Chapter 135: The Soviet artillery covers the counterattack begins

The advance observers of the Soviet artillery crouched next to their walkie-talkies, calling out to the various artillery batteries and artillery regiments with a somewhat nervous expression; Teleport the new coordinates of the German firing points they had observed.

"Barrage, shooting, azimuth ......"

At the same time, the artillerymen were constantly sending other operational instructions; So that their artillery team can accurately hit the German firing points.

At this time, General Rokossovsky, commander of the Central Front of the Soviet Army, and Bukalov, commander of the 13th Soviet Army, were also outside the headquarters along the front line, using military binoculars to observe the combat situation on the front line.

"Comrade Bukalov! What do you think these Germans are up to? They have been fighting with the outside for most of the month, but in the past two days, they have been like crazy, constantly launching more and more fierce attacks on the outside, especially their tank army, which is even more ferocious, and has also dispatched new types that have not been encountered outside before, what are the names of those tanks? Did the spies outside find out? ”

After looking at it for a long time, General Rokossovsky put down his binoculars, turned to Commander Bukalov beside him, and said.

"It's called the Leopard medium tank, and the Tiger heavy tank!"

Commander Bukarov replied briefly.

"We must find a way to deal with the new tank groups of these fascist forces, because they are a big killer for our tanks! Not only are they thickly armored, they are not easily penetrated by anti-tank shells, but they are also capable of artillery fire on enemy tanks from a distance of 2,000 meters, and they are so powerful that our T-34 tanks are no match for them at all! ”

General Rokossovsky expressed his opinion on the German Tigers and Leopards.

"I feel the same way, Comrade Rokossovsky! However, I also observed that the disadvantages of the enemy's Tiger tank were its slow speed, its maneuverability was not as fast as that of our T-34 tank, and it also had the weakness of flammability. ”

Commander Bukarov also said his opinion.

"I agree with you, so we should take advantage of the fast maneuverability of our T-34 tank group, engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and attack ourselves from the front, or surprise from the side, so as to destroy the enemy's Tiger and Leopard tanks!"

General Rokossovsky nodded in agreement.

Then he turned his gaze to the tanks that were already on the battlefield, bombed, smoked, or on fire, and exploded.

These tanks, both German and Soviet, were destroyed by tanks, anti-tank guns, or anti-tank mines in the previous battles, and scrapped on the battlefield.

Seeing this, Commander Bukarov did not reply immediately, and he also stared down at the smoke in front of him from a distance with a more complicated and sad gaze; The wreckage of tanks on the battlefield under blazing artillery fire, and the corpses of all kinds of dead soldiers.

"How long will this damn war end?"

After a long time, he sighed helplessly.

"So what about our current war damage report? Especially the casualty ratio of your 13th Army? ”

At this moment, Senior General Rokossovsky suddenly turned his head to Commander Bukarov and asked.

"The situation is not very promising! In the brutal battle of the past two days, our 13th Army has suffered more than 8,000 casualties, and more than 100 tanks have been damaged, more than 80 assault combat vehicles, and a lot of various weapons and equipment! ”

Commander Bukarov reported embarrassedly.

"Hmmm! Do not be discouraged, Comrade Bukarov! War is all about killing and wounding, and we've already killed a lot of good soldiers, all of our greatest warriors! We can't let their blood go in vain! It's all these damned fascists, without their aggression we wouldn't have killed and wounded so many people and soldiers! ”

General Rokossovsky was silent for a moment, then encouraged in a gentle tone.

"I will! Comrade Rokossovsky! And I still have more than 110,000 brave soldiers and more than 200 tanks on hand! So I'm going to give these hateful Germans a great bleed! I want them to pay a heavy price, so that the civilians they killed and the valiant soldiers can be avenged by their blood and hatred! ”

Commander Bukarov's face suddenly turned gloomy, and in a gritted tone, he stared at the German troops who were launching an offensive battle on the battlefield in the distance, and said coldly.

"Good! Such a good general of our great Union of Soviet Republics, our Comrade Stalin will surely like you very much! Behave well, and I will truthfully report to Comrade Stalin the great achievements of you and your troops! You're sure to be rewarded handsomely! ”

Hearing this, General Rokossovsky happily appreciated.

"Thank you for the appreciation! Comrade Rokossovsky! ”

Hearing the other party's appreciation, Commander Bukarov also quickly hid his cold expression and responded with a bright smile.

"Alright! So let's take a look at our great counterattack! Wait for those damned fascist Germans to taste the power of the artillery cover of our great Union of Soviet Republics! ”

In this regard, General Rokossovsky said happily.

"I'm waiting to see what happens! Comrade Rokossovsky! ”

Commander Bukarov also smiled and hurriedly agreed.

Soon after, the two of them stood silently, using their binoculars and began to watch the battlefield in the distance.

And at the moment of their actions, the heavy artillery fire of the Soviet army began immediately.

When their pointers reached the moment of attack, in an instant, the fire of more than 8,000 artillery, mortars, and Katyusha rockets illuminated the entire land, which was about to be shrouded in dusk, as bright as day; At the same time, it was constantly accompanied by those earth-shaking battle situations, which were more terrifying than the sound of thunder and earthquakes, and immediately appeared in all corners of the entire battlefield.

In the face of such ferocious artillery fire of the Soviet army, after a short 40-minute artillery bombardment, the front positions of the German army; and all the reinforced concrete fortifications above the first line of defensive positions in the rear, as well as all sorts of machine-gun bunkers; and trench bunkers and firing points, all bombarded beyond recognition by the huge siege howitzers of the Soviet army; Dead and wounded everywhere, and the sound of miserable howls resounded in the sky......

There are even quite a few tanks, which have been bombed one by one with black smoke or blazing fire......
