Chapter 1050: The Blood of Moscow, Siberia, and Weijiang
PS: It's time to get ready for the end...... During this time, I was thinking about how to make a perfect ending to the book......
"We are calculating the position of the Germans based on where their shells landed. But now they have given me a preliminary report that the German train guns are at least forty kilometers away from here. In other words, even if we find a position, we can't fight back......"
Eisenhower smiled wryly at Barton and said, "They hit us, and we can't reach them." That's what we're facing now......"
Patton was about to talk about bombing with planes, but then he thought of the air battle that was still going on. In such a situation, Patton can only smile bitterly, and the Germans calculated everything very accurately.
They anticipated that the Allies would not be able to send bombers to bomb the immobile train guns at this time, so they recklessly drove the train guns to a suitable distance to bombard the Allied positions.
"We have no way to threaten the Germans' train artillery ...... for the time being" While Eisenhower was at a loss, Montgomery was also listening to his own artillery reconnaissance report.
"They are too far away from us, judging by the power of the shells, their train guns are at least above the caliber of the cannons. And at a distance of at least fifty kilometers from us, our artillery does not have the means to return fire...... "
Montgomery's face was bitter, and he didn't know how to explain it to the soldiers on those positions. Now the British army is facing the same situation as the American army, because the fighters are constantly fighting in the sky, the British army has no way to send more planes to threaten the German train guns.
The Germans' train artillery was the greatest threat to the Allies. If these train guns are not cleared, it will be difficult for all the Allied positions to hold.
No one was sure that in the face of such powerful firepower, they could guarantee that they would be able to hold their positions, and the artillery above the caliber would be enough to destroy any obstacle that tried to hinder the advance of the German army.
Now the British positions confirmed this, and the bombed reinforced concrete fortifications, the blasted air waves, and the British corpses scattered everywhere, all told Montgomery how powerful these guns really were.
"Contact the U.S. military. We've got to deal with these train guns! Montgomery, after a long silence, said, "No matter how great the losses are, these German cannons cannot be accommodated." Their threat is too great......"
The threat was so great that more than 30 percent of the Allied ground fortifications were destroyed by this kind of artillery fire. The position was in shambles, and after the shelling, the German offensive was suppressed by the Allies at great cost of heavy casualties.
But this was not the way to go, and if the Germans continued to use this kind of giant artillery, the Allied positions would have to be breached.
"General! Now our air force units are fighting against German fighters, and if we send fighters to reconnoiter and bomb German train guns at this time, ......"
Chief of Staff Phil hesitated to say something to Montgomery, but was then interrupted by Montgomery: "We have no choice, or the loss of the air force to destroy the German train guns." Or our positions were bombed to the ground by the Germans. It was finally occupied. If you were to choose, which one would you choose?! ”
"General, if our air force fails, there is no doubt that we will be bombed by the Luftwaffe. The situation will not change in the slightest then......" Phil still insisted on his opinion: "But if we allow the air force to win first, then even if the ground forces lose a little, with air support, we can recover the disadvantage......"
"As long as the Air Force wins. Then those train guns will no longer be a problem. We have enough fighters to destroy it, and I doubt that if our air force wins, the train guns will withdraw on their own......"
Chief of Staff Phil's words silenced Montgomery, who was actually a little hesitant himself. If the Air Force is not used, then the risk is still very high.
In the event of the loss of ground positions, the Allies are likely to lose airfields in the rear, and the whole of Moscow will be completely deprived of air support. No one knows how long Moscow will be able to hold out in such a situation.
If the Battle of Moscow had been lost, it would have been a huge blow to the Allies. It was the first full-scale joint operation of the Allies.
The troops dispatched included the Soviet Union, which is now the most powerful, the United States, the most powerful, and all other armies, including the remnants of Britain, France, Belgium, and other countries.
If the war is lost, the capital of the Soviet Union will be lost. Then the consequences can be imagined. This will be a huge blow to the momentum of all the countries and armies participating in the war.
