Seeing the group of soldiers running closer and closer, a soldier standing next to the officer suddenly realized that something was wrong. The soldiers who ran over were actually holding Soviet-style equipment. Although they were fighting with the pursuing soldiers behind them,
It was very lively, and people on both sides continued to fall, but no blood was seen.
The soldier carefully observed the Romanian soldiers who fell on the ground and found that some people actually waved to the Guards soldiers as they ran past them. Seeing this scene, the soldier did not understand why this group of so-called Romanian soldiers
The officers and soldiers were all Russians in disguise. He quickly shouted: "They are Russians!"
After shouting, he picked up the rifle in his hand and pulled the trigger at the Guards soldiers disguised as Romanian officers and soldiers. With a "pop" gunshot, a Guards soldier rushing to the front immediately
He staggered, then dropped the weapon in his hand, covered his chest with his hands and fell forward.
If the soldier had a submachine gun in his hand, it might cause great harm to the Guards commanders who were more than twenty meters away. Unfortunately, he was holding a rifle. When he pulled the bolt and loaded another bullet,
Before he had time to pull the trigger, the Guards soldier who found himself exposed had already picked up the Popov submachine gun in his hand, aimed at him and pulled the trigger crazily. In just ten seconds, the opponent fired in one breath
The bullets in the drum were empty, and the soldier and the officer beside him were shot by more than a dozen bullets, and fell down in the trench screaming.
All this happened so suddenly. Before the other Romanian soldiers could figure out what was going on, the Guards soldiers who rushed to the position had already pulled the string of the grenade and threw it towards the trench. After a series of explosions,
In the rising smoke, the screams of Romanian soldiers could be heard one after another.
Before the smoke cleared, the Guards soldiers had jumped into the trenches and used their weapons to shoot at the soldiers who were stunned by the bombing. When the submachine gunners saw the enemies lying on the ground, as long as they were still breathing, they would
He just fired a few more shots; the soldier holding the rifle was more straightforward and went straight up to stab him with a bayonet.
The enemy, who was desperately blocking the Soviet attack from the front, suddenly found that there was chaos in the position on his flank. The commander quickly sent people to support him. Unexpectedly, the Romanian soldiers running along the trench were attacked head-on by the commanders and soldiers of the Guards Division.
Under the attack of machine guns, submachine guns, rifles and grenades, except for a few who were lucky enough to escape, the rest were lying in the trenches in a mess.
The Soviet troops that originally attacked from the front were being suppressed by the firepower from the Romanian position. At this moment, seeing that the enemy's firepower suddenly weakened, and there seemed to be chaos on the position, a new charge was launched again. This time due to the enemy's
The firepower weakened, and the commanders and soldiers successfully advanced to the front of the enemy's position.
The soldiers of the Guards who were fighting with the enemy in the trench saw the friendly troops approaching the position and were ready to rush over to meet them. Unexpectedly, the few soldiers at the front were stopped by their own company commander: "Stop, stop.
What are you going to do?"
Facing the company commander's question, several soldiers couldn't help but froze, and answered honestly: "Comrade company commander, friendly troops are rushing up, let's go support them!"
"Look down and see for yourselves, what kind of clothes are you wearing?" Due to the continuous sound of gunfire and explosions around them, the company commander had to shout at them at the top of his lungs: "You are wearing Romanian military uniforms and rushing over, so you are not afraid of being attacked by friendly forces.
Are your comrades beaten as enemies?"
The company commander's words reminded several soldiers that the friendly forces attacking from the front did not know that among the Romanian troops on the position, there were their own people wearing enemy uniforms. But even if they knew, what was the use? They couldn't fire every time before firing.
, they all ask each other first: Are you two of us?
The soldiers hurriedly took off their Romanian military uniforms, revealing the pullover military uniforms underneath. Then, holding their weapons, they rushed towards the most intense battle.
With the cooperation of the Guards, the troops attacking from the front, after a fierce battle, finally successfully broke into the enemy's position and began to eliminate the remnants of the enemy who were still stubbornly resisting.
