Burning Moscow

Chapter 557: Retreat (below)

Seeing that our tank detachment cleaned up the German tanks, the soldiers in the trenches jumped out of the fortifications. Some of them were carrying machine guns and submachine guns, which were specially used to fight German tankers; and the artillery carrying the mortars after the fortifications , Ran forward for a certain distance, pointed a cannon at the German army who was attacking our first trench in the distance and opened fire.

Seven or eight artillery shells roared and fell in the German army's queue and exploded, sending up a large group of fire and gun smoke, and the flying shrapnel suddenly made the German army's strict queue become chaotic. Seeing that the companions around him were blown to the ground, those who hadn't been blown down all got on the ground. The soldiers in the trenches, who had been suppressed by the German firepower, felt the pressure relieved, and hurriedly poked their heads out, holding their weapons in their hands, and firing at the German troops outside the trenches. As soon as our army fired intensively and crowded together, the German army, which was under shelling, seemed a little unstoppable.

Although several German officers tried their best to stabilize the troops and prevent them from collapsing, they stood up in the smoke of gunfire, brandishing their pistols, and asked the surrounding soldiers to stand up and continue the attack. But the soldiers who were dizzy and turned by the shells were so scared that they lay motionless on the ground. Even if they were reluctantly pulled up by the officer, when the officer let go and pulled other soldiers, they quietly fell down again. After these officers were knocked down by random guns, no one dared to stand up.

At this moment, in addition to the light and heavy machine guns still shooting in the trenches, the rest of the commanders of the four regiments all carried their weapons, jumped out of the trenches, and rushed up to the Germans bravely. For fear of accidentally injuring our own people, our mortar stopped firing at this moment.

Another German officer jumped up, waved his pistol and shouted, asking the soldiers to get up and continue fighting. Seeing that there was no suppression of artillery fire at this time, the German soldiers became bolder and greeted our soldiers with their rifles.

The troops on both sides collided. The Germans tried to take advantage of their large numbers and good training and high technical and tactical level to eliminate the four regiments and occupy the trenches in front of them. The commanders of the four regiments were fighting for their own survival.

I hold the binoculars. See two troops fighting together. I was too nervous to speak. To be honest, don't look at all the soldiers are tall and magnificent. But I am not optimistic about their bayonet skills. When he was in Liuban before, didn't the Hojo Tanao said that before he was captured, he was in the Battle of Zhang Gufeng. One person knocked down 28 Soviet soldiers. Although the German army is not as good as the Japanese army, they have more numbers than us, and they have a lot of confidence in winning.

Thinking of the casualty ratio of hand-to-hand combat is usually one to one, and looking at the four regiments who are much less than the Germans, I hurriedly called Gaidar, and ignored him blaming him for letting the troops attack so hastily. I just went straight. Order him: "Comrade Gaidar. Immediately order the troops of the second line of defense to attack and reinforce the troops of the first line of defense. If one step later, they may be completely wiped out by the Germans."

Because the German army is entangled with our soldiers. Not only the tank detachment and the mortar company stopped firing, but even the light and heavy machine guns on the forward positions had to stop firing because they were afraid of accidentally injuring their own people because they were throwing rodents. However, these machine gun shooters are not just standing still. When they see Germans jumping into the trenches, they will also pick up their shovel and rush to meet the enemy.

Seeing this melee, I secretly felt that the front-line commanders still lacked actual combat experience. For the German soldiers who have lost the support of artillery and tanks, they only need to use light and heavy machine gun fire to kill them in the trenches, and wait for the German army. If you can't support the fleeing and then follow and kill, you don't need to rush up to engage in this kind of hand-to-hand combat with more casualties.

In the melee, the German officers wearing the big brimmed hats looked so eye-catching, but unfortunately, there are not a few accurate marksmanship in the position at the moment. Otherwise, if only a few snipers are arranged, then it can be like shooting a target. Similarly, easily kill all these officers one by one. Although I am good at marksmanship, I can only do it in a hurry but I can’t help at all. You must know that the distance between the observation post and the first line of defense is more than three kilometers, even if I have a sniper rifle with the longest range in the later generations in my hand. , Also use these German officials.

Fortunately, at this time, groups of soldiers jumped out of the second trench and rushed to the front quickly. Seeing these soldiers with their guns behind them and holding spades and axes in their hands, I couldn't help but smile knowingly. It seemed that Gaidar had strengthened me to send him a special camp. These have participated. The commanders and fighters in the battle for settlements all have rich combat experience. After they join the battlefield, they will surely be able to set the world.

