Chapter 1094: Moscow of Blood and Snow (1)(1/2)

"Kill!!" After the German army entered Moscow, low roars were heard from everywhere. The Allied soldiers came out from every corner of the city and fired fiercely at the German troops.

Attics, churches, street corners, inconspicuous shacks, etc., all became the focus of the Allied forces' firepower. The German troops who entered Moscow fell into a hail of bullets in an instant.

Although they were mentally prepared for the situation in Moscow, when they actually stepped into Moscow, they realized how much preparation the Allied forces had made to deal with their attack.

The moment the gunfire rang out, the German infantrymen all looked for bunkers to avoid the firing bullets. But soon, these German soldiers looking for bunkers on the spot were shot and killed by the Allied forces.

Only then did they realize that there seemed to be no such thing as a blind spot here. There were shooting positions for the Allied forces in all directions, and there were a large number of Allied forces everywhere using various weapons to attack them!

"Click, click, click...Boom! Boom! Boom..." The German tanks began to play their role in attacking the enemy. They rotated the turrets and bombarded every firing point.

Their assistance to the infantry has played a certain role. At least for now, it seems that most of the firepower points have been silenced, which makes the German infantry breathe a sigh of relief.

"Boom~boom..." But just as they were about to stand up, the sound of artillery shelling suddenly burst out from the rubble at the corner of the street! Then before they could react, several artillery shells fell on the German crowd.

And those exposed tanks were directly hit by artillery shells.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." Suddenly, the sound of artillery was heard in the German offensive group. Countless figures fell down in response, and shrill screams rang out from the crowd.

"Hurry! Let the fighter jets come over to support! Hurry!!" The company commander who directed the German attack screamed miserably when he saw this situation. The communications troops were constantly trying to get in touch with the rear through the radio.

"Boom!!" Amidst the smoke, the Soviet soldiers rushed out from nowhere and rushed directly towards the German tank without saying a word, and then a loud explosion sounded!

However, the Tiger was overturned by a violent explosion, the tank's tracks were blown off, and a large piece of the tank's front and part of the chassis were dented by the explosion.

"Damn it! Cover the retreat of the tanks! Hurry!!" The German company commander's eyes turned red, and he immediately ordered: "Retreat to the periphery to establish a new line of defense, and don't attack again until you get support! Hurry!"

Soon, the German tanks received the order. Immediately, the entire German offensive team began to cover each other and retreat to the rear. There was no way. If the fight continued like this, this small force might have to die here.

Because after the tank was blown over, gunshots were heard again from the Allied firing point. Within a short time, more than ten people were lying down.

Those flat-fire guns and anti-tank guns continued to bombard the German position. There was no doubt that the entire offensive force had been exposed to the Allied firepower.

The attack is impossible. The following troops are obviously blocked and have not reached their position at this time. If they use tanks to force their way in, they will be surrounded and annihilated.

That is to say, now that they have tanks in their hands, it will be easier to withdraw them. Once these tanks are destroyed, they will become turtles in the urn.

"Click, click, click...Boom! Boom! Boom..." The sounds of gunfire and explosions kept ringing out. Although the German army was at a disadvantage, they were not in panic. They retreated to the rear under alternate cover according to their own formation.

As for their evacuation, the Allies did not pursue them. They just stopped shooting and began to rescue their own battle-damaged personnel and repair shooting points.

After the German army withdrew from the shooting range of the Allied forces, they gradually stabilized their position. At this time, there were less than 40 people left in a company of more than 100 people.

In less than half an hour of fierce fighting just now, more than 60 people remained on the Allied position. Three of the four tanks that assisted in the battle were withdrawn.

One of the vehicles was overturned on the battlefield. With only the strength of his troops, the company commander did not dare to stay. Otherwise, the German army would be in danger of being annihilated at any time.

"Lieutenant Angra! Can you explain why you appear here instead of in the front position?!" At this time, the German support troops finally caught up.

Captain Kurt, who was commanding the operation, roared angrily at Lieutenant Angela: "If there is no reasonable explanation, I can shoot you right now!"

"Colonel, you can take a look at my troops. Do you think we still have the ability to continue fighting..." Lieutenant Angela said with a wry smile to Captain Kurt: "It has only been half an hour, but my company has been lost.

Over sixty people and one tank."

