Paulus knew what difficulties General Osheim faced, but it did not matter.
In Paulus's view, all difficulties can be overcome. After last year's bone-chilling cold, nothing was more difficult for the German army.
The key to whether one can overcome difficulties lies in a person's subjective will, whether he wants to overcome difficulties or whether he wants to escape and is afraid of difficulties.
Paulus was worried that Major General Osheim might choose the latter, so he made this phone call. Paulus, who had the orders of the Führer, never wavered from the beginning to the end to give up the train station. The years have never changed.
.
Major General Osheim quickly put down the phone after briefly answering Paulus. His right hand could clearly be seen to be trembling, making him look very lost.
With the support of Paulus's assurance on the phone, could he hold on to the train station? Osheim didn't know clearly.
So is there anything Osheim knows clearly?
The answer is yes, that is, in the next few hours, there will be rivers of blood on our own positions! Regardless of whether the train station can be defended or not, this will be the inevitable result.
"Inform the frontline troops that the order remains unchanged and fight back all those Russians! We will continue to organize the attack. We still have enough strength to complete the mission."
The chief of staff, who no longer tried to give useless advice, faithfully conveyed the order to the front-line troops according to what Osheim said. Malashenko, who was unaware of this, soon experienced it firsthand, which made him feel strange and even surprised.
actual effect.
"Comrade Commander, those Germans suddenly stopped running! Are they waiting for us somewhere? Does this look like a trap?"
The German army, which had already begun to collapse, suddenly stopped its desperate steps and stayed in the foxholes and trenches of the broken offensive starting position and turned the muzzle of its guns. Malashenko, who had witnessed all this with his own eyes, couldn't help but be quite surprised.
Even if a defeated army stops and organizes defense on the spot, it will never be able to withstand the opponent behind it who has already defeated it once. This is common sense in war that follows the truth of cause and effect at all times. These Germans
What kind of medicine is sold in Lao Hulu?
With a big question mark in his heart, Malashenko shook the commander's periscope and looked at the surrounding fan-shaped area directly ahead. Ruins and various types of destroyed and abandoned German weapons were scattered everywhere. The entire battlefield area was empty.
Except for the partial ruins that block the area, there is a flat plain. It is impossible to fight an ambush in such a relatively open terrain.
"...Did Paulus start showing off his micro skills at the train station?"
The biggest difference between time-travelers and non-time-travelers is not the essential difference in cognitive attitude towards things, but the ability to make targeted judgments and blind guesses based on the things that will happen in the original history and the current situation.
Malashenko himself did not expect that he would guess the real answer right at once.
But other than that, there is only one possibility that can make the German army in front of him make such an abnormal move. Regardless of whether it was Paulus's personal order or not, Malashenko has to thank this master of remote micro-control and remote control of the battlefield.
.
"Very well, these Germans want to see their late Emperor! All the crews continue to attack, tear apart the defenses of these Germans, and press the accelerator to the bottom to crush their resistance!"
The lightly armed German army did not transport too many heavy weapons into the city. Except for the towed artillery and anti-tank guns that were difficult to maneuver and slow like an old ox pulling a broken car through the ruins, the attackers
Subjective judgment is also an important reason for such results.
The German army is here to be the conqueror, and the conqueror must take the initiative to launch a fierce and fierce attack. Since it is an attack, what is the use of those defensive weapons? It is better to rush a few more tanks into the city first.
!
As a result, the German infantry who were ordered to stop the retreat by their superiors as soon as they retreated to the offensive starting position sadly discovered that they had very few usable anti-tank weapons in their hands, especially the crucial anti-tank guns.
Almost nothing!
"Damn it! Crazy, General Osheim must be crazy! We only have these broken guns in our hands, how can we stop those Russian monster tanks? Can I scare them away by shouting "Long live the Führer?"
"Grenade, quickly find some cluster grenades! This can blow up the tracks of those Russian tanks!"
"Gasoline, I found a barrel of gasoline! The Russians used Molotov cocktails to attack our tanks, we can use them too!"
One part of the German army kept firing guns in an attempt to block the enemies who were about to hit their faces, while another part of the German army began to make simple anti-tank weapons on the spot using various materials they found improvised.
As soon as the M24 cluster grenades bundled into honeycomb briquettes and the gasoline bombs packed into French brandy bottles were made, the Russian steel monsters that could make the earth tremble slightly roared and pressed on their faces.
"Iushkin! Pay attention to the coaxial machine gun. I'll operate the commander's machine gun and shoot out those German anti-tank guns first!"
Different from the Laoganma machine gun carried by the American commander Xie Mantou, the commander's machine gun on the top of the turret of the Soviet tank gradually increased in number starting in 1943 according to the original historical trend, and it was not until 1944 that it was basically popularized by the entire army.
.
This thing was not designed to allow Soviet vehicle commanders to lean out and fight enemy infantry. The 12.7mm Deshka heavy machine gun was specifically used for aircraft anti-aircraft defense, at least that was the original design purpose.
If the Soviet army had not been numbed by more and more anti-tank air raids by the German army, it is still unclear whether the Soviet army would have installed this commander-operated Deshka on top of the tank.
Malashenko is a person who cherishes his own life. There are two completely different things between charging bravely and fearlessly on the battlefield and leaving his beautiful wife a widow.
Malashenko wants to do two things well, so he must cherish his own life. For example, let Karamov weld a 10 mm thick bulletproof steel plate to the 12.7 mm Deshka heavy machine gun used by the commander.
.
After opening the top cover of the turret, Malashenko could feel the strange sounds and vibrations from the bullets hitting his car. The smell of gunpowder and blood filling the air was undoubtedly the most real battlefield.
Several Red Army soldiers who were charging behind Malashenko's car saw a man suddenly emerge from the turret, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces for a moment, making them look quite surprised.
Malashenko, who had no time to chat, saw this scene and smiled at several Red Army soldiers whose eyes were wide open. Then he turned back and grabbed the machine gun on the roof of the car in front of him and put his hands on the trigger.
