Chapter 91 911 Busy Headquarters
Guderian knew that it was so hasty to complete the transfer of troops at this level in South zhukov, and it was impossible to hide how many people could hide. How many South troops were there? What did the Soviet Union really want to do this time?
The Soviet Union took the simplest means of self-protection all the way south, that is, staying in the daytime and going out at night. Although this means caused difficulties for German investigation, it also caused troubles for the Soviet Union itself. Their slow speed in the south was not surprising compared with that of some Soviet troops and South Germans who had already known about it.
The G regiment was not in a hurry to the north, but stationed in the southwest of Kursk. They waited for the Soviet army to prepare for a fight, and they also waited for Stalingrad behind them to tell a victory or defeat. After all, it was the attack root after having a solid foundation.
Belgorod has been occupied by the Germans, and the vanguard troops in guderian have almost occupied Buvoronezh all the way north along the banks of the Don River. Voronezh is also a few days away from Voronezh, the capital of Voronezh.
"It seems that the Soviet army lost Moscow South and made its own judgment. It seems that our A regiment’s oil shortage has finally leaked out, or … we, Mr. Stalin, think that Stalingrad and Baku are more important than the capital Moscow." guderian said to his chief of staff, "How is the rest of our troops?"
The chief of staff nodded and told guderian what he knew about the rest of the troops. "When we attacked the Don River, we didn’t encounter fierce enemy resistance. The troops have always maintained a high level of rest. Some troops changed into Tiger King tanks. On the whole, our advantages are very obvious."
"Well, for the time being, I will act with the Third Armored Division of the SS. The 52 Heavy Tank Destroyer Battalion is now stationed near Lischi directly behind the SS troops." guderian did not take out his killer weapon but hid all the newly changed Tiger King tank troops in the snow.
After unremitting efforts, Germany has finally improved the tank production capacity by automatic assembly line. Now the production speed of German Tiger King tanks is very fast, which is also the main reason why German frontline troops can replace Tiger King tanks on a large scale. With this new type of tanks, arcado and his generals are confident that they will gain an advantage in the tank battle.
The current situation of the whole battlefield is slightly different from the German plan. These differences are all caused by the south of the Soviet Red Army. The original plan of the German army was that the G regiment of guderian would continue to capture Tampov in the north and threaten the Moscow defense line from the flank. However, if the South G regiment of the Soviet army continues to the north, its flank will also be threatened. The German army revised its battle plan and decided to annihilate the South Soviet army in Kursk before continuing its north attack.
The plan to attack Tampov from the north has been postponed, and the Germans can deal with the counterattack first. The specific direction of the Soviet Red Army is well known. The Soviets can get out of the fastest speed and enter the Kursk region, which the Germans have not finished occupying.
Don’t worry about the weather in the Soviet Union and the fact that their muddled infrastructure has caused trouble to the Germans. It was not until zhukov moved his armored forces on such a large scale that he found that he had cheated others’ things and would sooner or later cheat himself! Soviet armored forces have to fight the damn road all the way south in addition to avoiding the interference and investigation of German planes.
A heavy rain made zhukov feel worried for several hours, but his follow-up troops got stuck in the mud. Hundreds of thousands of troops advanced in the dark, and the local people finally managed to get to Kursk with help.
The Soviet troops are busy preparing to continue the South War, and the Germans are not idle. The whole German intelligence department and the front-line reconnaissance troops are very nervous. Everyone wants to understand a problem, that is, where the Soviets want to fight and where they want to fight.
"hello? Hey! Yes! I’m the chief of staff of the G regiment. Is there any news from the reconnaissance troops directly under the regiment … I need to know exactly how many enemy troops there are and how many heavy weapons there are … Yes, yes, I know. "On the one hand, the chief of staff wants to get results from the reconnaissance forces directly under the regiment, and on the other hand, a group of reporters are receiving a dime a dozen reports from various units.
"The 26th Infantry Army has just come to Rogachev, their Soviet army, to exchange fire. It is impossible for the Soviet army to be the vanguard of the Soviet army south." An officer held his hand and reported that a lady official directly posted a map representing the enemy.
Guderian muttered and walked to the front of the map and carefully looked at the location of the city. "Rogachev Card … Well, it should be about the same. It is estimated that they also want to play a game with us in Voronezh first to get tired. Our army is frustrated and frustrated."
