Chapter 807

In the morning, the front-line defensive positions of the Soviet Red Army were heavily attacked by German artillery, including 150 mm self propelled howitzers, 105 mm towed howitzers, and a large number of 75 mm field guns. All kinds of shells fell on some of the Soviet defensive positions like raindrops.

"Hello? Hello! I'm the commander of the 166 division at the front line. Yes, comrade rokosovsky, the German army is shelling my defense area. What I don't understand is why the other side only hit me here, but there is no movement in the 160 division not far away. " In the hidden bunker, the commander of the 166 division was calling rokosovsky. His position was almost turned over by the German army, but the friendly position on the side didn't even receive a shell. It was not balanced who he changed.

"I'm investigating this matter. I always think the German shelling last night was weird... I order you to resist the enemy's attack! You have fuel reserves and enough tanks. Support me! The replenishment train has started. It will arrive at the front line soon On the other side of the phone, rokosovsky ordered loudly.

It's OK not to mention this. When it comes to this, Mr. 166's heart is even more furious. The supplementary soldiers who were supposed to arrive at this time had food, but now they didn't even have any news. He called the garrison at the railway bridge and got the reply that the train had already passed. As for what happened, he didn't know.

Generally speaking, it's not strange that the front lines compete with each other for some supplementary soldiers or even supplies. However, generally speaking, a certain branch takes the lead, and at least other troops will follow suit. However, this battle was full of strangeness, which made the commander of the 166 division uncertain what was wrong.

"Woo Woo!... " Just when he was full of question marks and didn't know what kind of crisis was hidden behind all these strange problems, the shrill air defense alarm sounded like joining in the fun. He was stunned for a moment, then pushed the door out of his bunker, and saw the dense German planes flying over his defense line.

"That's not a bomber! German bombers have four engines. These planes should have three engines! " One of the following officers looked up at the sky and whispered, "do the Germans want paratroopers? In broad daylight? "

"Not just parachutists! There are other attempts! " The commander of the 166 division saw that in the low sky, one after another "planes" without wings, or with propellers on their heads, followed these transport planes and crossed the whole line of defense. While these planes were flying over the Soviet line, dozens of German stuka-2 attack planes launched repeated attacks on the Soviet ground anti-aircraft gun positions.

"What about the big caliber antiaircraft gun position? Why not fire! What about the antiaircraft gun position behind the 160th division? Why don't you fire? They are afraid to fight! This is disloyalty to the motherland The 166 division commander clenched his fist and cursed the friendly troops next door.

Just as he cursed, there was an earth shaking sound, and the earth trembled with the sound. The 166 division commander staggered under his feet and sat down at the bottom of the trench. He leaned against the wall in horror and let the small stones fall onto his helmet.

"What happened? What exploded? " The Soviet officer who fell down with the 166 division commander was more flustered. He looked at the huge black smoke rising from a forest outside the trench in horror and asked incoherently.

"Damn it! That's our magazine! Someone blew up our ammunition stock! " The commander of the 166 division was so angry that his voice trembled. If his troops didn't replenish their troops, they would be able to hold on for several hours. If his troops cut off their ammunition, everything would be finished.

Thinking of this, the commander of the 166 division quickly got up from the ground and went back to his bunker to get through the phone of the division's field hospital nearest to the ammunition depot. When a voice came from the phone, he immediately asked, "did the ammunition depot explode? What happened? Say it

"Report! Comrade teacher! We see 160 troops firing around the magazine. They are firing in the direction of the magazine The person in charge of the field hospital answered the phone, and what he said confused the division commander of the 166 division. He had to hang up the phone again, and then skillfully caught up again, to get through the division headquarters of the 160 division.

"Hello? 160 division? I... "Before he finished, the busy tone came from the other end of the phone. I don't know why the telephone line between the two troops was terminated without any sign.

What's the matter with division 160? What's wrong? Why did they attack the ammunition storage site? What does all this have to do with the German army? Why has the German army been shelling 166 divisions since just now, but not firing a single shot at 160 divisions nearby?

"Boom!" This explosion was different from other explosions. The 166 division commander, who was familiar with his own weapons, immediately recognized that this was not a German cannon, but a Soviet Army 122 mm howitzer. This shell, like a sharp knife, poked into the heart of the 166 division.

160 division defected? At this critical juncture, to the German side? Impossible? The teacher of the 160 division is an old comrade. How can such a funny thing happen at such a time. The confused 166 division commander no longer had much thought to hold the position, because he began to worry about his flank, which was once regarded as a solid one. Mixed with various caliber shells of the German army, there was no way to tell which direction the 122 mm caliber gun landed on his own position came from. However, the 166 division commander decided to contact the 160 division headquarters to confirm what went wrong“ You! Lead! Go to the division headquarters of division 160 in person! Tell us what happened to us and the people over there, and then ask why they attacked our ammunition reserve! " A trustworthy officer was called, and the commander of the 166 division frowned and ordered the task. He wanted to send a telegram for confirmation, but the radio station of division 160 didn't reply at all“ Yes! Sir, comrade Knowing the seriousness of the matter, the officer quickly took more than a dozen soldiers from the division's guard company and ran through the trench to the junction of the two divisions. They bent carefully forward, and soon came to the place next to the 160 division. But when he saw the situation clearly, the officer couldn't believe his eyes. Some Soviet soldiers with white cloth on their arms were firing fiercely, shouting "surrender" in proficient Russian while approaching the position of the 166 division. Without much time to think about it, the officer found the nearest telephone and reported everything he saw to his division commander: "the troops of the 160th division are attacking us! The 160th division is attacking us! " In fact, it was not necessary for him to report the funeral. The division commander of the 166 Division also knew what was going on there. Shortly after he sent out the liaison forces, there was a report of the fighting between the two armies. Now he had to believe in the fact that some front-line troops had defected. Chaos filled the entire Soviet front, and the commander of the 166 division finally gave a forced order: "hit the artillery! Attack the 160th division! Hit hard! Send a telegram to the rest of the troops! It's said that the army of the 160th Division has defected! They are German associates Then the division commander who gave the order to attack grabbed the phone again. When he wanted to contact General rokosovsky of the general headquarters, he found that the telephone line from the front line to the general headquarters had also been cut off“ son of a gun! blamed! What happened today? Why is everything so evil? " He threw the receiver on the table, and the 166 division teacher scolded. Just when he was swearing, a round of 122mm shells fell around his headquarters and raised a piece of black soil. He may not be sure just now. This time, he really determined the direction of these 122mm shells - the artillery position of the 160th Division Near Stalingrad, in rokosovsky's headquarters, he was listening to the reports of some officers in shock. The information made the Veteran General unbelievable. He heard that some of the generals in the front line had defected and had begun shelling each other; He heard that some anti-aircraft gun positions stopped fighting back, allowing German Paratroopers to land safely on a large scale; He heard that a special train supporting the front line had been bombed. It was the Soviet troops who attacked the train. There are rumors all over the place. One of the army headquarters on the front line has lost contact. Some of the troops have even begun to attack their own people. The whole front line is in a mess. There is no way to take effective measures to end this strange riot. What makes rokosovsky even more sad is that many places begin to hear that the Soviet general rokosovsky has been killed, and the German army is about to encircle Stalingrad. In some places, there are even the shadows of the German army. These German "forward forces" attack villages, kill people and set fire, and tell people everywhere that they are killing Stalingrad“ How did they do it? " If you can't figure it out, it's all German tricks. Rokosovsky can find a crooked neck tree to hang himself. He looked up at the map and said to himself.
