Chapter 1127

"The 100th tank brigade was almost annihilated by the German army?" Tavartkilaze's words scared me out of my wits. You know, we are now deployed in the tank brigade that we owe, and the new type of tanks account for a large proportion. Unexpectedly, they were easily eliminated by the German army. In this way, the German armored forces are too strong.

"Yes, comrade commander." Tawalter killazer gave me a positive answer.

I wanted to find out who killed one of our tank brigades, so I asked tawalter killazer, "Comrade General, do you know the serial number of this German army?"

"Of course, we know that the German forces that attacked our division were Hitler and the imperial division." "After they failed to attack our position, they met the rear of our division's defensive area and attacked the 100th tank brigade," tavartkilaze told me

"What, comrade general, what did you just say?" Originally, I was still thinking about what kind of weapon the German army used to kill our tank brigade easily. Now I heard tavartkilaze say that the tank brigade was destroyed because of the German army's sneak attack“ You said that the collapse of the tank brigade was due to a sneak attack, not a face-to-face battle with the German army? "

"Yes." Tavartkilaze said with a trace of surprise: "I don't have it. Our tank brigade was hit hard in the face-to-face battle with the German army?"

At this moment, I was anxious to understand the details of the German defeat of the 100th tank brigade. Instead of tangled with him in the content of his statement, I said directly, "tell me, comrade general, what's the matter? Better give me some details. "

"Well, comrade commander." Tavartkilaze reported to me: "after the German army failed to attack our division's position, they bypassed the Highlands in two ways and made a deep detour towards us. I don't know what happened, but they got to the camp of the 100th tank brigade by mistake. As you know, when a tank brigade is camping, it usually separates people from vehicles, so it is caught off guard. Finally, some quick reaction tank soldiers, driving their own tanks, rushed out of the enemy's encirclement and retreated into our division's defense zone. "

"All right, Comrade General." Knowing the reasons for the annihilation of the 100th brigade, I was also more confident. At least it proved that the German tanks could not compete with our army in face-to-face combat. Before I put down the phone, I told tawalter killazer: "remember, although it's dark, the German attack has not stopped, but has become more rampant. You should tell your subordinates that you should never think that you will lose a lot if you take it lightly after repelling several German attacks. "

As soon as I put down the phone, Danilov and his family gathered around and asked with concern, "Comrade commander, what's the matter with the 100th tank brigade? Why was it so easily annihilated by the German army?"

After organizing some words in my mind, I said to the people present: "comrades, the 100th tank brigade was annihilated by the German army because they were too careless when they were camping. They still separated people from vehicles, regardless of the actual situation of the battlefield. As a result, when the German tank troops rushed in, they were caught off guard. "

After I finished, berey first said, "Comrade commander, according to my understanding, if the German 100th tank brigade did not separate people from vehicles when they attacked the camp, they would have the strength to successfully leave the battlefield under the attack of the enemy. I didn't get it wrong, did I? "

After listening to berey's words, I nodded and said, "yes, that's what happened. If we fight head-on, the tiger and leopard tanks that the German army is proud of are not our opponents at all. Therefore, in order to prevent similar tragedies from happening again, I order that all tank brigades shall not be separated from each other when they are camping, and must remain ready to fight at any time. "

"Comrade commander, I will report this matter to all the tank brigades at once, so that they can be more vigilant." As soon as I finished, bzikov took the initiative to say, "we need to let the Germans know that they can't beat us in the daytime, and they are not our opponents in the evening."

When belay waited for bzikov to make a phone call, he approached me and asked in a low voice: "Comrade commander, our new tanks are not easy to be completely destroyed by German tanks even at close range. Do you think some tanks will be captured by the German army

In fact, I have considered the question asked by bielei for a long time, but I'm afraid it will affect the morale of the army, so I didn't say it on purpose. At this moment, when I heard berey mention it in private, I said to him with a wry smile, "this possibility exists completely. But don't worry. Even if the German army seizes our new tanks, it will take some time for them to get familiar with the performance of the vehicles. In addition, the carrying capacity of the new tank is limited, and it will soon be exhausted in the battle. "

"That's good, that's good." Don't listen to me. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said happily, "if this is true, even if the German army seizes a few of our tanks, it will not have much impact on the whole war."

In the following time, several telephones in the headquarters kept ringing one after another. Because not only the first line of defense was attacked by the German army, but also some sections of the second line of defense were disturbed by the German army, because we had to issue a series of orders to solve the problems. At the busiest time, each of us held a telephone and gave orders to the troops below.

It's not easy to come to an end. I'm exhausted. Sitting at the table, I asked bzikov, who had just received a phone call, "chief of staff, do you have a report from Colonel govorunanko of the 375 division?"

Bezikov shook his head and replied, "no, comrade commander. So far, I have not received any information from Colonel govorunanko. "

"Chief of staff, would you like to call Colonel govoronenko and ask him what's going on there?" After giving orders to bezikov, I murmured in a low voice, "whether or not the Germans who are going to besiege our troops are defeated, you have to give me an explanation."