Just behind him, another command army liaison officer is communicating with the military about the specific war plan "Yes! I hope you can slow down each other’s southward speed by bombing railways and highways! I know you have done this, but I hope you can increase the bombing … "
You can vaguely hear the military officer in the receiver, too, because he is directly under the coordination department of the joint operations of the Eastern Army. There is not much aviation fuel in his hand-most of the fuel is held in the hands of the southern theater army, and the Soviet troops who are now executing strangulation belong to the central group of flying troops
Although the German army has expanded beyond the historical scale, I don’t know how much, but it is still possible to cover the bombing of such a long front from Leningrad to Stalingrad in one breath. Even in its heyday, the American army could not do it. Strategic bombers and medium bombers, even dive bombers, were both hit by Stalingrad and a few medium bombers in Moscow, and they could not play a decisive role.
"There will be two d217 bombers when we can take off here. We will try our best to carry out the obstacles, but it is not known how much we can do." The contact of the army there finally replied.
At this time, an officer of the busy headquarters walked behind guderian and handed the intelligence report to his own department and saluted at attention. "Long live the Fuehrer! General! The intelligence department has confirmed that the southern team has the 1 ST Army Commander of the Guards, General konev, the hand of zhukov; Another time I jumped out of the encirclement, another Soviet main force, the 3 rd Army of the Guards … The commander was General Aleksandr Vasilevsky. "
"Ha!" Guderian showed a fruit or expression to "really respect me. guderian actually put two of the most elite front armies against me."
He looked back and read it himself before looking up and asking, "Does the High Command know this information? How did the Fuehrer draw up the battle plan? What is the plan of the General Staff? Don’t let me continue to maintain the offensive posture? "
"The high command didn’t reach a direct order. The Fuehrer has ordered the General Staff to come up with an emergency plan." The officer immediately replied, "Marshal Blauchich is calling an emergency meeting to discuss such issues as solving problems."
Guderian knew that his flanking barrier troops were not the main German regiment, but the Italian Expeditionary Force (a few). It was absolutely impossible to expect this group of soldiers to cooperate with the Germans to stop the Soviet attack. They would have been "very hard" if they didn’t leave their positions to the Soviets.
Of course, there is a Romanian army behind this army, but this army is not particularly reliable. They lack heavy equipment such as tanks. If the Germans can’t resist the Soviet attack, this army will be as good as the Italian army in front of them.
"Command troops in situ on standby! Build a defense line! " Guderian arranged to fight without thinking. "We can’t wait for others to save us. At this time, no one can take care of our army."
He pointed to the map and drew a shortest defense line according to the German-controlled area. "The troops in the protruding part contracted rapidly to maintain the continuity of the front line … Deployed defense lines, distributed armored forces to strengthen our defense, counted the troops’ ammunition in depth, selected hidden areas and set up supply points …"
"Let the third armored division behind tie up and strengthen the Romanian troops behind. I need them to hold on for four hours less when the Soviet army detours." guderian sighed after arranging his own deployment before continuing to sigh. "The G regiment, which is best at playing offensive warfare, is going to play a purely defensive war today."
"Army knot! We have a new one! Check your equipment, oil and ammunition! All captains to the front to confirm the instructions! Move faster! " Everyone became busy as an officer shouted that the German tank outside the village had started its own engine.
The most powerful armored forces of the German army in the suburbs outside Lischi received a new battle order, and they marched west. For all of them, it was home and a direction that made them feel more cordial.
Chapter 911 912 Envy each other
It’s not easy for front-line troops to eat fresh fruit when it’s ordered to rely on the new tank skirt. There is an apple orchard here, which should not be ripe for people carrying assault rifles.
Tiger king tanks have obvious advantages against Soviet tanks, even the latest Stalinist tanks in the Soviet Union can compete. Unfortunately, Ryan has never had a chance to fight since he commanded the new Tiger king tanks.
Guderian hid them and kept them from showing up. Ryan, they walked behind a large group of grenadiers as if they were in Germany. If they didn’t occasionally see the roads, the bodies of the Soviet Red Army and some craters and ruins, they would have felt that they had returned to Germany.
Hearing the order, Ryan straightened up with the apple in his hand and went to the front of the tank and leaned over to the propaganda officer. Then he heard the order and realized that there was really a battle this time, so the turret No.113 Tiger King tank started up, drove the road from the field and entered the distant horizon.
The German new weapon Tiger King Tank Shock Absorbing System and Tiger Finish are two concepts. The advantages of rod shock absorbing structure have been studied by German engineers for a long time, and the later classic tank connection structure also has irreplaceable advantages. This structure is indeed much more powerful than Christie structure.
