Jagged Germany

"Comrade Zhukov, the Germans dispatched a large number of armored troops to attack our positions. Now, the suburban positions in the south, west and north of Moscow have been lost. The ministries suffered heavy losses and had to push into the city for defense." The former Chief of Staff of the Reserve Front and now the Chief of Staff of the Moscow Garrison Major General Liapin reported.

  General Zhukov nodded with a serious face. He did not expect that the German offensive would be so fierce. 15 armored divisions and 30 mechanized infantry divisions directly used a torrent of steel composed of tanks and armored vehicles to overwhelm the Russian defenses outside Moscow. And this allowed the Russian generals, including General Zhukov, to once again see the strength of the German army. Obviously, in field operations, the Russian army is no longer the opponent of the Germans. Even when they were fighting in the field, they didn't even have the ability to stop the Germans a little bit. The huge armored force of the German army will drown all enemies.

   "I didn't expect that the Germans would dispatch such a large armored force to launch an attack. I also didn't expect that our troops would be defeated so quickly!" General Zhukov said helplessly.

   "Comrade Commander, I'm afraid the Kremlin already knows the situation on the front line. How should we explain it?" Lieutenant General Krugnov, the former political commissar of the Reserve Front and now the political commissar of the Moscow Garrison, was a little worried.

   You know, Joseph has been paying attention to this battle. The reason why he stayed in Moscow, which was heavily surrounded by German troops, and did not flee to other safe places, was to urge the Russian army to resist the German attack. It is even expected that the Russian army can defeat the Germans in one fell swoop. Now that the front line is like this, you don't need to think about it, Joseph will definitely be very dissatisfied.

   "Comrade Joseph, I will explain to him." General Zhukov said. He knew that a scolding meal might be indispensable.

   Lieutenant General Krugnov nodded and said no more.

"Order all the ministries, strengthen your defenses! After the Germans capture the suburbs of Moscow, they will definitely attack the city. The real battle is about to begin. Although the city of Moscow has been destroyed. However, the German armored forces Fighting in the urban area is still difficult. In this case, we still have a great possibility to resist the German attack." General Zhukov said.

   "Yes, Comrade Commander." Lieutenant General Krugnov and Major General Liapin both replied.

  Subsequently, Zhukov received a call from the Kremlin, and Comrade Joseph wanted to summon him.

  General Zhukov had no choice but to rush to Moscow to explain to Joseph the reason for the failure of the defense.

  Although Joseph was very dissatisfied with the defeat of the Russian army's defense in the outskirts. But he also had to, with the Germans dispatching a large number of armored troops, the Russian army had nothing to do. Even if the Russian army was in its heyday, I am afraid that it would not be able to stop the steel torrent composed of more than 7,000 Tiger and Leopard tanks and a large number of armored vehicles by the German army, let alone the current Russian army.

  General Zhukov assured Joseph that after the battle spread to the city of Moscow, the attack power of the German armored forces would be greatly limited, and the Russian army could withstand the German attack. General Zhukov's assurance made Joseph feel better. After encouraging General Zhukov, General Zhukov was allowed to leave.

  On May 15, the German army's attack on the downtown area of ​​​​Moscow officially began. Because the battle has advanced to downtown Moscow, this allows the German artillery positions to be further relocated. The German army can assemble a large number of artillery and fire directly into the city of Moscow.

  Although the current Moscow city has been bombed into ruins by the Luftwaffe. But countless Russian soldiers are like Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death, building fortifications in the ruins and setting up firepower points in an attempt to stop the German attack. The artillery of the German army can directly provide fire support for the infantry. In this way, the loss of the infantry can be further reduced.

  On the day of May 15th, the three German army groups dispatched 13 mechanized infantry divisions and 39 infantry divisions to attack the city of Moscow from the south, west, and north of Moscow.

  During the first round of attacks on downtown Moscow, the German army did not invest many troops from slave countries. After all, it seems that the Russian army's defense in Moscow is the strongest. If the servants are rashly sent to the battlefield, they will undoubtedly suffer heavy losses. Once the morale of the servant army is affected, then the next battle may be even more difficult to fight.

   Wait until the German army inflicts heavy damage on the Russian army in Moscow before sending the servants to the battlefield. In this case, the servant army will be able to persist in the battle and continue to consume the vital strength of the Russian army. The main force of the German army can be withdrawn from the city of Moscow. It only needs to keep a small part of the troops in the city of Moscow to ensure that the battle has been developing in favor of the German army.

"Da da da!"

  The machine gun of an infantry fighting vehicle is firing, suppressing a barricade of the Russian army. The twin 20mm rapid-fire guns on the infantry fighting vehicle are also firing crazily. The barricade hit by the dense shells is completely powerless to fight back.

   Under the cover of infantry fighting vehicles, dozens of German troops are charging along both sides of the street.

   "Boom!"

  An anti-tank firepower point arranged by the Russian army on a crumbling three-story building opened fire.

  An armor-piercing projectile accurately hit the infantry fighting vehicle that was showing off.

   The defense of infantry fighting vehicles is not as good as that of tanks. At such a short distance, it is even more impossible to defend against the Russian anti-tank guns. The armor-piercing projectile fired by the anti-tank gun immediately tore through the defense of the infantry fighting vehicle. The armored soldiers inside came out covered in fire.

  Lost the fire suppression of infantry fighting vehicles, the originally suppressed Russian barricade immediately launched a counterattack.

  Two machine guns began to fire, causing a lot of damage to the attacking German army. The rest of the troops were also suppressed and did not dare to move on.

  The battle became more fierce. Without the cover of armored vehicles, the German army could only use other methods to destroy the Russian army here. In that case, the loss of the troops will undoubtedly be even greater.

   "Machine gun fire, mortar fire, destroy the enemy's firepower point! Sniper, find the Russian anti-tank firepower point, and suppress them!" A second lieutenant platoon leader ordered with a livid face.

   "Da da da!" A general-purpose machine gun and three squad machine guns began to fire.

  A mortar and three grenade launchers also started firing crazily.

  The three snipers used sniper rifles to suppress the exposed Russian anti-tank firepower points.