"The entire unit is exposed to the Allied firepower. If I don't lead the company to withdraw, maybe we won't be able to withdraw..."

Captain Kurt looked at the German soldiers covered in gunpowder smoke and scars and said nothing. When he just rushed in from outside the city, he also encountered strong resistance from the Allied forces.

None of the six tanks accompanying the army survived. They were either destroyed or had their tracks blown off. Those Soviet soldiers were like madmen. They tied a large amount of explosives to their bodies and jumped out to detonate them while the tanks were advancing.

.

The city is full of gunpowder smoke and bombed-down houses, and you can't tell where the enemy may be hiding. Because there may be enemies hiding everywhere.

They may be hiding under the rubble, or hiding by the window of a certain house. They may even be in the attic of a certain building, or at the corner of a certain street.

Nowhere in this city is safe, this is how Commander Kurt feels now.

"Colonel, should we hold on here or withdraw from Moscow?!" Lieutenant Angela asked Kurt tiredly: "The soldiers need to know what they should do now, and the highest officer here is you..."

Colonel Kurt looked back at the hundreds of people he had brought with him, and couldn't help but be speechless for a moment. Do you want to hold on?! With just a few hundred people, can they stop the Allied attack?!

There are allied troops everywhere here, and they can't determine their shooting points at all. And there is no certainty when their own support will arrive.

But if they choose to withdraw, the risk will be even greater. When they first attacked, they had already lost six tanks. Now that they only have three tanks in hand, it will undoubtedly be extremely difficult for them to rush out.

Now, Colonel Kurt also understood why Angra could so easily pass through the position where he was ambushed. It was simple. The Allies had given up on the battle plan of using firepower to clear out this small team.

The target was Kurt and his team. Of course, Angra and his team only rushed less than a kilometer away before being intercepted. Even their firepower was not much worse than that of the Allied forces who attacked them.

If Angra hadn't chosen to withdraw in time, perhaps it would have been true as he said. The entire company, with three tanks outside, would have perished in that position in the end.

It can be said that Colonel Kurt is now in a dilemma. He can neither advance nor retreat.

"Call the headquarters first, report our situation and ask for direct instructions from the headquarters." In the end, Colonel Kurt chose this safest path.

At present, Kurt does not know what the situation is outside. He urgently needs to contact his own headquarters and get information about the troops' offensive situation. At the same time, the headquarters also has a better understanding of the situation of other departments.

Their orders will better coordinate the offensive pace among various ministries.

"The official attack only took half an hour. The five divisions we attacked have already lost more than half..." German Marshal Bock took the temporary report and smiled bitterly at Lundstedt without saying anything.

Although they knew that this attack would be extremely difficult, they did not expect that the losses at the beginning would be so great. It is true that the losses of the Allies would not be much smaller than theirs.

But the current situation is that the German army simply does not have that many troops for them to deploy. The Allies have gathered more than 1.5 million troops here, while the German army only has more than 1.1 million troops.

What's even more frightening is that the Allies have more than 300,000 Chinese National Defense Force troops arriving. At the same time, there are also newly trained troops from the United States arriving from Canada, and newly organized troops from the British Army.

Not to mention the Soviet Union. The troops they invested during this period even made the German army think that the Soviet Union had obtained some kind of machine that could continuously produce people, so an endless stream of troops poured into the position every day.

After destroying one group, the Soviets immediately added a second group of troops. It seemed that their troops were endless and could not be exhausted no matter how much they consumed.

"No matter how difficult it is to fight, we must keep fighting! We only have ten days to take Moscow, and the head of state has issued a death order. We must take Moscow before the support troops of the National Defense Force arrive!"

Lundstedt took a deep breath and said: "Our support troops are already on the way. This time the head of state has mobilized 300,000 troops to come for support."

"Marshal William Keitel of the Supreme Command told me that the head of state was very determined this time. To this end, Germany even launched the fourth general mobilization, with the sole purpose of completely defeating the Soviet Union..."

Bock couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and then he could only smile bitterly. The head of state had already begun to gamble, and he was betting on the fate of the entire Germany. But this was a helpless move.

Now both the Allies and the Axis powers have no room for maneuver, and the two sides can only continue to fight to the death.

No one can compromise, so there can only be one result between the two parties: one party falls. The person who falls will surrender. The person who continues to stand will be able to carry out his own will.

