Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2527 Cossack Servant Army
Because of the participation of southern African troops in the Battle of Budapest, the battle report is authentic.

In December, the Danube is in a dry season. The river has narrowed and is completely frozen. Cars can drive, but tanks cannot.

Last week, Lieutenant General Zhmachenko, the commander of the Russian 10th Army, sent an armored force to try to bypass the German positions through the frozen river and attack the German positions.

The result was bad. The ice could not bear the 45-ton IS-2. When the four IS-2s drove onto the ice together, the ice cracked and the four IS-2s sank into the water. Now there is only one cannon left The pipe is exposed on the river.

This failed assault is just a microcosm of the Battle of Budapest. Since the resumption of the offensive, the Russian army seems to have suddenly become incapable of fighting. The continuous loss of soldiers and generals has greatly affected morale, and the generals have also been implicated. In the last week, there have been three The commanders of the armies were replaced.

"The commander of the 53rd Army has changed again. Lieutenant General Galanin is now—" Chen Cang was very worried about his Russian counterparts. Being a general in Russia is no less dangerous than being a prime minister in France.

"What happened to Major General Tarasov?" Blake also had lingering fears. Fortunately, neither Rock nor Arthur was a cruel person.

The 53rd Army, part of the Second Front, was one of the first Russian troops to take part in the attack on Budapest.

The resistance of the Germans was extremely fierce, and the progress of the 53rd Army was not good. After the failure of the first attack, Lieutenant General Managarov, the commander of the army, was dismissed from his post, and his successor was Major General Tarasov.

Before Chen Cang figured out how to spell the name "Tarasov", the commander of the 53rd Army was changed again.

Tragically, these dismissed commanders usually end badly.

"Who knows, I hope he won't go to Siberia to grow potatoes—" Chen Cang was not playing tricks, but sincerely praying.

If it's just potatoes, it's already a better result.

"Before Christmas, we will definitely not be able to end the battle." Black was slightly pessimistic. The situation in Russia was not good, and someone had to be the scapegoat.

The German defenders on the other side of the Danube did not exceed 15 at most.

Russia has assembled 150 million people, and ten people fight one.

There was no suspense in the battle, but the result was indeed one-sided, and Russia was still the one that was beaten, which must have made the bearded man furious.

For Chen Cang and Black, they don't know how much the Russian army lost. It is roughly estimated that it will not be less than 20 people.

If this result happened on the side of the Southern African army, the whole of Southern Africa would be shaken. Since the outbreak of the World War, Southern Africa has never lost more than 10 people in a single battle.

It's commonplace in Russia.

I feel that if the Russian army does not lose 10 people in a battle, it will not meet the battle standard.

"Order the troops to be patient, we have to maintain the balance of the front—" Chen Cang did not rush forward. Unlike the struggling Russians, the southern African side has already invaded the center of Buda. If necessary, it is better to end the battle before Christmas. possible.

The Danube is really well-defined, and the battles on both sides broke out almost at the same time, but the intensity was completely different.

On the Russian side, the Germans fought to the death and never retreated. There were often battles at the platoon level, and no one surrendered until the entire army was wiped out.

On the southern African side, the servants had no intention of fighting, and only carried out perfunctory resistance. Fighting a war was like going to work. They raised their hands and surrendered after shooting two casual shots, without any psychological barriers.

According to the officers and soldiers of the servant army who surrendered, the troops with the most tenacious fighting will on the Buda side were not the Germans, nor the Hungarian servant army, but an army from Russia.

After Chen Cang learned more about it, he found out that this Russian army came from Ukraine.

Ukraine is rich in Cossacks.

The Cossacks, on the other hand, have no loyalty at all.

It cannot be said that in the era of imperial Russia, the loyalty of the Cossacks to the tsar was still very high.

After the establishment of the current Russian government, the Cossacks lost their loyal objects, so after the German invasion, Ukraine set up a servant army with a total strength of 10.

The Russian army fighting in France is also a Ukrainian slave army.

Interestingly, the Russian Second and Third Fronts on the other side of the river are also dominated by Ukrainians, so the Cossack nation is really sad.

