Chapter 141: Recasting Glory (9)
After Otto had finished firing five magazines, he shouted and threw the grenade, and of course everyone understood what their captain meant, and put the pull ring of the grenade that had been prepared long ago on his fingers, and then threw it vigorously, and the grenade drew a perfect, death arc and flew into the lying crowd of Polish troops.
"One, two...... Four. ”
"Boom...... Boom...... Boom ......"
The explosions continued one after another, and with such a dense number of grenades, even if those Polish soldiers lay down on the road, they could not escape the fate of being blown up and their flesh and blood flying.
"Ahh!!hh ……”
The bombed, missing arms and legs, and the undead Polish army was crying wolf howling there, but who dared to save them.
"Retreat ......"
After Otto threw the grenade, he quickly crawled towards the way he came, and the covering retreat group in the distance had already prepared to respond, and the muzzle of the black hole was pointed at the place where the fire was soaring.
Otto and they retreated a long way, the Polish army was still in chaos, and they did not wake up from the chaos at all, so it was difficult for Otto to take care of those Polish troops, whether they pursued or not, what Otto had to do now was to lay a second "trap".
The Polish army was in chaos for more than 20 minutes, but they still did not dare to continue to advance, but sent a search force to guard and patrol the surroundings to make sure that there was no ambush advancing, and then the speed of the Polish army became a snail.
For nearly forty minutes, the Polish troops who were preparing to attack were sure that there was no ambush before continuing to advance.
This "trap" set by Otto was not to arrange "pocket arrays" on both sides of the road, but to leave the road far away and intersperse it with the rear of the Polish army.
After more than 20 minutes, these Polish troops who were preparing to attack finally advanced two or three kilometers, and this distance was completely possible to erect artillery, because at night, it was necessary to go to the weakness of the varsity artillery, and the caliber of these Polish artillery did not exceed 75 mm, and they were all infantry guns, and the range was not far, so the Polish army erected the artillery not far from the LMG oil and gas field.
The Polish army, which had been in charge once, was much more cautious now, sending a large number of sentries to reconnoitre, and the large force followed behind the scouts from a distance.
But they had not gone far when fierce gunfire rang out around their artillery position, and soon there were incessant explosions, which were terrifying, and the violent explosions blew up one cannon after another, and it seemed that those shells had been killed, and only in this way could they have such great power.
Of course, it was a good thing that Otto did with the mobile squadron, the artillery garrison of the Polish army was not their opponent at all, and it was solved by dividing five by two, and the rest was to blow up the artillery of the Polish army, this job is a compulsory skill for every "storm commando", and it is just a piece of cake.
The earth-shattering explosion panicked the Polish infantry who had just set off to attack, and why did the Germans appear behind their buttocks and end up their artillery positions. Under these circumstances, the two Polish infantry regiments dared to attack, and hurriedly retreated, began to build fortifications on the spot, dug trenches, and waited for the arrival of follow-up troops.
The stupid Polish infantry commander, commanding two Polish infantry regiments, numbering nearly five thousand, was actually disturbed by Otto's two sneak attacks, and they retreated and waited for the large troops, the idea was good, because the arrival of the large troops was also within an hour or two, but they had no chance.
The reason is very simple, that is, the team of armored vehicles led by Vincent came, and half an hour later, the Polish troops of those two regiments did not wait for their own large forces, but German reinforcements arrived first.
Vincent, who arrived at the LMG oil and gas field, was the first to summon Otto, the captain of the "storm commando", because Vincent did not know the situation of the Polish army on the opposite side, so he did not dare to rashly launch an attack.
"Hey! Hitler, Storm Commando Brigade Captain Otto came to report. ”
"Salute."
Vincent returned a military salute to Otto, and without ink, he asked directly:
"Captain Otto, tell me about the situation of the Polish army on the other side."
Otto is also a person who does not like to drag mud and water, and hurriedly introduced it to Major General Vincent.
"Report to the general, there are about two infantry regiments of the Polish army on the opposite side, with a strength of about five thousand, and the artillery has been terminated by us, but they definitely have other anti-tank guns, and there are quite a few of them, and now they have built a huge circular defensive field position about three kilometers in front of us."
"Oh"
Vincent sighed, and did not continue to ask, but fell into deep thought, it is good to be a front-line commander under Zhang Jun, and the task is entrusted to you - to protect the LMG oil and gas field, as for how to fight, how big, the commander of the front line has an idea. This command mode has great advantages, and it can give full play to the subjective initiative of the front-line commanders, and of course, it is also a great test of the tactical command ability of the front-line commanders. As long as the commander of this front line matures, the role will also be very huge.
