Chapter 1450: Desperate Breakthrough
"We lack anti-tank firepower. In the previous breakthrough battles, our brothers and various breakthrough tactics were tried, but the effect was very poor." In the command center, General Kilbonos listened to the report of his subordinates: "The only successful experience was that in Belarus, a unit fled from the swamp in the direction of the Germans."
In the face of Germany's huge armored forces, any breakthrough battle is destined to be thrilling, and there are quite few successful examples. Now, the Soviet army has to break through without fuel and anti-tank weapons.
The task is quite difficult.
Admiral Kilbonos gritted his teeth and said, "We have no other way now. Just count as much as we can go out." His eyes were fixed on the map. The Germans' actions were too fast. In just a short time, they had been divided into six pieces.
The 2nd Army, stationed 20 to 30 kilometers north of the town of Zorotonosha, was surrounded by German troops in the Orzhe area.
The 37th and 2nd Army stationed 40 to 50 kilometers southeast of Kiev, the 2nd Army stationed in the southeast of Piliakin, the 5th Army stationed in the east of Piliakin, the 37th Army stationed 0 to 5 kilometers northeast of Kiev, and the 37th Army stationed in the Yagojing area.
The entire Southwest Front Army, more than 700,000 troops, was divided and surrounded. They could have left here and played their role on a larger stage.
Admiral Kilbonos was unsure. Maybe the defense in the west was empty, but they could not break west, otherwise they would never come back. It was similar to surrendering to the enemy. They could only go east and then east to open a bloody road!
"Tonight, the entire army will break through." General Kilbonos said: "Move all the tanks we can drive, put together the fuel we can get together, and give all the tank troops."
After a pause, he continued: "We also contributed all of us in command of the car."
The fuel supply has been cut off. They don’t have much fuel on hand, so they can only give up the command car. Moreover, it is better to hike when breaking through the dark night and riding the command car, so that the goal will be more conspicuous.
Admiral Kilbonos didn't know that tonight was his last night.
The night gradually fell. In the dark night, a small transport plane landed on the open space outside the city of Kiev. As soon as it landed, several senior officials waiting beside each other hurriedly climbed up.
Temuxin Ge's face looked ugly. As a marshal, he felt deeply guilty for his behavior. After being surrounded, he actually fled in a plane and left behind the hundreds of thousands of troops in the encirclement.
But Khrushchev did not have the psychological pressure like him. For Khrushchev, all this had nothing to do with him. It was purely caused by Stalin's mistake. This stubborn man was not worthy of leading the Soviets at all!
Well, this idea must be kept in mind and must not be expressed.
The plane took off and entered the dark night sky again. As the sound of the engine gradually disappeared, the supreme commander of the Southwest Front Army had left.
"Boom, boom!" At this moment, thousands of cannons fired together.
The Kiev defenders concentrated all the artillery fire and carried out the first and last artillery bombardment towards the German encirclement.
After the shelling, they were about to break through. Countless soldiers were holding rifles in their hands and bayonets, waiting for the order to charge.
The commander of the Front Army, General Kilbonos, the member of the Military Commission, and Major General Burmiskenko, and Chief of Staff Major General Tupikov, stood together. They were all holding Bobosha submachine guns, wearing the same military uniform as ordinary soldiers, and took off their rank signs. At this moment, they were ordinary soldiers.
Next to them was a guard composed of dozens of people, all of which were all bobosha. The row in front was holding a turntable machine gun. After a while, they had to rely on powerful firepower to rush out along the opened gap!
Almost one minute after his own artillery fire opened, rockets in the sky headed towards the Soviet artillery positions!
The Germans' reaction was so fast that it was unbelievable!
The Cirick organ roared and flew towards the Soviet artillery positions. Soon, their artillery positions were blown up, exploded everywhere, screaming everywhere.
"Charge!" said General Kilbonos. He originally planned to let the artillery bombard violently and shoot out all the inventory of shells. Who would have thought that in a short time, the Germans would fight back, and the Germans' artillery fire became more intense, so that almost no time for them to counterattack.
The artillery troops were reimbursed, and if they didn't charge, it would be too late.
Bounce, bounce!
A famous Soviet soldier jumped out of his position and ran forward. In the darkness, they ran very fast. At the same time, they felt a little hot in their bodies.
Infrared rays cannot be seen with the naked eye, but they have a thermal effect. When sitting next to the stove, you will feel the heat. In fact, it is the infrared rays radiated from the stove.
The German infrared headlights have already illuminated the invisible infrared rays, shined on the position, on everyone's body, reflected back, and can be seen clearly in the infrared receiving device.
"Fire!" Just as the Soviet soldiers in the front had already run up to a distance of 500 meters, suddenly, a terrible machine gun sound came from the opposite side.
The sound of a chainsaw, the flames coming out of the muzzle in the distance, and the arc dragged out by the tracer bullet in the dark, quickly turned this place into a place of death!
Rows of Soviet soldiers fell down screaming, and the soldiers behind rushed forward fearlessly. At this moment, they seemed to have lost their sense of pain and judgment, just like parameciums with only a simple structure, only knowing to rush forward!
"Dadada..." During the charge, the Soviet army here was also firing and counterattacking. A team of Soviet soldiers were running and shooting while running. They soon attracted the attention of the German army.
"Boom, boom!" Several mortar shells flew towards the group of Soviet soldiers. The German gunners were aiming so accurately in the darkness, and the shells exploded accurately among the Soviet soldiers!
Shields flying.
Admiral Kilbonos fell down, the muzzle of the submachine gun in his hand rose, and shot the last bullet into the sky, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
Military Commission member Bulmisgenko fell down, a piece of debris hit his abdomen, all his intestines flowed out, and he opened his eyes wide, looking at his intestines, and breathing.
Chief of Staff Major General Tupikov did not fall down. He leaned the gun in his hand to the ground. His body was still standing upright. He used all his strength to shout loudly: "Comrades, rush out! Comrade Stalin is waiting for us!"
