"In other words, what rushed into our city was not some stragglers or German airborne troops, but the main armored division?" Twenty minutes later, tiemuxinge got the exact news, which made him excited: "the Germans dare to go deep alone. Just right, we can encircle them!"

Timoshin looked at the map in front of him with joy in his eyes: "prepare a plane for me. I'll go back to Moscow immediately. I'm going to ask for soldiers!"

Tiemuxinge insisted that he did not slip away before the arrival of the Germans. He wanted to invite Stalin and give himself more reserves in the rear, so that he could have enough troops to implement the anti siege.

But he didn't know that as soon as he left Smolensk, he never came back, and the fall of Smolensk also heralded the ups and downs in Moscow.

Tiemuxinge knows that his current strength is just enough to defend the current defense line, and he will be broken through by the enemy from time to time. He simply has no ability to implement the anti siege. If he has sufficient strength, why let Lu Jin organize the civil corps to defend the city.

Now, there must be new reserves in the rear. I can just ask for those reserves.

With this idea, timoshingo left Smolensk. Before leaving, he urged Lukin again.

"General Lukin, Smolensk will be handed over to you. You don't just want to defend the North City District, but to think of a counterattack." Tiemuxinge's order, in Lukin's eyes, is absolutely nonsense.

Counterattack? What do you have in your hand to counter attack? Rely on two or three people, a gun, an infantry squad and a grenade to counter attack? You're kidding!

Lukin frowned and took his guard to the suburb of northern Smolensk. He had no other way. Now, as long as it was a passing army, he had to stop and defend the city.

For him, attacking south is bullshit. His main task is how to prevent the opposite Germans from crossing the river to attack Beicheng district.

Lukin didn't know that his luck was so good.

When he came to the northern suburbs, pie fell from the sky.

"What part are you?" Lukin shouted, looking at the dark people in front of him.

These people wear fairly neat military uniforms and hold weapons in their hands. It seems that they are not beaten back, but transferred to the present. If the other party has a military order, Lu Jin will also grab it.

Especially when Lukin looked behind these people, there were cannons!

"We are the 38th division of the 19th group army. Now, our division has no order. I am ye Ruofu, head of the infantry regiment." Ye Ruofu said.

His face was filled with fear, and his heart was full of fire.

Their division has no command and no task, which is the most speechless.

Over the past few days, they have received several orders a day. One said to go east and the other said to go west. They are tired of running. As a result, they are surrounded by the Germans in the northwest of Smolensk.

In fact, they were not surrounded. The Germans didn't find them. The Germans were on their way. The Germans ran in front of them. As a result, they were passively behind the enemy.

After discovering this situation, they did not dare to retreat at first. After all, Pavlov was shot and the commanders were afraid.

However, watching the German soldiers surpass them, they can't contact their superiors. Finally, each regiment has made its own choice. Retreat.

They successfully ran out of Smolensk, but they were still afraid. Would they be regarded as deserters?

Hearing ye Ruofu's answer, Lu Jin felt a little star in front of him. It's really good news. He actually picked up such a big bargain!

Formed units, three infantry regiments and two artillery regiments, a full loaded division!

With these people, you can guard the north of the city.

Lukin immediately said, "I'm general Lukin. Now I'm in charge of the defense of Smolensk. I order you to accept my command immediately. All troops move into the urban area and defend along the Bank of Dnieper River to prevent the German army from crossing the river."

"Yes!" Ye Ruofu immediately agreed. Now someone will command them. They continue to fight, so they don't have to worry about being investigated for the responsibility of evacuating the position. A soldier sits up from the ground and trots all the way to the urban area.

With his strongest reinforcements, Lukin rushed to the crossfire area. When he came here, it was the most intense time of the battle.

The Germans did not waste time at all. After discovering that the bridge was bombed, they immediately opened up an attack site. Infantry combat vehicles were ready to float over. At the same time, behind them, the main tanks were also preparing.

They can't wait to build the bridge. After crossing the river last time, they have been attacking and left behind the bridge equipment. It will take at least one day for those equipment to come.

However, their main tanks still have a unique job. They can install vent pipes and go to the bottom of the river.

The river here is relatively gentle, and the depth is just right, which fully meets the conditions for the vent pipe to cross the river.

However, when tanks cross the river like this, they have no combat capability and are very fragile. They must rely on wheeled infantry combat vehicles to establish a stable landing site opposite, so that tanks can cross the river safely.

Now, the crossing of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles has begun.

That set of screw rods was dropped after the last time they crossed the river. They still used propellers for water navigation, and infantry combat vehicles sailed opposite.

"Combustion bottle!" Here, Shaw, who is guarding the river bank, is very worried. His best weapon is the incendiary bottle. He can't even get his grenades together. He can only try his best to buy time.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Seeing the burning bottles thrown down, the German infantry chariots did not hesitate to fire directly with boforth's 40mm chariot guns. Shells went towards the soldiers' hiding place and destroyed it.

This is a suicide attack!

A wheeled infantry fighting vehicle came up from the river wet. When it came into contact with the river bank, it took a lot of time. The front tire splashed on the stones on the river bank for a long time, and the rear propeller worked hard together to climb up.

It's not like a beach here. The two sides are built vertically with stones. It's very difficult, and it's finally coming up, which also represents that Germany is about to open up a landing position on the opposite side!

"Boom!" Just then, a voice sounded here.
