Chapter 2007 Emergency

[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask you again in the next chapter. It would be best if you share it on Facebook for me]

Although I felt mixed emotions, at least someone came to save me. Manteuffel finally felt that his tense nerves and hanging heart were finally put down temporarily.

The Totenkopf Division is not an ordinary unit. It is one of the elite SS units. Its combat effectiveness and equipment are all good.

I heard that these guys were beaten up by the Russians on the Eastern Front a while ago. They were beaten up when they were resting in a relatively safe place and waiting for replenishment of equipment. Not to mention that they didn't win the battle, they even lost the equipment that they had just received.

That was a whole battalion of brand new Panther IIs that fell into the hands of the Russians without firing a single bullet. Not to mention their own losses, they also assisted the enemy. The losses were not small.

That is to say, Manteuffel, who had just heard that the Grossdeutschland Division was beaten, was in a bad mood and had no intention of doing so. Under normal circumstances, the stupid operation of the SS Division would have made Manteuffel laugh.

What is interesting is who beat the SS Division so badly, and fled without even taking away the equipment. Which group of Soviet troops did it? It is not known whether the German army really did not have this information or deliberately did not let too many people know. In short, Manteuffel did not find out the result, let alone hear the people around him and his friends and comrades who were also in high positions talk about it.

Of course, there is no need to delve too deeply into such unimportant things, and there is really no need to inquire so much about it.

Manteuffel did not take it to heart, and now he can't even remember it.

However, there is another thing that Manteuffel is still unclear about, that is, he does not know what the unit number of the Soviet army that beat him up so hard that he almost doubted his life is.

He was beaten to death, so he didn't have time to ask about the unit number.

The intelligence support telegram sent by the superiors was also confused about this group of powerful Soviet troops that suddenly appeared. It is said that the First Belorussian Front, the enemy in front of them, did not have such a group of troops. It is likely that they were transferred from other fronts or the Soviet strategic reserve in the rear. In short, it cannot be confirmed and it is not clear for the time being. After all, everything came too suddenly.

After all, human brainpower is limited. No matter how powerful a person is, it is impossible to consider everything in such a short time. At least Manteuffel does not have such a powerful ability, and of course there is not so much time to consider all aspects and be comprehensive.

"Call back the Skeleton Division! We have suffered heavy losses but can still hold on! In my name, just say that I ask them to come to the rescue as soon as possible. The life and death of the Great German Division depends on this. Please do your best!"

A simple reply call does not need to be so troublesome, but Manteuffel is indeed a little scared.

He was afraid that the guys in the Death's Head Division would play the trick of "pretending to obey but secretly disobeying", so he sent a telegram to shout loudly, but in fact his subordinates did not work hard at all, and did not work hard at all.

When the Great German Division was completely wiped out, the Death's Head Division, which was still dawdling on the way, could naturally say: "Oh, it's not that brothers don't want to save you, but you died so quickly, I really can't blame brothers", and then turn around and go home, going back to where they came from.

Can you say that the Death's Head Division didn't send troops to rescue?

They rescued, the entire division was mobilized and sent a telegram to inform them. What do you want my Death's Head Division to do now? Can't you give the Tiger King wings and fly over?

No matter how angry the Wehrmacht is, it will be helpless against the Death's Head Division at that time. This is one of the highest levels of disgusting people.

Knowing that he had offended someone, Manteuffel was afraid of such a situation, so he said a few more words in the telegram, trying to lower his posture as much as possible, and begging for help.

He just wrote "It's all my fault, you are a big man and don't remember the villain's fault, just treat the words I said before as fart" in the telegram. The face and reserve of a big man are the only reasons why Manteuffel didn't do so.

As for what will happen after the arrival of the SS Division, Manteuffel also thought about it.

Just look at the current nature of the Great German Division, and look at the fierceness of the Russians on the opposite side.

Winning a battle is really unthinkable! Repelling the enemy must be put aside for now and talk about it later.

The most urgent thing must be to run away first!

As long as the SS Division can catch the Russians off guard and temporarily distract their attention, Manteuffel asked himself that he would have the opportunity to command at least part of the Great German Division troops and withdraw first.

Even though the losses were heavy, at least they avoided being annihilated again. If they added some troops and equipment, they would still be the Great German Division, and would not be so disgraced that they would be called the "Great German Division III", provided that there really was a third generation.

No matter how you think about it, this is the only hope at the moment. Success or failure, life or death, is really like what Manteuffel said in the telegram, it all depends on the Skeleton Division.

The telegram with the complete content recorded according to Manteuffel's request was quickly sent out, flying to the distance in the form of radio waves, flying to the Skeleton Division that was rushing south to rescue people.

Seeing hope, Manteuffel was no longer stubborn. He did not need anyone to carry him out. He took the initiative to follow the advice of the chief of staff and retreated to the safer second line of defense with the command team to continue commanding.

At the same time, he used all the remaining technical equipment in his hands to strengthen the defense. He deployed them in place before the Soviet army arrived. He had to fight to the death on the second and last line of defense and hold on until the arrival of the Skeleton Division. He made the final preparations.

The loss of the first line of defense was only a matter of time. Without the help of large-scale reinforcements to block and intercept, the Great German Division would never run away alone, especially in front of such an outrageously mechanized enemy. Don't even think about it.

"I hope we can hold out until they arrive. It is beyond imagination to deal with such a group of extremely fierce enemies."

Malachenko, who was busy commanding the troops to charge and kill on the first line of defense of the Germans who had already entered, and to eliminate the remaining enemies, was so excited that he didn't know what the commander of the damn Great German Division on the opposite side was mumbling in his heart, and of course he was not interested in knowing.

Just when Malachenko was about to order the car to move the tank forward a little, drive to the front of the position that had been captured, and use the 130 gun to aim at the Germans who dared to resist fiercely, a familiar voice from the radio instantly drew his attention.

"Comrade, there is an emergency! You'd better find a relatively safe place to listen to me finish my words, let Kurbalov command, and you leave the battle first!"
