One hundred and sixty-three. "Iron Wall" Modell
"The cannon is in place."
"The attacking force is in position!"
General Gedel plucked off one of his eyes and looked at the time: "Let's get started." ”
With this order from the general, the Germans unfurled their sharp minions.
Cannons roared, shells whistled, and gunsmoke and fire danced together on the battlefield. Countless German troops must have erupted in the country and jumped out of their positions.
Everywhere on the battlefield, you can see black-pressed soldiers, and cannonballs dancing in the air play a gorgeous music for them.
Whatever General Gedel thought of the war, he had nothing to blame for his command of the battle
And the German soldiers also maintained their usual bravery, releasing the oppression brought by the absence of war for so many days on the battlefield
In 1916, when the war was at a critical juncture, the German soldiers were fighting for their courage on the battlefield, and any challenge was so insignificant in their eyes.
Victory is the only thing they are after!
General Gedel was quite satisfied with the performance of his men.
The front-line positions of the Russian army were quickly torn apart, and a large number of German soldiers rushed in. The Russian soldiers were so lax that some of the heavy machine guns didn't even have time to load their guns
In the sky, German fighters also appeared, which caused even more panic among the Russians.
The vast majority of them do not want to fight, and even abhor war. Anti-war sentiment is most evident in the Russian army among the armies of all countries.
This does not blame them for not loving their country.
Defeat after failure, failure, failure after failure, even the most brave and good soldier cannot bear it. When a person's bottom line is broken one at a time, he will be completely numb and disappointed with everything he is facing
Just like the Russian soldiers now
A wave of collapse is sweeping here. Batches of Russian soldiers threw down their weapons and chose to flee as soon as possible, and they were unwilling to continue to work for this uniform.
Of course, not all of them, but there were also many loyal officers and men who still firmly held on to their positions, doing everything they could to block the enemy's advance
General Gedel lowered the telescope in his hand, and he was very satisfied with the speed of advance on the battlefield. However, the enemy's commander, General Kashanov, will soon respond.
That's not an easy role to deal with. Judging from the information coming back from the front during this period, General Kashanov has made great adjustments in the army after taking over the command here. Those indiscriminate soldiers and even officers were transferred to the front line by him.
It's the soldiers who are now on the run.
General Kashanov will definitely not care about their casualties, for him these troops are just some artillery fire. It is to let the army behind be given an early warning.
A large number of reorganized Russian troops were used by Kashanov as elite troops, and once the Germans attacked, they were able to quickly enter the battle.
It's a smart way to do it. Even if all the front-line positions fell into the hands of the Germans. It will also not play a destructive role in the overall defense line of the Russians. What remained in the hands of the Germans could only be a burden
"Tell Major Ernst that he can act while the Russians have not yet committed the main forces." General Gedel calmly said, "Ah, by the way, tell him that I wish him good luck." Kashanov is not an easy person to deal with."
Of course, the members of the skeleton commando team will not pay attention to Kashanov, in their eyes there is only one person:
Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Brahm!
Wang Weiyi, who was neatly dressed, glanced at the battlefield, and then said calmly: "Heinz, let's start." ”
"Yes. Major! ”
The three tanks roared and slowly moved towards the front line. Slowly followed, three trucks. And around the tank, are the members of the skeleton commandos.
The German soldiers, who were moving to the front, got out of the way when they saw three tanks appear.
The skeleton battle flag did not appear, Wang Weiyi didn't want to be so ostentatious to let everyone know: The skeleton commando team has been dispatched!
Planes in the sky were constantly dropping aerial bombs on the ground, and it was the 2nd Hunting Squadron under the command of Richthofen.
This hateful and cute "Red Baron", once he returns to the sky, becomes the master of the blue sky!
No one can play with him in the air, not the British, not the French, neither can the Russians!
He's the king of the blue sky!
Guderian, who was standing in the tank control tower, glanced at the sky and muttered: "If you are bombed by mistake again, I will definitely not let you go"
He quickly shut his mouth and looked around, but fortunately, his companions were attacking with the tank. They didn't hear it, and they began to have the nickname "Crow's Mouth".
The tank let out an unpleasant roar and moved forward slowly, mightily.
