Chapter 1184

"Bang! Bang! Bang A row of bullets hit the ruins, leaving a row of potholes. In the novel, the Soviet soldiers curl up behind the ruins to avoid the fragments and flying stones.

A German tank slowly pushed forward in the streets of Moscow, and stopped in a bright place. In front of it is a wide river, which is the Moscow river across Moscow. The river winds through the center of Moscow, and Moscow Red Square is not far from the West Bank of the river.

Although this position is still some distance away from the Bank of Moscow Red Square, the German army finally approached the river in Moscow, which also marks that the German army has really entered the core position of Moscow. The word "defeat like a mountain" is very suitable to describe the Soviet garrison in Moscow.

After the last reserve troops were put into operation, the Moscow garrison of the Soviet Union no longer had the strength to continue to strengthen its defensive forces in a certain direction. They could only be passively attacked and strengthen other positions by giving up some positions. The most direct impact of this is that the speed of losing positions will be doubled. The blocks that used to be guarded by only a few companies have to give up because there are really no surplus troops.

"Comrade General! The German troops are preparing for the assault boat on the other side of the river. It seems that they will start to cross in a short time... Our machine guns are out of bullets, and there are not many grenades left. " An officer crawled to the side of the ruins, holding his helmet and reporting the fighting situation to the dusty general watujing.

Watujing was loading his revolver. After hearing this report, he raised his head and squinted at his men: "more than 150 people from the 1st regiment of the 1st guard division are guarding there, and only 93 people from the 2nd regiment are nearby... The 4th guard division can't connect, The only tank of the 5th tank guard Division has just run out of shells... We can only do so much, there is no way

With the fighting going on, in fact, the whole system of the Soviet troops has collapsed, the logistic supply of the troops has been completely cut off, and the soldiers don't even know where to get their food and bullets. In the end, even the command system of the army collapsed. The power failure and shelling destroyed the originally complete telephone system, and the radio equipment also broke down, so one was missing

At the beginning, because the space was wide enough, the shelter was better, and cars and horses could be used. At this time, because of the continuous loss of positions, these vehicles can not be used. We all run with two legs. If we don't want to be killed by shells, we can only run with two legs.

A month ago, the Soviet garrison in the siege of Moscow could increase the strength of the whole regiment near the defensive positions that the German army broke through, and then gradually reduce the size to one battalion, one battalion, and finally one company or even half a company... Now, every reinforcement has been saved to the level of one platoon or even one class.

The reinforcement of this scale was just a drop in the ocean in the face of the German attack. It did not stop the German attack at all. Along with the depletion of ammunition and the reduction of reinforcements, the losses of the Soviet garrison on the defensive positions were also increasing, and the rout was becoming faster and faster.

This principle is very easy to understand. When there are enough bullets, the tactics can be well carried out, so the defensive positions can be more durable. If you don't have to retreat frequently, you don't have to be exposed to the enemy's firepower frequently, and the casualties will naturally be reduced. But now the situation in the Soviet Union is the opposite. They are constantly forced to retreat and lose more soldiers.

Now, in the Soviet position, the soldiers in a trench come from all kinds of troops and units, and the infantry of a company may be composed of the remnants of several companies. These soldiers may come from several combat forces, some even from logistics personnel, the Moscow self-defense army, even tax officials and police.

Of course, there are also a large number of supplementary soldiers. The composition of these supplementary soldiers is more complicated, including female soldiers, workers, salesmen and teenagers. It is obviously unrealistic to expect these people to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the regular army, so the reduction is not only the number of reinforcements, but also the quality of reinforcements.

The loss has increased exponentially, even to the point where no one has counted. According to the battle diary of the German F group army, on June 25, Germany advanced a total of 1300 meters in the outskirts of Moscow, killing and capturing more than 2900 Soviet defenders; At the beginning of August, the German army pushed a distance of one kilometer in the urban area, killing more than 6700 Soviet "soldiers", many of whom had no uniform or helmet.

