Jagged Germany

  In the city of Chelm, the fierce naval battle continued. The attack of the two German infantry divisions on the Russian army did not slow down because of the transfer of the main force of the 8th Armored Division, but became more violent.

  Colonel Rommel led the main force to assist the 51st Infantry Division to attack the Russian 22nd Infantry Army. In the city of Chelm, only less than 20 tanks were left to cooperate with the 49th Infantry Division and the 50th Infantry Division. The lack of a large number of tanks has weakened the German army's attack capability, but they are still advancing continuously, squeezing the living space of the Russian army and causing greater casualties to the Russian army.

   "The first squad covers fire, the second squad frontally attacks, and the third squad turns around!" A German platoon leader ordered.

"Da da da!"

  The platoon belonged to heavy machine guns and mortars, and started shooting. The squad's machine gun also fired immediately, and the dense bullets sent smoke and dust to the Russian barricade at the end of the street. Those Russian soldiers were so suppressed that they couldn't even raise their heads.

   "Boom!" A mortar shell hit the barricade of the Russian army. The explosion sounded and killed many Russian soldiers inside.

   Taking advantage of this opportunity, a squad of German troops launched an attack on the Russian barricade and successfully broke through the barricade. After a brutal hand-to-hand fight, the barricade was occupied by the Germans. With this barricade as the center, the German army began to attack all around, clearing out the surrounding Russian troops.

  In the city of Chelm, the positions of the Russian army are constantly being lost, and the casualties are also increasing. This made it more difficult for the Russian army to persist in the city. Many Russian soldiers who were injured in the battle had no one to take care of them at all. They could only endure the pain caused by the trauma, and in the midst of howling, they felt their lives passing away little by little.

"General, our position is lost. The German offensive is too fierce, and we can't stop it at all! Now, there are less than a thousand people left in my army." A major general and division commander reported with a ashen face. .

"The German attack is getting more and more violent. And our troops are retreating steadily. If this continues, we will not be able to withstand the German attack. Soon, the entire Chelm will fall under the Germans' control." In your hand." Lieutenant General Fyodor said with red eyes. In the past two days, he has hardly rested for a moment. Although, he has tried everything. However, the current battle situation is still very unfavorable to them. For the Russian army, the situation is constantly deteriorating, and he seems to have seen that failure is imminent.

   "Where has the 22nd Army arrived? Why hasn't it arrived yet?" Lieutenant General Golovin asked.

   The 22nd Army, which was ordered to reinforce them, has become their only hope. If the 22nd Army can arrive in time, relying on these new forces, it may be able to barely stop the German attack. Otherwise, the troops currently deployed in the city of Chelm would not be able to withstand the German attack at all.

"I don't know. I have sent a telegram to inquire. But there is no news at all. Only God knows when that fellow Boris will arrive in Chelm. I hope he will not come to collect the body for us." Lieutenant General Fyodor smiled wryly.

   "Damn it!" Lieutenant General Golovin couldn't help cursing.

  They are now like bears trapped in a trap. They have tried their best, but there is still no way. They can only watch the enemy approaching constantly, and eventually lose their lives.

  At this moment, a staff officer rushed in with a look of panic.

   Lieutenant General Fyodor and Lieutenant General Golovin couldn't help feeling tense after seeing this scene. They knew that there must be some bad news coming.

   "Report! The 22nd Infantry Corps is calling. They were attacked by the German army. The troops suffered heavy losses, and now the whole army has collapsed." The staff officer said.

   "What? How is this possible?"

"Excuse, this must be the excuse made by that guy Boris. The main force of the Germans is still in Chelm, how could they attack them? I will report to General Dimitriev and expose that shameless guy Boris !” General Golovin was furious.

"General, the 22nd Infantry Division reported that they were not only attacked by a large number of German infantry and tanks, but also by a large number of German aircraft. This made the 22nd Infantry Corps collapse." The staff officer continued.

   "A large number of planes and tanks? Could it be that other German troops have taken action? The German Eighth Army has more than just such a small number of troops." Lieutenant General Feodor said.

   Lieutenant General Golovin's face also continued to darken. Regardless of whether the collapse of the 22nd Infantry Corps is true or not, it is very bad news for them. Originally, the 22nd Infantry Army had become their life-saving straw. However, the 22nd Infantry Army was defeated by the Germans before it reached Chelm. This undoubtedly made them lose their reinforcements. If they want to continue in Chelm, they can only rely on their own strength. And that, obviously, is impossible. The sharp attack of the German army has proved that their resistance is so fragile in the face of the powerful attack of the German army.

   "Fyodor, what should we do now? Can we continue to persevere?" Lieutenant General Golovin asked.

   Lieutenant General Fyodor shook his head: "Judging from the attack strength of the Germans, we will be wiped out by them by tomorrow at the latest!"

   "No, we can't go on like this. Let's break through!" Lieutenant General Golovin suggested.

   "Breakthrough?" Lieutenant General Fyodor was taken aback. Admiral Dimitriev's order was to ask them to stick to Chelm. If they broke through, it would undoubtedly violate Admiral Dimitriev's order.

   However, for the sake of his own life, Lieutenant General Fyodor still approved this suggestion.

  In the evening of that day, the remaining Russian troops in Chelm broke out to the south in an attempt to escape from Chelm. But unfortunately, they ran into the German 51st Infantry Division, which defeated the Russian 22nd Infantry Corps, and dozens of tanks of the 8th Armored Division.

   This naturally made the breakout of the Russian army smashed as easily as hitting a stone with a pebble.

  In the case of heavy losses, the rest of the Russian army had to retreat to Chelm again. The Germans, on the other hand, completed the siege of Chelm. The Russian army inside is hard to fly even with wings.

  The breakout failed, and an atmosphere of despair spread within the Russian army. Many Russian officers and soldiers do not want to be killed. So, they joined forces and demanded that Lieutenant General Fyodor and Golovin surrender to the Germans.

  Under tremendous pressure, Lieutenant General Feodor and Lieutenant General Golovin had no choice but to adopt this suggestion and send someone to contact the German army about the surrender.
