"Boom! "Boom!" When the main guns of the battleship Tirbitz joined the revelry, Leningrad could almost be described as a ruin.

The previous German advance made the German minesweeping operations in the Gulf of Finland very hidden.

This is also the main reason why the Soviets did not find out until the German battleships appeared in the open sea.

Who would have thought that the German Navy, which had only two battleships before the war, would now be able to concentrate such a large force in the Baltic as four battleships?

A loud explosion echoed in the sky, and another building slowly collapsed after the explosion, and smoke billowed and filled the surrounding streets.

After more than an hour, baptized by more than 200 heavy shells, Leningrad finally returned to tranquility.

From time to time, there was still the sound of explosions in the city, and it was no longer the sound of shells exploding.

The building was burning, and the sound of something erupting was enough to make people shudder.

People came out of the underground bunkers and some corners, looking at their hometown beyond recognition, and the cries and sighs of despair beat at everyone's heart.

The man with the handbag looked at his family's building and leaned against the side of the road as he gasped and watched the crying men and women run past him.

"Help! Someone is buried under the rubble! A woman wrapped in a scarf ran up to her, pointed to the smoking ruins in the distance, and prayed aloud.

"I ...... I had to go home and see my son and daughter, and then I went over to help, really! The man broke free from the woman's pull and ran to his apartment.

Pushing open the door, he saw his wife and children, who had apparently left. He went to the place where the money was hidden, but he didn't find the banknotes.

It seemed that his wife had already taken her son and daughter into hiding, so he breathed a sigh of relief, threw the briefcase at the door, found a pen and paper and wrote down where he was going, and left it on the table.

Then he went out and locked the door, and walked down the stairs to the ruins in the distance. He promised to help, so naturally he wanted to fulfill his promise.

"The shelling stopped? The shelling stopped? On the street, there was also a delirious man who grabbed a passing pedestrian and asked the question over and over again.

Some of the soldiers were running around with their weapons, not knowing what they were doing. Because the shelling did stop, the rescue work began immediately.

It was getting dark, and in this case, the Germans were afraid that something would go wrong with their battleship, so they retreated from the battle.

After all, although the battleship received the British, it was also an important weapon and equipment of the navy, and it could not be easily lost.

In this case, the German navy was 10,000 times more conservative than the air force and the army. Because they are really afraid of living a poor life, they really don't want to go back to the pre-liberation period.

After dark, the protection of the air force would be lost, and it would be easy for the Soviets to take advantage of the loopholes, so they simply retreated and left, ending the attack.

"Maybe they've been driven away...... one woman guessed, looking at the city on fire and smoke in the distance.

"yes, maybe they left on their own." After the man who passed by said this, he hurried by.

He walked to the rubble and saw people who had lost their homes and were clumsy digging up the bodies of their friends and relatives from under the rubble.

"Do you have the tools? Do you have a tool? Go find a shovel or something! Shovels and stuff like that will do! The man shouted loudly as he helped move the stones.

Two soldiers came over and began to help with their weapons on their backs: "Don't count on shovels, all the stocks have been transferred to the front line." ”

Not only shovels, but in fact most of the tools were either rushed back to Moscow at this time, or transported to the front to be used.

After all, the front line has to dig up a defensive line, and it is understandable to use a lot of tools. As for whether it is lost or used more after all, no one knows.

A group of people are busy moving stones, and the efficiency is quite low. By the time they saw the bodies beneath the rubble, the blood had dried up.

The relatives of the deceased knelt beside the corpse and wept, and the rest continued to work around: there were still corpses waiting to be found, and they had to find them as much as they could.

It's not the front line yet, so the bodies have to be found and handed over to their loved ones to dispose of. By the time it becomes the front line, no one will have the heart to rummage through the corpses.

At that time, there were corpses everywhere, and they couldn't be dealt with at all. The living are not as good as the dead, and they will not have the heart to waste their strength on the corpse.

"Civilians should be allowed to get out of here...... The Germans will come back! When the shelling returns, we will lose even more people. The man looked at the soldier carrying the stone beside him, and spoke as if he had found a savior.

"No one is innocent, and there are no civilians left." The soldier glanced at the man and said helplessly.

Another soldier dropped the stone in his hand and, after sighing, spoke: "Stalin gave the order that everyone should take up arms and fight to the end for their homeland." ”

"Women and children......" After hearing the news, the man felt someone choke his neck. He had difficulty breathing, but he still wanted to find a way to stay alive for his family.

"Women and children are all in range, everyone has to fight, there are no innocent people." The soldier shook his head, not daring to look at the man's desperate eyes.

Stalin's orders? It's Stalin's order again - what's wrong with this country, is it necessary to let the children and women be buried in order to be able to continue?

The generals did not know how to win the war, and the leaders of the country hid in Moscow and did not even have the courage to come out and take a look.

Even so, they had the face to stand up and give such an order to order women and children to go to the front to die.

The man dropped the brick in his hand, found a larger piece of wall, and sat on it: "Children are innocent, women should not go to the battlefield." ”

"Marshal Voroshilov has just given an order that women, children, and old people should go to the front, not to participate in battles, but to dig trenches and help repair fortifications." Seeing the man's desperate appearance, a soldier enlightened him.

Another soldier also comforted: "They don't have to go to war, and we don't have enough weapons to arm these civilians." ”

Hearing the good news in the misfortune, the man came back to his senses a little. He still sat on the ruins, a worried look on his face.
