Iron Germany

"Come on! Long live Comrade Joseph!"

Countless Russian soldiers, shouting slogans, stepped on the corpses of their comrades on the ground, and launched an attack on the German defense line. But what responded to them was the intensive firepower of the German army.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Da da da!"

The artillery and machine guns of the German army are firing crazily. The powerful firepower made it impossible for the Russian army to even get close to the German defense line, let alone break through the German defense line.

In the air, the German fleet continued to attack. In order to support the German army on the ground, the German Air Force can be regarded as doing its best.

On the ground, the corpses of the Russian army have been piled up layer upon layer. However, these still failed to stop the Russian army, and their offensive was still very fierce, as if they were not afraid of death at all.

However, with the increasing casualties. The attack strength of the Russian army is also gradually decreasing. There is no way to do this. There is no way for them to replenish the lost troops.

At the headquarters of the German Army Group B, Marshal Guderian also issued an order to attack with all his strength. The five armies of Army Group B, plus troops from Poland and Belarus, Hungary and Bohemia, were involved in the attack. Millions of troops, like Mount Tai pressing down on the top, pressed towards the Russian defense line. Six armored divisions and 12 mechanized infantry divisions went on a rampage, constantly breaking through the Russian defense line. As a result, the troops deployed by the Russian Western Front on the frontal battlefield were constantly defeated or surrounded.

"Order the ministries to increase the intensity of the attack. The lost personnel and equipment will be replenished as soon as the battle is over! The troops of the slave countries can be allowed to participate in the frontal attack. The strength of the Russians has been continuously weakened by us. They It is almost at the end of the battle now. Soon, we will be able to wipe them out." Marshal Guderian ordered.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Marshal!" Lieutenant General Karl Hilpert replied.

At the request of Marshal Guderian, the German offensive became more violent. This put greater pressure on the Russian Army's Western Front. If they could not break through the blocking of the German army in time and escape back to Moscow, the only way to wait for them was to perish.

Dorokhov, the headquarters of the Russian Western Front. Accompanied by a group of officers, Marshal Voroshilov left the headquarters to inspect the front line. However, when he used the binoculars to see the Russian soldiers going to die one after another, his face became very ugly.

"Comrade Marankin, can our troops hold on?" Marshal Voroshilov asked.

"Comrade Commander, we are still drawing troops into the offensive. However, we have to admit that the firepower of the Germans is too strong. During the offensive, we have lost a lot of troops." Lieutenant General Malankin said.

Marshal Voroshilov nodded. The current attack is indeed no different from sending him to death. There are German planes overhead, and there are strong German firepower on the ground. Even, a large number of German tanks and armored vehicles have not yet played. Otherwise, they will pay a greater loss. But knowing this was the case, they had no choice but to attack. Otherwise, what awaits them is complete annihilation.

"Comrade Commander, why don't we wait until night to launch an attack? In that case, the German planes will not be able to participate in the battle. At the same time, their firepower will also be restricted." Lieutenant General Ponomarenko suggested.

Marshal Voroshilov shook his head: "The German Army Group B is on the offensive, and their reinforcements are coming. If the time continues to drag on, it will be very disadvantageous to us. What's more, even if the attack is launched at night , There are still thousands of tanks on the German defense line that have not been put into battle. At that time, the Germans can completely invest in armored forces to defeat our infantry!"

Lieutenant General Ponomarenko immediately fell silent, knowing that he had taken it for granted.

"Continue to mobilize troops to attack! Although the Germans have strong firepower, if they continue to attack, they will find loopholes. At that time, as long as we break through the German defense line, we will be able to return to Moscow." Commanded Marshal Voroshilov.

It's just that Marshal Voroshilov doesn't know how many of the more than 3 million troops in the West will be able to escape back to Moscow.

"attack!"

Following the officer's order, countless Russian soldiers jumped out of their positions and attacked the German defense line.

Although, what awaits them is death. However, this still couldn't stop them.

The situation of the Russian Northwest Front Army is similar to that of the Western Front Army. Even, the situation is even worse. The Northwest Front Army of the Russian Army has only 8 group armies with more than one million people. In terms of strength, it is much smaller than the German Army Group A. In the previous battles, he also paid a lot of losses. So much so that they are now facing the onslaught of the German Army Group A, and they simply can't hold on.

After the rear of the Russian Northwest Front Army was blocked by the German 9th Army and the 16th Army, General Kirponos had to mobilize troops to break through. But unfortunately, in the case of the fierce attack of the German Army Group A, they simply could not mobilize many troops. In addition, the German Ninth Army is an armored army, with thousands of tanks and a large number of armored vehicles. In the face of such a strong line of defense, the difficulty for the Russian Northwest Front Army to break through the German line of defense can be imagined.

It can be said that the fate of the Russian Northwest Front has been decided. It is almost impossible for them to break through the German defense line.

If the troops deployed by the Russian army in Moscow can be dispatched to attack the German army on both sides, there may still be a possibility of tearing apart the line of defense. In that case, the Russian army in the encirclement may be able to escape to Moscow.

But unfortunately, in order to ensure the safety of Moscow. Joseph followed General Zhukov's advice and let the besieged Russian Western Front and Northwest Front break out on their own. This makes the difficulty of breaking out more than doubled.

In the end, the Russian Western Front and the Northwest Front faced the German defenses and suffered heavy losses.

However, the luck of the Russian Western Front is slightly better than that of the Northwest Front. In other words, this is because of their strong military strength. That night, when the Russian army invested a large number of troops to launch an offensive, although it was massacred by the German armored forces. But another of their troops bypassed the German heavily-staffed defense line and fled back to Moscow. However, this army only has a total of more than 200,000 people, which is less than one-tenth of the total strength of the Western Front Army.
