Chapter 1211 Late
The Lightning Bomber was just a flash in the face. The main bombing was still solved by the Junkers-290. After entering the bombing route, they started the smoothest flight. At the same time, the attack sights began to run at high speed. Final solution.
There are more than 200 Junkers-290s, the queue is quite huge, plus about a hundred FW190s, three hundred aircraft, densely packed in the sky, like locusts.
It can be seen visually from far away.
At this time, the citizens of the wet Petersburg, who had just come up from the river, were shivering from the cold.
"Look, what is that?" shouted a sharp-eyed citizen.
Following the direction of his fingers, other people looked over, and suddenly, deep in their hearts, a deep tremor came.
The Soviet Union wanted to blow up Berlin, and it used all its resources to send out so few bombers. In the end, only one flew to its destination. Now, the German bomber fleet is simply impossible to see at a glance.
Germans are invincible.
"Hurry up, jump into the water!" Someone has already responded.
When the first bomber flew by, they were still a little despised, thinking that the bombing of the Germans was nothing more than that, but now that they saw the real German main bomber group, they all trembled in their hearts.
Those planes were overwhelming, like locusts. Even the most common bomb could blow Petersburg into ruins, not to mention the most terrifying bomb in the legend.
They jumped into the icy river water again, they raised their heads and watched the planes come, and when the other party dropped the bomb, they took a deep breath and hurried to the bottom.
After that, whether they can survive or not depends on their own creation.
This matter cannot be delayed, it must be fast!
A famous citizen jumped into the water again, and in their hearts, there was nothing but fear.
Only the sound of the piano still fluttered over the entire city.
Downtown, City Defense Command.
"The German bomber swarm is about to reach us. If we don't think about it, the next moment, the whole city will face the threat of death."
At this time, the atmosphere in the headquarters was quite tense.
It was supposed to be Marshal Voroshinov, but he went out to inspect the city's defense this morning. It is said that he went to the air base again. Later, the air base suffered a devastating blow, and there has been no ambush. A message from Marshal Roshinov.
In the headquarters, Major General Ivanov, commander of the 42nd Army, and Major General Shcherbakov, the commander of the 8th Army, are now at odds with each other.
Ivanov's words just now made Shcherbakov very disgusted: "Ivanov, what do you mean?"
They are all commanders of the army, and they are responsible for the city's defense of the entire Petersburg. Once the German army starts to attack, they will rely on the city to conduct street battles step by step, drag the enemy, and win the arrival of reinforcements.
But now, they are useless, the Germans are going to completely destroy the whole city from the air.
"Now make a statement, our entire city surrenders, and we can avoid being bombed by the Germans." At this time, at the juncture of life and death, Ivanov did not shy away: "This is the only way to save Petersburg. "
"Surrender?" Shcherbakov took out his pistol and put it on the table: "Who dares to say surrender, first ask me if the gun in my hand agrees or not, the Soviet soldiers and civilians will not surrender without a fight of!"
"But our hundreds of thousands of citizens are innocent!" Ivanov said: "Do you have the heart to watch the citizens outside be brutally killed?"
Ivanov opened the window and shouted to Shcherbakov: "Look, look at the river outside, how many citizens are there? They will die tragically in fear!"
After speaking, Ivanov suddenly became more angry, and now he is dead anyway, and he is not afraid of anything: "For political purposes, Stalin refused the people of our city to retreat, so why should we sacrifice a few for this wrong order? One hundred thousand citizens? It wasn't the Germans who killed our citizens, it was Stalin!"
The major purges in the past few years have left the army with no voice of opposition, but now they are going to die anyway. No one in the city can escape, and Ivanov is also fighting.
If Shcherbakov wants to oppose himself, let him pick up the gun and shoot, sooner or later, within ten minutes, the people present are not alive.
Shcherbakov's hand reached out to the pistol on the table. At this moment, the whole room fell silent. Next, a conflict would break out on the spot.
Unexpectedly, Shcherbakov put the pistol back in the holster and said: "Ivanov, this is your act alone, it has nothing to do with me, it is also the act of your 42nd Army, and our 8th Army. It doesn't matter."
After that, Shcherbakov actually left.
Damn, this sly guy, the black cauldron wants to let himself back! Ivanov gritted his teeth: "Immediately send a message to Germany with a clear telegram that our entire Petersburg defenders are willing to surrender to Germany."
The only solution to the immediate predicament, the only way to free hundreds of thousands of civilians in Petersburg from death, is to surrender. At this time, no soldier's honor or loyalty to the motherland is worth the test of life and death.
Nothing is more important than surviving.
"DiDi, DiDi." A few seconds later, the sound of a telegram rang out in the next room.
"Drop the bomb!" Following Axet's order, the Junkers-290 bombers opened the doors of the belly, and the ten-ton bomb almost occupied the entire bomb bay just right. Now, One by one bombs fell from the bomb bay and began to fall swayingly.
These bombs fell together in the sky, as if a terrible storm was coming, which actually darkened the entire Petersburg sky.
"It's still too late!" Looking at the bombs falling from the sky, Ivanov crouched down in pain, it was too late!
It takes time for a bomb at an altitude of 10,000 meters to fall. At this time, the anti-aircraft artillery on the ground is firing violently at the sky. Unfortunately, there is still no shot down. airspace below meters.
With the fall of the bomb, the end of Petersburg entered the final countdown.
The roar in the distant sky and the falling of the bomb could not stop Shostakovich from playing the piano at all. At this time, he was completely immersed in the world of music, where he was the protagonist.
