The equipment of the U.S. artillery is basically motorized. It is towed by American trucks. Anyway, this 105mm howitzer is not very heavy.

At this time, the artillery were sitting on the truck, their eyes still staring at the sky nervously.

They were deployed to the position, but they did not fire. Now they withdraw from the position without firing a single shot.

It's not that they are afraid to fight. They just want to protect these cannons and better provide artillery support for their own side. The hs129 attack aircraft flying overhead are really terrible. Once they fire, they will become the targets of those attack aircraft.

Fortunately, the attack aircraft only wanted to attack the Soviet positions, especially to kill the soldiers hiding in the crater and preparing to ambush. They didn't find them secretly withdrawing at all.

At this time, their heart is heavy. Everyone knows what will happen on the front line. Now, no matter how many reasons they have, they are always deserters.

They abandoned their companions and retreated alone.

With 12 guns and other support vehicles, a total of 22 trucks retreated towards the rear. On the front truck, the driver could clearly see the bridge on the river in the distance.

At this time, suddenly, in the sky behind him, there was the scream of a sharp engine. Suddenly, everyone felt the cold on their back.

"Drive down the road and into the grove!"

On one side of the road, there was a forest of white birch trees. Just after hearing the roar of the plane, all the drivers were quick eyed and quick handed, hugged the steering wheel, and the Wanguo truck drove off the road and bumped in an instant.

Come on, come on, be sure to enter the woods before the other plane is found!

The terrified artillery looked up at the sky. Now, they are familiar with all kinds of German aircraft. The terrible hs129 came. The two engines on both wings and the iconic 40mm cannon in front of the nose are so clear. This German attack aircraft shows a kind of violent aesthetics.

It's no use shooting small caliber light weapons at this kind of aircraft. On the contrary, once found by this kind of attack aircraft, the end will be very tragic. This kind of attack opportunity shoots wildly at the ground, just like a harvester, harvesting all life on the ground. The cannon under the terrible nose can even open the top cover of the tank directly.

If you find your own team, as long as the other party lowers its nose and shoots a shuttle of 40mm high explosive bombs, you will be destroyed. It's really terrible.

Fortunately, the several hs129 that flew in didn't seem to find them. They seemed to turn a blind eye to them and flew over their heads. When the plane flew over, everyone saw the huge bomb mounted on the midline of the belly.

"No, they went to blow up the bridge!" At this time, the battalion commander of the artillery battalion suddenly reacted. The Germans were so resourceful.

Once the Germans blow up the bridge here, no one can escape the troops still defending in the north of the city. They will all be eaten by the Germans. That's the idea!

"Come on, radio, send a message and inform the headquarters that the Germans are going to blow up the bridge!"

When they came here, they were equipped with a Soviet radio station with the same password mechanism, which can directly contact their superiors. At the same time, the telegraph soldiers are still a few of the troops who can speak Russian.

Just before the telegraph soldiers set up the radio, the hs129 attack aircraft had begun to dive towards the bridge.

There is an infantry squad guarding the bridge. They are more used to prevent deserters. Soldiers without orders can't retreat. Now, when the attack aircraft in the sky dive down, everyone shoots in vain with their rifles.

of no avail.

When hs129 was pulled up again, the bridge below had already emitted billowing black smoke, the middle part had completely collapsed, and the fierce water flow immediately washed away the rest.

The bridge was blown up!

There are four bridges across the river. Hs129 attack aircraft blew up each bridge orderly along the river.

As soon as the bridge was broken, the soldiers still fighting in front were surrounded. Under the attack of German tanks, they had no other way to go except death and surrender.

At the same time, the 442 infantry regiment, which originally planned to withdraw, was unable to complete the scheduled task and objectives because of the bombing of the bridge. They could not return to the main urban area, and they would usher in their own destruction.

Command.

When he received the news, konev's face was extremely ugly.

Konev was going to blow up the bridge, but definitely not now.

Let the 442 infantry regiment withdraw back and deploy defense along the river bank, especially their artillery battalion. They can bombard the German army opposite at any time, so that they can't cross the river smoothly, so as to prolong their holding time.

Now, before they withdraw, the bridge was blown up by the Germans!

In addition to the fact that the troops needed by our side have not retreated, there are more terrible things.

Aren't the Germans going to cross the river? Aren't the Germans going to occupy Kalinin? Of course not. If the Germans want to attack Moscow, they must beat Kalinin.

Now, the Germans blew up the bridge on the river, there is only one possibility. The Germans must have started from the lower reaches of the river!

Our defense against the Germans was originally intended to rely on this river as a natural graben, but now, once the Germans rush from the east of our side, our side can't guard against it at all.

The fortifications on the streets are also arranged to the north. Moreover, the young people in the city have just started, and there is no specific deployment. If the Germans rush up at once, Kalinin will not be able to keep it!

As if to confirm his conjecture, at this time, a terrible shelling came from the east of the city.

"Germans, Germans are coming from the East!" The amazing news was immediately sent back to the headquarters.

The Kalinin front army is understaffed.

It's not that Moscow doesn't pay attention to Kalinin, but because Moscow has limited manpower, all those who can be sent out have been sent out, and all directions are tight. Transferring the new force of American reinforcements to Kalinin is already the greatest support for Kalinin.

Due to the shortage of troops, konev had to deploy the main force in the north to fight with the Germans. At the same time, he called on the citizens to take action and jointly defend the city. However, they were concentrated in the north of the city, and the East and South were quite empty.

What are the Germans waiting for these days? Of course, not only grid armor, but also troop redeployment!