First of all, this structure is simple and reliable, and it almost never breaks down, which is a great advantage for the Germans who emphasize the reliability of tanks. In addition, the total amount of ammunition carried by Tiger King tanks is much higher than that of Tiger tanks, which is convenient for tanks to fight for a long time and is conducive to the elite troops to play their combat power
Of course, there is another advantage: the shock absorption effect of this suspension system is slightly better than that of Christie structure, so Raine feels sleepy when leaning against the tank turret hatch.
The whole 52nd heavy tank battalion changed its weapons, and most of them have been replaced by Tiger King Tank Battalion. The original Leopard tanks have also been replaced by second-hand Tiger Battalion. Now the whole 52nd battalion has no gasoline tanks, which is considered as logistics supply, and it has been simplified.
Marshal Brauchich’s final discussion result is to support guderian’s G Regiment Army as much as possible. There is nothing to support the G Regiment Army nearby, but Germany is holding the cards now, and guderian is not isolated.
When Shao Ryan was sleepy, the busy ground crew in the German front field airport dozens of kilometers away were preparing for the final steps of fighter plane take-off. The rainy weather for a few days made the road difficult to walk, but it also brought a sunny day to the whole war zone after the rain stopped. The weather did not cause any trouble to the soldiers of both sides. Everything was expected by everyone.
"Ready! Ready to take off at any time, "said two ground crew members and the pilot who was confirming himself." The fuel tank is full. I heard that the field airport in Romania has almost been built to cope with this force. "
"I’m not worried about the infrastructure over there, I’m worried that such a large-scale maneuver will affect the attendance of the plane." The pilot signed his name on a record form and kicked the scattered ropes to his plane
The co-pilot sergeant nodded, and both of them brought their headphones. These pilots are different from military pilots. They don’t wear thick leather jackets or leather flying hats, and goggles hang their necks at will.
Two people checked the instrument in the cockpit of an airplane, then waved to the ground crew on standby to signal that everything was all right, and then the co-pilot hit the top of his head. A huge propeller was horizontally placed outside their cabin and slowly rotated.
The propeller of this Odin helicopter rotates slowly, accelerates a little, and then finally rolls up the ground with a little dust, forming a blinding gangfeng. The helicopter slowly leaves the ground and the ground rope is tightened by great tension.
Then a German 75mm infantry gun with reduced weight was pulled up from the ground. The ground personnel waved their hands to command the plane to fly away safely. Odin helicopter’s strong dragging ability showed that it was easy to pull the 5 kg infantry gun to the sky.
Not far away, a similar Odin helicopter transport model is also taking off. In addition to being full of soldiers, the plane is also hung with boxes and shells. In a few days, two Odin helicopters have flown far away, except that these planes are full of materials that need to be transported far away.
"If you can’t even think about it before you put it, a battalion of infantry will be transported away so easily," sighed a helicopter pilot who was taking off in Odin. "It took only a few hours to send it to the flank to strengthen the Romanian army position … I can’t believe it."
"What is that?" The co-pilot smiled and said to his pilot while firing the engine, "This battalion is much more powerful than the ordinary battalion because they have our support!"
The propeller of their plane rotates, and then the plane flies with it. There is nothing hanging outside this plane, because there are two more rocket launching nests on the wings of the plane, and there are two 2 mm caliber guns on the front of the plane nose, which looks majestic.
"Here is the cover squadron! We have taken off! We have taken off! " While flying his own plane, the pilot chased the transport helicopter that took off first, while the ground command contacted dozens of Odin helicopters. The airport took off and flew straight to the area where they needed reinforcements.
Ryan was also tortured by the tiny bumps of the tanks, and he was sleepy. In front of him was the No.111 tank. Followed by tank no.112, Marcus complained all the way that he had recently dropped a lot of food supplies; Tank 113 was followed by tanks 114 and 115. They were replenished and sent to the battlefield to undergo another where will you go.
"Du, du, du, du …" A roar of dense engines came from the sky. Ryan narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance. Even German fighters sometimes flew low and said hello to friendly ground troops, but they wouldn’t fly so low.
Soren was curious and aimed at the direction of the sound, because he was wearing headphones and there was noise from the tank engine. When Soren looked over, the other party was very close
An Odin helicopter flew over his head and there were rocket launching nests hanging on both sides of the belly. It looked murderous, and then followed closely by this Odin armed helicopter. A helicopter with an infantry gun flew over Ryan quickly, squinting his eyes, and a breeze blew across his face, which made him feel very comfortable.