The development of the battle really did not exceed what I expected. This new force from a regiment rushed into the two teams that were fighting fiercely, like a tiger rushing into the flock, rushing the German team to pieces. . It turned out that the evenly matched situation on the battlefield, thanks to the addition of this new force, the victorious scale quickly fell to our side.

Seeing that our army was powerful and could not resist the German soldiers, except for a few who raised their hands and surrendered, the rest turned around and ran back. Our soldiers followed suit and fired at the back of the German army with submachine guns and rifles in their hands, knocking down nearly a hundred people in one breath.

Looking at the backs of the remaining nearly a hundred German soldiers running further and further, I couldn't help sighing, thinking that if it weren't for the forward commander to lead the troops without authorization, we would use mortars, tank guns and light and heavy machine gun firepower from our position , There was a chance to wipe out this enemy. At this moment, their formation is very scattered, even if I ordered the tank detachment to attack, I did not see that I could kill them all.

When it was regrettable, a shell suddenly fell in the formation of the broken soldiers and exploded. Although the German soldiers were far away from each other, one shell fell, and the blast of air still lifted the body's limbs and weapon parts. Go up to the sky.

what happened? Seeing that this was obviously the explosive power of heavy artillery, I couldn't help being shocked. I thought that the artillery position of the Army of Dilemma was resurrected? Then I thought about it, no, even if the German army established an artillery position, they couldn't shoot at their own people?

When I was puzzled, Pugachev who was standing next to me exclaimed excitedly: "It's great, it's great! The brothers in the artillery battalion are all good!"

Artillery Battalion? ! Pugachev's unintentional remark reminded me of the artillery battalion that was engaged in an artillery battle with the German artillery. It turned out to be Yegonovich and the others. They have been silent since they destroyed the German artillery position. So much so that I forgot about them. I didn't expect to pop up suddenly at this time and caught the German soldiers who fled by surprise.

I put down the binoculars and said to the excited Pugachev: "Okay. Comrade Captain. Under the artillery fire of Captain Yegonovich’s artillery battalion, this German army cannot escape. Why are you still staying? Here. I can’t go down the hill to see if the troops in the mixed battalion have arrived?"

Pugachev reluctantly glanced at the defeated German soldier who was sorely bombed in the distance. After saluting me, he turned and walked out of the observation post.

After the failure of the German attack on the Fourth Regiment's position, no new attack was launched. I called the second group and the third group. When asked about the situation there, the news was that the German army had stopped the offensive.

Looking at the silent battlefield outside, I couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. As long as the Germans stop attacking, it seems that tonight's retreat can proceed as scheduled.

Seeing that there are still four or five hours before dark, and thinking about the piles of materials in the forest camp, I can't help but feel a headache. Although I want to take away all the supplies in the camp. However, due to the large downsizing of the regiments, small adjustments had to be made to the original plan.

Although a lot of materials cannot be taken away, if you want to abandon the cheap Germans on the spot. I'm not feeling well. So when I called Sergeikov, I directly ordered him: "Lieutenant Colonel Sergeikov, immediately organize soldiers to bury the materials that cannot be taken away, and rush to Gydar after dark. The regiment’s defense zone will take over from the defense of the fourth regiment, understand?"

"Yes, I will execute it right away!"

Considering that the four regiments had the largest reduction in personnel, so they retreated at night. The first to withdraw from the battlefield was Gaidar's regiment. I called Gaidar and told him directly about my decision: "Lieutenant Colonel Gaidar, when it gets dark, I will send Sederikov's regiment to you to pick up the defense. What can I do with your regiment? All the materials from the country are buried on the spot, and the Germans can’t be cheaper.”

"Understood," Gaidar replied loudly, "I promise not to leave a gun or a bullet for the Germans."

After the phone number of the second regiment was connected, I first asked with concern: "Lieutenant Colonel Oleg, how many people are there in your regiment now?"

Oleg quickly replied: "Report to the commander, after today's battle, the whole regiment has 700 people left." He was silent for a while, and then asked tentatively: "Comrade commander, after dark, Are we really going to retreat?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel Oleg." I replied very simply, "Judging from the situation of today's fighting, the power gap between the enemy and ourselves is too great. If we continue to fight like this, the independent division should cancel the organization."

"But, comrade commander." Oleg said unwillingly: "Although our casualties were a bit bigger, we blocked the German offensive. I think we can continue to fight..."

"Lieutenant Colonel Oleg," I interrupted him impatiently, and explained to him: "The strength of the 4th Army of German Tanks is very powerful. Don't think that we have blocked their attack these two days. Our division has the strength to compete with them. We must know that our victory came very lucky. The victory on the first day was because the German army underestimated the enemy, so there was a motorized infantry 29th division that was hit hard by us, and the commander was also hit by us. Captured. On the surface today, we are repelling the many crazy attacks of the German army, but this is not their true strength. When they replenish sufficient ammunition and fuel, then we will face an unstoppable flood of steel. At that time, even if the whole division is all fired up, it will not be able to stop their attack. Do you know what I mean?"

