Chapter 2219: The Aftermath of the Bombardment

Chapter 2224: The residual power of the bombardment

"All units charge forward! Take the opportunity to push the Germans down! Infantry prepare for anti-tank combat, charge!"

Generally speaking, Malashenko prefers to use the heavy armor that cannot be penetrated and the advantage of large-caliber heavy artillery to crush the Germans. Google search reading: The Germans can only scratch and hear the sound when they attack us, while we can rely on the overpressure explosion of large-caliber grenades to ignore physical defense and directly destroy the Germans to win the battle with the unequal advantage.

This is also the most effective way to destroy the enemy in heavy armor vs. heavy armor tank and anti-tank combat.

However, this time, Malashenko does not intend to play like this, but is ready to change another way to send these Germans to the west: a close-range assault method of riding directly on the face.

As for why he did this, the reason is very simple.

To put it simply, the Germans are dizzy now, the kind of dizziness that is caused by the explosion to the point that they can't tell east from west, south from north, and their brains are confused.

The dazzling effect of the residual power of the bombardment will not last long, but for any battlefield commander, it is a rare opportunity that must be seized.

The battle formation is disrupted and the soldiers need time to breathe. Even those war machines and equipment made of steel have escaped the bombardment by chance and are not affected and can be put into battle at any time, but the people who operate the weapons and equipment are not like this.

The fragile human beings with flesh and blood need a little breathing opportunity anyway, and of course they also need more time to make up for the defective formation and missing troops after the large-scale bombardment, and this is precisely the most fatal weakness of the German army at present, without a doubt.

Before the Germans reacted, Malashenko wanted to seize all the opportunities that could be used to expand the results of the war as much as possible.

Everyone knows that the world's martial arts can only be broken by speed. Generally speaking, what kind of results can be achieved in offensive operations is a causal relationship directly linked to the speed of attack.

On the premise of ensuring victory, the faster the attack speed, the greater the results. The relationship between the two is often proportional, just like the blitzkrieg that the Germans once dominated on the European continent. If you can't be fast enough in an offensive battle, then I'm sorry, you can only say that you don't even have a share of soup, let alone meat.

But another objective reality that goes with it must also be paid attention to. The ratio of risk to reward is often proportional and cannot be ignored.

Taking a more bold and radical way of fighting and pursuing speed to maximize the results will face greater risks. Of course, Malashenko knows this clearly.

But for the current situation, the foreseeable risks are undoubtedly acceptable.

The Germans have been blown into this state by a barrage of artillery fire. Not only did the infantry suffer heavy casualties, but even the core main tanks with strong armor and powerful guns also suffered many battle losses and their formations were in chaos. At least from an intuitive visual analysis, the Germans' combat effectiveness is indeed greatly damaged.

The Germans' greatly damaged strength is equivalent to reducing the risks that Malashenko may encounter in disguise, which is always no problem.

And if you don't seize this precious opportunity in front of you and give the Germans a chance to breathe.

Then Malashenko is sure that the Germans will recover in a short time, so that they can come back and continue to attack and break through.

In the face of life and death, there is no doubt about what choice these Germans will make next. Malashenko does not think that after these Germans have come to this point and worked so hard, they will choose to give up just because they are bombarded. This is not in line with common sense.

If we can take this opportunity to repel the first wave of the Germans' attack in a "take advantage of your illness, kill you" way, then at least we can turn the time between the Germans' gathering of the next wave of attacks into precious "buy time" for our side, and drag these Germans here and not make an inch forward.

Every minute of delay in the Germans' escape time is extremely beneficial to Malashenko. It is enough for those slower friendly troops to come and close the encirclement and complete the rotation, so that the leader division can be free to invest in the next stage of the operation. This is the "final victory" for Malashenko.

Comparing the two, analyzing the pros and cons, the so-called risks are not worth mentioning in front of the huge rewards of victory. The current situation of the Germans, who have been weakened to a certain extent, makes Malashenko feel that this is worth a try. After all, where can you find a good thing that does not want to take any risks and only wants to reap the rewards for free?

Perhaps there is such a good thing in the world, but at least not now, not on the battlefield in front of Malashenko.

Seize all the opportunities that can be grasped, and beat the Germans in front of them, who have been bombed to the point of being confused and their strength has been greatly damaged, to death, until they feel that it is difficult to chew, and it will not be worth the loss to continue to advance in depth. This is the final plan that Malashenko immediately formulated based on the current situation.

Of course, as the top elite field group of the Soviet Army, the only experimental synthetic corps, and the leader division known as the "Guards of the Guards", when executing the orders of the division commander, as usual, they still do not dress up a little discount, as fast as lightning and as powerful as thunder.

Heavy tanks charged in the front, with infantry fighting vehicles following closely.

The speed of the fully mechanized rapid assault was, as always, beyond the German army's understanding and imagination. The roaring and roaring Stalin heavy tanks were terrifying enough. After gathering dozens or hundreds of them on the vast snowfield, they were enough to stir up waves of white snow mist that seemed like an ice and snow storm. It was really scary to look at it with the naked eye.

What's more terrible is that these Stalin tanks don't just know how to rush, but do nothing on the way to the charge.

On the contrary, no matter how accurate the shooting is and how much it is affected by the extreme speed, these Stalin heavy tanks are rushing forward at a high speed, and the machine guns on their heads and the main guns are constantly firing. Except for a short change of bullets, they are firing continuously.

The crimson tracer chains are extremely conspicuous on the white snowfield. All German soldiers know what kind of miserable death is behind the dazzling bright red tracer.

It doesn't matter if the accuracy is not high, what matters is the suppression effect.

When the heavy machine gun bullets whistling like a storm, with the sound of breaking wind, whistling continuously over your head, the whistling sound of the supersonic bullets breaking wind and rubbing against each other is the grim smile of the god of death, mocking whether you have the courage to stick your head out and do something to the best of your ability in the face of this fierce firepower.