"Let's talk about this matter to Marshal Tukhachevsky of the Soviet Union and General Eisenhower of the United States, and ask them to hold a meeting with us to discuss it......"
Montgomery took a deep breath and said, "It's not up to us to make decisions on our own. We need to hear what they have to say......"
And at this time, in a small town on the border of Siberia. Puffs of smoke rose into the sky. The town was filled with screams, yelling, and gunfire.
Countless Japanese soldiers laughed wildly and exercised their occupier's prerogative in the town - to vent their bestial desires.
The blond women were dragged out into the street, and the smirking Japanese soldiers tore off their clothes and began to satisfy their perverted bodies on them.
"Ah...... How white is this skin! Ozawa-kun, why don't you enjoy it too! A Japanese soldier stood up with his pants lifted and said to an inferior soldier beside him, "Maybe tomorrow our souls will return to the shrine." But at least we've enjoyed these parts of the glory of our Imperial Army, haven't we?! ”
"Hay! Chief Oshima, then your subordinates are welcome! A look of ecstasy appeared on Ozawa's face. And he looked at the Soviet woman there, her face was full.
The woman was lying on the ground, her eyes staring blankly at the sky. There was an incomparably hollow hole in his eyes......
"Come on! Let me enjoy you too, there is a lot of price to pay for a woman like you in the Great Sun Empire......" Ozawa smiled and pulled his pants three or two times, and pounced on the woman......
In the town, shops were looted everywhere. Groups of elderly people and children were driven to the square of the town, where the Japanese set up machine guns and fired at the crowd of people who were driven .......
Screams resounded throughout the town, and the Japanese soldiers who were shooting ordered the inferior soldiers to take bayonets and kill the townspeople who were not dead one by one, after seeing that the crowd had all fallen......
This happens all over the town. Or rather, in the Japanese-occupied zone of the Soviet Union, it happened constantly. The beast-like Japanese people showed their most hideous faces at this moment.
"Mukai-san, this is too boring. Let's have some fun! Takeshi Noda, the 3rd Brigade of the 9th Wing, who was holding a bottle of vodka, said to Toshiaki Mukai beside him.
"Oh?! Do you have any good suggestions?! Xiang Jing Minming smiled and said, "Actually, I also think it's very boring." ”
"Why don't we have a game?!" Noda Yi released a hideous look in his eyes and said, "I heard that Mukai-san is a master of kendo, and I have also practiced kendo since I was a child. Why don't we try it here?! ”
"How do you compare?!" Xiang Jing Minming restrained his smile, put down the wine bottle in his hand and asked.
"Slash and slash the hundred-man competition! How is it?! Noda Takeshi's face became extremely hideous, and the saber on his waist was not only issued by the army, but also a war knife handed down by his ancestral samurai.
And in the hand of Mukai Toshiming, who has the strength of the third stage of kendo, is a famous sword that has been marked with the inscription "Guan Sun Liu".
"The ancients in our country had a saying that people tried the sword. Why don't we try it here. Limited to 100 people, try if the knife in our hands can kill hundreds of people, how about it?! Noda smiled and said, "Of course, the game!" How about a reward, with the caviar we just seized and that bottle of vodka?! ”
"Good! How about we try it now?! Toshiaki Mukai smiled and put down the wine glass in his hand. "I can't wait to see how many first levels my 'Sun Liudao' can achieve now!" ”
Amid the hideous laughter of Toshiaki Mukai and Takeshi Noda, a hack-and-slash match begins. Takeshi Noda pulled out his ancestral sword and slowly walked out of the position towards the town.
After a while, he noticed a figure hiding behind the door, perhaps a child. So the shadow doesn't look long, probably his mother hid him there?! It's a pity that this guy forgot that while the sun rises, the shadows will be gradually elongated. He'll be found eventually.
"Puff......" Noda smirked and stabbed the knife directly through the plank, and blood gushed out. There was a burst of "Mommy...... Mom ......" wail.
