Chapter 223: Pavlov's Counterattack
The plan for a plane crash actually failed! When the news reached Franco, Franco was very angry in the face of his subordinates. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Corseis lowered his head, as if he was a primary school student who had not scored a hundred points in the exam, lowered his head, and his mouth squirmed: "Kubala has committed suicide, so we can completely put aside this matter from our relationship, all of this is Kubala's own behavior, Kubala wants to replace General Mora and become the commander of the Northern Army, so he murdered General Mora." ”
"Cosese, you idiot!" Franco said: "General San Hurho died in a plane crash, and now, General Mora almost died in a plane crash, as long as he associates these things together, he can suspect us!" ”
Franco valued the Northern Army, which was an indispensable force for the Chinese Nationalist Army in the Spanish Civil War, and if the Nationalist Army was in civil strife because of this incident, it would lose half of its strength in an instant, and the plan to overthrow the Spanish regime would also become quite difficult.
"Also, when General Mora arrived in Zaragoza, he gave a big speech." Cosese continued: "In order to avoid accidents, we did not arrange for personnel to assassinate him. However, now it seems that the eastern provinces are spreading the heroic deeds of General Mora. ”
Franco had a black face and didn't say anything, it was already obvious that General Mora definitely smelled something, so Mora gave speeches everywhere in Zaragoza and accumulated political capital!
Damn, what to do? Now that Mora is on guard, it is not so easy to assassinate him, and if he fails next time, he and Mora will definitely tear off their faces.
Just when Franco didn't know how to choose, outside, José ran in in a panic and shouted at Franco: "General, it's not good, the Republican Army in Madrid has launched a large-scale counteroffensive, and our army is retreating!" ”
Counterattack! At such a time, the guards of Madrid actually launched a counteroffensive!
Ciric's march disrupted Madrid's position, and after the capture of Zaragoza, Madrid knew that the situation was moving in their favor!
They must make progress, or they will only have to watch the east be encroached upon by the rebels, until the situation in the whole of Spain is out of control!
Now, the most important thing is to break the siege of Madrid by the rebels! In this case, Madrid must use an overwhelming victory to show the Spanish people that they have not lost and that they still have an advantage!
The international column in the rear, the People's Army troops, quickly marched into Madrid with the reorganized troops.
Among them, the most combat-ready were the 47 T-26 tanks led by the Soviet brigade commander Pavlov!
Pavlov, in later generations of the Soviet Army, was a well-known tank expert of the Red Army! And his career started from now on!
The whole of Madrid is full of gunsmoke, although the rebels have not officially invaded the interior of Madrid, but the situation is already precarious!
The rebels had already surrounded the west and northeast of Madrid, and only the southeast was still a gap, as if the rebels had deliberately left a gap, and it was through this opening that Pavlov and his armored corps entered Spain.
Opening the hatch of the tank, Pavlov revealed half of his body, and he used his binoculars to look at the rebel positions in the distance.
This is their only chance, if this counterattack fails, then he has no chance to continue the counterattack at all, and, as a traditional tradition, as a loser, he is afraid that he will be sent back to his home country to face military trial.
"Comrades, in order to defend Madrid, we are going to repel the attack of the rebels, and now, we are going to strike!" Pavlov shouted loudly.
His tanks were not equipped with radios, and various tactics had to be determined before the tank troops were mobilized.
They need a tactical counterattack from Las Rosas to Madagahoda to defeat the rebels once and for all!
Sortie!
T-26 tanks, with their engines rumbling, bravely attacked the enemy's positions, and on both sides of the tanks, there were a large number of fighters of the international column.
Butan synergy! Pavlov is a man who is good at absorbing experience, he has observed the attack of German tank troops, and keenly discovered this fact, a single tank charge is very vulnerable to the attack of the opposing infantry, and the best plan is to coordinate with the infantry and tanks!
Attack, attack!
One by one, the tanks roared and rushed towards the positions of the Central Army on the opposite side!
"Boom!" Skilled Soviet tank crews, one shot knocked out an anti-tank gun on the opposite side! Several artillery soldiers were blown up and howled, this accurate shelling blew up the opposite Central Army, it happened that Jose was not on the front line to supervise the battle, seeing dozens of tanks rushing over, they were very afraid, they dropped their weapons one after another, and began to retreat!
As soon as he stopped, Pavlov broke through the enemy's positions! The infantry following the tanks is also constantly firing to destroy the retreating infantry!
Then Pavlov went on the offensive, attacked! After three consecutive days of advancement, he completely broke through the opponent's defense!
In particular, on the third day, they had an encounter with the Moroccan cavalry!
"We can't retreat, and if we retreat, the whole front, it will collapse." Asri looked at the cavalry in the distance and said to his men, "Although we can't compete with the tanks, we can cut down those infantry if we rush up and rush to them!" Here's our chance! ”
Rush up and kill the infantry behind the opposing side!
Asri led his cavalry and delivered one final assault!
In his hand, he wields a shiny saber, a 1907-style cavalry straight sword, holding a wooden handle and an iron gauntlet with a full cup shape in front of it. Near the blade double-edged, the deeper, square blood groove tapered and extended almost the entire blade.
From afar, it looks like a forest of bayonets, and this forest is moving forward rapidly!
Attack, attack!
Here, Pavlov couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the opposing cavalry rushing over, this group of stupid Spanish rebels would actually send themselves such results?
Although there was no radio to transmit orders, all the tank crews knew that it was their chance to make meritorious contributions!
The 7.62mm DT machine gun fired a fierce counterattack at the Moroccan cavalry troops! On each tank, there are two such machine guns, dozens of machine guns, radiating a rain of bullets towards the cavalry troops!
