Song Mingxuan turned around and looked at the city defense map again, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "I've been looking at the map for three days, but I still can't find a way to break through with confidence." I don't know if General Chuikov has any good advice. ”

Hearing Song Mingxuan's words, Cui Kefu stood up and looked at the map, and said in a firm tone: "The enemy is very tightly surrounded, and there is indeed no road to break through, but it doesn't matter if there is no road, we can create one by ourselves." ”

Listening to Cui Kefu's words, Song Mingxuan turned his head sharply, glared at Cui Kefu and said, "The general means ......"

Chuikov straightened up and said: "Based on the battles of these days, I have found that the enemy's front in the north is blocked by the Pleseswamp in the north, and the transportation of supplies is inconvenient, so the defensive strength in that direction is relatively weak. I think it would be possible to send a feint to the south to attract the attention of the Axis troops, and then the main forces would break through from the Pleschet swamps. ”

Song Mingxuan nodded thoughtfully and said, "This is indeed a solution, but in this way, the troops who feint will definitely die." ”

Chuikov said: "No, this mission is absolutely dead, this feint mission is up to me, let my Cossack troops stay behind to cover you." ”

Song Mingxuan raised his head violently and said, "No, you lead the team to evacuate, and I will stay to cover." "The soldiers of these two different countries have formed a deep battlefield friendship in twenty days of fighting side by side, and at this moment they both hope that the other will leave alive.

Chuikov shook his head and said: "Don't fight, the Pleseswamp is not easy, I was scratched by a shell the day before yesterday, and it was difficult to pass there." Since you can't survive, it's better to stay here and create a way for you to live. Not only me, but I think all the wounded should stay, and I only hope that you will be able to take the remaining Cossack army out of the army, and also take out some of it, so that I can give an explanation to His Majesty. ”

Song Mingxuan's body shook when he heard this, he knew that Cui Kefu was right, but his feelings did not allow him to do so. Seeing Song Mingxuan's hesitation, Cui Kefu said: "Don't hesitate any longer, you are not alone, you also have to think about thousands of subordinates, in order to be able to rescue more soldiers, we must make the most correct choice." ”

Song Mingxuan's body shook again, he slowly raised his head, stared at Cui Kefu with his blood-red eyes for half a minute, and then slowly nodded and said, "Okay, I will lead the team to retreat, I hope you can survive." ”

A smile appeared on Cui Kefu's haggard face: "Okay, if I can survive, you want to invite me to the main store of Yixian Lou in the Chinese Empire to have a big meal, I have always wanted to eat an authentic Chinese meal." ”

Song Mingxuan smiled reluctantly and said, "Okay, if you can survive, when the war is over, I will definitely invite you to a big meal." No, I'll treat you to eat for a month. ”

"This is what you said, but you are not allowed to go back, if you eat for a month, I'm afraid I can eat you bankrupt." Chuikov's eyebrows furrowed, as if he had no idea how dangerous the task he was about to take on was.

Song Mingxuan knew that he could not hesitate in the slightest in the midst of the encirclement of the enemy, and since he had already made a decision, the two immediately began to arrange the retreat. At eight o'clock in the evening, the NATO allies had eaten their last meal in Minsk, and at ten o'clock in the evening, Chuikov, with 40,000 wounded soldiers who could barely fight, and 20,000 Cossack soldiers who had volunteered to stay, drove all the tanks, personnel carriers and self-propelled guns, and launched a sudden charge towards the Axis positions.

All the soldiers knew that they were going to die, and they completely let go of the scruples in their hearts, regardless of their own safety, and stormed the Axis positions with full firepower, causing the unprepared Axis troops to panic.

Sniper Chen Feng lost his left arm in the previous battle, and he also chose to stay, at this time he could no longer use a sniper rifle, sitting on an armored personnel carrier, operating a large-caliber machine gun with his right hand, and firing fiercely at the panicked enemy group, and the Axis soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and were immediately crushed into pulp by the armored vehicles that rushed up.

All the wounded volunteered to stay behind for cover, and they were placed on personnel carriers, and all the wounded who could move were either using automatic rifles or throwing grenades, relying on the open firing holes on both sides of the personnel carriers, and fiercely strafing the surrounding Axis soldiers.

Those seriously wounded, who could not get up, lay on the stretcher in the middle of the personnel carrier, groping with trembling hands, pressing bullets into the magazine for their comrades, doing what they could. These desperate wounded broke out with powerful combat effectiveness, inflicting heavy casualties on the besieging troops of the Axis countries that were caught off guard, and General Howell, the commander of the Axis powers, who saw the casualty report, also sighed for a while.

When the battle in the south began, the 120,000 troops led by Song Mingxuan launched an attack on the Axis forces in the north. Due to the lack of vehicles in the swamps, the unit abandoned all vehicles and heavy equipment, and the whole army attacked on foot.