Takeshi Noda drew his knife. Pushing away the plank, he dragged out the child who had been impaled through the abdomen behind him. The kid looked to be about seven or eight years old, his eyes were full of fear, and his mouth kept screaming a bunch of Russian that Noda didn't understand.
"Your head, it should be good to make a sake glass...... "Noda Takeshi said with a sinister smile in Japanese, "I like such a big cup, and it's just right for sake drinking......"
A knife of "poof....... Before the fear in the child's eyes had gone, the head had already flown into the sky. Suddenly, the blood in the cavity spurted out, and the headless thin corpse lay on the ground and convulsed.
Noda Yi smiled and grabbed the hair on the child's head, and lifted the child's head: "It's really a good choice to make a wine vessel......
And at this time. Toshiaki Mukai also slashed his first target. It was an old man who looked to be around sixty years old. When Toshiaki Mukai found him. He was trying to protect several children from being captured by Japanese soldiers.
Toshiaki Mukai cut off the old man's wooden fork with a knife, and then cut off the old man's head. The children did not move, not because he was merciful, but because he thought it was the spoils of these Japanese soldiers. He wanted the spoils of war.
The killing game continues. Takeshi Noda and Toshiaki Mukai are constantly looking for living people in the town for them to kill. They don't care if it's an old man, a child, or a woman they hack to death...... Or a pregnant woman......
"Poof......" Xiang Jing Minming cut off a woman who kept begging him, and then cut open her belly with a knife and said to herself: "The child in this belly, if you cut off your head, you can probably count it as one...... Half a good thing. Kill one more of these, and you'll be able to make up three. ”
There weren't many people in the town, and soon Toshiaki Mukai and Takeshi Noda couldn't find anyone for them to compete. So they set their sights on other towns, and anyway, Ishihara's order was to let them enjoy themselves.
So why not have some fun with yourself during this time?! And after hearing the news of the contest between Toshiaki Mukai and Takeshi Noda, the Japanese generals who laughed wildly supported the contest with their own attitude - they increased the prize to a saber from the Saber Group of the Land Army. Two cans of top-quality caviar are also served.
At the same time, he also instructed the town he occupied to facilitate the two men's competition. The massacre continued, and the entire area of Siberia occupied by the Japanese was stained with blood......
"Chirp...... Rumble! Rumble!! ......"The Japanese river's flotilla finally exchanged fire with the Wehrmacht's shore defense forces, and the two sides refused to give in to each other and started a major battle on the Weijiang line.
The Japanese Navy fighters in the cover of the sky were constantly trying to stop the Wehrmacht warhawks from attacking the ships on the river. The entangled Wehrmacht warhawks had no choice but to brace themselves and deal with the Japanese naval aviation units that were scurrying around.
"Tutu Tu Tu ...... Rumble!! "A Type 2 fighter was directly volleyed by the Tiger Shark interceptor, and the firepower of the four Heavy Machine Guns was no joke, and the Japanese fighter plane that was hit fell from the sky like a drunk.
"Stay in formation! Stay in formation! Break through the Japanese army, dive and divide after pulling up and shoot down! Xiong Xin, the captain of the "Vulture" brigade of the Wehrmacht Air Force, who commanded the operation in the sky, roared with red eyes.
The hardest part of this battle is undoubtedly him. On the one hand, he has to command the war eagles in the sky to fight. On the other hand, he had to be careful not to be shot down by Japanese fighters.
At the same time, you have to achieve a good record, if it is not for the excellent kung fu in your hands, no one will dare to take this position.
"Whoosh...... The Tiger Shark B behind the "Boom Boom Boom ......" and the timely time when the Japanese army was in a mess, launched all the rockets in his rocket launch tube at one time.
Three or four Japanese Zero fighters could not dodge and were bombed. The consequence was that these thin-skinned Japanese fighters were directly blown up into a cloud of smoke and fell down.
