Chapter 4 Lone Army
"The enemy is coming up!" Okunev reminded: "Pick up your gun, Shulka, the instructor is staring at you, don't let him catch you again!"
Shuerka looked in the direction of the instructor, and sure enough, he saw him looking at him fiercely.
Shuerka felt helpless for a while. Shurka believed that, apart from the Germans, the instructor wanted him to die the most.
Shuerka picked up his rifle helplessly, and cautiously raised his head to look into the gunpowder smoke. A few figures ca into view, then several more, and more and more soon ford a large area.
"Calm down!" The instructor ordered loudly: "Listen to the order before shooting, only cowards will be frightened by them and their fingers will tremble!"
This is obviously aid at Shulka, it seems that the instructor is really on the bar with him.
But Shulka doesn't care about these.
In this situation, no one would care about these things, because compared to the current predicant, it is nothing more than a trivial matter...Anyone who is a normal person should know that at this ti, they should unite and unite to the outside world instead of targeting their own people.
But this seems to be the job of the instructor, and the position of the Soviet Army is to stare at its own people.
Taking a deep breath, Shulka tried to slow down his beating heart.
Then he generously observed and analyzed the situation on the battlefield:
The front is an open area that is very suitable for defense. This should be the battlefield chosen by Gavrilov. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for the German army to attack from here to break through the defense line organized by the Soviet army.
Of course, this is only "in general".
At this ti, the quality, strength, and equipnt of the Soviet and German armies were too far apart... Shulka knew sothing about this battle, the Battle of the Brest Fortress, in modern tis.
When the Soviet-German War broke out, the German army was divided into three armies, the North, the Central, and the South, and launched a sudden attack on the Soviet Union from three directions in the form of "blitzkrieg". The Central Army was the main force of the German army, and its strategic goal was to point directly at the Soviet capital Moscow.
The Brest Fortress is the starting point of the Central Army.
In other words, the Brest Fortress is facing the most elite German army.
The Soviet troops stationed at the fortress...are engineers, communications troops, guards, etc. (Note: Every sumr, the Soviet army will pull troops out of the fortress for routine camping training, leaving only the regint headquarters and the duty units in the fortress)
More importantly, Germany chose to attack on Sunday.
On this day, all the officers of the Soviet Army were on vacation. They went to Brest, dozens of miles away, to spend the weekend with their families.
So, basically: This is a hopeless battle, one that was dood from the start, and history bears that out.
Thinking of this, Shulka felt relieved.
But Shulka didn't dare to relax a little bit, because he knew that relaxation ant death.
"Hit!" With an order, gunshots rang out.
The sudden order and gunfire startled Shulka, because the enemy was still 600 ters away from the Soviet defense line.
But this seems to be correct... If the optimal combat distance is 500 ters, then fighting at 600 ters will give your side more ti to react.
Obviously, Major Gavrilov accepted Shulka's suggestion.
The only downside is...
With a "bang", Shulka, who pulled the trigger, didn't know where his bullet flew. He didn't even know if he hit the target. He only saw soone fall in that direction, but Shulka wasn't sure if it was Hit by himself.
"Bang" another bullet flew out, and the situation was still the sa. The visibility in the smoke was too low, and there was only one figure.
But this is not important. Shulka knows that at this ti, more attention should be paid to the pressure of firepower on the enemy.
So Shulka let go of the gun, and he shot the bullets out of the gun one after another as fast as he could, sotis without even having ti to aim.
Others are not much better, but the tactical success of the Soviet army has played a role...
First of all, the German army did not expect the Soviet army to start fighting at this distance, and the formation was a bit ssy unexpectedly.
Secondly, as Shulka said, the 50MM mortars attached to the infantry by the German army were completely useless.
This is completely different from the last tentative attack of the German army: the German army thought that they could use mortars to suppress the firepower of the Soviet army, and then they could use grenades and submachine guns to win in close combat. Who knew that the Soviet army did not play their cards according to common sense this ti.
As a result, the light and heavy machine guns in the hands of the Soviet army shot at the German army crazily. The Mark Mi heavy machine gun, the Jaggarev light machine gun... the bullets "squeaked" and poured towards the German army.
More importantly, perhaps reminded by Shulka, Major Gavrilov also told the machine gunners to keep an eye on the German mortarers.
As long as you see a German soldier setting up a mortar, several machine guns will shoot bullets at that position until they are sieved.
For a while, the German army was pressed at a distance of about 500 ters and could not advance, and batch after batch of German soldiers who rushed forward fell in a pool of blood.
"Call the Air Force!" Captain Rolf, who was in command of the German attack, hurriedly ordered to the communications soldier: "Tell them not to watch from the sky, and blow up the enemy's firepower!"
After a while, the signalman responded: "Captain, the smoke is too heavy, the air force can't see the target!"
Captain Rolf couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words. He didn't expect that throwing gasoline barrels to blow up the enemy's building would also bring about this side effect.
"Captain!" Lieutenant Jonas suggested, "Maybe we can split a part to outflank the left wing!"
Rolf looked at the map, shook his head and said: "No, Lieutenant, we have scouted the left flank, they planted a lot of mines there, and we are not sure if there is anyone defending there!"
"So, what do we do?"
After thinking for a while, Captain Rolf replied: "Retreat, Lieutenant. We can wait!"
"Wait?" Lieutenant Jonas looked at Rolf puzzled.
"Yes, wait!" Captain Rolf raised his head: "We have ti."
So the German army retreated again.
Captain Rolf is right, the German army does have ti, because the Brest Fortress has been surrounded by the German army and cannot pose a real threat to the German army.
Not only that, the main force of the German Central Army is bypassing the Brest Fortress and driving straight into the hinterland of the Soviet Union as planned.
That is to say, Brest, a fortress originally located on the border, has gradually beco the rear of the German army. The Soviet army stationed here has beco a lone army. No one even knows that they are still alive and fighting **** battles in the fortress.
This also ans that there will be no reinforcents, no supplies, no...
The Soviet troops stationed in the fortress don't know this yet.
