"You... I should have submitted my application." Said Ryan, looking at Marcus.
"Of course, I know you don't want to fight in the front line any more." Marcus nodded, and then continued: "so they asked us to persuade you that after you return to the rear, you will still contribute as a military to the special forces training of the Third Reich. That's why we can get here from the field hospital dozens of kilometers away, and I'll take your place as commander of the new 502 armored battalion. "
Ryan didn't agree, but he didn't refuse. After a while, he asked what he cared about, instead of giving a yes or no answer: "will Alice still be in your camp? Do me a favor and tell her not to go to the front again, will you? "
Alice's smile grew stronger when she heard that Ryan mentioned herself again, and that she cared about herself. She didn't care about the war or the sufferings she experienced. She was just a girl in love, that's all. It's the greatest comfort for a girl to hear her sweetheart's care and concern.
Marcus chuckled: "in fact, the story about you two in the army group has been written and published for a long time. It is said that you have been promoted to lieutenant colonel because of your accumulated achievements. Alice will go back to Berlin with you as your personal assistant and secretary. As for Andre... He's really retired and I can't help him. G. the Logistics Department of the group army has given him a lot of subsidies. Maybe he is already on the train back to his hometown. "
As far as the Soviet Union and Moscow are concerned, everything seems to be over. Everyone knows that Zhukov's troops did not repel the enemy's attack. They fell into the enemy's entanglement and had no ability to return to Moscow to defend their capital. Although the defense line around Moscow has been operating for a long time, it can be regarded as solid, However, although tens of thousands of heroic, but a small number of main forces and 100000 temporary patchwork of cannon fodder simply can not stop the German advance. What's more terrible is that these troops have no external support and lack of follow-up, so all of them have indescribable frustration and confusion on their faces.
The breeze was blowing through the open windows in the Kremlin corridor, and the scattered papers were floating in the wind and no one picked them up. There was a smell of burning paper and burning film everywhere in the empty house. All kinds of documents of this country, intelligence and information that had been collected by great efforts, backup of information of various regions, even some palace records of Czarist Russia and royal property list were required to be put into the brazier to burn.
At the same time, all the living systems, water plants and power plants in Moscow were required to be destroyed. No one would be surprised that the water and power supply was stopped at any time. Sewers and subways have been transformed into underground bunkers, some solid underground air defense facilities have been strengthened and expanded, and countless trenches have been dug in every street, with barbed wire and sentries everywhere. All civilians were required to sew more than 10 cloth bags every day to hold sand and debris as sandbags for fortifications.
The food and medicine seized in the city were collected by the army. The old people under the age of 50 were asked to join the army. All the doctors were collected. Even the clergy in the church were unified into the army to pray for the wounded and the dead. Women and children were registered as "reserves" in the eyes of Stalin and his generals.
Many of Moscow's urban departments are empty, and marginal institutions, such as marriage registration and community services, shut down a month ago. Trucks carrying food and vegetables are often looted, and some violent incidents and robberies are not dealt with by anyone - the police are all called up as soldiers, and the law and order are maintained by some elderly people, who are really lack of deterrence against lawlessness.
It seems that only the army is still in normal operation in the whole city. Under Stalin's crazy command, Moscow has become a huge fortress in chaos. In addition to self destruction, it has lost other functions.
We all know that Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union, is on fire because even if the Soviet Union wins the war by chance, the collapse of bureaucracy and file management will make the Soviet Union lose its ability to control the local area. In other words, no matter what, the Soviet Union is on the road of self destruction.
Compared with the German army, which was defeated but full of stamina, the Soviet Union, which had lost its mobilization advantage, was under more pressure now. The start of the war on the two lines made it impossible for the whole Soviet Union's troops to look back on each other. The national mobilization capacity has been lost by 7788. The terrible loss of the front line can no longer be offset by the overwhelming national strength.
Leningrad garrison was forced to retreat, Finland and Germany's E group army occupied this "city named after the former leader". The German army pushed down the statue of Lenin in the city, and the eye-catching German flag was hung everywhere. The news reporters wrote about the victory, hoping to offset the embarrassment of bergerord being recaptured by the Soviet Union.
It seems that the Soviet Union was once again beaten in the face, and the field which was finally recovered from the state of Belgorod was completely lost in the battle of Leningrad. As for why Leningrad, who is ready to resist to death, will finally end up without war, we have to start with another battle plan.
