Near the factory building of Stalingrad tank factory, which had been destroyed by artillery shells for a long time, a Soviet soldier leaned against the wall and was loading his rifle. Beside him, a group of Soviet tank production technicians, who were originally workers, were supplying artillery shells to a T-34 tank which had just been assembled by them.
The workshop director who originally organized production has now become a tank commander who may die at any time. The combat task of this T-34 tank is to help the Soviet soldiers here to hold the defensive positions near the factory.
Just now they beat back a German attack, and now the tired two sides are breaking their own wounds. It is estimated that it will only take a few hours to rest, and the German and Soviet troops will fight again here, and then use corpses to cover the short journey between the two positions.
The defensive positions of the two sides are very close, and the closest place is only a few tens of meters. If there is a slight disturbance, it may lead to a large-scale gunfight and then spread to the whole region. Then all the forces near the two sides will join in the fight, and the final loser will give up his territory under his feet to find the next suitable fighting address.
As early as 25 days ago, under the cover of several tanks, the German army occupied the city center of 1 ≤, Stalingrad. Then traxel focused his attack on the heavy industrial area in the north of the city. The German army soon began to attack these factories, while the Soviet army was ordered to defend their positions.
On April 29, the German and Soviet troops began to fight for a defensive position in the city, code named "mamayev". First, the German army captured the highland under the cover of the volley of the "building demolisher", and then the Soviet army put in heavy troops to recapture it on the same day.
Then on the next day, April 30, the German army recaptured the mamayev highland, but four hours later, it was recaptured by the Soviet Red Army. After getting the news, trohiller became angry and ordered to join the main force of the German army to launch a fierce attack. Later, the battle became more fierce, and the two armies occupied the highland alternately. Until the highland was turned into a mountain of corpses, the German army barely got a firm foothold on May 7.
The northern industrial area of Stalingrad was built in a hilly area, with buildings made of reinforced concrete or stone. This unique underground environment, together with the building materials and building habits (the walls of Soviet buildings are generally thick, which is the characteristic of Soviet buildings), makes the anti-destructive ability here quite strong.
So even with the deployment of Frederick rockets, 240 mm or even 270 mm caliber heavy artillery, plus the cover of dozens of assault guns and self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, the German advance was still difficult. The speed of German advance per hour is not measured in kilometers, but in meters.
A Ukrainian division commander of the N group army of the German army said plaintively in his combat report to trohiler: "the Soviets are crazy. They fight with us madly in order to fight for every house, workshop, water tower and railway subgrade. Sometimes the battle lasts for a whole day. We have run out of ammunition and there are Soviet bodies everywhere."
Another German officer complained to his armored colleagues about his tragic experience in the city of Stalingrad: "these Soviets even launched attacks to fight for a wall. Bullets rained around our bunkers... We kept fighting back with weapons, and finally drove them back to their starting position. Then we attack, they play us back like us
The commanders of both forces are under great pressure. The German commander, tricheler, developed the habit of anxiously walking around his office. He had to carry a rifle to fight in person several times, and was finally stopped by his subordinates; Of course, rokosovsky's life was more difficult. He couldn't rest in the sunless basement headquarters for a long time, and eventually suffered from intermittent syncope due to malnutrition and mental fatigue.
At least thousands of people died near the central railway station in 20 repeated contests for ownership. So a few days ago, the platform there had been dyed red by blood, and the railway sleepers were permeated with human blood. Finally, one by one, it turned dark red, and looked very frightening.
In a huge empty grain warehouse near a railway station, the soldiers of the two armies fought a very strange battle. When the two armies moved forward, they separated a wall, and then almost heard each other's footsteps at the same time. So the soldiers began to fire fiercely across the wall, trying to kill each other. As a result, the two armies belonging to the Soviet Union and Germany suffered heavy casualties, At the same time, the order to retreat was given.