Gorishny saw his troops rushing into the enemy's position through the telescope, and couldn't help shouting excitedly: "Colonel Gurdiev, did you see it? Our troops rushed into the enemy's position and were fighting with them.
The enemy launched a battle for position."
"I saw it, I saw it." Compared with Gorishny's ecstasy, Gurdiev behaved quite calmly: "If it weren't for the assistance of Colonel Sokov's troops, we might not be able to seize the enemy's position.
It's not that easy."
"What, Colonel Sokov sent troops to assist us in our attack?" Gorishny's attention had been focused on his own offensive troops, and he did not even notice that he was attacked by a troop on the right wing of the enemy's position.
It was this team of several hundred people that changed the outcome of the battle. He was particularly surprised and asked: "Colonel Gurdiev, why didn't I see it? Are you mistaken?"
"It's unmistakable." Gurdiev said firmly: "I saw it with my own eyes."
Seeing that Gurdiev was so sure, Gorishny couldn't help but be dubious: "But I didn't see the enemy's right wing being attacked by artillery fire just now."
"There is no artillery cover for the friendly forces' attack." Based on what he just saw, Gurdiev deduced Sokov's attack routine: "He sent a small force, disguised as the Romanian army, and then approached
When the enemy's position was reached, they launched an attack by surprise, thereby easily capturing the enemy's position."
"Disguised as a Romanian army?" Gorishny had never thought of using this tactic to attack the enemy's position. He asked in a skeptical tone: "When the enemy sees an army suddenly appear on the flank, even if they are dressed in
Wearing the same uniform as myself, won’t that raise suspicion?”
"Making the enemy unable to distinguish between true and false is exactly what Colonel Sokov is good at." Gurdiev said in an admiring tone: "I saw the disguised Romanian army leaving the position they occupied.
Afterwards, there was a troop of our army following closely behind. The two troops were chasing and escaping, and they were still exchanging fire. People on both sides fell down. At the time, I thought it was accidental injury, but later I observed carefully
After a while, I found that when the commanders and soldiers fired, their muzzles were pointed toward the sky."
When Gurdiev and Gorishny were studying Sokov's tactics, Sokov also saw friendly forces occupying the enemy's position on the high ground. He quickly picked up the microphone and told Papuchenko: "Lieutenant Colonel
Comrade, our friendly forces have captured the enemy's position on the right wing, and you can launch an attack on the enemy's second line of defense."
"Comrade Division Commander," Papuchenko saw many T-34 tanks parked on the right flank and asked Sokov tactfully: "Can we allow the tank troops on the right flank to cover our attack?"
"I will contact Colonel Bely immediately," Sokov considered that Bely's tank troops were originally under his command. There should be no problem in moving them to the left wing to assist the 122nd Regiment in the attack, so he said readily
Said: "As soon as the tanks arrive, you will immediately launch an attack."
Knowing that Sokov planned to let tanks help him, Papuchenko couldn't help but be overjoyed: "I understand!"
Sokov thought that mobilizing tank troops was a sure thing, so as soon as he contacted Colonel Bely on the battlefield, he said bluntly: "Colonel Bely, we are about to launch an attack on the enemy's second line of defense. I hope you can
Move the tank troops over and provide us with artillery cover."
Unexpectedly, after Bely waited for Sokov to finish speaking, he sighed and said: "I'm sorry, Misha, my tank troops may not be able to provide you with any help in a short period of time."
"Why?" Bely's words shocked Sokov, and he quickly asked: "What happened? Is it lack of fuel or ammunition?"
"With the fuel in the tank, there will be no problem even if we travel another fifty kilometers." Bely said with a grimace: "Half of the shells in the new tanks provided to us by Director Peter are armor-piercing projectiles. If we engage in a decisive tank battle with the enemy,
, these armor-piercing bullets can still be used, but if they are used to attack enemy positions, their usefulness is very limited. I can't use armor-piercing bullets to attack enemy civil fire points, right?"
"What should we do?" Sokov couldn't help but become anxious when he heard that tanks could not participate in the battle: "If my troops attack without artillery support, they will inevitably suffer huge casualties."
