The battle for the Land of Life took on the brutality of the 21st. On this day, even Ernst. Marshal Bream was also personally present in the most direct battles of the front.

The soldiers on both sides were holding their breath in a life-and-death contest, and no one was willing to give up.

Tanks and self-propelled guns fired at each other, and the shells smashed countless craters into the ground.

Fires were everywhere, and the entire battlefield literally turned into a furnace in which everything was burning......

There was no time to eat at all, and no one felt hungry at all.

If your life is gone, what do you need food for?

In the encirclement, the German-Soviet soldiers were engaged in a brutal contest, and outside the encirclement, the German-Soviet soldiers were also engaged in the most brutal contest.

Race against time, race against death!

Everyone doesn't know what will happen in the future, everyone is waiting for what will happen in the future.

The flesh suffers here, and the soul suffers here...... There is nothing more painful than waiting for the judgment of fate......

On this day, there were more than 70 battles of a staggering size between the two sides. The number of casualties is not counted at all......

White-knuckle battles took place directly in many positions, and at that moment, humanity suddenly returned from the age of hot weapons to the age of cold weapons. The soldiers with machine guns and submachine guns turned into beasts in an instant, tearing each other apart......

The battle for the Land of Life looked like the Germans were in limbo and in danger of being broken through at any moment. However, the Soviets stormed for a whole day, but the position was still stubbornly in the hands of the German assault group.

And at this time, the German army on the outer front also launched a powerful assault. The fastest marching SS skeleton division had broken through the Soviet resistance.

Now the situation is starting to turn somewhat unfavorable for the Russians......

Voroshilov was forced to draw some troops from the battlefield to block the German assault, but he also knew very well that with the strength of the German SS assault, his own blocking force would not be able to delay them for much longer.

For every additional minute, the danger is increased by one additional minute......

And because of that. Even at night, Voroshilov gave the order to storm.

He couldn't afford to wait, the Germans wouldn't have much time left him. Maybe in a minute, the armored vehicles of the Germans will appear in front of them.

The Germans were also not idle, and after nightfall they held their ground. On the one hand, he resolutely sent an assault team to carry out a night attack.

The point of defense is not to stick to the ground to the death. Rather, it is necessary to launch a counter-assault at the right opportunity, using thunderous means to completely disrupt the enemy's deployment.

The SS commandos, the most elite of the German army, made a sortie......

Use chaos to win the most precious time of every minute!

Now the battlefield has long been chaotic, it is impossible to distinguish who is the attacker and who is the defender, and everyone has become a ghost in the night.

Actually, it's not really a dark night, and the raging fires ignite the battlefield when the two sides get closer. You can even see each other's faces clearly.

Leaping bullets pierced the leaping heart, and sharp bayonets sliced through blood-flowing arteries......

When the soldier who was impaled through the body fell. Not only did he not regret and fear, but he breathed a sigh of relief on his strengths......

Fuck the war, it won't bother me again, just let me sleep here......

A large number of German snipers appeared directly in front of them, and this place literally became their hunting battlefield. The running figures are their prey! Aim – shoot – and then a life is mercilessly taken away!

Without the thrill of success, God knows if he will be the next target to be hunted......

The Russians were obviously still unable to adapt to the assault methods of the German commandos, and they could not find a good solution, and some were passively beaten.

Now, all they wanted was for the night to pass as quickly as possible, so that the ubiquitous Germans would retreat to their original defensive positions.

During the night's assault operations, it was clear that the German commandos had achieved quite good results, killing and wounding a large number of enemies and seriously disrupting the Soviet deployment.

Under normal circumstances, when daylight comes, the enemy who has been attacked overnight will have a long time to recuperate.

But alas, this is the Terek River, here is the land of life:

Not only for the Germans, but also for Voroshilov and the Soviet troops under his command, it was also a vital place of life!

Voroshilov did not give the troops that had been attacked overnight any time to adjust, and quickly gave the order to relaunch the attack......

It may seem a bit impersonal, but it's actually a pretty good choice......

Quite simply, time is now life, time is victory, the German army's outer line troops are advancing fiercely here, and any delay in time is what Voroshilov does not want to see.

He had to be precise about every minute.

Under his stern orders, hordes of Soviet troops reappeared on the battlefield......

They had to fight, just like the Germans, for their own survival......

From now on, they do not fight for any faith, not for doctrines, but to make sure that they are not wiped out by the Germans......

