank grenade is waiting for an opportunity. The huge, bulky, conical heavy-duty anti-tank grenade looks extremely huge compared to his thin and short body, at least bigger than his head with a manure spoon on it.
Much bigger.
But even so, this panzer grenadier, who faced the fire of gunfire and a body of steel, still showed extraordinary composure, fully understood the situation at hand and tried to analyze the best moment to attack.
When the roaring IS6 heavy tank was about to run over the crater where he was, the short and thin armored grenadier not only did not duck immediately, but instead instantly moved his body like an artillery attack.
Completely prostrate, clinging to the ground motionless.
The is6 heavy tank driver, whose field of vision was not very good, was completely unaware that there was a person hiding in the slope of the blind spot of the crater in front of him. This crater was caused by long-range shelling by the Soviet field artillery group, and it was most likely that it was caused by 203
The cross-section of the crater that was blasted out by the mm heavy howitzer was beyond the power that ordinary howitzers could possess.
But it was precisely this huge crater that demonstrated how powerful the Soviet field artillery group was, and it became the accomplice of the German army in the burial of this is6 heavy tank.
The thin armored grenadier hiding on the slope of the crater found the right opportunity, and the moment the IS6 heavy tank roared over his head, he flew up, raised the anti-tank magnetic mine in his hand and struck it quickly.
The Red Army soldiers following the IS6 heavy tank could be said to have responded quickly after a brief moment of astonishment.
The long guns and short cannons in his hands were aimed at this "suddenly deceptive corpse" as quickly as possible, but in the end it was too late.
