Chapter 1105: Moscow of Blood and Snow (12)

"But now apart from him, we really can't find a better candidate to lead and train this tactic." Rundstein, although he also disliked Skorzner, was willing to accept the fact as a soldier.

The fact is that of the entire Wehrmacht, only Skorzny was the most familiar with this tactic. It is understandable that Skorzny's achievements in the campaign against Moscow were extremely impressive.

The special commando team he led suffered the least losses in the battle, and achieved the best results. The snipers of the commando team he led even achieved the record of killing nearly 100 Allied troops.

Even Bock had to admit that the commando team led by Skorzny was now one of the backbone of the German army in Moscow. Unfortunately, their tactical approach was unacceptable to traditional German generals.

As Van der Fai and his analysis suggested, the future of the German army will receive a very traditional Prussian military education, that is, mechanized raids, encirclements and annihilation operations of large military groups.

The fall of France and the fall of Britain were all due to the fact that the German army was a large military bloc.

However, just as Fan Dehui and others put forward, this mode of operation will be of good effect when dealing with the field battles of the large military blocs of the two sides.

Once in the zone of special operations, the shortcomings of this method of warfare are revealed.

And this time the Allies were in Moscow and taught the Germans a good lesson. Mechanized warfare of large corps is extremely unsuitable in urban warfare.

In such an area of operations. It is more dependent on a fully small-group approach. This sudden change in the way of warfare left the German army at a loss.

This is completely different from the training they have experienced, and what is even more terrifying is that the German army once achieved extremely brilliant results in the way of fighting in large groups.

This makes their minds fixed by past experiences. No one has reacted to how to cooperate and how to fight in such an operational environment.

All the troops were in disarray in the city of Moscow, and if it were not for the German superiority in firepower and fighters, they would have lost more than the Allies.

"At the moment, we don't have a better viable solution. And this plan proposed by the High Command is the most suitable for us at present......"

Rundstey smiled bitterly: "Even if we don't want to admit it, we have to admit that we have spent too much manpower and material resources in Moscow, and the losses are too great." Keep losing like this. Germany simply cannot cope with the rest of the war......"

Loeb, Bock, and other German military leaders in Moscow fell silent when they heard this. What Rundstey said was an irrefutable fact that the losses of the German army were now too great.

If they continue to fight in Moscow like this, even if they win the Battle of Moscow, the German army will not be able to cope with the subsequent counterattack of the US army and the Chinese Defense Forces.

What will be the outcome of the war then. It can well be imagined.

"Give this report to Skorzny and we can hear what he has to say before making a decision." Bock thought about it for a long time before he made a compromise decision.

In the eyes of an old-fashioned Prussian soldier like him, this method of warfare was a way that completely violated the will of the soldiers. Actually, it's not just him. There were not many generals in the entire Wehrmacht who accepted this method of warfare.

In their opinion. This is just another strange affair created by a Führer on a whim. For the Führer's frequent whims, these German generals were no longer surprised.

Aren't the former stormtroopers and SS all special products of this Führer?! Therefore, even if the Führer suddenly made some strange troops that day, the generals of the Wehrmacht would turn a blind eye.

If it weren't for the damned stormtroopers' whimsical desire to annex the Wehrmacht, perhaps the Wehrmacht generals would have seen these "game units" as their reserves.

Without further ado, Skorzny quickly got the order from Berlin. And after seeing this order, the colonel, who had been in China, was relieved after all.

OK. Fortunately, there are still people in Berlin who understand. At least some people, after suffering losses, still know how to analyze the way the Allies are fighting and come up with a solution.

"This is not a plan made by the High Command. To be precise, this is the masterpiece of His Majesty Kaiser Wilhelm. He handed the order to Officer Juncker of Skorzny and looked at Skorzny with solemnity.

"But externally, we would like you to explain that this plan is the work of the Führer. After all, the leader of Germany is now our Führer, and His Majesty does not want any situation to affect the authority of the Führer. ”

Skorzny nodded his head to indicate that he understood, but it was impossible to know what he would actually say.

Subsequently, the Special Operations Commando Team, which had been expanded to 200 men, led by Skorzny Say, was all assembled. Skorzny read the order out in front of them.

"We are the SS, German soldiers under the Führer's own command. And we have been trained in a way that no other unit has ever experienced. Our equipment is also the best in the whole of Germany! ”

Skorzny looked at his team members and said, "Although the generals of the Wehrmacht are blind to our merits, the Führer is wise. He didn't hide our record, and now! It's time for us to step up to the forefront, and we need to tell the world with our actions! ”

"Our presence will be his lingering nightmare!"

