Chapter 1532： Another direction (1/2)

Although the entire Northern Army Group is not as large as the Middle Route Army and the South Route Army, it is definitely a huge army. In the past few days, the 18th Army Group, which belongs to the Northern Army Group, has advanced secretly. .

Compared with other armored divisions, the 18th Army is almost all infantry. Of course, in this era, Germany has fully promoted the construction of mechanized infantry divisions. Germany's strong industrial production capacity allows it to easily serve its own army. Equipped with a sufficient number of infantry fighting vehicles.

The main force of the 18th Army is infantry fighting vehicles, with a small number of armored battalions.

Now, with the armored battalion as the forerunner, the infantry fighting vehicles behind, the huge group army crossed the Volga from the east, defeated the negligible defenders on the bridge, and then drove straight in.

The Soviet army was so scarce that they did not have enough reserve forces. The 18th Army was like a hot red soldering iron inserted into the cheese, and it was inserted all at once.

”Go forward, speed up.” In an armored command vehicle, the commander of the 18th Army Georg von Küschler, looked at the city in front of him with a binoculars, and shouted: ”Kill all resistance. , As long as someone dares to resist, it will be wiped out immediately!”

This is already an experience, and the benevolence of a woman will only put oneself in the most dangerous situation.

The Soviets are already a soldier. Even a child of a few years old may have a grenade in his hand. Fighting on the Soviet battlefield is different from other European countries. The stupid saying that war has nothing to do with civilians is not true here.

One after another wheeled infantry fighting vehicles rushed into the city of Kalinin. After entering the city, they encountered decent resistance. On the street, inside a sandbag bunker, a Maxim heavy machine gun began to shoot at them. Up.

The bullet hit the infantry fighting vehicle, banging, and then, the 40mm tank gun on the infantry fighting vehicle fired violently, and the burst of 40mm high-explosive rounds instantly lifted the entire machine gun position.

Go ahead, keep going!

The wheels of the infantry fighting vehicle rolled forward, and in the street in front, several Soviets in worker clothes raised Molotov cocktails.

”Da da da.” The 6.8 mm bullet blasted over frantically and killed the Soviets. In the face of these resistance forces, the German team was very firm, eliminated, crushed!

The resistance was too small, and the charge of the entire 18th Army was too swift. They moved quickly towards the center of the city and towards the headquarters of the entire Kalinin Front of the Soviet Union.

North of the city, on the river bank.

The bridge was blown off and blocked the 522th Artillery Battalion in the north of the river. They came out of the grove, looking at the rushing river, looking at the destroyed bridge. At this time, their faces were ugly, you look Look at me, I look at you, the same message in my eyes.

It's hard to get past, the German armored unit is behind again. What should I do at this time?

Rush up and fight the Germans!

Stand up the cannon and prepare to bomb the German tanks!

The gunners of the 522th Artillery Battalion had a decisive fighting spirit.

At this time, the 100th Infantry Battalion behind them also withdrew. Looking at the broken bridge over here, Hayashi suddenly laughed: ”Haha, hahaha. The Germans actually exploded the bridge. Give us the last chance! Let's set up our position here, waiting for the Germans!”

What are you afraid of? At the beginning, I signed up for the army with the determination to die. However, I did not expect that he would be wiped out by the Germans in less than half a month on the battlefield so quickly.
