Imperial Overlord
: 1152 Volga Line
When Vatutin mentioned the entire war situation in Ukraine, the expressions of several Soviet generals present were not very good-because this was equivalent to exposing their shortcomings and killing them.
Every one of them participated in this huge battle. It can be said that the entire Ukraine was thrown away in their hands.
So after hearing what Vatutin said, several generals glanced at Comrade Stalin and began to figure out how to shirk their responsibilities.
"When I was fighting hard in Lviv, no one came to support me!" one of them said, pushing his responsibilities away.
Indeed, he fought hard in Lviv for more than ten days without taking a step back - but everyone knows that at that time the German army did not attack with all its strength.
At that time, the Southern Army Group was responsible for attracting the attention of the Soviet troops on the southern front, and it did not necessarily advance 10 kilometers for a few days.
Moreover, the Italian Expeditionary Force was responsible for the main attack on Lviv. Compared with the German army, its combat effectiveness was a bit worse than that of the German army.
So, when the general mentioned Lviv, another general quickly shied away: "My troops fought in Odessa for more than a month, and they lost a third without taking a step back!"
When the talking Soviet general spoke, the general next to him almost spat out a mouthful of old blood on the table in front of him.
The reason why Odessa has been able to persist for so long is not because the main attacking force has always been the servant army of Romania?
Moreover, the German army has not adopted the encirclement tactics, but only used Odessa to exercise the Romanian troops' ability to attack tough battles.
It is precisely because of this that the Soviet army can persist in Odessa for so long... Of course, at that time, the elite of the Soviet army was out, which was also a major reason for its strong combat effectiveness.
You must know that when the Battle of Odessa began, the Battle of Moscow was not yet completely over. Of course, the Soviet army's fighting strength and fighting determination could not be compared to the present.
Another general also pushed three or six five, waved his hand and said, "I am in charge of logistics support, and I have never delayed the transportation of materials!"
After a few people have finished speaking, I will not give others a chance to interrupt at all. It seems that everyone is afraid that Stalin, who is sitting on the seat, will put the responsibility for the war in Ukraine on them.
"Who would have thought that a Ukraine would be handed over to the Germans without holding on for two months." The admiral complained.
He doesn't care who is responsible, anyway, the losses of the navy must be borne by those 6th Army troops! If it wasn't for the fall of Odessa, how could the German fleet enter the Black Sea to fight?
What's more, even if the German army entered the Black Sea, if the 6th Army had not lost Melitopol, the naval ships would not have to flee the Asian Sea in a hurry!
Now it is good, the troops of the 6th Army are retreating again and again, and the Asian Sea has become a dangerous area. Rostov is no longer safe, the Navy's Black Sea Fleet has become a wandering ghost without a foundation, and it will be a matter of time to be annihilated.
A large number of transport ships and maintenance ships will face the fate of being sunk or forced to sink - this is not good news for the Soviet Union, which has a weak navy.
Because of this, when the Navy can satirize the 6th Army, it always makes a few sarcastic sentences to vent its dissatisfaction.
Of course, the 6th Army will also retort, so one person stood up and said angrily: "Your navy still has the face to talk about our 6th Army? I heard that the enemy's fleet was coming, and they left Sevastopol and ran away overnight, hum. Hmph, this battle is a good one!"
Another 6th Army general also said sarcastically: "Isn't it true, I ran away overnight and was overtaken by the German fleet, and the flagships were all sunk. Sevastopol is still fighting **** battles with the Germans, what about your navy's warships? Why? Not going to support?"
The fact that the Black Sea Fleet was severely damaged was no secret among the high-ranking officers in Stalingrad.
The generals of the 6th Army were also happy to use the failure of this naval battle to prevaricate the navy's accusations against the 6th Army. Of course, the Air Force has always been quiet, because they dare not speak out, for fear that the 6th Army and the Navy will remember their existence...
You must know that no matter how badly the 6th Army fought, they fought **** battles in more than a dozen cities. The reason why the Navy fought badly was because its strength was ten times different from that of the German Army.
Only their air force has a lot of troops, and they played poorly. The most terrible thing is that they have never had a decent record. From the beginning of the war to the present, the German army is basically 1 to 5 or even 1 to 10 in annihilating the Soviet Union. air force……
"Okay! Enough! Shut me up! Are you arguing enough?" Stalin slapped the table twice before making the venue quiet.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, and finally he still spoke out to stop his subordinates from blaming each other. The venue suddenly became quiet, everyone looked at Stalin and didn't dare to make a sound~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The defense line arranged along the Volga River, how are you preparing? Do you think that by the spring of next year, the Germans themselves will become vulnerable? "After a long silence, Vatutin knew it was time to speak, so he asked aloud.
A general awkwardly pointed his finger at the map spread on the conference table, pressed his finger near the Volga River and said, "Comrade Stalin, the great leader, Comrade General Vatutin, we have deployed two defenses on the east bank. fortifications."
"These fortifications are supported by permanent machine gun fire points, and mortars are reinforced around each machine gun fire point!" he said, gesticulating along the river: "We reinforced these machine gun bunkers with iron plates and concrete, Normal firepower cannot destroy them."
He's been strengthening these lines of defense lately, so it's a bit eloquent to talk about. Stalin also put a lot of thought into this line of defense, so the entire line of defense is still very solid.
After all, around March 1942, the Soviet army had to rely on these defensive measures to thwart the German attack first, and then consider the next counterattack.
"There is barbed wire on the river bank, and we also laid some mines! Near the first-level defense line of Stalingrad, some trenches were reinforced with reinforced concrete!" Finally, the officer said confidently: "Almost a hundred Kilometers, the Germans want to cross the Volga River, very difficult!"
Vatutin knew that what really made this line of defense unable to be penetrated was actually more than 200,000 supplementary soldiers behind the line of defense who had been trained for more than 4 months!
As long as these troops continue to enter Stalingrad, then this place will become a meat grinder, consuming all the elites of the German army!
