At this time, Qi Mudeng was marching with his troops in a difficult situation. The high-quality update of this snow came extremely suddenly, and Qi Mudeng had almost no preparation to welcome the snow.

Fortunately, all the soldiers from the Northeast were from the Defense Forces, so they still had a certain ability to resist the severe cold. Among the military supplies, there were also many cold-resistant clothes. This allowed Qi Muden to get rid of the embarrassing situation.

But the marching speed had to slow down. The falling snowflakes almost made Qi Muden and the others unable to find the road, and all the signs were buried.

Most of the men in the village were drawn to the battlefield or gathered for training. The only remaining in the village were the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled. They were simply unable to clear the snow on the road.

Looking at these left-behind elderly people, women and children, Qi Mudeng could only helplessly ask the troops to help the villages clean up the snow so that they would not lose contact with the outside world, resulting in no one in the entire village.

The reason why Qi Mudeng was willing to do this was largely because he knew that he could not catch up with the Battle of Moscow. In this situation, it would take at least one month to get over it.

By then, the daylily will be cold. And Qi Mudeng doesn't want to lose non-combat troops due to forced marching. The most important thing is that when Qi Mudeng and others pass by these villages.

These villagers learned that Qi Muden and others were here to help the Soviet Union fight, and they all took out the few leftover food for them to replenish them.

You are here to help us fight, and you can't always be hungry...

This sentence left Qi Muden speechless. He did not accept the little food left by these poor villagers. Instead, he left some supplies to the army.

When we set out from home, the National Defense Force carried a lot of supplies. During the battle with the Japanese army, the General Staff was worried about the current situation in the Soviet Union. It even sent a large amount of dried yaks, canned beef, field rations... to the front line.

Due to the lack of food in winter, the General Staff prepared a large number of compressed biscuits for this expeditionary force. Now the biscuits each of these marching soldiers carry are enough for them to eat for more than a month. High-quality update

So, Qi Muden asked the soldiers to hand over some of the compressed biscuits to these villagers in the Soviet village, at least this ensured that they would not starve to death this winter.

"Commander, do we need to do this..." The Chief of Staff didn't quite understand Qi Mudeng's approach. He asked Qi Mudeng in a low voice when there was no one.

Qi Mudeng glanced at his young chief of staff and said, "What we are creating on the battlefield is killing karma. Even as soldiers, we are creating fighting for the country is still killing karma. This is a fact, no need to

A questionable fact…”

"But I don't want my soldiers to have the word "kill" in their eyes and hearts." Qi Muden took a deep breath and said, "We are humans. We are not murder machines. I need my soldiers.

Know. They are human beings. We should have the feelings that people should have. We will be kind and sympathetic to the weak."

"We hold steel knives, which is to defend our country. But when we hold steel knives, we should not forget to smell the fragrance of wild lilies that open on the battlefield. Because we are humans, not wild animals..."

Qi Muden was trying every means to prevent his soldiers from treating himself as wild beasts, and at this time the Allies and Germans on the battlefield in Moscow had already forced each other into wild beasts.

The troops of both sides were issued strict orders by the commander, and even a street corner, a living room, or even a kitchen, or a bathroom could not retreat. The sound of gunfire and explosions were everywhere in Moscow.

As Eisenhower and others expected, early in the morning after the snow stopped, the German army began to send bombers out to carry out a full-scale bombing of the entire Moscow.

"Chirp chirp... boom boom..." The fierce explosion sounded throughout Moscow. Under the cover of fighter jets, the German bombers carried out a comprehensive bombing of the entire Moscow.

After cleaning up the snow, the Allied fighter jets also took off urgently to meet the enemy. Today's fight was even more intense than yesterday.

The German artillery was pouring its artillery fire into the entire Moscow, and countless shells filled the entire Moscow with smoke.

The air was filled with a choking smell of fireworks, and the whole of Moscow was collapsed. The collapsed houses were burning, and around the houses were a large number of Allied troops gathered and advanced towards various positions.

The German army's offensive was very fierce, and they began bombing and shelling Moscow in the early morning. The infantry troops, with the assistance of armored troops, rushed to the Allied defense line in a crazily manner.

A large number of pak-38 anti-tank artillery continued to bombard the Allied firepower points, while the German tiger tanks directly knocked out those unreliable fortifications to assist the infantry in the attack.

