Chapter 1131 Infantry Division Surrounds Mechanized Regiment
The army was still moving forward, and the infantry walking in front saw something from afar.
"Captain, there are signs of fire fighting in front of you." Soon, the news came over.
Alexander stood in his command car, and he looked ahead with a telescope. Soon, he saw the burning tank still emitting blue smoke. From the outline, it can be seen that it was a tank of his own Soviet, and some of them were turned on the turrets and there were red stars!
Here, a tank battle just happened, and his tank troops were killed! Suddenly, Alexander was shocked: "Hurry, stop moving forward!"
At this time, they were two or three kilometers away from the location where the Soviet tank troops were destroyed, so they stopped moving forward. It was so terrible. The dozens of tanks were burning, which shows that there were at least regiment-level German armored troops nearby!
When armored troops fight infantry, it is as easy as cutting melons and eating beans. If their mechanized regiment really hits, it will be a big trouble!
Stop moving forward!
All the soldiers stopped, and they also saw the burning tanks in the distance. At this time, they were also shocked. Where were the Germans? Why didn't they see the German tanks?
"Shit!" At this moment, a chainsaw sound suddenly sounded around. With this terrifying sound, countless bullets poured towards them, and they had entered the encirclement of the 42nd German Army!
Countless Soviet soldiers on the periphery fell down screaming and looked around with horrified eyes, and there was a dense rain of bullets everywhere!
"Quick, retreat, retreat immediately!" Alexander shouted loudly. His side fell into the German encirclement. Now, he wanted to jump out of the encirclement. It is undoubtedly the safest to walk the path he had just walked.
Countless horses were neighing. These horses were not war horses at all. Most of them were the most ordinary horses used to transport supplies from camels. When they heard the gunshots, the horses were also surprised.
A horse actually headed towards the machine gun. Behind it was a carriage, which was covered with rifles and machine gun bullets. At this time, the slow hand on the carriage was very anxious and almost stood up to pull the reins.
It was useless, the horse was still running, and then the rain of bullets on the opposite side covered the horse.
The horse made a tragic neigh, and it was hit by a dozen bullets. Its front legs were kneeling on the ground, and the carriage behind it was still rushing up, breaking its ribs.
The slow hand on the carriage was also dropped from the carriage, and then the most terrifying sound was heard.
"Boom!" The ammunition on the carriage was blown up. In the huge explosion, a fireball appeared in everyone's sight. The black mushroom clouds rose slowly, and the horses and sluggish hands were all blown into meat dumps at this moment.
More than a dozen field artillery pieces of the regiment were deployed at the end and were pulled by horses. When gunfire sounds came from all sides, the artillery soldiers were also very anxious. They cut off the ropes of the field artillery and then turned on the horse's back.
Run! At least the way they came from just now has not been blocked. Now, whoever runs faster can leave.
As for the role of their artillery, they didn't have that time. When they put the cannons in place, the other party's shells would have flew over long ago.
The reason why they ran away immediately was because in their eyes, they thought that the German armored troops were right in front of them! Otherwise, how were those tanks destroyed?
If they could be more careful, they could hear gunfire all around, with at most a few small caliber infantry cannons, but there was no sound of high-pressure tank cannon shooting.
Anyway, the regiment commander has ordered a retreat, and if they carry cannons, they will definitely not be able to escape.
However, even though they didn't carry the cannon, they couldn't escape.
When they rode backwards, they also saw a scene that made them extremely worried.
On both sides of the rear, two mechanized troops, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, appeared, maneuvering quickly towards their rear, intending to block the hole.
Most of the German motorized infantry divisions are ten-ton off-road trucks, and most of the infantry marching methods are used in this way, but this does not prevent them from having some small amounts of advanced equipment.
For example, the hunter tank destroyer, such as a wheeled infantry fighting vehicle battalion.
The number is not very large, but at this time, it will definitely play its greatest role.
The infantry fighting vehicles on both sides quickly moved closer to the middle. Their speed was much faster than the horses. In this way, the troops who were planning to leave the encirclement at the end watched helplessly as the other party completed the encirclement!
The door of the infantry fighting vehicle opened, and a soldier with a 6.8mm submachine gun came out one after another, using the infantry fighting vehicle as a cover to form a temporary position.
The encirclement has been encircled!
"Bang, bang!" On the infantry fighting chariot, the 40mm Bofos chariot cannon was constantly spitting out flames. The first target they wanted to kill was those abandoned field cannons.
The main force of the 42nd Army, the 87th Infantry Division, surrounded a mechanized infantry regiment of the Soviet Union near Grodno! This surrounded force only took a short time to be eaten!
In the entire Soviet land, such scenes were constantly being staged. Although they were always studying the German blitzkrieg tactics, when they really started war with the Germans, the Soviets were still beaten to the point of being unable to touch the north.
As both sides continued to mobilize troops to Grodno, the battle here became more and more intense.
At this time, in another direction, the Southern Legion is about to launch a large-scale tank battle.
The Stree River, a natural chasm that is not a natural chasm, temporarily blocked the Vikings' attack, and time passed by little by little.
Compared with Pavlov's army in the Western Special Military Region, which was like a flies, the command of the Soviet Southwest Front was more thoughtful. As the Germans were blocked in the Stree River, a large number of troops in the rear, including the main tank troops, were advancing towards the Dubno-Lutsk-Rovno region.
Delaying time is beneficial to the Southwest Front. As their troops advance, block and then counterattack the German tactics are slowly unfolding!
And the blocked Germans certainly would not watch the situation deteriorate.
The sky slowly darkened, and gunfire came from time to time on the other side of the bridge. The Soviets on the opposite side were blocking the German engineers from repairing the bridge. They used machine guns to shoot as long as they approached. In order to protect the remaining part of the bridge, the German troops did not dare to use artillery fire to fight back, so they fell into a stalemate.
