One hundred and seventy-five. Supply base
Zhukov made no mistake in his judgment. Even though the Skeleton Commando rushed out of Omiget's siege, he still did not escape.
In front, there was an obstacle that could not be overcome by the existing personnel of the Skeleton Commando: General Kashanov personally commanded the Russian position to defend.
And what's even more terrible is that General Gedel had already launched an attack within the agreed time, but he did not wait for the Skeleton Commando.
They have lost reinforcements!
At this time, the skeleton commandos who broke through Omiget were in a little dark mood. Not long ago, they had just lost a teammate.
They couldn't know Sami's life and death, maybe it would take until the war ended.
"We need to contact Guderian, we need his tank support." Wang Weiyi frowned and said, "Otherwise, we will never be able to go back there."
"Major, there are a small number of Russians in front of them."
"Major, the Russians of Omiget will soon catch up."
"Major, some discoveries." At this time, Guo Yunfeng, who was in charge of reconnaissance, hurried over: "On our left, some traces of Russian activities were found, and there were also a large number of ox carts, which seemed to be shipped."
"A lot of ox carts?" Wang Weiyi thought about it for a while, and then told several officers about the situation: "When we came, we might have omitted it. I have a feeling that it might be a Russian supply base."
Rommel nodded: "The cold weather that will soon arrive is a test for the German army. It is also a cruel test for the Russians. They must prepare a large amount of wintering supplies. Ernst. Come and see."
He took out the map: "The Russians are already here, Kasmidov, this is the most suitable place to be used as a supply base. What your Chinese friends have discovered is exactly in this direction. Ernst, if we can cause chaos among the Russians in the supply base, we might have a chance to get out, but we only have thirty-six people."
"Godrien, where is Guderian?" Wang Weiyi murmured.
The three tanks commanded by Guderian cannot break through the Russian troops' tightly defended positions, but they can be used to raid the Russian troops' supply base. But where is Guderian now?
"Major, look, tank, our tank!"
At this moment, Model pointed ahead and shouted loudly.
Three tanks appeared! The tank commanded by Guderian!
The team members couldn't help cheering. They all saw clearly. On the tank in front, there were Adolf Hitler and Mali who were in charge of contacting!
"Hey, Major, are we late?" Hitler and Mali jumped off the tank.
"No, it's just the time to eat." Wang Weiyi's heart was quickly relieved. With the support of these three tanks, everything was easy to do.
He saw Goodrian come out of the tank and shouted, "Major, you are late."
"We have had some small trouble, Heinz." Wang Weiyi waved at him: "Now I need your help, a Russian dance party invites us to attend."
"Is Kasmidov's dance?" Guderian asked inadvertently.
Wang Weiyi became curious: "How did you know?"
Guderian walked over and said, "You have to know. Waiting is a boring thing. I sent soldiers to reconnaissance the surrounding situation, ah. It was mainly because of the escape route of the tank once we were discovered by the enemy."
One sentence made everyone laugh, but Guderian said as if nothing had happened: "We did not discover the escape route, but we discovered some situations in Kasmidov. Every day some supplies were transported there, and every day some supplies were sent out. It was General Kashanov's supply base, and there was a whole regiment of Russian troops stationed."
Have Guderian actually reconnaissed all of Kasmidov's situation these days? While Wang Weiyi was very pleased, he was also worried.
The enemy can have a whole regiment, and it is too difficult to break through with thirty-six infantry and three tanks.
There is almost no task to complete.
"But there is another good news," Guderian said slowly: "Just yesterday, the Russians stationed in Kasmidov mutiny."
Wang Weiyi was stunned: "How did you know?"
"We attacked a Russian squad and caught a captain." Guderian shrugged: "At that time they were about to report to General Kashanov and request reinforcements."
Wang Weiyi was overjoyed, and Guderian waved to the back: "Hey, bring that captain here."
"I am the adjutant of Colonel Sergei stationed in Kasmidov. I was ordered to report the mutiny to General Kashanov." In front of Wang Weiyi, the Russian captain did not hide anything.
"Tell me, what's going on with a mutiny?"
