At 4:45 a.m. on September 1, 1939, more than a million troops of Nazi Germany crossed the German-Polish border and launched a blitzkrieg against Poland in depth, which shocked the world, and the Second World War, which lasted six years and resulted in 200 million casualties, began.

On the same day, in Volkovysk, a small city in Belarus on the border between the Soviet Union and Poland, the new chief of staff of the Soviet Belorussian Front and commander of the First Panzer Army, Lieutenant General Catherina Viktoevna Ivanova, was eating breakfast while reading the newspaper that had just been published today.

The headlines in several newspapers today were all about the German invasion of Poland, at a time when the Soviet Union and Germany were on good standing, so Soviet journalists in Poland could send back quite a few reports on the war.

"Comrade General, General Kovalev invites you to go to the headquarters of the Front in half an hour for a meeting. Ouyang Yu's female soldier whispered beside her.

Because of Ouyang Yu's female identity, the logistics department specially arranged four young female soldiers for her to serve as orderly soldiers in life, the four female soldiers are only about twenty years old, and their figures and looks are also very good, and they are not vases, each of them has strong fighting and shooting ability, in view of the Japanese assassination incident that occurred in Nomenkan, Shi Darin personally ordered the NKVD to arrange several such personal guards for all the senior generals of the army.

"I see. ”

A few days after the German invasion of Poland, a telegram signed by Hitler was sent to Moscow, urging Stalin to play the role of a partner and launch an invasion of Poland from the east, but Stalin, somewhat hesitantly, ordered the Soviet offensive to be postponed, and it was not until September 17, 1939, when things took a turn for the worse, that the Soviet People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Molotov submitted a declaration of war to the Polish ambassador to Moscow.

The full text of the declaration of war is as follows:

The war between Poland and Germany revealed the corruption within Poland as a nation. In the course of ten days of hostilities. Poland has lost all its industrial and cultural centers. Warsaw, as the capital of Poland, ceased to exist. The Polish government has dissolved and no longer shows any signs of existence. This means that the state of Poland and its government no longer exist. Similarly, the agreement concluded between the USSR and Poland was no longer in force. Without leaving equipment and losing promising leadership. Poland has become a place of danger and surprise, and the Soviet government, which may have posed a threat to the Soviet Union for reasons that may have posed a threat to the Soviet Union, can no longer remain neutral in the face of these facts.

The Soviet government could not ignore the fact that these Ukrainians and Belarusians living on Polish territory were its own relatives, who were at the mercy of fate and were unarmed.

In this case, the Soviet government ordered the Red Army to cross the border to the High Command of the Red Army and take all measures to protect the lives and property of people in Western Ukraine and Western Belarus.

At the same time, the Soviet government proposed to take all measures to enable the Polish people to get out of the war, which was unfortunately imposed by their unwise leaders. so that they can live a peaceful life again.

On the same day, Molotov announced on the radio that all treaties between the Soviet Union and Poland were now no longer in force, because the Polish government had abandoned its people and ceased to exist. At the same time as Molotov's announcement, Soviet troops began to cross the border into Poland.

"Forward, if any Polish resistance is found, the ministries must destroy it with swiftness and determination!"

With Ouyang Yu's order, the First Armored Army of the Belarusian side, as the vanguard. With the roar of the engine, it crossed the Soviet-Polish border and headed for Bialystok, the transportation hub in Poland, which was the strategic target this time.

Ouyang Yu's First Armored Army can be described as strong. Under the jurisdiction of the 1st Experimental Tank Division, equipped with 350 of the most advanced A-32 medium tanks, the 2nd and 3rd Experimental Armored Divisions, the Motorized Division has 150 old T-26 and T-35 tanks, and the same number of BA-10 armored vehicles, in addition to the above troops, there are the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Experimental Motorized Divisions. The total strength of the 1st Panzer Army amounted to almost 150,000 men.

