Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

When the German motorcycles were only a hundred meters from the edge of the forest, the vehicle-mounted machine guns of the Soviet tanks in front of them opened fire at the same time, and several fire whips swept across. Under the fierce fire, the motorcyclists who were out of danger were hit head-on, and they were immediately beaten on their backs.

The German tanks and armored vehicles that lagged behind were also wiped out by the rapid fire of the artillery regiment, becoming piles of burning wreckage. The tank crews, who were lucky enough to escape from the burning car, ran a few steps before they were cut down by the shrapnel flying everywhere, and fell on this land full of craters and gunpowder smoke without worry.

Although the road to the east of the German army was tightly blocked by tanks and armored vehicles that had not yet been destroyed, it was almost impossible to pass through this section under the blockade of Soviet artillery.

Seeing that more than half an hour had passed, the mechanized column was crowded together, still standing motionless, and the German commander could not sit still in his car, and after getting out of the car, he asked his subordinates irritably: "What's the matter, hasn't the road ahead been opened yet?" ”

A German commander who rushed back from the front, his face blackened by gunpowder, reported in a dry voice: "Mr. Colonel, the road ahead is blocked by Russian artillery fire, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to pass directly. And the several attacks we launched ended in failure. I think we should liaise with the air force and get them to immediately bomb the forest where the Russians are hiding, kill them or drive them out of it, so that we can get through this death zone without any problems. ”

After listening to the words of his subordinates, the colonel said with a bitter face: "Major, do you think that you are a marshal, and a phone call can make the hellish air force go out and bomb for us those Russians who are hiding in the forest like cowards?" ”

When the major heard what the colonel said, he immediately became excited: "Mr. Colonel, our entire offensive road is blocked by German artillery and tank fire. Without the support of the Air Force, how could we possibly wipe out those damned Russians with just our current strength? ”

The colonel desperately suppressed the anger in his chest, and said to his subordinates in a calm tone as much as possible: "Major, if you go back and organize a new attack, you must destroy all the Russians hiding in the forest in the shortest possible time and open the road to Rivne, understand?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Colonel!" The major knew that this was an order to send him to death, but he still agreed to it.

After watching the major leave, the German command quickly came to the side of an armored personnel carrier, looked up and said to the signal soldier sitting in the carriage: "Hey, signal soldier, immediately get in touch with the air force, say that our fast column has been blocked by the Russians, and ask the air force to provide us with the necessary support." ”

And Rokossovsky, who was staying at the observation post at the moment, saw another German attack and was repulsed by the heroic artillery. The open field strewn with craters was littered with the mutilated corpses of German officers and soldiers, and around them, tanks, armored vehicles and motorcycles were burning.

He raised his binoculars and looked at the east side of the road for a while, and saw from a distance that the first part of the enemy to be spared was assembling in that direction, as if there was an attempt to attack the enemy on the west side of the road on both sides. He put down his binoculars and said to Novikov: "You immediately contact the two motorized battalions lying in ambush in front and let them pay close attention to the movements of the German troops, and as soon as the enemy turns around and moves westward, they will immediately attack from behind the enemy." ”

Novikov agreed, picked up the phone on the table, called the motorized battalion, which was a few kilometers away, and conveyed Rokossovsky's order to the battalion commander, Major Matlov.

Although the Germans in the distance were gathering, there was no sign of attacking for a long time, Rokossovsky waited a little impatiently, so he turned around and asked Chernyaev: "Colonel, you see that although the Germans are almost assembled, if they don't attack, can you let your artillery commander directly shell them?" ”

Chernyaev looked into the distance, then shook his head and said: "No, Comrade Commander, since the firing range is limited, in order to hit such a distant target, it is necessary to push all the artillery out of the forest. ”

Rokossovsky raised his hand and looked at his watch, and then urged Chernyaev: "In that case, Comrade Colonel, let the soldiers of the artillery regiment hurry up and push the artillery out of the forest." The sooner this enemy is destroyed, we can continue to teach the Germans elsewhere. ”

In a short time, the artillerymen pushed more than two dozen cannons out of the forest and lined them up in a neat row. At the command of the artillery commander, the artillery opened fire decisively. Shells whizzed into the Germans' assembly area, blasting the enemy to the point of howling, burning tanks, armored vehicles and motorcycles, and the infantry running around like headless flies.

At this moment, Novikov, who was standing beside Rokossovsky, suddenly exclaimed: "The enemy from the east is also coming." ”

Rokossovsky reversed the telescope and cleared the way for the enemy to the east by motorcycle, followed by a long motorbike platoon of tanks and armored vehicles. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help laughing, and then said softly: "Our artillery has more targets to shoot again." ”

Without an order from Rokossovsky or Chernyaev, the artillery commander had already spotted the enemy from the east and hurriedly ordered some of the artillery to turn its guns and open fire on the rushing enemy. The shell landed accurately in the middle of the convoy and exploded, overturning one motorcycle after another, blowing the soldiers sitting on it to the ground; Tanks and armored vehicles were also destroyed, making them burn like bonfires.

But the artillery firing to the east stopped after only a few rounds. Just when Rokossovsky was wondering, he only heard a faint shout in the distance, and he followed the sound and found that behind the enemy there was a unit of his own, and it seemed that the motorized battalion had taken the initiative to attack the enemy.

The German troops, who had been shelled, were already in confusion, and when they saw another unit rushing up from behind, they immediately scattered and fled, some running in the direction of the forest on the north or south side of the road, and some running west regardless of the road. And some of the soldiers who were dazed actually rushed towards the commanders and fighters of the motorized battalion, but unfortunately before they could rush in, they were beaten into a sieve by the weapons in the hands of the commanders and fighters of the Soviet army.

The attacking troops got closer and closer, and the commanders and fighters of the motorized battalion shouted Ulla and pounced on the enemy like a tidal wave. Listening to the shouts getting closer and closer, Rokossovsky, who had long been stimulated by the slogans of the commanders and fighters, put down the binoculars, turned to Novikov and said: "Comrade General, send a tank battalion to attack and intercept this group of enemies." ”

With Novikov's order, the tank battalion, which received the order to attack, rushed out of the forest at full speed like a tiger descending from the mountain. The sudden appearance of the tanks frightened the German officers and soldiers who were scattering and fleeing, and they probably never dreamed that there would be so many tanks rushing towards them at such a time and place.

The smarter ones immediately jumped into the crater on the side of the road, hid in it with their guns, and prepared to raise their hands as prisoners when the Soviet commanders and fighters rushed up; The rest of the German soldiers either stood in a daze or fired in vain at the rushing tanks with their weapons. The bullets that hit the body of the tank bounced off one spark after another, and the tank did not suffer any serious damage. Seeing these German officers and soldiers exposed on the open ground, the Soviet tank crews were overjoyed, and they would not be polite in the face of these live targets, and the tank's on-board machine guns and tank guns fired together, destroying these German soldiers one by one as if they were shooting targets.

Seeing this scene, Rokossovsky put down his binoculars and said lightly to the two division commanders beside him: "This group of Germans will soon be all finished." ”
