The fortress was made of steel, fearless under the German offensive, and no fierce offensive could shake the determination of the defenders. At the Terespol fortress on the west side of the Sibg River, www.biquge.info defenders faced German attacks from three directions: it was separated from Poland by a narrow canal. Originally, Terespol Gate referred to the gate leading from the central fortress to the Terespil Fortress, but since the previous year, this name has been given to the Terespil Fortress as the "West Gate" facing Poland, and the original Terespol Gate has been renamed the West Gate.

The 132nd Separate Battalion of the NKVD troops was holding out in front of the dam on the southern side of the Terespol Fortress, which was now the only "land passage" to Poland in the entire fortress, and was under attack by the German infantry!

Within a quarter of an hour of the start of the battle, the 132nd separate battalion suffered a quarter of casualties, but the dam was still in their own hands! There are no explosives planted here, only flesh and steel can be used to stop the crazy attack of the German army! The soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were so good that they did not let the Germans rush through the dam even a single step!

The commander of the 132nd battalion received a call from the fortress headquarters and asked the fortress to blow up the embankment, but the fortress artillery could not shell such a close target!

"You must hold on, even if you use people to fill it, you must hold on! Be sure to hold on for another hour! Our bombers will bomb the levee in an hour! The sappers have gone to your aid, and they will have a way! ”

The command's order could not be disobeyed, and the 132nd Battalion could only hold its position and engage in a war of attrition against the Germans at any cost. A platoon of sappers arrived at the position of the 132 battalion a few minutes later, and the comrades sappers carried boxes of explosives on their backs!

"Give us fire cover! Our people went down to the river to blow up the embankment! ”

In order to create conditions for the sappers, the whole battalion of people who could participate in the battle frantically fired at the German positions on the opposite bank, and the mortar units of the Terespil fortress also aimed their guns at the German positions on the opposite side of the canal to suppress the shelling, and red flames continued to appear on the opposite bank.

After 10 minutes, the daredevils braved the German machine-gun fire and jumped into the water, and after sacrificing more than a dozen sappers, the explosives blew up three steel water barriers, and a gap of more than ten meters wide appeared in the canal, and the German offensive was temporarily contained!

"The sappers have blown up the water gate, and we will always stick to this place, and we will not take half a step back until we fight to the last man!" After receiving the report of the 132nd battalion, Zavrilov was able to put down a big stone in his heart, at least before noon today, the entire fortress will be monolithic!

Volkovysk Airport, the central airfield where the 109th Regiment is located, 4:03.

The air defense sirens sounded violently, and the pilots of the 109th Regiment had long been accustomed to this, jumping up from their beds and rushing to their landlines as fast as they could, dressing as they ran.

Sergey put on his flight jacket only after getting into the cockpit of his landline, and the mechanic on duty helped him put on a parachute. Start the engine, and then hear a report on the situation of the tower in the headset - Sergey, like his pilots, does not know what the situation is, but as long as there is an air defense alarm, starting the plane is the first place, this is an iron rule, and the situation can be known in the intercom!

"The Germans are on the offensive, on all fronts! Big Eyes reports a huge fleet approaching the border again, at a height of 4000! The headset repeatedly shouted the voice of the officer on duty, without saying that there was any order from above.

But this was enough, there was no time to ask for instructions, the 109th regiment was waiting for this day, and all the pilots understood that the war had finally broken out!

"I'm Sergey! All fighters of the regiment take off! With a frontal width of 50 km, volley the Germans in squadrons, shoot down any target you find, and shoot if you spot a German crossing on the Nyamunas River! ”

"For the sake of the Soviets, the Stalin Eagle is fearless!"

The pilots already knew that their opponent was the elite German Second Air Force, and some time ago there were losses in small fights, but in general, the 109th Regiment still had the advantage of small-scale air battles. But this time it will be different, it will be a group operation in the style of the Haraha River, and there will be "no end" - the strength of the Luftwaffe is not comparable to that of Little Japan!

The lager fighters at the three airfields took off with a roar, and after hurriedly forming in the air, they flew to the west - Sergei did not pay attention to the red signal flares that were raised at the airfields, which represented the "sortie", and he had the final say in the sky!

A fiery red warhawk, 61 red stars on the side of the cockpit illuminate the night sky that is about to dawn! All around were their own planes, and the geese echelon formed in a continuous formation of twin planes followed closely behind Sergei's twin fuselages. All 126 fighters of the regiment in combat readiness were dispatched, and the boys wanted to prove their loyalty to the Motherland and the Soviets with the blood of the enemy!

