Chapter 1398: Bad luck

"Quick, get down, don't be discovered by the Germans!" The officers shouted, wanting to lie down in the swamp and become one with it.

If it is found by the frame, in those few minutes, it will attract a large amount of firepower!

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The F189 reconnaissance plane, nicknamed the box, is a special reconnaissance plane with a fairly wide field of vision, and now, when they flew over the swamp here, from a distance, the scouts saw the Soviet troops lining up in a long and winding line as if they were ants crossing the river.

Sure enough, their encirclement was quiet, but the Germans broke through, and it was from this swamp that no one could walk through!

"The box calls the Falcon, the box calls the Falcon, in the swamps southeast of Smolensk, there is an army breaking through, please come over immediately and cover it with fire."

The radio waves spread rapidly, and just two minutes later, the first HS129 arrived.

At this time, there seemed to be nothing left in the swamp, and after the army found the frame, it actually merged with the swamp!

The Soviets were not slow to react, but if they could dodge their own blows, would it be too simple?

"In the middle of the swamp, that isolated island, take it as the center, open fire!" The investigator inside the frame continued to shout.

In the middle of the swamp, there was a small island, with only one tree on it, and that was the highest part of the swamp, where a famous Soviet soldier stopped to rest when he passed by.

With it as the center, fire!

The HS129 attack plane, flying towards the isolated island, after diving downward, pulled up sharply, and the bomb mounted on the center line of the belly accurately smashed into the isolated island.

"Boom!" In the violent explosion, not only the isolated island, but even the isolated island was affected within a few tens of meters around the isolated island.

The Soviet soldiers who were blown out, ghosts cry wolves, their bodies rolled in the swamp, dyed the swamp red, and then, sinking into the swamp, soon disappeared.

When the pilot pulled up, his eyes were already keenly observing the Soviet soldiers who had been blown out, and then, just follow their extension line, and open fire!

"Tom, tom!" When his plane dived down for the second time, the 40mm cannon had already opened fire fiercely, and one shell after another was fired at the Soviet soldiers who were hiding, and this blow made the Soviets completely out of control.

Run!

They seem to have forgotten the risks under their feet, they have just come all the way, and they can walk on the hard bottom, but now, they can't care so much about it, and they are scattered and fleeing.

The first kick, still a hard bottom, the second, suddenly unfathomable, the Soviet soldier realized something, his hands weakly tried to grasp something, but there was an inexplicable force in the swamp, pulling his foot and pulling him all the way in.

When his head was about to go in, he opened his eyes and looked at the clear sky, at the white clouds, and he was filled with despair.

A few bubbles appeared on the swamp, and then it went back to normal, as if nothing had happened.

"Damn! Heavy kill it! "At this time, in the back, the commander of the army group, Major General Rakutin, who had not yet gone down the swamp, shouted loudly.

Due to the abandonment of heavy equipment, they did not even bring an anti-aircraft machine gun, and now, there is only a turntable machine gun!

A soldier carried the bracket in front of him to his shoulder so that the machine gun could be erected, and the machine gunner in the back, aiming at the sky with his eyes, opened fire fiercely at the plane, 7.62 mm bullets, spraying into the sky.

It's a pity that there is no effect, and the HS129 is not afraid of even a small-caliber anti-aircraft gun, let alone a light machine gun.

Instead, it provoked the attack plane and swooped in this direction, and when it pulled up, the machine gunner and the fighter with the machine gun in front of it had already been broken into several pieces, and a large area was swept around.

Rear Admiral Rakutin hid behind a dirt slope and watched the increasing number of attack planes in the sky, knowing that his side was in big trouble this time.

There were not many roads in the swamp, and according to the guide, there was only one road passable, and now, even if these German planes flew away and dropped bombs in the swamp, they had blown up the barely walkable road, and they could not find any other way.

What to do?

"Retreat, let's find another way out of the siege." Looking at the warriors of his own side who were still struggling in the swamp, Rakutin felt a sharp pain in his heart.

No way.

If the Germans had come an hour late, they would have been able to pass, but now there was no way here, and now he had to abandon the troops in front of him and find a new way out.

The soldiers, who had not yet entered the swamp, silently shouldered their weapons and looked at the German planes still raging in the swamp, their eyes were red.

Get out of here and find another way! At this time, the German attack planes were bombarding the swamp indiscriminately, not noticing the rear of the Soviet troops, which had already left.

Their hearts were heavy.

On the battlefield, it is quite shameful to abandon your comrades and run away, but they have no choice.

Walking, walking, and suddenly, they felt as if the ground was shaking under their feet! What's going on?

Germans, come so fast?

Standing on a small dirt slope, when Major General Rakutin raised his telescope, on the horizon in the distance, clouds of black smoke could be seen, and the German tank units were frantically charging towards their side!

Behind him is the swamp that can no longer be passed, and in front of it is the armored forces of the Germans, and when the Germans surround it, the entire 24th Army will be completely wiped out!

In an instant, Major General Rakutin's face was already full of despair, this breakthrough, their army group was completely defeated!

Breakouts, a lot of the time, depend on luck, because when the breakout starts, everything will be chaotic, you may run into the main force of the Germans, or you may find an empty place in the defense, and suddenly drill out.

The German army was large and the armor was huge, but their encirclement was also too large, and there would always be weak positions.

The 24th Army, which broke through with the 28th Army, was quite lucky, they even came out with a cook on their backs, and the entire army was almost intact.

And the fiercest battles still broke out on the openings that were not encircled.

It was precisely because the opening here was not closed that the Soviet troops broke through from this opening, and now, as long as this opening is blocked, the remaining Soviet troops can be intercepted.

The defenders also knew that they had to hold on, and the longer they held out, the more troops they could withdraw.
