Chapter 173: The Coming Fierce Battle (2)

This time, because the Germans had the cover of the air force, they had the audacity to set up artillery to cover the infantry attack, and in the binoculars, Shaikin's observer said directly: "Are the Germans crazy?" Two regiments of infantry! "And now after a month of fierce fighting, the vegetation of Mamayev Hill has been destroyed, and the snipers can only look for sniper points between foxholes, trenches, and craters, and now what they can do is very limited, because this time the German army has reached the edge of madness, and the junior officers directly charged with the submachine guns and the soldiers, watching the German troops rushing up, the hands of the recruits who just came to the position were trembling, and under the cover of the tanks, the Germans began to charge, and the mountainside positions were destroyed, The Germans rushed directly to the position on the top of the hill, and because of the German planes in the sky, Valennikov and another mortar company could not set up their guns at all now, because I was afraid that the German planes would have just opened fire, and the Germans would have to drop bombs and strafe fire, and the Germans on the other side of the position of the three regiments were also in this position.

And when Andrei arrived at the observation post and saw this scene, he said: "Air Force, our Air Force, if there is no Air Force support, we may not be able to withstand it!" So he hurriedly asked someone to inform Brezhnev, but he didn't expect Brezhnev to come to the observation post, and the communications soldier next to him carried a high-power radio station, and when he saw Brezhnev, Andrei was stunned, and he said: "Ilyich, it's too dangerous, you go back to the division headquarters, there is me here!" But Brezhnev said sternly: "I am the political commissar, and now that the division commanders have come to the front, how can I retreat, we let the soldiers not retreat a single step, of course, we can do it ourselves!" I'll ask for support from the Air Force right away, Andrey, and you can arrange the battle! ”

At this time, the German army attacked the position under superior firepower, because the Soviet artillery could not shoot, the position could only be blocked by small arms, Shaykin killed a German second lieutenant with a shot in a crater, but soon the German bullets flew over, the machine gunner operated the turntable machine gun, a shuttle was not finished, the German bullet hit his head, and soon the German army approached the trench with a fierce momentum, and the instructor picked up the sapper shovel and said: "Brothers, fight with them!" ”

But the Germans are numerous, so the battle is very tragic, a soldier just cut a German soldier with a shovel, and was immediately stabbed in the stomach by three bayonets, a soldier here directly hugged the German army in front of him and pulled the grenade of the other party, "boom", the two people died together, the follow-up fighters continued to come out of the tunnel, the two sides were directly short-handed, with bayonets, butts, shovels, fists, teeth in the fierce, the battle of the Germans after all is a lot of people, at this time the battalion commander looked at this scene, remembered those soldiers a month ago, He said, "Prepare explosives!" ”

And the Germans soon found out, because 20 Soviet soldiers with grenades and explosives bags rushed into the crowd with a bang! A large number of people fell, and the follow-up troops continued to attack, but the Germans were also prepared, they poured alcohol and gasoline in the trenches behind, and then set fire on fire, forming a fire belt directly on the top of the Mamayev Hill. And the trench in front became a separation ditch at this time, and the Soviets had to attack with fire, once the Germans occupied the surface position on the top of the hill, then they would definitely come up with a way to deal with the anti-slope tunnel.

At the same time, in the sky above the Mamayev Heights, 8 fighters painted with red stars, German planes appeared and immediately came to exchange fire with them, and at this time in the rear of the heights, mortars, howitzers, and flying thunder guns were ready, and immediately opened fire.

The blazing flames flowed down the slope like magma, mercilessly devouring hope. Facing the wall of fire, it was impossible to attack, and when the soldiers were at a loss, the instructor who walked in the front rushed into the burning oil without hesitation. Shouted, 'Forward, comrades'. ”

There was his beginning, then the second, the third, the fourth. No one chose to retreat, even if they ran at the front, and their bodies were wrapped in flames. Like a moving fireball, the instructor rushed towards the enemy troops on the opposite side without hesitation. Some of the fighters had been burned to black, but they were still shooting at the Germans. Countless warriors who were swept by the flames, shouting Ula like this, pressed against the enemy on the opposite side. This scene left tears in the soldiers running behind, and the people in the observation post were also in tears, Shaikin, who retreated to the back, watched the soldiers charge in the fire with direct anger in his eyes, he picked up his rifle and came to the back of the charging queue, looking at a German soldier who was shocked by the sight of the sight is a fierce shot past, directly smashed his face!

And many of the German troops on the top of the mountain were stunned, looking at these Soviet troops who were covered in fire and shouting "Ula" rushing up, they were directly frightened!

They think that these Russians are not human beings, but devils in hell!

At the same time, the artillery battle was also carried out very strongly, after all, the Germans had great firepower, although the artillery of the Siberian Volunteer Division destroyed six howitzers, but three of their own guns were also blown up.

And at this time in the air, a pilot piloted his fighter plane and began to dive and shoot at the German artillery positions, Jacques, Raf ......! Pilot Gubank silently recited the names of his fallen comrades as he pressed the firing button.

