USSR 1941

  Chapter 706 Attack from both sides

After finishing, Shulka used the radio to contact the brigade headquarters. After all, the brigade headquarters is the immediate boss of the 82nd Infantry Regiment. Shulka has kept the radio silent since the implementation of this plan... This is because he is worried that the position will be found by the enemy. After all, the risk of this plan is only whether the enemy knows it or not, as long as there is a little bit of wind, it is very likely that the entire army will be wiped out.

  So Shulka didn't dare to be careless.

As soon as the radio was turned on, several telegrams came immediately, most of which were from the brigade headquarters asking about the location and the situation. It seems that Khrushchev's secrecy measures were also done well, and he did not tell the brigade headquarters what he guessed ...Normal should be like this, because there are many German spies in the Soviet army, and it doesn't make much sense to tell the brigade headquarters.

  As soon as the radio station was connected, the brigade headquarters immediately sent a telegram from the brigade commander Gerasilov, and his anger could be seen between the lines: "Where are you? Who ordered you to attack?!"

   "Report!" Shulka replied: "We are in Prodovitoye!"

   "Come right back!" Gerasilov ordered: "Who told you to attack Prodovitoye?"

   "It may not be so easy to go back!" Shulka replied: "Because we are at the Prodovitoye train station!"

   "The train station?" Gerasilov asked suspiciously: "You mean you are at the train station? Inside Prodovitoye?"

   "Yes!" Shulka replied: "We are surrounded by enemies, we have occupied and controlled the railway station! We are surrounded...or we can also say that we have penetrated their interior!"

Then Shulka stopped paying attention to him. What Shulka didn't know was that Gerasilov wanted to make use of it... He vaguely knew what Shulka and Khrushchev had planned, but he didn't believe Shulka What kind of big waves can be turned out in this situation, so I want to know the answer urgently and then it will become evidence for him to sue.

  However, the results obtained shocked Gerasilov.

   "They actually occupied the train station!" Gerasilov said in an incredible tone.

   "What? What train station?" Viktorovich asked puzzled.

   "Plodovitoye Railway Station!" Gerasilov said: "The 82nd Infantry Regiment... broke into the enemy's center!"

  Victorovich opened his mouth wide in surprise and couldn't close it for a long time.

  Although he knew that the "breakout hero" was always full of wit and unconventional routes, he didn't expect that he would directly break into the enemy's interior!

   "How did they do it?" Viktorovich asked. "Are they okay? I mean...casualties!"

  Victorovich actually wanted to know if his son was safe. If he forced his way into the enemy's interior to occupy the train station, he would probably have suffered more than half of the casualties.

   "I don't know!" Gerasilov replied, at this time he still couldn't believe it: "He hasn't answered yet!"

   Shulka had no time to answer because he was in contact with Khrushchev.

   "We have captured the railway station, Comrade Khrushchev!" Shulka sent a brief telegram: "The offensive can begin!"

   When Khrushchev received this telegram, he couldn't help shouting: "Great, this guy!"

   Then he laughed loudly, and ordered: "Immediately order, all the troops besieging Prodovitoye launch a general attack, repeat, general attack!"

"yes!"

  The troops surrounding Prodovitoye had received Khrushchev's order to prepare for the general offensive before this, so they consciously accumulated strength.

  As soon as the order was received at this time, all kinds of artillery fire slammed into the Romanian army's defense line, and then launched a violent attack from several sides at the same time.

At this time, the internal command system in Prodovitoje was basically in a state of semi-paralysis... Most of the commanders were captured by Shurka at the train station. Among them, Atanaser, the chief of the general staff, was a key figure in the command. He was captured Many decision-making issues cannot be dealt with.

  It would be fine if the Roman command knew that Atanasai had been captured by the enemy and could not be rescued, so they could appoint another commander to make decisions.

The problem is that the whereabouts of Atanaser are only unknown to them. At this time, the Romanian Army Command thought that the problems at the train station were only caused by guerrillas. Some even thought that the "German troops" rushing out of the train station were going to the front Combat.

  Such things happened in all directions. The various battalions rushing out from the railway station often occupied various important locations of the Roman army...transportation centers, bunkers, warehouses, and ammunition depots without fighting.

  The reason is very simple. Romanian soldiers took it for granted that these "German troops" were their allies. After all, they were wearing German military uniforms and came from the inside.

   Then one by one amazing results were reported to Shulka's command:

   "Our Ministry has occupied the Red Flag Square!"

   "The bus station controlled by our Ministry!"

   "Our troops arrived at the ammunition depot, and the enemy did not resist!"

  …

  So, none of what Shulka was worried about happened. There was no enemy besieging the train station, and there was no problem of insufficient ammunition to use Romanian equipment.

  At this time Khrushchev sent a telegram: "How is the situation?"

   Shulka replied: "You should tell them to move faster, Comrade Khrushchev! We are almost occupying the whole of Plodovitoye!"

   Khrushchev laughed again, and called back: "No army is faster than you, Comrade Shulka! You are our hero, and the 82nd Infantry Regiment is our pride!"

   Needless to say, the next battle situation.

  The Romanian army, which was attacked from inside and outside and lost its command, ammunition and supplies, and even the main traffic road in the city in an instant, was defeated and surrendered in large numbers.

   This is not to say that the Romanian army is weak in willpower, as it would be the case with the German army.

They were completely stunned. The building that was still in their own hands a second ago suddenly set up a few machine guns and fired wildly at Chen Yang. Even though their troops were behind them, they fired shells and shells. One feels that the whole city is full of enemies and no road will work.

  So Chen Chen has only one choice, surrender.

  Although the encirclement circle of the Soviet army only surrounded three sides.

  The battle took one hour and twenty minutes. The reason why it took so long was because the Soviet army needed to find out the Romanian soldiers who were hiding in every corner of the city in the dark.

   This is not difficult, because there are many Soviet civilians in Prodovitoyeri, and they will take Soviet soldiers to surround the enemy hiding in their homes.

   In the end, even the Prodovitoye command could not escape. The 82nd Infantry Regiment launched a surprise attack based on the exact address and harvested a group of officers.