The sky behind him gradually brightened, the black night sky turned a deep blue, and from the air you could see an explosion on the ground, it was the Germans shelling, and the border line was in front of you.

"Huge fleet at 10 o'clock! Height 4,000! "There was a clear call in the headset, and I don't know whose eyes were so good. Looking along the 10 o'clock direction, a formation of planes like a big bag is slowly moving eastward!

"Attention all, take the squadron as a unit, hit the bombers first! Comrades, I am invincible! Knock the Germans down! Free Attack! With that, he swung the joystick and turned to the left, and the group of planes behind him began to slowly spread out, and pounced on the German group at high speed.

The Germans had also discovered that the planes of the 109th Regiment - a formation of more than a hundred fighters were also huge in the eyes of the opponents, and these Soviet fighters could be identified at a very long distance - the paint was eye-catching, it was the fighter unit that caused headaches!

The Germans who fought with the 109th regiment knew that it was a group of wolf-like opponents, especially the fiery red fighter, which simply came out of hell!

In an instant, two huge machine ** weaved together, black ballistics and red tracer bullets shot out in the air, and planes continued to explode and fall!

Sergei knew that breaking up the German bomber formation was the first priority, and he and his wingman dived towards the German twin-engine bomber formation at the first impact, and two Junkers 88 volleys exploded with a point shot from 300 meters away!

I saw the German Messersmit 109 coming, a whole four! A beautiful double S-shaped jump, turning the plane behind the Germans upside down, without looking at the sights at all, relying on intuition to press the machine gun firing button - the intensive burst fire accurately hit the fuselage of the German plane, and the fuselage of the 109 was like a broken sack!

As soon as the Germans saw the legendary "red ** ghost" behind them in a daze, they completely lost the confidence to sneak attack just now, and the three 109s immediately entered the dive, wanting to get rid of the life-urging ghosts behind.

The wingman Kozhdub was behind Sergei on the right side, following the rhythm of the regiment commander closely, only a little slower - it was these tenths of a second that allowed the young man to take a big advantage: a Messersmit 109 that was about to enter the dive was entering his corner, saying that it was too late and fast, and the machine gun fired a salvo, and a point shot of 0.5 seconds made the German plane in front of him bloom in the air!

At close range, Dub has already practiced the ability not to use sights with the regiment commander, and he can grasp the timing of shooting by instinctive reflection, and the 109th regiment with such skills has a few dozen!

"Ivan, attack bomber, attack bomber!" Sergei did not pursue the German fighters, but rushed to the bomber group in a sharp angle.

Juncker's machine gun shooter was horrified to see the battle that had just taken place on the side, that is, two Soviet fighters had defeated four 109 raids in an instant, and now the fiery red fighter was coming towards him!

The frantic machine-gun fire did not withstand Sergei, the red rag swayed and rushed towards Juncker, and the hearts of the German shooters reached their throats! I clearly saw the Russians firing, the muzzle of the gun flashed tongues of fire, the plane of his own crackled sound, the engine of the left wing began to catch fire, and the Russian plane flipped away.

At the moment when the fiery red plane flipped over, the German machine gunner, who was surprised to find that he was fine, saw the strange pattern on the side of the red fighter - it was a totem that had never been seen before, and what was even more terrifying was that the red fighter plane was covered with dense red stars!

The machine gun shooter lost his mind, the plane had already begun to fall, and the captain gave the command to parachute! The moment he jumped out of the cabin and the parachute opened, he saw the red rager firing right next to him - another Junkers 88 was shot down, but his counterparts on that plane were not as lucky as themselves: it exploded in the air!

"Devil!"

The "Red ** Ghost" continued to harvest the lives of the Germans, and Sergei ran out of ammunition after shooting down the seventh personal result of the day!

"Ivan, I'm out of ammunition, how are you?"

"I'm almost out of the regiment commander, and I've killed three of them!"

After looking left and right, the battle in the air continued, but the battle airspace was far away. Looking down, there is a north-south river on the ground, and there are dense troops crossing the river, and such ferries are all along the river!

There were not many Red Army garrisons in this area, and more than a dozen kilometers to the east - Sergei knew that there was a whole army group that had been deployed there, and the Germans were about to hit the wall! By the time the army group attacked, it would not be so comfortable for these Germans who had crossed the Nyamunas River to return to Poland!

Sergei shook his hand and motioned to Kozhdub to return home with him as soon as he arrived - he had to hurry back to refuel and reload, the brutal battle had just begun.

"Airport, airport, I'm Sergey! There are multiple crossings on the Nyamunas River, and the Germans are crossing the river! The Germans are crossing the river!
