Chapter 1753 Doubt About Life

"What are the aviation guys bombing? Why is there so much noise? Have they taken away the Germans' ammunition depot?"

"Maybe, or maybe it's an oil depot, who knows? Anyway, the more miserable the Germans were bombed, the better.

��

The huge movement of the German positions being uprooted was like an earthquake. The shock wave that spread rapidly from the explosion could even be felt in the temporary position under Lavrinenko's command far away.

Whether it was the continuous loud explosions or the plumes of smoke rising from the ground in an instant, all of them are extremely visually impactful and shocking in retrospect.

"We should have found the artillery position, otherwise there wouldn't have been such a big fuss."

Just like before, the commander of the 3rd Tank Regiment, who quietly spoke out his analysis, still stayed beside Kurbalov, admiring the distant scenery with telescopes in hand together with the deputy division commander.

"Yes, it should be. But I don't know how they found it. Don't the Germans hide their artillery positions? They were discovered too quickly."

The premise for Lavrinenko to say this was that he did not know the reason why the German artillery position was exposed. He wanted to launch an artillery bombardment on him and started preparations in advance. Unexpectedly, he ran into an air raid that happened to arrive. It was purely Caused by accident.

If he had known this was the case, Lavrinenko would have scolded his mother with such a bad temper.

Good guy, if there hadn't been this wave of air strikes, wouldn't the shells of these bastards have fallen on our heads again?

Damn, deserve it! Explode violently to death.

The words may not be like that, but the meaning is the same. It's just another assumption and it didn't happen at all.

"What should we do next?"

"Um"

As soon as the third regiment commander asked a question, Lavrinenko was thinking about how to answer. At this moment, the communications soldier from the regiment interrupted the conversation and suddenly came forward.

"Comrade Deputy Division Commander, the telegram from the division headquarters was taken by Comrade Political Commissar."

"Telegram? Or was it taken by Comrade Political Commissar?"

After hearing this, Lavrinenko and the third regiment commander looked at each other. Neither of them could find the answer they wanted from each other's eyes. It was obviously a situation where "two faces were confused and they didn't know what to say".

Not long after Malashenko hung up the radio, the political commissar took the telegram over.

Is this an unexpected situation or emergency?

"Bring it to me.

After taking the telegram from the correspondent and spreading it out in front of him, Lavrinenko began to read it carefully word for word. Lavrinenko soon discovered that the content recorded in it was completely different from what he thought in his mind.

"What does it say? Is the situation serious?"

The third regiment commander, who was not sure whether he had the authority to read the telegram, was more sensible and did not choose to get together to watch. Instead, he waited quietly and added a verbal question to Lavrinenko.

Lavrinenko, whose face gradually relaxed, seemed to be in a good mood, as if he had received some good news, and he quickly spoke quietly to the third regiment commander and gave an answer.

"Comrade Political Commissar informed both of us that the main force of the division led by Comrade Division Commander has advanced from the center and is approaching us. The situation on Kulbalov's side is also going well. They will move all the way south from the north and approach us. If the situation If things go well, they may even join us before the commander."

"Are they all here? Even Kurbalov is here? What kind of strategy is this? Does Comrade Commander intend to focus on annihilation?"

The expression of the third regiment commander at this moment can be described as a question mark, and Lavrinenko, who was holding a telegraph newspaper, was in a similar situation, only slightly better.

"The specific details are not clear yet. The telegram just asked us to be prepared and entangle the Germans who are facing the enemy in person so that they don't let them escape. No specific details were mentioned. It is probably due to the confidentiality issue of the telegram. It is said that The enemy's monitoring and detection has been more frequent recently, and it is much more intensive than before. Anyway, we will all know it when the division commander arrives, which won't take long. "

The problem that Lavrinenko himself can't figure out is naturally unexplainable, but the first thing that needs to be considered at the moment is not this, but how to seize the next crucial fighter opportunity.

"As soon as the air raid ends, the Germans will definitely take action. I judge that they will at least retreat and reorganize their defenses. After fighting us just now, these Germans must have figured out our ins and outs. If they still Not retreating is equivalent to staying there and waiting to die.”

"We can't let these bastards run away, attack! Go after them and bite them. If you can't kill them, you will still have to entangle them. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you, there is another important news mentioned in the telegram, That’s why we must not let these Germans run away.”

"what is the reason?"

The third regiment commander couldn't figure out the cause and effect, and Lavrinenko answered directly without any hesitation.

"The Grossdeutschland Panzer Division, these bastards moved fast enough to actually run into this damn place and bump into us. But that's a good thing. If we hadn't encountered them, we might have been run away by these bastards. , it’s easy for them to escape from such a far back position.”

After figuring out the identity of the Germans on the opposite side and detailing the next action plan, what Lavrinenko had to do next was not too difficult. The Germans, whose artillery had been knocked out and who were severely beaten by the air strike, were already toothless tigers. Even if these bastards were the Great German Armored Division, they could still be beaten to the ground until their teeth were found.

While Lavrinenko was full of confidence and ready to slaughter the enemy, the situation of the Great German Armored Division on the opposite side, which was still suffering from the air strike, was completely different.

"We almost lost all our self-propelled artillery, sir, the Russian air strike came too suddenly! The artillery position was just restocking ammunition, and we had no chance to escape in time. The target was too obvious, and a large group of vehicles were all crowded together."

The adjutant who went to check the situation brought back the worst news, which was also the news that Colonel Klose was most reluctant to hear.

After losing this precious artillery, Colonel Klose no longer had any cards to play.

His troops were already incomplete and had lost some manpower. After being bombarded by the Russians for no apparent reason, they were now hit by an air raid. The tragedy that happened one after another in less than two hours had made Colonel Klose somewhat lost and even began to doubt himself.

Could it be that every move of his side was really within the Russians' expectations? Was all of this just a conspiracy set up by the Russians? Were they waiting for him to come to them?