"This is not good, Marshal Malinov still hopes that we will launch a supporting attack on Pest after the battle of Buda--" Black worried about causing dissatisfaction among the friendly forces.

"Do you want to help the Russians attract firepower?" Chen Cang is not worried, Malinov should be worried.

The patience of the bearded man is limited. The commanders of the group army have been removed and replaced several times. Maybe it will be the turn of the commander of the front army at some point.

Russia has nothing but a lot of people and no fear of sacrifice.

The order was broken down layer by layer. When it came to the front line, the 41st Commando was less than one kilometer away from the Victory Square in the center of Buda.

The attack on the southern African side does not engage in tank battles, but breaks down the troops into commandos of varying numbers and launches an infiltration attack on the urban area of ​​Buda.

The terrain of the city is complex, and tanks driving on narrow streets are like live targets, which is not conducive to tank combat, so light infantry is popular, and small-scale commandos are more effective than armored forces.

The key is advanced equipment, which is more suitable for urban combat.

Now in southern Africa, including the servants, they have fully equipped with automatic and semi-automatic weapons that are more suitable for urban warfare. They use assault rifles with 30 rounds of magazines, combined with semi-automatic Nyasaland rifles, which can be used at medium and short distances. Ensure the stability of firepower, supplemented by pistols and shotguns that are more suitable for indoor combat, even if you fight from house to house.

In fact, for indoor combat, the grenade is the big killer, especially the shock grenade that emphasizes the soft killing effect, which is most likely to avoid accidental injury and becomes the favorite of the soldiers.

The commandos of the 41st commando have replaced all the powerful defensive grenades with more effective shock bombs, and are preparing to launch an attack on Victory Square.

"What are you doing? Stop attacking again. Is it so difficult to get a medal!" Amri from Najd felt unwilling. From the window next to him, he could already see the clock tower next to Victory Square.

The Ministry of National Defense of Southern Africa is very generous. For the Southern African Expeditionary Force who participated in the war, it is easy to get a medal, even if their ankle is sprained, there is a corresponding medal.

The Ministry of National Defense of Southern Africa is also very stingy. For the officers and soldiers of the Union forces, it is not possible to get the medal issued by the Ministry of National Defense of Southern Africa unless they have been on the battlefield for many times.

This is already the third year that Amli has participated in the war. He has gone through more than ten battles, big and small, but Amli still has not received a medal.

"It's not easy to get a medal. Apply for southern African citizenship—" Louis from Tanganyika was half lying on an old sofa, carefully cleaning a ring that he didn't know where he got it.

With gemstones, it is also the emerald that Europeans love.

Hungary is also a veteran imperialist country. It was ruled by the Ottoman Empire and Austria for a long time, and it regained its independence after World War I.

In 1941, Hungary joined the Axis Powers. It was not until 1944 that the German army entered Hungary. Before there was an organized robbery of Hungary, the Battle of Budapest broke out.

Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the participating troops in the Budapest Battle reaped a lot. Starting from November, as many as one million packages were sent from Budapest to Southern Africa every month.

"I applied three times, and all of them were rejected—" Amri was sad. Southern Africa's naturalization review is too strict.

It's good to be able to apply. Klein, who was resting under another window, didn't even have the qualifications to apply.

Klein, a Bulgarian, was separated from the unit during the fighting and was a non-staff member of the 41st Commando.

Compared with the southern African expeditionary force, the equipment of the Bulgarian army is inferior, at least there is no such thing as shock bombs.

The combat effectiveness of the Bulgarian army is not very good. They are accustomed to one-on-one combat and are not good at adjusting according to the specific situation of the enemy. Therefore, in the battle to attack Buda, the Bulgarian army suffered heavy casualties, and the basic establishment of many troops was broken up. After the battle is over, the Bulgarian army must make a good summary.

"Shall we retreat to the rear to rest?" What Klein wants most now is to take a hot bath and then have a good sleep.

In fact, the battle here in Buda was not very intense. Sometimes there was no gunfire for more than ten, twenty or ten minutes. There was no one on the street, and there were only snowflakes in the sky. Occasionally, there would be the sound of rumbling guns from the other side of the river.

However, if you are careless and expose your body to the window, you may be sniped by German snipers.

