Four hundred. Go ahead, Skeleton Master! Monthly Pass)
At 6 a.m. on January 16, the battlefield of Dmyansk.
The gap in the encirclement was re-encircled as a large number of Soviet troops arrived at the battlefield.
However, before this, the German army had transported 4,500 wounded people and successfully completed the breakthrough of more than 10,000 German troops.
Moreover, after receiving the order from General Ernst, the Paipa combat regiment had completed its reunion with the Skeleton Division. What was even more gratifying was that with the support of the SS Armored Division, the SS "Artino" combat group tenaciously tore a hole in the Soviet position on the left wing of the Skeleton Division, and successfully sent 35 Tiger tanks and 20 self-propelled artillery in!
The opening of the Artino battle group was re-encircled by the Soviet army three hours later.
However, the German army was not willing to do so. At 1 pm on the 16th, the stubborn and surprising SS Panzer Division tear a gap on the Western Front for the second time. Wang Weiyi quickly ordered the Ludwig battle group, who was the defender, to provide reinforcements and ensure the safety of the opening.
A large number of besieged German troops broke out along this lifeline. As the German troops broke through, the supply troops also entered the encirclement and sent a large amount of supplies, including sufficient food and ammunition, tank shells, winter clothes, and even some Tiger tank engines and spare parts.
The tenacity and sacrifice of the SS are awe-inspiring.
It was too time for them to come. The continuous battles made the Skeleton Division's weapons and ammunition run out, and the arrival of supplies made the Skeleton Division revitalize its powerful combat power again.
Now, Wang Weiyi's strength has been further strengthened.
The Paipa Battle Group and the Artino Battle Group are all the most elite troops in the German army.
The arrival of Tiger tanks and self-propelled artillery also gave Wang Weiyi the confidence to continue to deal with the Soviet army.
At 5 pm on the 16th, the encirclement was once again closed by the equally tenacious Soviet army.
Tear open, close, tear open, close again, close again, bloody battles and fights again and again, the German and Soviet armies were completely red in the Ladev area
At this time, the German army, who were once again in the encirclement, were fearless at all.
The skeleton division that tear opens the gap in the Soviet army and covers the German retreat, their fighting will is so high.
In Radev, when the Skeleton Division, Paipa Battle Group and Artino Battle Group learned that their beloved General Ernst Breme had rejected the Supreme Command for the third time and decided to fight with his soldiers to the end, the earth-shaking cry resounded throughout the battlefield!
Long live - Ernst Bryme!
He refused the order to retreat alone three times, but the breakout had been torn open, but he always fought with his soldiers in everything. When the most critical moment on the battlefield was he commanding 11 Tiger tanks to resist the attack of 200 Soviet T34 tanks!
What he made the soldiers respect was not his victory after victory on the battlefield, but his spirit of sacrifice, and his firm belief in never abandoning any companion!
Now, all the German troops here have an equally firm belief:
We - with him!
A story is circulating among German soldiers: the third telegram from the Supreme Command was sent to General Ernst by the head of the empire Adolf Hitler himself. In the telegram, the head of state almost made General Ernst withdraw in a pleading tone, and the commander of the Richterthofen Air Force had mobilized more than 500 aircraft to provide reinforcements at any time, and the troops of Manstein and General Guderian were also ready to respond.
But General Ernst's call back only has one sentence:
"I'm here, I'm leaving with the last German soldier!"
I left with the last German soldier!
This sentence aroused the greatest fighting enthusiasm of German soldiers - to attack for the general!
As the outbreak came, there was a passion for fighting. Every German soldier was ready:
Use your life to defend General Ernst!
Everyone can die here, but General Ernst cannot!
He is a symbol of Germany, he is the pride of Germany! With him, even if the last German soldier has died in battle, Germany can still win the war!
This kind of fanatical belief is unimaginable to soldiers of any country.
"General, there are more than 10,000 German soldiers moving closer to this place! At the same time, more than 30,000 German soldiers have also received news of their retreat to the Ladev area!" Colonel Caplo hurried over.
"It is necessary to tear open the breakout in Ladefu for the fourth time!" Wang Weiyi pondered: "Can the soldiers continue to fight?"
"Yes, General!" Capro's answer was so decisive: "The soldiers are willing to die for you! The soldiers are willing to tear the gap under your command and then act as a cover force! For you, the Skeleton Division is willing to fight to the last soldier!"
