??Chapter 642 Handover

In fact, Shulka believes that the work of the cadet troops near the No. 2 railway station is still immature... Although the cadet troops have given actual combat guidance and command to the NKVD troops, the NKVD troops still seriously lack excellent snipers and adaptable personnel. Mortar.

As we all know, snipers and mortarers are the basis of sneak attack tactics... Without their cover, it is almost impossible for the commando to lurk, infiltrate the enemy's line of defense and approach the enemy's line of defense, or even if they succeed, they will have to pay heavy casualties. The damage and pressure caused are negligible.

?? But the battlefield is like this, it will not change with people's will or needs.

??Especially in Stalingrad, it actually has loopholes and dangers everywhere in the entire fifty-kilometer-long and five-kilometer-wide defense line.

??The tactics of No. 2 railway station are immature and insufficiently prepared, and other places are even blank.

??Thus, although he was a little flustered in his heart, Shulka ordered the cadet troops to do a good job of command handover.

??The so-called handover of command refers to the return of the command to the NKVD...Before this, the cadet troops held the command of the battle. Although their military ranks were not high, they issued orders to other soldiers and even officers as instructors during the battle.

??Transfer of command power means that the instructor observes during the battle, and then selects soldiers or officers who perform better to take over their work.

?? Among them, Shulka was still a little worried, and he specially issued an order: "The military rank is not considered when the command is handed over. If the military rank does not meet the command requirements, it will be reported to the command headquarters!"

The reason for emphasizing military ranks is that on the one hand, the bureaucracy of the NKVD troops is very serious, and on the other hand, those who can be promoted in the Soviet army are usually "brave" and "firm stand". It is indeed useful, but it is too much to go too far, especially now to fight sniper warfare, sneak attack warfare, and guerrilla warfare with the enemy, let alone emphasize bravery one-sidedly.

?? Therefore, the command should be transferred to those soldiers who can be flexible rather than officers.

??As for the military rank... Just pass the list to Dimitri. These, these, and these, all need to be promoted. What rank should be promoted is just a matter of one sentence.

??The reason for promotion is also very easy. Anyway, they are all in battle, either the results or performance, just find a little bit of sparkle.

?? After all this was done, Shulka felt relieved.

?? "If there is any change, you can contact me at any time!" Shulka said.

Dimitri nodded, held Shulka's hand tightly, and hugged Shulka excitedly: "I don't know how to express my gratitude to you, Comrade Shulka! You It taught me a lot, and I even felt that what I learned before was useless...It describes the war in another world!"

?? "This is another world, Comrade Dimitri!" Shulka replied.

It is not surprising to have such a feeling. The officers and soldiers of the Soviet Army should have felt this from the very beginning, but because people’s thinking has become a natural habit, most people will not suspect that there are any problems in strategy and tactics. It's just one-sided thinking that "not brave enough", "insufficient troops" and other factors. It wasn't until the new tactics were used and proved to be effective that when I looked back, I suddenly realized that this was not the case.

?? Simply put, what Dimitri learned in the military academy is out of touch with reality.

?? When Shulka withdrew from the front, Hitler finally knew the real situation in Stalingrad.

??At this time, Hitler was in his private villa in Eagle Castle in Germany.

?? This Eagle Fort located in the Alps was a birthday gift built for Hitler by his subordinates who spent a lot of manpower and material resources.

?? This year, Hitler returned to Germany on his birthday (April 20) to rest for a period of time after commanding the battle on the Eastern Front at Wolf’s Lair by remote control. One of his footholds was the Eagle’s Nest.

??Hitler liked to set up a deck chair outdoors and look down at the scenery down the mountain. If he was interested, he would set up a drawing board and draw a picture.

?? Just as Hitler relaxed himself, Goering walked up to him.

?? "I hope what you are going to report is good news, my Field Marshal!" Hitler said without looking back.

?? "Sorry, Your Excellency the Führer!" Goering replied, and then fell silent.

?? Goering knew when he should shut up. For example, now, he was not sure whether the Führer wanted to hear the news.

good news? Rarely has there been any decent good news since the Battle of Moscow!

??Hitler also understood this. The war on the Eastern Front has become more and more difficult. The era of easy wars and successive big victories seems to be gone forever.

??He was silent for a while, then sighed, and asked, "Stalingrad?"

?? "Yes, Stalingrad!" Goering replied: "The interspersed plan has completely failed. In addition, the Russians have also changed their tactics. It caused our army's casualties to increase linearly, but the advancing speed is very slow!"

Hitler turned suddenly, then pumped his fists and said: "That's not what Paulus said, he promised me that he would soon break through the Stalingrad line and put it underfoot! Soon! More than once! "

?? "Obviously!" Goering spread his hands: "He failed to do this!"

??Goering is a little gloating, he needs this very much, because Goering has gradually lost power since the defeat of the Great Britain Air Battle.

?? Regarding this point, Goering has always been stalking.

??Because the failure of the British air battle was actually related to Hitler... Goering meant to concentrate the air force on bombing British airports and military installations, while Hitler ordered the air force to bomb London itself.

??The two options should be said to have their own reasons.

??Goering's idea is to concentrate firepower to kill the enemy's vital forces first. If the British Air Force can be defeated, then the German Air Force can bomb wherever it wants to bomb.

??Hitler's idea was to use bombing to avenge Britain's bombing of Germany, destroying the British will to resist through bombing and forcing them to surrender...Because he believed that the British people were the more vulnerable party, the overall strike was more effective.

?? It turns out that Hitler thought things too simply.

??Pure air bombing is very difficult to destroy the enemy's will to resist, especially the fighter planes during World War II. Not only that, but it will arouse the anger of the people and unite with the army.

??So this is actually a mistake in the strategic direction, which is doomed for the German army to lose this battle.

?? But of course, Hitler would not admit his mistakes, and of course Goering will bear the blame.

??What Goering can do is to hope to find an opportunity to perform and regain reuse.