The four Japanese fighters that were affected were also damaged, and they staggered to the rear in desperation.
"Boom! Rumble!! "Boom ......" The coastal defense unit of the Wehrmacht has long been temporarily formed by the gun. They had more than 20 caliber heavy guns in their hands, and these heavy guns were now constantly bombarding the Japanese warships on the Weijiang River.
"Steady! Left full rudder!! Angle 18, three shots in a row! "On the Japanese ships, the Japanese troops were also constantly directing the evasion of Wehrmacht shells, and at the same time returning fire on the shore defense guns.
They knew that the Wehrmacht's coastal defense artillery would certainly not be very numerous and the caliber should not be comparable to theirs. So, they are trying to destroy the artillery of the Wehrmacht. The F-FDTL coastal defence forces were forced to retreat.
"Damn! Aim to hit! We have twenty-four cannons in our hands, and we can blow up and sink his broken ship with a flat bombardment! You're afraid of birds! "The interim commander of the Wehrmacht Shore Defense Force, Loude, jumped up and down on the artillery position.
The artillerymen kept adjusting the angle of the artillery fire without saying a word, and then there was a fierce bombardment of the Japanese battleships on the river! The two sides come and go, killing each other.
There were Japanese shells that fell on the artillery positions of the Wehrmacht. Knocked over several cannons. The artillerymen who operated the artillery suddenly fell in a pool of blood.
And those who are alive will continue to reload without saying a word and continue to bombard the Japanese ships on the river.
"Boom!!" A shell hit the Japanese warship, and the fire burst into the sky. The bridge of the Japanese army was hit, and the captain of the ship, Maki Ichikawa, was killed on the spot.
The first mate, Naoki Kawano, was blown off a leg. Of course I fainted. There was chaos on the bridge, full of wailing Japanese officers and staff officers of the fleet.
"Stop loss! Fire suppression! Fast!! But some Japanese staff officers who were not killed by the bombing hurriedly took action and commanded the Japanese sailors on the ship to extinguish the fire and stop the loss.
But at this time. The ships that were hit have already been forced to reduce their speed.
"Chirp...... Rumble! Rumble!! ......"The Japanese ship had just reduced its speed when it was hit by three more shells. These three shells were extremely deadly, they hit the Japanese boiler and exploded the entire boiler.
Suddenly, the Japanese battleships began to enter the water, and the speed of the ship was reduced to about ten knots. Seeing this, the Japanese fighters in the sky also panicked, and they began to divide some of the fighters to try to find out the location of the Wehrmacht artillery and destroy it.
It didn't matter if the battleship was sunk, but if the artillery units of the Wehrmacht were not destroyed, then the subsequent support fleet would also be threatened. That's the most serious problem.
"Don't divide them up, bite them to death! Fast!! Xiong Xin shouted loudly through the communicator, and he kept pulling up his fighter plane to intercept the Japanese fighters who were trying to do reconnaissance.
And the Japanese fleet also discovered his intentions, and several fighters suddenly circled and pounced on him! At the last moment, the Wehrmacht warhawks, who had discovered the situation, began to cover their captains.
......Machine guns rang out in the sky, and the Wehrmacht and Japanese fighters suffered losses to each other, but neither side would take a step back. At this time, the battle has reached a fever pitch, and both sides of the battlefield have guessed each other's intentions.
They knew that their success or failure here would likely affect the success or failure of the two battlefields in Weijiang......
"All the fighters are to be dispatched at once, and our river fleet must be guaranteed to arrive at the reserved position. Call Marshal Sugiyama and tell them not to save. Send all the fighters to support ...... at once."
Through the report on the battlefield, Shan 56 was keenly aware of the current situation of the Wehrmacht. As long as the Wehrmacht was blocked from the river, even if they had troops staying on the Japanese positions, they would not be able to escape annihilation.
"Support the Army's Weijiang Front at all costs!"
"Hail!!"
