Chapter 1019 1020 A Surprise

On the other side of the phone, it was the commander-in-chief of the German Eastern Front, Field Marshal Brauchitsch. When he heard Accardo's voice, he quickly stood up and saluted: "Long live Führer Accardo, Rudolph! My Führer, we have just received an important piece of information from the front, and we have not yet had time to present it to the intelligence services, but it is absolutely necessary for me to report it directly to you. ”

Führer Accardo was stunned when he heard this on the phone, and he knew that Brauchitsch would not normally bother with such a detail as intelligence if it were not for very important and urgent information. And since Brauchitsch reported this matter directly to Accardo, as the Führer, it means that this information is definitely priceless.

"You say, I'm listening!" Accardo commanded, after thinking about this layer, and then said nothing, waiting for Brauchitsch to speak on the other side of the phone.

Brauchitsch didn't have the courage to let Acre wait long, and immediately spoke: "Army Group A under Marshal Rundstedt, the 48th Grenadier Division under its command, when attacking, surrounded a small village, and as a result, several Soviet Red Army officers were captured inside. ”

The men thought they were going to die, and they were terrified. One of them, after a few casual interrogations, came up with an important piece of information: tomorrow the Soviets would hold a military parade on Red Square, and Stalin would personally inspect the troops they were about to throw into Moscow. Several other prisoners also confirmed the news, and said that they had also heard it from the logistics department of the front, which was not tight-lipped. After Brauchitsch finished this paragraph, he did not wait for Accardo to speak, and added his own opinion: "We have not confirmed this information, but I personally feel that it is necessary to take countermeasures." ”

Hearing this news, Accardo sneered in his heart, it seems that the character of some people is naturally destined, and Stalin played this game in another time and space, which shows that this person's character has not changed because of what he has experienced.

And without confirming, Accardo could guess that even if these Soviet prisoners lied, there would definitely be a real military parade in the Soviet Union. And stopping this Soviet military parade must have made Stalin very unhappy in the last days of his life, right?

Thinking of this, Accardo sneered, and then opened his mouth to Brauchitsch: "My marshal, since the enemy wants to show his strength under our noses, then we must do something to show our greater force. ”

"I see! Führer...... I will immediately inform the Air Force and ask them to bomb Moscow. Brauchitsch spoke on the other end of the phone, in his characteristic voice: "I think we should send all the planes that can be dispatched that day to send some good things to Stalin's military parade." ”

Accardo laughed, and then didn't mention the Air Force. He smiled and said to his marshal: "Marshal Brauchitsch, I would like to ask you a question, do you think that the troops at the front have slowed down their advance because we have exhausted all our strength and are no longer capable of continuing the attack?"

Marshal Brauchitsch was stunned for a moment, and then quickly denied it: "My Führer, our troops are far from exhaustion, the combat effectiveness of all units remains very intact, and the fighting spirit of the soldiers is high...... If you give the order, I think we will be able to enter Moscow tomorrow and start a street battle in Moscow. ”

"What we have been waiting for is nothing more than the movement of the Zhukov cluster. Using Moscow as a bait to catch the big fish of Zhukov's cluster is the fundamental reason why we are delaying the battle of Moscow. Brauchitsch replied: "In addition, I have heard that Mr. Krupp is sending a batch of secret weapons to the front......"

"You see, you remember that we had secret weapons. Accardo took Brauchitsch's words and continued: "I approve the use of this new weapon to attack the city of Moscow! Let our old adversary, Comrade Stalin, enjoy a real baptism." ”

"Then the Air Force side...... Do you want to make a move?" asked Brauchitsch before he hung up the phone.

"When did we have compassion for the enemy? My marshal?" Accardo snorted coldly, and replied slowly: "Use all the means at your disposal to teach Stalin an impressive lesson!

"Yes, my Führer!" Brauchitsch saluted, then hung up the phone in his hand. Then he looked at his adjutant, nodded and said: "Call the artillery units directly under the General Staff of the Eastern Front and ask them to prepare and wait for the order to attack Moscow!"

"Yes! Marshal!" The adjutant immediately turned and walked out, and Brauchitsch grabbed the phone in front of him again: "I'm Brauchitsch, give me the phone number to connect with the air command of the Eastern Front...... Hey, it's me, Brauchitsch...... Starting tomorrow at 8 a.m., request to dispatch all bombers that can take off to attack Moscow! Please make sure that Moscow will not have an hour of quiet time tomorrow!"

