??Chapter 378 Looting
??Finally, I have resigned. I am light. Writing books in the future will be the work of soldiers. You are my parents... Does it feel like your status has been improved in an instant? It's just pitiful for me, I entered the wolf's den as soon as I left the tiger's den! When will one day be able to inherit tens of millions of inheritance without having to work...
??**********
??Facts have proved that Hitler's judgment was wrong, or it can be said that Hitler knew that he was wrong at all, and he was just looking for an excuse for his "unwilling to retreat".
Under the command of Marshal Luge, the Fourth Army retreated in an orderly manner, while the Fourth Tank Army was defeated by the Kalinin Front Army and suffered heavy losses all the way... Only then did it really appear, as Hitler said, all the way Situations where heavy equipment and even rifles are dropped.
??This is actually the result of disrespecting objective facts and thinking that everything can be changed only by spirit and will.
Shulka believes that Hitler must have never learned the Chinese art of war, otherwise he should know that it is taboo for military strategists to change generals before the battle, and Hitler's "changing generals before the battle" is not just one or two, but a large number of them. Ann, von Bock, Hoepner and other prestigious generals were replaced one after another.
??If it weren't for the good quality of the German army, it simply wouldn't be able to withstand Hitler's toss.
From this we can also see Hitler's stubbornness. A large number of heroic and outstanding generals on the front line proposed to retreat in groups. This already shows that the front line has reached the brink of collapse. If the supplies are sufficient before attacking, there may be hope for taking Moscow.
After all, the German army collapsed and was forced to retreat, and they only withdrew to a position about 200 kilometers away from Moss to stabilize their position... and 200 kilometers, it may only take a few days for the German army, which has air supremacy and tanks that can move. time.
??Of course, Shulka can only be thankful for Hitler's self-willedness, otherwise Moscow will always be restless under the edge of the German army.
??Now, Shulka knows that at least in the direction of Moscow, he no longer needs to worry about the German attack.
??The soldiers followed the tanks and slowly advanced. After the German army retreated, the 1st Guards Tank Brigade was ordered to occupy Tver.
The reason why the 1st Guards Tank Brigade was ordered to occupy Tver was, on the one hand, that the speed of the "Matilda" tanks of the 1st Guards Tank Brigade was too slow for pursuit. They can't keep up, not to mention that the Soviet army still has a large number of ski camps at this time.
?? On the other hand, Tver is an important traffic location. Rokossovsky was worried that the German army would counterattack and reoccupy it, so he simply arranged for the 1st Guards Tank Brigade to station in Tver.
?? "You have done enough!" Rokossovsky said: "Leave the rest to other troops!"
?? Katukov has no problem with this.
??He said to the soldiers: "We are used on the most difficult battlefields. Of course, the easy tasks do not need the 1st Guards Tank Brigade!"
??The soldiers laughed proudly.
??The tank crossed the Tver River and soon led the soldiers into the main city of Tver.
?? This is the second time that the 1st Guards Tank Brigade has entered Tver, so they are familiar with the road and headed straight to the train station at the fastest speed...
??The railway station is the concentration point of German transportation, and there will definitely be a lot of supplies there, especially when a large amount of materials are intercepted here waiting to be transported to the Fourth Tank Army.
?? Sure enough, when the Soviet tanks slowly drove to the train station, they found that there were still a few German cars parked at the gate of the train station, and dozens of German soldiers were nervously moving things.
??A shell from the tank blasted one of the cars into the sky, and other German soldiers jumped into the car and fled under the pursuit of bullets and shells.
??The Soviet army did not pursue, in fact, they couldn't catch up... "Matilda" couldn't even catch up with people, let alone cars.
??Perhaps it was precisely because of knowing this that the German army carrying supplies dared to persist until this time before leaving.
??The tanks continued to move forward, and the troops quickly became chaotic.
??The reason is that there are cans, bread, and even chocolates and biscuits specially for tank soldiers scattered everywhere on the ground... Tank soldiers consume a lot of energy, and it is inconvenient or even dangerous to put a whole can of cans in the tank.
?? It is inconvenient because it needs to be opened when eating, which is not easy to do in a narrow space, especially when marching or fighting.
??It is dangerous because tanks often cross obstacles on high slopes or even jump violently. If a whole can of cans jumps up and hits the tank soldier on the head, he will become a "hero" who died heroically in the hands of food.
?? Therefore, the food of German tank soldiers is usually chocolate and biscuits, which can be eaten at any time to replenish their physical strength.
??These things were obviously very attractive to the Soviet soldiers. They couldn't bear the temptation, and they jumped to the front of the tank to pick up and move forward. Then more and more people did this, and even the tank had to stop.
Shulka frowned, pulled out his pistol and fired two "bang bang" shots into the sky, shouting: "Put all the food back, if anyone continues to do this... Believe me, I will kick you out of the army Go to court martial!"
?? This made the instructor a little confused, because in his opinion, this is a normal thing.
??But at this time, the instructor chose to support Shulka without hesitation.
?? "Did you hear what Comrade Captain said?" The instructor said, "Put the food back!"
??So the soldiers had no choice but to throw the food back to the ground reluctantly, allowing the tanks to drive forward and crush it to pieces.
??The actor watched several packs of cigarettes being rolled into the tank, and couldn't help asking distressedly: "Comrade Captain, why did you do this? Are these foods poisonous?"
?? "No, I don't think so!" Shulka replied.
"That is…"
?? "They will be ours after all!" Shulka said: "As long as we defend Tver, it is only a matter of time. But if there is such an undisciplined scramble, what will happen if the enemy suddenly launches a counterattack?"
??Hearing this, the soldiers couldn't help but suddenly realized.
??The instructor immediately ordered: "From now on, no one is ordered not to loot food!"
?? Shulka's concerns are justified.
??In fact, this point was even used by the German army on the battlefield... The German army found that it was a common phenomenon for the Soviet army to loot food and supplies, so they deliberately left supplies and ambushed nearby, including French brandy.
??French brandy has a much better taste than the crude Vodka made by the Soviet Army, and the Soviet soldiers were always unable to resist their temptation.
?? Then, when the Soviet army was in a mess, the German army launched a counterattack.
?? This even gave the Germans time and space to retreat.
??Sure enough, not long after the news came from the friendly army that the German army counterattacked and suffered heavy losses...Of course, for reasons of face, they would not say that they lost their vigilance due to looting food and suffered heavy losses.
