712 Northern Front
If a shell fell on the position, it seemed that it was just a huge black smoke column raised by the shell. However, when a dozen or twenty rounds or even hundreds of shells landed on a position, it was almost like digging the ground. There were refurbished ground everywhere, and there were deep pits formed by shell explosions everywhere.
When people in the peaceful age were still struggling with how to efficiently use excavators to dig deep pits, the runners in the war years had been working on this for hundreds of years-they tried their best to use the new technology developed by engineers. Ammunition, digging deeper, bigger and more hopeless pits in the ground.
The German army in the north of Kyiv is under constant fire from the most powerful force of the Soviet Union. Just like the Soviet Red Army, which is bearing the powerful firepower of the German army advancing eastward, the German soldiers here are also suffering from the Soviet Red Army. The fierce attack of firepower, like a tsunami, is overwhelming and seems to have no end.
However, compared with the soldiers of the Soviet Red Army, the German army has one of the biggest advantages in the defense process, that is, they have been preparing their own defensive positions for more than half a year. Prepare everything for the onslaught of the Soviet Red Army.
Fortunately, German generals have proved more than once that in addition to offense, they also have their own uniqueness when arranging defense. A group of veteran generals who showed great prowess in the defensive stage of the Polish War, this time they radiated their youth again, and they turned this place into a fortress, a strong fortress.
Therefore, the defensive position of the German defenders is perfect, and their mental preparation is relatively sufficient. Compared with the Soviet Red Army, which was constantly preparing to attack a few days ago, they have a solid defensive position in their hands, and they are more powerful. Weapons and equipment, as well as various support forces that may come at any time.
If nothing else, as long as the weather improves and the sky clears up, thousands of Luftwaffe bombers will appear in the sky and destroy all Soviet offensive forces on the ground. But until the weather clears, the German Army is on its own.
The shell exploded on the edge of the trench, and the huge vibration caused the wood lined on the edge of the trench to shake. The soil fell from the gap and hit the German helmet with a thumping sound, because the helmet was covered with white cloth. , and the surrounding sounds are really noisy, so this kind of sound is not obvious, only the person wearing the helmet can feel it.
Compared with the powerful and large number of Soviet artillery, the artillery positions on the German positions are obviously less in number. The number of German 150mm heavy artillery that can be bombarded with long-range Soviet artillery is even rarer, so compared to the hysteria of the Soviet Red Army artillery, the German artillery's return fire and groaning are no different.
On average, the German army fires one large-caliber shell to fight back, and the Soviets fire ten shells to retaliate. The support artillery fire of the two sides is not at the same level. The number of 203mm cannons in the hands of the Soviets has exceeded that of the Germans in this direction. 150 mm caliber cannon,
Not to mention the number of Soviet 122mm cannons, the German army can only use the word envy to express their feelings.
In the German command headquarters on the front line, a German regiment commander is holding the phone and complaining loudly to his superiors. More than 100 large-caliber shells have fallen on his position, and his soldiers have changed from minor losses to Now the loss is soaring: "Sir! I can't hear what you are saying. The Soviet shelling still hasn't stopped. The sound is too loud. I can't hear what you said."
While he was still yelling endlessly into the phone that he couldn't hear clearly, the Soviet attack had already begun. A Stalin tank broke a small tree, and behind this tank, another The Stalin tanks rushed out, and looking back, one after another Soviet tanks drove out of the woods, and one after another tanks formed an attack formation as vast as the ocean.
Around these tanks, hordes of Soviet Red Army soldiers with their guns rushed towards the German positions not far away, which were still shrouded in a thick black smoke. They shouted, and the word Ulla echoed in the sky.
These Soviet Red Army soldiers wore army green overcoats and carried a new type of submachine gun with a drum. This submachine gun is a newly developed weapon that began to be equipped with Soviet troops on a large scale a few months ago.
During the Soviet-Finnish War, the Soviet Union suffered from the Finnish submachine gun. As a result, due to the arrival of the Great Cleansing, the development of this weapon was put on hold again. After the Soviet-German War broke out in Poland, the Soviet Union really realized the importance of automatic weapons for modern warfare. Terrible effect.
