The Soviet army's short-lived victory only brought less than ten days of peace. The Romanian army quickly regrouped its forces, and with the cooperation of some German troops, it cleared the fortifications outside the city. The left and right wings formed an encirclement, which was gradually compressed. Many troops entered the city, and the Romanian army's artillery fire began day and night. Constantly bombarding every inch of urban Odessa.
On October 12, the Romanian army assembled all its forces and launched the final general offensive against the Soviet troops in Odessa. The remaining Soviet Red Army troops in the city, with the support of the citizens, fought the final battle with the Romanian army. Every building and room has become a brutal battlefield. After several days of fierce fighting, only the port of Odessa was still in Soviet hands. On October 16, as the last Soviet destroyer sailed away from the port, the defending Soviet army lost its last artillery cover, but the only remaining Soviet platoon was still blocking the Roman army in a port fortress. These last defenders of Odessa fulfilled their final duty for the Soviet Union. At four o'clock in the afternoon, under heavy artillery bombardment, the fortress was completely destroyed. That night, the Romanian army captured the entire city of Odessa.
The Battle of Odessa was launched with almost all the strength of the Romanian army, and can also be regarded as the strongest blow of the Romanian army in World War II. Lin Wei almost immediately wanted to contact Marshal Antonescu after receiving the news to congratulate him, but considering his current situation, it seemed inappropriate to do so, so he had to give up. However, the success of the battle still made Lin Wei think about many problems. Lin Wei once thought that Germany's mobilization of four million troops, plus the troops of other allied countries, were enough to push the Soviet Union. Even if it was worse, the Soviet Union would be unable to fight back within half a year. Chance. But facts have proved that Russia cannot use common sense to speculate. Even after three million soldiers entered the prisoner-of-war camp, they are still very active. Lin Wei has not received Stalin's intention to compromise so far.
Lin Wei never doubted that the final victory belonged to Germany, but there was a basic question. How much price did Germany have to pay to win the war? In Lin Wei's eyes, as long as 1.5 million adult men in Germany died, this war would be over. It would be better not to fight the war. He didn't want to see the introduction of immigrants because of Germany's lack of labor force. Having the experience of visiting forums in his previous life, Lin Wei knew that there would be more and more Green Christians in Europe in the next few decades, and it had become a problem for many countries. There is only one way to prevent Germany from lacking adult men due to the war. When the Soviet Union is uncompromising, Germany must bring in enough countries to share the risk with Germany. This means that Europe must work together to destroy the Soviet Union.
"The current depth of cooperation is still far from enough!" Lin Wei walked around in the room, which was only five square meters at best, and unnaturally took out another cigarette from his pocket, "It seems that in recent times The addiction to smoking is getting bigger and bigger, so we must control it!" After mumbling to himself, Lin Wei used practical actions to prove that the road to quitting smoking is long. If you don't have perseverance, you won't have to think about quitting smoking in the end.
Exhaling a big smoke ring with a satisfied look, Lin Wei continued to think along the lines of thought. Eastern European countries and the Soviet Union had territorial disputes. It would not be difficult to get them to use more power by riding on Germany's coattails, especially now that Germany When the situation is excellent. Finland? That's not a problem, Türkiye? It's the same type as Finland. The difficulty is that these are all small countries. The truly powerful countries in Europe are all in Western Europe. How to get France, Britain, Belgium, and the Netherlands to participate in the war is the main problem. Oh, I forgot, there is also the Nordic lion Sweden. people.
"There is no way to seduce them with territory. They are not bordering the Soviet Union! What should we do?" Soon only the butt was left in a cigarette. The problem that troubled Lin Wei was still clueless. "It would be great if my father were here!" ..." Lin Wei shook his head and sighed, but immediately gave up this terrible idea. Lin Wei is now in the encirclement, although this encirclement is not very strong in Lin Wei's eyes.
"Leader, the battle at the intersection is still going on. The battle between the police division and the Dzerzhinsky division is still raging. It seems that Beria's secret police force is still, ahem..., still tenacious..." accompanied by the sound of the door opening. , Crawford's voice also came in, Lin Wei decisively put out the cigarette butt, but still finished the step, and Crawford, who did not smoke, became Lin Wei's victim again.
Lin Wei touched his hair that had not been washed for two days. He did not have any criminal consciousness at all. He said innocently, "It seems that Stalin is not too bad? He even created a group of secret police outside the Red Army. This is the Red Army." Guoguo’s plagiarism! I will hold him accountable! I will go to the international court to sue them!”