"We haven't paid any salary for three months, and some officers and soldiers are very dissatisfied."
As soon as the captain said the words, everyone suddenly realized that this was one of the chronic diseases that the Russian army was difficult to solve.
There are too many problems in the Russian army. Russia began a general mobilization before the war. Before the war, the Russian army had increased from 1.2 million to 5.3 million. However, Russia's transportation was very backward and the assembly speed was scaryly slow. After the war broke out, only 650,000 people could immediately enter the Eastern Front, and most of the troops were still crowded on the road.
The Russian army has a huge number, but it is actually vulnerable. The Russian army's military thinking is backward. Many officers even regarded Suvorov's words "Bullets are cowards, and bayonets are heroes" as a classic. Russian officers can punish soldiers at will. The treatment of officers and soldiers is very different, and the relationship between officers and soldiers is very tense. Training is even better than nothing. The funds that were originally not much were exploited after layers of exploitation.
What's even more ridiculous is that many Russian soldiers often have not fired guns when they retire.
The problem of arrears of military pay is particularly prominent, because this problem is that the mutiny of the Russian army happens almost every day. This is an incredible thing in the German army, and it has become a common thing in the Russian army.
"There has been a mutiny, but it was suppressed by Colonel Sergei. Who would have thought that a new mutiny happened not long after the previous one." The Russian captain did not hide it at all and said it all: "Col. Sergei got information in advance. He disarmed the mutiny officers and soldiers and temporarily detained them. At present, the colonel can control no more than three companies."
"Are you sure?" Wang Weiyi asked hurriedly.
"Very sure." The Russian captain nodded: "The army stationed in Kasmidov is known as one regiment, but in fact there are only two battalions at most. You have to know, Mr. Officer, the smaller the number of people, the more money it has in Colonel Sergei's hands."
Wang Weiyi couldn't help laughing. It seemed that the three words "eat empty salary" could be seen everywhere.
"Where is the weapon?" Wang Weiyi asked with a smile on his face.
"Mosin 1891 rifle is short of bullets. There are three Maxim heavy machine guns, but one of them has malfunctioned and the other has been lost for no reason. Only one can be used, but there is also a lack of bullets."
Several officers of the Skeleton Commando looked at each other. What kind of troops are they? No wonder on the battlefield, the Russian army often collapsed at once, and had a huge number but could not show their advantages at all.
"Heavy machine guns will also be lost? Don't you need to investigate?" Rommel was a little unbelievable.
"You have to know that Colonel Sergey has eight children, and he has to support these children," said the Russian captain very obscurely.
Rommel shook his head with a wry smile. What kind of troops are they all!
Wang Weiyi also asked curiously: "Since there is a shortage of bullets, what supplies are there in your supply base?"
"The winter supplies, clothes, food, and some personal belongings stored there by senior officers."
Wang Weiyi glanced at the other party's flashing eyes and said slowly: "I think you should say everything you know in such a situation. This is of great benefit to protecting your life."
The Russian captain swallowed: "Yes, there are some other things, a large number of shells, Mr. Officer, now there is a serious lack of shells on the front line. Under General Kashanov's repeated pleas, Grand Duke Nikolai tried his best to get a batch of shells, which are now stored in Kasmidov."
Wang Weiyi's eyes lit up, a large number of shells? This was a good opportunity. He looked at his subordinates and found that these desperado were all eager to try just like him.
The elite Russian troops were concentrated on the front line, and the Russians in Kasmidov were simply vulnerable, and mutinies occurred at the most "appropriate" time.
This surveillance is the best opportunity God has given to the Skeleton Commando!
"Major, stop waiting, do it."
"Major, while we still have time, we have to go to Kasmidov's dance."
"Do it!" Wang Weiyi made up his mind: "But it sounds simple, but it is not easy to do it. No matter how bad the Russian army is, there are still three companies of soldiers, and we must maximize our tank advantages. Of course, it would be better if the Russians could defeat after seeing the tank."
Kasmidov has become the most plump meal in the eyes of all the members of the Skeleton Commando. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