Vincent thought for about five minutes before he began to give orders to Otto:
"Captain Otto, your men will defend these oil wells, and at the same time I will send twenty armored vehicles to support you, I will arrange the rest of the armored vehicles on both sides of the Polish defensive position, but we will not attack now, because our armored vehicles can not withstand the 37 mm or 50 mm anti-tank guns of the Polish army, that is undoubtedly a joke with the lives of soldiers, I will not do such stupid things, what I need is to take my soldiers and use a small amount of money to win, Instead of making this senseless sacrifice without losing it. ”
"Understood, General."
"Then go on your mission."
The Polish army did not dare to come out now, as long as they desperately dug field fortifications, they were waiting for reinforcements to arrive, Vincent was also waiting for the arrival of Rommel's tanks, and both sides were nervously preparing for the upcoming big battle.
At about half past three o'clock in the morning, there was a violent tremor on the ground, and both the Polish and German troops put their ears to the ground to listen to which direction the sound of the vibration came from.
On the German side there are 58-ton copycat Type 99 tanks, while on the Polish side there are trucks and other vehicles, even if the Polish army has tanks, the number is very rare, how can it be compared with Rommel's armored division.
The Polish troops in the circular position had already sent a telegram to the rear, and the German troops defending a battalion of the LMG oil and gas fields had been reinforced by about 100 taels of tanks or armored vehicles, so they did not dare to attack rashly, and now they have built a circular field fortification with a diameter of about three kilometers.
The commander-in-chief of the Polish army was Lieutenant General Kruko, and when Kruko received the president's order, he couldn't believe his eyes, and the president actually ordered the troops of four divisions of Narrell to attack the German troops who attacked the LMG oil and gas fields. Since the Germans are a sneak attack, why don't they send more troops, no more than one regiment, and use four divisions and 80,000 troops? This meant abandoning all the defenses of Lublin, and Kruko was puzzled, but he faithfully fulfilled his duty as a soldier.
Of course, Kruko will not understand what the Polish president means, the Polish president is breaking everything and breaking everything, because the Polish president has realized that the destruction of Poland is an impossible fact to be reversed, and has found that the German army has attacked and occupied Poland's largest oil and gas field LMG, which is a very large oil field, if the German army has this oil and gas field, then the German army's war potential will be unprecedentedly increased, and the time for Poland's liberation will be postponed indefinitely, this is the problem that the Polish president thinks about at the national level, Certainly not something that Kruko could understand. I have to say that the Polish president can't fight a war, and his strategic vision is still good.
While mobilizing troops, Kruko ordered the Polish army close to the LMG oil and gas field to set off immediately and attack the LMG oil and gas field, but soon the news of the defeat in front came, which did not make Kruko nervous, and continued to order the follow-up troops to advance quickly to the LMG oil and gas field, but the two subsequent infantry regiments were still attacked by the Germans and stopped the attack, and the Germans received tank or armor reinforcements, so Kruko did not rashly order his troops to attack, They can only wait for their troops to arrive and launch a full-scale attack.
Kluko's troops moved quickly, and the soldiers were eager to defend their homeland, but the huge difference in weapons between the Polish army and the German army was really an insurmountable chasm.
Soon an urgent telegram came from the front, reporting that about a German armored division was coming to reinforce it, and Kruko did not dare to be careless, although Kruko had not competed with the German armored division since the beginning of the war, but the power of the German armored division Kruko had heard of it.
Kruko hurriedly took out the military map in his command car and studied it. At this time, Kluko was about 20 kilometers away from the LMH oil and gas field, and the range of the Polish army's artillery could not reach the LMG oil field, so it had to continue to advance at least five kilometers, but its own tens of thousands of troops had a marching speed of five kilometers per hour, and after their troops advanced five kilometers, the German armor was afraid that it would be killed in front of them.
Now Kruko has to make a choice, this is a decision related to the life and death of the troops, and he can't make a decision casually, but the current situation is so dangerous that Kruko can't help but think more, and the crisis situation forces Kruko to come up with a choice as soon as possible.
"Snap" Kruko broke the pencil in his hand and threw it directly on the ground.
"Order, the cavalry units and artillery units immediately advance five kilometers, and then urgently build field ring fortifications there, and when all the cavalry arrives at the place, all dismount and dig trenches, participate in the battle as infantry, and the infantry divisions build fortifications on the spot."
Kruko's order was to have the cavalry and artillery rush to the front, and then build a ring of fortifications, so that artillery could be erected to bombard the LMG oil and gas fields, and the two infantry regiments in front were their artillery observations...... (To be continued.) )
