Chapter 1251 Infantry Reinforcements
Ulyanovka.
When the rumbling sound came from a distance, the 16th German Armored Division was ready.
The 16th Armored Division was not formed for a long time. It can be said that it was adapted from the Mechanized Infantry Division two months before the outbreak of the war. So far, only two of their troops have completed the adaptation, namely the 2nd Armored Regiment and the 16th Anti-Tank Battalion.
Just in the middle of the night, the Soviet troops broke through their positions appeared on their positions. They encircled and annihilated here. The tanks in the leading world were killed in almost a few minutes. Under the strafing of machine guns, the offensive of the cavalry behind them was also suppressed. Now, they are just fighting an easy encirclement and annihilation battle.
The division commander Hans Valentine Hubei, who was also the former commander of the 16th Mechanized Infantry Division, was still in his original position after the reconstruction was completed, but he was only changed to the commander of the armored division.
In later generations, this veteran who came from World War I made his fortune on the Soviet battlefield. A few years later, he was responsible for commanding a whole armored army, but unfortunately he died in the end due to an aircraft crash.
Now, he is creating his own combat achievements. The Soviet army in the encirclement wants to break through his defense line? Of course there is no way!
"Teacher, the nearby Hungarian troops' defense line is in a hurry. The headquarters ordered us to immediately draw some troops and organize reinforcements to block the opening that the Soviets had torn from the Hungarian troops' defense line."
At this moment, he received this speechless news.
Along the way, the Hungarian troops had almost never seen any tough battles. Now that the Soviets are going to break through, they will definitely not be able to defend their defense.
What to do? Which unit should I mobilize? My own armored regiment and anti-tank battalion were in front, so I didn’t have time to mobilize back.
"Order the 16th Mechanized Infantry Battalion and the Division's Guards immediately heading towards Gevolong to help the Hungarian troops block the gap." Hubei said.
The 16th Mechanized Infantry Battalion was the reserve team he left behind, and he planned to break the gap if some Soviet troops broke through and blocked the gap, and now, they could be sent for rescue.
This mechanized infantry battalion is equipped with ordinary wheeled infantry fighting vehicles and some motorcycles. However, Hubei believes that they have the ability to block the gap and eliminate the Soviet army that broke out!
After receiving the order, the 16th Mechanized Infantry Battalion immediately took action, and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles rushed directly towards Gevolong along one side of the railway line.
At this time, it was already the second half of the night, and the moon was hanging high in the sky. Even if you didn't rely on a night vision device, you could see that it was a hundred meters away.
Battalion Commander Tik sat in his command car, his body exposed from the turret, looking into the distance, the "fever" exchange of fire from afar made him realize how vulnerable the Hungarians' defense line was.
The Hungarians still have dozens of tanks that can block the hole at any time. Now, where are their tanks?
Even if it is a light tank, so what? The armor of our infantry fighting vehicles is also very weak, but in this case, they dared to rush forward and fight against the Soviets.
Watching these troops of servants fight, it is simply annoying.
Behind his command vehicle is a high-power infrared transmitter, which emits strong infrared rays, like a searchlight that can shine five hundred meters away, allowing other vehicles to receive infrared rays reflected from the front.
Moonlight can only provide about one hundred meters of vision, but night vision can see five hundred meters. So, just about five kilometers away from Gevolong, they had already seen the large number of Soviet soldiers in front of them, and they actually rushed out!
"Quick, spread our troops to the two wings, form a single-shaped offensive formation, and surround the Soviets who broke out!" In the radio, the battalion commander Tik shouted loudly.
The wheeled infantry fighting chariot behind quickly passed the infantry fighting chariot in front, lined up in a line-shaped horizontal line, and charged forward, the wings rushed the fastest, just like a huge upside-down pot lid, rushing towards the Soviet soldiers running out.
In terms of number, there were not many infantry fighting vehicles. They were scattered, and each infantry fighting vehicle was spaced several dozen meters apart. However, their firepower was enough to make up for their insufficient number.
The distance was getting closer and closer, and the running Soviet soldiers also heard the rumbling sound from the darkness, and they couldn't help but stop.
"It seems like there is something ahead?"
"No matter what, let's run. Before dawn, you can run as far as you can."
The sound of talking and talking was constantly coming, and for the Soviet soldiers, this evening was unforgettable.
They threw away their heavy weapons and carried only the most ordinary rifles. They were racing against the enemy and also racing against themselves. They could not stop. They wanted to rush out before the Germans reacted.
However, the vibration from the ground and the increasing sound made them stop.
"Oh, my God!" At this time, the person who rushed in the front had the best eyesight and could already see the chariots appearing in the darkness. They could not see the specific shapes, they could not see the number clearly. In short, they could only see someone rushing towards them!
"Bang, bang!" The 40mm Bofos machine gun opened fire at them.
This fire was even more terrifying.
There were gunfire everywhere, and enemies everywhere! They were surrounded again!
The wheeled infantry fighting vehicles were constantly firing, and the flames that rushed out of the darkness made people look so terrible. The hearts of the Soviets were trembling. They stopped their steps and lay on the ground.
"Tank, where are our tanks?" a commander shouted loudly. If he wanted to break through the encirclement again, he could only rely on their tanks.
No one noticed that in the darkness, they ran quickly and had surpassed their tanks. Their tanks were behind and their tanks stopped moving.
They put all the fuel in the tank, hoping that the tank could take them out, especially the T-34 tank used a diesel engine, which had good endurance and could take them to rush for a while.
However, when people are in trouble, drinking cold water will make them stuck in their teeth. Their tanks rushed out with them and they were going to rush out on the front line, but as a result, when passing by a wide ditch, they just flipped inside.
Running at high speed at night is a great danger, especially after they broke out of the encirclement, they were afraid of being discovered, so they did not dare to turn on the headlights at all. They could only turn on the darkness, and they could not see clearly.
At this time, the encirclement had gradually narrowed, and the distance between the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle in the front and the Soviet soldiers was less than fifty meters. At this distance, the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle slowed down. In the open hatch door behind, a German soldier rushed out with a series of assault rifles.