Both tank and armored divisions are also equipped with a large number of self-propelled guns, such as the SU-26 76-mm self-propelled howitzer using the T-5 chassis, the SU-8 122-mm self-propelled howitzer using the T-28 chassis, and the SU-35-BR 203-mm self-propelled howitzer using the T-14 chassis. The motorized divisions were still armed with towed guns towed by trucks.

And three fighter pilots and a strong fighter division and a bomber division are also at Ouyang Yu's disposal, Ouyang Yu sent a large number of air force liaison officers to his divisions, so that once the attack is blocked, air support can be called immediately, the high-minded Ouyang Yu wants to launch a Soviet version of the blitzkrieg and air-ground integrated war at the beginning of World War II, telling the whole world that blitzkrieg is not only the Germans, she, Ouyang Yu is also one of the inventors of the blitzkrieg, trying to leave a rich historical record for himself in the history of the copy world。

The Soviet Union invaded Poland with a total of seven armies of one million people, and the Polish side miscalculated that the Soviet Union would take a neutral position when Germany invaded, so the total number of troops in the western direction was less than 20 battalions, the total number was about 70,000, and there was a serious lack of heavy weapons.

The Soviet attack on Poland was like an armed parade, first of all, the difference in strength between the enemy and the enemy was too great, and secondly, the tactics and consciousness of the Poles remained during the First World War, such as the position of a Polish infantry battalion outside the small town of Białostotka.

They dug a very good trench system, arranged several layers of barbed wire and dense mines in front of the trenches, set up more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns and anti-tank rapid-fire guns, the Polish battalion commander looked at the perfect position and was confident that as long as the ammunition was enough, his battalion could destroy tens of thousands of Soviets, and he couldn't wait to fight the invading Soviets.

God quickly granted his wish, at 10:40 a.m. on September 17. The 2nd Battalion of the 7th Regiment of the 1st Panzer Division reached the small town of Bialostotska, and the commander of the 2nd Battalion first called for artillery support after observing the Polish positions with a telescope for a while.

The self-propelled artillery regiment five kilometers away immediately stopped its advance, and after ten minutes of preparation, six Katyusha rocket launchers attacked first, delivering firepower equivalent to a regular artillery division in just ten seconds, and then twenty-four SU-5 self-propelled howitzers shelled for another half an hour, and before the smoke cleared, twelve I-153 fighters appeared in the sky. Each I-153 fighter was loaded with six rockets or 100 kilograms of bombs, and these twelve I-153 fighters were like bloodthirsty vultures, striking precisely at the remaining machine gun pillboxes and anti-tank gun positions on the Polish positions, and finally the second battalion captured the Polish positions with only one charge, eliminating the Polish troops who survived the shelling and bombardment on the positions, and their own casualties were very light.

Most of the 70,000 troops on the Soviet-Polish border resisted in less than a day before they were annihilated or surrendered, and only a small part fled into Romanian territory.

At 3 p.m. on 17 September, when the rest of the Soviet troops had just entered Poland less than forty or fifty kilometers, Ouyang Yu's First Panzer Corps had already arrived in the city of Bialystok, a transportation hub. At this time, the Polish defenders of Bialystok were less than 5,000 people, and Ouyang Yu, who did not want to waste time, issued an ultimatum, ordering the mayor of Bialystok and the defenders to surrender in two hours, and if they did not surrender, the entire city would be reduced to rubbish, and in order to enhance the effect of persuasion, twelve SU-14-BR self-propelled howitzers were also ordered to bombard the cathedral in the center of Bialystok.

Half an hour later, the defenders surrendered to the city of Bialystok and was occupied by Ouyang Yu, and after capturing the city of Bialystok, Ouyang Yu immediately mobilized a large number of trains, and her First Panzer Corps moved south along the railway and killed the city of Brest Litowsk, an important city in western Poland.

5:37 p.m. When the 1st Panzer Army advanced to the town of Terespol, which was only about 20 kilometers from the city of Brest Litovsk. The vanguard sent a telegram saying that a large German army had been discovered, and that this German army was engaged with a Polish army of no small size, and the fighting on both sides was fierce, and the existence of Soviet troops had not yet been discovered.

