Chapter 615: Prepare for Battle

October 29, Eastern Front.

It wasn't too cold, but the sky was already starting to rain and snow, and the ground was soon getting muddy at night.

There was a cold wind and a light rain all day.

In the German front-line units, subordinate to the front-line positions of the 9th Army Group under the command of Field Marshal Modell.

An infantry battalion is being stationed, and the commander of this battalion is called Koprek.

In this gradually cold weather, he and his lieutenant were patrolling the front line.

"The Soviets have been quiet lately! I don't know if they're scared by us, or if they're planning a battle plan in some way! Not even a single attack has occurred! ”

On the way to the tour, Adjutant Günter reported while snorting hot.

"How long has this been the case, I think I've heard you say it a few times!"

Battalion Commander Koplake asked with a solemn face.

"Only from the last time our Marshal Moder and Manstein's troops in the battle of the Dnieper River, the Soviet Army's Southwestern Front Army was severely damaged, and now it has been almost half a month, and the Soviet army is simply dead silent, as if there is no one there, if it weren't for the casualties of the reconnaissance troops we sent over, I'm afraid we really think that there is no man's land!"

Adjutant Günter thought about it and said a little worriedly.

"Hmmm! I have to report this matter to Marshal Moder, otherwise there will be a change, and such a quiet move is really not quite like the combat style of the Soviet army! ”

"It seems that the Soviets may want to launch a large-scale counterattack against us again, and I really hope they don't come and attack us suddenly at Christmas!"

"I haven't had a good Christmas for a long time, I really hope I can have a safe Christmas this year, I wonder how my family is doing in the country? I've heard that Hamburg was so badly bombed by the British and American air forces in July that it was about to be half in ruins! I'm so worried! If it weren't for my wife, Margaery, who wrote to me last week to say that she was safe, I would have asked to return to China once to visit my family! ”

"My application will not be approved 100%, but I will go back and see my family!"

Hearing this, the battalion commander Koprek said a little sadly.

"Me too! Sir! It's been 2 years since I left Hamburg! ”

Adjutant Jingte also sighed softly.

"I don't know how long this damn war will last!"

After hearing this, the battalion commander Koprek sighed even more deeply.

"God knows! Maybe our head will annihilate all the Soviet troops! But I think it will be at least after the capture of Stalingrad and Moscow by the Soviet army! ”

Adjutant Günter suddenly looked up at the gray sky, letting those cold and heart-fleeing snowflakes and light rain fall on him, his eyes a little helpless and confused.

"Yes! Maybe only God knows how long this war on the Eastern Front will last! ”

Seeing this, the battalion commander Koprek also looked up at the sky, muttering to himself with great nostalgia for his family.

"Hey! Is that a reconnaissance aircraft of the Soviet army? ”

At this moment, the battalion commander Koprek suddenly stared at him and exclaimed.

"Yes! Sir! It is the Yak-2 (BB-22) bomber of the Soviet Army, and the Yak-4 reconnaissance/bomber, a total of 8 of them, and 3 Il-2 attack aircraft! ”

Adjutant Jingte also panicked.

"Quick! Get ready for battle! ”

"Let's have anti-aircraft guns, and anti-aircraft machine guns at once! It is absolutely impossible to be successfully attacked by these Soviet aircraft! ”

As soon as the words fell, the battalion commander Koplay turned pale and hurriedly gave a combat order to Adjutant Jingte.
