Chapter 554: The Education of the Blood of the Soldiers Coming to the City
After withstanding the fire of three Prinz Eugen, after a day, the troops of Student and Admiral Scheer finally broke into the city of Kiev. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As if knowing that he was full of hatred of the Germans, the two heavy artillery battalions of the Soviet army each launched a round of Soviet punishment, then disappeared and never fired again.
The Russians were not fools, seeing the German reconnaissance planes hovering in the sky near the position, they did not commit crimes against the wind, but quietly squatted under the camouflage net of the position and watched the fight between the air forces.
Soon after the German reconnaissance planes appeared on the east bank of the Dnieper River, Soviet Air Force fighters came to drive them away, and the antiaircraft artillery units on the ground joined the ranks of the planes one step earlier.
During the chase and chase, a FI-156 reconnaissance plane was shot down, and two FI-282 hummingbird helicopters that ventured across the Dnieper River were unfortunately hit by anti-aircraft fire and fell to the ground staggeringly, staging a great scene of hummingbird falling.
It was not until night that the two artillery positions were brought back to life, using the cover of night to shift positions.
The disappearance of the two artillery positions, the removal of the greatest threat to the Germans on the northern and southern flanks, and the reactivation of the forces of Generals Student and Scheer.
It was the Sixth Army that really solved the problem with a frontal attack.
Passing through the fortified area, the Sixth Army penetrated the Soviet lines head-on, exposing the flanks of the Soviet troops on the northern and southern flanks in the northern and southern suburbs.
After receiving Khrushchev's order, the Soviet troops on the northern and southern flanks were forced to withdraw into the city, and street fighting broke out in Kiev.
In the north of Kyiv, Lieutenant Rabin, with Abraham and the whole platoon of brothers, rushed to the city of Kyiv in great strides.
Passing through the previous battlefield and witnessing the huge craters, and the scattered gun parts and human organs next to the craters, Lieutenant Rabin felt that this battle was not quite what he had imagined.
Seeing the rows of buildings and towering chimneys in front of him, Lieutenant Rabin cursed in his heart.
Damn, how come there are so many buildings that haven't been flattened?
As the distance approached, the more the dilapidated buildings looked more and more like hideous man-eating monsters.
"There's a truck over here." Abraham's voice came.
Lieutenant Rabin looked in the direction of Abraham's finger and saw a Gass truck parked on the side of the road.
Lieutenant Rabin made a gesture, and Abraham rushed to the truck, scrambled into the cab, endured the foul smell of the cab and the harassment of countless flies, and after a rummag-and-turn search, finally found a toolbox under his seat.
Finding a medium-sized screwdriver inside, Abraham slipped out of the cab, fiddled with the door on the left side of the cab, and then ran to the right side of the cab.
When Abraham returned to Lieutenant Rabin, he had an extra truck mirror in his hand.
Pinching a metal rod nearly forty centimeters long and the thickness of an index finger in the rearview mirror, Lieutenant Rabin clearly saw his sweat-stained face in the palm-sized round mirror.
"Why is there only one?"
"That lens is broken and doesn't work." Abramham explained.
Without further questioning, Lieutenant Rabin led Abraham to catch up with the large army and rushed into the city with him.
The streets and alleys of Kyiv near the suburbs are full of German soldiers, and the buildings in the neighborhood are filled with deafening gunfire.
Seeing Lieutenant Rabin and Abraham and the others, a tall and lanky captain shouted, "Why are you here?" ā
Lieutenant Rabin waved the rearview mirror in his hand and said nervously:
"I'm sorry, Instructor Ahan. I delayed a bit of time to find this thing. ā
In each of the three Honorary Jewish Divisions, Chen Dao arranged a number of German instructors ranging from 200 to 300, on the one hand, to teach anytime and anywhere, so that the Honorary Jewish troops could improve their combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, and on the other hand, to supervise the troops and prevent mutations in the troops.
Captain Ahan was one of the instructors in Lieutenant Rabin's battalion and was a mixed race of Germanic and Jewish descent.
"You are late, take your men, along this street, clear the houses on both sides, and the infantry artillery will follow you."
After giving Lieutenant Rabin an explanation, Captain Ahan shouted, "Mortarmen, come to me." ā
With the rearview mirror diagonally inserted into the waistband, Lieutenant Rabin held an assault rifle and shouted: "The first shift is on the left, the second shift is on the right, up." ā
Two squads of infantry opened the way in front, taking advantage of the low houses on both sides of the street as cover, and cautiously touched the front.
For the first two hundred meters, Lieutenant Rabin and his men were making good progress, and then they ran into big trouble.
The houses in the suburbs were dominated by low one- and two-story buildings, and as the battle line deepened, Lieutenant Rabin found himself at the junction of the suburbs and the city.
Looking up, behind the three or four rows of houses, there is a group of seven or eight high-rise buildings, each of which is six or seven stories high.
In the telescope, Lieutenant Rabin could see that the top floors of the four relatively intact buildings, as well as the middle floor, were spewing clouds of gray-white gunpowder smoke of various sizes from the windows facing him.
It is clear that the Russian troops in the building are firing at their own troops.
Soon, Lieutenant Rabin saw a medic running past with a wounded man on his back.
After rushing to the front line of the battle and understanding the situation with the first squad leader, Lieutenant Rabin learned that there were Russian troops hiding in the three or four rows of low houses in front.
