: 0.063s Scan: 1.746sTwo main armored armies are fighting against an ordinary infantry army of the Soviet army that is not fully staffed. This kind of war is completely bullying.
Of course, there is no surprise in the result. After the Soviet army was covered and hit by the German artillery fire, the entire army was in chaos from top to bottom.
They never thought that they would be attacked halfway, and there were so many enemies attacking them.
The intelligence shows that the German army has only one armored division?
However, the German troops that appeared on the battlefield at this time are conservatively estimated to have exceeded 200,000 people!
This is not an armored division, but six or seven armored divisions!
In the wild, when encountering an armored force with superior forces, ordinary infantry troops will find it embarrassing.
They can’t fight or run, and there are only two choices before them.
Either lay down your weapons~ and raise your hands to surrender.
Or take up your weapons and resist, and be killed by the enemy-!
There is no third possibility!
This Soviet army was quite divided. When they saw the German army’s steel torrent rushing towards them, some of them wanted to fight back, while others wanted to kneel down and surrender.
As a result, half of the Soviet army on the battlefield resisted, and the other half chose to surrender.
Guderian was delighted when he saw this!
“My goodness, are these Soviet soldiers suffering from schizophrenia?”
It was the first time he saw such a situation in an army!
But it was also good. When the resisting Soviet soldiers saw their companions kneeling down to beg for surrender, their fighting will would be greatly affected unconsciously.
In this case, they didn’t have much combat effectiveness left. If affected by this, their combat effectiveness would be even worse!
As a result, under the pincer attack of the German army, the remaining Soviet troops didn’t even hold on for an hour before they were completely wiped out! The battle took less than two hours from the start to the end.
Half an hour was spent on shelling, one hour on fighting, and the remaining half hour was spent on The time was spent cleaning up the battlefield and collecting prisoners.
The Soviet resistance did not cause much trouble to the German army, but the scattered defeated soldiers ran everywhere, making it easy for the German army to catch them.
Although most of the Soviet soldiers were caught within half an hour, there were still a large number of them that slipped through the net. As a result, in order to catch these guys, the German army spent seven or eight days after the war to pull them out from every corner.
This really confirms what Chu Yunfei said: Even if there are 50,000 pigs, it will take three days to catch them all! 攵.That’s right, the scattered Soviet army actually wasted the German army’s energy more than the well-organized Soviet army.コ.…….”General, something terrible has happened. The army we sent to Lida City was ambushed by the German army, and Commander Zhenyi’s troops were completely wiped out!”
“What? How is it possible?”
When the news of the battle situation on the front line came back from the Soviet headquarters, there was a commotion in the headquarters.
When Budyonny got the report, he couldn’t believe it was true!
An army of 60,000 or 70,000 people just disappeared?
How long has it been since they were sent out? How could they just disappear?
If Budyonny was not worried about the appearance of an armored division in Lida City before, then the news that the army he sent to Lida City to expel the German army was completely annihilated by the German army was enough to make him sit still!
The German army was able to eat up one of his armies in such a short time, which meant that there was a large-scale German army behind him.
He didn’t know how many people there were in this German army, let alone where they were hiding now.
And this state of not knowing anything made him feel even more uneasy!
How could he fight this battle when he didn’t even know the number and location of the enemy?
“General, do we still need to move forward?”
A staff officer asked cautiously.
His words reminded Budyonny that their mission this time was to capture the city of Mins!
If they fail to take it, then they will all be trapped here.
So, no matter how many German troops are behind him, let Timoshenko deal with those problems!
His mission is to capture the city of Mins and tear open the German defense line so that his large troops can evacuate safely.
Thinking of this, Budyonny made up his mind and said sternly:”Send a telegram about the battle just now to General Timoshenko in the rear, and convey my order. The army will continue to advance and must arrive in the city of Mins before noon tomorrow!”
……
Guderian thought that he had set an ambush for the Soviet army, which would make the Soviet army afraid to act rashly and become hesitant and afraid to move forward.
As a result, he found that he had underestimated the Soviet army’s determination.
Even though he knew that there was a threatening German army hiding behind him, the Soviet commander still ignored it and madly advanced towards Mins.
Looking at the other side, they will not give up until they take Mins!
In this case, his plan must be adjusted accordingly!
“Send a telegram to General Bock in Mins, reminding him to be on guard against the Soviet attack. Also tell him that I will send the Third Army back to support them. The remaining two armored armies are not good at positional warfare. I will lead them to fight on the periphery and threaten the Soviet flanks, so that they cannot concentrate all their efforts on attacking Mins!”………，…….
The key to this battle is still Mins, which must not be lost at any cost.
So Guderian could not stay in Lida any longer. If his troops continued to stay behind the Soviet army, it would indeed cause great trouble for the Soviet army.
However, these troubles were not fatal, but once the Soviet army took Mins, it would be fatal to them.
Therefore, he had to obey the overall strategy of the German army and focus on defending Mins.
……
In the city of Mins, after receiving Guderian’s telegram, Bock was nervous and expectant!
What was nervous was that the Soviet army was coming, and its strength was nearly three times that of his own.
In this case, the defenders are bound to be under great pressure.
What he was expecting was that this was the first time he had commanded the army to conduct large-scale operations since World War I.
Especially since the opponent still had an advantage in military strength, the total strength of both sides added up to nearly two million!
A battle of this scale, if placed in World War I, would already be at the level of the Battle of Verdun and the Battle of the Somme!
After this battle, the Soviet Union and Germany may not have a decisive battle of this scale again.
So he was looking forward to it very much! _Faloo reminds you: Three things to do when reading – ∪Collect, recommend, and share!