The two sides had several tragic hand-to-hand combat, and even a large number of Soviet soldiers tied explosives without saying a word and rushed into the German crowd to detonate...

The flying of flesh and blood is not enough to describe Moscow today, even hell is just like this...

"We are fighting one by one, and our advancement cannot be described as kilometers now. It cannot even be described as rice. Perhaps, it is more appropriate to use decimeters..."

“Many times the breathing between us and the enemy is clearly audible, and they are even separated from us by a wall. Even if we occupy the kitchen, we still have to fight in the living room. Even if we grab the living room, we are in the toilet.

, attic, basement, etc., we still need to fight..."

"This is no longer a city, but a murder stove... The streets here can no longer be calculated using rice. I think it is more appropriate for us to calculate using corpses..."

"We both sides fought fiercely and crazy to fight for every house, workshop, water tower, railway subgrade, and even for a wall, a basement and every pile of rubble. This fierce battle, in my opinion, is the battle of this intensity,

It's unprecedented. Perhaps, there will be no more in the future..."

This is a record of the surviving officers of the German army after this battle. These precious historical materials were later preserved in German museums. At the same time, they handed over some of the originals to the Soviet Union to express their concern for the war.

Respect of Soviet soldiers who died in battle.

"After the day ends, it is our attack time. The Germans are afraid of the night, so we use night to take away the lost points during the day. At night, we have to do inventory and sort out work to see how many people died and how many survived.

Why do you have to do this? Because the next day, you have to assign new tasks and limited military supplies. My subordinates report to me, and I also have to report to my superiors..."

"At that time, in a house, the second floor was the Soviet army and the first floor was the German army, and all possible weapons were used. The street fighting characteristics did not have continuous enemies and us, all the houses were bombed, and we fought in the ruins, and we could

Everything you use, steel, coal, and iron, must be used.

We can't tell which is the enemy or which is our own people. You don't know where you will shoot. When you suddenly encounter an enemy, you often use a butt to hit your opponent..."

"I have no soldiers who command my own phone at all. The command point where I am is, there is no roof. The house was divided into two halves. I am commanding here, and the other half of the same house is already from the German army.

The German army threw a grenade and we were all going to be killed..."

These are from the Soviet army's description of the Moscow Battle. The cruelty and bloodiness of the battlefield are vividly expressed between these lines.

An infantry regiment lost 37 officers and 1,200 soldiers from the German attack on Moscow to the first day after the snow. The division where the infantry regiment was located had reduced 3,800 troops when the additional troops arrived on September 27.

...

When they arrived at the destination they needed support, 70% of the troops of the 35th Division who fought there first had been lost... The division commander Glaskov had been killed in battle, and the military coat he was wearing was swept by bullets.

Rippled with holes.

There are many division commanders like Glaskov who died in battle among the Allied forces, or in the Soviet army. Every day, a large number of bodies are buried in some inconspicuous areas controlled by the Soviet army.

There were even no tombstones or even any signs in these places. They were buried in such a hurry. The living continued to fight. The disabled soldiers helped to load bullets in the air raid shelter.

The battle continued, the fighting continued. The German bombing was forced to stop after a week. The snow became heavier and heavier, and even when the last bombing started, it began to fall in the afternoon.

In order to avoid danger, Lundstey and Bock discussed and had to stop bombing of fighter jets. However, the Allied fighter jets that were not supplemented were almost completely lost in the war of attrition between the two sides.

German artillery fire and bombing destroyed more than 80% of Moscow's residential buildings. The Allied forces blocked the German army from the core area of ​​Moscow City at the cost of more than 5,000 casualties every day.

As the battle deepened, the German army began to dispatch its heavy artillery troops into the occupied areas and began to bombard the Allied garrison points in a targeted manner.

However, the effect of doing so was limited. After fully considering the combat situation, the Allied Command divided the large troop into small troops and carried grain boxes into waste to lurk in battle.

Every ruin occupied by the German army may be ambushed with Allied soldiers.

During the day, the German army robbed the position, and at night, the Allies launched a strong attack. Taking advantage of the German army's disadvantage of not being able to provide artillery support for the time being, they launched a counterattack.

Often, during the day, the positions that the Germans had just occupied would return to the hands of the Allies at night...

A station can be fought over and over again for seventeen times. A street corner was occupied by the German army during the day and snatched back at night. A house, even if it was blown into ruins, both sides still snatch every inch of land in the ruins.
