"What did you say!?"

Just like that, in that moment.

Malashenko seemed to have changed. His expression suddenly changed, and he stared at Kotin with a serious and impatient look. He kept asking questions, which directly made Comrade Kotin a little at a loss.

"I didn't say anything special, I was just talking casually."

"No, no, no, you said it, you just said it! I'm sure, please repeat it again quickly, completely! Think about it!"

""

Malashenko's request was very strange, and he did not explain the reason. However, seeing how impatient Malashenko was, Kogin did not intend to ask further questions, so he simply followed Malashenko's request and spoke slowly again.

"I just said that you don't need to worry about these things. Comrade Marshal has his own plans. He must have received some permission."

"anything else?!"

Malashenko still refused to give up and kept asking questions. Seeing this situation, Kogin was helpless and could only continue to speak.

"I also said that there might be some way to remove this thing with as few civilians inside as possible. The front army headquarters already has a plan."

"Yes! That's right, this is it! This is the key, thank you for thinking of it!"

? ? ?

Kogin's expression after hearing this was almost like a question mark on his face, and he was just confused by Malashenko's words.

"Have you thought of a solution? Do you have a solution?"

"Yes, of course! Thanks to you for reminding me!"

Since Malashenko said this, Kogin must be all ears, but what Malashenko said next was really unexpected by Kogin.

"We all know that the movement of civilians in the city is predictable. In most cases, people will stay in their homes and not come out. The dangers on the streets are obvious, and they may even be raped by the scum. Take them away. Unless the flames of war are burning in their faces and they have to leave, no, it can even be said that some people will not leave if the flames of war are burning in their faces. There are always people who think it is safer to stay at home. We have met many in the past. "

""

Ke Jing didn't quite understand, he was really confused, so he had no choice but to continue asking.

"But what does this have to do with our shelling of anti-aircraft towers?"

"Of course it does matter!"

Malashenko simply answered without thinking. Perhaps because he felt that dictation alone was not clear enough, he even took out the war zone map from his document bag, unfolded it with both hands and placed it in front of Kogin. continued.

"Look, the positions of several air defense towers are quite special. Connecting them can just form an air defense circle for the main core area of ​​​​Berlin City. Several towers are located in the core of Berlin City or close to the core area. "

"Our siege troops will definitely attack the city from the outside in, and the civilians who are avoiding the war will definitely continue to compress into the core area of ​​the city as the front lines in the city advance."

"This is a step-by-step process, not completed in an instant. It will not be said that as soon as our soldiers touched the edge of Berlin and opened fire, all the civilians in the city were frightened into the core area. The entire city of Berlin was very All the buildings in the core area will be empty, and that won’t be the case.”

"Of course we can't take down the air defense towers before we have shown our strength. The effect is not strong enough. Since it is to reduce morale and the will to resist, we must let the German defenders see how powerful we are. The effect is best when you are beaten to a bloody head by the siege troops and you know it hurts before taking action. "

"Then the question is, how can we not only ensure that there are as few civilians in the air defense tower as possible, but also ensure that the Germans have seen enough of our power to have the best impact by removing key landmarks? When?"

"Thinking about the two together, I think the most appropriate time is when our siege troops advance to the periphery of Berlin close to the edge of the core area, which is the middle period of the entire Berlin campaign."

"At this time, not many civilians were frightened into the core area and hid in the air defense towers. The German defenders who resisted also saw how powerful we were. The key is that we gave them enough lessons. The resistance's swift and fierce offensive captured a large area of ​​the city in a short period of time, broke into depth, and inflicted a large number of enemy force casualties, making them feel that the Red Army was unstoppable. Only in this way could the Germans feel the pain before they retreated to the core area. "

“Although this cannot completely avoid the civilian casualties caused by pulling out the Berlin Tower, it can to a certain extent reduce it as much as possible. To sum up, it is to find a balance between the ideal strike effect and civilian casualties. While ensuring that the strike effect is satisfactory, civilian casualties should be reduced as much as possible, so that it is the best from any perspective.”

"What do you think of this? Do you have any comments or suggestions?"

""

We have to admit that the plan proposed by Malashenko is at least theoretically feasible.

The key lies in the actual execution stage, whether the onslaught in the middle and early stages can be carried out well and beautifully, enough to hurt the Germans, severely dampen their energy and cause a lot of casualties.

If you fail to do this, you may even say that the German is not hurt, but you will be bruised and swollen when you hit the iron plate, and you will lose many soldiers and suffer heavy casualties, and you will not be able to advance very far in depth.

At this time, the Germans must still have hope, even if it is just an unrealistic fantasy and illusion, it is an undeniable hope.

In this case, using the red Stalingrad to remove the anti-aircraft tower with one click cannot be said to have no effect at all, but it may have some annoying negative effects.

"If you can't attack the city, just stay far away and use artillery fire" will only be regarded as a sign of incompetence. If you can't do it in the line, just go far away and shell it. What is this if it's not incompetence? Those Nazi lunatics and bloodthirsty fighting maniacs who accounted for a very high proportion in Berlin would be fine if they didn't laugh at the Red Army and say, "That's it?"

Expect them to be afraid of death?

If they are afraid of death, they will not stay here. This number of people will even look forward to continuing to fight with the Red Army siege troops, because the opponent is indeed not beautiful enough and incapable of being furious, which will only further stimulate the desire to fight.

To make them feel that their death is meaningless, the Russians have a faster and more efficient way to kill them after performing a powerful explosion. And the next wave of killing blows will come quickly and hit you in the face whether you are prepared or not.

Only in this way can it be called an effective blow to morale and resistance. Since Nazi lunatics and bloodthirsty fighting maniacs are mutated from humans, there is a way to beat them back to their original form with strong and irresistible destruction. When the will of most ordinary Germans has collapsed, even if a small number of lunatics continue to go crazy, it will not help. This is the most ideal strike effect.
