Burning Moscow

Chapter 1212: Battle of Kharkiv (9)

phone-reading

Early the next morning, the heads of the regiments were summoned to the division headquarters for a meeting. http://%77%77%77%2e%76%6f%64%74%77%2e%63%6f%6d I did not overtake me to act as a teacher on my behalf. The issue of orders is still from Baksov. responsible for.

Based on the collected reconnaissance information, Baksov assigned missions to the heads of the regiments. I don't know if it was he to please me or for other reasons. As the main force of the division, the Sejerikov regiment did not get the main attack task, but as a reserve team, staying behind to watch the excitement.

Hearing Baksov’s arrangement, Sergeikov couldn’t help but turned his head and glanced at me meaningfully, as if begging me to tell him something nice and let their regiment take on the main task of attack.

When Baksov deployed the mission, he didn't put all his attention on the map on the desktop. He looked around from time to time to understand the first reaction of the commanders. The eye contact between me and Sergeikov fell into his eyes without a surprise. He saw that I opened my mouth and wanted to talk. He coughed and said first: "Comrade Commander, you may be wondering why the Sergeikov regiment has the strongest combat effectiveness, but I did not let his regiment participate in the main attack, but only served as the main attack. Reserve team?"

Baksov’s arrangement made me very curious. At this moment, when I heard him ask, I nodded, indicating that I wanted to know the answer. He went on to say: "After seizing the outer positions of Djergach, the next attack will be on the city. The street fighting ability of the Sejerikov regiment is the strongest in the entire division. If in the battle to clear the periphery, They have paid heavy casualties, so when fighting in street fighting, troops who are not familiar with street fighting will be caught in a long and cruel repeated tug of war with the Germans."

Baksov's explanation is impeccable, don't talk about me, even Sergeikov, who has opinions on him, has nothing to say at this moment.

Seeing that the tasks have been assigned, Baksov looked at me and asked respectfully: "Comrade Commander, do you have any instructions?"

Since the 67th Guards Division is not my direct line, so the tactics they used in the battle. Still the old Soviet offensive mode. Every time they attack on open ground, they line up in a dense formation, holding guns and rushing forward blindly. This suicidal charge usually allows the Germans hidden in fortifications or bunkers to calmly deal with them. The burst and strafe of fire. In the end, despite the heavy casualties of the troops, nothing could be achieved.

They will soon attack the German positions again. In order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, I solemnly said to them: "Comrade commander. I know that everyone has a wrong point of view. It is believed that to maintain the intensity of firepower, a dense formation must be used when attacking. Now I tell everyone. This offensive model is completely wrong. Apart from causing heavy casualties to our army, it is impossible to achieve any brilliant results at all."

"But, Comrade Commander." As soon as I finished speaking, a regiment commander said grievously: "If we are attacking, our army will not be able to gain the advantage in firepower..."

Seeing that the offense is about to begin. I didn’t want to argue with him anymore. I quickly raised my hand to interrupt the words behind him, and said unceremoniously: “Comrade commander, the problem you are worried about is easy to solve. For example, the infantry is under the cover of tanks. When the enemy’s position is launched, they can get the necessary artillery support; in addition, when the German machine gunners shoot outwards, due to the terrain restrictions, they have to show their bodies no matter what, and then they can be killed one by one with a sniper. It’s better than letting our soldiers rush forward in a rain of bullets!..."

Due to time constraints, I only talked about some simple precautions. It was too late to tell them what "one point and two tactics", "four fast and one slow tactics", "three fierce tactics", "four groups and one team tactics", and "three tactics". Tactical principles such as "three systems tactics" and "three situations and three play styles". But Rao is so. It also benefits these commanders a lot.

Baksov raised his hand and looked at his watch, then waved at the regiment leaders and said loudly: "It's getting late, everyone should go back to their troops to prepare for battle!"

After everyone left, Baksov respectfully asked me for instructions: "Comrade Commander, I wonder if you and the deputy commander are staying in the headquarters or go to the front observation post?"

"Of course I went to the observation station." I didn't wait for me to say it. Kistyakov said first, "Stay here, how can you see the progress of the battle with your own eyes. Did you say so, Comrade Commander?"

"That's right." Since Kistyakov's thoughts are the same as mine, I naturally have to echo his opinion: "We have to go to the Frontier Observatory to have a look."

"Well, comrades, two commanders." Seeing that we were in agreement, Bakxov had no choice but to say: "Please come, I will take you to the Frontier Observatory."

Since our artillery unit is not yet in place, there is no artillery preparation before the attack, but the tank opens the way in the front ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ the infantry followed behind and charged. However, the heads of the regiments seemed to have remembered my instructions and adjusted the previous offensive mode, allowing the troops to hide behind the tanks and trot towards the enemy's position based on squad platoons.

When our tank was only three to four hundred meters away from the Germans, the machine guns on the position opened fire violently. Since the infantrymen were hiding in the shooting corner behind the tank, the bullets of the German machine gun hit the armor plate, splashing a string of sparks, and it was difficult to cause any damage to the infantry behind the tank.

Seeing that the machine gun did not work, the Germans used mortars to bombard. As the mortar shells fell around the tank and exploded, the shrapnel flying horizontally caused casualties to the officers and soldiers following the tank. Seeing one commander after another fell, Kistyakov became anxious. He patted Baksov on the shoulder and asked loudly, "Comrade commander, can you suppress the enemy's mortars with artillery fire?" "

Bakksov said with a weeping face: "Comrade Deputy Commander, the artillery regiment is not yet in place. It is very difficult to suppress the enemy's firepower just by relying on a few mortars in the division."

"What should we do then?" Kistyakov became a little impatient: "Do you just watch our soldiers fall under the enemy's fire?"

"Comrade Deputy Commander, don't worry." As I was observing the battlefield, I said to him lightly: "Our tanks are not vegetarian either. They will kill the enemy's mortar positions."

As soon as my words fell, a tank stopped in front of the anti-tank trench, slowly turned the turret, and used its muzzle to aim the German mortar and fired a shot decisively. The shell fell exactly near the German mortar and exploded. After a flash of fire, the mortar team that had been firing ceaselessly ceased to sound. (To be continued.)
