The decisive battle against the Third Reich

When they realized this, the Soviet command had only one way to break out, otherwise they would just be severely crushed under the tracks of the tanks.

But breaking through is almost the same as committing suicide... The villa chosen by the Soviet army for the headquarters is surrounded by an empty space within tens of meters. Although this is good for defense, it is not good for breaking out. The German machine guns and MP43 will seal all exits. Dead.

These Soviet troops were not unambiguous. They first used mortars to fire a few rounds of smoke pops, and then fired while charging out.

But this is also in vain...

Following the sharp whistle of the rockets, several rockets exploded with a "boom" at the exit.

The warheads of these rockets are not armor-piercing projectiles, but grenades and anti-infantry projectiles... Especially the anti-infantry projectiles, which are designed to imitate the "S" type jumping mine. After landing, there will be an anti-throwing device that will It is thrown to a height of two meters and then explodes. Then the 800 steel balls contained in the warhead will shoot everywhere like a goddess scattering flowers.

So only screams were heard in the smoke. Occasionally, a few wounded people rushed out of it, but they were knocked to the ground by the German troops ambushing at the edge.

"It seems we don't need to wait for the tanks to come!" Qin Chuan waved his hand, and the troops counterattacked and entered the villa.

Qin Chuan walked into the smoke with several soldiers holding a gun. Several officers were lying on the ground struggling in a pool of blood.

"Bang bang!" Gunshots rang out, but the bullets were not fired by the Germans, but by an officer with the rank of major general, who killed his subordinates one after another.

The German soldier raised his gun and aimed at him, but was stopped by Qin Chuan.

Because he knew what the Soviet major general was going to do next, as a soldier, Qin Chuan thought he should give him this opportunity.

Sure enough, in the next second, the Soviet major general put the muzzle of the gun against his temple, hesitated for a moment and pulled the trigger... A blood arrow shot out from the other side of his head, and his half-raised head fell to the ground. The muscles in the whole body suddenly relaxed from extreme tension and swayed on the ground for a while, and then everything was over.

"Maybe we should catch him alive!" Eberhard said.

"It's useless!" Qin Chuan replied: "He won't say anything!"

If a person shoots his subordinates before dying to ensure that they do not leak any information, then his determination has reached another level... The reason is simple, most people only think about it before dying Thinking about yourself, you will wonder whether you want to survive or whether there is any hope of living.

But that was obviously not what he was thinking about.

It's a pity that his actions will not make much sense, because the German army can still get the necessary intelligence... The four Soviet divisions have been surrounded by the German army. It is conceivable that the German army will get quite a lot of prisoners, and of course there will be some who know the truth. Senior military officer with important intelligence.

"Major!" Eberhard reported: "The tank troops have landed!"

Qin Chuan nodded and ordered: "Build a defense line based on Novorossiysk City!"

"yes!"

The defense line mainly faced the west, because there were four Soviet divisions that were surrounded.

The east side also needs defense.

On the one hand, this is due to the unsynchronized march of the Soviet army, or it can be said to be the sequelae of backward communication equipment. Many troops are still rushing in the direction of Novorossiysk due to delays in receiving intelligence or having missions abroad.

On the other hand, the Transcaucasian Front Army Headquarters also received information that the German troops had penetrated and occupied Novorossiysk, so they would send troops to reinforce from the east.

From this aspect, the strength of the First Infantry Regiment appears to be somewhat insufficient... To the west are the four besieged divisions, and to the east are scattered Soviet troops and reinforcements of unknown strength. It seems that they can be easily crushed by the Soviet army. Crush.

The problem is that the German army occupied the city of Novorossiysk. There were not only private houses that could be used as bunkers, but also almost inexhaustible equipment and ammunition in the port warehouse.

Needless to say, the cannons were pushed out from the warehouse one by one and scattered in relatively open spaces... This is also the reason why artillery is more difficult to find in cities. They are usually blocked by buildings, trees, etc. , it is difficult for both the air and the opponent's artillery observers to detect the target.

Light and heavy machine guns and Bobosha submachine guns were also used by the German army... Although the German army had the more useful MP43, supply would be a problem during interspersed operations, so on the premise of capturing Soviet equipment Always give priority to using Soviet equipment.

The tanks are the tank battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment. This time they are all "No. 4" tanks, but one of them sank in the sea due to a malfunction when crossing the sea... The amphibious tank has this weakness, safety Not bad, but fortunately the tank crew successfully rescued him.

These tanks are arranged one by one on the streets, and they are used to block the street entrances.

Before the Germans were ready, the first Soviet troops arrived at Novorossiysk and launched an attack.

The reason why this batch of Soviet troops is so fast is that they are the 63rd Cavalry Division... They are close to Novorossiysk and the cavalry has the advantage of speed, so it is normal for them to be the first batch to attack.

What surprised Qinchuan was that after a short preparation, the 63rd Soviet Cavalry Division formed a formation and launched a charge against Novorossiysk where the German troops were stationed... charging in a cavalry formation.

Of course, this Soviet charge was launched after a barrage of artillery fire, although this artillery fire cover did not cause much casualties and pressure on the German troops hiding in the building.

I have to admit that the scene when the cavalry charged was indeed very spectacular: thousands of horses galloping, galloping like lightning, the hoofs of thousands of war horses beating the ground like thunder, plus the Soviet cavalry on horseback waving sabers and riding. The guns screamed loudly, and the battles rushed towards Novorossiysk like a flood.

At this moment, Qin Chuan seemed to have arrived at the battlefield during the Cold War War. He seemed to have seen a fierce warrior with an iron horse, a tiger that could swallow thousands of miles; a bloody storm, a man galloping on the battlefield, and for a moment Qin Chuan felt a little yearned for it...

stop!

Thinking back on it, Qin Chuan didn't really want to charge towards the German positions on a horse with a saber raised like those Soviet soldiers.

The reason is simple. It is one thing to look majestic, but another thing to see what the result will be in a war.

The German positions corresponding to the Soviet cavalry were machine guns, cannons, and even tanks.

The black holes of the guns and muzzles were aimed mercilessly at the cavalry who were rapidly approaching the German army.

For them, these cavalry are perfect targets, whether they are humans or horses.
