"Ulla! Ulla! ”

Countless Russian soldiers were driven into the battlefield by officers, armed with rifles, or rushed towards the German positions with their bare hands, as if they were driving cattle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

What awaited them was the powerful firepower of the German army. Countless semi-automatic rifles, light machine guns, and general-purpose machine guns, as well as grenadiers and mortars, created a dense firepower that was like a storm of steel. Once these steel storms envelop the Russian army, they will bring brutal slaughter, leaving corpses on the battlefield.

The battle was unusually fierce. However, this tragedy is only for the Russian army. Because the entire battlefield is completely one-sided. The offensive of the Russian army is no different from suicide. The Germans only need to slaughter these Russian soldiers with powerful firepower. The process of fighting has also become very simple, and even the German soldiers have gradually become numb. They only need to pull the trigger towards the dense queue of Russian troops, and with so many bullets, they can always kill those Russian soldiers.

"Da Da Da!" An MG09 general-purpose machine gun was firing wildly, and a chain of 250 rounds was exhausted in half a minute, which also made the barrel red.

The well-trained assistant shooter, wearing asbestos gloves, immediately replaced the barrel, and the whole process went smoothly, and it only took more than ten seconds. After that, the universal machine gun began firing again.

More than a hundred meters in front of this machine gun fire point, a thick layer of corpses of Russian soldiers has been piled up, and these corpses are the masterpieces of this general-purpose machine gun.

Its unique sawn sound has become the voice of death on the battlefield. Many Russian soldiers, when they heard this sound, would pee their pants in fright.

"Oh God! Aren't those Russians afraid of death? They don't know that their attack like this is of no use to us at all. If they continue to fight like this, they will only pay more casualties. A German officer said.

"Why do you care so much? Isn't it good that the Russians themselves are going to die? It would be best if all Russians could be like this. We will easily win this war. Another officer said.

This is war, and no one will have pity on the enemy. Because, this is meant to be your life and death. If you have mercy on your enemies, you are cruel to yourself. There are many such examples.

The battle, for the Germans, seemed simple. However, for the Russian army, it is not so wonderful. The troops of the Russian 2nd Army continued to attack, but it was impossible for them to even advance to the German defense line, let alone break through the German defense line and inflict casualties on the German army.

After a day of fighting, the Russian army will lose 10,000 or 20,000 people. Even if the Russian 2nd Army has ten infantry divisions and six cavalry divisions, with a total strength of nearly 200,000 people, it will not last long!

The generals have already complained to Admiral Samsonov more than once, and if they continue to fight like this, their troops will be exhausted.

However, Admiral Samsonov has no choice! Ivan? The order of Colonel Gilinsky must be carried out. Otherwise, he will be greeted by harsh military law.

"That guy from Lenningkamp, why is he moving so slowly? How long will it be before he can take Königsberg, and if he continues like this, my troops will be dead. Admiral Samsonov scolded angrily.

It's a pity that no matter how General Samsonov curses, the marching speed of the 1st Army of the Russian Army is still like a snail. It's not that they don't want to speed up, it's that they really can't do it fast! The German 17th Army, taking advantage of the terrain, successfully delayed the actions of the Russian army. Admiral Leinenkamp even tried to send out the Cossack cavalry to attack, but was beaten back by the Germans and suffered heavy losses. In that case, Admiral Leningkamp would not dare to take any more risks. He wanted to rush to Königsberg, but he wanted to preserve his strength.

Time is passing little by little, and the vital forces of the 2nd Army of the Russian Army are constantly being consumed. At the same time, the morale of the troops is also declining.

And the counterattack of the main forces of the German 8th Army was also well prepared.

On the night of the 20th, the 8th Panzer Division, not far from Fort Tennan, was well lit. Soldiers, they are hurrying to overhaul the tanks to ensure that when they attack tomorrow, each tank will be in peak condition.

Colonel Guderian and Lieutenant Colonel Rommel summoned the officers of the 8th Panzer Division to carefully study tactics and propose solutions to problems that might arise in battle.

The meeting lasted until late at night. But Colonel Guderian and Lieutenant General Rommel did not feel tired at all, only excited.

"Rommel, tomorrow is the first battle of our 8th Panzer Division, and it is also the battle in which we prove ourselves. I am confident that we will succeed. Colonel Guderian lamented.

Rommel nodded, he and Guderian can be called the youngest division commander and deputy division commander of the 8th Army and even the entire German Imperial Army, and the pressure they are under can naturally be imagined. Even with Qin Tian's support, there are still many people who are jealous of their status. And the only thing they could do was to prove themselves with victory, and also to prove that Qin Tian's vision was not wrong.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trusts us so much, then the only thing we can bring him is victory. Tomorrow, let's prove us with the corpses of the Russians! Lieutenant Colonel Rommel said.

Early the next morning, German artillery began to launch a heavy artillery bombardment of the positions of the Russian troops. Unlike usual, their artillery fire began to extend backwards after twenty minutes of wanton looting at the forward positions of the Russian army, which made the commander of the Russian army feel that something was not right.

The preparation of German artillery fire looks like a precursor to a large-scale offensive!

However, before the officers at the front reported the news to Colonel-General Samsonov, the German counterattack began.

It was the German 8th Panzer Division that took the lead. Both Guderian and Rommel boarded the command car and personally directed the 8th Panzer Division to attack. More than a hundred tanks, driven by tank quilts, rushed out of their positions, forming a torrent of steel and rushing towards the positions of the Russian army, as if to destroy everything that stood in their way.