On the other side of the phone, it was not General Catherine, who had been personally in charge on the Eastern Front, because at this time he was deploying a new air defense network in Norway. The other party was obviously not the kind of level that could call the shots immediately, and immediately asked: "Marshal, we have limited fuel, and it is necessary to carry out such a large-scale air raid operation......

"I just received the highest order from the Führer, if you need me there to prepare official documents, I will send them to you within 1 hour. Immediately prepare for an air raid operation, just wait for the order. Brauchitsch interrupted: "This is a very important action, understand?"

"Understood! I'll give the order, deploy the plan of action. On the other side of the phone, he heard the supreme order of the Führer, and immediately changed his tone and said firmly: "The Air Force will start at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and repeatedly attack Moscow!"

The German side began to prepare for tomorrow's air raid, while the Soviet side was selecting the troops for the next day's military parade, after all, this military parade was a face-saving project for the world to see, and every detail should fully reflect the great theme that the Soviet army can still fight a war.

Although Vatutin received the German attack on the Soviet positions and finally broke through the frontal line to a depth of 5 kilometers, he still did not know about Stalin's parade plan, which had already been learned by the Germans.

However, the commander of the Moscow defense of the Soviet army was deeply disturbed, and he met with Stalin more than once and affirmed that military parades in front-line cities were a very dangerous thing. Stalin, however, did not heed his exhortations, but replied to Vatutin's caution with his often highlighted stubbornness: "What is not dangerous now?"

Although Vatutin strengthened anti-aircraft fire throughout the Moscow region and prepared more than 100 fighters on the day of the parade to deal with the possible German bomber forces. But he still felt that the Germans would intervene in the parade the next day and bring the Soviet government to a disgraced end to the farce.

Everyone survived the long night in a sleepless night, after all, this kind of thing doesn't happen every day. The artillery units directly under the General Staff of the Eastern Front of the German Army, next to the town in the early morning, lifted the secret weapon covered with canvas. The real pride of the Krupp factory, the 280 mm caliber K-type train gun.

These large-caliber train guns, disguised as cargo trains in the sunset, were the first large-caliber train guns designed and produced by Krupp after Accardo allowed the production of large-caliber guns, using the Navy's 280 mm standard caliber and using naval general-purpose ammunition.

This thing is the Army's coveted large-caliber support weapon, and a full 20 of them were produced in one go. Although it did not make it in time to support the urban offensive and defensive battle of Stalingrad, it was transported to the front and ordered to participate in the upcoming full-scale Battle of Moscow as a support firepower at the level directly under the General Staff of the Eastern Front.

The terrifying range of this weapon allows it to hit targets up to 33 kilometers away with ease, and the grenades are redesigned to carry out shallow penetrating bump attacks on targets, which is very suitable for destroying enemy fixed targets. And now the straight-line distance from this temporary launch site to the center of Moscow is only 33 kilometers.

In the form of passwords, these ancient weapons modified from naval artillery and specially designed train structures were born before World War I, and they were finally ready to let out their first roar in the high-tech warfare of World War II.

The slender barrel began to rise slowly, dozens of meters long like a chimney, pointing to the sky. The folding crane that came with the train was fixed by the artillerymen, and they began to lift large-caliber shells weighing 300 kg for the cannons, and there was nothing in the world that wanted to be so brutally attacked by such shells.

"Adjust the height! Raise the elevation angle of the gun to the specified position according to the firing distance comparison table!" an artillery officer stood in his command position, commanding his men in a loud voice. Adjusting a cannon of this size is not a very simple task, at least not an easy task compared to the nimble small-caliber artillery.

At first there was one gun, then two, then three, until all 20 guns fixed their angles in the right position, and the busy atmosphere disappeared all at once on the entire firing position, and the soldiers waiting for the launch seemed to even breathe solemnly.

Pulling out the pocket watch on his chest, Brauchitsch grabbed the phone in front of him and gave the order to attack in a calm tone: "Let's surprise the Soviets!" -

During the Chinese New Year, Long Ling was busy for many days, and found that it was not as good as usual, and his life was more peaceful and peaceful...... God forbid, Long Ling remembers the 3 more that he owes everyone, and he is also working hard to adjust his state and make up for it for everyone as soon as possible......