These Russian troops hidden in civilian houses were covered by the fire of the Russian troops in the high-rise buildings behind them.
Faced with multi-directional and multi-layered fire from civilian houses and high-rise buildings, from the ground to mid-air, the infantry did not dare to charge at all.
Remembering the three-in-one street fighting tactics taught by Captain Ahan, Lieutenant Rabin gave Abraham a few words, and Abraham turned and left, and soon arrived with reinforcements.
The first to appear was a LE IG18 75mm infantry gun, followed by Captain Ahan with a mortar crew.
The two artillery groups each looked for their own positions, and the fierce shelling began.
The GRW34 81mm mortar opened fire first, and clouds of gunpowder smoke erupted from the top floor of the opposite building, and broken masonry flew to the ground.
The Soviets who had been active on the top floor of the building also disappeared, and Lieutenant Rabin witnessed the magnificent sight of the Soviets falling from the roof of the building and turning into trapeze.
The 75mm infantry guns were aimed at the windows of buildings, and wherever there was a shining Soviet figure, at least one high-explosive shell would be fed.
On the tall building, facing Lieutenant Rabin, clouds of gunpowder smoke erupted from the windows of the building.
Judging by the density of the smoke explosion, not only was an infantry cannon suppressing enemy fire from the building, but friendly forces were clearly using the same tactics to clear the building.
Seeing that the Soviet fire on the building was suppressed, Lieutenant Rabin waved and shouted: "Follow me." ā
After saying that, he rushed out of the corner where he was hiding and led his subordinates to clean up the low houses.
Without the suppression of the fire on the buildings behind, the battle against the houses went much smoother.
Thanks to the good greenery, the craters left by the Luftwaffe air raids, and the rubble of the broken houses, Lieutenant Rabin and his men managed to approach the houses without any problems.
Grenades flew into the window with white smoke, and the desperate screams of Soviet machine gunners in the room were clearly heard by Lieutenant Rabin across the wall.
After clearing two houses with grenades, Lieutenant Rabin found himself getting closer and closer to the tall buildings in front of him.
Between the high-rise buildings and the low-rise residential areas, there are wide streets separating them, and with the sidewalks on both sides of the street, he and his subordinates have to rush through more than 100 meters of open space. And it's an open field without any obstacles.
"Machine gunner, seize advantageous terrain and prepare for fire cover."
After a thrilling close-quarters battle, Lieutenant Rabin and his men cleared the Soviet troops from the civilian houses and prepared to begin attacking the tall buildings in the distance.
In this round of fighting to clean up the houses, Lieutenant Rabin lost six of his men.
Carefully staring at the building in the distance, Lieutenant Rabin and Abraham rushed to a house facing the street, almost touching the corner of the house, and a strange scene occurred.
In the corner of the house across the path on the right, two machine gunners, who had been crouching, seemed to be infected by him and Abraham, and bravely ran out of their hiding place and rushed to the door of the house.
Kicking the door open, Lieutenant Rabin heard a loud bang, and the leading machine gunner screamed and flew back to the side of the road, and the other machine gunner was knocked into the air, and then covered his face and fell to the ground howling.
Lieutenant Rabin's mind went blank as he stared at the two screaming men.
What weapons did they encounter?
After thinking about it for a long time, Lieutenant Rabin remembered a weapon mentioned by Instructor Yahan, a treacherous mine set up with a combination of grenades and wire.
Only this weapon can explain everything that has just happened.
The encounter between the two machine gunners made Lieutenant Rabin quickly recall his education and complete a blood-colored theory and practice.
Sweat ran down his forehead, and Lieutenant Rabin was terrified for a while, maybe the house he was leaning on had a treacherous mine at the door.
Shaking his head, Lieutenant Rabin waved his hand and shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Help the wounded." Watch out for those houses, there are treacherous mines in them. ā
After giving the order, Lieutenant Rabin and Abraham, not daring to go through the main entrance, jumped through the window into the building next to them, and carefully checked the doorway before they were relieved and bold to move around the room.
Summoning a group of machine gunners and having them set up machine guns behind the window facing the street, Lieutenant Rabin and Abraham leaned over to the main entrance, ready to organize their troops for a final charge.
After waiting patiently for a few minutes, Lieutenant Rabin waited for reinforcements, an S. IG33 heavy infantry crew.
The gunners parked the infantry guns on the side of the road, hid behind the gun shields, adjusted the muzzles.
A barrage of machine-gun bullets flew from the building, clanging and flapping with gunnons, but they still couldn't stop the gunners.
A 150-millimeter shell blasted an irregularly shaped hole on the first floor of the building facing the street, leaving the road leading to the interior of the building wide open.
After observing the battlefield situation for a while, Lieutenant Rabin took a few breaths of heaviness after observing the battlefield situation for a while, and then rushed out of the room with a brisk stride, ran a distance of more than 100 meters like lightning, and pasted it to the wall next to the hole on the first floor of the building.
Less than five seconds later, Abraham was behind him.
Ten seconds later, on both sides of the hole, there were soldiers in Rabin's platoon.
After throwing a grenade into the hole, Lieutenant Rabin took out the rearview mirror pinned to his waist, stretched out to peek inside the building, and decisively shouted: "There is no one inside, let's go up." (To be continued.) )