In another part of the city, by Yankee? A 70 member Soviet detachment under the command of Colonel zaikov occupied an apartment building in the center of the city and resisted tenaciously. The soldiers planted a large number of mines near the building and installed machine guns in the windows. They successfully beat back the German army's three attacks - the fourth time, the German army transferred two "building demolition devices". After a round of volley, as a brave Soviet Colonel, there were only 30 soldiers left to destroy with this indomitable building. The ruins of this building were called Yangji building by the Soviet Garrison to commemorate the warriors who died here.
Even though the German army sent out do-217 to cover the city for several times, the Soviet defense forces in the city still used the ruins to fight despite the heavy bombardment of the city by German artillery. As more than 70% of the buildings in the city were destroyed, and most of the streets and squares were covered with rubble piles and abandoned buildings up to several meters high, Soviet snipers successfully used the ruins as shelters and made amazing achievements. The most successful sniper, Jikan? Lebur killed 124 Ukrainian and German soldiers in the ruins. Until he was surrounded and killed by German snipers, he was a nightmare for many German front-line soldiers. Another Soviet sniper set the second record of killing 109 people. What's more incredible is that he died in the front line, not in the war. Just as these Soviet soldiers were ready to fight again, Stalin's speech broadcast in Moscow echoed over the Soviet controlled area in Stalingrad again through the loudspeaker: "all comrades fighting hard in Stalingrad! Don't be afraid of difficulties and keep fighting! Never let this great city fall into the hands of the German invaders! Every house... Hiss... As long as there are Soviet soldiers, even if there is only one person... Hiss... Will become a fortress that the enemy can't break. " The nearby Markham machine gun has roared. At this time, no one will pay attention to the meaning of the sound in the distant horn. The German attack has begun, and another battle that needs to kill many people has begun. This is a bloody hell, where God will not redeem“ ahead! A German assault gun! Armor piercing ammunition loading Half of this Soviet T-34 tank, which was buried under the ruins with only one turret exposed, slowly adjusted the position of the turret and aimed its 76mm caliber gun at its target“ Boom The tank made a fatal shot, but the shell rubbed the side of the German tank and hit a low wall behind the leopard assault gun. For a moment, the debris was smashed everywhere by the huge force, and the dust covered the distant vision. It wasn't long after this hapless T-34 tank had just been assembled, and apart from painting, the worst thing about this tank is that it hasn't installed sight glasses that are out of stock. Therefore, the aim of this Soviet tank can only depend on feeling, and whether it can hit the other side can only depend on belief. Obviously, the tank's faith was not strong enough, so the shell didn't hit the target it was supposed to hit - the German assault gun opposite. So the German assault gun slammed to a halt and began to aim its gun at the T-34 tank not far away“ Come on! Come on, come on In a hurry, these Soviet workers, who had never experienced the test of war, were obviously not the opponents of the German assault artillery group. Their second shell took so long to load that it gave the Germans a chance to fire first“ Boom The German team soon fired their first shell. The leopard assault gun's long barrel 75mm cannon easily penetrated the castrated T-34 tank. The bullets ran around inside the tank, killing all the Soviets inside. Because there was not much fuel, the T-34 tank didn't explode in the end, but just stopped all movements as if it had lost its soul. Under the cover of the leopard assault gun, the German grenadiers began to attack the Soviet positions fiercely. The Soviet army, who was just loading their rifles, was soon hit by the German machine gun and lay beside the tank that had been killed. A German Grenadier leaned against the dusty rubble. After taking a deep breath, he threw the grenade in his hand into the trench of the Soviet garrison. With a loud bang, the Soviet resistance became weaker, and some even began to commit suicide in despair. This is the first time since the German army besieged Stalingrad. When everyone was confused, a German platoon leader leaned against the shelter, passed through the crack of the half collapsed wall of the factory building, and saw a wide river in the distance. He covered the hole in his heart, spat blood, laughed and cried out his last words: "Volga River!"------------- I'm very sorry for the change yesterday. In recent days, Longling will find time to make it up for you and say sorry again!
