Ever since he arrived in the Crimean Peninsula, Vasilevsky has been imagining in his mind the vision of his final death.

He had fantasized about the moment when he was heroic and righteous, and he also thought about the possible humble appearance of being killed by the enemy, and when the final time was getting closer and closer, he realized that his end was not the same as his original vision: people's hearts would be chaotic, and no one could afford to ignore it.

Above his head were three layers of heavy reinforced concrete fortifications, and the entire hill of Sevastopol had been hollowed out by Soviet laborers themselves, in which three floors of internal buildings were built.

At the bottom of the floor was the current headquarters of Vasilevsky, and beside him was the equally important Liangju and ammunition depot; One level above is a huge underground barracks where soldiers are stationed, large enough to accommodate more than a thousand heavily armed Red Army soldiers, as well as ammunition storage warehouses for small arms; Further up was the passage to the various branch batteries and the main pillbox, which were now almost destroyed by the shelling.

On the surface, in the destroyed trenches, there were Soviet soldiers who had lost much will to fight. They held defensive positions like ruins, trying to fight the Germans by all means.

Because there was still a part of the underpass, the more the Soviets retreated to the core fortifications, the easier it was to get more support.

Hidden underground tunnels can be used to transport ammunition without knowing it, and there is a large amount of ammunition hoarded in the entire Sevastopol fortress, enough for the defenders to squander for a while.

The fortress or fortress group in front of you can be regarded as the strongest defense system built in human history - there is no one!

In terms of the firepower configuration and defense level of the core position, it has comprehensively surpassed the Maginot Line in France, and it is not much better than any defense project built by humans.

To be able to fall with such a fortress, Vasilevsky felt that he had no regrets.

He persevered to the end like a true warrior, and then died a dignified death in the Great Fortress - a good place to be, and it made him feel that everything was good.

"Send a telegram to Stalingrad and tell Comrade Stalin that I have died here in battle, so please take care of him." Vasilevsky straightened his clothes and instructed his chief of staff.

After giving instructions to the chief of staff about the telegram, Vasilevsky sighed, and then removed his general's military cap from the wall and put it on the top of his head.

Like many Soviet generals who were temporarily promoted to marshal, Vasilevsky did not have the opportunity to wear his own marshal uniform.

He could only die in a dimly lit basement, wearing his own general's uniform, which has to be said to be a pity.

But think about it, among the marshals who died in front of him, from Rokossovsky to Gorshkov, none of them were able to put on decent marshal uniforms, so Vasilevsky did not feel how unlucky he was.

"Boom!" A shell exploded overhead in an underground bunker, seemingly far away, and it seemed to be right in his ears, and the sound of the shell exploding was heard, which was not strong in the office.

Because above the head of this office, there are dozens of meters of concrete and rooms. Unfortunately, Vasilevsky could still feel the vibration of the shells throughout the mountain.

He could still detect the magnitude of the exploding cannonball from the slight shaking of the table and chair.

"As soon as the Germans have occupied all the ground positions, you will come and inform me." Feeling the vibration under his feet, Vasilevsky looked at his chief of staff and said in a pleading tone.

"Comrade Marshal! I'll let you know as soon as possible! The chief of staff saluted and said with his chin held high.

"Phew!" A few doors away, suddenly a gunshot rang out. Vasilevsky knew who fired the shot, so he didn't speak.

A few minutes earlier, his comrade political commissar had just said goodbye to him and had expressed to him his desire to die generously.

Now that Comrade Political Commissar has proven his loyalty to the Soviet Union with practical actions, it will be the turn of Marshal Vasilevsky.

"Boom!" Another shell from German heavy artillery fell on the positions of the Soviet defenders, raising a huge cloud of black smoke. The tremors spread into the underground bunker, causing a plume of dust to fall from the roof.

"Another comrade has left us...... "The chief of staff squeezed out a wry smile and said to Vasilevsky.

"Sacrifice is a relief for each and every one of us." Vasilevsky straightened his military hat and said: "At least we can choose to die with dignity!" ”

……

The Luftwaffe had been suppressing its rival, the Soviet Air Force, on the Eastern Front, and the number and quality of fighters were almost superior to the latter.

As for the level of pilots, it was even more of an overwhelming advantage for the Luftwaffe. No matter what kind of mission it performed, the Luftwaffe was much more powerful than its counterpart, the Soviet Air Force.

Hartman's ace fighters are generally more relaxed, they only need to patrol the battlefield and shoot down all the enemy planes they encounter.

And the pilots who carried out the German ground attack mission were completely hard work compared to fighter pilots.

They often work overtime, flying planes to and from base to target. They dropped bombs on their targets' heads, poured out their ammunition, and returned.

These dive bomber pilots often faced Soviet ground artillery fire, and sometimes the Soviets even used rifles and machine guns to counter low-altitude German attack aircraft.

Often, Stuka or JU-88 bombers flew back to their bases with scars and bullet holes. Sometimes the bulletproof steel plate behind the pilot is even embedded with bullets of various types.

The pilots who carried out bombing missions were also the group with the greatest losses for the Luftwaffe. In the six months since the start of the war, the German army has lost more than 2,500 aircraft, two-thirds of which are bombers of various types.

Because of this, the bomber unit has the largest number of replenished pilots, and the highest proportion of pilots who perform ground bombing missions is also lost.

Even so, the Luftwaffe never refused a single ground attack mission, and as long as the army asked for it, the air force would always do everything possible to send aircraft to participate in the operation.

Now, they are once again at war, and the target of the attack is the last isolated city in the Crimea: Sevastopol!
