The 505 Tank Destroyer Battalion, which attacked the villages and small towns in the south of Minsk, was able to concentrate its forces at this time, only the remaining 3 platoons of the 1st Company, a total of 11 tanks.

The 2nd Company was left behind and was not allowed to participate in the attack. After all, they had to prevent the Soviets from breaking through from the flank, affecting the already insufficient supply of the German army.

Relying on a dozen tanks to attack was a challenge for the German forces, but the good news was that as the skies brightened, the Luftwaffe was once again in mass action.

As time passed, the fog on the ground gradually cleared and visibility grew.

The clear sky above the battlefield was cloudless, and the German bombers like locusts finally appeared on all fronts, in the eyes of the German ground soldiers.

This is undoubtedly good news, the air force sortie represents a significant increase in the pressure on the Polish ground forces, and effective support can also alleviate the embarrassment of the lack of heavy firepower of the German army.

And the incessant sound of loud explosions in the distance also proves that the air force units are destroying the opponent.

The constant black smoke rising from the horizon and the occasional Stuka dive bomber flying overhead confirmed that the superiority was firmly in the hands of the Germans.

At least all information indicates that the Luftwaffe has indeed gained air supremacy, and that the Soviet Air Force has been driven out of the engagement zone.

Despite the joy of the Air Force, the fighting on the ground continues. After passing through the woods, the captured Soviet map in the hands of Karyus showed that the road was open and open.

Originally, they thought they would not encounter any problems, but they were blocked by a trouble caused by their own people.

The only road in the vicinity, the road they were on, was destroyed by Stuka bombers!

A huge crater with a diameter of 10 meters completely deprives this section of the road of its proper usefulness.

"Hell! Air force...... The idiots...... Have their brains been eaten by dogs? The annoyed voice of the Kent guy came through the headphones.

Soon, the entire tank company was forced to stop, and the two assault guns covering the tank company, as well as the armored vehicles and trucks loaded with infantry, also stopped.

The company commander's inquiry then came over the radio: "Why did it stop?" Any questions? ”

"Of course, the problem is too big...... Our road is blocked by a crater! Good job done by the Air Force! Kent said helplessly.

The company commander asked depressedly, "Think of a way!" Can you get around? ”

And so the tragedy began, hundreds of Soviet soldiers and a single KV-2 tank were unable to stop the German advance, but a huge crater in the right place did just that.

All the infantry in the rear had to jump out of the truck and start using all the tools to fill the huge crater.

A whole hour of precious time was spent in the construction of roads for the Soviet Union. It wasn't until it was time for lunch that the Karyus reluctantly got on their way and continued in the direction of their target.

After careful preparation, the German troops, under the cover of tanks, slaughtered the target they had already set for attack, the town called Smirovich.

However, something unthinkable happened, the Soviets abandoned the area, and they retreated to the farther and safer area of Chervin.

In other words, Smirovich, a strategic point that was supposed to be fiercely contested, was surrendered by the Soviet army and given to the German attacking forces in vain.

An imaginary battle did not break out, and all the tactics that had been prepared became a joke. The townspeople watched uneasily as German tanks drove through the streets, and many of them shook their arms in anticipation to welcome the liberators......

Yes, for Belarus the Germans are about the same as the liberators. The local civilian population was also oppressed by ethnic Russians and had long been reluctant to remain part of the Soviet Union.

These Belarusians, like Ukrainians, are not treated equally by Russians.

So, when the German tanks passed by, they didn't put up any resistance, they didn't even think of fleeing.

"They treat us as allies...... See? Leaning against the turret of the tank, Karyus was visibly stunned by the sight before him.

He didn't know why he was so welcome here, and some people were even willing to bring boiling water to them with a cup to thank them for their hard work.

"Maybe the people here are crazy...... But I love the feeling, it makes me feel like a hero. Driving in front of the Karjus tank, it was still the Kent tank, he said to Karyus over the radio.

"I like the feeling too, it makes me feel like everything I'm doing is meaningful." The company commander also joined the discussion, and more and more Belarusians welcomed them.

"Yes! If they hadn't been holding flowers and wine, I would have thought they were here to besiege us. Karjus laughed and looked at what was happening in front of him.

At first, they feared that they would not have enough troops to capture the town of Smirovich.

But in the blink of an eye, they had already occupied the place, and they didn't even fire a single shot. There was no resistance, just enthusiastic waving and whispered cheers.

The streets and alleys were full of men, women, and children, some of whom looked shyly at the passing German troops from the windows on the second floor, with only curiosity in their eyes, not half hostile.

Sometimes strange things happened as a matter of course, and Smirovich did not fight any battles, and calmly became a German occupation zone.

As long as they continue to attack to the east, Minsk will become a huge encirclement! By that time, the Soviet troops near Minsk would have fallen into another desperate situation.

It is estimated that just like the encirclement of Brest, the Soviets will surrender little by little, and eventually hundreds of thousands of people will be taken prisoner.

If you think about it, you will feel that this is another great victory. The Führer led the German people to defeat the enemy who was trying to invade Germany and expanded the living space of the German nation!

It reminded them of the time they had wasted on the road, where the air force seemed to have caused them more trouble than the resistance of the Soviets.

"The Russians owe our Air Force a letter of thanks!" Karyus looked at the two patrolling German fighters the size of a grain of rice in the sky and sighed.

"Yes! The Russians owe a letter of thanks to the Luftwaffe. Kent heard the joke and laughed along.
