Chapter 193: Commander Rybalco, the Armored Pioneer, appears

The Hungarian Air Force, which was besieging this Soviet squadron this time, was the 101st Fighter Wing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It has two brigades, 101/I and 101/II, and the 101/I Brigade is now the most ferocious 'Puma Brigade' that charges into the trap and fights.

The brigade also has 3 squadrons, 3, 4 and 5 squadrons.

As soon as the air battle began, the Hungarian Air Force first destroyed four Il-2 fighters.

In this regard, the Soviet air force was shocked.

"These enemy forces are not Germans, they are Hungarian aviation! Attention everyone! Don't panic! They are not as powerful as the German army! ”

Soviet pilot Bagosev shouted at the pilot Chelsko in a comforting tone.

"I see! Just wait and see how I shoot down these Hungarian planes! Hey! I'm the ace pilot! ”

Soviet pilot Chelsko proudly responded.

"Hey! Looking at your triumphant appearance, it seems that I will also use real efforts to let these Hungarian air forces know who is better! ”

Soviet pilot Bagoshev also restrained his panic and said a little excitedly.

As soon as he finished speaking, six W.Gr21210mm rockets suddenly appeared behind the Il-2 fighter he was piloting.

"Oops!"

Seeing this, the pilot Bagoshev suddenly lost his soul and said in horror.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion then resounded through the sky, but quickly disappeared.

"Boom!"

Then there was a violent explosion, followed by a violent explosion.

Because the plane piloted by the pilot Chilsko was also destroyed in the sky, he was still looking down on the Hungarian Air Force proudly just now, so he was killed.

Before he died, his eyes widened unwillingly, and he was shot down in horror.

After a short pursuit, interception, tail biting; After evasion, counterattack, hand-to-hand combat and other aerial combat, an entire squadron of Soviet planes was completely annihilated by the Hungarian Air Force.

The Soviet aviation units that came in high spirits were first annihilated by the aviation units of the other side's client countries before they could even see the airfields and planes of the German army.

It was not at all unexpected for the Soviet side of the Warring States to do so, but the Hungarian pilot units were elated and added more confidence to their next battle.

Although they even shot down a few Yak-9 fighters of the Soviet army, they were still just as happy about the Soviet flying team that could completely annihilate one squadron.

At this time, the commander of the Soviet 3rd Guards Tank Army, Rybalko, was called the vanguard of the armor.

In the original history, he gave the fatal blow to Moder's troops at the Battle of Orel.

Only this time, the tank unit he led did not fight with Moder's T-54 tank group, but was sent to pursue the tank unit of Manstein's 4th Panzer Army Group.

"How is the battle going now, how are the German defensive positions being attacked by our tank army?"

As soon as I came to the front line,

Commander Rybalco immediately inquired about the additional combat staff officer, Vargas.

"Now the entire Orel salient is in the midst of fierce fighting, and our troops have to make a lot of tragic sacrifices every time they advance a defensive position of the Moral Army!"

"Because not only have the Germans adopted their famous tactics of elastic defense, but they are not going to hold an inch now, and they will suddenly retreat, and at a moment and place when we do not expect it, they will suddenly concentrate their excellent forces to strike back at us! And they also have a lot of high-performance tanks for infantry and tank cooperation! ”

"If it weren't for the fact that the German aviation forces have not made any sorties and counterattacked on a large scale recently, I am afraid that we would not have been able to defeat Manstein's Army Group South so easily and retreat one after another!"

Staff Officer Vargas hurriedly replied.

"Then can we annihilate the German 4th Panzer Army Group now?"

Commander Rybalko directly voiced his doubts.

"I can't answer that! But I want to say that now the Germans have deployed the 503rd Heavy Armored Battalion and two other tank battalions to the defensive positions in front of us, and have been intercepting our tank units here for more than two hours! ”

"And just an hour ago, our tank unit had a fierce battle with them, but as a result, our tank unit was destroyed by their 50 Tiger tanks and destroyed 150 tanks!"

After hearing this, staff officer Vargas replied with a solemn face on his forehead, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

“……”

Hearing this, Commander Rybalko was suddenly speechless with black lines on his head.

At the same time, he had to work very hard to restrain the anger in his heart, trying to calm his ups and downs of mood swings.

"Are you trying to me off at the rhythm? I was beaten so badly by the Germans that you didn't even inform me early in the morning? Let me adjust my tactics right away! ”

After finally controlling his emotions, Commander Rybalko said with a dark face of chagrin.

"I'd like to report back to you right away! Commander Rybalco! It's just that just now, the Germans have also sent the 505th Heavy Armored Battalion over to support the operation, and in addition, Moder's tank troops have also sent his tank troops and are rushing here to support! ”

"According to the report of our reconnaissance battalion, the number of tanks dispatched by Moder is no less than 200! And it's a new type of tank that I haven't seen before, and I heard that their combat performance is still very superior! ”

"Although there may not be a Tiger, and our Stalin 2 tank is powerful! But it will definitely not lose to our T-34 tank! ”

Staff Officer Vargas hurriedly explained.

"That's it! I don't care how many tanks the Germans have sent over now! I only need to know that our 3rd Guards Tank Army is the most powerful tank force, and that we will definitely not have less than 15 tank corps assembled at the Oryo landing field for operations, and there will be no less than 13 artillery divisions; And there are also a large number of independent tank units and infantry divisions that can be used to support us at any time! ”

"So this battle, with the support of our massive air force; I am very confident that the Goddess of Victory will be on our side, and we will achieve brilliant results! ”

Commander Rybalko replied confidently.

"Yes! I believe so, too! Commander Rybalco! ”

Staff Officer Vargas was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded in agreement.

They then put their tank units, together with the rest of the Guards Tank Corps, and launched a ferocious attack on the German 503rd and 505th Heavy Tank Battalions.

At the same time, the Soviet aviation units were also in line with the bombing and strafing of the German tanks they encountered.

Soon a fierce tank battle at the Orel landing field, and a defensive battle began again.
