Chapter 1430 Continue the pursuit

The final charge was successful without encountering any obstacles. The last handful of German troops blocking Lavrinenko showed no decent resistance at all.

It is not true to say that these German troops have no combat effectiveness at all. After all, whether it is attacking Hill 239 or another breakout battle last night, the performance of the German troops is not bad. Under the corresponding situation, it is even enough to be called good.

The real problem for the German army at this moment is that morale is completely lost and completely collapsed. The retreat and escape, which is starving and cold, is enough to make people despair, and it seems that the road ahead seems to be endless. Suddenly being pushed to the ground and being beaten in an open-ground manner, both physically and mentally unable to bear it, is the best way to describe the situation at this moment.

A large group of medium-sized tanks, including T3485 and T43, rushed forward in a mighty manner, followed by a large number of Red Army soldiers who had just switched from tank knight mode to infantry mode.

Combat engineer battalions only follow heavy tank units, and the principle of participating in the toughest and most difficult battles has not changed.

So these Red Army soldiers who jumped out of the medium tanks were all light infantry. Although they did not have bulletproof armor or powerful equipment like AK and Panzerfaust, they had Bobosha, SVT40 and Dapanji light machine guns in their hands. , still able to beat these defeated soldiers to the ground with their German sticks.

Except for a very small number of German troops who drove away in racing cars, the remaining German troops after being attacked by air raids no longer had the energy to put up a stubborn resistance.

Many German soldiers who were stunned like walking zombies looked at the enemy rushing towards them. They responded with expressions of despair, dropped their weapons and gave up resistance. What's more, they didn't even bother to pick up the weapons that fell on the ground. They performed a French military salute on the spot and knelt down on the ground with their hands raised in the air, as if they were ready to be slaughtered.

There are not no Germans who dare to resist, and overall they even account for a relatively large majority.

But these remaining German troops, who only had light weapons in their hands, were no match for the Red Army soldiers with high morale and high combat effectiveness, let alone the help of tanks and aircraft and the absolute heavy firepower.

Therefore, this battle that was doomed from the beginning did not last long. The remaining German troops who resisted were quickly wiped out by the swarming Red Army soldiers.

Now, there are only three types of German troops left on the battlefield where the smoke has not yet cleared: those who are standing and surrendering, those who are lying dead, and those who are lying on the ground half-dead and about to belch.

"Please, don't kill me! I surrender, can't I surrender!? I don't want to be a soldier. Those bastards drafted me away from my mother. I have no choice, otherwise they will come to my house to arrest me. Oh my! Please, I really haven’t done anything bad, don’t kill me, don’t kill me!”

Looking at the young German soldier who was kneeling on the ground not far away and begging, Iushkin, who had not seen much of this situation, could not help but shake his head in shock.

"What do these German guys think they are doing in the Soviet Union? Are they here to parade in the streets and play games? Why weren't they so scared when they invaded?"

Iushkin never had a good attitude towards his enemies. He was the kind of person who hated his enemies from the bottom of his heart and wished he could cut the gangsters who came to burn, kill and plunder into pieces in order to relieve his hatred. And Iushkin never concealed his contempt and hatred for the Germans. He dared to say so even in front of Malashenko.

Compared to the irritable Iushkin, Artyom, who also just got out of the car, seemed much gentler and more rational.

"Hey, I mean bro. Look at that German guy, he's only twenty years old or less at most, and when I was his age all I could think about was the young and pretty Lisa next door. Why don't you assume what he said? Is it true? What if he really didn’t join the army voluntarily?”

"Didn't Comrade Division Commander say that the Germans have already depleted their troops? Maybe they are just arresting young people to go to the battlefield."

Glancing at the young German soldier who was hugging the calf of the Red Army soldier next to him with snot and tears while continuing to cry out for mercy, Iushkin, whose face remained calm and his heart did not beat, did not express Artyom's words this time. That's not right.

"You are always so wishful thinking."

"Oh, this is not wishful thinking, my dear Comrade Iushkin, this is a reasonable analysis of the situation at hand. If you consider things from different angles, you will get completely different results and possibilities. Isn't this Comrade Political Commissar taught us that?”

""

Artyom is a person who is good at learning and very eager to improve himself. Artyom, who is no longer a worker but an upright soldier, hopes that he can go further and stand taller in his career as a professional soldier. higher. It would be great if he could be a battalion commander or something like that. Not as majestic and domineering as the division commander, but at least not bad.

So when Artyom, who was good at remembering the speeches of the political commissar and division commander, mentioned these words, Iushkin, who pouted, was unable to refute anything in the end, and just turned around to face Artyom behind him. Jom snapped his fingers.

"It's time to get to work. Come load the car with shells. I just used two rounds."

"Two rounds, you still want to pretend now?"

"Of course, what if these two shots can determine the outcome?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Since Comrade Commander is not here now, I can only listen to you."

Iushkin, who no longer paid attention to the German prisoners of war, began to lead his brothers to do business, while our Comrade Lao Ma was discussing the situation of the war with the political commissar on the other side.

"One of the prisoners just captured was a Lieutenant Colonel of the National Defense Forces. After interrogating him, we learned that they were just the rear troops who were left behind. They were short of cars and fuel, and there were many wounded. They had no heavy weapons and all were lost, including tanks. There are only a few of the most basic No. 3 and No. 4 troops. The total strength is only one regiment. Their combat effectiveness is not very strong and they cannot move fast. "

Looking at the map of the war zone spread out in front of him in the bed of the truck and listening to what the political commissar told him, Malashenko, who could predict that this group of Germans had basically no fighting power and were almost free of charge, responded.

"What's the key? How far away are the Germans escaping in front?"

"According to him, it is less than three kilometers, but counting the battle just now and the time we have stopped to clean the battlefield and treat the wounded, it is estimated that it has been stretched to six or seven kilometers or even further. But no matter how you say it, it is not too far. As long as we are willing, we can set off again soon to catch up with the fleeing enemies. "
