In fact, on the Eastern Front, which had fallen silent, the fighting between the Germans and the Soviets was far from stopping, at least in the east of Ukraine, when the German Army Group D attacked Rostov-on-Don.

It's really sad to say that this was once the hiding place of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet, but now it has become a bloody battlefield.

And the highest vantage point in the city is where the city hall is located. Now in that position, the German infantry was engaged in a frantic battle with their old rivals, the Soviets.

Behind a window on the third floor of the city hall building, a Soviet Maxim heavy machine gun was firing desperately.

Being able to carry such a heavy weapon to that position was a small surprise on the part of the Soviets.

The Germans were pinned down by this heavy machine gun and lost quite a few people near the streets. Because of the thick walls of the town hall, the Germans did not have a good way to attack for a while.

These Soviet soldiers knew in their hearts that as long as their machine guns fired, they would be quickly suppressed by all kinds of German weapons.

So all they could do was open fire suddenly, and then pour as much ammunition as possible in the shortest possible time to inflict as much damage as possible on the Germans.

After all, the Germans were able to suppress their firepower, which was so much that it made the Soviets a little desperate.

In response to this Soviet machine gun fire point, German soldiers could directly take out the opponent with an iron-fisted anti-tank bazooka, or they could suppress fire with the MG42 machine gun, which had a faster rate of fire.

Even the Germans could use more and more snipers attached to the company and platoon levels to take out the Soviets' machine-gun shooters to stop the other side from continuing to fire.

With so many means, the possibility of the Soviet machine-gun fire point surviving after firing is really very small, so it takes great courage for the Soviet army's heavy machine guns to fire.

Just now, before the Soviet heavy machine guns could fire, at least five German infantrymen near the gate of the town hall were knocked to the ground by the sudden attack of Soviet bullets.

In the face of this sudden attack, the attacking German infantry was slightly confused for a few seconds, and then they stopped their advance and began to wait patiently.

"Over there! Bazooka! Destroy enemy machine-gun fire points on the third floor! The German platoon commander in charge of the unit pointed to the window in the distance that was constantly spraying tongues of fire, and loudly ordered his men to take measures.

Under the roar of the platoon commander, a German anti-tank fighter quickly approached the attacking ranks. He was followed by a secondary shooter with ammunition.

They have always been in the core position of the entire infantry platoon, which is well protected by everyone, and it is also convenient for the entire infantry platoon to quickly enter the attack state when it encounters a situation.

The two men ran one after the other to the designated position, then raised their heads and roughly aimed their bazookas at the window that was spitting tongues of fire.

Once the loader was ready, he slipped the rocket into the canister, and then he stepped aside to dodge the tail flame that would result from the launch for a while.

Bazookas of this era could not be fired in a room, otherwise the shooter would be very dangerous.

Seeing that the two men were ready to fire, the German platoon commander shouted: "Fire!" Cover! Hit me hard! ”

The surrounding German soldiers heard the order and immediately began a frantic counterattack, bullets shuttled back and forth between the positions of the two sides, and the bullets fired by the Germans crackled on the outer wall of the city hall.

Because the Germans had more automatic weapons, at this moment, the Soviet machine-gun positions were completely unable to suppress all the counterattack firepower.

Those bullets came from the G-43 rifle, from the STG-44 assault rifle...... In every corner of all directions, the Soviet shooters simply could not find the concentration point of the opponent's counterattack fire.

At this moment, the superiority of the Soviet machine-gun position was lost, and the defects of obvious position and easy aiming were exposed.

Although it was only for a short moment, it was absolutely enough for the German anti-tank rocket shooters.

The shooter, who had roughly aimed at the window, leaned over, leaned out, reached out of his deadly bazooka, aimed it at his target, and fired a massive rocket at his own target.

A puff of white smoke quickly flew towards his target, and the rocket flew into the window on the third floor of the city hall with incredible accuracy.

The next second. In the window on the third floor of the main building of the city hall, an exploding flame tumbled out.

One of the Soviet soldiers inside was torn by the air wave set off by the explosion, rolled over from the window, and fell straight down, and this firepower point was completely destroyed.

"Rush! For the Führer! As the explosion sounded, all the nearby German commanders shouted at their troops to move on.

One by one, the German soldiers jumped out of the ruins where they were hiding and rushed to the other end of the wide street.

"Keep firing! Keep firing! The Germans rushed over! The disgraced Soviet commander was also in his hiding bunker, shouting bravely.

The Soviet soldiers beside him picked up their Mosin Nagant rifles and fired desperately, trying to prevent the German soldiers from approaching their positions.

Before the new Soviet firing points could begin to play a role, the attacking German machine gun group had already set up its own MG42 machine guns in suitable flank positions.

The Führer's saw was clearly extremely powerful, and as soon as it was fired, the Soviet positions were overwhelmed by a dense barrage of bullets.

Now it was the turn of the Germans' machine guns to start firing, and countless bullets flew to the Soviet positions, sending a cloud of white smoke there.

A stray bullet hit a charging German soldier, who fell to the ground in agony and was pulled away from the battlefield by his companions.

The remaining German troops showed no intention of stopping, and they continued to move forward, rushing outside the walls of the municipal building, ready for a hand-to-hand fight.

"Grenades!" A German soldier shouted a reminder to his companion, and a loud explosion toppled several German soldiers leaning against the wall.

Everyone's ears were ringing, and they looked up to see that the second grenade had also been dropped and rolled at their feet.

"Boom!" The second explosion sounded outside the building of the town hall, and one of the infantry squads of the German attack suffered heavy losses, covered in blood and severed limbs, like hell.

The battle for Rostov had only begun for two days, and it was here that the two sides were fighting. Tens of thousands of Soviet troops fought to the death and fought frantically with the attacking German army.
