Chapter 315
"Brigade Commander Zhang, I didn't expect it. Just one day after coming to Leningrad, he had to face the tanks and artillery of the Germans, looking at the tank cannons below, what did Brigade Commander Zhang feel in his heart. Watching Zhang Dongbei walk up to his side, Stalin said with a smile.
"Hehe, I'm thinking that the Germans also know that time waits for no one, and it is about to enter the cold winter, and they don't want to stay here this winter. That's why they're in such a hurry. Zhang Dongbei said with a smile.
"Oh? How could Brigade Commander Zhang think that? You mean to say that the Germans want to escape? Stalin looked at Zhang Dongbei with deep meaning.
Zhang Dongbei said with a smile: "I don't know if they can escape, but I know that they must seize every second to fight, at least they want to let themselves capture a few cities that Hitler set for them when the cold winter comes, such as the current Leningrad, or Moscow." They definitely want to destroy all our faith in the shortest possible time. As far as I know, the width of the railway trunk lines in the Soviet Union is not the same as that of other countries, and the German trains cannot run in the Soviet Union at all, and if you want to run, you must re-erect the railway, and now several railways built by Germany in the Soviet Union should have been under the control of the Soviet army, and the cost of air transportation is too large, and the transportation volume is too small, which is really no longer affordable for Germany now, so now the German army that is deep in the Soviet Union can almost be said to have lost its logistical support, in this case, The only thing the Germans could do now was to fight quickly. ”
Stalin looked at Zhang Dongbei with appreciation and said with a smile: "Brigadier Zhang is really amazing, he has only been in the Soviet Union for a day, and he already knows the situation in my Soviet Union in such detail, which really makes me admire." It seems that it is a gray and correct decision to ask Brigade Commander Zhang to come to help this time. Then Brigade Commander Zhang, look at these German troops outside the city now, how should we deal with them? If it had been before, perhaps I would have continued to implement the policy of defeat to paralyze the German army. But today I can't do it anymore, not for anything else, just because the city we are in now, Leningrad is a heroic city, but also the spiritual pillar of the Soviet people, and Hitler wants to capture Leningrad precisely because of this, so we will definitely not lose this battle, we must win, and we must win beautifully. However, as you can see now, Brigade Commander Zhang, the Germans outside the city have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers and tanks, and it is not easy to win this battle, I don't know what good strategy Brigade Commander Zhang has in mind? ”
Zhang Dongbei glanced at Stalin, and then at Zhukov, who was standing beside him, but did not speak.
Stalin seemed to see the concerns in Zhang Dongbei's heart, and said with a smile: "Brigade Commander Zhang, you have something to say, it is wartime, and anyone can say it directly as long as they have good suggestions." You don't have to worry about it, and I have already discussed it with Zhukov before you came. Now we'd like to hear from you. ”
Zhang Dongbei smiled, nodded and said: "Now that the German army is pressing, and looking at the German army's arrangement, we want to use tanks to open the way for the soldiers behind, so what we need to do now is to knock out these tanks of the German army, then the remaining soldiers behind will completely become fish on the felt board, and when the time comes, as long as our tanks roll towards the German army, it will be as simple as crushing ants." ”
Zhukov said with a smile: "Brigade Commander Zhang, isn't your idea a little too idealistic, not to mention that the number of tanks on the other side is about five hundred, with your combat plan, if we want to destroy the five hundred tanks of the German army, then we have to select a death squad to blow up these tanks, but have you thought about it, what to do with this distance between us and the German army, there is no support to dodge in the middle, as long as the soldiers appear in this area, it will completely become the meat target of the German army." This is not a task that can be completed at all, even if there are really daredevils who can rush to the German tank formation in the end, it is simply negligible for such a huge tank formation, how can we do this brain-dead practice of exchanging an immeasurable loss for a blow that is simply insignificant to the opponent? Zhukov said it unceremoniously, and his words were full of ridicule and mockery, especially the last sentence, which was even more naked insult.
"Zhukov, pay attention to your attitude, Brigade Commander Zhang was specially invited from China to assist us, since he said this method of warfare, then naturally he has his reasons, first listen to his specific explanation of whether his method is feasible or not." Stalin shouted on the side, but looking at his expression, Zhang Dongbei knew that Stalin did not have much hope for the method he said, as Zhukov said, if Zhang Dongbei's method is implemented, then the plain between the Soviet and German armies will be an insurmountable obstacle for the Soviet army.
In the face of Zhukov's unreasonableness just now, Zhang Dongbei was not angry, and said with a smile: "I only said that I wanted to destroy the German tanks, and I didn't say that the Soviet army would organize death squads to run to the enemy's tank formation to die." ”
"Oh? What does that Brigadier Chang mean? Could it be that the Germans drove their own tanks over, and then helped us throw the explosives into the tanks themselves? Zhukov continued to taunt.
Zhang Dongbei glanced at him with slanted eyes, wondering if he had accidentally slept with his daughter, otherwise how could he think he was so unhappy.
With a smile, Zhang Dongbei said: "President, I don't know if you have heard of the radical general, Hitler has always used his goal of conquering the world, you can see how arrogant he is, and the German army has won very victorious wars all over the world, which undoubtedly fuels the arrogance of the German army, and the victory has long made the German army arrogant and arrogant, and for the German army in the Soviet Union now, the previous siege of the city is invincible, and it makes these German troops believe that their guns are fierce. So now it only takes a little provocation and they'll pounce on us like mad dogs. At that time, we will not need to risk our lives to cross the plains. ”
Stalin nodded, "That's a good idea." But the Germans are now superior to us in tanks, troops, and armament, and they may have air force support. Once the Germans were provoked, it was likely to have the opposite effect. And what's even heavier is that even if, as you said, the Germans really rushed over with tanks, then how can we eat all these tanks, and we can't say that in the end, we still have to use death squads, or directly use tanks to bombard, in that case, although our losses will be smaller, but from the perspective of war, we will hold out for a short time. After all, judging from the current situation, Leningrad is like an isolated city, and if we run out of troops now, then Leningrad will also be lost. ”
Zhang Dongbei smiled: "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about this, since I dare to let the German tanks come over, then I have a way to eat them." ”
"Oh? Brigadier Zhang, do you really have a way to wipe out the German tanks in one fell swoop? Although Stalin still had some doubts in his heart, he could not help but get excited.
"Bragging, I'm not afraid of the wind, and my teeth flash. The Germans have 500 tanks, what do you take to eat these steel shells, do you just use those rifles in your hands? Zhukov sneered from the side.
"That's right, with our sniper rifles. I want the Germans to know that a tank counts as a ball, and that sniping is king. Zhang Dongbei said angrily.
