Chapter 436: Hoffman's Difficult Breakout

Yang Mingzhi led his troops to attack, but the offensive was perceived in advance by the nervous enemy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, this was purely a coincidence, and the German machine gunners saw some strange shaking in the woods and immediately opened fire. It was a recoilless artillery position that the Soviet army was erecting, and the sudden blow also made Yang Mingzhi make a wrong judgment.

"Damn! They found us anyway! Comrades, now start the offensive! With an order, the central units of the Soviet army began to advance.

They sought cover between tree trunks to dodge enemy machine-gun bullets.

The surprise attack took the Germans by surprise, and those who were resting immediately remembered the horrors of yesterday - the enemy is coming again! They were very lucky to break out yesterday, and hundreds of them were unfortunately shot or captured by the Soviets, and the final result was death.

Hoffman was so surprised that he cursed a few words at his crow's mouth. He said to Freud, who was also nervous, "Friend, the enemy has come here." I'm afraid that today is really our fateful day, and I am ready to die in battle. And you, at your own convenience. ”

Freud nodded, touched his gun, and if the enemy succeeded, then he could kill himself to avoid shame. He said diligently: "Hoffman, my subordinates are all under your command!" I hope you fight well, and maybe, we can break through. ”

"Okay! I will, it's all wrapped up in me now! ”

Hoffman took the submachine gun thrown by one of the soldiers and threw himself into the attack. Even if most of the people are emaciated, they still have the ability to pull the bolt and pull the trigger, so that the enemy will be much more fearful, and their rash Ulla charge will turn into a stupid death.

Yang Mingzhi witnessed the enemy's machine guns firing frequently, and the bullets from the tongue of fire spewed sawdust from the trunk of the tree where the Soviet soldiers were hiding, and the tree in the sky would collapse if it was hit again.

The attacking force lost some of its strength and was difficult to advance again!

Yang Mingzhi looked at the lower-level political commissars in the team, they were definitely the main battle faction, and now, they were not honestly lying on the ground to seek countermeasures.

"If it were in any other unit, you would have kept your guns on the heads of the soldiers and ordered them to move towards the artillery fire! The result is naturally the death of the soldiers, and you rush the hardest, the first to die! Yang Mingzhi gritted his teeth, he is not this kind of person who does not care about the lives of soldiers and rigidly enforces infantry regulations.

Now the troops on both flanks must have heard the gunfire and began a tactical detour, when they will attack from both directions in the rear of the enemy!

As for the resistance encountered by the middle troops, Yang Mingzhi also has his own magic weapon.

He jumped to the recoilless gun position and asked Doronin in a loud voice, "How are your artillery now?" I want you to blow up the enemy's machine-gun positions! ”

"The artillery will be ready immediately!"

Doronin knew that the fighter plane was fleeting, so he simply got his hands on it himself and operated a cannon with a few comrades.

Since the order to fire freely had been given, Doronin pulled the trigger as soon as he finished adjusting. Huge gunpowder gas gushed, shells flew out, and under the operation of elite gunner Doronin, one of the enemy's machine-gun positions was eliminated.

"Well done! Doronin! Keep up the good work! Yang Mingzhi patted him on the back excitedly, but the pressure of the artillerymen was also huge.

This time the shells were very sufficient, and Doronin still had the capital to squander. Mortars were not very useful in the forest, and the German artillery counterattack was very ineffective, because many shells were blocked by tree trunks.

Recoilless shells flew over the heads of the attacking troops, and they passed through the woods and smashed into the enemy's hastily formed positions.

"Comrades! There is a gap in the enemy's defenses! For Stalin! Ulla! A junior commissar stood up, chanted uplifting slogans, and led the charge with a submachine gun. Below, how could the soldiers let go of this golden opportunity, they walked like flying, and the enemy's first line of defense was broken!

The pressure on Hoffman was enormous, and the enemy in front of him looked like there were hundreds! Maybe because of the view of the tree trunks, their actual strength is in the thousands?

"This is my last battle, and if I die, it's fate!" Hoffman gritted his teeth and simply rushed to the front line with the guards!

The soldiers in front of him began to retreat again, and he did not hesitate to fire at the deserters! His guards did the same, chanting in unison: "Deserters will be shot!" ”

However, this pressure could not prevent more people from fleeing, and Hoffman soon saw the enemy's front for the first time he had seen the enemy so closely. The way they show their teeth and claws really has a hint of the Yellow Peril, and it is indeed terrifying to people.

At the same time, the sound of "Ula" came from two directions! It was the troops of Lavrenj and Evgeny, who appeared at the right time and immediately dealt a favorable blow to the fleeing enemy.

It was difficult for the German army to organize an effective defense in a hurry, and besides, these people were too tired!

The Soviets could not afford to miss the opportunity, and the fighters of these two battalions put bayonets on their rifles. Besides, because the Soviet army captured a large amount of German equipment, Yang Mingzhi knew very well that in forest operations, only firepower was everything, and accuracy could be sacrificed.

A large number of captured MP38s and general-purpose machine guns were thrown into a powerful barrage, and the panicked German troops had just held their feet, and most of them were killed like mowing grass without understanding the situation. The living began to fight back, as a result of which the bayonets of the Soviet troops were already poked in front of them.

Attacked from three directions, even with 3,000 men, it is difficult to resist! Hoffman knew too well the condition of his own people, and if the enemy wanted to, he could simply complete annihilation.

"Perhaps, it's time to surrender?" Such a thought flashed through Hoffman's mind, and he immediately stamped his foot and cursed himself: "What stupidity, how can I surrender?" ”

He immediately said to the soldiers around him: "Gentlemen, we may all die in battle today!" Are you afraid? ”

These soldiers have always followed Hoffman, and they are also in the best spirits. Naturally, they swore to die in battle, but the others were afraid of mass surrender.

No, some German soldiers were already on their knees, isolated and desperate for pardon, only to be poked with guns. The Soviet soldiers have always been itching their teeth against the Germans, why should they accept surrender when they get the opportunity to kill them?

Hoffman chose to avoid it for a while, and he began to shrink his formation, only to be noticed by the snipers.

A bullet hit his hat, and Hoffman subconsciously fell.

"What bad luck! You didn't hit! As a sniper, Natasha said helplessly while holding the binoculars.

It was star fruit that fired this shot, and the muzzle of the gun was still smoking, why did the enemy's senior officer only hit the hat?

"Alas, I'm no match for you after all! This marksmanship is a little bit worse, and the result is completely different. Star fruit shrugged regretfully, if she hit it well enough, Hoffman wouldn't have to worry about anything else.

Hoffman, who was lucky not to die, changed into the steel helmet of an ordinary soldier, and the blow just now was extremely close to death! After learning from the pain, he made a difficult decision!

He was still proud of his death in battle just now, and decided to lead the remnants to break through, after all, the whole army was really annihilated, and I am afraid that the entire 715th Division will also be finished, and the number may be canceled!

Hoffman immediately gathered his troops and said to the remnants: "Gentlemen! We must retreat, and if we continue to fight, everyone will die! But we can't surrender, you all see, the enemy simply doesn't accept surrender! Now follow me to break through, this is our only chance to survive! ”

If there was a way to live, who would want to die? In the midst of the chaos, Hoffman was able to command nearly 2,000 men, many of whom were unarmed. They chose the direction of Ravlendi's attack, and these 400 people were attacked by 2,000 people, which really frightened him!

"Sure enough, it's still too far-fetched to annihilate a large army with a small number of troops!" He was desperately organizing troops to block, and the disadvantage of his forces led the enemy to break through the blockade. (To be continued.) )
