Chapter 904 Motorized Division 44 2)

Helsinki, capital of Finland.

"One of our reconnaissance planes just found the exact situation. A new Soviet force started to move to the front line. After confirmation, it was the 44th Division of the Soviets." An officer put the photos he had just obtained on the table.

Loeb picked up the photo and looked at the Soviet boys on it, wearing autumn clothes. He was stunned: "It seems that the Soviets really thought that this battle would end soon, and they didn't even change their winter clothes."

As a commander, you must know yourself and your enemy. Now, those present are no strangers to the 44th Division of the Soviets.

This is a meritorious force, a strong army that came from the Soviet civil war. It has very strong combat power, at least in every exercise in the Soviet Union.

"Now, we have besieged the 163rd Soviet Division on the front line and are planning to concentrate our efforts to eat this army. We have disrupted their logistics supply by carrying out guerrilla wars in the rear. Now, the arrival of this new force may worsen the situation on the front line." Mannahem said.

No matter how arrogant the Soviets were, this was always a strong enemy and needed to be taken seriously. For now, the front-line troops were just about to eat up the 163rd Division. If the 44th Division was dealt with again, they might not be able to achieve the established goals.

"Yes, we must change the combat policy." Loeb said. As a military adviser, his power is growing, and all this is to win this war.

For example, now, his suggestions will basically be adopted.

"How to modify it?" asked Mannahem.

"We only leave a small amount of troops and restrain the 163rd Division. Then, mobilize most of the troops, use the same tactics, harass and siege, and finally eat the 44th Division, so that Moscow will know that Finland is invincible!"

According to Mannaheim's idea, he had already planned to give up the 163rd Division. After all, the other party's reinforcements would be unbearable, but Loeb's appetite was even greater, and he would eat the 44th Division!

This is different from the 163rd Division. This division is an elite Soviet force. If this division is eaten by Finland, it will make the Soviets truly realize that if they want to defeat Finland, they will have to pay a particularly large price, which is too great to bear!

Of course, this is a bit risky.

Mannahim was pondering that he needed to think clearly. On the side, another general, Silas Vouo, had happily slapped the table: "Okay, I think this method is good, let the Soviets know that Finland is invincible, and they will destroy the 44th Division in an institutional way!"

Silasvou is also an important leader of the Finnish army. His agreement finally made Mannaheim stop hesitating: "Okay, then we will listen to General Loeb's opinion and eat up the elite Soviet troops!"

The decision of the Finnish top leaders laid the tragic ending of the 44th Division, and a big net has been unveiled to them!

At this time, the 44th Motorcyclist was still gathering on the Finnish border.

Motorized division refers to a type of troops that carry out maneuvering and hiking on foot. Its characteristics are that it moves fast before the battle begins, adapts to various terrain conditions, and is maneuvering and flexible. However, there is no necessary cover when fighting, and the combat development speed is slow.

The difference between it and the mechanized division is that the mechanized division uses infantry fighting vehicles, which can be directly put into combat, while the motorized division takes a car to the battlefield and then hikes down to fight.

Even so, according to the fact that the Soviet troops have always been large, this motorized division is well organized, for example, it also has more than 50 tanks!

Since the first batch of T-34s produced were supplied to the Finnish battlefield, the Ukrainian army in the rear was still driving their T-26 tanks to be used as pioneers.

Behind the T-26 tank is their main motorcycle equipment, Ba-6 armored cars.

This is also a feature of the Soviets.

You should know that producing tanks requires a lot of expenses. The Soviet army is too large, and it is impossible to replace tanks in large quantities in terms of cost. Therefore, many troops can only settle for the second best and use truck chassis to modify. After all, the cost of producing trucks is much smaller than that of tanks.

During the October Revolution, there were many armored cars, but at that time they were simply transformed on ordinary cars, as long as they could be bulletproof, their performance was too poor. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the continuous development of the country's economy, armored cars also ushered in a new spring.

The ba-6 armored car was transformed by the Gaz factory based on the domestic three-axle car Gaz-aaa. From the chassis, it is still a conventional structure of a six-wheeled truck. However, bulletproof tires are used here, and the middle is filled with porous rubber.

The weight of the whole vehicle is only 5.12 tons, so it has good performance when driven and there will be no insufficient power.

At the same time, it is equipped with a BT turret, a 45mm main gun, and two DT machine guns. Such armored trucks are just used to eliminate the ubiquitous Finnish guerrillas, and their firepower is absolutely strong.

Behind them were a larger number of trucks, with various artillery and various supply vehicles. They first transferred them by train, and finally completed the assembly. Now, they entered the war zone!

The entire division became a long snake formation, set out from the border, walked across the battlefield, and headed towards Suomusalmi, who was besieged by the 163rd Division.

"Buzz, buzz." The gasoline engine was roaring, and on an armored truck in the middle, the division commander Vinogradov leaned against the back of the chair, and his body was jogging with the vehicle.

The status of the division commander is very inconsistent with his age. Until now, he is only a young man in his thirties. Just two years ago, he was just a captain. During that vigorous purge, he actively devoted himself to the movement and released his youth in the movement. The bosses above his head were washed away one by one, and he also rose step by step.

Now, he is already a teacher! Thinking of all this, he is very excited every time.

He worked very hard in this position and carefully organized every military parade. His troops had the best military appearance during the military parade! He even won the praise of Marshal Voroshinov. Now, he finally had the opportunity to show them!

He seemed to see that the marshal's honor was waving to him. As long as he could win a beautiful battle this time, he would definitely continue to rise until he became the most trusted subordinate around Stalin!

The tank was too bumpy and cold, and it was still good in the armored car. He wrapped his military coat tightly and continued to squint his eyes. At this moment, the car suddenly stopped.

"Boom!" An explosion came almost simultaneously.
Chapter completed!
