Chapter 472: Encirclement and Annihilation (I)
In such a situation, why can't Manstein take a strategic risk, because this risk is worth taking, and success can buy Germany enough time, even if it fails, Manstein will only lose more than 700,000 Soviet troops who encircled and annihilated Bryansk. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since the decision was made, Manstein did not hesitate, and soon issued an order to the troops for a "lightning assault", and Manstein asked the troops to organize forces to use the fastest speed and the most fierce attack to break through the Soviet defense line with lightning, directly attack Bryansk, and then complete the encirclement of the Ryansk area.
Soon, Hausser received an order to attack Manstein, this time with two gears of armor and three infantry to attack on the left flank, and Hausser, the commander of the skeleton division, served as the commander-in-chief of the enemy on the left flank.
We must not ignore the tremendous role of this "former enemy's command post," and only they know the situation on the front line best, and they can react at the first time, adjust their deployment, and correct their mistakes.
If the front-line commander had to wait for the order of the general command for everything, then there would be no trace of the fleeting fighter plane.
If this is done, Manstein's power will be infinitely increased, but the troops' ability to react and adapt to changes will also be greatly reduced, and fighting a war cannot rely on orders alone, but also needs the unified and coordinated command ability of the "former enemy command", and Hausser is precisely the best tactical commander in this regard.
As a matter of fact, the practical experience of later generations has also proved that the advantages and role of setting up a "former enemy command center" on the front line are very great, and it can greatly enhance the troops' ability to react and adapt to changes, and can also make corresponding adjustments in light of the battlefield situation, which often determines the outcome of a campaign.
After receiving the order of the commander-in-chief Manstein, Hausser did not immediately order the troops to attack, but stood in front of the sand table and thought carefully, as the "former enemy commander" Hausser must see whether the orders of the general command are suitable for execution, which also shows that Hausser has independent thinking, and is definitely not the kind of blind and mediocre commander.
Hausser pondered for a moment on the side of the sandbox, gestured for a moment, then nodded, and began to give the order to attack.
The good habit of our Führer not to skip the command level has become popular in the German army in an all-round way, and basically he will not skip the command of the troops, and the bald head of the later generations will kill many Central Army troops by skipping the level of blind command.
Manstein, of course, was not stupid, and his strategic order was given to the "command post of the former enemy", and then the commander of the former enemy, Hausser, decided on the specific implementation plan.
Since ancient times, it has been a taboo to skip the command, and the general command does not understand the situation at the front line, and thinks it is a brilliant plan that shocks the world, and the result is that it is another thing to use it on the front line, and the result is often the loss of the division and the humiliation of the country, and the defeat and death of the army.
"Order the tank assault groups of the Skeleton Division and the Imperial Division to attack as soon as they are replenished," the rest of the troops are responsible for following up and expanding the breach, while crushing the enemy forces on the left and right flanks, and ensuring the safety of our transport convoys.
This kind of long-distance assault, and deep into the enemy's interior, the strategic materials of the army are very important, it can be said that it is a major event related to the life and death of the troops, the knights of the Bryansk region are not without combat power, and the dog jumps the wall when he is in a hurry!
Reinhardt, as commander of the SS panzer assault group, commanded the tanks and armoured vehicles of two SS panzer divisions, and immediately after receiving Hausser's order, he ordered his tank assault group to advance.
Now there are still dozens of kilometers away from the Soviet defense line, so there is no need to marshall, the 1614 tank is Reinhardt's command tank, and Major General Reinhardt on the turret is carefully observing with a headset around his neck and a telescope in his hand.
As soon as Reinhardt's tank cluster departed, the SS aviation divisions also began to make large-scale sorties, because the Soviet Air Force seemed to have suddenly abandoned the Bryansk region, and in the past half a month, almost no Soviet planes have come to the Bryansk area, except for the occasional Soviet reconnaissance plane.
Since there was no threat from the Soviet Air Force in the Bryansk region, Manstein asked Amini to use a few "BF109s" as a guard, and the rest of the planes carried aerial bombs to bomb the Soviet lines.
"BF109" can also carry two 500-kilogram aerial bombs, but for Amini, who treats "BF109" as a baby, if a "BF109" is shot down because of low-altitude bombing, this will undoubtedly cost Amini's life, which is more distressing than dying.
So Amini gave a special order to every "BF109" pilot, no one can bomb at low altitude, the minimum bombing altitude of "BF109" is more than 3,000 meters, whoever is shot down by Soviet aviation fire because of low-altitude bombing, Amini swears that he will not spare that kid.
Precision bombing is what JU89 should do, and coverage bombing is what horizontal bombers should do, so that BF109 can carry aerial bombs, which will also play a role in helping the uprising, and the actual significance is not great.
A huge group of planes swept over Reinhardt, they roared and rushed to the Soviet position, and in an instant countless aerial bombs fell from the sky, of course, the Soviet artillery was the first to suffer, and one cannon was blown into the air by heavy aerial bombs.
When the cannon fell to the ground, it was already a scattered part, the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns of the Soviet army, which were also colored against the planes in the air.
"Bumper ......" that's anti-aircraft guns firing, "da-da......" this is the sound of anti-aircraft machine guns, "boom ......" this is the sound of aerial bombs. "Boom ......" This is the sound of various ammunition flying.
All kinds of voices were intertwined with the Soviet position, and the whole position was filled with gunsmoke, and huge craters were piled up, like craters on the surface of the moon, dense and irregular.
"Woooooooooo......oo Boom ......"
A JU87 dive bomber dived down against an aviation anti-aircraft gun, and the shooter of which anti-aircraft gun also held a mortal mentality and fired fiercely at the JU87 that dived down in the air.
"Bumper ...... The hot eggshells ejected from the anti-aircraft guns ...... fell to the ground continuously, and the screams of "woo woo woo ......" ju87 were getting closer and closer, and the kind of call that was almost like death was indeed terrifying.
But which anti-aircraft gun, witnessing the tragic fate of several guns around him, as well as the broken body of his comrade-in-arms, made up his mind to die with this German plane.
"Woo woo woo...... Flutter"
……
Beatrich, the commander of Army Group Center, leaned out half of the top of tank No. 4 and looked at the battlefield in front of him, where the wreckage of more than a hundred tanks lay in front of him irregularly, and the destroyed tanks were only a few residues, and the tanks that were not killed were billowing smoke, and what was waiting for them was also a martyrdom, and finally turned into steel slag, which would soon disappear into the grass of the Soviet plain.
"All famous guns, salute ......"
"Dada...... Flutter ...... Da Da ......"
