Chapter 1296: The eastern part of the city
"We are now attacking Ossad only in the west and north of Ossad, but we are not blocking the passage of the Soviets at sea." After Hans entered the headquarters, he said in a similar way: "General, you say, will the Soviets provide military support to Ozard from the sea?" ”
Hans said it very simply, and this is exactly what happened, for the past few days, Nikolai has also been worried about this, as their own fierce attacks, the Soviets are gradually unable to resist, so will they support at sea?
"Then you say, what are we going to do?" Nikolai asked.
The Romanian army is still strong, but the navy and air force are not good, and the air force is only able to seize the air supremacy over the current Ozsad, and this is because the air force of the Soviets is not good, they are all transferred to Moscow and Kiev.
The Romanian Air Force simply cannot carry out the bombing of the port on its own, unless it is a joint Luftwaffe, but unfortunately Germany has been busy attacking Moscow all the time, and obviously has no time to help Romania fight the port here.
If Hans proposed to use the Air Force, then Nikolai could only smile, after all, what he was in front of him was just an ordinary tank soldier, not a senior commander, he did not have a concept of the overall situation, he would not be thoughtful, it was normal.
"I suggest that we focus our offensive on the east, as long as we occupy the eastern part of the city of Osad, our artillery can hit the port directly, we can block their port, and the Soviets' naval support for Ossad will be interrupted, so that we can take Ossad as soon as possible."
Hearing Hans's analysis, Nikolai couldn't help but nodded, this is also the problem that Nikolai is considering now, change the direction of the attack, since the Soviets have deployed layers of obstacles in the direction of their own advance, so that they can't hit the city center as soon as possible, simply surround the city outside the city, go around to the east, as long as they occupy the eastern city, they can block the port by artillery.
Although there were not enough bombers, there were plenty of artillery in the Romanian army, and the blockade of the port was perfectly fine.
"Land, change the direction of our current attack and advance to the east!" Nikolai made a decision.
Outside, the east gradually revealed the white of the fish's belly, and it was a new day.
"General, I need to go back to the front, my comrades are still waiting for me, so I will leave here." Hans said.
Nikolai didn't even think about it, and hurriedly sent Hans back to the battlefield in his car, forgetting to ask the doctor if Hans was well?
Almost at the same time, in the port of Ozad, which had just been darkened, cargo ships docked.
Although the port was still under the control of the defenders, they generally only moved at night to avoid attracting the attention of the Romanians.
Now that they've arrived at the port, they need to get ashore quickly!
"Quick, quick!" One of the soldiers in charge of the guidance, with a horn in his hand, shouted loudly: "Take up your weapons and fight for the defense of Osad!" ”
These soldiers, dressed in naval uniforms, are striding onto land, they are the latest marines to be reorganized from the rear, they have just finished regrouping, they have rushed to Osad, they are going to defend the city!
In their hands, they only had the most primitive weapon, the Monasingan rifle, but their full mental state was enough to offset the lack of equipment, and they looked at the black smoke rising in the distance, full of war intent.
At the same time as the soldiers came ashore, there was a rumbling sound on the deck of the cabin, which attracted everyone's attention, and they looked with excited eyes at the smooth appearance of the tank, which was moving towards the shore.
Unlike other tanks, the turret of this tank is a round hemispherical shape, like a turtle shell fastened to it, and this tank is more symmetrical than the toilet head.
"What kind of tank is this?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Don't know, do you? This is our newest Stalin tank, this kind of tank is the most powerful, and it can completely beat the Tiger tank of the Germans. Suddenly, someone who knew the inside story shouted.
Not bad, Stalin tanks!
After discovering that the German rat tanks appeared in Osad, Moscow attached great importance to it, although now there was tension on all fronts and the need for new tanks, it transferred five Stalin's tanks that had just been produced from the Leningrad Locomotive Plant and transported them to Osad, and at the same time, it was not the navy that operated these tanks, but pure tank crews transferred from other places.
Platoon commander Yuri Tolstoy, who was directing Stalin's tanks ashore, knew how difficult the task was for his side.
Those rat tanks are too powerful, and with the fire support of the rat tanks, the Ozad defenders can't hold on at all, and their task is to knock out the opponent's rat tanks!
Of course, he knew that the 122-mm tank gun of the Rat tank was ineffective against the frontal armor of the German Rat tank, and it was easier to get hold only by sneaking up on the side, or even from behind.
How to get around the back of the Germans?
Now, they are fighting in the east and north of the city, and what if they go around from the east?
In the intervals when Stalin's tanks kept coming ashore, Yuri was already thinking about his own tactics.
"Platoon commander, we're all down!" A voice came from beside him, and Acks, a small young man from Central Asia, shouted at Yuri.
"Go, follow my tanks, and we'll attack from the east of the city." Yuri shouted.
Surprisingly, now, in addition to some tractor-modified N1 tanks and a few KV-2 tanks repaired at the tractor factory, Ozad does not have particularly advanced tanks, and the arrival of his own side can completely catch the other side off guard, even if it can't knock out the rat, you can also knock a few tigers, and you can even attack the tiger head-on.
One by one, Stalin's tanks, emitting black smoke, marched towards the battlefield, and in the rumbling sound of battle in the western city, they seemed to be gradually moving away from the battlefield, and actually headed for the eastern part of the city.
This reinforcement was more than 12,000 people, and their support for Ozad quickly turned the precarious front into a stable state.
Tractor plant.
"Boom!" With a loud explosion outside, it shook everyone's eardrums, and they were not affected in the slightest.
"Slow down, slow down!" The director of the workshop, Akalov, shouted to the workers of the overhead crane at the beginning.
On the crane, a long barrel was hoisted, which slowly descended downward, and soon, it descended to the newly welded turret behind the tractor below.
"Good!" Two men pushed the barrel and connected it to the base below, and now, the 45 mm anti-tank gun was used up, and they had to load the 37 mm gun.
"Director Akalov, the Romanian soldiers, have rushed to the street outside our factory, and the workers and fighters on the last line of defense are almost unstoppable!"
A worker with a bleeding head and a rifle in his hand came in and shouted.
"Let's go, let's get out!" Akalov said, jumping onto the freshly installed tractor tank.
"But we don't have a school gun yet." The workers on the crane shouted loudly.
"Can't wait, you can calibrate with a few shots!" At this time, other workers had already run up, and the engine in front of it, the tank with the smell of electric welding, started to start.
