The Third Reich

Chapter 909: Last moment

The 27th Infantry Regiment was the first to arrive. Behind them, there were other infantry regiments and artillery belonging to the division.

Now, they can only hit the Soviets by surprise. The action tonight seems to be huge. In fact, if the Soviets were not scared, they should know that there are only a thousand people on their side.

It is impossible to completely eat the 44th Division. If they attack too violently, they will scare the Soviets away at any time.

For the Soviets, the biggest enemy is not the Finns, but the severe cold weather. Let the weather be Finland’s helper to punish these hateful invaders!

The stove in the tent was still burning. The Finns who were accustomed to this climate soon fell asleep, while the mountain teachers were still excited.

Royce closes his eyes, and today’s scene can appear. In the deafening sound of artillery, the Soviet tank, as if paper, has a hit rate of over 50%. Killed more than 20 Finns tanks!

"Go to sleep." Beside Royce, Aalto said: "Here, every day is Christmas, and we give gifts to the Soviets every night."

Now, Royce remembered that today, it really seems to be Christmas!

39 years are about to pass, and 40 years are coming soon.

At Christmas, everyone hopes to receive Christmas gifts. According to legend, Santa Claus gave it to him. Santa Claus comes from the remote Arctic Circle. In fact, it is Finland.

Now Finland is using Santa’s fraternity to send gifts and greetings to the Soviets.

It is winter. For Finland, the night time in winter is very long, but the time of day is quite short. If you reach the Arctic Circle, you will hardly see the sun rise and you will be in the long polar night. .

Every long night is quite difficult.

"Commander, Division 163 sent us a request, hoping that we will continue to advance and rescue them." At this time, beside the cold Latai Highway, the Soviet army was still defending.

Hearing this telegram, Vinogradov kept shaking his head: "Impossible, tell them that we are now being besieged by a large number of Finnish troops, ask them to move closer to us and make a passage!"

It has been several days, and the 44th Division has suffered casualties every day. Sometimes, the Finnish offensive is quite fierce. This convinced Vinogradov that he was surrounded by the main force of the Finnish army.

If you continue to move forward, it is definitely a huge trap. At this time, you should let the 163 division jump out of the encirclement and join the 44 division!

Vinogradov didn't know that his waiting day by day was ruining the last hope of the troops.

After saying this, he raised the curtain of the tent angrily and looked outside.

The bonfire was burning. By the side of the fire, the soldiers were picking up the lunch box with branches and roasting on the bonfire. Inside the lunch box, there was snow that had not melted yet.

"Master, our cooking wagons were all destroyed by the enemy. Now, our soldiers can only boil water and drink for warmth."

"What about the back? Isn't there a new cooking wagon to add? Isn't even a few cauldrons transported?" Vinogradov knew that if this continues, his troops will really be over.

"An hour ago, our transport convoy was ambushed again. Fortunately, the truck that transported the black bread arrived. Otherwise, our troops will run out of food today. Commander, I suggest that we carry out ration control. Break, we will collapse immediately."

Since I arrived here, there has been no stable day. Every day is a continuous attack. The night here is too long. Every night, they don’t know how many attacks there will be, and they don’t know if they can see the next day. sun.

Supplies are often interrupted. They are all like this. The 163 division they are going to rescue may have run out of food long ago.

"Master, shall we retreat first?"

Hearing this voice, Vinogradov was even more angry: "No, of course you can't retreat!"

If he wants to retreat at this time, his life will be over.

The sun, just a few hours after rising, went down again, and night came again.

In the snow-capped mountains, an army is advancing fast in the mountains. They are like flying cuckoos, shuttled in the snow. Everyone is a veteran skier.

"Where are we going?" someone asked while paddling.

Aalto turned his head and saw the familiar Royce, he couldn't help but replied: "It should be Haukila Town."

The New Year’s bell has not yet struck. It is now the last day of 39 years. When the sky was still bright, they saw the arrival of a new army. The artillery that came with horses and camels was already in place!

After these few days of constant harassment, the 44th Division is already at the end of the battle.

The time of the general offensive was chosen to this day as a New Year’s gift, and the first battle of this general offensive was at the very end of the Soviet army, the town of Haukila!

The town of Haukira is located on the main traffic road, surrounded by mountains. It is the place where one man is in charge of the world. As long as the town of Haukira is controlled, it will block the way home for the 44th Division.

In the past, there was no immediate action on Haukila Town. If it was blocked, the 44th Division would definitely be trapped and fighting. In this way, not only would it not be able to complete the task of annihilation, I am afraid that there would be more casualties.

Finland has a small population, but it can't be lost like this.

As the 44th Division is constantly tortured by the cold ~www.novelhall.com~ until now exhausted, it is the last moment.

In order to seize the town of Haokira, the 27th JR Infantry Regiment, the most powerful in Finland, dispatched the 1st Battalion, led by Captain Heinault Rasila. At the same time, with the cooperation of the German army, they carried recoilless guns. Fire support.

In many battles, the 75mm recoilless gun has been verified as the most convenient combat weapon for the mountain division. It is powerful and lighter. It can attack tough, tanks, and infantry. It is simply a versatile!

In the past few days, Royce is also familiar with the nearby terrain. Now, they are shuttled between the woods, and they are rushing to the last strategic point!

The night in Finland is cold, and in the gloomy forest, they glide silently in the cold.

Finally, when the bell struck midnight for half an hour, they stopped.

In front is the town of Haukira, and you can even see the Soviet sentry standing guard by the road outside the town.

The time to do it!