"Hey! Hitler!! The commandos of Skorzny raised their hands in excitement and gave a Nazi salute. What happened to them during this time was unimaginable.

Many times, they were forced to fight against allies who were several times their size. Facing the threat of Allied snipers at any time.

From the storming of Moscow to the present, the assault team has dropped from nearly 300 to 200 people at once. The rest of the team had already died in Moscow.

And what they achieved was to inflict casualties on the Allies several times their own. The Allies were even forced to choose to deploy a large number of detachments. Trying to annihilate them.

But they pulled out anyway, and Skorzny's iconic scarred face was thoroughly remembered by the Allies. And because of Skorzny's outstanding record, after all, he won the title of "Europe's No. 1 villain".

"Now. I began to assign combat missions! Skorzny opened up the battle strategy that he and his staff had decided on, and said to the commandos below.

"Our mission this time is not to directly participate in the war. Rather, it is to train our other troops into Moscow how to conduct the battle of urbanization. You will be assigned to the front-line units below to directly direct their operations......"

On October 23, Trotsky and other Allied commanders suddenly discovered a strange situation. On this day, it seemed that all the units of the German army were on vacation.

They did not bombard the Allied positions as usual. There was no attack on the occupied areas of the Allied forces. Had it not been for the fact that the Allied attempts to attack the German positions were blocked, even Trotsky and others suspected that these Germans had withdrawn.

"The Germans' anomaly is not good news...... Tukhachevsky said worriedly to Eisenhower and the others: "They will stop for the time being, then they will definitely launch a larger offensive next......

"Even if you know it's so. We can't help it...... "Montgomery's face is also very unpleasant, the British army lacks experience in urban warfare, and they have paid a lot of casualties during this time.

Fortunately, the snipers of the British army were not bad, at least saving some face for the British army, which suffered heavy losses.

"Whatever they do. We can only wait now. At night. Send some troops to test the Germans. Don't do anything during the day......"

Trotsky's decision was simple and unchangeable.

"Didn't the Germans go on vacation?! Then let them continue to take vacation, and I will ask Zhukov to bring in the material as soon as possible. Send all the wounded out at the same time......"

Trotsky looked at Eisenhower and the others: "I think this matter is the most important thing now, and we must first of all constantly increase our combat effectiveness and ensure that the supplies are sufficient to support us in the war." ”

"We have no way of knowing what the Germans are doing or planning. So instead of wasting time on this, let's follow our plan and follow our strategy. ”

The rest of the Allied generals nodded in agreement. Patton sat in the command all the time, without squeaking. Since Moscow went on the defensive, his armored forces have not been in battle.

Trotsky and Eisenhower used Patton's armoured forces as their last reserve. If the war is no longer possible. Patton needed to use his tank forces to break a bloody path for the Allies.

As a result, Patton's armoured forces remained silent no matter how difficult the war was. This was the consensus reached by the top leaders of the Allied forces. At the same time, it was also an order given by Washington to Patton.

If the time came for the battle to be decided, Patton needed to salvage the remaining Allied forces. At the very least, it is guaranteed that there are enough veterans who can maintain the defense capability of the USSR.

At this time, some ruins and broken walls similar to the fierce fighting between the two sides in the city were suddenly built outside Moscow. Groups of German officers frequented here.

Like privates, they kept shuttling through the ruins and buildings with all kinds of weapons. Skorzny is carrying a large number of commandos and is doing combat simulation training.

They were short on time, and now they were only allowing their troops to rest and recuperate, and at the same time waiting for Berlin to provide them with enough weapons and equipment for urban warfare.

As soon as the armament arrived, then the Germans would again launch a campaign against Moscow. When the time comes, the two sides will be a real never-ending contest.

"Don't charge! Don't expose yourself in the open! Are you idiots?! I said that coordination in small combat units is extremely important! You need to take care of your comrades-in-arms, and the first thing you need to clean up is the commanding heights around you......"

In the ruins, Skorzny kept pointing out the combat operations of these German officers, correcting their mistakes in training little by little.

"Sniper, your mission is to support your comrades from above. Keep an eye on the areas where enemies may appear, and warn your comrades in time......"

The training of the German army was going on intensively, and the report of their training was beginning to be submitted to the slaughter of the tigers.

In the imperial capital, Fan Dehui in the General Staff of the National Defense Forces excitedly held the training and combat reports that kept coming. Study it carefully. The staff officers of the entire operations research room also acted the same as Fan Dehui.

They came up with this plan, so they are extremely concerned about its implementation.

