Chapter 457: break out

Biquge EbookFREE.me, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!
Lying on the bed, enjoying this leisurely holiday that I don't know when it would end, Renn was almost moved by his wise decision to cry. He did not choose to go to the war-torn England, nor did he apply to be transferred to North Africa where war would occur, but chose the most peaceful east line that currently seems.
At this moment, he is already a company commander of the 502 heavy tank destroyer battalion, carrying the rank of captain on his shoulder. You should know that in some non-main forces, it is already the rank of battalion commander.
So as a real officer, he has his own lounge, without having to crowd with other soldiers. Of course, because the teaching is special, his lounge is not a lounge for himself, but a lounge shared by five people in his car group-unfortunately the curtained bed for the captain, was Alice took up.
He held a thick Russian dictionary and enjoyed it. For a long time, Rennes ’foreign language level was very good. He studied French and Spanish, but the crew members knew that he once said that he said The best is Russian. Unfortunately, no one has ever heard him talk in Russian.
The door of the room was knocked, and the members of the Rennes car team sitting together playing cards looked at the position of the door. There is a very beating face. Marcus seems to have made up his mind to report Rennes's thighs, and even refused a company commander position to stay in Rennes's army to Rennes as a wingman. According to Marcus himself, it would be good luck to follow Rennes.
"The battalion meeting, I heard that the troops are going to be promoted." Marcus is the kind of well-informed guy wherever he goes, not to mention the 502 battalion logistics company is the old man they have known for a long time.
Ryan got up from the bed, closed the dictionary, and carefully placed it beside his bedside pillow. Then he stretched his arms twice, pulled out a notebook from the personal cabinet beside the wall, took out a pen to check it, and then accompanied his deficient friend Marcus out of his dormitory. The two went one after another to the camp not far away, and saw several acquaintance captains on the road.
When they arrived at the camp, the captains all found a place to sit, and Rennes and Marcus were no exception. They randomly found two seats next to each other, just like a group of pupils waiting for the teacher to attend the class. After a while, the battalion commander and deputy battalion commander arrived, and the meeting officially began.
"Information submitted by the reconnaissance force showed that the German team opposite us was being mobilized frequently, and it looked like there were signs of attack." The battalion leader lifted the curtain on the blackboard to reveal the map inside, pointing the pointer to the direction of the border The Soviet control zone said: "The front of the 102nd Division, where we were ordered to strengthen, the Soviets deployed a regiment of tank troops ..."
The information is very detailed, which shows how well the Germans know the movements of the Soviet troops. Through the infiltration of spies and the repeated confirmation of the reconnaissance forces, the German front-line troops knew the combat strength of each of the opponent ’s troops, and even knew their surnames and commanders.
"More than 50 KV-1 improved tanks? Haven't the Soviets suffered enough?" A document was passed to Rennes with only two pages, which included an analysis of the number and model of Soviet army tanks. A detailed photo explanation is also attached.
"It's more than one regiment of Soviet troops." Marcus took the document and carefully read it for a few seconds, and then said to the commander: "A full 70 T-26s are matched with more than 50 KV-1s. Improved, this is almost the strength of the two Soviet armored regiments. "
The battalion commander nodded and said with a smile: "Like us, the opponent is also a main force, otherwise it will not push us up. They are a main group of the 1st Division of the Soviet Guard Tank, I heard that the Soviet second Khrushchev had visited this unit. "
"I don't see it, it's still the main force. But when the main force meets us, we have to be a man with his tail! Otherwise, we will let him be an adult." Marcus sneered and handed the file to the next one. Car length.
"It is expected that the front of the 102nd Division will be breached. The first position here will give up within 1 hour after the enemy launched the attack ... There is a small empty area behind us, we can ambush in the woods at the end, Waiting for the enemy armor to appear on the other side of the open area. "The battalion commander pointed to several locations on the map.
"How long does it take to retreat." A captain not far away asked.
"Having to retreat in about half an hour, let out a second line of defense to fight the Soviets." The battalion commander clicked the map behind the Soviet Union: "They have an advantage in artillery, we must be careful of their artillery, the woods are not Insurance, you have to retreat to take advantage of it. "
"The battalion set up a supply point here. After completing the mission, each vehicle group immediately returned to the station to stand by. Then we have other combat missions." The battalion commander continued to introduce the mission and said that no one asked any questions. "Return to the dormitory After that, check the items and check the status of the tank. Everyone should not leave the barracks and stay in the barracks for 24 hours. "
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and answered.
