"Give them a chance. I am now ordering the troops to cease fire and keep in contact at any time. The call is over."
Malashenko did not give any other orders to the political commissar comrades. To be precise, it was because Malashenko had no choice but to think about it in detail. He could only leave the problem to the people who had always believed in each other.
Comrade political commissar solves the problem, Malashenko believes that comrade political commissar can handle everything, just like usual.
After the brief communication with the political commissar ended, Malashenko raised his hand and tuned the command-type inter-car radio station in the commander's position to another section, and then pressed the call button again and gave the order.
.
"Attention all units, stop attacking immediately! I repeat, cease fire, stop attacking immediately! Disengage with the enemy and rally to me, over."
This attack-versus-attack encounter in the wilderness and snowfields did not have any existing positions or fortifications and bunkers to speak of, so both the Red Army and the German army had similar profiles of the enemy and us.
In a wild encounter, it is actually very simple for the dominant side to break away from contact. The disadvantaged side is beaten and embarrassed, and it is difficult to protect itself. How can it be embarrassing to attack others when it can't even block other people's attacks? This is like
A skinny little gangster who had just been beaten up by a fat man shouted that he was going to beat up the strong man who had just left after getting bored of beating him. It was pure fucking bullshit.
This little bastard had something wrong with his head, and the German army who could make some rational demands obviously hadn't reached the point where his IQ had dropped. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so smart as to send out explicit messages to test the situation.
Malashenko commanded the troops to immediately cease fire, disengage with the German troops and temporarily retreat.
Being able to quickly transmit immediate combat orders to the infantry squad level and the leader division combat troops of all armored combat vehicles, the speed of this orderly retreat is really incredible. It is really the kind of "invasion is like fire, and the rear is like fire."
"Withdraw like the wind" dual high-speed efficiency.
Of course, this also made some people who used binoculars to see the orderly and efficient scene when the leading division's combat troops retreated after hearing the news, took it to heart even more, and from this they came to the conclusion
Words that reinforce the previous judgment.
"This group of Russians is no longer an opponent that we can defeat now. There is something wrong with them in everything, not only their fancy and powerful equipment that we have never seen before, but even their retreat. Have you ever seen such a uniform, even
Did even the infantry receive the message almost at the same time and begin to retreat in an orderly manner? I have never seen it, and I have never seen it with the Russians."
"This gives me an illusion, William, as if... as if all the Russians have radios on their bodies and can receive tactical orders instantly. I know this is impossible, but look at those infantry
The reaction speed, they didn't even need the officers to shout orders, they just retreated without saying a word and followed the reversing tanks to cover alternately. This was even more terrifying than their unstoppable and powerful attack."
In history, there are many elite troops who can win battles and fight tough battles, but there are really only a few troops who can retreat well, just like some wild animals on the verge of extinction.
Lieutenant General Dritz used his rifle as a crutch and refused to let others support him. He insisted on standing and walking by himself. In one hand, he was still holding the telescope that had just been put down from the raised state. The words he blurted out were full of thoughts about what he had just seen.
The sight was unbelievable and unbelievable, and even his eyes showed a slight strangeness that was not easy to detect.
I did indeed see the subtle strangeness in the eyes of my old partner. The man next to him, whom Lieutenant General Dritz called William, and who saw all this, was the chief of staff of his partner, this tall and lanky man.
The orthodox Prussian soldier replied to Deritz almost without thinking.
"No matter what, at least our method worked. The Russians ceased fire. Even if you knew it might be a trick to delay time, you still gave this opportunity. What are you going to do?"
It is true that he sent the clear telegram as a test to end the battle, but objectively speaking, since it has been transformed into a practical opportunity, it may not be possible to use it for other things.
A practical opportunity is right in front of you. The key lies in how to grasp it and how to use it.
Fortunately, Dritz, who knew he was not waiting for me, quickly gave the answer.
"Then let us..."
"The Fascist bandits across the way listen!"
Before Dritz finished speaking, an unexpected and sudden loud roar forcibly interrupted his words, knocking back the words he had not finished speaking in his mouth. It was obviously an electric speaker amplifier.
The Russian-style German after the sound amplification continues.
"You are fighting against the most powerful and invincible Red Army's most elite field group, the Stalin Guards Tank Division! You are now surrounded by Red Army troops from the front, rear and left! Put down your weapons and stop making unnecessary resistance. The Red Army will ensure that
Your lives are safe!”
"Take five minutes to think about it. If you don't want to face Stalin's tanks again, seize this last moment! This is your last chance to save your life and see your loved ones alive. Stop giving your allegiance to the evil bandit leaders in Berlin! Be good.
Think carefully!"
.......
In the air of war smoke blown by the cold wind, there is still the lingering sound after the electronic loudspeaker roared. It echoes in the minds of all the German soldiers who are still alive on the battlefield, like a train that roars endlessly and is heart-wrenching.
Thought.
"Oh my God, Hans! The Russians...the Russians opposite are the Stalin divisions, did you hear that!? They are the Iron Butcher's troops!"
"Damn it! I told you that we can't win at all. There is no chance of winning against Stalin's murderous devil! Who knows how many German soldiers he killed."
"I don't want to die, I dare not surrender! Then Malashenko will definitely kill us. If we enter the prison camp, we will be like pigs entering a slaughterhouse!"
Several German soldiers who had just been hanging on by a thread were either annoyed, panicked, cursed, or fearful, and they hid behind an abandoned truck with a punctured tire. In the end, the squad leader who was the calmest said:
Summarize the discourse.
"We can't decide, just wait, someone will make a decision, and soon..."
Just as this squad leader who can not only think calmly but also seize this precious five-minute opportunity to quickly light up a cigarette and perhaps take two last puffs of pleasure before dying says, there are many people on our side who can make the final decision.
The decision was made quickly.
"What kind of person do you think that Malashenko will be? William, after all, we will see him soon."
"I don't know, but I don't think he is really the number one murderer under Stalin. You should have heard of some of his deeds in Warsaw. The above propaganda may have portrayed him as too demonic. Some people think
Want this effect."
After sorting out the documents in his hands and stuffing them back into the briefcase he had prepared in advance, Deritz just sighed, then solemnly handed them over to the chief of staff in front of him, and finally spoke.
"Be careful along the way and have a good talk with the Russians. I'll wait for you to come back."