"Hmm...... It seems that this Colonel Skorzny really has two brushes. In his way, the Germans were soon able to get into shape. In particular, this kind of simulated training and combat is very useful for these combat veterans to get into the state......"

Fan Dehui exclaimed: "It's not that these German officers don't know how to fight, they just lack this awareness. And this consciousness is extremely important, as long as they can produce such a sense of warfare, then the allies will be unlucky! ”

"Hahaha...... I said Lao Fan, how much do you hate the Allies?! If they let them know, they will try to peel you off and tear you apart......" Zeng Cong, deputy director of the Operations Research Office of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces. One of the few people who knows a lot about this project.

Others were informed only that Skorzny had been in the Wehrmacht. And familiar with the methods of the special operation, and now because of the defeat in the Battle of Moscow. This Colonel Skorzny was reused and was trying to train the Germans to take on the towns for combat.

"Humph! In my opinion, there is not a single good thing about white pigs. When did these turtle calves give us a good heart?! Fan Dehui sneered: "The more they die, the better, I can't wait for them all to die in Moscow." There will be a lot less of all that stuff that way......"

In fact, this attitude of Fan Dehui also represents the attitude of the Wehrmacht generals towards other Allied forces on the one hand. I have to say. The concept that Tu Mengben implanted in the Wehrmacht is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Only the interests of the country and the nation are in the eyes and hearts of these soldiers. will be above all else. All of this is imperceptible to almost all of their behavior patterns.

They have never forgotten the sins that white people have done on Chinese soil. It's just that now is not the time to pay off these blood debts. Moreover, it is not a good idea to set up enemies for yourself all over the world at this time.

But under the conditions, they are extremely happy to help these allies.

"I said, Lao Fan, do you think we should remind the Yankees and Lao Maozi?!" Zeng Cong touched his chin and said with a smile: "If we really cripple them, it won't be good news for us." ”

"Now there are not many Allied forces in Moscow. Not less. Of Zhukov's 80,000 people outside Moscow, more than 10,000 have now entered. But that's not a big deal. If Skorzny really cripples them, we won't gain more than we gain......"

Zeng Cong's words made Fan Dehui fall silent, he hadn't considered this issue before. Indeed, if the Germans did cripple the Allies with their offensive plans, it would not be good news for the Wehrmacht.

Only the defeat of both the Allies and the Germans was the best news for the Wehrmacht.

"Let's make a report and hand it over to the Chief of General Staff Su to see...... Fan Dehui was also a little undecided, and after pondering for a while, he said to Zeng Cong: "What you said makes sense, we still have to remind ...... of it."

"Otherwise, the Allies really made Skorzny lame, and it is really not good news for us......"

Su Zongzhe reacted quickly after receiving the report, and he did not hesitate to send the report to Moscow. Lei Daxiang took the report and handed it directly to the Allied Operational Command.

As soon as Trotsky and others got their hands on this report, they convened an emergency operational meeting. At the same time, Lei Daxiang was invited to join the meeting to provide specific information and reference for the combat plan.

"I guessed that the Germans had a unit that was good at fighting in urban terrain based on several combat records provided by the Soviet army. It's a pity we didn't get a chance to play against them......"

Lei Daxiang straightened his waist in front of Trotsky and the others, and said solemnly: "I believe that the generals have also heard the news of this army, and we have reported it before. The Germans have formed a special commando team, and I have reason to suspect that they were the one who had inflicted great casualties on the Allies in the city......"

"Colonel Ray, do you mean that this combat unit is no longer responsible for guarding the train guns and is now responsible for entering Moscow?!" Barton frowned and said, "If that's the case, aren't they worried about the safety of their train guns?!" ”

Lei Daxiang smiled bitterly, this is interlaced like a mountain. Patton is indeed a fierce general in the battle formation, and he is also a fierce general in armored combat. But he knew very little about the raid operations of small forces.

"General Patton, a surprise attack by our small force is also a prerequisite. Without preconditions, we go straight to the mission, which is no different from sending us to death. ”

Lei Daxiang looked at the people present and said, "The current situation in Moscow no longer allows us to carry out this kind of infiltration operation. The situation here is too complicated, and there is a mixture of friend and foe. The slightest bit of trouble on our part could be discovered......"

"In this situation, it is too risky to carry out a small force raid operation......"

Patton nodded to indicate that he understood, and which commando commander of the German army should have seen the current situation before he boldly joined the battle in the city.

Moreover, for now, the train artillery will not play much role in the capture of Moscow. It was the heavy artillery and air forces of the German army that played a greater role than the train artillery...... (To be continued......)
