My Third Empire

Biquge www.wuxiaspot.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

The shells landed on the ground, flames and flowers made of steel burst into the soft soil, trembling everything around and tearing the air nearby. ∮, then on the originally flat ground, there will be a huge crater, and the bottom of the pit is still slightly hot.

Immediately afterwards, the Soviet soldiers would jump into the crater and use the warm place as a natural bunker. German artillery fire destroyed the village, destroyed the fortifications, and took away a lot of lives, some of them were Soviet soldiers, and some were civilians in the village.

Strictly speaking, the German army still has a long way to go to completely surround Moscow. At least in the east of Moscow, and in the southern part of Moscow, they are still firmly in the hands of the regular Soviet army. And near Kursk, south of Moscow, there is even a huge Soviet armored regiment with thousands of tanks.

It's a pity that this armored regiment was sandwiched by the three German armies and could not move for a while. On the far right of Zhukov, Modal ’s flanking army flanks, directly in front of the mixed Italian and Romanian and Ukrainian clusters, and on the far left is the Guderian g army that is preparing to launch a battle of revenge.

These three combat clusters, however, surpassed the Soviet armored cluster south of the Soviet Union in Zhukov's hands in terms of the number of troops, equipment, even supplies and the quality of the soldiers. They could barely maintain the defense line from being shaken. Said to leave the line of defense and go north to rescue the precarious Moscow.

From the outbreak of war to the present, this is the first time that the Germans have targeted the enemy ’s large-scale armored clusters in a certain direction and have their absolute strength in strength. So this also proves on one side that the German armored forces have indeed become A veritable number one in the world.

In Zhukov ’s combat headquarters, you can also hear the rumbling artillery sound caused by the shells falling in front of the defense zone. Some officers are busy working in their own hands. After all, the entire southward cluster is a huge existence in terms of strength. One hundred thousand troops need to manage too many affairs, so the entire command post also seems very busy.

"Comrade Marshal! The 6th Armored Front Corps called and said that their fuel and ammunition were almost exhausted and asked for supplies." An officer in charge of logistics stood behind Zhukov with documents and asked the Marshal aloud. Road.

Before Zhukov raised his head to answer the officer's question, another officer entered the house. As soon as he entered the room, he stood upright and asked annoying questions: "Comrade Marshal! Comrade Konev, the commander of the 1st Guard Armor Front, called to ask for the time to replenish the new tank."

Zhukov waved his hand, motioned them to close their mouths, and then he continued to listen to the voice over the phone, ignoring the two officers who had already entered the rank. Then he opened his mouth and said to the phone a little dryly: "Comrade Stalin, my troops were sandwiched by the three German army. If they retreat hurriedly ... it may lead to the collapse of the entire theater of southern Moscow ..."

"Yes, Comrade Stalin. I firmly support any of your decisions. Even at the height of the crisis, I would not hesitate to give up Kursk." It seems that Zhukov, who is much older, said to the phone with the gentlest tone as possible: " But I have to state the fact to you first. As a result of this, the troops in the entire southern theater of Moscow will not end much better than the Leningrad cluster. "

"Okay, I'm waiting for your final order. If we are destined to bear everything that fate imposes on us, then I will lead as many troops as possible at the last moment and rush back to Moscow. Yes! May you be healthy. "After finishing the last sentence, he heard the busy tone on the phone, Zhukov hung up the phone in his hand, then he turned around and looked at the two officers standing in front of him."

After giving them two glances, Zhu Kefu sat back tiredly in his chair. The desk in front of him was piled with documents, and there were several telephone lines tangled up and down the table. The corner of it fell to the earthy ground.

"Comrade Marshal! The 6th Armored Front Army sent news that their oil and ammunition were almost exhausted, and requested that food, oil, ammunition and other supplies be replenished as soon as possible." The logistics officer had to take what he had just said again. Said it again, and then stood there respectfully, waiting for Zhukov's reply.

Zhukov did not speak, but signaled another officer to continue to explain his intentions. So the second officer could only repeat what he had just said: "Comrade Marshal! Konev's armored front called to ask when the new tanks could be delivered to them."

