Nine Hundred and Seventy-Eight Orders
?
Be quiet, be quiet, the final decision to be made must be made with determination. After a long while, Stalin couldn't wait for the answer he wanted, and finally took the huge black pot on his own. He spoke slowly, as if exhausting all his strength: "Order Govorov's troops to continue going south, clear the way, and enter Moscow!"
After taking a deep breath, Vatutin felt his back was drenched with sweat. Now that Stalin had made his final decision, he didn't have to say anything else. In recent meetings, a group of politicians persuaded Stalin to retreat to Chelyabinsk, but Stalin himself vetoed this issue, so Vatutin stood up and prepared to leave Stalin's office.
Not knowing whether it was the flashback of a dying person or the mental confusion before his mind collapsed, Stalin suddenly spoke and stopped Vatutin: "Comrade Vatutin, I want to know. From the professional point of view of a military general, order Ge Is Vorov's decision to break out and reinforce Moscow correct?"
Vatutin smiled wryly, knowing that after all, he still did not escape the bad luck of being involved in this matter. He turned around, walked in front of Stalin, and replied softly: "The great leader, Comrade Stalin... It is extremely unrealistic to try to use infantry to outrun the German armored forces in the field. The retreat will eventually lead to failure." For a rout, this scenario was confirmed when the Ukrainian campaign was lost."
He paused and then continued: "It is not a wise move to let infantry attack the German heavy armored group in the wild. We have not had a successful record of breaking out of an encirclement in actual combat to this day. So no matter what is ordered Such an order, for the Govorov group, can only be resigned to fate."
Stalin didn't know why he fell silent. He didn't let Vatutin leave, and he didn't ask him any other questions. He just sat there silently, without even looking at Vatutin.
Just when Vatutin didn't know what to do, Stalin suddenly broke out. He beat the luxurious solid wood desk in front of him, and roared hysterically: "Akado is a liar! His so-called aid It's all a shameful deception! The damned Germans have been planning to invade the Soviet Union from the very beginning, but our intelligence service is like a blind man, blinded! blinded!"
While swearing, he swept away the piles of documents on the table. Vatutin scanned the confidential documents that fell to the ground with his corner of the eye. something caused.
The scattered documents are all kinds of things: including the remaining few battleships of the Soviet-class battleship, the guns exploded and the boiler exploded; the giant railway gun developed as a Soviet super weapon was just a pile of unusable scrap iron; Submarines have no ocean-going capabilities at all, and they can’t wait for the German Navy to come... A lot of fake and empty weapon cooperation projects like this are a waste of the Soviet Union’s not-so-abundant fund reserves, but they can’t play any role at all when the war comes .
More than half of the lathes aided by Germany also have trained workers,
They were all recaptured by the German army at the beginning of the war, and those Ukrainian workers immediately defected and became the German production force, adding bricks and tiles to the German army's equipment for the invasion of the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union hadn't kept an eye out and built some industrial bases in Chelyabinsk independently, the current Soviet Union would almost be over.
The construction of railways, roads and even airports now seems to be using Soviet money to pave the way for the rapid advancement of German mechanized troops. The national sentiment that was secretly incited and expanded, now that I think about it, it was completely premeditated. Germany’s invasion of the Soviet Union was a huge systematic project, and it is ridiculous that most of it was completed with the help of the Soviets themselves.
Vatutin didn't even bother to listen to Stalin's complaints there. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and he was shocked by Germany's series of strategic deployments against the Soviet Union. Every link was pre-arranged, and then interlocking and finally helped the German army win today's victory-the earliest plan even started around 1925. This is how much we need to understand the Soviet Union's clear goals to pre-design such a set of precise To the incredible "invasion foreshadowing plan"?
Vatutin suddenly thought of some intelligence, which was investigating the German leader Akado. The man known as the Führer was called a gift from God to Germany by the German people, and some even claimed that the Führer could see the future. At that time, Vatutin still felt that the Germans were too ignorant and ignorant, but now he found that this man who was called God's gift could only be explained by God's gift.