The SS 3rd Panzer Division is the ambush force on the right side of the No. 5 pocket defensive position, while the IDF 1st Panzer Division is on the left side of the No. 6 pocket. In this way, the troops of the 1st Armored Army could converge and become a concentrated force after encircling the Soviet troops.
"The battalion commander! In case we fought too hard and ran away to the Soviet tank forces, what should we do?" Marcus shouted again when everyone was already in the meeting. Everyone laughed.
"There is a division of the Guard Tank Division behind this Soviet Guard Tank Regiment. There is a division of the Guard Tank Army behind this division of the Guard Tank Division. If you can marcus the 1st Soviet Union The Guards Tank Army, our 502th Battalion will give you credit to the head of state. "The battalion chief said with a smile.
"Ha ha ha ha." Everyone laughed. Everyone laughed unscrupulously, a bit of a vent before the war. I have to admit that with such a pistachio Marcus, the atmosphere in the entire tank battalion is much more active.
Rennes laughed twice, and he recovered a paralyzed expression, because he suddenly remembered Clark and Carter, the old company commander. Someone in Marcus asked for help, so what about them? Those of them who have left the world, who can remember? Who will help them? Who would put a wreath on their tombstones after many years?
The latter thing is relatively simple. The captains went to the logistics department to distribute canned food such as canned bread and black bread, and went to the tank parking area to check the paint and equipment details. Afterwards, the members of the crew were gathered together to start the test and check the stock of cannonballs and machine gun ammunition.
Germany dug a total of 29 pockets for the Soviet Union on the large front battlefield of the Eastern Front. These pockets were defensive positions carefully arranged according to the terrain. As long as the Soviet army began to attack, these defensive positions would become a big mouth to strangle the Soviet Union's powerful forces, and eat the elite Soviet frontline troops in one breath.
This line of defense was proposed by an undisputed chief of staff on the Eastern Front. This chief of staff was well-known within the army because he proposed that the action of slashing against France was promoted to lieutenant general, named Manstein.
This defensive position proposed by General Manstein was internally called a gear by the Germans, and the head of state prefers to call this line of defense the Great Wall. This gear-like line of defense similar to the gate of the city wall is not a permanent fortification for the purpose of solidarity, but a quagmire designed solely for slaughter. From the day of its birth, this line of defense has only one purpose, that is, to kill the Soviet Union's living forces and kill them efficiently and quickly.
The headquarter estimates that about half of the 29 pocket defensive positions on the frontal Soviet-German battlefield will perform their normal functions, but as long as there are more than 15 pockets to successfully strangle the Soviet offensive troops, the Soviet Red Army will lose more than 1 million elite soldier.
Manstein was also referred to as the master of defense because of this line of defense, because it was he who put forward this line of defense at the same time, he systematically proposed the theory of large depth defense and the core idea of ​​killing opponents. Efficiency defense theory. He boldly put forward the argument that defensive operations should focus on killing each other's forces, rather than sticking to one city and one place, which earned him the reputation of "the first German master of tactics."
Only Manstein knows that the head of state standing behind him is the real inventor of these quirky military theories, and he is only a technical worker responsible for using his knowledge to modify and perfect the shocking tactical revolutions of the heads of state. .
Once the Soviet and German sides are at war, the elite German front-line troops will counterattack with a near-perfect defense and destroy all the troops of the Soviet front-line combat troops. The Germans will run through countless small siege annihilation operations during the large siege annihilation operations. These operations have reached the level of regiments and even battalions. For the operation of a large army of millions of people, it is simply embroidering small flowers with needles on a huge picture. Of course, if this plan can be completed, then this work can definitely be regarded as a masterpiece. .
On the morning of March 25, US President Roosevelt announced economic sanctions on Japan to curb its expansion in the Far East. The Japanese government and the public were shocked, but they did not make any excessive moves. In the early hours of April 6, when the negotiations on the Suzhinomenkan incident had not ended, the Soviet Union's highest command on the front line issued a full-line command to attack Germany.
At 7:00 a.m. on April 6, the Soviet-German war broke out.