Although the actual losses of the Soviet garrison at that time could not be accurately reflected only by the combat statistics of the German army, even Marshal Kluge admitted in his memoirs that the German army had killed civilians in the battle in Moscow. However, because the Soviet Union has no record of combat losses, it can only rely on the German record to speculate.

Soon, the German engineers were ready for their troops to cross the river. The assault boat was carried by the German soldiers and rushed to the river bank. The machine guns and rockets on the other bank hit the Soviet position as if they didn't want money. On the other hand, because of the limited amount of ammunition, the Soviet Union could not make any decent counterattack.

Because of this, the crossing went on smoothly. First, the German army pushed some sand and stones into the Moscow River with a tractor temporarily modified "bulldozer", and then the German infantry rushed across the opposite bank to carry out small-scale blasting operation on the river bank. The smooth and inclined river bank was blasted out with an angular path, which was very convenient for the follow-up troops to climb“ Their geotechnical work is really fast. They seem to cooperate so skillfully. It's like a drill. " Through a gap in a wall, vatukin watched the German army set up a floating bridge in front of him. He said with emotion that about ten meters to his left, a Soviet light machine gun finally roared and swept the remaining few bullets to the position where the German army set up the floating bridge. However, just a few seconds later, the German mg-42 machine gun returned to the Soviet machine gun. The bullets made a dense sound on the Soviet position, and the stray bullets everywhere made everyone dare not look out and fire again. However, this was just the beginning. Soon a German mortar with a diameter of 60mm hit the shell at the position where the light machine gun was just located. The huge explosion set off a billowing smoke, which forced watuguin, 10 meters away, to squat in the bunker with his hands holding his head“ Medical guard! Someone's hurt! Someone's hurt! " As soon as the smoke of gunfire was over, the shouts of the Soviet garrison came. Most of the soldiers in this trench were administrative staff of the headquarters and logistics officers, so it was not clear what the current situation was“ Shut up! Where can I find the medics? Even if there were medical guards, there would have been no medicine for a long time! " An old soldier holding a weapon yelled in the trench. At this time, no one questioned his disobedience: "look at his wound. If it's fatal, you'll die. If it's not big, bandage it quickly. Maybe you can live." Looking at the bleeding comrades under his feet, the former front army officer in charge of telephone didn't know how to judge whether the injury was serious or not. So when the other party's swearing came, he could only take out his pocket handkerchief and help another telephone operator to hold down the wound of the unfortunate guy on the ground. Vatukin once again aimed his eyes at the tiny crack in the wall. He saw through it that in a short period of time, the German engineers had anchored several boats side by side, nailed the iron bolts and laid the rails and boards on them. A bridge building tank slowly drove down the slope on the opposite bank, and had already lifted the iron bridge in the air. Because of the lack of heavy weapons, the Soviet garrison could only watch. They could neither open fire to expose their position, nor rush to disrupt the German deployment. The German troops who crossed the river in advance had already set up defensive positions on the river bank, which was only a road away from the Soviet Garrison's hiding place, about 50 meters away. If vatukin had more troops, he might order a counter attack and recapture the beachhead. Taking this opportunity, he might cause huge losses to the Germans. But now he could not transfer even one company's soldiers, let alone beat back the German grenadiers on the German beachhead. The voice of shouting in my ear has calmed down. It seems that the hapless guy who was hit by mortar shrapnel has not been able to hold on, and has died in the trench. As time went by, Germany's second bridge building tank had already opened the pontoon and laid down the second iron bridge near the river where the Soviet garrison was stationed. A floating bridge was built in a short time, and the German soldiers who crossed the river immediately attacked the Soviet position. All of a sudden, the battle became fierce, and many positions were engaged in a white-edged battle. Under the cover of armored vehicles, hundreds of German soldiers crossed the pontoon and soon swarmed into the Soviet position“ Head of state akado? Long live Rudolph With the shouting like a wave, the German soldiers are getting closer and closer to vatukin - er, Long Ling has a day off, and he will make up for it tomorrow. It's really painful to break out continuously. Please forgive me... Today's two shifts, please forgive me
