Chapter 1249 Uman Encircled

If there is an idiom to describe the Soviet-German battlefield of World War II, the magnificent is the most appropriate.

In the entire Soviet-German battlefield, almost all large corps assembled, and large corps fought. When the German tank troops advanced, it was like the waves on the seaside.

At this time, the Viking Division was still at the forefront as usual. As the Waffen SS, they had their own independent logistical support system, which allowed them to get supplies before other Wehrmacht armored divisions. fast.

At this time, walking in front of the Viking Division was their reconnaissance troop, the Volone Assault Brigade.

The wheeled infantry fighting vehicle galloped across the field, and there were endless fields everywhere, which made the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle run quite smoothly, faster than the tracked vehicle.

Brigade Commander Deguerre was sitting on the Panther 3 tank belonging to his brigade headquarters. While galloping, he used his binoculars to look ahead. He saw smoke rising from the opposite field as well. It was another tank. The army is advancing, the two sides are head-on!

"Watch out, speed up and watch the troops ahead of us," Deguerre called over the radio.

It's getting closer, it's getting closer, De Guerre can see clearly from the telescope, the troops on the opposite side, the ones rushing in front are several BMW motorcycles, the riders on the motorcycles, wearing full motorcycle suits, wide windbreakers , motorcyclist sassy and heroic.

"It's ours!" Deguerre shouted loudly: "Across from us is the 17th Army, and we have joined forces!"

There was a happy voice on the radio.

"We are the forwards of the 17th Army, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

"So do we, long live the Empire!"

The wheeled infantry fighting vehicle rushed forward, and the motorcycles finally met on the flat Ukrainian plain. Standing out from the Panther 3 tank, Deguerre looked at the smoke and dust behind him. It was a large army. advance.

The reunion here is of commemorative significance. From now on, they have completed the encirclement of the defenders in the Uman area, and the more than 200,000 Soviet troops in the encirclement are about to usher in their doomsday!

Since the start of the war, the German army has created one brilliant siege after another, and now, it is finally the turn of the Southern Army.

The encirclement was closed, and then began to gradually compress the encirclement, divide the encirclement into small encirclements, and eat the Soviet troops in one bite!

The German Southern Army finally opened a big mouth and was ready to eat meat.

At the same time, the Bo-2 reconnaissance plane also returned to the rear station and quickly reported this astonishing and terrifying news.

German troops, appearing behind Uman, Uman is in danger!

When it reached Kyiv, Budyonny, who was sitting at the table, immediately stood up, and he felt a whirlwind.

Oversight, this is definitely a huge oversight.

Our side has become a huge protrusion. I have long thought that the Germans want to eat their own side. After deploying in Kyiv for so long, I just didn’t expect that the Germans would suddenly turn around and pounce in the direction of Uman!

"We sent more scouts in the direction of the target, and sure enough, a large number of German tanks were found, and they have now completed the encirclement of Uman." Admiral Kilponos is also worried, we have 20 divisions fallen into the German encirclement.

Originally thought that the huge German army would fight fiercely on the Dnieper River, seize the ferry, and then attack Kyiv, but the Germans pounced on Uman, where the rear is empty, and the Germans are really good at seizing the opportunity.

There was an inexplicable panic and unease in Budyonny's heart at this time. He insisted so hard, but still ushered in this terrible ending.

"We can't mobilize our current army to rescue the Uman defenders." Budyonny calmed himself down and began to analyze: "We are now busy with the defense of Kyiv. If the army is mobilized to rescue, it will make Kyiv's troops empty. , and at the same time, it also happened to fall in the German tactic."

Leaving the fortified Kyiv and heading to Uman, the chances of the reinforcements being wiped out on the way are very high, because the German army is good at fighting in the wild.

There are fewer reinforcements mobilized, and it is not enough to fill the gaps between the Germans' teeth. Too many mobilizations will be detrimental to their own defense of Kyiv.

That is, there is only one result left.

"Order the Uman defenders, at all costs, to break out of the German encirclement, retreat in the direction of Cherkassy, ​​and make repairs after crossing the Dnieper River," Budyonny said.

In Uman's encirclement, there are mainly the 6th and 12th armies. Now, they can only break through by their own strength. This will be a tough battle. Budyonny knows that his order is very important. Inhuman, but there is no way, his first task is to defend Kyiv.

Moreover, he already had a bad premonition that the situation in Ukraine was about to deteriorate. He persisted and hindered the invasion of the German army. Now, the Germans are about to obtain a huge victory.

Behind this, there is a bigger conspiracy!

Budyonny was brooding in front of the map, when a man walked in outside.

"Marshal Budyonny, I'm Captain Kartsev, I just came over from Moscow." Kartsev's face was tired from the journey: "I'm here to help our people adopt new methods when defending the city. tactics to fend off the dreadful bombs of the Germans."

Learn to fight in war.

Up to now, the strategic weapons in the hands of the Germans are the kind of terrible bombs that are carried by bombers. After hundreds of bombers fly over, the entire city can be blown up.

However, the Germans did not use them in every city. It is conceivable that the use of such bombs is limited. For example, it may be expensive to manufacture. For example, the Germans are afraid that the secret of the bomb will be leaked, allowing the Soviet Union to find a solution to confrontation, or Let the Soviets find the secret of the bomb, then copy it and use it to bomb German cities.

First of all, this high-altitude bomber can be intercepted. The Soviet Union is stepping up the production of MiG-3, and at the same time dispersing the deployment of the airport, so that the tragedy of Petersburg will not be repeated again.

Second, before the German ground forces advanced to Petersburg, some Soviet military experts secretly entered Petersburg to study countermeasures.

There were no more buildings on the ground in Petersburg. Even people hiding in the tunnels suffocated to death. The ponds had been baked dry, and those far from the center of the explosion were crushed by shock waves or scorched.

However, they still found survivors.
