    What is coming will always come.  !

    On April 14, 1943, the German army launched an attack on Stalingrad.

    ??Previously, the German Air Force had bombed Stalingrad into ruins. Thousands of German tanks galloped like a sea, roaring, and rolling towards Stalingrad.

    The offensive and defensive battle of Stalingrad has begun!

    Although there are still nearly 200,000 Soviet regular troops in this city, and on both wings are reinforcements led by Marshal Budyonny. At the same time, a large number of troops composed of workers and citizens are also defending the city.  But the current combat effectiveness of the Stalingrad Front has serious problems.

    The Battle of the Terek River and a series of previous battles severely weakened the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army and greatly destroyed the confidence of the Russians.

    And this time it was Ernst.  The German troops gathered by Marshal Brahm had a huge numerical advantage over the regular army.  And they also have an absolute advantage in terms of armament in the air and on the ground.

    Ernst, who commanded these elite German troops.  Brahm vowed never to let tragedy happen again.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    All the forces that could be organized were mobilized, and the fanatical German infantry, under the cover of fanatical armor and artillery, launched a large-scale assault on Stalingrad.

    In less than twenty hours, the German army defeated the Soviet 4th Tank Army and the 2nd Guards Army. Eighty thousand Soviet troops were killed, wounded, and captured. All the outer lines of Stalingrad were lost, and the German army surged into the city.  district.

    And those defending the urban area are the Soviet 62nd and 64th Army Groups with more than 100,000 troops.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    The German offensive was so fast and advanced that even Wang Weiyi was extremely surprised.

    Sun Jun¡¯s 4th Tank Army and 2nd Guards Army still have very strong strength, but they performed poorly in front of the German army, which had absolute air and ground advantages.

    Judging from the current state of the German army, it is difficult for any force to stop their frontal advance. Of course, street fighting is not among this group.

    Street fighting is always the cruelest thing for both offense and defense.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    Wang Weiyi ordered that the German Air Force conduct all-out bombings on the east bank of the Volga River to block Soviet reinforcements. He knew very well that during the Battle of Stalingrad in another era, the Soviet army received a steady stream of supplies from the east bank of the Volga River.  and reinforcements, which constitute a very important condition for defending Stalingrad.

    But the situation is very different now.

    In previous battles, the Stalingrad Front had lost a lot of strength, and Vasilevsky, who had retreated to the east bank of the Volga River to command, had very few troops left for reinforcements.

    Hundreds of thousands of troops have been abandoned in the Terek River.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    And the few troops Vasilevsky had at his disposal were also bombed indiscriminately by the Luftwaffe.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  Once Stalingrad cannot receive reinforcements from external forces, its fall will only be a matter of time.

    Not only on the battlefield here, the Manstein Cluster and Guderian Cluster on both wings also launched a powerful offensive at the same time against the Soviet army trying to reinforce Stalingrad.

    Concentrating all the superior forces that can be concentrated is a method that Wang Weiyi has always used.  He will never disperse his troops easily without being absolutely sure of defeating the enemy.

    A fatal blow!

    Of course, the German army still has to face many difficulties, such as the most brutal street fighting where all kinds of unexpected things will happen.

    Before the war, Wang Weiyi had repeatedly reminded his subordinates that they must not take the Soviet army lightly and must maximize their strength to advance one by one.  At the same time, during the street fighting, Wang Weiyi agreed with his men to use all available means when necessary.  £®

    What we want - only victory!

    The advancing German army went very smoothly at first. They made full use of the coordinated operation tactics of infantry, armor, engineers, artillery and air force ground bombardment, and constantly annihilated the Soviet troops who tried to block their advance.

    But soon, the Soviet army¡¯s terrifying snipers appeared!

    Those lone German soldiers were often shot by the enemy's elusive snipers. There was even a nightmare in which 11 German soldiers were shot and killed by Soviet snipers in one hour.

    "Did Vasily show up?"

    After hearing the news, Wang Weiyi said this sentence inexplicably.

    "What Vasily?" Ludwig Gen, the commander of the Skeleton Division who was annoyed by the losses to his troops, asked? asked not knowing what it meant.

    Ah, the Soviet sniper I saw in the movie was named Vasily, right?  Wang Weiyi thought there.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  What is the name of his prototype?

    "The name in the movie is Vasily Sonev, and the real prototype is named Vasily Zaitsev" Xiaoling promptly gave Wang Weiyi's answer: "This man is an amazing guy  £®

    In order to reverse the situation and attack the German army, the 62nd Army of the Soviet Union divided its forces into "combat groups" and "assault groups" to deal with the enemy.  The founder of the 62nd Army's sniper movement was Vasily.  Zaitsev and his sniper team.

    Vasily.  When Zaitsev was young, he often went hunting in the mountains with his father and brother. He developed good marksmanship when he was 12 years old.  After the Battle of Stalingrad broke out, as an adult, he followed the troops to the banks of the Volga River.

    Zatsev¡¯s flawless shooting skills attracted the attention of the regiment leader, Lieutenant Colonel Metelev!  Zaitsev was personally awarded a sniper rifle with a scope, and asked him to select about 10 soldiers to form a sniper team, specifically responsible for shooting German troops who appeared alone or sporadically.  They often laid ambushes near German kitchens and toilets, and sometimes lurked in front of German positions, specializing in attacking German artillery sights, tank scopes and German officers. Sometimes they could kill dozens of enemies in a day.

    This guy Wang Weiyi had a smile on his face.

    "Marshal, Major Konings, the principal of the Berlin Sniper School, is here"

    This voice brought Wang Weiyi back to his senses, and he almost laughed.  Vasily's arch-rival Major Konings is here?  Ah, will the top snipers of Germany and the Soviet Union finally have a passionate collision like what happened in history?