The soldiers on both sides who are fighting for survival burst out here with their greatest enthusiasm for fighting.

People are constantly dying, but there are constantly people setting up machine guns on the corpses of their companions, not to avenge their comrades, but to make themselves:

- Stay alive!

The flames of war spread to every corner of the battlefield...... At first you could still hear the shouts, but later. The shouts were not heard at all, everyone was silently attacking, silently defending. And then died silently.

Couldn't ask for more from them because they had already done more than ten times more than they were capable of!

The Viking division, under the constant onslaught of the Soviet army on the Terek River, also completely retreated to the core position.

The best hope - the German soldiers are doing their best to defend their last hope:

The Land of Life!

Regardless of the final outcome of the war, this is bound to become a land stained red with blood!

At this time, Voroshilov and his soldiers probably did not know that the headquarters of their worst enemy, Baron Alexon, was actually set up at the forefront of the battlefield:

F-Position!

Even Field Marshal Ernst himself, from the moment he entered the F position, fought more than a dozen battles with the enemy, large and small......

If all marshals behave so wildly. So what reason is there for his soldiers not to go crazy about it?

Since sooner or later they will die here, please follow this Baron Alexon to the death.

The Russians also believed, and the Germans also had a strong faith......

．．．．．．

"The leading units of the SS skeleton division have broken through our blockade." In the High Command of the Stalingrad Front. Khrushchev said worriedly: "According to the speed of their assault, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to stop them." Comrade commander, I'm a little worried about those troops at the front......"

"It's not worry, but something terrible is about to happen...... Vasilevsky's face looked so solemn: "Comrade Voroshilov has been fighting at the front for so many days. Although the Germans were forced into a small area. But he was unable to achieve the last victory, and now, Ernst. Bramm's plan is likely to succeed...... So many troops, Comrade Military Commissar, so many of our troops are about to be surrounded by the Germans......"

Khrushchev asked tentatively: "Is it possible to remove them now?" ”

Vasilevsky shook his head: "It's too late now, retreating at this time, the command will cause our chaos, but it will make it easier for the German army to break through completely." And. We have mobilized so many troops, but we have not succeeded. Instead...... Do you think Moscow will agree? ”

Khrushchev sighed.

Davamirsky has already been shot, he has become the new scapegoat, so where is the next one?

"Order, Comrade Voroshilov must overcome all difficulties, launch a surprise attack on the German army without interruption, and a major breakthrough must be made today!" Vasilevsky's voice suddenly became firm: "Don't be afraid of sacrifice, we have sacrificed so many comrades...... Order, Comrade Malinovsky, to divide the part in half and rush to repair the fortifications on the other side of the Terek River......"

Khrushchev was stunned, could it be that the marshal was already planning for the worst?

"If the Germans win, they will soon force their way across the Terek River, and when the Terek River is lost will be related to whether a new defense of Stalingrad can be built, which means a very important ......" Vasilevsky's words confirmed Khrushchev's judgment, but then Vasilevsky smiled bitterly: "Actually, what if you can buy enough time?" Most of our troops were already engaged in the assault on the assault clusters in the German army, and there were very few defenders in Stalingrad. Once Voroshilov is defeated, we simply don't have any trustworthy troops left......"

"Gather all the people of Stalingrad." Khrushchev put forward his own proposal: "The workers, peasants and soldiers, in particular, distribute weapons to them, and rely on ideological and political mobilization, I believe that they can also become a huge force!" ”

To this extent, Vasilevsky could only do this: "There are women, old people and children, and all the forces that can be mobilized must be mobilized." Let them know the importance of defending Stalingrad, and let them shed their last drop of blood for the siege of Stalingrad! ”

"Yes, Comrade Commander-in-Chief, I'll arrange it."

Looking at the back of Khrushchev leaving in a hurry, Vasilevsky sighed deeply.

It would have been a perfect attack, a perfect encirclement, but too many factors caused unforeseen results.

Although the fighting continues. But Vasilevsky already had a growing feeling that it would be difficult for his troops to achieve victory again.

Now, what if the German mid-assault clusters can be crushed?

Voroshilov and his troops were counter-surrounded by the Germans......

．．．．．．

On the front line. Voroshilov was anxious, and so were the Soviet officers and soldiers.

The German troops on the outer line were pressing forward step by step, while the German assault groups in the encirclement were still fighting stubbornly.

