Soviet Union 1991
Main text Chapter 754 Iron Hail
Second update
The sound of artillery fire gradually subsided, and the number of rocket and bomber attacks became much less frequent than before. This relieved General Henry, the commander stationed in Berlin. He received intelligence from the front line that the armored forces that had rushed into Berlin quickly withdrew for unknown reasons. This undoubtedly gave Henry a chance to defend Berlin. .
He was planning to have his troops fortify and hold Berlin until the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment arrived from elsewhere to support him. But he didn't expect that the next order from the high command caught him off guard. Henry ordered to work with the US armored battalion to capture the Cerro Heights and annihilate the retreating German Democratic Republic Army.
He immediately called Scharpin to find out whether the order came from higher up. But Minister Scharpin's answer disappointed him, "Yes, the order was issued personally by Chancellor Kohl. Please ask the German Democratic Republic Army stationed in Berlin to implement the combat plan immediately."
"But what if this is a trap?" Scharpin argued. "Retreating when you are one step away from success must have a more ulterior conspiracy behind it. I hope the command can seriously consider this issue and not Take rash action to avoid falling into the enemy’s trap.”
Scharpin looked at the situation that had finally stabilized and tried to change the thinking of the senior offensive. But all this is in vain.
"The request is rejected. This is Prime Minister Kohl's order and it must be carried out." Minister Scharpin explained to him the reason why the command chose to take the initiative. "According to reliable intelligence from the top brass of the Ministry of Defense, there was a dispute within the German Democratic Ennahda Party. Unrest. This was our only chance, General Henry. It was this civil unrest that caused them to cancel their plans to continue the attack on Berlin."
This time it was Henry's turn to be silent. According to the command's battle plan, he should execute this order unconditionally. In the end, he could only choose to hang up the phone and sighed, "I hope the command's idea is correct, otherwise, the last defenders of Berlin will become the opponent's prey."
According to Henry's rich command experience, he resolutely refused to accept such risky behavior. He would rather miss this opportunity than risk his troops on such a risky behavior. But since this was an order from his superiors, he could only execute it unconditionally.
Before Berlin's defenders could recover from the previous attack, they received another order. Headed to the Cerro Highlands to conduct an operation to encircle and suppress the German Democratic Republic Army.
This is the last armored force. Once destroyed, the Bundeswehr will have nothing left.
The Leopard 2 tanks originally guarding the streets attacked forward, chasing the evacuating armored units. Everyone was confident that they would win the final victory. Including the frontline commanders, at first they thought they would be counterattacked by the other party. But when they discovered that the Bundeswehr troops still encountered no resistance after withdrawing from Berlin, they truly realized that they might actually win.
The M1 tanks and Leopard 2 moved forward together, intending to annihilate the last resistance of the Bundeswehr in the suburbs. Behind them were U.S. artillery battalions as support, using barrages to cover the frontline troops' attack.
"They abandoned Cerro Heights and are continuing to evacuate backwards. This is not a trap."
The frontline commander's report to Henry was like a shot in the chest, immediately boosting the morale of the Bundeswehr. Now that we know that the opponent has declined, we can simply conquer the Cerro Heights in one go and end this nightmare that has been lingering in Berlin for a long time.
M1 tanks and Leopard 2s rushed towards the Cerro Heights under the cover of Apache and Tiger helicopter gunships. When the Soviet army attacked Berlin, they took advantage of the terrain of the Cerro Heights to carry out a fierce attack with rockets and long-range artillery fire. It can be said that Freeing this area from the clutches of the German Democratic Republican Army would be equivalent to the final defeat of the German Democratic Republican Army.
However, what is surprising is that the German Democratic Republic Army did not abandon its armor and suffered a tragic defeat. Troops have been withdrawing in an orderly manner. The evacuation of the troops was silent and orderly. There was no chaos at all because of the US artillery fire and air strikes by fighter jets. The Shilka self-propelled artillery began to spray flames when the armed helicopters approached, and the mm cannons created a picture of death in the air. The network of firepower is insurmountable by anyone.
After losing a third Tiger helicopter, the Bundeswehr ground forces finally stopped their probing attack. This combat force still maintains a terrifying combat effectiveness, and it is definitely not something that the current Bundeswehr can defeat in a surprise attack. A regular national army was actually heavily suppressed by the rebels, and it was able to maintain iron-like discipline and combat capabilities when it was defeated, which was enough to get a glimpse of the terrifying aspect of this German tank.
They are the army that truly inherited everything in Germany.
The pace of the Bundeswehr's offensive began to slow down. They realized that even if this army was defeated and retreated, the armament quality displayed was not what they could match.
Terrible army, and even more terrible East Germany.
The Bundeswehr reached the final Sello Heights, and occupying it meant that the German Democratic Republic Army would be completely driven out of Berlin, marking the end of the Battle of Berlin. However, when everyone stepped onto the high ground out of breath, what appeared in front of them was the already deserted military camp.
The Democratic Republic of China Army did not even set up defenses here, but simply abandoned their baggage and fled to the highlands. Only a group of bewildered Wehrmacht soldiers were left standing on the empty high ground.
There were no tanks, no soldiers, not even a ghost, they had already evacuated from this high ground.
However, the actions of the Federal Wehrmacht were imprinted in the eyes of the German Democratic Republic Army Command. When the front line reported that they had rushed to the high ground, Jonishkis knew that his chance had come.
He had prepared a special fireworks show for them, a hail of steel.
Rockets and long-range artillery were ready.
"Fire."
At Jonishkis's command, the long-range rocket launchers deployed on the position roared towards the previously evacuated Sero Highland. He hit all the artillery units, like a real hail of steel, smashing down on the heads of the joint army.
The sky was full of shining lights, rockets were constantly fired, and the attack never stopped. The entire position was filled with gunpowder smoke after the rockets were launched.
This was the last battle, and Jonishkis wanted all the troops to be buried under the baptism of rockets.
Destroy them!
Leave no armor behind! (To be continued.)
