In this way, the Soviet Union will have enough time to arm itself, finally win the final victory, and wait for the changes in the international situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Stalin accepted the advice of General Vasilevsky and asked General Vasilevsky to fully organize the arming of Moscow.

However, an unexpected situation appeared, and Germany suddenly sent 100,000 troops with a large amount of war materials to Petrovsk, the southern gate of the Soviet capital, Petrovsk.

As long as the Germans firmly occupied Kovsk, they could cut off all the supply lines in Petrovsk, and hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops in Petrovsk would be wiped out.

In the worst case, the Germans built an airfield in Kovsk, so that the Luftwaffe could bomb the Soviet Union's Eurasian Railway and the Kharkiv industrial region at any time.

This would be tantamount to completely cutting off Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, from the Far East, and the American aid delivered from the Eurasian railway would not reach Moscow.

If this situation arises, the loss of the capital of the Soviet Union is inevitable, and Stalin did not understand strategy, but of course he also saw the sinister intentions of the German army, and hurriedly dispatched his most capable and capable general -- General Vasilevsky.

After receiving Stalin's order, General Vasilevsky hurriedly dispatched troops and advanced to Kovsk, and the importance of Kovsk was of course well known to General Vasilevsky.

It can be said that Kovsk at this time is a city related to the life and death of the Soviet Union, and these German troops must be eliminated as soon as possible, even if countless soldiers are sacrificed.

However, General Vasilevsky did not blindly use troops, but after carefully analyzing some of the situation of the German army in Kovsk, he suggested that Stalin put down his face, lower his stature, abandon political differences, and immediately send high-ranking officials to visit Britain and the United States, so that Britain and the United States could immediately open up a second battlefield.

In June 1941, Stalin asked Churchill and Roosevelt to open a second theater in Western Europe and carry out a strategic flanking attack on Germany, so as to relieve the enormous pressure on the Soviet Union caused by millions of German troops.

However, at this time, the United States had not yet entered the war, and Britain had not recovered from several setbacks, and was simply unable to carry out a large-scale landing war in Western Europe.

Churchill believed that launching a landing operation at this time was purely an act of seeking death, and he euphemistically accepted Stalin's request, and Churchill replied to Stalin:

"Britain is actively preparing for war, and it will take 1943 to launch a landing operation."

When Stalin received Churchill's telegram, he had no choice but to angrily smash a few teacups. Churchill wasn't a fool! Germany is now in the prime of its war, how could he launch a landing operation at this time, Churchill was kicked in the head by a donkey again.

Roosevelt could not agree to Stalin's request for the second battlefield, the United States did not enter the war at this time, and the troop bill would not be passed in Congress at all, and Stalin could only ask Eisenhower to transport all the weapons and equipment to the Soviet Union from five batches to the Soviet Union.

Stalin's request for Britain and the United States to open a second battlefield ended in vain, and both Britain and the United States were waiting for Germany and the Soviet Union to lose each other! It is okay to ask for weapons and equipment, but it is absolutely impossible to send troops to fight.

The best-case scenario would be for the last German soldier to kill the last Soviet soldier, and then Britain and the United States would send one soldier from each country to eliminate the only remaining German soldier, so that Britain and the United States could rightfully divide the fruits of victory, which of course was only the good wishes of the imperialist countries.

……

Vasilevsky felt that it was impossible to quickly destroy the German army in Kovsk with infantry and junk tanks, so he ordered several anti-tank trenches to be dug and surrounded the whole of Kovsk, and then stormed on all sides.

Steiner was still reinforcing his defensive positions, and of course the Soviets were building various fortifications, neither side attacked the other, and only the German air force occasionally sent planes out to bomb the Soviet lines.

Steiner's various supplies are strategic, that is not to be wasted at all, as long as the Soviets do not attack themselves, Steiner will not take the initiative to attack, and now the bombing of the Soviet Union's railway junction on the Eurasian demarcation line and the Kharkiv industrial zone is Steiner's focus.

Vasilevsky had two tank corps in his hands, equipped with all Sherman tanks, with a total of more than 1,000 units, and another 1,000 "Bazooka" anti-tank rocket launchers, with even more artillery, with a total of about 3,000 vehicles.

There are also quite a few planes specially allocated to Vasilevsky, about 500 of them, including the British Spitfire and the American P51 Mustang.

These piston planes are the top existence of piston aircraft, and they have the power to fight with German aircraft, but the quality of the pilots of the Soviet army is much worse than that of the German army.

On June 22, 1941, Koshsk officially began, and the German army began to withstand the first attack of the Soviet Union relying on the fortifications arranged in Kovsk, the first of course was the air force, Vasilevsky first sent his own air force to launch the first round of air raids on the city of Kovsk.

Vasilevsky sent more than five hundred fighters at once, while the Germans had only two aviation regiments of "BF109".

Even if the Luftwaffe had the advantage of pilot quality, so many enemy planes pressed all at once, which was enough for Steiner to be extremely nervous, but fortunately, Steiner carried radar, and the Soviet plane was detected more than 100 kilometers away, and the German plane was not destroyed on the ground.

"Woo woo woo ......"

A terrible air raid siren sounded over the city of Kovsk, and Smith, who had now been promoted to the rank of major, led a brigade of "BF109", and as soon as the air raid sirens sounded, Smith ran quickly towards the plane.

These pilots are on duty 24 hours a day, and they will immediately board the plane to fight if there is a situation.

The conning tower's announcements were loud, amplified by loudspeakers, and could be heard by half the city:

"The enemy aircraft group from the southeast, in large numbers, estimated at the size of three aviation regiments, all aircraft immediately took off for operation, repeating ......

Smith was listening to the tower briefing as he ran, and after the first briefing, Smith had already run to his car, and the ground crew had already prepared ladders and were just waiting for the pilots to board the plane.

Smith was very agile, he quickly climbed into his plane, then started his plane, began to taxi, and gradually increased the throttle, and the faster and faster plane soon took off.

Smith's brigade of forty "BF109s" also followed the group in a southeasterly direction. According to the tower's report, Smith's more than 300 planes needed to deal with more than 500 Soviet planes.

The German radar detection distance was only more than 100 kilometers, and for the aircraft traveling on the opposite side, it was almost in the blink of an eye, Smith kept in touch with the tower, and the altitude and route of the Soviet aircraft Smith was clear.

"The height of the Soviet aircraft is six thousand."

"Understood, all the brothers lifted the plane to an altitude of eight thousand meters."

"Buzz...... Buzz ......"

"Enemy aircraft spotted, below."

"Attack ...... with me" (To be continued.) )
