Red Moscow

After learning that the fifth company's troops were easily defeated by the Soviets, Villermo asked Becker angrily, "Captain, what's the matter with your troops? They don't even have the courage to fight in the face of the Russians rushing up? "

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, there are many reasons why the fifth company was defeated." Becker naturally understood the reasons why his troops were defeated in a short period of time, and quickly argued: "They lack anti-tank weapons and no decent fortifications. There is no way to stop the rushing Russian tanks."

"That's not a reason." Villemer said sharply, "We rushed here in a hurry, and indeed we didn't carry any anti-tank weapons, but couldn't we find them in the town? Tell the soldiers that we must use all means to eliminate the Russians." tank."

Becker grabbed the phone on the table and connected to the third company: "Captain, the Russian tanks are rushing towards you, you must find a way to stop them."

"Report to the battalion commander," the third company commander reported, "I have ordered people to plant explosives on the road, and the Russian tanks will be detonated as soon as they enter the explosion area. In addition, we also found a Russian 45mm tank. Anti-tank guns, I intend to use these equipment to deal with Russian tanks."

"Captain," knowing that the third company has made preparations for anti-tank, Becker felt more at ease: "Then I will wait for your good news."

The third company faced the third battalion commanded by Shamrih and composed of marine commanders and fighters. They followed more than 20 tanks lined up and rushed towards the German position.

When the tank was less than 100 meters away from the German position, there were suddenly several loud explosions, and then rushed to the front of Shamrich, and saw a piece of flying sand and rocks covering the tank in front of him. Immediately afterwards, a dark red flame with black smoke burst out through the tank body.

Seeing that the tank leading the way ahead was blown up, the commanders and fighters hurriedly lay down on the spot to avoid being shot by machine guns on the German positions. Seeing his subordinates lying down, Shamrich turned and shouted at them: "What's the matter with you, comrades? Are you scared by the German bullets? You know, they haven't started shooting yet. Stand up and follow us to move forward, the army has already broken through the German defense line, can our navy be inferior to them?"

After Shamrih's simple mobilization, the commanders who followed him stood up first and rushed forward. Seeing that the commanders took the lead in the charge, the soldiers were too embarrassed to continue lying on the ground and not moving. Besides, this was related to the honor of the navy, so everyone stood up, shouted "Ula", and charged forward bravely.

The German soldiers hiding in dilapidated buildings or simple fortifications saw the Soviet infantry rushing up, and immediately started shooting desperately, trying to use intensive firepower to block the opponent's way forward. All of a sudden, rifles, machine guns, and submachine guns fired together.

The tanks that opened the way in front saw the firepower of the German army in the town, and they stopped in place and fired at the enemy with their muzzles. After a series of cannon fires, the most powerful machine gun firepower was directly blasted into the sky by the shells.

Seeing that the firepower on the enemy's position became sparse, Shamrih quickly raised the rifle in his hand above his head and shouted loudly: "Brothers, go forward, brothers, follow me!"

Under the leadership of Shamrich, the commanders and fighters of the third battalion quickly rushed into the position of the third company of the German army, and started a hand-to-hand battle with the enemies who were hiding in the ruins or in the simple fortifications.

The level of fighting and stabbing of the German army was already inferior to that of the Soviet army. In addition, they encountered more powerful sailors. As soon as the hand-to-hand combat started, they were at a disadvantage. While cursing desperately, the officers and soldiers on both sides used the weapons in their hands to fight each other to the death.

Half an hour later, the third company of the German army that stood firm in this generation was almost wiped out. Except for a few soldiers who voluntarily surrendered, the rest of the officers and soldiers were all killed.

Knowing that the third company's position has also been lost, Becker said with some concern: "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, the Russian offensive is very fierce. I am afraid that we may not be able to hold on until the arrival of the new train."

"Don't worry," Wei Lemo also felt strange in his heart. According to the plan, the third military column should also enter the train station at this moment. Why has there been no movement so far? Headquarters of the 88th Grenadier Regiment, I want to speak to the regiment commander."

The radio operator did not dare to neglect, and quickly connected to the regiment headquarters of the 88th regiment. When the leader's voice came out of the earphones, he quickly handed the microphone and earphones to Willmo. "Hello, Mr. Colonel," Villemer said into the microphone: "I was hit by a crazy counterattack by the Russians. I wonder when your follow-up troops will arrive?"

"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel." The German regiment commander said helplessly: "Our railway was destroyed by guerrillas, and the engineers sent to repair the railway were killed by Russian firepower. I sent a small force to wipe out the Russian snipers. As a result, we stepped on a landmine as soon as we left the embankment. In a word, we couldn’t arrive at the train station at the original time.”

"What, you can't arrive on time?" After listening to the other party's words, Villemer couldn't help but be surprised: "We have been attacked by a Russian division here. If you don't rush to reinforce as soon as possible, I'm afraid we won't last long."

Since Sokov used three battalions, each with more than 1,000 soldiers, so many troops attacked in different directions at the same time, which created an illusion for the German army, thinking that the number of attacking Soviet troops was at least one division. . Seeing that the situation was not good, the commander of the German army quickly replied: "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I will report the situation at the station to the division commander immediately. However, I think it is necessary to remind you that if the railway cannot be repaired in time, we will not be able to go to the railway station in time." Arrive at the train station at the stipulated time."

Without reinforcements, the German army in the town could only rely on existing forces to resist stubbornly. Several surviving officers and soldiers of the third company of the German army hid in a corner, set up the 45mm anti-tank gun they captured, and aimed at a T-34 tank passing in front of them. The armor-piercing projectile that was discharged accurately hit the side of the moving tank and caused the shells inside to explode. After a short time, the tank stopped in place and burst into flames.

Within two minutes of these German artillerymen being happy, the anti-tank gun was ordered by a shell fired by a tank, and was immediately blown to pieces. The artillerymen were either dead or injured, lying around the wreckage of the artillery and screaming. A tank passing by quickly ran over these wounded soldiers, completely relieving them of their pain.

The battle in the entire town lasted for two hours, and finally ended with the victory of the Soviet army. More than 1,000 German officers and soldiers staying in the town were wiped out, including Lieutenant Colonel Willemer, Captain Becker, and more than 300 soldiers. Soldiers became captives.

While the troops in the town were cleaning the battlefield, Sukov, who was staying in the command post, suddenly received a report from the observation post: "Comrade Commander, a troop has arrived from the south and is heading towards Bilie Town."

"From the south?" Sokov was taken aback when he heard the report from the observation post, and then waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it should be reinforcements from the 21st Army. I will send someone to contact them."
