My Third Empire

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

Germany has made targeted changes to the Soviet Union's style of play. This matter has not yet reached the ears of Soviet commanders. However, they did not have a very good way to deal with the German air-ground advantage, and could only rely on the city to slowly block the German offensive.

Rokosovsky deployed his troops around Stalingrad, not even deploying too much force in the direction of the Don River. He carefully studied the case of the German raid on France and thought that the defense line was deployed along the river. Unable to completely block the German offensive, so he put all the treasure on Stalingrad, not the Dun River defense line that might be broken through.

"How is the material hoarding work done?" Rokosovsky has been deploying for almost a month in order to stick to Stalingrad. He hoarded supplies around Stalingrad as much as possible, in order to keep the city for more than a year when the Germans surrounded the city.

He divided his troops into several assault forces, and then deployed on the edge of the city. Once the German army broke through the Soviet defense line and attempted to develop in depth, these assault troops would counterattack from the German flanks and drive the German army out of the city.

In modern warfare, fighting ammunition, equipment, food, Rokosovsky from the front line fighting with the Germans to Stalingrad naturally knows the impact of these things on the victory of the war, so these days he is preparing for these upcoming A large amount of consumed materials only awaited the arrival of the Germans.

"Comrade General! The grain reserves are sufficient, not only in Stalingrad, we are hoarding a lot of grain. On the opposite side of the Volga, I am also building a reserve station in case Stalingrad ’s grain is consumed. , Continue to add. "An assistant replied.

Another assistant handed over a document in his hand to Rokosovsky and introduced: "Comrade General, we will manage all the ships on the Volga River. Once the city defense battle begins, then we have the ability Organize a transport force to transport across the Volga to ensure that Stalingrad ’s supplies are unblocked. "

Rokosovsky nodded at ease when he heard the report. He knows how much defense depth is lost for him to give up the Don River line of defense, but in order to concentrate his defense on the places where defense is most needed, he still chose to play this way of killing the enemy with 800 losses and 1,000 losses, because At present, this is his best choice.

In addition, he also holds an ace that the Germans don't know about, that is, the 30 Far East Masters who supported him. This unit was placed on the east bank of the Volga River by him, and he was prepared to join the battle as a vital force if he failed. Rokosovsky longed that after joining the battle, these veterans would eventually drive the Germans out of Stalingrad and complete the final victory of the Caucasus battle.

It is precisely because of the upcoming reinforcement Rokosovsky that when planning his tactics, he gave priority to how to invade the German army. Once the Germans were stuck in Stalingrad and could not escape, then Rokosovsky was confident that the Germans could lose more than 300,000 troops.

In the Don River, the seemingly strong line of defense was actually only Rokosovsky ’s blinding method. He took the classic example of the Germans ’construction of the Zeppelin line as reference, and designed a line of defense along the river in the Don River. , Used to deter the Germans from crossing the Don.

Due to time constraints, the Soviet army has obtained a lot of German outdated information before World War II. Although many of the content has been known to everyone, but the frontline commander such as Rokosovsky has taken over the systematic research. It will be shocked by the German imagination many times.

The more you study the tactics used by the Germans, the more you feel that the Germans have been extremely deceitful at some point. The Germans were good at using falsehoods to disturb the enemy's judgments. For example, using several classic short assaults, they simply cut the deep and deep Soviet defense system into several small battlefields suitable for German operations.

So this time the Soviets also played tricks. They deployed a small number of defense forces along the Don River, relying on fortifications to prevent the Germans from crossing the river. Rokosovsky strengthened some of his troops in the easy-to-cross section of the Don River, and gave the most violent counterattack only when the Germans attacked. Compared with the previous release of water, the Germans were suddenly attacked and wrongly judged the strength of the Don defense line .

As long as the Germans were confused for a few days, then he won a few more days for Stalingrad. Moreover, he felt that it was impossible for the Germans to cross the Don River quickly. After all, the equipment and courage required for a large-scale crossing of the river were not ready for the moment.

So he was confident that he could prevent the Germans from advancing on the Don River for a few days. With these days, he could continue to strengthen the defense system outside Stalingrad and turn the city into a huge bunker.