Ouyang Yu thought about it for a while, and decided to give both sides of the battle a dismount, and let the Germans see how powerful they were, and under her order, forty-eight Katyusha rocket launchers were concentrated. Ninety I-153 fighters and fifty Lager-3 fighters of the latest model were also mobilized.

"Launch!"

"Woo...... Whining...... Woo ......!"

More than 700 rockets covered the Polish troops who were fighting fiercely with the Germans, and after the overwhelming artillery bombardment, there were fighters that covered the sky and the sun, and 140 Soviet fighters swooped down from a high altitude and wreaked havoc on the Polish positions with rockets, bombs, and large-caliber machine guns and machine guns. The poor Polish army was blinded by these two heavy blows, and before they could react, under the cover of hundreds of self-propelled guns, more than 300 T-26 and T-35 tanks and more than 10,000 Soviet soldiers launched a charge from behind the Polish army.

In this way, the two invading armies that invaded Poland successfully joined forces in the town of Terespol, when the soldiers of the Soviet and German armies cheered loudly, the captured Polish soldiers on the side left tears of national extinction, from the restoration of the country in 1919 to the present, Poland was destroyed again in a short period of 20 years, but it is not worthy of sympathy, this is because Poland brought it on itself.

Upon learning of Ouyang Yu's arrival, Guderian, the founder of the German Blitzkrieg, quickly came to meet her, and the two met for the first time in the mayor's office in the city of Brest Litovsk.

"Your Excellency General Ivanova, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

"Your Excellency General Guderian, I am also very pleased to meet you. ”

Ouyang Yu and Guderian's right hands clenched enthusiastically.

The two sat down and were served coffee by Ouyang Yu's female soldiers, and Ouyang Yu and Guderian talked for a long time, during which it was agreed that the two armies would attack the Brest fortress on the outskirts together, and then hold a victory parade in the city of Brest Litovsk.

At 7 o'clock in the morning of 18 September, forty-eight B-4 203-mm howitzers and guns and twenty-four SU-14-BR 203-mm self-propelled howitzers lined up, and there were more artillery and self-propelled guns around these guns, as well as a certain number of German artillery, the total number of guns of the Soviet and German armies exceeded 300, including two famous 283-mm K5 train guns specially transferred for the attack on the fortress.

After World War I, Germany was affected by the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was forbidden to develop large-caliber artillery, and in the case of the development of train guns in various countries, Germany cleverly used the development of the navy as an excuse to continue to develop large-caliber artillery. In 1933, Germany began a series of train gun development programs equipped with super-heavy guns, among which the Krupp company proposed the use of existing vehicles with 283 mm caliber gun plan, and in 1935, after the results of various caliber artillery tests, because the test effect is the most significant, and the German military adopted, and named: K5 (E) leopold train gun, in 1936 in service, until the end of the war Germany still continued to produce.

"General Guderian, please give the order. ”

Both Ouyang Yu and Guderian had the rank of lieutenant general, but Guderian was older than Ouyang Yu, so Ouyang Yuqian asked him to give the order to attack.

Guderian politely agreed, he picked up the phone and ordered in a deep voice: "Fire." ”

"Boom, boom...... Boom, boom, boom, boom......!"

Hundreds of gates roared in unison, and tens of thousands of shells were fired at the Brest Fortress in a short time, causing serious damage to the Brest Fortress, especially the B-4, SU-14 and K5 The three large-caliber guns caused the most serious damage, under the continuous bombardment of these three types of artillery, the Polish defenders of the Brest Fortress only held out for half a day before waving the white flag and walking out of the fortress with both hands held high.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Soviet and German armies each sent 5,000 soldiers to participate in the joint victory parade, and more than 100,000 citizens of the city of Brest Litovsk were forced to participate in the parade under the threat of bayonets. (To be continued.) )
