"Bastards, why did you take our weapons away?" An Italian officer looked at the Germans in front of him and roared madly.

"We need to reorganize you. Please obey the order. This is the order of the Southern Theater Command, and it has the signature of your marshal."The German soldier in front of him took out a telegram and said in a calm tone.

Hearing this, the Italian officer's face changed, staring at the telegram intently, and saw that it did have the signature of Marshal Graziani.

"How is this possible? How is this possible? Why did the marshal issue such an order? This must be a forgery."The Italian officer still couldn't believe it.

"Take him away." For this stubborn person, the German officer waved his hand and signaled his subordinates to take him away.

"September 17th"Everyone obey our orders and accept reorganization, otherwise you will be annihilated on the spot." After saying that, the German soldiers behind him stepped forward and loaded their guns.

After the Italian soldiers looked at each other, they threw away their equipment and chose to accept reorganization.

Of course, a small number of Italian soldiers resisted, but they were all wiped out.

On the other side, Kharkov is the second largest city in Ukraine and the largest industrial and transportation center.

It has changed hands three times, and both sides have paid millions of lives to fight for it. Although it is still in the hands of the German army, according to intelligence, the Soviet army has once again assembled heavy troops to prepare to retake it.

The original commander here was Manstein, but later he was replaced by Model, because compared with Manstein's group, Model's group is more suitable for defense

"Commander, the Supreme Command has ordered us to abandon Kharkov. The Soviet army has assembled more than 3,000 tanks and is heading straight here."Commander, Marshal Model received the order from the Supreme Command, pondered for a while, and decisively ordered all troops to retreat.

Three thousand tanks are definitely not something he can stop at the moment.

Now the troops on the Eastern Front are resting, replenishing supplies, and receiving new equipment.

They are still in the running-in stage and their combat effectiveness is not strong, so the Soviet army seized this opportunity to launch another attack.

Model could only choose to retreat first.

Anyway, the Supreme Command had issued an order not to care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, and to focus on destroying the enemy's living forces.

Because, according to intelligence, the Soviet army is also coming soon.

The Soviets had reached their limit, and many fields had been abandoned and no one was planting.

As long as there were a few more large-scale battles and more Soviet troops were eliminated, their logistics supply would be in a desperate situation.

Even if they had the logistics supply of the US military, the speed would be much slower, and it would be much easier to annihilate the Soviet army at that time.

On this side, the Model Group had just evacuated, and on the other side, the Soviet Voronezh Front with the 5th and 6th Guards Armies, the 5th Guards Tank Army, and the 1st Tank Army.

As well as the 53rd, 69th and 7th Guards Groups of the Steppe Front The 1st Mechanized Army and the 3rd Army Group took the lead in attacking Kharkov, and in just half a day, they completely occupied the entire city.

The Bryansk Front also led the 3rd and 63rd Army Groups, the 61st Army Group, the 1st Guards Tank Army and the 20th Tank Army to chase Model's retreating troops.

At the same time, the Soviet long-range aviation and night bombing aviation also carried out long-term large-scale bombing of the German-occupied areas near Kharkov day and night.

Unfortunately, the bombing did not find the main German position. The bombing was not very effective because the main force of Model's group retreated to a safe place. After Model's group retreated to a safe place , he immediately began to check the armored division that had just been incorporated into his group. After the inspection, Model was very satisfied and praised:

"Hey! General Aite! The armored divisions you trained are very good, I am very satisfied! The Supreme Command is very generous this time!"

"You praise me too much, Marshal Model. My contribution is just a small one, not worth mentioning. This time the Supreme Command was really generous and deployed the most advanced tanks, which are very powerful...."Major General At said very modestly

"You are being too modest. I took a quick look and found that your armored division is several times more powerful than the armored forces I have."Model said with a smile

"Marshal, we still lack some actual combat experience. Although these soldiers have rich combat experience, they are still a little unfamiliar with the new tanks. If possible, we hope to participate in the battle as soon as possible."Major General At thought for a while and explained.

Hearing this, Model shook his head and said

"Because the Battle of Sicily has already begun, His Majesty the Emperor does not want to fight on two fronts, and in the Balkans, we also have hundreds of thousands of troops involved. If the war breaks out on the Eastern Front again, our logistics will be even more difficult. By then, the strategic initiative that we have finally regained will be lost again."

"I know all these situations, but I just can't bear to flee without a fight and let the Soviet army give away Kharkov, which we have worked so hard to capture with heavy casualties, for nothing. I am a little unwilling to do so."

Major General At shook his head and responded with a sad and unwilling tone.

"I understand your feelings very well! But you don't have to worry about not having the opportunity to attack the Soviet army, because your battle will come soon!"

Model smiled without any anxiety

"Really?"

Hearing this, Major General Att looked at Model with a sharp gaze and asked hurriedly

"Of course it's true. I came here today not only to check your strength and status after the reorganization, but also to dispatch you to the front battlefield to participate in the battle!"

Model replied calmly and calmly.

"Send us there to fight?"

Major General Ate shouted excitedly.

"You said that the Soviet army has now completely occupied Kharkov, so where do they want to occupy next?"

Model asked with a smile.

"Need I say more? Of course it's the Dnieper River, Isim-Taganrog, and Kiev!"Major General Ait said without hesitation.

"I understand!" As he spoke, Major General Aite instantly understood where the battlefield was._To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download the Faloo Novel APP!