The individual weapon system composed of German submachine guns, semi-automatic rifles, and automatic rifles successfully suppressed most of the Mosin Nagant rifles of the Soviet Red Army, which made the weapons of the Soviet Red Army criticized by most front-line generals, resulting in the birth The birth of this new submachine gun.
This automatic weapon uses a drum with 71 rounds of ammunition for ammunition, which gives it a very terrible firepower duration. In addition, the Soviet Red Army lacks automatic weapons, so it was loved by the Soviet Red Army as soon as it was born, and it was immediately equipped on a large scale front line troops.
In addition, the production of this weapon is extremely simple, and the barrel of the Mosin Nagant rifle can be used as two barrels of this submachine gun when it is sawed in two. 100,000 of these submachine guns were produced, allowing the main force of the Soviet Union to use this terrible individual weapon before the war.
"Thug! Chug!" At a close enough distance, the German mg42 machine gun finally let out its own roar, and the tracer bullets were drawn into a fan shape, sweeping towards the opposite Soviet Red Army. As the machine guns continued to fire, the shell casings fell to the ground in the trench and fell to the feet of the German machine gunners.
The bullet hit the armor of the Soviet tank, making a jingling sound, and then it was blocked by thick steel, and finally the bullet flew to other places. More bullets still hit the Soviet soldiers, knocking the young men to the ground who were shouting long live Comrade Stalin.
Soon, a Soviet T-34 tank overtook the other tanks, and then the machine gun on the front armor plate began to shoot out dazzling tongues of flame, shooting out a cloud of smoke in front of the German machine gun positions. The torrent of bullets roared through the air, hitting the sandbags and leaving a row of bullet holes the size of fists.
The German machine gunner was shot through the head by a bullet and fell down in the trench like a sandbag. The deputy shooter was also hit on the shoulder by the machine gun bullet, and with a scream, he dropped the ammunition belt in his hand. The mg42 machine gun that was still harvesting the lives of the Soviet Red Army just now was cut into parts by bullets and scattered on the surrounding snow.
A well-concealed German 75mm anti-tank gun suddenly fired, and a shell hit the firing Soviet t-34 tank, piercing its not-so-thick front armor plate. This flamboyant t-34 tank The 34 tank stopped in flames, and then a tragic explosion occurred.
The explosion did not stop the surrounding Soviet Red Army from advancing. A Soviet Red Army stepped on a German mine, followed by a storm of steel balls that swept over a dozen Soviet Red Army soldiers. These poor people Falling in a pool of blood, I can no longer move forward while shouting slogans.
As the distance between the two sides got closer, other guns on the German positions gradually opened fire, and the bullets flew across the middle of the two sides, taking away the lives of those who blocked the way. It is as thick as a carpet in the snow.
"Oh my God! There are too many of them!" A German soldier complained while huddling in the trench while loading the Mauser 98k rifle in his hand after firing a single shot. As soon as his words fell, a comrade standing on his left shooting was shot in the head by the Soviets, and his body fell backwards in the trench, covered in a fog of blood.
"Oh! God! We need reinforcements! Where are our tanks?" The poor German soldier looked at the dead body beside him, his calves were a little limp in fright, and he was picked up from the ground by the veteran standing on the other side of him. , and let him keep shooting.
He carefully exposed his head, and a Soviet tank not far away was firing desperately. He knew that his weapon could not cause any damage to the tank, so he moved his gun and pointed it at a man who was moving forward. The running Soviet infantry, the front sight was on this man, and he pulled the trigger of his gun.
"Boom!" The moment he opened fire, a cloud of blood sprayed out from the Soviet soldier he was aiming at. Don't move.
However, when the German recruit retracted his head, he used his peripheral vision to find that the Soviet tank that kept firing was getting closer to him. The Soviets above used machine guns to clear a German defensive position, and the machine gunners and anti-tank rocket launchers inside were all killed.
"That tank! That Soviet tank is coming! It's coming!" The recruit held on to his helmet and wanted to leave his position, but was grabbed by the veteran around him again and brought him back.
The veteran threw him back to his original position, and while continuing to fire forward, he shouted loudly: "Keep firing! Idiot! Behind our position is the company headquarters! Where are you going? Let Is the company commander covering your retreat? We must receive..."
"Bah!" Before the veteran could finish speaking, the steel helmet above his head was pierced by a bullet, and he had to save the rest of the words for another world to continue.
