Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire
Chapter 739 Breakout Battle of Königsberg
At this time, Daxia and his allies had completed the encirclement of the Allied Powers and the Entente Powers.
From East Prussia to Romania and on to North Africa. The first phase of Daxia's war against the Central Powers and the Entente Powers has ended.
At this time, from the beginning of the war in 1931 to now in 1934, the war has lasted for 4 years.
The past four years have been tragic for the entire world. According to incomplete statistics, in these four years, the number of people who died due to war exceeded that of World War I, reaching more than 4000 million people, affecting more than countries and area.
But now, the war has come to an end.
The empire's military front has reached the Allied Powers' homeland.
In late September 1934, the Rakshasa Empire, which had rested and recuperated, once again prepared to launch a counterattack against the Hans Empire.
The Northern Army of the Rakshasa Empire, under the command of Timoshenko, invaded Königsberg, and the Fourth Army of the Hans Empire prepared to defend Königsberg.
General Chernyachowski was responsible for commanding the battle. However, General Chernyachowski was unwilling to fight a protracted urban assault battle with the Hans Empire's Fourth Army, so his attack seemed hesitant.
So the Fourth Army stationed in Königsberg took the opportunity to reorganize the broken troops who retreated from the front line, and formed eight infantry battalions to join the defense of Königsberg.
After Timoshenko learned of this, he called directly to reprimand him. It was only at this time that General Chernyachowski reacted, no longer hesitated, and ordered the troops to directly break the connection between Königsberg and Haili and Bayer.
Completely surrounded the Hans Empire in the isolated city of Konigsberg.
Subsequently, Timoshenko ordered the air force directly under the Northern Army to conduct indiscriminate bombings against Königsberg for many days. Many fires broke out in the city.
After being surrounded for fifteen days, the Fourth Group of the Hans Empire prepared to break out due to logistical supply problems.
But when I chose to break out at this time, it was already too late.
The Hans Empire was short of oil. Especially after Daxia cut off trade with the Allies, the Hans Empire's oil gap became even greater.
There was originally a synthetic fuel plant in the dock of Königsberg.
But Timoshenko was not stupid. He knew that the Hans Empire was short of oil. In order to immobilize the Hans Empire's armored forces, he asked the Northern Army Air Force to blow up the fuel plant first.
Supplies from outside could not come in, and the fuel field within the siege network was bombed again. Then it is destined that the armored units of the Fourth Army will not be able to move.
Things were just as Timoshenko expected. After repeated bombings, the synthetic fuel plant could only produce 5000 liters of fuel per day.
This 5000 liters of fuel may seem like a lot, but in fact, it is only enough to fill 20 tanks.
In order to successfully break through, the Fourth Group allocated all this fuel to the Fifth Armored Division.
Rasch, commander of the Fourth Army of the Hans Empire, knew that the Fifth Armored Division was his best hope for a successful breakout.
On October 1934, 10, Rasch received an order from Gelnik, commander of Zemlan Army Group, requiring him to break out in two days. At that time, he would order Zemlan's divisions to take the initiative to launch an attack to share the pressure for Rasch.
However, this order was deciphered by the Military Statistics Bureau of the Great Xia Emperor and forwarded to the Rakshasa Empire.
After seeing this news, Vladimir III directly asked Timoshenko to stop the Fourth Army.
Because this is the most likely opportunity to annihilate the Hans Empire since the war began and reorganize the group army.
This is crucial to the entire war situation and even the entire world war.
Of course Timoshenko also knew what it meant to annihilate an integrated army.
Therefore, he asked the Northern Army to stop the reinforcements of the Hans Empire and stop the Fourth Army of the Hans Empire in Königsberg.
On the 9th, the Hans Empire launched an attack on Timoshenko as planned, and Timoshenko mobilized the Northern Army to stop the enemy on the spot. And ordered General Chernyachowski to block the Fourth Army's breakout.
Because the plan was intercepted by Daxia, the Zemlan Corps, which was originally assigned to the Fourth Army, did not reach the designated area. This put most of the pressure to break out on the Fourth Army.
Seeing such a scene, Rasch became furious. In addition to the 561th Armored Division and the st Infantry Division, which were originally required to serve as assault forwards, he added the st Grenadier Division, with the strength of three divisions. , wanting to break through the blockade of General Chernyakhovsky.
But by doing this, Lasch weakened the defensive power in other directions. It can be said that this was Lasch's last ditch effort.
If he wins, he can break through the blockade. If he loses, there will be no future.
After all, even if he doesn't do this, what awaits him is to be besieged to death by the Rakshasa Empire.
Then, at about 9 a.m. on the 11th, Rasch started to attack the defense line built by Chernyachowski, using the 561th Armored Division as the arrow and the st Infantry Division and the st Grenadier Division as the two wings.
Chernyachowski knew that the 2th Armored Division had two heavy armor battalions, so he asked Timoshenko for support from a group of large-caliber anti-tank guns.
Timoshenko knew that if he did not provide support to Chernyakhosky, his defense line would be destined to be torn apart by the two heavy armored battalions of the Fifth Army.
After all, at this time, the Rakshasa Empire did not have heavy tanks to compete with it.
Except for Daxia's tanks, Daxia's tanks can compete head-on with the Hans Empire's Tiger tanks and gain an advantage.
Therefore, Timoshenko quickly equipped Chernyakhosky with 12 122 mm heavy anti-tank guns.
Even the entire Northern Army did not have many such anti-tank guns, and Timoshenko gave almost all of them to Chernyakhosky.
It was precisely because of these anti-tank guns that Chernyakhorsky directly destroyed two heavy armor battalions of the 5th Armored Division.
Seeing that the 5th Armored Division, for which he had high hopes, was defeated as soon as it came into contact with Chernyachowski, Rasch knew that he was doomed.
He had no hope of a successful breakout.
Therefore, Lasch, as commander of the Fourth Army, sent a farewell telegram to Gornik and Hans Imperial Ministry of Defense. Then the Fourth Army was ordered to return to Königsberg and defend it.
Gornik knew that Rasch's 5th Armored Division had been defeated, and he also knew that Rasch would not come back. So after he sent a telegram to Lasch to say goodbye, he withdrew the Zemlan Group, which was still attacking, and began to move towards Danze. In the hope of building a new line of defense in Danze.
But his idea was destined to fail, because Timoshenko did not give him this opportunity at all.
When Zemlan Group Army retreated, Timoshenko asked the Northern Army to pursue it, and directly pursued Zemlan Group Army without giving Zemlan Group a chance to breathe.
It wasn't until they caught up to the vicinity of Pvoti and encountered reinforcements coming from the Hans Empire itself that it was over.
