Chapter 666 Thunderstorm Thirty

.The army was still marching towards Legionovo City two hours ago. After the news of the failure of the 16th Mechanized Army came, it was ordered to launch defenses on the front line of Vooming.

But how could an army with 3 motorized infantry divisions and 5 motorized artillery regiments (2 military divisions and 3 divisions) be deployed from the marching state within 2 hours? They are not armored troops, and they can fight the enemy's armored soldiers as long as they are placed on the vehicles. Their infantry must repair fortifications, dig trenches, bury mines, and arrange various artillery positions, and then they can block the enemy's tank cluster.

But how could the German Nazi give the 28th Infantry Army of the Soviet Red Army time to deploy defense?

When he thought that the 28th Infantry Army might collapse in a short period of time, Korobkov no longer had the intention to stay in the headquarters to listen to the report, and took a few staff officers and guards to the frontier northwest of the town of Vovoming.

Before he could get to the place, he heard a burst of shouts of "Ula!Ula!"

It turned out that the troops that had just been attacked by rocket launchers have been rekindled with the instigation of officers and political cadres, and some of them are preparing to launch a counterattack against the German armored cluster at all costs!

...

"Captain! Look! The Bolsheviks are here!"

Captain Gustav Schwarzenegger was sitting in the captain's seat, lowering his head to gnaw on the black bread-clip hard sausage (this is his breakfast) when he heard the gunner Og shouting.

Captain Schwarzenegger quickly stuffed the food into his pocket, then leaned out from the open top hatch door, and then saw an incredible scene.

Countless Red Army soldiers were carrying Mosin-Nagan rifles, ppsh submachine guns and anti-tank grenades shouting "Ula! Ula!" and charging like a tide.

"Hurry! Get out of the car and block the Bolsheviks!" Captain Schwarzenegger shouted repeatedly, asking the grenadiers riding on the tank body to get off the car quickly, and use the mkb-42 automatic carbine to fire at the Soviet infantry, no matter what, these Bolshevik mad infantry should not be allowed to get close to them!

Soon, the machine guns on tanks -42 and No. 4 in the hands of the Nazi infantry fired rain-dense bullets, knocking down the charge Red Army soldiers one by one.

However, the desperate charge of the Red Army infantry temporarily blocked the German armored cluster's advance. Taking advantage of this breathing opportunity to win with blood, a division of the 28th Infantry Army of the Soviet Army quickly contracted into the town of Vowoming and began to hastily build simple fortifications. Because time was too tight, the Soviet infantry could only draw materials from the houses of each household, and piled up debris such as carts, wooden boxes, and furniture into barricades and anti-tank fire bunkers.

Some of the anti-tank guns that survived the German rocket launcher attack just now were dragged into the town of Vowoming and were arranged at various intersections.

Some Red Army snipers also entered the residences outside the town. Due to the two rocket launcher attacks in front and behind, most of these residences were damaged, but they could still be used as firepower sites. Rifles, machine guns, and anti-tank guns were mounted, pointing directly to the open area in front. Everyone held their breath and focused, waiting for the German attack.

The 28th Army of the Red Army received special street fighting training before the beginning of the world revolution. Each of them memorized various street fighting skills and knew how to fight in central cities like Warsaw, Berlin, and Paris, and how to plant the red flag into the Warsaw Castle, the Berlin Capitol, and the Elysee Palace in Paris.

Of course, they also know how to use the city's buildings to repel the counterattacks of Nazi German tanks and infantry!

However, the Nazi tanks and infantry attacking today did not intend to retake Vovoming. They were just ordered to launch a short assault, with the purpose of killing the Soviet army to the maximum extent and delaying their pace of attacking Warsaw.

For the current commander of the 6th Army, Model, the biggest difficulty in defending Warsaw is the shortage of troops. He only has 270,000 officers and soldiers under his command, and his opponent is likely to have as many as 1 million.

Therefore, any possible loss that may cause significant losses but cannot completely repel the Soviet attack is worthless.

Therefore, after discovering that the Soviet infantry was indented in Vovoming and attempted to hold on to the scene, General Steinna, who was commanding the battle on the front line, decisively gave up the action of recapturing Vovoming. On the one hand, he ordered the artillery cluster (excluding rocket launchers) to bombard Vovoming to kill the Soviet infantry standing there; on the other hand, he asked the pursuing armor cluster to bypass the town and launch an assault on the artillery positions and rear-fire assembly areas of the Soviet 28th Army.

The 28th Soviet Army was already in chaos. According to the plan, they were going to attack Legionovo. Before the collapse of the 16th Mechanized Army and the 1st Tank Brigade, they were still in a marching state. Before they were fully deployed, they were covered by German rocket launchers and assaulted by armored troops, and they were completely in chaos.

When the German armored cluster repelled the 28th Army's infantry's retaliation, three German smoke launcher regiments launched a rocket launcher raid against the rear area of ​​the 28th Army under the guidance of the aircraft.

So when hundreds of No. 4 H-type tanks, No. 3 assault guns and more than 10,000 armored grenadiers rushed over, the artillery positions of the Soviet 28th Army had just been halfway through, and were covered with nearly 2,000 rockets. They were in a mess and in chaos, and they could not resist the impact of the German armored cluster.

The headquarters of the 4th Army of the Red Army is behind the 28th Infantry Army, and some fragmented troops directly under the 4th Army are also around the headquarters of the 4th Army.

When Korobkov returned from the front line in a daze, these fragmented troops were deploying defenses, and the 4th Army Command was not ready for transfer. The political commissar of the Army, Terrejin, was like an ant on a hot pan, circling around the headquarters while carrying a telephone receiver, roaring: "Don't retreat! You must guard Vovoming! Whoever dares to retreat is to rebel, is a reactionary element!"

Seeing Korobkov come in, Terrekin finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was just a political officer and didn't know much about how to fight.

"Comrade Commander, what's the situation?" asked Terrekin.

"They are coming!"

"They? Who?"

"The German armored forces!" Korobkov replied, "They bypassed Vovomin and were coming to us. At most..."

Boom...

The sound of shell explosions was already ringing, and the wasp self-propelled artillery following the German armored forces was firing and bombarding.

"Comrade Commander... Are the Germans coming?" Terregin asked with a pale face.

"Here you come!"

"What should we do?"

"What should I do?" Korobkov sighed, "If you don't want to be a prisoner, then move immediately and go to join the 1st Tank Army... There are two tank brigades there, which should be able to stop the German armored troops from attacking."