The Axis soldiers were not good at fighting at night, and some of the troops were drawn to the south to intercept the feints, and the weak defenders could not stop the united NATO coalition forces, and their defensive lines were quickly broken through under the fierce strafing of the Allied automatic rifles.

Without waiting for the reinforcements on both sides of the opposing side to react, Song Mingxuan's troops had quickly disappeared into the Pleshé swamp. Song Mingxuan, who had entered the swamp, looked back at the south, where the sound of gunfire had gradually thinned out, and muttered with tears in his eyes: "Brothers, go all the way." ”

The nearby warriors were also touched by his emotions, and many of them turned their heads and looked at the burning south and whispered in a not very neat voice: "Brothers, go all the way." ”

The remnants of the 29th Army and the 60th Cossack Army led by Song Mingxuan entered the dangerous Preseche swamp, where a more arduous march and an uncertain future awaited them, but there were many local Cossack soldiers leading the way, and their chances of escaping and ascending to heaven were still very high.

Just when Song Mingxuan successfully broke through, Dong Guicheng was leading the 28th Army, which had suffered heavy losses, and hid in a jungle in the upper reaches of the Neman River. In a volley a few days earlier, the troops of the XXVIII Army had been entangled in the guards of the opposing supply convoys, and after hours of fierce fighting, they were almost surrounded by the two Axis armies that had rushed over them, and in the course of the battle they were strafed and bombed by the Axis air forces.

Under the attack of the opponent's superior firepower, after losing tens of thousands of people, Dong Guicheng led his troops to jump out of the encirclement and fight here. Now he had only more than 8,000 people left in his hands, and at this time a meeting to decide the direction of the troops' actions was being hotly discussed among the trees.

"In the village five kilometers away, there is a division of the Boston Imperial supply convoy and their guards, and according to the reconnaissance they seem to be running out of gas, and if we can eliminate them, we can turn the attention of the Axis powers back so that we can delay them for a few more days." Dong Guicheng looked at the map and explained to the officers.

The commander of the third brigade said tall and strong: "Commander, we don't have much supplies now, and many of these remaining combat vehicles have no shells, and the fuel is only left in the fuel tank." If we attack again, it will be no different from sending us to death. ”

Looking at this old brother who had worked with him for more than 20 years, Dong Guicheng asked rhetorically: "If it were you, what would you do if you encountered this situation?" ”

Gao Dazhuang said without thinking: "Of course, we will immediately retreat to the east, as long as we can return to our control area, we can get enough supplies, and our combat effectiveness will be quickly restored, and we will attack the enemy at that time." ”

Dong Guicheng patted the tall and strong shoulder and said: "The enemy also thinks so, so it is very likely that they will wait for us on the way to retreat, if we are fighting like this, we must be beyond the enemy's expectations, we will be able to destroy the enemy in large numbers and disrupt their plans." ”

Seeing what Gao Dazhuang was about to say, Dong Guicheng continued: "I know what you want to say, if we retreat now, we can indeed keep more strength." According to this idea, we can win one battle, but lose the whole war. What we need now is to annihilate the enemy, to destroy them, even if we sacrifice all of them, to attack resolutely, because with each enemy we destroy, victory will come sooner. ”

Looking at the resolute eyes around him, Dong Guicheng said: "Maybe we can't see the arrival of victory, but as a soldier, we should already have the consciousness of dying in battle, for the sake of the motherland, we must attack and attack again until the enemy is defeated." Everyone obeyed my command and distributed all the ammunition evenly, with at least two shells per gun. In the evening, Gao Da Zhuang led forty chariots to go out first, and the large army followed me to attack, and we must break through the opponent's defense as fast as possible and take them by surprise. Remember, this is the last assault of our 28th Army. ”

At eight o'clock in the evening, the leading chariot unit led by Gao Dazhuang broke into the defensive position of the Boston army, and the Boston guards, who were not much prepared, were taken by surprise, and the rumbling chariot tracks drove quickly through the trenches and drove towards the village where the opposing supply convoy was retained.

But soon the Bostonians reacted, and some Boston M4 tanks that seemed to have some fuel left over drove up and charged the Grizzly 3 tank unit led by the tall man. Seeing the other side's counterattack troops dispatched, the soldiers of the Chinese army, who were short of ammunition, were a little flustered, and they shouted into the radio: "Comrades-in-arms, don't be afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, don't retreat, and advance for the motherland." ”

"Forward for the Motherland." These words of the tall and strong infected everyone, and the warriors felt their blood boiling, and they no longer had to worry about ammunition, and drove their chariots at full speed, shouting slogans and rushing towards the enemy.
