"Tiger tank! Tiger Tank! I was discovered by them...... Mom, I'm done, ah......"

Captain Samokin's American headset was heard screaming from the voice of one of his tank commanders, named Utkin, who was driving a T-34/76 that was impossible to fight the Tiger. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info, but the result of the T-34/85 being targeted by the Tiger tank in the same way is the same - all of them become glorious revolutionary martyrs!

Communication with the Utkin crew was immediately interrupted, and it seemed that the four men had become martyrs. However, Captain Samokin did not have any intention of rushing out to avenge his comrades, because the only result of rushing out from behind the hidden mound was to be crushed by the 88mm cannon of the Tiger type...... There is no doubt about it, anyway, Captain Samokin has not heard of anyone who escaped from under the muzzle of the Tiger tank since the outbreak of the Soviet-German war - in fact, it is impossible, because the current German Tiger tank has tungsten alloy hard-core armor-piercing shells (type shells) that can be used, and the 138mm homogeneous steel plate with a 30-degree inclination angle is stable at a distance of 1,000 meters, and the accuracy of hitting is extremely high. Even at a distance of 1500 meters, such shells were able to penetrate 123mm homogeneous steel plates at an inclination of 30 degrees.

That is, all Soviet tanks and tank destroyers are now impossible to carry head-on without the cover of fortifications.

Moreover, the Tiger tank never goes out alone, it has always been on the side of the No. 4, there is a "rhino" behind it - it is equipped with a 71 times the diameter of the 88mm gun, the use of tungsten alloy hard core armor-piercing shells, 2000 meters distance can kill all Soviet tanks in seconds!

However, the Soviet tank crews are not at all helpless against the German tank clusters, and their method is to ambush and shoot the black artillery. The T-34/76 was sometimes used as a decoy to lure German tanks and create conditions for an attack by ambushed T-35/57, KV-85, Su-85 or anti-tank guns.

So Samokin was now just quietly waiting for the German tank/infantry clusters approaching under flares and moonlight - they had just broken through the first line of defense made up of T-34/76 tanks, and now was the time to be proud!

Captain Samokin then kicked the driver Shevchenko in the shoulder with his boot - it was at high speed that he kept the vehicle starting, ready to transfer at any moment.

Because Captain Samokin had already found the target of the attack, a Tiger tank that was slowly approaching.

"Armor-piercing bullets!" He gave the order to the loader, and a 57mm armor-piercing projectile was quickly pushed into the chamber, after which he pressed the launch button without hesitation!

Rumble!

A cloud of fireworks suddenly rose up in front of the Tiger tank chosen by Samokin.

One hit!

"Hurry, hurry! Hurry up! He didn't look to see if the Tiger tank that had been hit was finished, but shouted and kicked the driver Shevchenko twice in the shoulder.

Immediately, a screeching noise rang out, and the vehicle shook violently and backwards. After retreating a few dozen meters, he made another U-turn, and then ran to the next ambush position at full speed.

This is a one-shot shot, and the tactics of the air are applied to the tank combat on the ground!

However, this tactic was a bit reluctant for the tank units of the Soviet Red Army, which lacked high-precision artillery and high-quality armor-piercing shells. If the Germans had played like this, the effect would have been much better......

Sergeant Major Kenspeer, the German ace tank commander, saw Venus in front of his eyes and his ears were buzzing. His tank had just been hit by a 57mm shell! Luckily, the shell hit the shield and failed to penetrate, but it still startled Kenspeer and Marks.

Kempel came back to his senses and knew that he had been shot by a black cannon, so he hurriedly looked for the target through the commander's repertoire, and soon saw a huge black shadow about 4 or 500 meters away.

"Stop!" He gave the order through the phone in the car, "At 10 o'clock, that dark shadow, kill it!" ”

"Click-and-......" first fired a string of tracer bullets from the coaxial machine gun, which hit the black shadow in front of it, and then there was a loud "boom", which meant that the black shadow of the Soviet tank was beaten into a ball of flames.

It was the T-34/57 tank in which the Soviet tank ace, Captain Samokin, was hit!

……

"Hell!"

Colonel General Lukin, commander of the 5th Tank Army, who was standing on the roof of the Red Star Primary School building in Collective Farm No. 13, cursed hatefully, because he found that the carefully arranged defense line was not as strong as he imagined, and the German tank cluster easily pierced the first line of defense.

