My Third Empire

Seven Hundred and Eighty Eight Strong Attack

"Come on! For Ukraine!" Hundreds of young Ukrainian soldiers, holding Mauser 98K rifles in their hands, charged on the crowded streets. They rushed to their enemies without hesitation, letting the bullets flow Fly past their ears.

Behind these Ukrainian soldiers, a German MG42 light machine gun is constantly roaring, firing bullets at the opposite ground army position. On the opposite position, the Soviet soldiers were frequently pulling the bolts of the Mosin Nagant rifles in their hands, and then fired at the Ukrainian soldiers who rushed up.

Bullets flew everywhere, and a Ukrainian soldier was shot in the throat. The bullet severed his artery and sprayed blood everywhere, staining the gray-green German uniform he was wearing. He clutched his neck and struggled to fall, fell on the cold snow and closed his eyes.

More Ukrainian soldiers passed over his body, and then continued to charge towards the position of the Soviet Red Army. Under the cover of machine guns, they poured into the trenches and mixed with the Soviet troops who were dodging everywhere. Bullets flew everywhere, screams echoed everywhere, the entire battlefield was bloody, and the corpses piled up higher and higher in the fierce battle between the two sides.

A German officer watching the battle put down the binoculars in his hand, looked at the Ukrainian officer beside him, and showed a warm smile: "Your troops are really brave. These soldiers are well-trained and have a strong will to fight. I am very grateful satisfy."

"Thank you for your praise. My troops will occupy this block this afternoon, and then continue to attack the city center. It is our bounden duty to liberate this city ruled by Stalin and the entire Ukraine!" the Ukrainian officer solemnly said. Said: "You have come to liberate us... Now, we should fight side by side!"

At the same time that these words were spoken, the Ukrainian soldiers and Soviet soldiers fighting together in the trenches where the two sides were fighting were swept away by a light machine gun from the Soviet Union. Because it was too chaotic, this shooting was basically an indiscriminate attack. In an instant, more than a dozen soldiers from both sides screamed and fell into a pool of blood.

A grenade thrown from nowhere exploded in the trench, blowing away the two soldiers who were fighting. The arm of one of the soldiers flew far away, and fell on a pile of corpses in a bloody mess.

The Ukrainian soldiers who rushed into the trenches behind all had bayonets on their rifles. They jumped into the trenches, giving the attacking friendly forces an overwhelming advantage in numbers. These soldiers quickly leveled the entire trench, braved the hail of bullets, and continued to attack the next trench.

It can be said that even compared to the fanatical SS, these Ukrainian soldiers can be regarded as models of bravery in combat. It can be seen that during the Soviet rule, these Ukrainians,

How much oppression they have suffered, they hate the Soviet Union, and therefore regard the German army who drove out the Soviets as their savior.

These Ukrainian soldiers have all hunted and suppressed Polish guerrillas in Poland, and have undergone strict anti-Soviet ideological education and training. Most of their families have unjust debts left during the Soviet rule, and they also dealt with a large number of non-cooperative Russian prisoners in concentration camps in Poland and Ukraine. So these people are now fighting for Ukraine, for the Third Reich and their own lives, and naturally become extremely heroic and fearless.

On the position of the outer encirclement circle of Kharkov, the German servants and the Ukrainian 1st Army are engaged in a desperate struggle with the Soviet soldiers. The former friendly forces fought repeatedly in a position, and finally blood flowed into a river. As a result of the battle, the flag of the Third Reich fluttered in the wind, getting closer and closer to the center of Kharkov's urban area.

A Ukrainian soldier was lying on the ruins of a collapsed building, holding a gun and guarding the direction of the street intersection. In a huge bomb crater not far below him, two machine gunners were leaning against the corner of the bomb crater, covered by the cold The wind was shivering.

The supplies of these servants are generally less than those of the German regular army, and the supplies are also less. More than 70 percent of the German regular army is equipped with cotton clothing and snow camouflage for winter combat. Only 8% of the Ukrainian 1st Army has this kind of treatment.

Therefore, most Ukrainian soldiers are still wearing the gray-green military uniforms of the Wehrmacht, holding Mauser 98K rifles that the main force of the German army is unwilling to equip, and even more than half of them do not have gas mask barrels. One of the important symbols of the regular army.

A cannonball landed in the center of a distant building, and the huge explosion caused the already crumbling building to collapse. The brick structure began to fall, and the force formed spread in all directions, creating a cloud that covered the sky and the sun. dust.

