"But now Germany, you know, is very chaotic. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Various overseers of the Entente countries were everywhere collecting weapons from the German army and sealing off our warehouses. There was a constant movement of workers in the cities, and the railways had been almost completely paralyzed, relying only on sea transport. I can't guarantee how long the next batch of artillery will be delivered to Lithuania, the enemy won't give you time! General Goltz said.

General Zukauskas and Goltz were silent for a moment.

"How many deaths do we need to take this town?" Zukauskas asked helplessly.

"Maybe a thousand! Maybe two thousand! General Goertz replied slowly. Maybe more! He thought to himself.

"I really don't know if we continue to win like this, how many people will be left in our Lithuania!" General Zukauskas smiled bitterly: "General, I need your full support!" ”

Gertz thought that the fate of the German army and the Lithuanian army were tied together, and now was not the time to paddle, so he nodded and said: "I know that we are in a difficult situation together, and our army will fight with all its might." ”

Ci is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of money, and both of them understand that they must rush out of a bloody road now.

The officers under the commander of the two men communicated together for a long time, coordinated the cooperation of the two armies, and made a plan to attack the city.

The battlefield near Makmergay was limited, and the nearly 10,000 troops of the German and Lithuanian coalition forces could not be fully deployed. On the side of the east gate, it was only suitable for a thousand men to charge at a time.

As for rushing over and attacking the city like ants in the movie, in the current situation where artillery is huge, no matter how much it is just sent over as cannon fodder.

The staff officers of the coalition forces were busy for a long time, and finally formulated a plan for the siege.

"According to intelligence, the Soviet troops in our rear are about two days away from us, and of course if they force their march, they can be filled, but the physical strength and heavy equipment cannot keep up, and they will not pose a serious threat to us for the time being.

Previous intelligence indicates that there are sixty artillery pieces stored in the city of Macmelgay, tens of thousands of shells, and heavy machine guns

According to our observations, the enemy built ten batteries above the walls on the eastern side, which were supposed to be captured 105mm howitzers and 77mm field guns. Four forts were built on top of the walls on the south side and two on the west side.

The Soviet troops also built twenty machine-gun fortresses on the eastern side of the city walls, eight at the south gate and four at the west gate. There are 100 light and heavy machine guns stored in the city of Makmergay, and millions of rounds of ammunition.

And our army is now armed with fifty of the same artillery, and there are only two thousand shells.

We planned to spend half an hour destroying the enemy's batteries and machine-gun fortresses above the city walls, with an estimated need for a thousand shells. Then use the remaining ammunition to suppress the enemy's artillery and fortifications deployed in the city.

The main force attacked the east gate, and at the south gate used a battalion of troops to pin down the enemy. A German officer spoke to the two generals.

"So be it! Tomorrow the offensive begins! General Zukauskas patted the plan.

After a night of fighting, the coalition forces had dug dense trenches outside the city of Lithuania and established siege positions.

The Soviets fired from time to time from above the walls to the bottom, and although he caused some casualties, he could not stop the coalition forces from continuing to dig.

The German artillery had already set up artillery positions six or seven kilometers from the city walls.

"Fire!"

As the order was given, five shells landed near the eastern city wall, and one fell not far from the city.

Observers at the front immediately sent back information, and the artillery officer immediately instructed the soldiers to adjust the design parameters.

As the second round of test firing fell within thirty meters of the city walls, the coalition artillery began to fire a salvo. Suddenly, the heavens and the earth were filled with the roar of cannons and the explosion of shells.

As the shells fell near the city wall, the hearts of the Soviet soldiers on the city wall trembled.

There was a sudden explosion overhead, and a Soviet soldier only felt his ears ringing incessantly from the sudden explosion, and his mind was a little dizzy.

We were hit, thought to the Soviet soldier, and looked up at the artillery emplacement of wood and earth above his head, and although the earth kept falling from it, it seemed to be collapsing in the next second, but the whole battery was still resisting the shell. Otherwise, this artillery and a dozen people nearby will all be crushed.

"Quick! Fast! The enemy is attacking! ”

"Find out where the enemy artillery is!" Soviet officers constantly conveyed orders.

"Find the enemy's position, and shoot me immediately! Don't save shells! Enough shell tubes! The Soviet officer said arrogantly.

The forts above the city walls began to ring one after another.

Of these batteries, only one or two of them were originally used as artillerymen, and the rest were all infantry who switched to doing this on the spot.

The artillery was responsible for measuring the position, adjusting the design parameters, and the rest of the soldiers were responsible for carrying the shells under the command of the artilleryman. The original artillery group was split up and was responsible for several artillery pieces.

Of course, each artilleryman is actually only aware of the part he originally did, and in the end, a former artillery group is responsible for several artillery pieces, which coordinates the firing parameters in a unified manner, and the artillery guides these infantry to open artillery.

The artillery fire on the city walls looks terrifying, but the landing points are very different and irregular.

"Sir, our shells look so far away!" An upright Soviet soldier said, looking at the bombing sites that were blooming everywhere outside.

"Well, don't be nervous, I'm just letting you familiarize yourself with the process of firing the gun. It's a test shot! Well, let's do it again and adjust the parameters. The artilleryman said with a slight embarrassment.

"Dicas! The parameters of our group were 15 degrees south-east, and the muzzle was raised by 30 degrees. “

A herald ran up to him and said.

"Yes, yes, yes! Adjust the angle quickly! "The artillery instructed the infantry to adjust the firing parameters of the artillery and continued to fire, and sure enough, the shells fell near the enemy's position.

The artillery of both sides fired at each other in this way.

The batteries of the Soviet army were all dead, and the allied troops had calculated the firing parameters early, and the shells were very accurate, and the shells exploded on the city wall one after another.

The Soviet artillery, relying on the fortified defenses of the batteries, was completely immune to the shock wave and shrapnel of the Allied shells, and sometimes even a direct hit from a 77mm shell.

The allied forces relied on constantly changing firing positions, firing for about ten minutes at a time, and immediately leaving with horses and artillery to avoid being destroyed by the artillery of the Soviet army.
