Chapter 560: Difficulty

Of course, this does not mean that the 1st Infantry Division jumped out of its hideout and launched an attack.

"There are two difficulties in attacking!" After climbing from the front line to the rear, Colonel Slane flashed a flashlight under the poncho and said to the map: "We are five hundred meters from the enemy, and judging by the reconnaissance, this section of the road is as muddy as we have come into contact with before!" ”

Bazel and several other officers couldn't help but feel cold on their faces, they knew what it meant, they couldn't run fast on the muddy road at all, let alone run, it was difficult to walk.

The result is ...... It may give the enemy plenty of time to prepare and organize his defenses.

"Another difficulty!" Colonel Slein said: "The enemy may scatter and flee after being attacked, which is not conducive to our attack on the power station!" ”

This concern is also necessary, knowing that this is in the dark and the enemy has much more troops than the German army, and the most feared thing in this case is that the enemy is scattered, because it will make the German army confused, not knowing which enemy to chase and not knowing where the enemy is, and then they will fall into confusion.

"The first difficulty!" "We can send a commando team to lurk in front of the enemy's position and launch a surprise attack!" said Bazel. ”

The officers nodded their heads.

This is a common offensive method used by the German army, and the assault team can do without many people, for example, a company sometimes has only one or two platoons, so many people obviously cannot destroy the enemy, but their role is not small...... It can throw the enemy into confusion at the first time and cannot organize a defense, and when the follow-up troops follow, the enemy will have no power to fight back.

But the second difficulty is still unsolvable, and there is still a possibility that this battle will turn out to be a mixed battle.

After thinking about it, Qin Chuan said: "We can attack from three sides and drive the Soviets along the road in the direction of the power station!" ”

"I don't think that's appropriate!" Bazel objected: "It is impossible to identify in the dark, and it is easy to be injured by mistake when the troops are divided into several directions!" ”

Qin Chuan said: "We can tell from the gunshots, MP43 gunshots are easy to identify!" ”

The officers were stunned for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

There is no doubt about this, the MP43 uses an intermediate power bullet, because the charge is less than that of a rifle and more than a submachine gun, so the gunfire is also between a rifle and a submachine gun, and the most special thing is that it can be fired continuously, so it is easy to distinguish.

"Great idea!" Colonel Slein ordered: "As the captain said, divide into three parts, and listen to the gunshots!" ”

The battle plan was quickly executed, and the soldiers of the infantry regiment maneuvered to combat positions under the cover of darkness...... Two companies and two assault platoons in each direction, with one more company placed in the main force in the center because of the large attack surface, and the remaining two companies were used as reserves.

The quality of command of the German officers can also be seen from this.

If ordinary troops encounter such a situation, it is difficult to quickly organize and enter the battle like this, because there must be a unified command in each direction, and under normal circumstances, a battalion is put into each direction, so it is natural that there is a battalion commander to command, and the soldiers also know who to report to if something happens to the order they should hear.

But as now, with insufficient troops and commanders, and in the dark, the troops were randomly grouped in companies and platoons in all directions in an orderly manner, perhaps only the Germans could do it.

As Colonel Slane gave the order, the assault teams in all directions began to crawl forward.

Crawling through the mud is not an easy task, as it is often weak and rattles, especially since the soldiers have to carry their guns in their hands and move them forward on their elbows...... This is because of the fear that MP43 will get into the sewage and cause it to get stuck.

However, the German soldiers had been trained during training, and on the other hand, they were well camouflaged in the mud, and several times the Soviet sentries noticed something and shone it in the dark with a flashlight, but they didn't find anything abnormal.

Finally, a code signal came from the walkie-talkie that all directions were ready, and Colonel Slain looked at his watch and gave the order to the mortar behind him: "Fire!" ”

"Tom tom!" With a few sounds, more than a dozen mortars fired a volley of shells in the direction of the Soviet troops.

The flames exploded in the Soviet position, several tents and Soviet troops were blown into the air in an instant, and the Soviet sentries did not realize what was happening, and subconsciously turned their heads to look at the firelight behind them in a daze...... From this, it can also be seen that these Soviet troops in front of them are not experienced veterans, otherwise they should have sensed the danger at the first time and lay down.

It took a while for these Soviet sentries to realize the problem, and they turned to look back at the dark void with terrifying eyes...... But it was too late, and after a few gunshots, the Soviet sentries were knocked to the ground, and then the German commandos got up from the ground and raised their guns in a kneeling position to shoot at the Soviet soldiers who had scrambled out of their tents.

At the same time, the main German forces also rushed towards the Soviet camp with a shout.

A few flares rose into the air, illuminating the panicked faces of the Soviet camp in an instant, and they hurriedly raised their guns to return fire, but before they could fire a few bullets, they were knocked to the ground by a bullet fired from the darkness...... The MP43's high rate of fire and much greater lethality than submachine guns were well used at this time, and it was found that they could not only comprehensively suppress the Soviet Bobosha submachine guns, but even if they cooperated with each other, two MP43s could easily suppress the enemy's machine guns by firing in turn.

As a result, the energy that burst out at the moment of the attack was almost unimaginable, at least in this era, there was no force with such powerful firepower.

Rows of Soviet soldiers fell screaming, and many collapsed in pools of blood before they even could react to what was happening...... In fact, even the Germans themselves were not mentally prepared for this.

Although they knew that the MP43 was an excellent rifle before, they still had in their minds the image of the previous bolt rifle attack, after all, they had been fighting with the bolt rifle for some days, which had limited their imagination.

But now, as soon as the fight is raised, I feel the joy of rows of bullets flying out of the rifles and heading straight for the enemy, and I feel the fragility of the enemy's ranks like a plate of scattered sand, looking at the helplessness and horror in their eyes...... They suddenly found that the battle seemed to be light.

The consequence of this was that the drive that had been planned before was almost empty words, because the Soviets had no time to escape, and the muddy roads also limited their escape speed, so groups of Soviets struggled, screamed, and cried in the camp in a panic.

But in the end, it was still impossible to get rid of the fate of annihilation, and only a few hundred movements fled in a hurry to the direction of Sevastopol.
