Predatory map of ominous birds

On May [-], the Soviet Red Army launched an attack on Kharkov.

Favnir's No. 223 Tiger was still on the front line to resist the Soviet attack at first. "2 o'clock direction, t34, distance 800, armor-piercing projectiles!" Now he is sitting in his captain's seat and giving orders calmly: advance, shoot, retreat, shoot... a completely successful person His calm and breezy appearance, without any sense of urgency - this is fake!In fact, he was sweating and shouting hoarsely ordering the crew to fight.The Russian tanks, as always, rushed over like a tide, and the German defense line was full of holes and struggling to support it.

On the night of the 12th, the order was issued: Fafnir's No. 223 and other tigers retreated and were transferred to the southern line to gather and stand by.

The Soviet army advanced quickly after the Germans transferred the armored troops. It took only a week to advance to Zaporozhye and captured the city after two days of fierce fighting.

On May 22, the Russians were still advancing. Their morale was high but their personnel were exhausted. The loss of tanks and self-propelled artillery along the way was serious. Due to the capture of the front-line headquarters in front of the German Army Group South, the Red Army commanders and fighters at all levels were very optimistic. The Dnieper can be reached soon.But at this time, the armored spearheads of the German army were about to launch a pincer attack on the exposed and vulnerable flanks of the Red Army...

Fafnir's No. 223 Tiger was quietly waiting for an assault order in the south. Next to him was Eckert. The assault group where Fnir was.The old colleagues are naturally very happy to meet each other, and I am glad that my family has not died on the battlefield... The short No. [-] will follow the tiger to make an assault, providing the tiger with long-distance support firepower.

In the early hours of the 23rd, the German counter-assault began.Without any firepower preparation in advance, the Tiger tank took the lead, followed by the Panthers, Panther IV tanks and assault guns, which caught the Soviet Red Army by surprise.The attack was very smooth. The first line of attack was not the second company of the 503rd Battalion where Fafnir belonged, but the Tiger tank unit of the Waffen-SS. As always, Eckert despised these murderers, but because of the military He still provided them with fire support.Fafnir's No. 223 is not on the first line, he stays in the second line, ready to launch a wave assault at any time.

On the 23rd, the absolute superiority in the quality of German tanks coupled with proper tactics enabled the German army to achieve a one-sided victory.Their powerful armored wedges quickly opened a gap of more than 6 kilometers in the position of the Red Army's 30th Army. The high speed advanced more than 4 kilometers to the south.On May 100, the other two armies of the German 24th Panzer Army, the 4th and 2th Panzer Corps, also launched an offensive.This German army soon joined the SS Panzer Army in the Pavlograd area and cut off the communication line of the 48th Army of the Red Army.Immediately afterwards, the German 57th Panzer Corps, which had 6 armored and armored infantry divisions, delivered a fatal blow to the Red Army Popov Group, which had run out of fuel.

But later on the 24th, when Fafnir's No. 223 Tiger was replenishing ammunition and fuel, Eckert, who had advanced first, was lifted from the front: he was hit in the chest by a Russian sniper—he When the outcropping commanded the vehicle to drive in, he was hit in the lung by a hidden Soviet sniper, and the Soviet soldier was immediately killed by artillery.Eckert was seriously injured and was taken to a field hospital in the rear.Fafnir had no time to visit his colleagues, and his order to sortie No. 223 had already been issued.

"This world is really a harsh documentary world... It's a pity that the other worlds outside are too dangerous-who dares to go to the world of Doraemon? Even Hongjun will be played to death... Otherwise, it would be too easy to save this group of reasonable guys. Alas, everyone lives in peace." Fafnir thought while directing the drive.

"Stop! 4 o'clock direction! There are so few Russian tanks?! They have finally run out of character! Comrade gunner, fire at will..." Fafnir said.

Due to the pressure of logistics, the tanks of the Soviet Red Army collapsed a lot, and a large number of tanks were unable to fight due to lack of fuel and ammunition.However, the Red Army soldiers still fought bravely - they concentrated the ammunition in the tanks in the best condition, even if they couldn't start, they could be used as fixed firepower points, at least the turret could be fired by hand... But everything was useless, tigers and leopards The No. [-] tanks ignored the firepower of the Soviet army at a long distance, and slowly and precisely aimed at sending Russian tanks that served as fixed firepower points into the sky.

"There's no need to get any closer, just shoot these fixed targets here." Fafnir gave the order boredly, and at the same time shot and killed the Soviet soldiers trying to fight with a machine gun.

After a fierce battle, the Germans declared that in the counterattack against the Southwest Front Army of the Red Army, the German army defeated the 6 armies and 1 infantry divisions composed of the 8th Army, the 10st Guards Army and the Popov Army. And 5 special brigades, it is said that 2 Soviet troops were killed.But on the other hand, since the attacking German troops did not constitute an absolute advantage, they could not form a tight encirclement. In addition to the freezing weather, most of the German troops' actions were limited to the villages, so they only captured About 3 Red Army troops.

After suffering such heavy losses, the Southwest Front Army of the Red Army had to quickly retreat from February 3 under the strong pressure of the German troops rushing from three directions.By June 2, they had retreated across the North Donets River, where the thin ice made it easier for the Red Army to pass.But in this way, the Voronezh Front of the Red Army fighting in the Kharkov area was threatened by the flanks of the German armored forces.

Neither the Red Army Supreme Command in Moscow nor the Voronezh Front, which was operating on the flank of the Southwest Front, paid enough attention to the sudden German attack on the Southwest Front.They still stubbornly believed that the German counterattack was merely to cover their retreat from the Dnieper.Therefore, during this period, the Voronezh Front was still desperately advancing westward.

直到西南方面军被德国人赶过了北顿涅茨河之后，沃罗涅日方面军司令员戈利科夫上将才发现自己处境十分险恶：此时，刚刚打垮了西南方面军的德军第4装甲集团军正在北上，准备和德军“肯普夫”战役集群一道打击自己的部队。这样一来，沃罗涅日方面军左翼的3个集团军（第3坦克集团军，第40、69集团军）就将遭到14个精锐德国师（包括4个装甲师、3个党卫队装甲步兵师、1个摩托化步兵师、3个步兵师）的攻击。而红军在这个方向能够使用的坦克大约只有70辆，德军则不少于350辆。

Faced with such a bad situation, Admiral Golikov hastily ordered the Voronezh Front to stop all offensives on June 200 and turn the entire front into defense.The Red Army general also urgently asked his superiors to provide supplements to his troops that were seriously depleted of soldiers and supplies, but since the nearest supply base was [-] kilometers away, reinforcements were completely impossible.

Fafnir ran into two old friends again, Dick "Joker" Carl and Junker, who had joined him after completing the Northern Assault.Karl proudly showed off the circle of death he had just brushed up—he destroyed another 14 tanks, raising his record to 60, and it seemed likely that he would get the Knight's Cross.But now, Karl can only look at Fafnir's Knight's Cross and drool... Junker has also changed his shotgun now. He is now the commander of the Panther D-type tank and has achieved fifteen victories for himself. Drooling at the Knights Cross like Karl, but Juncker has to fight for the Iron Cross first....