My words silenced Oleg for another moment. Soon I heard him choked and said: "Comrade commander, in the two days of fighting, nearly a thousand soldiers in the regiment died here, but we even have their remains. There is no time to bury it, is it going to retreat?"

I sighed helplessly and said, "Yes, Lieutenant Colonel Oleg. I understand your feelings very well, but the current situation is very bad. If you don’t withdraw, once you are surrounded by the Germans, there is a danger that your entire division will be annihilated. At that time, no one will avenge these sacrificed comrades in arms."

Mine didn't seem to convince Oleg completely. He replied very reluctantly: "Well, comrade commander, since you said that, then I can only execute the order."

Regarding Oleg's attitude, I thought he was sorry for the nearly a thousand soldiers who sacrificed. He didn't care too much. After putting down the phone, he called Lieutenant Colonel Corsca from the third regiment. Unexpectedly, because of my carelessness, the Second Regiment was almost wiped out.

After hearing Corsgar's voice. I smiled and said to him: "Lieutenant Colonel Corsca. Your team played very well today!"

After listening to it, Koska laughed a few times. Then asked politely: "Comrade teacher, what instructions do you have!"

"After dark, the four regiments will be the first to withdraw from existing positions. And your three regiments will be the second to evacuate. Those seized materials. Take away all that can be taken away, and all that cannot be taken away. Bury it on the spot, absolutely can't make the Germans cheaper."

"Do you really want to retreat tonight?"

"Yes, we must withdraw!" I once again emphasized the order to withdraw.

"Oh, what a pity!" Kosca said in a tone of infinite regret: "I asked the soldiers to collect more than 300 sets of uniforms from the German soldiers who were killed. I wanted to let the soldiers wear makeup tonight. Sneak attack on residential areas and give those **** Germans a severe lesson. If you retreat, this plan can only be abandoned. What a pity!"

Although Corsgar's plan was bold, it struck me. If he sent hundreds of soldiers dressed up as Germans to sneak attacks on German camps, he would surely get a lot of results. But if you want to fight like this, the retreat time of the three regiments will be extended again, and maybe they will fall into the encirclement of the German army, and then the gain will not be worth the loss. Thinking of this, I commanded in an unquestionable tone: "Lieutenant Colonel Corsca, the retreat order cannot be changed. You should hurry up and prepare for the retreat. Remember, also evacuate the special battalion sent to the second regiment. go."

"Understood, I will execute the order immediately."

When night fell, I followed the troops in Sederikov, passed through the large group of retreating commanders, and came to the regiment headquarters of Gaidar.

When Gaidar saw me and Sederikov appear, he hurried up to greet him, and asked somewhat surprised: "Comrade Commander, why are you still here and haven't retreated with the troops?"

I waved my hand and said, "I didn't see the retreat of your regiments, so I couldn't let it go. How about, have all the supplies that can't be taken be buried?"

"Yes, comrade commander." Gaidar replied, "According to your order, all the confiscated materials, except for the part that the soldiers can take away, have been buried on the spot."

"Then you can take the fourth regiment with you first, and I will stay with the first regiment. After the second and third regiments are all withdrawn, I will leave."

As soon as I was talking to Gaidar, Sederikov had sent troops into the forward position to serve as a guard to prevent the large-scale retreat of our division from being discovered by the enemy.

After Gaidar left with the members of the regiment headquarters, I asked Sederikov: "A regiment commander, where are Perskin’s tank detachment and Yegonovitch’s artillery battalion?"

"Reporter Commander," Sergeikov replied to me very calmly: "They have already taken the lead to evacuate after dark. I guess by this time, they should have reached the designated preset position."

"Very good!" After I finished speaking, I turned around and ordered Lazumeyeva behind me: "Second lieutenant, immediately turn on the phone and get in touch with the second and third regiments."

Razumeyeva first contacted Kosca, and I asked loudly into the microphone: "Lieutenant Colonel Kosca, how is your regiment preparing?"

"The surplus materials have been buried on the spot, and the troops are also assembled and ready to be transferred at any time."

"Well done, leave a company on the forward position, responsible for guarding, and the remaining troops quickly began to transfer."

"Yes, I will execute it immediately." Corsca agreed very readily to my order.

After finishing the call with Lieutenant Colonel Kosca, I asked Razumeyeva to contact Oleg again. Unexpectedly, after calling for a long time, the other party did not respond.