The sound of gunfire rang out on the battlefield, as if to send off the skeleton commandos
"Hey, forward, forward!" A German second lieutenant waved his hand and shouted at the tank. The German soldiers around him had taken full control of the place.
"Captain, is there anything you can help with?" Wang Weiyi also raised his voice.
"The Russians' two machine guns are blocking our way Major, can you fire that cannon?"
"Of course, Second Lieutenant." Wang Weiyi laughed: "Heinz, your tank is not an ornament, help the second lieutenant kill those two machine guns!" ”
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Weiyi raised his voice and asked, "Second Lieutenant, what's your name?" ”
"Modell!"
"What?" Wang Weiyi was stunned for a moment.
"ModdellOtto. Moritz. Walter. Moder! ”
Oh, my God! Moder!
"Iron Wall" Moder! The outstanding master of defense in the Second World War, he turned defense into art and defeated the future Soviet general Zhukov's Field Marshal Moder!
He also had a nickname: "Hitler's Fireman". Hitler was there when he was needed!
I actually met the "iron wall" Moder here!
Wang Weiyi's "greed" suddenly emerged
At this time, the shells in the tank's short-barreled cannon flew out with a sharp and terrible sound, and the explosions of "boom-boom-boom-" rang out one after another, and the heavy machine gun of the Russian army, which was still extremely arrogant, suddenly lost the right to speak
"Well done, Major!" Moder flicked his fist excitedly.
"Ensign, you've been requisitioned!" Wang Weiyi said suddenly.
"Ahh Requisitioned yourself? What do you mean?
"Sergeant, you, come here!" Wang Weiyi called one of Moder's sergeants: "Go and tell your superiors that Second Lieutenant Moder has now joined my unit." ”
After he finished speaking, he asked Hitler to take a pen and paper, wrote a line in a hurry, and then handed it to the sergeant: "Bring this to General Gedel!" Yes, you heard it right, General Gedel, without the approval of your superiors! ”
"Major, you and I can't leave my unit, and my superior general won't say yes," Moder hadn't reacted to until now what was going on.
"Your superiors will say yes!" Wang Weiyi smiled: "I have unlimited rights, I can mobilize anyone I need!" Otto. Moritz. Walter. Moder, welcome to the Skeleton Commando! ”
Modell was stunned.
Skeleton Commando? The skeleton commando that had just been formed, but its reputation had spread throughout the German army? So this major in front of you is
He asked tentatively, "Major, who are you?" ”
"Ernst. Brahm! ”
Modell let out a long sigh, it was really the "Skeleton Baron" Ernst. Brahm! God, I actually met Major Ernst here!
He has nothing to hesitate about, it will be his greatest honor to be able to join the "Skeleton Commando" and be able to fight under the command of the Skeleton Baron!
"Major, I am willing to accept your command!"
"Hey, Major, are you going to chat here or move on?" Guderian's tanks had already "rumbled" out of the air.
Wang Weiyi said with a smile: "Second Lieutenant Modell, come forward with us." Let the troops under your command be responsible for sending us out of that position! ”
"Yes, Major!"
Ensign Modell, a new member of the Skeleton Commando, was full of energy at this time, as if he saw countless glories flying towards him.
A large group of German soldiers quickly advanced under the cover of tanks, while the Russians, who had been annihilated by two heavy machine guns, turned around and ran.
Tanks are nothing new on the Western Front, but they are definitely a striking weapon on the Eastern Front.
This steel monster that can withstand bullets and fire cannonballs is so powerful that the Russians tremble.
Under the command of Guderian, several Russian positions were broken through one after another. At this time, the German offensive was suddenly blocked.
The elite troops of General Kashanov appeared on the second line of the battlefield! The fighting qualities they showed were not at all comparable to those of the Russians before them.
But the Germans seemed to have received some kind of death order to tear another gap in the second-line positions anyway.
The artillery fire became more and more intense, and the Germans and Russians kept flying in the air and exploding, constantly taking the lives of soldiers one by one.
The shouts of soldiers and the roar of machine guns mingled to make the whole battlefield look so bloody.
Now, the soldiers on both sides are already desperate, but what exactly is the reason for the fight, I believe that the vast majority of the soldiers are kept in the dark. (To be continued.) )
