Chapter 176: New Situation
The group in another place found an artillery position, which should be an artillery battalion that had been withdrawn to rest, and there were only 5 artillery pieces, all of which were 150 caliber howitzers, although a lot of defensive facilities were also prepared, but after careful observation, the snipers confirmed that there were only two German outposts, and the location of the sentry and the patrol was also confirmed, and at the same time, the other groups also made their own discoveries, and soon the telegram was collected, and the captain of the nearest group led the team made direct contact with Andrei: "Report to Comrade General, We are now in the process of getting a preliminary understanding of the German disposition north of Mamayev Heights. Pen, fun, pavilion www.biquge.info... β
Well, Andrei also asked the staff officers to mark the situation of the report, and the deputy division commander Colonel Yanayev, who had just been trained with recruits, said: "This group of people brought by the division commander is worthy of being an elite unit, I remember that the group army also sent reconnaissance troops, but there is no such detailed information." β
Thinking of this, Andrei couldn't help but feel proud, you must know that the signal flag is also based on his own training syllabus based on the experience of later generations and the cooperation of experts from the current Soviet army, not only the military quality is excellent but the team members all know German, some groups rely on the captured military ID cards and passes to contact the German army but have not been recognized, in various contacts to obtain more information about the German army, you must know that although there is a sense of secrecy, but in front of their own people will still leak some information, For experienced team members, they can summarize and analyze the situation and get intelligence reports, and the special forces can not only destroy the scouts who are stronger than the front army in reconnaissance.
And Brezhnev also said next to him: "Yes, with this information, it will also play a great role in our next deployment." β
However, at this time, Brezhnev also knew in his heart that these internal affairs troops were elite troops with special missions, which belonged directly to the base camp, and Andrei was one of the founders of this army, and he really didn't know if he could create such a unit in the future, and at this time, he didn't know that in the future he would authorize the KGB to set up a team that would make Europe and the United States frightened in the future and be called the black devil!
And the staff officers who gathered the intelligence suddenly made a discovery, and the deputy chief of staff, Akhromeyev, made a discovery while working on the map, he drew a circle with a red pencil and said: "Report to the division commander, political commissar, deputy division commander, the German division headquarters is within the range of the artillery of that artillery battalion, if our small detachment can capture the artillery, can we kill them with German shells!" β
What, Andrei and all three came to the map, and Yanayev asked: "Comrade Captain, are you sure?" And Brezhnev said cautiously beside him: "Do you ask the comrades of the artillery regiment!" If you can, we're discussing specific plans. β
And Andrei said: "I believe in the judgment of Comrade Akhromeyev, and then let's discuss the specific plan!" β
Hearing Andrei's support, Akhromeyev raised his head from the map and looked at Andrei gratefully, perhaps knowing what the division commander might think if he dared to say this, so Chief of Staff Plavio asked tentatively: "Comrade division commander, are you going to use the enemy's artillery positions to do anything, so you need to determine the enemy's division headquarters?" β
"Chief of Staff, don't you ask this more than that!" Brezhnev also looked away from the map and said to Plavia: "If I am not mistaken, the division commander is thinking that our troops will shell the enemy's division headquarters with captured artillery after seizing the artillery positions in the night attack tonight. β
"Shelling the division headquarters of the German army?" Plavio asked in surprise: "With just those few guns, we have to shell the enemy's division headquarters, and we don't have professional artillery among the soldiers we send, can this work?" β
"Nothing can't be done." Andrei said confidently: "The enemy's artillery is equipped with heavy artillery, and after seizing the artillery position, the troops are only responsible for adjusting the direction of fire and firing at the target according to the direction. Things like adjusting gun emplacements, reloading, and pulling the gun rope, they were all trained and didn't have any problems. β
And Plavio continued to ask: "Commander, then how did they get out?" And Andrei said confidently: "Don't worry about this, I believe in their ability"
Then Andrei said: "But after seizing the artillery position, let's not open fire immediately, so that the reconnaissance battalion is also ready to attack the troops, and then we will give the Germans a blow!" "Sound from east to west?" The Brezhnev four obviously did not understand this idiom peculiar to China, and Andrei said: "To put it simply, if we attack so that the Germans will focus on the front line, then when their backyard is on fire, the German army will inevitably be in chaos, so won't the attacking troops have a chance to escape?" β
On the German side, two shells and one warhead were urgently sent to the rear, because the signal flag was left with the cartridge casings of the Makarov pistol when retreating after a sneak attack, and the Makarov pistol is 9 mm caliber and 7.62 mm caliber Tokarev pistol is completely different, more importantly, during the Soviet-German honeymoon period, the two countries had military exchanges, and the German pistol was introduced by the Ministry of Internal Affairs but the bullets were different, and the Soviet Union was 9 ΓThe 18mm bullet was not compatible with the German 9mm Ultra bullet, because the Soviet bomb had a larger warhead diameter.
And at the same time as the bullet case was delivered there was a deformed warhead, after the identification of military experts, the Germans confirmed that this should be a new type of bullet made by the Soviets, and this bullet obviously absorbed the advantages of the German bullet, and more importantly, by comparing the firing marks of the bullet case, the Germans found that this was different from the Walter pistol exported to the Soviet Union that year, and it was not other pistols, and there was no bullet of this kind in the pistol that was known to fire 9 mm caliber,
But a gun designer believes that this gun does absorb the characteristics of German pistols, judging from the bullet casing and other circumstances, the Soviets obviously still have a reference for German guns, and the performance is exceeded, just like the 7.62 mm short-barreled bullet found some time ago, the Soviet military industry has always been on the same level as Germany.
After the information about the new type of weapons was reported to the ordnance administration, it was actually known to Hitler, who had always regarded the supremacy of the Germans as the criterion, was angry at this information, and he demanded that the German military industry must come up with works that surpass those of the Russians and not lose to the Bolsheviks!
And the German army on the front line is not concerned about the pistol, but the people who left the bullet casing, since Andrei introduced the special warfare, the Soviet special forces with the guerrillas but let the rear of the German army anxious, the special forces are far more terrible and powerful than the guerrillas, the rear warehouses, bridges, and headquarters have been attacked, this new pistol appeared, on behalf of the Soviet special forces more difficult to deal with, which made the German army on the front line very headache, so the German army ordered the rear department not to slack off, as long as it is in the theater of war, it must be fully guarded, However, before this order was delivered, their tragedy came (to be continued)
