Chapter 578: Bombardment in the Night

The forest was already a mess, and the German positions were far away, and Lothaheim prepared two battalions as reserves. The battle in the www.biquge.info forest must have been particularly fierce, and he was a little worried for a while. "If you continue to send people at this time, the casualties will definitely be very large, so you just have to wait."

However, it didn't take long for Lawrence from the front line to reach the regimental headquarters, and he shouted hoarsely into the radio intercom: "The enemy's fire is too strong, and our casualties are unknown!" Bullets are running out! Come and support us! ”

What else can Lotharheim do? The tide of battle had already taken him by surprise, and he asked loudly: "Lawrence, your enemies are only a hundred!" Your battalion can win against them. ”

"To hell with it!" There was a loud stream of invectives on the other end of the walkie-talkie, and Lawrence dared to say anything in the depths. "Now only idiots believe that there are only a hundred enemies, and you are an idiot as the regimental commander! If we don't help, we'll be wiped out! ”

Seriously offended by words, Lothaheim, of course, was angry. However, the cry for help that can make Lawrence tear out his throat can only show that the front line is tight. He immediately shouted: "You hold on to me, I will send two battalions to reinforce you!" Send artillery to cover you! ”

"Don't! To hell with your artillery! You're going to blow us up with the enemy! I've lost a lot of money, and now I have to withdraw! Then you guys are going to blast at our location, we're in the D050 area! ”

Now Lothaheim is very messy, the fire of a hundred enemies will not be very strong, and the forest in the distance is breaking out in an unusually fierce gun battle. Lawrence's men couldn't even stand it, and they went back the way they came.

The situation of the war did not develop according to his plan at all, and since the actual strength of the Soviets was more hidden, it simply followed Lawrence's wishes and opened fire on the possible territory!

This infantry regiment had not many heavy guns, a total of ten 75-mm field guns, and its power was only a huge damage to the enemy in dense formation. When there are a large number of obstacles in the environment, such as rocks and vegetation, the power is much weaker.

The artillery received an urgent order to open fire, and the Germans also set up a coordinate system for the convenience of defense, and in their strict style, the division of the area was more detailed.

The gun emplacements quickly adjusted their direction and firing angles, and Lothaheim also gave the "fisherman" and "bait" the order to retreat urgently.

The artillerymen shook the turntable desperately, and the shells were taken out of the ammunition boxes. These professionals are in place and follow the instructions of the regimental commander at any time.

Lothaim and his retinue hurried back to the regimental headquarters, by which time the artillery must have been ready, and on the other hand, the gunfire in the forest was much weaker.

He was well aware that perhaps the Soviets had begun to flee for their lives. He immediately picked up the phone of the regiment headquarters and shouted at the artillery battalion: "Now we are firing extremely fast, and each one will fire ten rounds at the fastest speed." ”

The field artillery operated by the Germans was exactly the same model as the one captured by the Soviet army before, and after Zhu Yuan was ready, the gun emplacements began to resolutely carry out the order.

You must know that the high frequency of artillery fire is very damaging to the barrel. The artillerymen were given a dead order, and they were throwing fire on the target with maximum efficiency.

Artillery fire began to roar, and the German positions under the cover of night were lit up! The fire brought by the cannon is extremely dazzling, and accompanied by a deafening roar, it can be heard for dozens of miles!

When a cannonball fired, the shell immediately popped out, and the soldier with the next shell was impatient to stuff it into the turret. This action is done in one go, and people have become "human flesh automatic filling machines".

Super high efficiency with super fierce fire density, and continuous whistling sound.

The more than 1,000 men led by Barzen were already rapidly retreating, and Lavrenti, who was acting as the rearguard, crackled and fought with the invisible enemy for a long time, and finally began to retreat.

Only a handful of enemies served as the last cover, and after determining that the enemy might disappear, they were also ready to evacuate.

But at this time, the neighing of artillery fire was heard by everyone.

Ravrenti's instinctive fear rose, and he shouted hoarsely at everyone: "Fools! Run for your life! Come on! ”

He couldn't help but roar, and almost all of them were like fried cats, and one by two began to run wildly in the moonlight. Even though the light was too dim, they were able to maintain a high speed as they were good at forest combat.

It's a pity that the shells came too quickly!

There was a continuous explosion in the forest, and the people of Ravrendi did not have to worry about seeing the road ahead, and right behind them, the forest had been blown up and ignited.

Many of the red pines have been blown down, and these tall and tall trees rich in pine resin make excellent fuel. A large number of birch trees were cut down by the shock wave, and the heat wave blew all around, so it can be said that the camp of Ravlian retreated in the scorching.

The veterans of this battalion have experienced all kinds of tragic battles and have a very high psychological quality, but many people who have been transferred from the militia cannot accept the sudden and cruel scene for a while. Thanks to the veterans who set an example, coupled with the hard work, the retreat did not turn into a rout.

But Lavrenti still suffered considerable losses, and the last covering troops were covered by continuous explosions, and they were already reduced to ashes in the flames.

At the critical moment, Lavrendi could no longer take care of them, the shelling did not last long, and the casualties caused were not serious. If the worst thing is that it hasn't rained in this area for a while, although the weather is a bit abnormal, these lit red pines are burning wildly, and the fire is getting more and more intense.

The fire was slowly getting bigger, and the sky was illuminated red, and the light was obscuring the moonlight.

The air here is so clear that even the people who are behind the Soviet radio relay station in ambush in the ruins of Khomnich can see the sky in the distance unusually red. Considering that I had heard a dull roar just now, the Land of Fire must be a battlefield!

After a while, Balzen, who was retreating, shouted hoarsely into the walkie-talkie: "Tell the division headquarters!" We've been shelled! The enemy designed a trap, and most of our troops successfully evacuated, with unknown casualties! ”

The information was reported truthfully, and the three people guarding the division headquarters of the blacksmith village were immediately shocked by this information, and their tired expressions were swept away.

Yevlov even threw the iron cup directly on the ground and cursed: "Damn the Nazis, they actually bombed us with artillery!" And the plan for the escape of that damned prisoner of war, what else is there to say now, it was a hoax from start to finish! ”

Yang Mingzhi was also greatly surprised, he bent down to pick up the division commander's cup, and patted him on the back again. "Calm your anger, Yevlov! The battlefield is at least 70 kilometers away from us, and it is difficult for us to exercise reasonable control over the battlefield. At least the Balzen forces are safe now, and we should now think about how to deal with it! ”

"Then you say! What are we going to do? Yevlov pinched his waist, and his anger was cut down a lot.

Even if the enemy is setting a trap, it should be infantry dispatched. The so-called escape of the prisoners of war may have been a "snake out of the hole" from the beginning, and they did not know where the Soviets were, so they used this trick to be able to fight head-on (or at least in their relative advantage). Therefore, when it was discovered that the Soviet army was huge, it decisively used artillery bombardment.

Yang Mingzhi had the final say on his own reasoning, and both Yevlov and Yelentina felt reasonable. In the end, the order given to Balzen was simple: to retreat beyond the range of German artillery and to rest immediately.
