Steel Soviet Union

"Go up on both sides, outflank the Germans' retreat and intercept them! Since this battle is going to be fought, we must kill all the Germans at once. Even if the final actual result is not achieved, we must pursue this goal and do our best. Able to achieve preset tactical objectives.”

"Kurbalov, you lead one regiment up the left wing, Lavry, you lead three regiments up the right wing. The infantry each takes a battalion from Varosha and operates according to the previous cooperation plan. I am here The second regiment on the side is responsible for frontal combat, leaving an ordinary infantry battalion and a combat engineer battalion for me. "

"After the bombardment is over, I will start the attack immediately. The Germans will inevitably be unable to retreat. At that time, you two will start taking action together, and the three regiments will attack the Germans from three sides. Don't worry about insufficient troops, Wattu Additional support troops sent by Commander Beijing will arrive soon, and the specific combat plan may change at any time. "

"You two must be prepared to switch from offense to defense at any time. The effective force and pressure to kill the Germans is small, and cutting off the Germans' retreat is the top priority! No matter what, we must not let the organized Germans escape. I will be responsible for the main battle on the front. You two also know the battle plan. You can use it according to the actual situation without being too rigid. Do you have any questions? "

Malashenko believes in the commanding abilities of his two good brothers. Whether it is Kulbalov or Lavrinenko, they are at the level of combat heroes in other tank units. They are truly from the grassroots to the true level. He was trained with real swords and guns, and both his commanding attainments and basic skills are extremely solid and reliable.

He only needs to lay out a basic battle plan, and Kulbalov and Lavrinenko can complete the rest well.

This has been the case in past battles, and Malashenko has reason to believe that it will still be the case in today's battle.

This is the most real emotion and trust between comrades, comrades, and brothers. Malashenko firmly believes that the two people in front of him are worthy of his trust and responsibility.

Malashenko's combat plan is not without its boldness. It not only requires the tacit cooperation of three troops operating in different directions, but also requires the dispersion of forces to face a massive enemy force that far outstrips his own.

The Germans were beaten until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they were extremely miserable. However, no matter how you put it, the ones who were locked up in the encirclement and beaten violently were at least three fully-organized German armored divisions, which was only a lot more in terms of total strength. This is a quite challenging test for the three brothers, including Malashenko.

"I knew that you must have planned to do this. From the beginning, you never thought of letting these Germans go. But I like it. This kind of battle is the tough battle that our leader should fight.

Although he knew that the task was difficult, he was still happy to hear the battle. After all, it was not easy for Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division to find such a challenging opponent. Lavrinenko's strategy was so simple. There is excitement for a reason.

"Don't worry, leave it to the two of us. We will ensure that the Germans' retreat is nailed down and no one will be let through! But you also need to speed up. We can hold on for a while, but we won't be able to hold on for long."

"The Germans haven't noticed our combat intentions yet, but once they come to their senses, they will definitely try to break out like crazy. The battle at Cherkasy just passed not long ago, and that battle was enough to make They have learned a lesson, we cannot expect the same tactical surprise attack to be successful a second time.”

Lavrinenko's reminder makes sense. In fact, Malashenko doesn't think the Germans will be stupid and wait for his troops to surround him. Not long after the classic steel encirclement battle in Cherkasy passed, Malashenko also believed that the Germans would definitely learn lessons from it.

Therefore, the main frontal attack battle that he is responsible for must break through powerfully and quickly. Only in this way can he maximize the advantage as much as possible before the Germans can react.

The more advantages they have, the less pressure they will have on Kulbalov and Lavrinenko. There is no way for the Germans to invest heavily in three directions and fight on three fronts at the same time. The Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division, which is large, well-equipped, and has elite personnel, is not good at any of its tank regiments, and it is enough for the Germans to do well. It’s time to drink a pot.

"Don't worry, I will do everything right. Maintain radio contact and communicate and exchange battlefield information in a timely manner. The artillery position can cover most of our current combat area. Once the situation is critical, we will call for artillery support. That group of Il 2 Don’t let them sit idle. After refueling and reloading, I will call them back to continue serving the Germans.”

"We do not have an advantage in terms of military strength in this battle, but we are definitely ahead in terms of technology and equipment. If we make good use of this advantage, we can win this tough battle!"

"Once successful, this will be an unprecedented victory. We are creating miracles! History will record our names and the legend of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division in the annals of history. Children a hundred years from now will recite our anti-French names in class. The glorious deeds of the Heath hero!"

The three-person meeting gradually turned into a pre-war speech standing on the spot. Malashenko, who was in high spirits, stood on the spot. Behind him was his IS4 command heavy tank with turret number 177. All around him were people who looked at him with firm eyes. Looking at the soldiers, commanders, and political workers who looked at Comrade Division Commander, their resolute eyes shone with faith and the light of victory.

"For Motherland, Ulla! For Stalin, Ulla!! For the cause of communism that we defend with our lives and the anti-fascist struggle of all mankind, comrades, Ulla!!!"

Ula!

Ula! !

Ula! ! !

The AK held tightly in the hand pointed to the sky and raised above the head, while the Bobosha and SVT-40 held in one hand were even raising their arms and shouting.

The high morale and passionate shouts quickly swept through the entire temporary assembly point like a spark of fire starting a prairie fire. The resolute eyes of each pair were filled with a deep belief in the greatest cause and belief in human history so far.

The Bolsheviks will not fall here, nor will the glorious cause of liberating all mankind decline. The communist fighters will surely win the final victory.

"United as one, we are united! The 1st Stalin Guards Tank Division attacks the enemy!!!"

The German troops, bathed in the devastating barrage of artillery fire and suffering, still didn't know the terrifying abyss they were slipping into at this moment.

What awaits them ahead will be a textbook-style classic battle of annihilation that is well-known in the history of modern human warfare and has been recorded in the annals of history.

Between the vast land and the bombardment, who will win?

The real answer has actually been determined at this moment.