Danilov sat down next to me while bzikov was on the phone and said to me with a serious face, "Comrade commander, it looks terrible tonight. There are Germans attacking everywhere, and our troops deployed in the first line of defense are a little weak. Do you think the reserve of the group army will be put into action immediately

If Danilov had asked me a few hours ago to use the reserves, I would have rejected him without hesitation. But at the moment, I hesitated. After repeated deliberation, I said to Danilov, "Comrade deputy commander, tell me what you think."

Danilov stood up, pointed to the map on the table, and said to me, "I should transfer the 89th division of the guards to butovo, and assist the 67th division of the guards to capture butovo, so that the enemy can't use it as the starting point for their attack on oboyan. As for the 90th guard division, it should be transferred to Yakovlev to cooperate with the 10th tank army, which arrived there earlier, to repel the attacks of the 'Hitler division' and the 'Imperial division' and restore the positions occupied by the German army. "

I looked down at the map in front of me, and my mind was repeating the credibility of Danilov's proposal. After half a day's research, I found that it was not advisable to send the reserves to butovo or Yakovlev. Because in the process of advancing, the troops would inevitably come into contact with the German troops. The German troops are armored divisions, while we are infantry divisions. In case of encounter between the two, our reinforcements will be repulsed.

Having made up my mind, I raised my head to Danilov and said, "Comrade deputy commander, under the present circumstances, our reserve team is not available for the time being."

"What, the reserves can't be used?" When Danilov heard what I said, he was so anxious that he said, "Comrade commander, don't you see how dangerous the situation is now? The 51st, 52nd and 67th divisions of our guards lost a lot of soldiers in the daytime fighting. If we don't reinforce them, I think it's hard for them to stick to it. "

"Comrade deputy commander, don't worry." As soon as Danilov finished, I immediately expressed my opinion: "at present, the situation in the first line of defense is the worst, only the close guard 67th division, because they have no solid fortifications, and they are absolutely unstoppable in the face of the fierce German attack. But fortunately, behind them is major general krivoschein's mechanized Third Army. Our battle in the daytime has won them enough time to prepare. It's time for them to have a good fight with the German army.

As for the 51st and 52nd divisions of Jinwei, although the German army attacked their defensive areas very fiercely, because the defensive areas of the two divisions had solid and perfect defense systems, they could rely on tunnels for long-term defense. Although the German army occupied two important positions in the defense area of the 51st division, it was not an easy task to wipe out the division completely. "

"But, comrade commander..." Danilov was a little anxious to see that I denied his proposal again. Before he finished, I interrupted him directly and said slowly, "Comrade deputy commander, please don't forget that the battle has only been going on for one day. If we rush to put our reserves into the battle at this time, where can I deploy enough troops to break the deadlock once the battle is stuck?"

When I finished, I kept my eyes on Danilov to see how he would react. Danilov snorted angrily and said, "Comrade commander, although you have a good point, I reserve my opinion."

Kirilov, who was sitting opposite me, saw the whole process of our dispute, but he didn't speak. He just gave a faint smile and continued to look down at his war report.

After the call, bezikov hurried back to the table and said excitedly, "Comrade commander, I have just spoken with Col. govoruninenko. In the just concluded battle, we have successfully broken the German siege and rescued our besieged troops. At the same time, it also destroyed 29 German tanks, 3 self-propelled guns and 22 trucks, and killed and injured more than 500 German officers and soldiers. "

"Great, that's great." Danilov, who was still angry with me, became excited after hearing the news. He said happily, "this victory is really good news. I suggest that we report it to the whole army immediately, so as to boost the morale of our commanders and fighters."

"I agree!" As soon as Danilov's proposal came out, I was the first to agree. After all, there was too much bad news tonight, which had a certain impact on our morale and morale. We should make use of this news to stabilize the morale of the army.

"I agree!"“ I agree, too! " Kirilov and bezikov also expressed their opinions one after another after I finished, expressing their support for Danilov's proposal. Seeing that the opinions of the main leaders of the group army were unified, I called lophoff, the director of communications standing nearby, and said to him, "major, please send a telegram to all divisions to report to them the information that the 375TH Division has defeated the German army and achieved great results." At this time, akhromeyev also came. Standing at the table, he reported with a red face: "we have just received a telegram from the headquarters of the front army. In order to strengthen the anti tank forces in Yakovlev area, we have decided to put the 28th anti tank fighter brigade and the 538th and 1008th anti tank fighter artillery regiments under our command. At this moment, the troops are ready to set out, and they will be able to reach Yakovlev area about before dawn. " It is said that a new reserve team has arrived, and everyone's faces are full of joy. Kirilov even said, "that's great, Rita. You were just a few hours ago, struggling with the lack of long-range anti tank weapons. Now, without waiting for you to speak, the superior sent us so many anti tank artillery regiments. I believe that with their help, we are more confident of winning I rushed to sit in the corner, almost ignored by all of us, artillery commander povsky waved, let him come to his face, and said to him in the tone of discussion: "Comrade Colonel, now we have added so many artillery units, without a unified command, we can't do it. I'd like to send you to Yakovlev to command these artillery regiments with numerous numbers. Are you sure you can do it well? "“ No problem, comrade commander. " Povsky firmly replied, "I will go to Yakovlev immediately, organize all the artillery, and let the Germans taste the strength of our artillery."