The four on-board 12.7mm machine guns roared incessantly, and empty shells jumped out of the shell drawers like golden grains dumped from a threshing machine.

Four straight trajectory swept along the messy German artillery position, and the 12.7mm bullet chased the German gunner who was still holding on to the gun position, and the huge kinetic energy of the bullet teared the ugly body apart mercilessly.

From time to time, a string of bullets hit the grenade pile that had been fused, and then the fire flashed, and in the earth-shattering explosion, a huge crimson fireball rose into the air, and the furious shock gun lifted a howitzer cannon away, and countless sharp shrapnel screamed and swept down the surrounding German gunners and ammunition men in pieces.

"Knock down the Russian fighters!" The commander of the 136th Brigade, who personally commanded the anti-aircraft shooting, waved his command knife angrily.

A dense network of more than fifty machine guns enveloped the brave fighter plane, and some German planes broke free from the grapple to attack Gubank's plane.

"Giggles!" The barrels of the four airborne machine guns, still curling with green smoke, were still spinning rapidly, making a crisp sound. Captain Gubank, who had emptied all his bullets, took a breath and looked angrily at the German gun emplacements that were still spitting flames.

Just as Gubank was about to break away from the German anti-aircraft fire with his skillful technique, a series of vicious tongues of fire struck the left flank, and the unbalanced fighter plane suddenly became a live target, and two more bullets followed the trail into the fuselage one after another.

Brezhnev, who was closely watching the battle in the open field, nervously shouted, "Jump!" ”

Yes, at this time, the fighters had already broken away from the German circle of fire, and the German planes were entangled by the reinforced Soviet fighters, although the altitude was only more than 100 meters, but it was on the Volga River, and the pilot still had a good chance of surviving if he parachuted.

Unexpectedly, the German commander who still let the Soviet fighter that had dealt a fatal blow to the artillery of the side detach was regretting it, but he saw that the fighter plane with thick smoke actually turned around and flew straight over.

"What does he want to do?" All the German officers and men, including the German commander, opened their mouths wide, and for a moment no shooters opened fire.

The commanders and fighters of the Siberian Volunteer Division on the Mamayev Gang all looked up at this heroic Soviet fighter. "Do you want to ......" Song Yanhua, who had seen the heroic deeds of the Soviet Air Force in the Anti-Japanese War many times from later generations, roared tragically.

Before the words fell, the N-16 destroyer rushed headlong into the last gun position of the German army, and the German light machine gun shooters who finally understood what the Soviet fighter wanted to do began to strafe wildly.

"Da Da Da!" More than fifty tongues of fire crossed and rolled towards the N-16 destroyer that rushed straight down.

"It's not worth it!" Andrei muttered to himself and closed his eyes, a heroic pilot, but a fighter pilot is a more valuable asset than an airplane.

"It's worth it!" As the dense bullets burrowed into the cabin, Gubank, whose legs were already knee-high, roared and clenched the joystick, and at this moment he finally understood Jacques's choice at that time!

"Puff puff!" Countless bullets drilled the entire nose into a hornet's nest, and dozens of 7.9mm bullets scrambled to sink into Gubank's body.

The fighter plane, which had lost its pilot, still kissed the German gun emplacement straight, "Boom! "In the skyrocketing explosion, the last 105-mm howitzer of the German army flew into the sky in a brilliant fireball.

And the second batch of Soviet fighters arrived, and someone drove the fighter plane to dive and attack, and the German tanks were opened one after another, and now the ground firepower began to take revenge due to the cover of the air force, and Valennikov's eyes were directly red, and he shouted: "Open the artillery, open the artillery!" ”

Boom, boom, mortar shells rained down, and the Germans on the mountainside were suddenly bombed with heavy casualties, because this time the troops were invested a lot and the people were relatively dense, so the taste of this shell was naturally different, at the same time, the remaining artillery of the howitzer battalion and the shells of the flying thunder artillery battalion also exploded in the ranks of the German army, and the Germans also tasted the taste of their 105 and 150 howitzers this time.

The vanguard of the German army on the top of the hill was wiped out by the Soviets in the fierce battleYes, even if the German soldiers raised their hands, the Soviet soldiers mercilessly mended their guns and bayonets without asking for a prisoner, and soon the Germans retreated like a tide again, and the soldiers began to rummage through the corpses of the German soldiers to find everything they needed: ammunition, cigarettes, dry food, watches, this time the German large-caliber artillery was destroyed, but the soldiers were lucky to find a few boxes of shells, this battle lasted from noon to dusk, The two regiments that had just been replenished were directly more than half of the casualties this time, and the artillery regiment and the engineer battalion also paid huge sacrifices, but this time the Siberian Volunteer Division once again repelled the German attack.

And Andrei and Brezhnev at the observation post directly looked at each other speechlessly, the losses in this battle were too great, if it were not for the full support of the Air Force this time, I am afraid it would not be so easy, it is not easy This hard-earned family foundation is almost gone, but the battle is still going on, the ass here has not yet sat firmly, the war report is coming, and the German army actually continues to attack the central railway station at night!
