Chapter 345: The Fall

"Da Da Da!" On the position of the Russian army, two Maxim heavy machine guns fired frantically at a German tank. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Dense bullets, like a torrential rain, hit the armor of the tank, making a clanging sound and sparks flying.

However, the tank continued to move forward as if it had not been affected at all, despite the firepower of the Russian army.

"Oh God! How can our enemies be so strong? Are they all devils? "A Russian soldier with a frightened face.

In their eyes, the one who can't even deal with a heavy machine gun may be the devil.

"Haha! These Russians, they are all fools? We also fought with them several times, why did they use machine guns against our tanks every time? Could it be that they thought that with the bullets of the machine gun, they could penetrate the armor of the tank? The tank commander sneered.

"Who knows? Anyway, our order is to kill these Russians. It doesn't matter if you kill them with shells, or with bullets, or run them over with tracks, it's the same. As long as these Russians are dead, we have completed our mission. The driver said indifferently.

Indeed, for these battle-hardened armored soldiers, their tanks have been replaced several times, which has also made them completely numb to this war. Their weapon has become a weapon of killing. No enemy can withstand the attack of their tanks. At the same time, the tank will also give them the best protection, so that when they go to the battlefield, they can just kill people.

"That's right, our mission is to kill these Russians!" The gunner also said.

"Then get to work! Guys! Heavy machine guns aimed at the Russians. Although we are not afraid, the infantry behind us is afraid. Finish them out and provide protection for the infantry! The commander commanded.

"Yes, sir!"

The turret of the tank began to rotate, and soon it was aimed at the heavy machine guns of the Russian army. When the Russian machine gunners found out that the enemy's tank turret was aimed at them, they were terrified. I tried to escape, but before I could take two steps, an explosion sounded.

"Boom!"

The heavy machine gun of the Russian army was blown into a pile of parts. The Russian machine gunner was also killed in the explosion.

Immediately afterward, the tank destroyed another heavy machine gun. A safe passage was cleared for the follow-up infantry.

Subsequently, the tank continued to advance, and the tracks ran over the barbed wire fence and deer village of the Russian army, crossed their trenches, and entered the positions of the Russian army.

"Da Da Da!" The tanks that broke into the Russian positions were like tigers that broke into the flock, wantonly slaughtering these Russian soldiers. Countless Russian soldiers were killed.

A large number of Russian soldiers began to turn around and flee despite the obstruction of their commanders. However, a large part of them were slaughtered by German machine-gun fire.

The infantry, who followed the tanks, seized this opportunity and broke through the positions of the Russian troops. began to provide protection for the tanks, and at the same time, with the assistance of the tanks, to clean up the remaining Russian troops on the positions.

With only one round of attacks, the Germans broke through the Russian defense line on the outskirts of Lviv. The Russian army suffered heavy losses, and many people were killed by the Germans. There were also quite a few Russian troops who directly raised their hands and surrendered to the Germans.

The rest of the Russian army fled back to Lviv.

"Well done! Ordered the troops to launch an attack on the city of Lviv. Take Lviv in one fell swoop. Lieutenant General François ordered.

The speed of the German advance was beyond his expectations. Of course, this is good news, which means that they can annihilate the Russian army here in the shortest possible time and win the battle.

Tens of thousands of German troops, led by dozens of tanks, divided into four lines and launched an offensive on Lviv.

The Russian army, which suffered heavy losses, wanted to resist the German attack, it was simply impossible. Many Russian soldiers, when they saw the black tank rushing towards them, threw away their weapons and fled, without thinking about resisting at all. They were already frightened by the German tanks.

The command of the 4th Army of the Russian army, General Dimitryev is like an ant on a hot pan. The Germans were launching a fierce assault on the cities defended by his troops. Although, he thinks he's done everything he can. However, he was not at all sure whether he could withstand the German attack.

"General, Your Excellency the Commander asks us to hold Lviv. He has already ordered the 3rd Caucasian Army to reinforce us. The adjutant reported to Admiral Dimitryev.

"Hold on, then you have to be able to hold on! The Germans attacked so fiercely that our troops could not resist their attack at all, so how could we defend? Admiral Dimitriev was furious. From the very beginning, when Admiral Ivanov ordered him to resist the attack of the German 8th Army, he knew that it was a chore. However, now he knew that he still seriously underestimated the enormity of this task!

"General, the outer line of defense is lost! The Germans stormed Lviv. A staff officer reported to Admiral Dimitriev in a panic.

"How is that possible? It had only been two hours since the Germans attacked. Is the perimeter line lost? Admiral Dimitriev looked shocked.

"General, the Germans take tanks as the vanguard, and we can't resist the attack of their tanks at all!" The staff officer explained.

"Bastard! Order the troops in the city to hold their positions. There must be no retreat without my orders! Admiral Dimitriev ordered.

"Yes, General." The staff officer went to deliver the order.

It's just that the order of Admiral Dimitriev is useless. The German army that attacked the city of Lviv was still fierce. And the resistance of the Russian army, like paper paste, was easily broken through by them.

In the case of successive defeats, the Russian army's will to resist is even weaker. Many times, as soon as the Russian army saw the German tanks coming, they fled directly. Even, many people raised their hands directly at the German tanks.

For the Germans, the battle was too easy. The resistance of the Russian army was fragile and simply unable to stop the Germans.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the commander of the 4th Front of the Russian Army, General Dimitryev, seeing that the general trend was gone, had to lead the remnants to break through and flee in the direction of Stry. And Lviv, the most important supply base of the Russian Southwestern Front, completely fell into the hands of the Germans. At the same time, there were also mountains of materials that fell into the hands of the Germans.
