Tula Oblast, an administrative oblast next to Moscow.

Tula, the administrative center of the Tula region, is located 193 km south of Moscow.

It can be said that Kalinin is the northwestern gate of Moscow, and Tula is the southern gate of Moscow, so in history, Tula has always occupied an important military strategic position, and at the same time, Tula is still the most important production base of light weapons in the Soviet Union from the time of Tsarist Russia to the present, which can be regarded as the "arsenal" of the Soviets.

Compared with history, Germany's military appearance is more prosperous, in history, the Northern Route Army was trapped in Petersburg, the Southern Route Army fought fiercely in Kharkov and Stalingrad, and it was only the Central Route Army as the main force that really fought Moscow.

But now it was different, the Northern Route Army pounced like a tiger, and at the same time, in addition to advancing towards Kharkov in a separate group, most of the Southern Route Army also advanced from the north of Kiev to the northeast, and together with reinforcements from the center, they advanced towards Moscow.

They attacked the city all the way, cooperated with the Central Route Army, completed the Bryansk-Orel campaign, and once again annihilated more than 100,000 Soviet troops, and the rest of the Soviet army retreated to the line east of Belev, Mtsensk, and Orol, and hurriedly transferred to a new defense.

Otrakinkis, railway station.

There seemed to be a smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and a special military column, emitting black smoke, stopped.

At this time, it was already dusk.

The flatbed truck on the top of the military train, dragging the tarpaulin, and the soldiers in the stuffy tanker truck rushed out and began to unload the truck, and when they took off the tarpaulin, they revealed their huge bodies.

Now, the most common in Germany are the Tiger and Leopard tanks, and this kind of tank, one circle larger than the Tiger, no, two circles, it has been replaced with narrow tracks, it is still half a meter wide, if it is original, it must be more than a meter wide, this flatbed is specially made.

Now, they were carefully unloading the tank from the flatbed, and when they started the engine, the tank didn't rattle like a normal diesel engine, but like an airplane engine, and the supercharger was whistling.

The tank began to move, and when it moved, it could not hear the strain of the engine, but there was more of a stimulus of electric current.

Electrically driven, rat tanks, this is the most top-secret weapon of the empire, and this unit is the 502nd heavy tank battalion that once fought fiercely in Osad.

When the battle of Ozad was over, it entered the period of repair.

For them, trimming is the most boring, their tanks go into the repair shop, craters are filled one by one, damaged mechanisms are repaired, and at the same time, they can only lie in the grass outside the repair shop, chewing grass roots in their mouths, looking at the blue sky and white clouds.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long, almost half a month, and their order to pull out came again, and this time the order made them extremely excited.

On the march to Moscow!

Moscow, the capital of the Soviets, captured Moscow, and the Soviets perished, and every soldier wanted to participate in this war, and now, the 502nd Heavy Tank Battalion, finally had a chance.

At the same time, what made them even happier was that there was another batch of new equipment coming.

Although it was called a heavy tank battalion, there were originally only six Rat tanks in their tank unit, but when they were deployed, they received six more Rat tanks.

In this way, the three companies, each company had four terrible mouse tanks, especially the third company, which originally had no mouse tanks, and could only rob a batch of tiger tanks in the factory under the leadership of Hans.

Now, they've got four new Rats, and they're finally ready to do it!

As for Hans, because of his outstanding performance last time, when the 2nd Company was assigned a new Rat tank, Hans became the commander of this Rat tank with honor.

At this time, Hans was standing on the platform, looking at his mouse tank, which was slowly turning from the flatbed and driving down.

"Be careful, be careful." Hans shouted loudly that this tank was his precious bump, and when he had just received it, Hans had slept almost every day on the wide steel plate behind the tank.

However, he had bad luck.

The driver, Schmidt, had come from the same Rat tank with him, and was supposedly an experienced driver, but when the Rat had turned ninety degrees on the flatbed and was about to drive down, suddenly the flatbed underneath had warped.

"Brake, brake now." Hans shouted loudly.

"Boom!" It didn't work, and Hans watched as the flatbed truck underneath cocked, and then, the massive body of the rat tank, flipped to the side.

The rat tank was too heavy for the flatbed to carry the terrible weight of its massive body, and then it overturned in one fell swoop.

"Damn it!" Hans watched the driver struggle to climb out of it, and cursed, "We can't catch up now." ”

His tank was on the last flatbed, and the roadbed was not flat, but he accidentally hit it, the tank overturned, and then lifted up, it was not easy, at least three cranes had to be used to lift it together.

But the maintenance crane of the 502 heavy tank battalion is still in the next train, and they can only wait for the time being.

"Company commander, you guys go first." Hans looked at Rip, the commander of the 2nd Company, who had come to check on him, and said to him angrily.

At this time, the rumbling sound can be heard in the distance, and the German army, after taking Orel, is still advancing and engaging in fierce battles with the retreating Soviet troops.

Hans couldn't participate in the first battle he was mobilized, and at this time, of course, he was in a bad mood.

And, how do you feel a little wet? Hans looked up, and in the sky, a drizzle was falling, and it was actually raining lightly?

"The order has been given, and the higher authorities have asked us to march immediately towards Mtsensk." Battalion Commander Richard Mark said.

There was no time, they were in the north of the small city, in Mtsensk, where the battle was raging, and now that the new force of the rat tanks had arrived, their orders had arrived.

One by one, the rat tanks drove away from the station, and only Hans was left.

Hans's crew, hiding on the platform to shelter from the rain, looked at the overturned rat tank, and their faces were quite unwilling.

"When will this damn rain stop?" Schmidt couldn't help but grumble: "If the rain keeps falling like this, it will be troublesome." ”

Even if the rat tank has wide tracks, it is not willing to advance in the mud, which is the nightmare of all tank crews.
