The morning battle, which ended with the retreat of the German troops. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The losses on both sides of the battle were heavy, and Alexander and his militiamen were really unbearable in comparison, and after counting the number of troops, reality almost overwhelmed the veteran.

"The losses are so severe, we are now left with one hundred and thirty people. Defending the city, the troops are really stretched! Sorrow was written on his face, but he also saw that his own soldiers, most of them, were not moved by the huge casualties.

"Report to the sir, we still have more than twenty wounded now, and there are only a hundred people who can fight." A soldier corrected Alexander's self-talk. In this way, the situation in front of them is even worse.

"There are only more than 100 people, and this amount of troops is really very small in this war." Alexander looked at the warriors gathered around him and said with a wry smile, "Comrades, you were peasants or citizens before. Now we might all die here. ”

"How's that going!? I am Belarusian, I died in Belarus, I die without regrets! A soldier shouted at the top of his voice, and a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and a large number of soldiers erupted into an astonishing roar. They are telling a simple and simple long-cherished wish - blood will not be shed, and they will not swear a truce!

Alexander was inspired by the heroism of the warriors, and he stood on the top of the ruins with tears in his eyes.

"I'm probably going to die here, this is where I'm going to die! For the sake of the country, I have done my best! With a long sigh, Alexander raised his right hand and saluted the whole group.

The vast number of militia also returned the favor, and the tragic atmosphere was spreading.

Alexander then ordered: "Our reinforcements will arrive soon, but we may not be able to hold out until they arrive." So we have to keep fighting to draw these damned Nazis against us, and most of you will probably die honorably in the end. After that, the reinforcements will avenge us and kill all these Nazis! ”

"Ulla! Ulla! ”

The shouts of more than 100 people were not very loud, but they showed everyone's attitude.

The living immediately began to build new fortifications and hurried to eat dry rations in preparation for a possible enemy attack in the afternoon.

But the tide of battle changed far more than Alexander expected.

He was a man who had fought positional warfare, when he served in units west of Kiev and was ordered to hold off the Germans. His Front was under the command of Kirponos at that time, and under the correct judgment of the battle situation, these Soviet armies west of Kiev were difficult and tenacious to hold back the German army. Yes, at the beginning of the war, the Soviet army, which Ukraine was fighting head-on, did not suffer a large-scale rout like the friendly forces of Belarus.

Alexander experienced the most brutal positional battles, and he knew very well how the Germans were attacking. For example, before the tank forces rushed in like a tidal wave, it was the German air force that launched the first offensive.

In Homnitsch, he almost felt that his ears were bad.

"What's going on? It was my ears that were shattered by the shelling just now. How could there be such a familiar rumble in the sky, could it be a thunderbolt on a sunny day? Doubts drove him to stay outside and listen.

Finally, he was sure that it wasn't his ears that were wrong, and the rumble was getting louder and louder, and the sound was very familiar to him. Alexander's whole body became frightened, and he froze. "Run! All...... Everyone, run! ”

"Sir? What did you say? A militiaman asked.

"I command you to run!" In desperation, Alexander grabbed the militiaman's collar, "The enemy's air force is coming, this sound is coming from a dive bomber!" They're going to raid the city! ”

Ten Stuka dive bombers, marching in V-formation, towards Homnitsch.

Now the sky is gray, there are still small snowflakes in the sky, and the temperature is only minus 10 degrees, which is enough for airplanes to fly.

They were high in the sky, looking at the vast land, everywhere was covered with snow, and even the forest was piled up with snow and turned white. But among these whites, a large cloud of black comes into view, and that is Homnitsch.

Because the city and its surrounding land had long been blown up, the black soil had been turned out of the surface, and it suddenly appeared in the snow, and the Germans immediately determined their target.

But the people in Homnich, they don't know what a dive bomber is, and they don't know what a Junker 87 is. Here only Alexander and his veterans knew, and even more so about their horrors.

"Everyone, immediately look for cellars and basements, general bunkers are not safe at all! After that, leave it to fate! ”

How did the militia face enemy air raids? Alexander shook his head, half of his ambition had been defeated by the cruel reality, he grabbed his veteran and quickly burrowed into the basement that served as the headquarters. He didn't know what happened after that, or he could survive, or this basement was his coffin!

Ten dive bombers locked onto the target, and they had already begun to raise the fuselage.

