As the fighting became more and more intense, the goals of the Soviet army became more and more clear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Because their target was completely locked on the German 4th Panzer Army, because in the understanding of the Soviet army, they thought that once the German 4th Panzer Army Group was eliminated first; Then the fate of Manstein's Army Group South, as well as Army Group A, was at stake.

Manstein, on the other hand, was now retreating his Army Group South towards Kharkov and defensive positions along the Dnieper.

At the same time, in order to win more troops, Chen Yanlong also agreed to Manstein's proposal to let Kluti's Army Group Center also retreat to the Dnieper River line immediately, and also shorten their defensive line by one-third.

Because in this way, the German army could immediately save a large number of troops to defend the key points on the Eastern Front.

And Moder's Ninth Army Group and the 2nd Army Group were immediately transferred to Admiral Hoult and the Fourth Army Group and Kempf Group.

Because the 4th Infantry Corps and the 48th Panzer Corps under the 52nd Panzer Army are now engaged in fierce battles with the Soviet Guards Tank Army.

To this end, Moder did not hesitate to expose the true strength of his armored forces, and hurriedly dispatched 250 T-54 tanks to the Orel landing site to support the operation.

In addition to Moder's 47th Panzer Corps, the main force of this German reinforcement also included the 23rd Infantry Corps and two other infantry divisions drawn from the 2nd Army Group.

Moreover, with the consent of Modell, the chief of staff, Hachert, he was also sent together to coordinate the command of the operation.

"Chief of Staff Hakhert! I heard that the famous tank commander of the Soviet army, Rybalko, was also sent over to deal with Admiral Hort's 4th Army Group! ”

The commander of the 47th Panzer Corps, Joachim? Admiral Lammerson said with some concern to Chief of Staff Hachlt, who was sitting next to him.

At this moment, the two of them were sitting in a tank command vehicle, following the rapid advance of the tank army.

"Yes! I've heard that it's a tough character to deal with! Even General Moder is very cautious! ”

Chief of Staff Hahr nodded in agreement.

"Then you say that Admiral Hult's tank command ability is great? Or is he awesome? ”

Admiral Laimerson Panzer suddenly wondered.

"It's hard to say! Because in January of this year, he belonged to the Voronezh Front, but he commanded troops to participate in the battle of Ostrogozzhisk-Rososh; Not only did he push his troops 140 miles away from our defensive front, but he also wiped out 15 of our divisions, though many of them were Italian and Hungarian! ”

"And in the past month, I have fought several times with other troops under the command of our General Moder, and they have won and lost!"

"Haven't you heard of that? Admiral Laimerson! ”

Chief of Staff Hachlt responded.

"I've heard of it! However, at that time, most of the troops that General Moder sent to fight him in the past were transferred from the 2nd Army Group! So the real battle situation, I just hearsay, I haven't seen it with my own eyes! ”

Admiral Laimerson's armored corps blushed and replied embarrassedly.

"It's okay! I'll tell you slowly if I have time, because I was there to direct the troops! ”

Chief of Staff Hachlt smiled slightly.

"Hey! It's better to wait for us to defeat this Rybalko and his 3rd Guards Tank Army! Let the name of our 47th Panzer Army Group resound the entire Soviet battalion! It's better to make them scared and frightened by us! ”

Admiral Laimerson's armored corps suddenly patted his chest and smiled happily.

"Well done! Come on! If you really manage to defeat them, I am afraid that not only will you be rewarded by Admiral Moder immediately, but I am sure that you will soon be able to receive and reward the Führer personally! ”

Chief of Staff Hakhert stared at the other party with appreciative eyes and encouraged.

"Hey, hey! I'll do my best! And with Chief of Staff Hakhult in command, we will definitely be able to win this battle! And I am also confident in our new tank group! ”

Admiral Laimerson's armored corps raised his thumbs, glanced at Chief of Staff Hachult, and said with a bright smile.

Then he shifted his gaze to his T-54 tank group, and Chief of Staff Hakhert naturally shifted his gaze to the tanks that were black and loud with earth-shattering rumbling sounds.

Before they knew it, they were suddenly lost in thought, but their thoughts were focused on how to defeat Rebalko and his 3rd Guards Tank Army.

And at this time, after almost an hour of fierce tank fighting, in front of the front-line positions of the 4th Army Group; Hundreds of tanks were destroyed and turned into piles of broken copper.

But the roar of German and Soviet shells, bombs, aerial bombs, and tanks still resounded fearfully across the entire land.

Hundreds of Soviet planes continued to operate unscrupulously over the defensive positions of the German 4th Panzer Army Group; One devastating bombshell after another, and even incendiary bombs, were dropped one after another, carrying out a comprehensive carpet bombardment of German positions.

The explosion of the bomb kicked up a sky full of smoke and dust, accompanied by the billowing smoke of the destroyed tanks; and the constant shuttle of Soviet planes all over the world, and corpses everywhere.

As a result, the entire battlefield has been transformed into a battlefield like hell, and the war is in full swing.

"Hey, hey! It was so cool to have bombing days without German planes to intercept them! We can bomb as much as we like, and we love to slaughter these German infantry and tanks as much as we like! Hahaha! Cool! ”

Soviet pilot Nosov laughed triumphantly as he flew his Il-2 fighter to bomb the bomb.

"Then you can blow up a little more! If you don't slow down, you will be robbed of all the credit by other comrades-in-arms! ”

Soviet pilot Ushakov also echoed happily.

"Don't worry! All the German troops below us are the targets of our killing spree today, and no one can rob us of the fat that is about to arrive! Hahaha! ”

Pilot Nosov laughed nonchalantly.

"Greedy ghost! Dealing with so many German troops at once, be careful to be swallowed! ”

Pilot Ushakov also responded in a joking tone.

"The more the merrier! I'm not afraid of these Germans, who have no aviation to cover, they are all lambs to the slaughter in my eyes! Hahaha! I'll kill as many as I come! ”

Pilot Nosov continued to laugh and laugh as he stared contemptuously at the frightened German infantry hiding below the plane and the German tanks that had been blown up.

It was only at this moment that suddenly a large number of W.Gr21210mm rockets suddenly attacked the pilot Nosov and the Il-2 fighter plane piloted by Ushakov.

Behind these W.Gr21210mm rockets is a large group of black and overwhelming Fw190A-4/R6 fighters.

"German fighter groups! How did they suddenly appear here! ”

The Soviet pilot, Nosov, and Ushakov at the same time were frightened and bloodless, and said in shock.