Now the Germans have also changed their tactics. Instead of fighting recklessly with the Southern African Expeditionary Force, they are fighting guerrilla warfare in the cities. Many German veterans don’t even have scopes on their rifles, but they shoot very accurately. Within one or two hundred meters, almost Where to hit.

"What are you thinking? Even if we stop attacking, we have to stand still until someone comes to replace us—" Amri also sat down, took out all the shock bombs, put them in the most convenient position, and lined them up under the window. a row.

"So when will someone replace us?" Klein still didn't understand the meaning of "replace".

"Hey, if you're in a hurry, you can go to sleep first." Louis put the cleaned ring on his hand, looked left and right, satisfied.

Amri pouted.

This is obviously a women's ring, and it looks really weird when worn on the hand of a man like you.

The key point is that Louis wears several rings on his hands, including three on his left hand, which makes him look like a nouveau riche, which directly lowers Amli's perception of the overall quality of southern Africans.

At this time, there was a sudden movement on the street. Amri opened the curtains a crack to observe, and found that several soldiers from the Southern African Expeditionary Force ran across the street.

Louis cast a questioning look.

"One of my own—" Amri visibly relaxed.

Louis did not relax, picked up his automatic rifle, and pointed the muzzle at the door.

The wooden stairs are very noisy when going up and down the stairs. When people arrive at the door, they don't knock on the door, so they give the signal first.

"Horns!"

"Sheep's head—"

Louis also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the password is correct.

There were several troops participating in the attack on Buda, and they came from many different regions. It is impossible for tens of thousands of people to know all of them. Password is the most effective way of confirmation.

The door was gently pushed open, Louis looked at the familiar black eyes and yellow skin, and completely relaxed.

The password may be spread, but black eyes and yellow skin cannot be faked.

The person came with a slightly anxious expression: "Is there a medical kit, someone on my side is injured."

Chinese!

Then it can't be faked.

"Yes, is it serious?" Louis offered to let the sofa out.

"It's okay, we can handle it ourselves—" Sergeant Chen put his gun on his shoulder, turned around and helped the other two soldiers help a wounded soldier in. to the rear for further treatment.

"How is the situation here?" Chen He took the initiative to communicate with Louis.

"It's okay, we're waiting for supplies, and we're almost out of bullets—" Louis took out a cigarette, and Chen He waved his hand to refuse.

On the battlefield, whether you can smoke or not, whether it is smoke or fire, it is easy to expose.

"We don't have much left. Is there anything to eat?" Chen He was hungry. The automatic rifle was easy to use, but the bullets were consumed too fast to keep up.

Think about it, in order to reduce the logistical burden, the United Kingdom even installed a clip blocker on Lee Enfield.

If the automatic rifle fires continuously, 30 rounds of ammunition will be fired in three seconds once the trigger is pulled. Even if it is used sparingly, a base can only last for a small-scale battle.

In the era of single-shot rifles, a base of ammunition is 120 rounds.

A semi-automatic rifle is 200.

Now Chen He and Louis, automatic riflemen, have a base ammunition of 300 rounds.

However, in real combat, each automatic rifleman will carry more than one base ammunition, and there is no upper limit. Basically, he can carry as much as he can without affecting his actions.

"Only biscuits and ham—" There was still some food on Louis' side, and Chen He thanked him for taking it.

"How long has it been since you've received supplies, man?" Amri finally got a chance to interject.

"From last night to now—" Chen He gobbled it up, Louis handed over the kettle, Chen He opened it and smelled it, thanking you for your kindness.

Louis' jug was filled with wine.

Amri handed over his water bottle, which was finally water this time.

Amri is a believer and does not drink alcohol.

"Old Shen's injury is a bit serious, and he has to be sent to the field hospital as soon as possible—" The bloody Chinese soldier who had just finished bandaging sat down beside Klein, his expression and spirit exhausted.

"Take a break first, and then start again." Chen He walked to Lao Shen's side. Lao Shen fell into a coma and did not respond, but fortunately he was breathing.

In the battlefield, rest time is a luxury. Chen and He didn't finish eating a box of biscuits. Suddenly, there was heavy gunfire not far away, and the Germans counterattacked.

Not the Germans, but the Ukrainian servant army.
