The decisive battle against the Third Reich

"Comrades of the Red Army!" Qin Chuan continued to shout: "You should know that Sevastopol can no longer be defended. While your commanders are shouting at you, 'Fight until the last moment,' where are they?" Woolen cloth?"

Just as he was talking, the whistle of a plane came faintly from the direction of Sevastopol. Qin Chuan took this opportunity to shout: "Look, that is the plane that is coming to pick up your commander to escape to the Caucasus. You should know that this is your plane." Last chance to get out of here!"

The Soviet troops at the foot of the mountain couldn't help but commotion.

"Comrade Igor!" someone shouted to Major General Igor: "Is what they say true?"

"No, not true!" Igor replied: "I didn't get any information, how could the Germans know?"

"Perhaps this is right!" the regiment leader responded: "They will not let us know about their escape, but the Germans are always monitoring them!"

After a pause, the communications soldier continued: "We really can't contact the headquarters!"

These words instantly caused a panic among the Soviet army.

"They really left us here!"

"They ordered us to fight until the last moment, but they themselves ran away shamelessly!"

"The most shameful thing is that they didn't even say anything to us!"

"Forget it, if you tell us, how can they escape in peace?"

"You're right, we fight here so they can escape in peace!"

…

All kinds of rumors are rampant. In fact, this can be said to be a rumor or not.

Call it a rumor, those officers did not actually escape, they retreated under the orders of Stalin and Oktyabryski.

It is said that it is not a rumor. These officers did deceive the garrison in Sevastopol, and they did leave the soldiers and fled.

Although this is understandable, because all countries in the world will choose to do this when encountering this situation... When the German army failed in the Battle of Moscow, they also used planes to evacuate senior officers and tank crews (Note: Skilled tank crews with combat experience are also very important to the German army) Valuable resources), another example is that when the U.S. military was surrounded by Japanese troops in the Philippines, MacArthur was also withdrawn alone.

The special thing about Sevastopol is that the Soviet army has always had very strict requirements for soldiers. Commanders require soldiers to move forward bravely and not be afraid of sacrifice. They cannot surrender and become prisoners at any time. They will even charge if they don't follow orders on the battlefield. He was shot, but the officer who was supposed to be demonstrating and taking the lead escaped at the critical moment.

This huge contrast made the soldiers feel that they had been betrayed by the country, so all kinds of negative emotions such as anger, disappointment, and panic suddenly emerged.

I don’t know who watched it, but the Soviet soldiers of the 388th Division evacuated towards Sevastopol. Although Major General Igor did not want to see this scene, he acquiesced to this behavior of his subordinates.

In fact, even Major General Igor himself wanted to go back and see if those commanders were escaping. If so, he thought he would at least spit in the faces of those senior officials who were usually sanctimonious and condescending. It will be much easier to relieve the hatred than stupidly fighting to the death with Germany.

This psychology is actually easy to understand, because the most hateful people in times of crisis are often not the enemies, because they are the enemies, and what they do on the battlefield is what they should do. The most hateful ones are those friends and comrades who stabbed them in the back. This is the hardest thing to accept and cannot be forgiven.

So, soon even Igor joined the retreating crowd with his guards.

Colonel Slaine and the German soldiers watched all this in stunned silence. They couldn't believe that Qinchuan "persuaded" a division of elite Soviet troops to retreat with just a few words. Not long ago, they were fighting each other inextricably. The Germans even They were all prepared to die.

"How do you know their commander is retreating?" Colonel Slain asked curiously.

"I don't know!" Qin Chuan sat back in the trench and replied, "But there's nothing to lose if you give it a try, right?"

Colonel Slaine couldn't help but laugh.

"Excellent!" said Colonel Slaine. "In fact, almost perfect. Captain, you saved us again!"

The situation of the Soviet army was not just as simple as the "retreat" seen by the German soldiers.

Major General Igor returned to Sevastopol with his troops, and saw that the Soviet officers were preparing to retreat at the port and airport. When they arrived, the guards had blocked these places because they were worried that the Soviet army would be desperate. of people scrambled to board planes and submarines.

Igor watched all this coldly. He did not step forward to argue with the officers who fled in a hurry, nor did he treat those officers in a "bipolar" manner like other soldiers.

The so-called "two poles" refer to the pleading of some soldiers, hoping that the officers can bring more people with them. Most people know that they have no hope, so they use the most disgusting words to accuse and curse.

Faced with this situation, the officers did not dare to say anything, because they knew that the most vulnerable people to offend at this time were these helpless, desperate, and angry soldiers, who could do anything at this time.

Facts also proved that these officers' approach was wise, because even so, a soldier still grabbed a Bobosha submachine gun and opened fire at the army officers' team. A logistics officer fell in a pool of blood. The team was in chaos for a while, and Some Soviet soldiers dropped their guns and jumped into the sea to swim towards the submarine.

But there is no need to say what the result was... Fearing overload, the sailors on the submarine waved their rifles and shot the soldiers who tried to board the submarine deck back into the sea.

Even at the last moment, the sailors did not dare to shoot, because they knew that the result of shooting would probably completely anger these soldiers and cause them to fire at the submarine.

In the end, the submarine left with the shouts of the Soviet soldiers, and the planes took off one after another and moved away from Sevastopol.

Major General Igor thought about it and said to the soldiers around him: "Give up those unrealistic ideas, we should think of ways to save ourselves!"

"Self-save?" The soldiers looked at Major General Igor in confusion.

"Do you see those cars?" Major General Igor raised his head at the cars lying in all directions at the port.

"What's the use of cars?" The soldiers asked: "Comrade Igor, can we drive it across the Black Sea?"

"No, of course it can't!" Igor replied: "But if you can remove the wooden carriage behind the car and tie a dozen tires to it, they may be able to!"

The soldiers suddenly realized.

Igor added: "If we can do this within an hour, we may still be alive!"