"A few defensive lines that are easy to cross the river, have you focused on strengthening the troops?" Rokosovsky asked the men in charge of the Don River line again, and a general quickly reported the latest situation to his superior: "Report to Comrade General The defense line has been strengthened, and most of the land mines we have laid. When the Germans cross the river, they will definitely be hit by our army. "

"Very good! Now! We can only wait, waiting for the Germans to make a tentative attack on the Don defense line!" Rokosovsky was very satisfied with his fraud tactics and walked out proudly. To his own office.

His triumph is not unreasonable. After all, since he stepped on the front line and fought against the Germans in the border area between Belarus and northern Ukraine, he has been actively shrinking his troops until now. He has never suffered a loss from the Germans.

In the central theater, he escaped from the huge encirclement of the German a group army and ascended into heaven. In the southern theater, he was hit by German special forces and paratroopers and had no injuries. Now the Germans are advancing into the Caucasus. In order to resolve the German blitz battle, for a Soviet general, there were Voroshilov and Khrushchev before, and after Timoshenko, he was completely proud of his capital.

...

Just as Rokosovsky was secretly complacent, on the west bank of the Don River, Guderian was looking at the torrential river and issuing his offensive order. Although he did not know whether the Soviet army was so eager to shrink its troops, whether it was for the Don River defense line, or for the Stalingrad defense line behind him, but he knew that if the Soviet army really launched a battle with him on the Dun River defense line, then the situation would be Good for the German army.

"As long as the Soviets do not put their troops in Stalingrad and fight endless street battles with us. Then even across the Don River, we have a way to wipe them out in the wild." Goodrian's assistant to himself Said: "Order the troops and start a tentative attack!"

The two German tanks were in a temporary bunker that was temporarily constructed, with tank guns pointing at the opposite river bank. German engineers began to build pontoons on the banks of the river. Several armored engineering vehicles placed some equipment by the river. Engineers on the trenches began to inflate rubber rafts.

Farther away, several German assault boats have been thrown into the water of the Don River by the infantry. The soldiers jumped into the boat on the icy river. The motor began to roar. The assault boat broke through the river and rolled up the bow of the ship. Rush across the bank.

The Germans on the ship bowed their heads, and the bow also carried a machine gun for cover. Behind them, the comrades on the river bank are arranging mortars and several machine guns to cover the position. Everyone is watching the situation on the opposite bank. As soon as there is wind and grass, they will cover their comrades with intensive fire to establish on the opposite bank. Frontier position.

"Suddenly!" On the Soviet position on the other side, a machine gun fired a row of bullets. These bullets hit the river next to the assault boat, splashing a column of water, and the river water splashed onto the face of the German soldiers above the assault boat. But behind these German troops, the weapons that supported them immediately roared. Two German machine guns fired wildly, and tracers flew in a line to the Soviet position.

The firepower of both sides gradually escalated, and a shell fell into the water of the Don River. Although it was a little far from the German assault boat, Guderian frowned as he stood on the river bank to watch the battle. He felt that the other party seemed to want to prevent the Germans from advancing, but he didn't know why. This was a far cry from the expected firepower density of the Don River line.

"This is not the firepower that a division should have. When we were in France, the other party's firepower was at least three times that." Guderian said to his deputy with some disappointment: "It seems that we still have to inform Küchler, Prepare him for a tough street fight. "

"General, this is also something that can't be done. The enemy is more difficult than we thought. The news from General Manstein, the Soviets are also using urban street fighting to block, and the battle is very difficult." He behind him The deputy looked at the fire from the opposite bank and said. As he said these words, an assault boat was sunk and the entire German army above was annihilated.

Guderian also saw this scene, he packed his telescope, and then turned away from the river bank and walked to his armored command vehicle: "Began to shell and cover the crossing! The Soviets did not put any decent force on the Don River at all. Do n’t waste your time here! Break through this line of defense and push Stalingrad! "

"Yes! General! Break through the Don River defense line! Enter Stalingrad!" The assistant answered immediately, and then walked to the armored command vehicle. He called the several division commanders on the front line: "Group Army Command orders, within 2 hours, Break through the Don River line! The main attack begins! "