"Second Lieutenant Razumeyeva, what's going on?" I looked at the communications company commander and asked viciously.

Razumeyeva wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied nervously: "Report to the teacher, the other party may not be on the phone, so I can't get in touch."

After listening to Razumeyeva’s report, I couldn’t help but angrily said: "What, it’s not turned on? What the **** is this Lieutenant Colonel Oleg?!" Then I directed towards Sederikov in the distance. Shouted: "A group leader."

Xiejielikov hurriedly ran in front of me, stood at attention and asked: "Master, what instructions do you have?"

"The Third Regiment has already started to retreat, but the Second Regiment can't get in touch yet. I will bring the guards over to see what is going on." Having said that, I raised my wrist. Then the bright moonlight looked at his watch and told him, "In an hour, you can also retreat with your troops."

"Comrade Commander." Sergeikov listened to me. Some nervously suggested: "You take a squad to the second regiment's defense zone. It is too dangerous. Simply so. You retreat with the first regiment. I will take a few people to the second regiment's position to see what happened. "

I shook my head and said resolutely, "No. I am worried that the second regiment commander probably cut off contact with the division. He may have to make some noise before retreating tonight. If you go, even I found him disobeying my orders, and there was nothing to do with him, so I had to go."

Seeing my resolute attitude, Sederikov had to give in, but he only took a guard squad to me to go to the second regiment position. Still not at ease, I don't know what method he used to find Mikhayev's engineering company. Although after cruel battles, there were only less than one platoon left in this company. But at least there are more guards around me, and Sederikov's heart is more at ease.

He was afraid of my resignation. He didn’t want the remaining engineering platoons. He quickly said: "Comrade commander, please let me be the master for you once. The Second Regiment is really not safe. You bring more people over, and we all do. Feel at ease."

Hearing his sincere words, I felt very much in my heart that I stopped insisting on bringing only one guard class, and agreed to his suggestion: "Well, Lieutenant Colonel Sejerikov, since you said that, then I will Bring this engineer company."

Saying goodbye to Sederikov, I took an engineer platoon and a guard squad and set off toward the nearest three regiment positions. In the middle of the road, I met a large group of commanders, who were in a neat line to withdraw northward.

I didn't know which regiment I encountered, so I grabbed a soldier in the team and asked loudly, "Comrade soldier, which part are you from?"

The soldier glanced at me, probably found my identity from my collar, and hurriedly saluted him, reporting: "Report to Comrade Colonel, we are from the 11th Company of the 3rd Regiment of the Independent Division."

"Where is your team leader?" I then asked.

The soldier shook his head and replied, "I don't know, I didn't see the captain, he might still be behind the team."

After thanking the soldiers, I took a group of people forward to meet the retreating troops, but I went all the way to the village where the headquarters of the third regiment was located, and I didn't encounter Corsca. ,

I strode into the command post and saw that there were already people going to the house. Mikhayev walked to my side and asked for instructions: "Comrade commander, where are we going next? Should we continue to look for Lieutenant Colonel Kosca, or go to the second regiment's position to find Lieutenant Colonel Oleg."

I thought for a while and replied: "Since the third regiment has been transferred, it doesn't matter whether we can find Lieutenant Colonel Corsgar. Now let's go directly to the second regiment position and see what happened to Lieutenant Colonel Oleg. Why can't I contact him."

Leaving the defense zone of the third regiment, I took a group of soldiers and walked towards the defense area of ​​the second regiment in a familiar manner. You need to know where the second regiment is, where the headquarters of the group army was originally located. Even at night, I don't have to worry about getting lost.

When we approached the headquarters of the Second Regiment, we were blocked by two secret guards jumping out of the road. Because they didn't warn, they jumped out from the roadside, scared the soldiers behind me raised their weapons, and pointed their black hole muzzle at the two unexpected soldiers.

I raised my hand to signal the soldiers to put down their guns, and after looking at the two men in front of me, I asked the officer, "Comrade Lieutenant, are you from the Fourth Regiment?"

The second lieutenant obviously knew me~www.wuxiaspot.com~ quickly replied loudly: "Yes, Comrade Commander."

I didn't talk to him, and asked straightforwardly: "Where is your team leader?"

The second lieutenant was stunned by what I said, and after a while he replied: "Report to the division commander, the regiment commander has taken the troops to carry out the mission.

"Perform the mission?!" The ensign made me stunned for a moment. When I recovered, I quickly asked: "What mission did he perform?"

The second lieutenant did not dare to conceal, and answered honestly: "The regiment leader said that we have thousands of comrades who died here. Before the troops are withdrawn, he will take people to avenge them."