"Tell Konev that there will be no new tanks to supplement him. I can only support him with 4,000 new recruits, but he must defend the main defensive position! He cannot take a step back!" Zhukov did not answer the first officer's question, Instead, he directly refused Konev's request.

Then he rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingers and looked at the first officer: "Ammunition was approved as soon as possible to the 6th Army, and then the transport troops were sent to them. As for other supplies, press it first. You will remind me again. "

"Yes!" Both officers got the answers they wanted. After saluting a military salute, they retreated. Several officers from the logistics department in the office are checking the forms, sorting out the weapons and ammunition they just got, and adding them Recruits.

Even the huge reserve system has been consumed so far. The shadow troops that the Soviet Union is proud of, so-called "reserve divisions," have also been annihilated or captured by the Germans.

Now the troops that the Soviet army can mobilize, in addition to the young and strong with no combat experience, there are over-age retired grandpas, and a large number of women and children. Comparing the quality of these recruits, it may not be as good as Hitler's national division combat effectiveness. This also allowed some German servants to surpass the fierce Soviet opponents in combat power and fighting will for the first time.

It has been almost a month since Guderian ’s G Army failed to go north, and Germany supplemented the G Army with more than 200 Tiger King tanks, 50 Assault Leopards, and various other armored vehicles; and Zhukov The weapons and equipment obtained were 70 Sherman tanks aided by the United States, and more than 50 poor T-34s and Stalin tanks.

Regardless of quality or quantity, Zhukov's troops could no longer be compared with the frontal German armored forces. The only thing he still has a certain advantage is the time it takes for the German army to wound. It is only this period of time for the Germans to restore their frontline strength that supports the Soviet Kursk defense line.

No one knows that, just in the far-reaching territory of Germany, the P Group Army, which General Bock was ordered to form, has quietly completed the basic establishment, is undergoing training, and is waiting for their heavy weapons and equipment. Counting this group army, the German army does not count as garrison troops, but the field army alone has already reached 16, with a total strength of more than 6 million. In addition to the scattered troops stationed in the region, the total strength of the German army exceeded 7.3 million, reaching the limit of complete saturation.

This is the limit reached by Akado's efforts to mobilize female soldiers. In Germany, an average of 10 people serve in the military. This ratio can no longer be described by terror, and should be used as "limit". Germany has even begun to abolish the conscription department, because the head of state privately confessed to his staff: "If there is a country that can wipe out the current German troops, then it will win the war."

The Soviet-German War not only exhausted the bones and blood of the Soviet Union, but also consumed the vitality of the German army. In fact, the total number of German soldiers killed or wounded in the Soviet Union is close to 700,000. In other words, one in 100 Germans has been injured or killed in the Soviet Union.

Of course, all this is not known to Zhukov. The information he knows is basically-lost again here, lost there again, how many people lost today, and how many people will be lost tomorrow. So he reluctantly dialed the phone of his already incomplete reserve team: "Pick General Huasilev ... I ’m Zhukov ... Yes, let your two armored divisions move north first ... Yes, we Sooner or later, it will collapse across the board. This is something you and I know. Comrade Stalin hopes that we can rely on Moscow to get more time for him. I want to order a few more days, or as soon as possible tomorrow, to order me to move my troops north Orders will be issued ... so I will let you leave ahead of time to avoid panic. "

"However, Comrade Field Marshal, if the 3rd Front as the reserve team left the support position, as long as the Germans launched an offensive, wouldn't your defense be ..." On the phone side, General Vasilev's eager voice came. After all, it is related to the safety of hundreds of thousands of troops. He had to carefully consider the consequences of the early withdrawal of his troops.

"I will soon transfer the 1st Front to join the sequence of the northern withdrawal." Zhukov said helplessly: "Our bridgehead to the south has now become dispensable. After all, Stalingrad has fallen, Baku. It ’s a matter of time before the oil fields are occupied by the Germans. Since the entire southern theater has collapsed, then we are now here, and it ’s really better to try to rush back to Moscow. After all, there is Comrade Stalin, or our entire Soviet s capital!"