This is the immediate situation between Germany and the Allies. Either the German army will win in the Soviet Union and threaten Canada and the United States. Or the German army will be defeated here, and then the Allied forces will follow the trend and directly threaten the German homeland.

Apart from this, there is no other way to go.

"Order all troops entering Moscow to defend on the spot! The remaining troops will immediately organize new siege troops to support those units that invade Moscow!"

Bock knew in his heart that since the head of state chose to fight to the death, there was no reason for him and others not to attack again. Now they had finally secured some strongholds in Moscow. If they did not hold on, they would only have to pay more to capture those strongholds next time.

price.

"Let the engineers enter Moscow with the troops and calculate the position of the Allied forces. I authorize them to apply for artillery, and the Air Force will assist at any time..."

Bock issued more than ten orders in one breath, each with the purpose of ensuring that the German troops in Moscow could survive.

Rundstedt did not stay at this headquarters for long. He chose to leave when Bock gave the order. He wanted to return to his troops and start organizing the troops to attack Moscow in an orderly manner.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp...Boom! Boom! Boom..." The German bombers began to bombard the Soviet troops in Moscow on a large scale under the cover of fighter jets, regardless of life and death.

This time they did not use the small number of mace-type heavy bombs. Instead, they carried ordinary aerial bombs. Under the cover of fighter jets, they launched a comprehensive air attack on the entire Moscow.

The Allied fighter planes immediately took off to meet the enemy, but they were unable to deal with these bombers due to the dogfights of the German fighter planes. They only shot down a few of them, and the rest could only watch them fly away.

"Boom, boom, boom...Boom! Boom! Boom..." The German train guns were not idle either, and a large number of shells were poured into the city of Moscow.

Every bombardment would cause entire houses to be directly razed to the ground. Even the basements of many houses were blown open, and those Allied troops hidden in the houses or basements were directly blown into a bloody sky.

minced meat.

After being bombarded by train artillery, Moscow was filled with cries and screams. Countless wounded people were rushed to hospitals in air-raid shelters for treatment.

A large number of roads, wires, underground pipes and other infrastructure were destroyed, and water in those pipes was even sprayed on the streets. Some air-raid shelters were even in danger of collapse after being hit by train shelling.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp... Boom! Boom! Boom..." The rest of the German artillery was not idle either. The German army, which had already learned a certain situation in Moscow, began to report back the coordinates of some of the Allied fortifications that had been exposed.

Then the German artillery began to carry out targeted strikes, and countless artillery shells rushed towards Moscow. Houses one after another were destroyed in the artillery fire, rubble flew everywhere, and steel flames devoured the city.

There was smoke and flames caused by violent explosions everywhere. Shelling, bombing, bombardment of large-caliber artillery shells. The entire Moscow was destroyed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It seems that God does not want to see this kind of tragedy of the same race fighting each other crazily. The originally clear sky slowly became filled with dark clouds. And the gentle breeze seemed to take away those who passed away in this city.

The immortal soul...

"Hurry! Save people..." Such cries could be heard everywhere. Countless Allied troops fell under the crazy bombardment. Blood and mutilated limbs were sprayed all over the ground.

They were pretty good. Many of the Allied soldiers who were directly hit in their hiding places couldn't even dig out their bodies. In other words, even if they were dug out, they probably wouldn't be found.

"Thud, tut, tut, dat, dat..." Those German troops who received the order to hold on had a hard time. The Allies immediately guessed what they were thinking after seeing these German troops building their positions.

There is no doubt that the Allies will never allow the Germans to plant nails in this city. Therefore, annihilating these German troops is now the main task of the Allies.

A large amount of heavy firepower was mobilized. They fired continuously at these German troops. The flat-firing artillery was also hit, and they continued to bombard these German troops.

"Annihilate them as soon as possible! The forward troops have sent a message. Their support troops are on the way. We cannot let them survive! Quick! Attack!"

The German army moved quickly. After their artillery and bomber units began to take action, the ground support forces were also determined. More than twenty divisions began to rush towards the several strongholds in Moscow occupied by the German army.

The peripheral Allied forces are now trying to delay the German offensive through fortifications, rubble and peaceful artillery fire, while the German army is using tanks and artillery support to attack the Soviet positions.

"Comrade Trotsky, we have suffered great losses now..." A member of the committee who stayed behind said sadly to Trotsky, but before he could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Trotsky.
To be continued...
