Chapter 339 Encirclement

News came one by one, and in the small town of Mokra, Brigade Commander Felipovitz listened to the news one after another from the front line, and his mood was extremely sad.

Cavalry regiment, besieged, armored train, destroyed, armored battalion, all killed.

In his hands, there are still two cavalry regiments in reserve, but now, the situation is very clear, even if he sends these cavalry regiments, he can only die.

How to do?

The middle road has been conquered by the Germans. Now, the Germans have passed through the wooded area and headed straight for Mokra. Therefore, the defensive forces deployed on the northern and southern fronts are useless.

"Remove the 19th Cavalry and the 4th and 7th Machine Gun Battalions of the 84th Infantry to Mokra!" Felipovitz said. "Now, we will live and die in Mokra, with the city."

The middle road was broken through, and the defense of the north and south sides lost value. Now, the only thing he can do is to fight in the streets of Mokra City, try to delay the German attack as much as possible, and wait for reinforcements at the same time.

If not, then die here.

Street fighting has always been a battlefield like a meat grinder. The defenders can rely on the terrain to continuously destroy the enemy, kill the enemy's living strength, and finally make the opponent have to give up because of the excessive casualties.

In World War II, there were too many such scenes, and Leningrad and Stalingrad were the most common examples.

It's just that Felipovitz didn't know that his order made his subordinates suffer even more losses.

The order to withdraw the Mokra defense was quickly passed to the defense area of ​​the 19th cavalry regiment. After receiving the order, the head of the cavalry regiment immediately mounted his horse without hesitation.

"Back to defense, back to Mokra." The regimental commander shouted loudly.

Hundreds of young men stepped on their horses. In the woods, they were very angry. They listened to the sound of gunfire on the central defense line, but they couldn't help. They had their own mission, which was to protect this place.

Now, after waiting for a long time, they received an order to retreat without firing a shot.

Soldiers are bound to obey orders. So, the riders of the cavalry regiment got on their horses and prepared to return to the city.

For the cavalry, many people have misunderstandings, watching the cavalry riding horses, in full bloom, in fact, it is only the time of war.

In normal times, the cavalry are reluctant to ride their own war horses. Every horse is their treasure. In normal times, when the cavalry moves, they walk with their horses on their feet, so that the horses can always maintain sufficient strength. , to deal with various situations.

But now, it was an emergency, and they had to go back to Mokra immediately, so everyone got on their horses, and in the woods, they started walking east.

Horses' hooves trampled on dead branches, and every Polish soldier was very panicked, and he couldn't say why.

Over the years, the Polish soldiers have gone to the east and west to beg, and they have not suffered any losses. Just last year, they took a bite of meat from the Czech Republic. Therefore, they are very proud, but now, they have been abused.

The Poles are very wounded, they can even defeat the bears, but they can't find their dignity in a country that was defeated in World War I!

Damn, it's so damn bad!

Riding on horses, the hearts of the Polish soldiers were heavy. In front of them, the woods became more and more sparse. In front of them, they suddenly became brighter.

Already out of the woods, the small town is in front of you, the cavalry is fast, and it will be there in ten minutes.

What do you do when you are in a bad mood? Some people will drink, some people will go to K song, some people will go to find a girl who has lost their way to vent, and some people will run wild.

If you don't have a horse, you will run wild on the playground, and if you have a horse, you will run wild on a horse.

The current Polish cavalry is just like this. Facing the strong wind, bumping on the horseback is their way of venting. They even waved the whip twice without hesitation to make the horse run faster.

However, at this moment, suddenly, there was a rumbling sound in the distance.

what happened? The galloping cavalry slowly turned their heads, looked behind and looked around.

When did tanks appear here?

There are tanks all around. Although there are not many, there are tanks at intervals of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters. However, these tanks are a perfect encirclement!

Oops, surrounded!

Sitting in his tank, Wittmann was happy.

When he broke through the Polish armored battalion and was about to attack Mokra with victory, his armored company received an order from the regiment commander to go all the way north and run here to set up an ambush.

At the time, he still resisted, he wanted to be the first tanker to attack Mokra, but now, when he found the Polish cavalry jumping out of the woods, he was excited.

The woods are the natural enemies of tanks. Tanks are in the woods and are easily approached by the cavalry. Even throwing a Molotov cocktail over will make the tankers feel ashamed. Now, the cavalry that emerges from the woods is on the field. There is no other way but death!

The head of the regiment, or the teacher, is really far-sighted.

Wittmann knows that as a tanker, he is competent himself, but as a commander, he still has a long way to go. He has to judge the enemy's situation, analyze the battle situation, and advance Arrange the pockets, there is a lot of knowledge in it, and he still needs to learn and summarize.

Of course, for now, his armored company surrounded a regiment of Polish cavalry, and below, there was a one-sided massacre.

"Fire!" came the command of the company commander on the radio. The company commander, Heinz Kling, was also quite excited at this time. They had just set up the encirclement and the Polish cavalry came out. Now, to surround the Polish cavalry is a good opportunity to gather and destroy them.

On the tanks, machine guns were firing frantically.

The Panther 3 tank has two machine guns. On the right end of the front body, there is a machine gun for radio operators. This is a 7.92mm machine gun. On the turret, there is another machine gun that rotates coaxially with the tank gun. The 7.92mm machine guns are all MG34 machine guns.

At the same time, there are three MP38 submachine guns in the car body, so when needed, the five tank crew members are all bursting firepower, and the machine guns on the car body are also easy to remove.

Now, drill into your own tank, you don't need to start the tank gun, two machine guns, and throw a rain of bullets at the Polish cavalry on the opposite side!

This way, it consumes a lot, and even half of the shells have been destroyed. Therefore, the tank shells must be used sparingly. For the cavalry without any armor protection, as long as the machine guns, they can be cleaned up!

All over the field, only tank machine guns were roaring.
