Chapter 223： Pavlovs counterattack (1/2)
The plan of the plane crash actually failed! When the news reached Franco, facing his subordinates, Franco was very angry.
Coses lowered his head, as if he was a pupil who had not scored a hundred points in the test. He lowered his head and squirmed his mouth: ”Kubala has committed suicide, so we can completely put this matter aside from our relationship. All of this is Kubala’s own behavior. Kubala wanted to replace General Mora and become the commander of the Northern Army, so he murdered General Mora.”
”Cosis, you idiot!” Franco said: ”General San Juljo died in a plane crash. Now, General Mora is almost in a plane crash. As long as he associates these things together, he can doubt Come to us!”
Franco values the Northern Army, which is an indispensable force of the National Army in the Spanish Civil War. If the National Army is in a civil war because of this incident, it will instantly lose half of its power and, moreover, the plan to subvert the Spanish regime. , It will become quite difficult.
”Also, after General Mora arrived in Zaragoza, he gave a big talk.” Cosis continued: ”In order to avoid accidents, we did not arrange for personnel to assassinate him. However, it now appears that the eastern provinces, Are spreading the heroic deeds of General Mora.”
Franco had a dark face and said nothing. It was already obvious. General Mora definitely smelled something, so Mora gave speeches everywhere in Zaragoza and accumulated political capital!
Damn, what should I do? Now that Mora is prepared, it is not easy to assassinate him. If it fails next time, then Mora will definitely tear his skin off.
Just when Franco didn't know how to choose, José ran in in a panic and shouted at Franco: ”General, it's not good. The Republican Army in Madrid launched a large-scale counterattack. Our army is retreating steadily!”
Counterattack! At this time, the Madrid guards actually launched a counterattack!
Cyric's march disrupted Madrid's position. After occupying Zaragoza, Madrid knew that the situation was developing in a direction that was unfavorable to them!
They must make some progress, otherwise, they can only watch the east being eaten by the rebels until the whole situation in Spain is out of control!
Now, the most important thing is to break the siege of Madrid by the rebels! In this case, Madrid must use an absolute superior victory to tell the Spanish people that they have not failed and they still have the advantage!
The rear international column, the People's Army, quickly drove into Madrid.
Among them, the most combative were 47 T-26 tanks led by Soviet brigade commander Pavlov!
Pavlov, in the later Soviet army, is a famous Red Army tank expert! And his fortune started from now!
The whole Madrid is filled with smoke. Although the rebels have not formally invaded Madrid, the situation is already precarious!
The rebels have surrounded both the west and northeast of Madrid. Only the southeast has a gap, as if it was a hole deliberately set aside by the rebels. Pavlov took his armored soldiers and entered from this hole. Spanish.
Opening the hatch of the tank, Pavlov showed half of his body. He used his binoculars to look at the rebel positions in the distance.
This is their only chance. If this counterattack fails, then he has no chance to continue counterattack. Moreover, as a loser, as a usual tradition, he may be sent back to the country for military trial.
”Comrades, in order to defend Madrid, we have to repel the rebels. Now, we are attacking!” Pavlov shouted loudly.