Dive bombing was the pursuit of the most accurate bombing under the scientific and technological conditions of the time. In this era, there were no laser-guided bombs, and bombers still adopted primitive methods, but because of the equipment of bomb sights, high-altitude bombing was much more accurate.

But Germany pursued greater efficiency, the dive bomber was born, and later, the concept of this type of aircraft led to the invention of the ground attack aircraft.

Ten pilots slammed into the joysticks, and the nose of the plane was pulled up, which was to prepare for the dive bombing. It moves like diving, with the pilot pushing the joystick when the plane is almost at speed. Its on-board angle gauge, the pointer immediately changed until the angle became ninety degrees, and the fighter had fallen in completely vertical free fall. Directly below the pilots is the city of Homnitsch.

The pilot is simply on a mission, the city is already in ruins, and there are still enemies? They did not suspect it, and decisively dropped all the bombs.

Twenty aerial bombs of three hundred kilograms, falling from the sky at once!

The tail of these bombs, fan-like timers spinning wildly. These are bombs designed to bomb cities, and they will use inertia to smash into buildings, after which the timer will expire and cause a violent explosion.

Such an explosion was tragic, a large number of bombs really smashed into the rubble, and a violent explosion broke out very quickly.

The whole of Homnich was like an erupting crater, with huge amounts of smoke and dust rising into the air, and violent shock waves could be seen in the air.

The hot wind swept across the city, and the last buildings were also reduced to debris in the sky under strong pressure and violent shock waves. Under the smoke, Homnage seemed completely lifeless, and all the buildings on the surface collapsed.

Every aerial bomb blew up a crater up to six meters deep (the crater could have been as deep as 10 meters due to the freezing of the land), and many of the militiamen who hid were unlucky, or it became pointless to dodge - they and a large amount of soil and bricks were blown away and fell into countless fragments.

Seeing such a scene, Holstauffen and his fighters all walked out of the battalion commander and looked at the thrilling scene in the distance.

"It's so violent, but thanks to the huge SS we drew in the snow, they didn't hurt us by mistake!" A soldier muttered beside the battalion commander.

"That's right, this weapon of violence is ours, thank God, we weren't accidentally injured!"

Holstauffen immediately ordered all the soldiers to assemble immediately. The soldiers saw the smoke and black dust rising in the distance, obscuring the sky like a volcanic eruption, and the dull sound of explosions echoed in the sky. The enemy must have been blown up!

"Now, this damn city has been bombed to the ground by our air force. The enemy is completely annihilated, we will start preparing now, and in half an hour we will start moving! Capture Homnich! ”

The German soldiers swept away the defeat of a few hours earlier, they immediately checked their equipment, their rifles were bayonets, bullets were pressed into the magazines, and the whole army was ready for a surprise.

So, Alexander and his militia were really killed by this wave of air strikes?

Yes, most of the militia fighters, and some are trapped under the rubble. Because of this series of explosions, it was like a magnitude 7 earthquake, and most of the people were blown away along with a huge amount of earth and rock, and it was really lucky to survive. Of course, the survivors basically went into a coma.

Alexander was one such lucky man, he hid in the basement of the "headquarters" with a dozen people. But the building collapsed, and the exit was covered with masonry, with only a large number of small gaps that allowed outside air to enter.

But the continuous explosions had stunned the people inside, and after a few hours, everyone woke up one after another.

"It's so dark! Who's flashlight? Is everyone still alive? Alexander asked wearily.

"I ...... I'm alive! Thankfully, I don't seem to be hurt! A soldier said.

Thankfully, someone's flashlight was still working, and a faint light flickered inside the ruins.

Now everyone saw their own clues, and the current situation is extremely bad, as if this place has really become a prison, and all the "prisoners" are in a mess.

"The airstrikes seem to be over, we're trapped!" One soldier said regretfully.

"Unfortunately, we still have a lot of provisions, food and water, and we won't starve, thirst or freeze to death right away." Another soldier said.

Alexander's head was wounded and some blood was shed. After figuring out the current situation, he immediately set about digging the ruins with one hand, eager to escape from the "tomb".

"Now that we've lost the radio, maybe we're the last survivors, this damn airstrike has defeated us, and now we have to get out." Alexander began the excavation with his dusty hands, and seeing that the commander was still not desperate, the whole crew went into action. (To be continued.) )