"Comrade Commander...... "Major General Dubkov, Chief of Staff of the 5th Tank Army, also climbed on the roof, he did not come to watch the battle, but to convey the order of the Front Command to Lukin." The Front ordered us to hold out at least 10 days in Klimovich in order to cooperate with the main offensive in the Gomel direction. ”

"10 days ......" Lukin took a light breath, he originally thought that the 5th Tank Army could hold out for more than 15 days, but the battle from this afternoon to now made him a little confused.

Moreover, he is now a little skeptical that the 1st and 2nd Tank Armies will be able to take Gomel smoothly?

"Ten days can still be held," Lukin retracted, "the key is collective farm No. 13 and the nearby forest...... What is the forest called? ”

"It's called the June 1st Forest." Major General Dubkov replied.

The name was changed in June '42 to commemorate the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, which at that time commemorated the outbreak of the world revolution......

"Farm 13 and Red May Farm are the key to the defensive battle," Lukin said, "and our tank army will not be able to resist it on the plains, but it will be able to hold it with the help of forests and farms...... Hasn't the Katyn Forest been on guard for a few days? ”

"You're right, then let the troops be deployed in the farms and forests."

Lukin nodded, "But we need to take Collective Farm 13 first...... Take it all down! ”

Major General Dubkov turned his head to look in the direction of the field department, where the sound of gunfire and explosions was still coming from, indicating that the fierce battle was still going on.

The Ukrainian traitors who are guarding there are really stubborn! Admiral Lukin shook his head and said, "We must take it tonight!" He thought for a moment and said, "That's right...... I came up with a way to have the Su-122 assault gun hang up a bucket as a bulldozer and bury all the windows in the basement of the field building, so that we should take the building quickly.

In addition, by reporting to the higher-ups, it was already possible to confirm that the German panzer cluster that appeared in the area of Klimovich had at least several panzer divisions! ”

……

"Comrade General Secretary, according to the report of the commander of the 5th Tank Army, Colonel-General Lukin, we can basically confirm that the German armored cluster in the area of Klimovich is huge, and there are at least several armored divisions."

When Pavlov reported this "good news" to Stalin, the expression on his face was very solemn.

"Comrade Pavlov, is there any bad news?" Stalin looked at Pavlov and asked.

"Yes," Pavlov nodded, "the Air Force also spotted a large German armored unit of the Olyosha and maneuvering along the road towards Roslavl...... Presumably, it was an attempt to outflank the rear of the 5th Tank Army.

In addition, the situation in Smolensk is extremely serious, the Katyn Forest will be lost as soon as tomorrow morning, and the city of Smolensk is already surrounded on three sides. ”

"Surrounded on three sides? Why not on all sides? "There was something strange about Stalin.

"It may be that the Germans were reluctant to storm Smolensk, so they left a retreat for our men." This was stated by the General Staff of the General Staff, Shaposhnikov.

"Can't retreat!" Stalin said categorically, "This is a critical moment, and the Red Army must not take a step back!"

Not only Smolensk must not give up, but even Klimovich's tank 5th Army must hold out to the end! ”

Pavlov's brows furrowed deeply, his and Shaposhnikov's private plan was actually to delay the change, Smolensk was an outcast, and the battle of the joint army could also be abandoned in the unfavorable situation. Only Leningrad, Moscow and the Kharkov-Donetsk industrial zone must be held.

Seeing Pavlov's frown, Stalin abruptly aggravated his tone and said: "I know that this decision will cause the sacrifice of many Red Army soldiers, and may even lead to the destruction of the 5th Tank Army and some other main forces of the Red Army with a glorious history. But in order to win the final victory in the Great Patriotic War, such a price was worth it and necessary. In order to win the vital battle of the Junction, in order to reverse the unfavorable situation on the Soviet-German battlefield, the Supreme High Command should give the most severe order! ”

Hearing this, Pavlov and Shaposhnikov looked at each other, and neither dared to tell Stalin about his intentions, nor did he dare to persuade him any more, so he took out his notebook and pen and began to record.

Stalin said: "From now on, it is necessary to give all officers, soldiers, and political officers an ironclad discipline: no half step back is allowed without an order from above." Whether he is a company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander, division commander, or political commissar, as long as he retreats without the order of the superior commander, he is a traitor, and he must be dealt with as a traitor to the motherland.

At the same time, all the troops surrounded by the enemy must also maintain high morale and firm convictions, and must never allow surrender to the enemy, but must fight to the end without hesitation, protect their equipment with their lives, strike at the enemy from the enemy's rear, and eliminate the Nazi lackeys. If they do not do that, but shamefully surrender to the enemy, then not only will they be considered traitors to the Motherland, but the family will be deprived of all the state rights and salvation they enjoy!
