Chapter 1432: Retaking the Oil Fields
This is very different from history, where Germany was short of oil, and Hitler spent all day fantasizing about taking the Caucasus and taking the Baku oil fields.
In order to prevent Germany from taking the Baku oil field, the Soviet Union set up many obstacles on the road from Ukraine to the Caucasus, and used blood to block the German attack, and in the end the Germans did not get the Baku oil field.
At that time, both Turkey and Iran maintained so-called neutrality.
Now, both Turkey and Iran have become accomplices of Germany, and the Baku oil fields are simply fish to be slaughtered.
The base camp has long been aware of the risks here, in addition to forming a special army group to defend Baku, but also building a new second Baku in the back, even so, the current Baku oil field is still extremely important.
Now at a critical time, this Major General Huominko only knows how to report! When he woke up from his sleep and understood the situation before him, Stalin immediately gave the order.
"Tell Huo Minko to take out his subordinates, all the things that can move, and let him personally lead the team, and take back the oil field for me before dawn! Either he will come to Moscow alive after completing the mission, and I will award him the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, or he will die in the oil fields! ”
This idiot!
Now that the oil fields are occupied, they must have been made by the Iranians, and the Iranians crossed the Caspian Sea, how many troops can they have? How is it possible to be frightened and mobilize the Armenian army to come over? Didn't the Turks in the back rush over?
He must race against time to reclaim the oil fields! Even if you still fail in the end, you can set the oil field on fire so that you don't leave the oil field intact to the enemy!
It's a death order!
Only that idiot of Huominko, I'm afraid it's not enough, you have to quickly move the troops over! How fast? The Airborne Forces, of course, are the best!
The order was quickly passed down, and Stalin was no longer sleepy, he was in his pajamas, stamping his steps around his room, looking at the map on the wall from time to time, in short, he felt that it was not so simple, the Germans might have done something else!
Is the situation going to continue to deteriorate? No matter how critical the situation is, I will not give up, and no country has ever been able to conquer Russia and conquer the Soviet Union!
Thinking of this, Stalin once again became stronger-willed.
Inside the city of Baku, the headquarters of the 58th Army.
Major General Huominko's eyes were red, he had received the latest order, he had already realized how critical his situation was, and if he did not carry out Stalin's orders, then what awaited him was the same end as Pavlov!
"Gather all the people for me, including the police!" Major General Hominko said: "All logistics agencies, even guys, must pick up rifles for me!" Let's take back the oil fields! By the way, and college students, haven't they been clamoring to go to war? Give them this chance! ”
For any unit, there is a certain number of logistics troops, transporting baggage, supplies, and signal troops under various officers.
Now, there is no need to divide the arms, everyone, all of them are issued weapons, and they have to go to the battlefield!
In this way, Major General Huominko suddenly found that he could still gather thousands of people under his command!
"General, are we going to stay here?" An adjutant asked.
After all, this is his headquarters, and he is also responsible for the command in the direction of Armenia, and if everyone in the command is gone, it will be completely out of contact with the rest of the troops.
"No, if we don't take the oil fields back, we'll all die." Major General Huominko said: "Retaking the oil field is our first task, let's go, go to the oil field!" ”
After saying that, he put the pistol in his waist and picked up a Bobosha submachine gun, this gun was prepared for his subordinates, whoever did not rush hard, he would rush out!
Major General Huominko strode out, he didn't know, just a few minutes after he left his headquarters with everyone, the phone inside the headquarters rang non-stop, and the intelligence from the border area wanted to be sent, but no one answered!
In the vigorous purges of the previous years, it was entirely a stage for sloppy people who flew up and down to report the misdeeds of others in order to gain their own promotion.
Most of these people have entered the agency, and now, there are many such people under Huo Mingke.
Kostenov held the rifle that had just been issued to his hand, his hands were a little trembling, he tried to hold his glasses, and he never dreamed that he was going to battle!
He only fired a few shots a year during routine training, and he was one of those people who couldn't get a bullet out of the target, and he didn't know how to fight at all, but now, he had to go to war.
He looked around and saw that there were many unfamiliar faces in the same car, especially the students of Baku Oil University, who had just picked up their guns, but they were still excited.
Baku is the oil city, and most of the people who go to the oil university here are the children of oil workers, and after they finish college, many of them will continue to work in the oil city, for them, this is their hometown, and they are fighting to defend their hometown!
There is no shortage of vehicles in the oil city, and there is no shortage of vehicles in the logistics organs, and the armed forces of thousands of people are riding in cars in the direction of the oil fields.
Overhead, the stars were shining, and there were still two or three hours before dawn.
"Boom, boom!" Just when there were still more than a dozen kilometers from the oil field, suddenly, a terrible explosion sounded on the road, and with the sound, several cars in front of them exploded violently.
The night sky was lit up, cars were burning, countless flying corpses, and the smell that filled the air instantly brought everyone to the battlefield.
There are already mines planted on the road!
Major General Hominko was sitting in the middle of the car, and when he heard the explosion in front of him, he immediately leaned out and shouted: "Get off the road and go from below!" ”
After years of development, Baku has built a good road, and now, the road must not be walked, these Iranians are really fast, and they actually ran here to lay mines!
They must be here to delay their own time, and they can't let them succeed!
"Tom, tom!" At this moment, suddenly, on the dark fields on both sides, a terrible cannon sound sounded!
One by one, 20-millimeter shells were fired towards the convoy, and in an instant, one car after another was blown up!
It is not easy to protect the oil fields, because the area of the oil fields is too large, and the Iranian landing force will not be able to establish an effective defense line at all.
In order to prevent accidents, Reinhardt came up with a plan, simply gather all the wheeled infantry fighting vehicles and drive them to the surrounding roads leading to the oil field, and intercept the troops on the road!
Originally, there were not many people, but they dared to divide their troops to create an ambush! Reinhardt couldn't have been bold, and now, it's working!
