Chapter 2799 Target Locked
This bloody battle, which was like stuffing a living person into a meat grinder and then stuffing it into sausages, lasted until dusk.
After fighting with swords, fists and feet, and even teeth in some cases, the siege troops of the leader division, who had been fighting for a whole day, stopped fighting on their own initiative.
Of course, this was not a spontaneous stop by the soldiers. The ceasefire order came directly from Malashenko, who was in charge of the front-line command post.
The goal of today's battle was not to eradicate the Nazi remnants in the square building area, so there was no need to race against time to kill these bastards.
"Has the front ceased fire?"
Malashenko, who was leaning against the window with a telescope in his hand, was still looking at the distant scene. The curling black smoke rising from the embers of the war floated over the war zone, and it looked quite tragic against the orange afterglow in the sky.
Of course, this is more than just "appearance". Under the embers of the war with curling black smoke, there are countless bodies of Soviet and German soldiers lying on the streets. Even the most elite soldiers can hardly survive in such a meat grinder. Anyone who can survive will say that they are a bit lucky.
"It's all ceasefire, and the enemy has no intention of pursuing us. Reports from some neighborhoods say that the enemy even watched us retreat, not to mention not pursuing us, and even didn't bother to fire their guns, as if they were afraid of angering us and fighting back.
In the past, Malashenko often denied his subordinates' overly optimistic "seems", "should", and "maybe". As a military leader, he always put determination first and didn't engage in adventurism in the offensive.
However, this time is different. This time even Malashenko himself clearly knows that the Germans can't hold it anymore.
You ask why?
The answer is simple.
Not only the leader division, in Zhukov's After the order was given, the Red Army was now overwhelming almost every front in Berlin with its overwhelming superiority.
Planes were bombing in the sky, cannons were blasting overhead, tanks were charging on the ground, and behind the tanks were a large group of howling Russians, who would come up and kill you with knives, fists, or even sharp teeth.
What is a meat grinder-style battle?
This is it.
The Red Army, which had superior strength, could organize multiple siege teams to fight in rotation. When the energy of the previous attack was almost exhausted, it would immediately retreat, and the next siege team, which was on standby at the rear and holding back its energy, would immediately attack, with the main focus being a continuous attack without any gaps.
Especially for a heavy synthetic field group like the Leader Division, Ma Lashenko had a lot of elite soldiers at his disposal. He was not afraid of not having enough troops, but he was worried that the battlefield width where he could deploy his troops was not wide enough.
In the rotational operations, he even suppressed the Germans so much that they didn't even have time to urinate. Even if they had diarrhea, they had to urinate in their crotches. They kept loading bullets and firing at the Red Army until they died with a warm stream of diarrhea in their crotches.
The German army, which could not stop for a moment, could not retreat, and either surrendered or was crushed into pieces by the leader's division, was not difficult to imagine what state it was in at this moment near dusk.
The human body has its limits, and the military commander's combat concept must be based on the human body functions of ordinary soldiers and whether they can keep up.
No It can be said that the possibility of you Germans messing up the job after this is completely ruled out, after all, everything is possible.
But for Malashenko, he doesn't care much about whether you Germans will "bite the lighter" next.
The meat grinder is here, if you want to stick your head in, you can do it.
In short, Malashenko, who basically has a preliminary combat summary at hand, can say with certainty that today's combat objectives have basically been achieved.
However, this does not mean that everything is over, because there are other things to do at night, and the whole plan prepared by Malashenko has only been completed halfway.
"Rest the troops well, and send the food to the soldiers to eat first. Each siege team will immediately switch to a defensive posture and be responsible for their own defense zone according to the actual control line as the border."
"Then comrade division commander, what if the Nazis take the opportunity to break through and escape at night? "
Putting down the telescope in his hand, Malashenko glanced at the other side again. A tall building visible to the naked eye has already stood in the field of vision, and the distance is not far away.
Malashenko, who has a clear goal, is not mainly concerned with these Nazi remnants. The moment to truly show his strength is not far away.
"Let them run. It will save us trouble if they run away. But the premise is that our front line cannot be broken up. Let the Germans run towards the north city center. Those who dare to attack our defense line will be killed without mercy. Use guns to tell them that there is no counterattack, only escape. "
"Yes! "
When Kurbalov received the order and left, he stood at the window of the building deep in the actual control area of the leader's division, overlooking the smoke-filled city shrouded in war and the tall landmark building in the distance.
Knowing that his actions would inevitably lead to innocent casualties, and there might be many of them, Malashenko had no choice, and would not hesitate to shake his determination and will because of such things.
As I said to Jill earlier, kindness is not a good thing at this moment, it is a weakness, a fatal weakness that will cause you to suffer multiple critical damage if the enemy catches you with a knife.
If Malashenko had to choose one of the two groups to die
Sorry, only your German civilians will die, no matter how many old, weak, women and children there are, this is not the key to the problem. Malashenko must ensure that what he has to do is to be responsible for the comrades who trust and entrust their lives to him. This is the only and most important key.
Even if it can make this war end half a day earlier, or let the Nazi scum in a block of the war zone surrender a few hours earlier.
Therefore, the number of people who survived will be hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands, and this alone is worth Malashenko's work.
On the eve of the final victory, there is no need to sacrifice so many comrades, so he has to use seemingly cruel and ruthless means to end everything in advance.
"Let's see if your determination and will are as firm and unshakable as the broken building you built, Nazi minions. There is no Nazi creation in this world that is indestructible, including your broken building."
The siege progress of the leader division has exceeded half, and one of the three G-type air defense towers in Berlin City, standing in the Berlin Zoo, has now been fully included in the field of vision.
Now, Malashenko had to watch this damn Nazi dilapidated building being destroyed before his own eyes, just as all the Nazi creations that dared to stand in the way of the leader's division were destroyed without exception.
