Chapter 1248： Difficult brothers part ways (1/2)
”We found a few mice in the sewers of the city.” With exhaustion, Kartsev continued to explain: ”When the explosion happened, the city was devastated and all the buildings in the city collapsed. And this section of the sewer just happened to be blocked from both sides.”
”In other words, as long as we hide in the ground and we have enough air, we can support it?” Budjoni immediately inferred. This inference made Kartsev also quite admired. It really deserves to be a senior. Commander, thinking is active.
”However, we want to build enough underground fortifications in a short period of time is difficult.” Admiral Kilbonos said.
There are hundreds of thousands of defenders in the city, as well as millions of people. If all the underground fortifications are built, it will not be completed in a short time.
”Yes, so if the Germans intend to use this kind of weapon to threaten us, we need to evacuate all the citizens and keep only our army. If we start to do it now, how many such underground bunkers can we build? How many troops are left, but we must pay attention to it. It must be completely sealed. That terrible weapon will consume all the oxygen in the air. We also need enough oxygen cylinders to hold us until the surrounding air is refilled. .”
There is a spear and a shield. Weapons are not omnipotent. Now, they have found the weakness of this terrible weapon. In Moscow, such fortifications have begun to be built. If the Germans want to destroy Moscow with this weapon, their own Can stick to it.
”However, there are ruins all over the ground. What is the use even if we can survive the attack? The city has been destroyed and has lost the value of defense. We can't continue street fighting in the ruins.” Admiral North said.
What's the use of leaving a ruin?
”Useful, at least, we are still holding on.” Budjoni said: ”As long as there is one person, the position is ours.” As a veteran from the civil war, Budjoni is still firm.
After recovering from the initial sudden attack, the Soviet army began to stabilize, as did the Southwest Army.
For example, the commander of the 6th Army, Lieutenant General Ivan Nikolayevich Muzichenko, is a strong-willed and decisive commander.
He is the son of a sailor. He has experienced poverty and unfree labor since his childhood. In 1917, he served in the Tsarist Army on the Northwest Front. Joined the Red Army in 1918.
During the Russian Civil War, he was injured 5 degrees: 1 time to the head, 3 times to the right hand and 1 time to the back.
In 1927, he graduated from the Red Army Commander Cavalry Course Advanced Course. Embarked on the road from squadron leader to division commander.
Just this year, Muzichenko bypassed the military command and was directly appointed as the commander of the group army when he was less than 40 years old. Began to command the Soviet 6th Army.
His group army is stationed in the Lviv region of Ukraine. The group army has 2 infantry corps, 1 cavalry corps, 2 mechanized corps and other units.
His luck was quite bad. As soon as the battle started, his 6th Army participated in the Border War. After that, he retreated and retreated to Uman with his difficult brother, the 12th Army.
They are in Uman, while holding on, they are actually trimming, after all, the German offensive route is Kiev, and they are supposed to be safe in Uman.
