Anderson, who had no choice, could only ask the division headquarters to immediately replenish the troops and ammunition, and these replenished people came to repair and strengthen the fortifications. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the first day of the large-scale offensive, all the defensive lines were attacked by the Soviet army in turn, and Vasilevsky, relying on his advantage of having a large number of men and unlimited supplies, was to fight a war of attrition and fatigue with the well-equipped German army, and Steiner really had no good way to think of it.

The casualty statistics were quickly sent to Steiner, and on the first day of the Soviet offensive, the defenders of Koivsk lost more than 3,000 killed and more than 2,000 seriously wounded, not counting minor injuries, and on the first day Steiner was reduced to more than 5,000 people.

The Soviet army suffered no less than 20,000 or 30,000 casualties, but according to this level of casualties, Steiner could only hold out for ten days at most, and if General Guderian had not annihilated the Soviet army in Petrovsk by that time, he could only end up with the destruction of the entire army.

On the first day, Steiner did not use his two armored divisions, and all the artillery, Steiner was observing the tactics of the other side, although the casualties were heavy today, but without the support of tanks and large-caliber artillery, the Germans still held the defensive line, and let Steiner know the opponent's methods thoroughly.

The Soviet army attacked from 6 o'clock in the morning to 23 o'clock in the evening, a full eighteen hours, Steiner knew that his defensive infantry had reached the limit of physical fitness, during the day the Soviet army had air superiority, Steiner's tanks and artillery could not move, could only hide in the city, now that the Soviet army has collected troops and returned to the camp, how can Steiner only be beaten and not fight back!

It is not Steiner's character to only be beaten and not to return the hand, during the day the Soviet army has aircraft support, and its own tanks cannot move, but at night you always have no aircraft support, and at night the Soviet artillery group fire wants to cover the charging armored clusters, with the Soviet army's half-tank artillery technology, you can't think about it.

"Order, the Imperial Panzer Division will attack from the east, and the Skeleton Panzer Division will attack from the southeast, and after breaking through the Soviet defense line, they will converge in the southeast, and the purpose of this operation is to completely destroy the Soviet army in the southeast.

Note that the maximum distance of the assault cannot exceed fifty kilometers, and each armored division needs to be equipped with a thousand sandbag trucks in addition to tanks, as a reminder, carry more sandbags and prepare to fill the anti-tank trenches of the Soviet army. ”

From 23 p.m. to 6 a.m., Steiner's attack lasted only six hours. The total strength of the two SS panzer divisions was only more than 30,000 people, and it was impossible to completely encircle the Soviet troops in the southeast.

The SS Reich Panzer Division has been watching other units fight these days, and their hands have long been itchy, and now the commander-in-chief has ordered the battle, which is high morale.

At this time, Bitrich was already the commander of the SS Reich division, and Bitrich, having received the order, immediately began to deploy combat duty.

The battle-hardened Bitrich had already done all the preparations, and now that the order came, Bitrich only needed to mobilize the hidden tanks and sandbag trucks.

The SS Reich Panzer Division was assembling, and Steiner gave them time to attack in an hour, but it didn't take long, and after half an hour everyone was basically there. Steiner began to order his own artillery units to fire heavily at the positions of the Soviet Southern Line.

The entire position of the Soviet army suddenly turned red, and when Steiner's ammunition was exhausted, there was no place to resupply, and only a short ten minutes of artillery bombardment was carried out, and then all the artillery was replaced with incendiary bombs, and the Soviet position was ablaze with skyrocketing fire.

Steiner fired incendiary bombs, of course, he also wanted his armored assault group to see clearly the situation of the Soviet positions without turning on the lights, and the small number of incendiary bombs could only pray for the effect of lighting, and the Soviet troops burned to death had little effect on the battle.

"Offensive ......"

Bitrich's order was brief, and the SS Reich Panzer Division, which could be said to have been trained by Bitrich, contained 2,000 battle-hardened German veterans, who were the core and backbone of the force.

Bitrich can proudly declare to everyone that his panzer division, no worse than the German panzer division, now is the time to test the unit that Bitrich has trained.

All the units of the Soviet army attacked all day, and they were also very tired, but they attacked in turns and had plenty of time to rest.

In fact, once people go to the battlefield, they are highly nervous, that is, it is very tiring not to fight. The continuous sound of gunfire also made it difficult for the Soviets to sleep, and finally the fighting stopped, and the Germans' shells fell like a storm.

At that time, there were countless Soviet troops who were blown to pieces in their sleep, and the Soviet army's fortifications were also very rough, which was the character of Lao Maozi, and now he finally suffered the bitter fruit.

This is not over, after the German artillery bombardment, a large number of incendiary bombs came over, originally the Soviet fortifications were built of logs, and now the entire position was burned, and countless Soviet soldiers were splashed by the liquid after the explosion of the incendiary bombs, so that the whole body was on fire, in this case, even if his comrades wanted to save him, it was impossible to end his life with one shot, so as not to endure the boundless pain.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

The shaking of the ground and the roar of tanks were heard again, and the German tank assault group began to attack, and the positions of the Soviet troops in the dark were suddenly panicked. The Soviet officers quickly gathered their soldiers and at the same time looked for the anti-tank guns that had not been destroyed by the shelling, and the tanks that had not been destroyed also hurriedly started to move.

"Boom, boom...... Boom ......"

The Soviet artillery began to counterattack the German artillery positions, and the German artillery immediately shifted their positions after the firing, and the Soviet artillery counterattack was doomed to be ineffective.

After more than ten minutes, Bitrich's armored division charged to the side of the Soviet anti-tank trench, and behind it was the Soviet position, and the Soviet troops above the position could not see the situation on the side of the anti-tank trench clearly, so they could only shoot blindly.

Bitrich knew that his armored division must move as soon as possible, otherwise it would be a live target for Soviet artillery fire, and Bitrich's method was very simple and rude, directly ordering the trucks transporting sandbags to rush directly into the anti-tank trenches, and fifty or sixty sandbag trucks could definitely fill in more than twenty or thirty passages.

"Snort...... Sneer......"

The Soviets finally reacted and began firing flares, but Bitrich had already begun to direct the tanks to charge over the trenches and towards their positions.

“…… Click...... Click...... Boom ......"