The Soviets had broken through the German flanks, but the Germans quickly began to drastically shrink their forces, concentrating on a few main core positions for defense.

The overlapping corpses on the battlefield were both German and Russian......

Horizontal corpses. The deaths are different, but they all have one thing in common:

There was no regret on each of their faces...... It seems that they are just tired and sleeping......

A shell flew over. God knows where the road flew out of it, and it landed right in the middle of the Russian attacking team, and in an instant, a large group of Russians were blown up into the sky.

But their companions didn't seem to notice at all. Even the bodies of these people fell to the ground and were torn apart. No one took a second look.

What's there to see? This only adds to the increased sense of fear......

Sooner or later they will all die, and sooner or later they will all be the same as them.

The Germans were no better off, all their positions were under frenzied Soviet attacks, and casualties were mounting by the hour.

This cursed offense, this cursed defense......

．．．．．．

"Hey, Mylistre, do you still have grenades anywhere?"

"And some, marshal!" Myristel handed the grenade to Field Marshal Ernst: "Marshal. When will our troops arrive? ”

"Come on, trust them." Wang Weiyi put the grenade away: "They are all some excellent soldiers. Is it? ”

Myristel nodded: "Marshal, I have been through many battles with you, and there is a question I have always wanted to ask you, but I am afraid of offending you......"

"Look, Mylistre, we're fighting together now, what else can't we ask?"

"Marshal, are you the craziest marshal of all time?"

Wang Weiyi was stunned for a moment, and then "Ha Lu Ha" Da Lu laughed: "I think so, I am probably the most un-like marshal in history!" ”

"But we all love to fight with you...... Hey, the Russians are coming up, all in combat positions! Myrist was laughing as well, and then shouted at the soldiers.

The submachine gun in his hand rang out, but Mylistre looked so happy: "Marshal, do you know what to do?" I never dreamed I'd be fighting with you before. ”

Wang Weiyi was still smiling, his muzzle jumping, and he wanted to tell Mylistre that he never thought he would face such a battle one day.

Thanks to the Ziguang Military Base, he brought himself to such a blood-boiling era......

．．．．．．

"General Moder, Marshal Manstein telegraphed. He asked where our troops were and if they needed his support. The telegram also said that if they did not reach the battlefield in time, then all of them would be court-martialed! ”

"Please call back Marshal Manstein, I don't want to take a military court yet!" Moder, who was holding the binoculars, said coldly: "My troops have completed the breakthrough and are rapidly advancing towards the Terek River, please ask Marshal Manstein to complete his task, I don't need his assistance." ”

After speaking, he put down the binoculars: "Go and ask General Ludwig where he has arrived, and at the same time tell him that I have two bullets ready, and if I can't get to the Terek River in time, then one bullet is for him, and one bullet is for my own use......"

．．．．．．

"Please call General Moder back, his two bullets can be saved." The expressionless Ludwig replied: "My tanks are breaking through, my soldiers are breaking through, and I'm about to see the skeleton division myself!" I should have asked Colonel Van der Winny if I wanted my tank to break through the Russian defenses himself......"

After saying that, he waved his hand: "For Ernst, Skeleton Division - forward!" ”

For Ernst, Skeleton Division - forward!

．．．．．．

"Hell, let General Ludwig stay where he belongs! What the? Met with a Russian blockade? What about tanks? Send all the tanks up! Where are the commandos? What are the commandos doing? "Van der Vinny didn't even look at the telegram.

It's close, it's already close to the battlefield on the Terek River.

Not so long ago, Ernst. A telegram from Field Marshal Bream was well known to every German general who was fighting, and there was only one sentence on the telegram:

"The land of life is still full of life!"

It was also from this telegram that the Terek battlefield was called by all German officers and soldiers:

The Land of Life!

A battlefield full of life!

Now, what Vanderwinj and his troops have to do is to rush to the battlefield where countless lives have been buried, but there are still countless lives blooming!

His regiment made one breakthrough after another, sometimes encountering strong Soviet resistance, but the German soldiers' desperate assaults still achieved incredible results.

Field Marshal Ernst was very close, and now all they had to do was continue to speed up their advance.

Until now, Colonel Van der Winny could not believe that Field Marshal Ernst had really used himself as a decoy. Moreover, this bait was also swallowed by the Russians in one gulp!

Then it's time to leave the rest to yourself! (To be continued......)
