The guard platoon leader, who looked horrified, had barely finished speaking when the first Stuka dive bomber dived straight down from the sky and had already dropped the seeds of death.
Two 250-kilogram aerial bombs fell straight down with the screams of the wind and the hellish roar of the Stuka itself. The soldiers on the ground who were originally fighting to the death stopped what they were doing and looked at the sky above their heads.
The two aerial bombs used to spread the plague-like flames of death stood still in the sky as if time had stopped.
"Damn Kraut..."
boom--
The death flames that instantly rose from the frozen land shook everything around it with overwhelming and absolutely destructive power. The total 250 kilograms of explosives accounted for half of the total tonnage of the aerial bomb, which was far beyond the power of ordinary heavy artillery shells.
Can be compared.
The Soviet infantry array, which was still launching a dense charge towards the depths of the German positions, was caught off guard. In an instant, two mushroom clouds merged into one and shot up to a height of twenty meters in the sky. The Soviet infantry had no time to make evasive maneuvers.
Like a piece of cheesecake that had been chewed by a mouse, a chunk of it was instantly missing.
The huge explosion of the aerial bomb impacted almost all the sensory nerves in his mind and his fragile eardrums and body. Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, who mustered up his will and struggled to get up from the snow, almost felt that his body no longer belonged to him. Although.
The red faith that filled his heart did not recognize the existence of gods and ghosts, but Lieutenant Colonel Yakov's true feelings at this moment could hardly find a more suitable description except that his soul seemed to be stripped out of his body.
"What the hell...how did the German plane come so fast!? Where is our aviation force!?"
After struggling to get up from the snow in a half-kneeling position with a Bobosha submachine gun in hand, Lieutenant Colonel Yakov discovered that the guard platoon leader responsible for protecting his personal safety had fulfilled his duty with his life.
A solemn promise, the body that was killed by flying shrapnel in the first moment of the explosion was lying quietly in the snow without any movement or sound, and the scarlet blood flowing out of Chun Chun from his back in the supine position had melted his body.
The snow that fell turned a large area red.
"Damn Krauts, damn planes!"
Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, who understood the meaning of the loss of life from his lifeless eyes that were looking directly into the sky, did not pick up the body and cry bitterly for any useless purpose, then gritted his teeth and straightened up.
Taking a step forward, he stretched out his right hand, which was completely numb and almost unconscious due to the shock wave of the aerial bomb explosion, and brushed his face that was still warm, and put the dull eyes that could not be closed until death to rest.
"You take the first step, Belinsky, and I will send more Germans to bury you, absolutely!"
Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, who had no time to feel sad anymore, turned around immediately after completing this action. More German Stuka dive bombers in the sky were diving straight down along the same attack path of the pilot aircraft just now, one after another.
The continuous sharp whistling sound was as shocking as a living ghost crawling up from hell into the world.
"Everyone, please find cover and hide. Don't get together. Those German planes are coming again!"
I don’t know much about aircraft, a war machine that spreads death from the sky to the ground. I vaguely remember that the Soviet aviation unit that bombed the Japanese army indiscriminately during the Battle of Nomonhan seemed to have such impressive power.
Knowing that it would be very foolish to confront these steel war eagles roaring in the sky with his flesh and blood, Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, who raised his arms and roared loudly at the surrounding soldiers, immediately gave the order to hide and disperse on the spot.
Order.
The Soviet infantry who play the role of attackers are all lightly armed. The most powerful accompanying firepower they currently possess is only the DP28 light machine gun. The embarrassing situation of having almost no anti-aircraft firepower is completely useless against the indiscriminate bombing.
German fighter planes intercepted, and Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, who was reckless and courageous but had an online IQ, knew very clearly that the only feasible solution was to temporarily avoid the enemy.
As the covert evacuation order was issued loudly from Lieutenant Colonel Yakov, the Soviet infantrymen, whose ears were filled with the roar of German fighter planes, felt as if they were being amnesty. Although they were not in a hurry and did not choose a route, they still hid in a chaotic manner towards any possibility around them.
The bunkers that had been raised were scattered in all directions, but none of this escaped the eyes of the German pilots who were looking down at the earth below from God's perspective.
"Keep running away, Ivans, you only deserve to be crushed to death like ants."
The German pilots, who stood on the opposite side of ideology, plundered lives and at the same time used unabashed words of contempt for the Soviet soldiers on the ground. After pressing the bomb release button in their hands, the bomb-fixing hook instantly loosened its original position.
The locked-up aerial bombs and the black 250-kilogram-class aerial bombs immediately fell into the ranks of Soviet troops on the ground in a dense manner like rain of bullets.
One, two, three, four...
The Stukas, which repeatedly dived and dropped bombs along the existing attack channel, had no intention of stopping. The Soviet infantry, which had been about to completely overwhelm the German defensive positions, was hit by the precise strikes of intensive aerial bombs.
He turned into a headless fly and ran away like crazy.
Faced with these death-like beings in the air who were unable to resist with the light weapons in their hands, even the Soviet army with the blessing of faith and the high morale of being about to win a complete victory could not resist it at all.
This has nothing to do with the bravery and morale of a unit, it is simply the instinctive fear that humans have when facing something that they are unable to resist.
The Yakov infantry offensive that was about to completely overwhelm the German position here was completely resolved by the German air support that just arrived. On the other side, the troops were originally commanding the troops to prepare for a final charge towards the German armored cluster.
Malashenko's situation is also not much better.
Different from the previous Heinkel 111 bombers encountered in Leningrad that used high-altitude horizontal bombing and lacked accuracy, the Heinkel 111 bomber dived straight from high altitude until an altitude of 300 to 500 meters before releasing the pylon hook for bombing attack.
The Stuka's attack accuracy is completely different from that of the Heinkel 111.
Before the emergence of guided ground attack weapons, dive bombing was one of the most precise attack methods in the world's air force. After the launch of Operation Barbarossa, the Stukas, who had been the mainstay in blocking the Soviet army's steel torrent, had no idea how to do so.
Better to stop these red steel behemoths is already a skill with light vehicles.
