Steel Soviet Union

Chapter 1683 Maximizing Casualties

The German troops defending the position surrendered about half an hour after the tanks of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division rushed into the position.

After all kinds of indiscriminate bombings, the German army, which was seriously short of anti-tank weapons, could not effectively cause damage to the thick-skinned Stalin heavy tanks. On the other hand, the Stalin heavy tanks parked on the position as fixed firepower points were going on a killing spree. Their main guns and coaxial machine guns were used simultaneously. The crazy firepower struck the German troops everywhere in the position and made them miserable.

The German soldiers did not think about destroying these annoying Stalin heavy tanks. Groups of German soldiers armed with iron fists, anti-tank grenades, and even explosive bags formed a team under the cover of their comrades holding submachine guns and rifles. One commando after another launched a charge, trying to use the communication trenches and bomb craters extending in all directions to approach the Soviet tanks and destroy them.

Every move and little thought of the German army could not escape the eyes of the Red Army soldiers. In fact, the grassroots infantry commanders responsible for leading the attack had long expected that the Germans would launch an assault focusing on their own tanks. This was The battlefield conditions that are taken into account in the planning are included in the tactical rehearsal simulation conducted in advance.

As for why it is expected, the reason is very simple.

If you were beaten so hard that you almost lost your position, when you launched a counterattack and tried to drive the enemy out of your position, what would be your first priority target to destroy?

An enemy machine gun team? Ordinary infantrymen armed with automatic weapons?

neither.

If these Soviet heavy tanks, which are like sharp knives, have penetrated deeply into the position and are still wedged in place, any organized large-scale counterattack by the German army will be empty talk. The slightest sign of a large-scale troop buildup will immediately lead to ruthless large-caliber main artillery bombardment and heavy machine gun fire. Even the arrival of the Aryan superhuman coalition cannot stop this battle, let alone mortal bodies.

The helpless German army could only use dispersed assault groups to try to destroy the troublesome Soviet heavy tanks. A pure infantry countercharge battle without the support of armored troops would be so difficult.

Those Red Army soldiers who had long expected that the enemy would be like this immediately launched defenses on the spot after noticing the opponent's latest movements, relying on the nearby bunker terrain, relying on the powerful direct fire support of their own heavy tanks, and relying on Start a battle with automatic fire output that is far stronger than your opponent's.

It didn't take more than two cigarettes to kill the German anti-tank team that tried to break out, leaving corpses strewn across the field and blood flowing like rivers.

Instead of eating the meat, they were hit with a bloody blow. The German army retreated in panic again. However, the German infantry who had just returned to the starting point were so embarrassed that they didn't even have time to take a breath. They clung to the Soviet infantry. However, they took advantage of the enemy's retreat and pressed forward. They really didn't leave any time for the German army to breathe, and pressed forward with a swift and fierce offensive.

The extremely exhausted German army had no choice but to continue to defend on the spot, using all available weapons at hand to engage in firefights with the enemy infantry. But the problem is that without half a cigarette, those Stalin heavy tanks that were originally left slightly behind will rumble and slowly move in front of them, waving their thick main guns towards them. The Germans opened fire fiercely.

The German army, whose scalp was numb after being beaten, could only continue to face the astonishing and still increasing number of casualties. If you don't want to lose this battle, it is necessary to organize another wave of anti-tank groups to deal with the Russian monster tanks, but this will return to the starting point over and over again.

As soon as the German anti-tank team approached, the Soviet infantry would immediately switch to a defensive posture and use maximum firepower to fire fiercely at the Germans. Not to mention beating people into pieces with this level of small arms firepower, if you move a little slower, it is possible for your arms and legs to be broken off on the spot by a swarm of bullets.

Don't think that only large-caliber weapons can cause limb-shattering effects. The same body part can be hit by multiple shots from small- and medium-caliber weapons. On the other hand, this can also explain from the side how terrifying the opponent's firepower the Germans are facing at this moment.

After several rounds of battles in which they were beaten horribly and could not gain the slightest advantage, the German defenders, who were already a little scared of being beaten, finally understood.

The troops we encountered today are different from any Soviet troops we have encountered in the past. Not only do they have extremely powerful firepower and advanced equipment configurations, but their tactics and combat experience are also completely different and unusual. The Soviet troops were even much higher than the German army's own elite troops.

Take this tactic of deliberately bleeding people, not seeking a quick victory but seeking to maximize enemy casualties. The German army, which had been beaten and forced, had never even heard of it in previous battles.

I have never known any group of idiots who can play infantry-tank coordination so well. It is as if the tank itself has a life and soul, and can communicate with the infantry at any time and coordinate tactics.

This disgusting bloodletting tactic based on strong and invincible strength, the German defenders on the position at this moment could not find any effective way to deal with it.

If you rush, you can only die.

Defend, you can't defend at all.

escape? Are you joking? Do you expect two legs to escape the steel tracks driven by iron pulleys? Even if the Russians deactivate their main guns and machine guns and just step on the accelerator, they can crush all of their own sides into pulp!

After thinking about it, the German commander, who was holding a telescope and felt that there was no hope, felt that the only feasible way in front of him was to surrender.

"Comrade Commander! The Germans have surrendered!!! Directly ahead! They raised the white flag!"

Malashenko, who was holding the commander's periscope, could hear Iushkin's excited voice clearly in his ears. Malashenko, who had a plain face and was already used to this, just smiled coldly.

"That's it for today, three defensive positions! Get ready to get out of the car and have dinner!"

There was no need for the comrade division commander to issue any unnecessary orders. The Red Army soldiers who watched the enemy surrender with a white flag naturally knew what to do.

"Be honest! You fascist lackey! Do you want to be shot?"

"Let's go! Don't dawdle, hurry up!"

"Get out of here! Be honest! Throw out all the weapons you have!"

Beside trenches, bomb craters, and traffic trenches

Red Army soldiers holding steel guns were everywhere, shouting at the German soldiers who had raised their hands to surrender.

Although the Germans who have raised their hands to surrender may not understand what these Russian words mean, they can always understand what the sullen expressions on their faces, mixed with anger and hatred, mean. Lifting up is better than anything else at a time like this.
