Chapter 402: A Soldier Without a Gun
When three red signal flares rose in the sky, the tanks of Army Group South began to attack, each armored assault group was about ten kilometers apart, needless to say the Soviet cannon fodder in the first line of defense, the tanks and armored vehicles of Army Group South were directly crushed over, and there was basically no resistance, and the artillery of Army Group South had already made those cannon fodder disappear.
Zhukov, of course, knew the power of the artillery and tanks of Army Group South, and the defense line in front of them were all cannon fodder units, and these troops did not have many heavy weapons, and the most in their hands were anti-tank grenades and explosive packs.
Flitz was demoted last time because of greed, and now he is only the rank of sergeant squad leader, but Li Mo still let Frieze continue to serve as the commander of the "Scythe of Death" armored regiment, and today Frieze was assigned to the front line, Flitz led one hundred and fifty-two tanks and the same number of armored vehicles, and behind them were two other tank regiments following up, their task was to rotate the "Reaper's Scythe" armored regiment when the "Reaper's Scythe" armored regiment attacked a certain distance, and would come up to rotate the "Reaper's Scythe" armored regiment, Behind the assault group of the armored regiment was a whole five infantry divisions.
This infantry division that followed was to occupy the positions broken by the armored assault group and completely tear apart the defensive lines of the Soviet army.
"Boom...... Rumble......"
"Report to the regiment commander, the first line of defense of the Soviet army has been destroyed by artillery, and there is no resistance, please instruct."
Flitz thought about it, picked up the microphone in front of him, and began to report the situation to his superiors, and after receiving the order to continue the attack, Flitz did not hesitate. Hurriedly ordered his tank to crush the second line of defense of the Soviet army with horsepower, now Flitz is much more careful, in the process of impact, do not forget to contact the air force on his head, Colonel Weiss is the "nanny" of Flitz's armored assault group.
When Fritz contacted Colonel Weiss, Weiss directly told Fritz that the Soviet troops in the front two lines of defense were not very strong, and Colonel Weiss told Fritz to throw off his arms and charge.
Since the threat of the Soviet army was not great, Frieze of course wanted to throw off his arms and charge, but Frieze, who was carrying the punishment on his back, did not dare to be arrogant. Otherwise, his acting head will be removed.
"All tanks remain in formation. Keep attacking forward. ”
Soon Flitz and the others assaulted in front of the Soviet army's second line of defense, and Flitz adjusted his formation and prepared to assault.
……
Newich was a native Georgian farmer who lived on a collective farm. It was supposed to be a bumper harvest of grain. But every year, grain has to be transported out in large quantities. As a result, Neville's farm was starved to death, and no one dared to resist. Even if you say the wrong thing, you may face the end of execution.
Suddenly the war broke out, Nevich was forcibly pulled into the army, Naviqi was assigned to the second line of defense, the soldiers here are all peasants who have just enlisted in a hurry, only the battlefield discipline personnel led by the political commissar are veterans, these people are fierce, as long as anyone dares to escape, they will be immediately executed by the political commissar......
The two fellow villagers who came with Nevich, one of whom was executed for running away, and the other for complaining, accidentally showed his dissatisfaction with the collective farm, and as a result, he was also executed.
Because Neviqi was more honest, he didn't think about running away or complaining about anything, Neviqi just wanted to go home alive and be reunited with his wife. This time, Neville's assigned task is the demoman, and what was sent to Neviqi's hand was two anti-tank grenades, and there was also an explosives bag, which was all of Neville's weapons, and as for the rifle, there was no rifle, and half of Neville's company was a member of the demolition team, that is to say, Neville's company, ordinary people did not have guns, and their main task was to carry the explosive bag to blow up the German tank.
As for the training of Neviqi, the political commissar took them to explain for a morning, and then everyone did what the political commissar said, and roughly did one side, and even if the training was completed, they were clear cannon fodder.
"Demolition team, prepare."
In the distance, there was finally a figure of German tanks in the dark, in terms of quantity, there were more than 100 tanks alone, and there were countless armored vehicles behind, in fact, Neviqi was scared to death, but the hoarse shouts of the political commissar were still echoing in his ears, Neviqi did not dare to escape, he could only pray in his heart.
"Boom...... Rumble......"
The ground shook and the dirt on the edge of the trench fell in a flurry, and Nevich could only cover his head with his hands and huddle in the trench shivering.
"Bump...... Ouch...... Get up, the demolition team is ready to ......"
Newich was kicked by the commissar so desperately that he almost didn't break Neviqi's ribs, and Neviqi groaned in pain, and looked up to see that it was the vicious commissar, and Neviqi was forced to swallow it back as soon as he wanted to scold.
"Boom...... Rumble......"
"On the demolition group, hurry up...... Those who retreat are shot on the spot...... Hurry up ......"
The political commissar was in the trenches, with battlefield discipline officers, and forced all the demolition team personnel to charge with guns.
"Woooooooooo......oo Bang bang bang...... Ahh!!hhhhh ”
There were a few members of the demolition team who were slightly timid and curled up and whimpering, and in the trench where the people led by the commissar were mercilessly shot, blood instantly penetrated the soil under them, Neviqi did not dare to stay, put two anti-tank grenades in his waist, and rushed out with explosives bags in his arms.
"Click...... Click...... Boom...... Ahh!!hhhhh ”
More than 60 cannon fodder of Neville's company were driven out of the trenches, and their company's defense line was 500 meters long, and about 500 members of the demolition team were driven out of the trenches in the front of the attack of the entire German armored group, and began to charge desperately against the tanks of the German Army Group South.
These peasants, who had just put down their hoes, did not know any tactical movements at all, just like they usually ran, and rushed with their heads held high with explosives bags, because they had to rush, and all the battlefield discipline officers would regard the backward ones as cowards and shoot them mercilessly, and be killed by the Germans, maybe there would be nothing, but at least they would not affect their families, and if they did not charge because they were timid, the hard days of their families would come, and the collective farms would not have enough to eat, and in this case, it would be difficult for their families to have a chance to survive.
So everyone can only rush desperately, rush - only themselves die, not rush - it is themselves and their families who die, most men will choose the former, desperate charge, of course, there are cowards, scared and trembling, their result is to be immediately shot and turned into a cold corpse.
"Click...... Ahhhhh!!h …… Boom ......"