"Misha, you can only wait a little longer." Bely said to Sokov: "I have just contacted the factory director Peter through Colonel Gurdiev. He said that it will take two hours at the fastest.
Send us the high-explosive grenades we need. If you want to receive tank fire support during the attack, you can only wait two hours."
Sokov did not want his troops to make unnecessary sacrifices during the attack. He wanted to keep these precious troops for use in the next more than a month. So when he heard Bely say this, he immediately replied without thinking:
"Okay, Colonel Bely, then I will wait two hours before launching an attack on the enemy's second line of defense."
Sokov wanted to wait two hours for Belly's tank troops to provide him with artillery support before launching an attack on the enemy's position. Unexpectedly, just half an hour later, the phone in the observation post rang.
. He picked up the microphone and put it to his ear, and heard Krylov's voice coming from inside: "Colonel Sokov, your right-wing troops have taken over the enemy's position, why haven't you attacked the enemy's second line yet?"
Launch an attack from the Taoist position?"
"Comrade Chief of Staff," after hearing Krylov's question, Sokov quickly replied: "The enemies on the second line of defense have strengthened their defenses. If we launch an attack rashly without the support of artillery fire and tanks, then
The troops will inevitably pay a huge price. Therefore, I plan to let Colonel Bely's tank unit assist us in launching the attack."
"When can the tank troops enter the attack starting position?" Krylov asked briefly.
"Comrade Chief of Staff," Sokov replied hesitantly: "I just asked Colonel Bely that the high-explosive grenades carried by the tanks have been used up, and only armor-piercing shells are left. As you know, armor-piercing shells are very effective against enemy fortifications.
It will not do much damage to the dense combat formation, so they have to wait for the new high-explosive grenades to arrive, which will take about two hours..."
"Colonel Sokov." Krylov said impatiently before Sokov finished speaking: "Do you know that the more you hesitate, the more prepared the enemy will be on the position. If you give
It gives the enemy two hours of preparation time. After the high-explosive grenades are delivered, even with the cover of tanks, your casualties will definitely be huge."
Hearing what Krylov said, Sokov immediately realized that the opponent might order him to launch an attack immediately, so he asked tentatively: "Comrade Chief of Staff, when do you think we should launch an attack?"
"Immediately, immediately!" Krylov said in an unquestionable tone: "You must seize the enemy's second line of defense in the shortest possible time, further seize the concession points, and cut off the German railway transportation. As long as
If there is a problem with their logistical supplies, the next situation will develop in a direction that is beneficial to our army."
Now that Krylov has spoken to this extent, Sokov can only bite the bullet and agree: "Okay, Comrade Chief of Staff, I will have the troops attack immediately."
After putting down the phone, Sokov looked at Ivanov standing beside him and said apologetically: "Comrade Deputy Division Commander, you also heard the call from the Chief of Staff. He said that even without the cover of tanks, we must
Immediately launch an attack on the enemy's position. You must know that although I am commanding this army now, you personally organized it after all. I want to hear your opinion on whether to launch an attack at this time!"
Ivanov did not expect that Sokov would ask for his opinion on this matter. He thought for a long time before replying: "Comrade division commander, our division has fought many tough battles. Every time, in order to win, the troops have sacrificed their best."
I suffered huge casualties. This is the first time I have seen such a battle to seize the enemy's position at a very small cost. To be honest, I also want to continue to fight according to this tactic, so as to save the lives of more soldiers.
But judging from the current situation, this is obviously unrealistic. If it is delayed any longer, it may delay the war. I think it is better to follow the orders of superiors and launch an attack on the enemy's positions immediately. In order to defend our great motherland, even if we pay
It's a huge sacrifice, and I believe our commanders and fighters will understand it."
Sokov originally wanted to wait for Ivanov to raise objections to the attack, then he could argue with Krylov, and wait until Bely's tank troops were re-equipped with high-explosive grenades before attacking the enemy's second line.
The position launched an attack. But after listening to Ivanov's words, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, then picked up the phone and said to Papuchenko on the other end of the phone: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, immediately launch an attack on the position."