As a huge trap, Kharkov did not wait for Guderian, but Vlasov. The layers of defense that originally wanted to drag down the German armored forces have now become a battlefield where infantry from both sides fight back and forth. Both sides are losing more soldiers every minute. The difference is that among the soldiers lost, there are few Germans.

With the continuous development of the entire Eastern Front battlefield, the new German army finally joined the battlefield. 100,000 Italian elite troops and 150,000 Romanian main forces filled the gaps in part of the German defense line, and these servants converged on a full 200,000 Ukrainians The troops, forming an Axis group, succeeded Model's D Army, surrounded Kharkov, and launched a fierce attack.

For the Soviet Union, it is undoubtedly another heavy blow, because after the Soviet Union lost a large number of troops in succession, the number of enemies it needs to face is increasing. At least 300,000 German troops have been liberated from the complex garrison work in the rear, and those places are now filled by Italian and Romanian troops. And with these troops plus the troops of several countries already participating in the battle on the front line, the strength of the Axis coalition forces has increased by as much as 750,000 at once. These increased troops are putting pressure on the Soviet defenders from all directions.

On the building in the distance, a Soviet soldier poked his head out. He glanced furtively at the surrounding situation, and then quickly shrank back. The Ukrainian soldiers here remained calm and pointed their guns at the window where the enemy exposed. After a while, probably because he found that there was no danger, the Soviet soldier poked his head out again, but this time he was not so lucky, and a bullet hit his head accurately.

A Soviet heavy machine gun hidden in a corner suddenly opened fire, and the bullets rained down on the ruins, hitting the Ukrainian soldiers, splashing a cloud of white smoke. The shot immediately sparked a fierce battle, and soon Soviet soldiers were firing their bullets from all directions.

The Ukrainian soldiers here did not sit still, and the MG42 machine gun next to them immediately fired back, and the tracer bullets flew towards the enemy's position, where they also shot out a cloud of white smoke. Farther away, several Ukrainian soldiers were holding their Mauser 98K rifles, shooting one after another desperately.

After all, they were not the elite grenadiers of the German army. The Ukrainian army actually had less firepower than the Soviet Red Army on the opposite side. The two sides were at a stalemate for a while, and casualties soon appeared.

At this time, a Soviet T-26 tank with gray paint and a black iron cross painted on the turret drove over from the end of the street. Behind it, there were more T-26 tanks painted in this way. These are the armored units of the Ukrainian 1st Army, and they are also the elite of this army.

One of the T-26s has also undergone some modifications. The position of the turret is not a closed turret, but an open shield with two 20mm cannons on it-this anti-aircraft weapon was originally modified. It was used to equip the German army, but it was later eliminated due to insufficient parts and inconvenient maintenance. It happened to be given to the Ukrainian servants who used T-26 tanks.

The emergence of Ukrainian army tanks tilted the situation on the battlefield. Some rifle bullets hit the sandbags hanging in front of the T-26 tanks, but did not penetrate these temporary "armors". The machine guns on the T-26 tanks began to fire violently, suppressing some Soviet firepower points.

The outdated T-26 tanks are no different from the record in front of the German armored forces, but in this case, they can still have a certain deterrent effect. The Soviet Red Army's defense line began to shake, and the battlefield situation tilted in favor of Ukraine. .

Since it was a hole dug for the German armored forces, naturally this hole is not an embroidered pillow. There are many anti-tank guns in Kharkov. These things are easy to hide and powerful in street battles, and they can often get a shorter shooting distance. , is simply a tank killer in urban street fighting.

Now, on the position of the Soviet Red Army, an anti-tank gun fired, and the shell easily penetrated the T-26 tank of the Ukrainian army, destroying the guy who had just slaughtered the Soviet soldiers.

The remaining Ukrainian tanks fired in the direction of the shells, and the small-caliber cannon on the turret fired desperately, because the drivers in these tanks knew that if there was a second shell flying over, it would be hard to say It was the tank he was riding in that was destroyed.

At this time, the dual-mounted 20mm anti-aircraft machine guns for air defense came up, and the two machine guns quickly aimed at the Soviet position that was already covered in white smoke. With a fierce order, this weapon that was originally aimed at the air began to suppress flat fire - this is also learned from the German army, and it is said that the effect is very good in actual combat.

As expected, the anti-tank gun that opened fire was destroyed, and the commander and soldiers nearby were also shot to death. Afterwards, the Soviet defensive position in the entire block collapsed, and another swastika flag was placed on the highest wall in the block. on the roof of the building.
