"I think the opposite!" Shulka calmed down at this time, and after thinking about it for a while, he said to Zakhakavich: "Comrade Major, I think they were fooled!" ”

"Fooled? No, Comrade Shulka! Major Zakhakavich said: "I don't think so, if they had been fooled, they should have attacked Moscow from Tula instead of Volokolamsk!" ”

"I think they still want to attack Moscow from Tula, Major!" Shulka replied: "The purpose of their attack on Volokolamsk is to lure us there!" ”

As soon as Shulka said this, the officers suddenly felt that the situation seemed to be clear.

"You may be right!" Major Gavrilov said: "So what do we do now? Is it just going to wait? ”

"We don't have time to wait, it's the fifth day!" "Not to mention, if they break through to Volokolamsk, then there are two directions that pose a threat to Moscow at once, and then we will be in a dilemma!" ”

"Since they want us to reinforce Volokolamsk, then we will reinforce Volokolamsk!" Shulka said.

"Do you mean to say......" said Major Gavrilov, "with fake tanks like the 16th Army attacking Tver?" ”

"No, Comrade Gavrilov!" Shulka replied, "We've used this method before, and we can't fool the enemy!" ”

"That's it...... Real tank?! ”

*****

After dark, Guderian, who was in the command headquarters, received another phone call. Bock called.

"General!" Feng. "As you wish, the Russians have transferred the 'T34 tank brigade to Volokolamsk!" ”

"Of course, I'm sure!" Feng. Bock asked rhetorically, "What are you worried about?" ”

"I don't know, Your Excellency Marshal!" Guderian replied: "But I don't think it's going to be that simple!" ”

"Even if it doesn't be that simple, you're good enough to handle, aren't you?" Feng. "The 4th tank brigade is already in Volokolamsk, and they cannot stop our offensive in both directions at once!" Bock said: "The 4th tank brigade is already in Volokolamsk, and they cannot stop our offensive in both directions at once!" ”

Guderian hesitated, then said: "I don't think it's really the 4th Tank Brigade!" ”

"Do you suspect that the information is not true?"

"No, I think that's a message from the enemy on purpose!" Guderian replied: "I don't know why, I think the enemy wants the 3rd Panzer Division to attack Moscow!" ”

"I think you're overthinking, General!" Feng. Bock replied: "The multiple intelligence officers we have assigned in Moscow have provided consistent information, the 4th Tank Brigade has boarded the train and is headed for Volokolamsk, and they even saw the 'breakout hero'!" ”

"'Breakthrough to the British'?"

"Yes!" Feng. "It is said that the victories in these battles came from his idea, and the Russians are hyping him up," Bock said...... I think it's some kind of deception set up by the Russians to boost their morale, to put the credit on one person, and then to set up a hero as an example for others to follow......"

"Do you think so?" Guderian asked rhetorically.

"Of course!" Feng. Bock asked rhetorically, "Do you think he did it alone?" It's impossible, to escape from the Brest Fortress, to fight a good battle in Kiev, and then to Moscow to show its might, it's impossible, General! ”

"So, I wonder who told you this?"

Feng. Bock was speechless for a moment.

This information was told to Feng by intelligence officers. Bock's, if von. Bock did not believe in this, then Guderian, of course, also had reason not to believe that the 4th tank brigade was in Volokolamsk.

"I think we can make a decision later!" Guderian said: "The 6th Panzer Division is attacking Volokolamsk, isn't it? We can see if the 4th tank brigade in there is the 4th tank brigade! ”

Feng. Bock frowned, he was a little tired of Guderian's caution, von . Bock considered this caution excessive, even "timid...... This general must have been frightened by the 4th Tank Brigade.

However, because of Guderian's prestige, von. Bock didn't say anything, and after hanging up the phone, he let the 6th Panzer Division attack.

"Now?" Major General Lucas, commander of the 6th Armored Division, asked suspiciously: "But it's night, and our planes can't cover us!" ”

"Yes, now!" Feng. "What you have to do is not to break through the enemy's lines, but to find out if the enemy has a T34 tank in his hand, or to know which number of troops it is, understand?" Bock said. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal!"

One can imagine what the result will be, Feng. Bock immediately sent the results of the reconnaissance attack to Guderian, and added later: "For this result, we have lost three hundred soldiers and five tanks, which we are very sure to have destroyed by the T34, and we have captured two prisoners, who have confirmed that the information we have obtained is correct...... The 4th Tank Brigade is right in Volokolamsk! That's true! ”

Guderian, who was holding the telegram, couldn't help frowning.

He knew that Feng. What do these words that Bock later add, von. Bock wanted to take Moscow himself.

In a way, Feng. Bock's order was correct, because it was supposed to be a simultaneous attack from both directions, making it difficult for the enemy to balance left and right.

But for some reason, Guderian always felt that there was a lot of danger ahead.

Why is that?

Is it really because of the fear of the 4th Tank Brigade?

Guderian didn't know the answer, he only knew that he had to attack now.

After thinking about it, he called the commander of the 3rd Panzer Division and said: "Get ready, attack Moscow at dawn tomorrow!" ”

The Soviets threw real tanks in the Volokolamsk direction, and even the 4th Tank Brigade and the 333rd Infantry Regiment.

If this is not done, it will be difficult for the Soviets to deceive the Germans.

Shulka knows who his opponent is...... Guderian, known as the father of armor, is not so easy to deceive, as can be seen from the fact that the 3rd Panzer Division has been standing still in Tula.

"If real tanks are used to reinforce Volokolamsk!" Major Zakhakavich asked: "So what do we use to stop the 3rd Panzer Division?" ”

"There are 14 T34s in the underground warehouse that they don't know!" Shulka said: "Before the start of the war, we can urgently transfer back 17 T34s in the Volokolamsk direction!" If only 17 T34 and 333rd Infantry Regiments...... I think there's plenty of time to mobilize! The premise is that we keep the railway open and ready in Volokolamsk! ”
