Chapter 1613: The Great Kremlin
"Bump it over!" When he saw the brick-red palace walls outside, Hanston shouted loudly.
With his command, Schmidt, the driver in front, stepped on the accelerator, and the powerful current was added to the electric motor in the tail, which was converted into a powerful torque, driving the tank to rumble forward, and the gun commander Karpanette stepped on the pedal under his feet to turn the turret backwards to prevent it from hitting his own tank gun.
"Boom!" When the heavy hull of the rat tank hit the Kremlin wall, the whole body shuddered, and then a crack appeared in the wall, and one brick fell off the wall, and then the second, and then the third, until the whole wall collapsed. The Rat tank has always been so powerful.
The tracks were crushed against the broken bricks, and the German rat tanks finally moved into the Kremlin.
The Kremlin is a large complex of palaces, including Lenin's Mausoleum, 20 towers, the Church of the Assumption, the Church of the Angels, the Ivan the Great Bell Tower, the Teremnoy Palace, the Grand Kremlin, the Armoury, the Great Hall, the Ancient Arsenal, the USSR Council of Ministers, the Office of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the Troitsk Bridge, and many others.
The Kremlin's architectural form is a mix of different architectural styles such as Byzantine, Russian, Baroque, Greek, and Roman. There was once a Russian proverb that described the majestic and majestic Kremlin as follows: "On the land of Moscow, only the Kremlin is towering, and on the Kremlin, only the sky is far away." ”
Here was the symbol of the power of the Soviets, and now it was being ravaged by German tank forces.
After the rat tank moved past, the infantry behind also jumped away from the broken wall and entered the interior.
Originally, the entire building of the Kremlin was glittering with gold, especially the roof, which was definitely the most beautiful scenery.
But now, when the war began, in order to guard against the aerial bombardment in which Germany had an advantage, the Kremlin carried out camouflage, and the main measures were to eliminate the glitter of the golden dome of the churches in the palace with the help of paint and powder, and to lay all kinds of simulacrums in the palace and nearby squares to confuse the enemy.
For example, the red star on the tower and the cross on the church in the Kremlin are covered, and the tower as a whole and the dome of the church are painted black and covered with sacks.
After all, the roofs of buildings in Moscow are mainly red and maroon, while many of the roofs of the Kremlin are green and look conspicuous.
At the same time, from the Borowitz gate to the Savior Tower, sand was sprinkled and an avenue was laid out, and the pilots looked in the air like an ordinary road.
Now, when Hans's tank came in, he realized that this place, as the heart of the Soviets, had changed dramatically, but it was from the sky, and now from the ground, it can still be seen at a glance.
March to the Great Kremlin!
The tank rumbled and Hans could no longer contain his excitement, opened the hatch of the tank, and got out of it.
"Hans, danger." The gunner on the side couldn't help shouting, but Hans didn't care: "Karpanette, take out our flag!" ”
The interior of the Rat tank was quite spacious, so inside the tank, they also prepared a bright swastika flag in advance, which guided the German army throughout Europe.
Ahead, already the Grand Kremlin.
It is one of the main buildings in the Kremlin, quite conspicuous, with three rows of high windows on the side facing the Moscow River, which was built on the site of the old palace in 1839~1849, and is formed by the connection of the old Andreevsky Hall and the Aleksandrovsky Hall.
The interior of the Grand Kremlin is rectangular in shape, with 700 rooms with a total area of 20,000 square meters surrounded by terraces. In the past, the first floor was all the Tsar's private palace rooms, except for the administrative offices, and the white wide staircase led to the halls on the second floor, where there were the Georgiev, Vladimir and Catherine halls, and in the past, there was the Andreyev Hall, which was the place where the Tsar received his envoys.
And now, the double-headed eagle on the Kremlin watchtower, which symbolized the authority of the tsars for centuries, has been removed and replaced by the emblem of the new regime - five red five-pointed stars.
At the same time, the Grand Kremlin was the main office of the Soviet government and the place where the Central Committee of the CPSU and social groups held meetings.
Moscow is the heart of the Soviet Union, the Kremlin is the heart of Moscow, and the Greater Kremlin is the heart of the Kremlin.
The three-story palace, which looked indistinguishable from other buildings on the outside, appeared before Hans's eyes.
"Stop!"
With Hans's shout, the huge mouse tank stopped, and Hans quickly jumped off the tank, and at this time, the infantry behind was already swarmed up.
In order to avoid unnecessary deaths, leaving a guard force anywhere in the city under the condition that Germany could bulldoze Moscow could only be a worthless death.
Therefore, when Stalin fell into a coma, Zhukov ordered everyone in the city to leave, and that kind of carving insect trick to free himself from the blow of the Germans was really child's play.
But Zhukov did not expect that Moscow would eventually be retained, and the troops outside the city had all been burned out and all were cremated.
At almost no cost to the German army, they had arrived in Moscow, the place that represented the supreme power of the Soviets.
"Raise our flag!" Hans shouted as he watched as the other warrior raised his fire axe and split the lock on the gate before kicking it open.
In the center of the Grand Kremlin is an attic decorated with various patterns, with a copper dome rising 13 meters above the main building, and a flagpole with a national flag raised on holidays.
Now, the copper roof has turned brown and lost its former luster, but on the flagpole of the roof, there is a flag with a bright sickle and hammer, which is fluttering fiercely.
All Hans had to do was to raise his own flag, and on this Soviet office building, raise the German flag!
Hans was not alone, but the large group of German infantry was extremely excited at this time, and this would be a moment of great historical significance.
At this time, they didn't know that there were more than a dozen people in this building, waiting nervously for the final moment to come.
Fight for the Soviets until the last moment! Let their young lives burn here!