Why? Why wasn't such a great leader born in the Soviet Union? For a moment, such an idea popped up in Vatutin's mind. What he didn't know was that before he had this idea, this idea had appeared in the minds of British generals and American generals.
"And Khrushchev! And that bastard Voroshilov! Their poor command made us lose the war with the greatest advantage!" Stalin clenched his fist and waved it back and forth, as if holding Yes, just like the soul of Khrushchev: "These bastards know how to ask me for credit, but they don't have any real skills! We were supposed to win the Polish war, but we were defeated by these two idiots! "
He finished cursing the dead Soviet veterans, and insulted the German spy Marshal Tukhachevsky who was executed by him. Then he complained about Khrushchev and Voroshilov, and then blamed Zhukov, his subordinate Konev Vasilev, and the rebellious Rokossovsky.
In short, he felt that a group of incompetent subordinates ruined the great future of the Soviet Union. In short, he felt that he was dragged down by those bastards who were good at deceiving and disguising-but he did not summarize any of his mistakes, even being easily deceived by others. There is no mention of the non-painful shirk sentence.
It was like a dissatisfied boudoir who was abandoned by others. At this moment, Stalin lost the resolute leadership temperament, but he was like a full-fledged little daughter-in-law. He kept complaining and insulting, not to solve the problem or think of a way, but simply to vent. And the only listener in front of him, His Excellency Vatutin, Commander of the Moscow Defense District, was also wandering away, not paying attention to what Stalin was saying. So the two of them vented there alone, and the other was distracted there, and they looked like a perfect pair of partners.
At this moment, Stalin was completely immersed in his sad and angry emotions, and he didn't even care whether Vatutin listened to his roar. Finally, he calmed down, and then looked at Vatutin in front of him with somewhat absent-minded eyes. He said calmly: "Go! Let Govorov continue to go south. Even if you can't break through the encirclement of the German army, it is good to contain the German army north of Moscow."
After wandering around for a while, lamenting Akador's invincibility and the luck of the German generals, Vatutin withdrew his thoughts just right at this time, so he quickly stood at attention and saluted, and answered Stalin's decision: "Observe! Great leader, Comrade Stalin! I will convey this decision of yours to the telegraph room."
"Go! I very much hope to see General Govorov and the troops he brought in Moscow as soon as possible." Stalin waved his hand, indicating that Vatutin could leave. When Vatutin left the office, Stalin Silently lit his own pipe with a match.
After waiting for 4 hours, General Govorov finally waited for the order from Moscow. Unsurprisingly, Stalin issued an order to let his troops continue to move south. With a wry smile, he firmly carried out this seemingly unwise order.
40 minutes later, the vanguard of the Soviet army launched a tentative attack on Tver, but they were met with fierce counterattacks by German armored forces on the outskirts of the city. Seventeen German tanks fired violently, repelling the light infantry who lacked heavy weapon support for a full 7 kilometers before stopping the pursuit.
The attacking Red Army division suffered heavy losses, with about 900 soldiers killed or captured. The Soviet army, who had discarded their helmets and armor, retreated along the road in embarrassment, smashing the logistics troops behind and the infantry of another division, and barely stopped.
It's ridiculous that the Soviet army didn't even know how big the German army was despite the heavy losses. The entire Leningrad group has now become a frightened bird. They are exhausted and lack of supplies. There is no way to fight to the death with the high morale of the German army.
"We have to wait for the artillery from behind to come up before we can officially start the attack. Even if only the vanguard of the German army reaches the outskirts of Tver, we have nothing to do." Govorov sighed helplessly: "Because the vanguard of the German army, Far more capable than our own vanguard."
As a result, almost half a million Soviet infantry stopped in the area north of Tver, waiting helplessly for their artillery to move into the front line to launch an attack-at the same time, they were also waiting for their opponents, German armored forces fortified their lines.
Later that day, the main force of the 2nd Panzer Corps of the Wehrmacht passed through the center of Tver and crossed the road of the Soviet Red Army heading south. The Soviet army, who had been chased by 17 German tanks for several kilometers, was horrified to find that there were more than 300 German tanks in front of them.