"Leader, can you quit smoking? This will make it difficult for me to do my job!" Crawford said with a dark look on his face. He had already experienced Lin Wei's chimney-like addiction to smoking, but Lin Wei's addiction to smoking during this period It grew geometrically. Every time he came to Lin Wei's room, Crawford felt like he had passed through a gas chamber. Looking at Lin Wei's intoxicated expression, Crawford had to admit that growing up in Essen, known as the Chimney City, was indeed extraordinary.
"Oh, it has been scientifically proven that smoking second-hand smoke is more harmful than smoking yourself, so Crawford!" Lin Wei said sincerely after a round of nonsense, "You should also smoke, so that your work can be carried out more easily. For For your health, you don’t have to be smoked every day!”
"Leader, our current situation is very unfavorable. Let's talk about the plan for the next stage!" Crawford couldn't resist Lin Wei's strong words and said helplessly, "After the war is over, I request to be transferred!"
"That happened after the war!" Lin Wei said while looking at the map without raising his head. One hundred and eighty thousand SS troops were compressed in two locations. South of the Volokolamsk Highway, most of the SS troops were concentrated here, and north of the Volokolamsk Highway, only the Viking Division From Khimki rushed into Moscow. The Dzerzhinsky Division of the Soviet Internal Guard is stationed at the intersection of Volokolamsk Highway and Baltica Street.
The Police Division has been dealing with the Dzerzhinsky Division for a day, but there has been little progress. It can be seen that the Dzerzhinsky Division is far from being comparable to the ordinary Soviet Red Army troops. Now most of the SS troops have been compressed. This is very detrimental to a large corps around the October Stadium. It is simply unrealistic to rely on the air force for long-term supplies. What's more, even if Goering fully ensures the supply of the SS, the SS cannot be compressed here. The reason is that according to the density of the October Stadium, when a burst of artillery fire comes, the SS will not know how many soldiers will die.
The Khimkihovli Tower and the October Stadium must be connected so that the situation of the SS will be significantly improved. Otherwise, once the Soviet Red Army concentrates enough artillery, the SS will be doomed. The unlucky Sixth The group army was directly possessed, and Lin Wei did not have such a great character to guarantee the safety of the SS.
"The battle plan for the 19th..." Lin Wei's eyes finally left the map and said in a deep voice, "Let the police division continue to contain the Dzerzhinsky division, use the military police division and the skeleton division as the main assault force to break through Voloko. Ramsk Highway, and at the same time let the Viking Division go south to cooperate with the operation, and open the Volokolamsk Highway for a north-south pincer attack at the same time. We can control the entire northwest area of Moscow. Moreover, in this way, Volokolamsk Highway and Polo The intersection between the streets has lost its role as a hub. I believe that the Dzerzhinsky Division will retreat on its own when the time comes. Give the police division an order. If this happens, look for opportunities to attack Dzerzhinsky. Division, by the way, show the plan to General Paul Hausser and ask him to revise it!" Even so, Lin Wei had a hunch that the entanglement between the SS and Dzerzhinsky's division It may not end so early.
Crawford quickly took Lin Wei's words to heart, and then exited Lin Wei's room with a raised hand. As soon as he entered and exited, the thick fog in the room suddenly dispersed a lot. Lin Wei touched his nose and felt guilty. Said, "Is it really so choking...".
Early on the morning of the 19th, the Military Police Division and the Skeleton Division, which were ordered to carry out the attack, had arrived at the scheduled location. Admiral Paul Hausser recognized Lin Wei's plan and highly praised his former students. After two years of study, Lin Wei was finally recognized by General Paul Hausser. The Volokolamsk Highway was defended by the First Guards Division and the Second Guards Division of the Soviet Union. The Guards in 1941 were far less effective than in 1944 to 1945. At this time, the Soviet Red Army suffered heavy casualties. Maybe after a battle, the soldiers in the army will be replaced. There is no development at all, but the troops with the title of Guards are more loyal, and at this difficult time, loyalty is also very important.
Fortunately, Lin Wei, who had been having trouble entering Moscow, finally waited for a sunny day, which meant that the SS could finally get strong support from the air force. At this moment, Lin Wei, who had been tortured by the humidity and fog in Russia, saw the sun Almost bursting into tears, "God help me, I will blow these bastards into outer space. Oh, Virgin Mary, please forgive me!" Lin Wei muttered incoherently.
At seven o'clock in the morning, General Kesselin's Second Air Force took off from Smolensk Airport, overcame numerous obstacles and braved the interception of Soviet anti-aircraft artillery units, and appeared in the sky above Moscow. This was not a good signal. Marshal Timoshenko immediately judged that this was to support the 5th SS Panzer Army, so he ordered the anti-aircraft artillery unit to intercept and at the same time let the Guards guarding the Volokolamsk Highway first and the Second Division were prepared to defend against a possible attack.