"I need them to be alive!" Wang Weiyi's face was solemn: "Order the Paipa battle group to launch an assault on the west side, and be assigned to them the Third Armored Artillery Corps; the Artino battle group to launch an assault on the eastern front, and be assigned to them the Third Armored Reconnaissance Battalion. Order the Van der Winnie battle group to launch an assault on the Lanmingden. I will personally command the Ernst battle group to launch an assault on the 13th Armored Army of the Soviet Army!"
Capro was stunned: "The 13th Panzer Army? General, that is the Soviet ace force commanded by Lieutenant General Magfederluff."
"Ace?" Wang Weiyi smiled contemptuously: "I have seen many ace troops of the enemy, but there is nothing. Let all the troops prepare and put them all into the attack in half an hour!"
"Yes, General!"
"Tell all the breakout forces that they must arrive within three hours, and we will tear the encirclement at this time!"
"I understand, general!"
Wang Weiyi sorted out his officer's big hat: "Six Knife, are you ready to go back to the battlefield?"
"It's done, general." Guo Yunfeng replied loudly.
"You will command the Third Armored Engineer Battalion, and in addition to attacking with me, you will also blow up the Russian positions as much as possible."
"No problem, General."
Wang Weiyi smiled. His subordinate who didn't talk much would always be the most trustworthy one.
At 7:00 on the night of January 16, under the command of Wang Weiyi, the Skeleton Division once again attacked the Soviet army.
Wang Weiyi, who personally commanded the Ernst battle group, directly targeted the hardest bone recognized by the German army in Demyansk:
Magfeldluff's 13th Armored Army!
No one can call himself "Ace" in front of the Skeleton Baron, no!
At 7 o'clock, Wang Weiyi concentrated all the artillery fire and bombarded violently at the Soviet positions.
When everyone thought that they would follow the usual rules at night, Wang Weiyi chose to break through during the day. When everyone thought that General Ernst would continue the old-fashioned practices of World War I and tried not to fight at night, Wang Weiyi chose to break through at night again!
No one can really grasp what General Ernst Bryme is thinking
The artillery and anti-tank guns were replenished, and the shells were thrown frantically at the Soviet positions opposite. The explosion and burning flames shone brightly on the night sky in an instant.
The Soviet army could not understand what the Germans wanted to do! From day to night, the only thing the Germans were doing was his damn thing:
Attack, offense, uninterrupted attack!
Don't these damn Germans know what fatigue is?
The artillery fire seemed to be crazy. Looking at the fire rising from the Soviet position, the soldiers of the Skeleton Division were a little impatient.
They wish they could start attacking immediately now!
However, Wang Weiyi has not issued an offensive order for a long time. He must use powerful artillery fire to completely suppress the Soviet army!
To achieve the greatest victory at the lowest cost, this sentence applies no matter which battlefield you are in!
Finally, when the opposite position was blown to pieces and the Soviet army was blown to no avail, Wang Weiyi jumped onto a tiger tank:
"attack!"
These two simplest words burst out at that moment the biggest, most fanatical, and most crazy fighting enthusiasm among the soldiers of the Skeleton Division!
Go ahead, Skeleton Master!
Seeing the Third Armored Engineer Battalion commanded by Guo Yunfeng pass by him, Wang Weiyi called Guo Yunfeng and then asked in Chinese:
"Si Dao, what is the difference between this place and the Chinese battlefield?"
"We have strong artillery fire support here." Guo Yunfeng said lightly.
Wang Weiyi smiled: "Yes, we have the most powerful artillery support. When dawn, the Luftwaffe will reinforce us at all costs. Go and win, Captain Guo Yunfeng."
"I think I can be a colonel." Guo Yunfeng muttered, and then he said loudly: "Third Armored Engineer Battalion, advance!"
Wang Weiyi laughed loudly, Yes, Guo Yunfeng can be a general, but the captain was the highest military rank that Guo Yunfeng won before World War I.
"Go forward, move forward! Kill the Russians!"
"Tank, speed up!"
"What are you doing from the Third Armored Communications Battalion? Are you going to let those damn infantry surpass us?"
"Hey, hey, don't let those guys from the Third Communications Battalion surpass us, go forward, go forward!"
Amid the calls, the full attack of the Skeleton Division began!
The guys in the third battleground reporter platoon kept faithfully recording this scene with the camera in their hands:
Groups of brave and fearless German soldiers, carrying MP38, MP40 submachine guns, or 98K Mauser rifles, launched a tide-like attack with the tanks. Soon, these photos will appear in major newspapers throughout Europe! Then, a fanatical baron storm will be set off again throughout Europe!
On one of the Tiger tanks, standing was their most beloved general:
Marshal Ernst Alexand von Breme!
Go forward, Skeleton Master! (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