    "Let Major Cornings come inAh, by the way, bring me Mr. Heisenberg and Edim from the Bredenberg Commando." Wang Weiyi gave the order calmly.

    Major Kaunings has always been a very proud man. He firmly believes that the best snipers are in Germany.  He was ordered to come to the front line from Berlin. The purpose of the German command was very simple - to use Germany's best snipers to deal with Russia's best snipers!

    This is not just how many enemies these snipers can kill, but a psychological battle between the two sides.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "Yes, Marshal, what's the name of that man? Vasily Zaitsev?" Major Cornings respectfully accepted Marshal Ernst's order, but at the same time he was a little strange, how could the Marshal know so well?  Did you get the name of the Soviet sniper?

    "Yes, Vasily Zaitsev." Wang Weiyi nodded: "Major Kaunings, you are the best sniper in Germany. Fight back against the Russians. On the battlefield, no one comes.  Limit anything you do. . . . Ah, I have to remind you that using a helmet is a good way to attract your attention.  Sniper, I think patience is always the most important thing!¡±

    "Yes, Marshal!"

    "Okay, go ahead."

    When he saw Major Kaunings accepting the order to leave here, Wang Weiyi set his sights on Heisenberg and Edim who were ordered to come: "Mr. Heisenberg, Mr. Edim, I think Major Kaunings needs to  Some help. You are also very good snipers. I think you can help."

    Major Kaunings did not live up to Marshal Ernst's trust. As soon as Germany's best sniper arrived on the battlefield, he shot and killed several Soviet soldiers one after another.

    This is just the beginning. Major Cornings, who admires the spirit of medieval chivalry, actually wrote a letter of challenge and sent it to Zaitsev.  This is a rare thing on the battlefield.

    Zaitsev showed no sign of weakness and had someone reply to a letter. He readily accepted the challenge and set off with his team that night.  They set up an ambush a hundred or ten meters in front of the enemy's position.

    The best snipers of Germany and the Soviet Union finally collided head-on!

    Between snipers and snipers, it is basically a battle of patience.  Sometimes they can kill dozens of enemies in a day, and sometimes they can't kill even one.

    But whoever loses this patience will lose this contest.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    Major Cornings and Vasily were ready to shoot each other.  Zaitsev waited all day and night on the battlefield and saw no sign of any trouble.  That night, there was still no movement on the battlefield.  Just before dawn, a gunshot was suddenly heard from the German position, and a Soviet soldier was shot in the mouth.

    "Safonov, what did you do?  Did the snooze gun go off?  "Zaitsev whispered.

    Safonov grinned in pain.  He endured the pain and wrote with a pen: "I wanted to smoke a cigarette. As soon as I lit the match, I was shot." Several soldiers quickly bandaged him.  Zaitsev knows: If he encounters a strong opponent, this person must be Kaunings.

    The next day, there was a lot of activity in front of the German position. People in the trenches were running around. This was the ideal prey for snipers.  Before Zaitsev could think about it, Safonov, who was eager for revenge, saw the opportunity and shot.  At this time, there was a "bang" sound, and Safonov threw his head back and fell to the ground motionless. It turned out that he had fallen into the trap of Major Cornings to lure the enemy.

    Zaitsev felt very guilty because his improper command caused the death of his comrades.  He secretly vowed in his heart: He must repay the blood debt from the German army and avenge his comrades.

    For the next entire day, Zaitsev closely observed the German positions and searched for Konings.  At dusk, a steel helmet suddenly appeared in the enemy's bunker and moved slowly along the trench.  shooting?  No, this is a trick.  It must have been Konings' assistant who was moving with the helmet, while he himself was "waiting to reveal himself when Zaitsev fired. Where would he be hiding? Zaitsev and his assistant searched carefully.

    "Isn't that him?" Zaitsev's assistant Danilov pointed excitedly at the forward position.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  At the same time as he spoke, Cornings' gun rang out.  Danilov was seriously injured and fell down.

    Zaitsev followed the sound and found no target.  But he judged based on the rate of fire that Kaunings must be nearby.  Is it in the damaged tank on the left?  Impossible, the target is too exposed; is it in the civil bunker on the right?  It's impossible, the perforation has been blocked.  That - under the iron plate between them!  However, Zaitsev did not act rashly, but carefully searched for clues and patiently waited for the opportunity.

    A few hours later, it was dawn.  German positions illuminated by sunlight.  Something flashed beside the iron plate.  Zaitsev judged based on past experience: This must be the sniper's optical sight shining.  Therefore, Zaitsev asked his assistant to shoot blindly to attract the enemy's attention, and then he also followed Kaunings' method and asked his assistant to hold up the helmet to lure the enemy.

    Major Cornings, who had killed two Soviet snipers one after another, quickly discovered the enemy's steel helmet. Just when he was about to stick his head out and shoot, he suddenly remembered what Marshal Ernst said:

    "I have something to remind you. Using a helmet to attract the enemy is indeed a good way, but the enemy can also use the helmet to attract your attention. As the best sniper, I think patience is always the most important!  "

    Major Cornings forced himself to resist the urge to shoot.  But his assistant, Lieutenant Lieutenant Yitman, was a little out of breath: "Major, let me give it a try."

    Before Major Cornings could agree, Lieutenant Yeatman had already poked half of his head out from under the cover of the steel plate.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    At this moment, a bullet shot out of the air, and Lieutenant Eatman fell into a pool of blood without a sound.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  His head was penetrated by an enemy bullet.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    so close!

    Major Cornings looked at the body of his assistant with lingering fear. If Marshal Ernst had not reminded him, the body lying here must be his!

    The enemy's snipers also performed so well!

    Major Cornings decided to continue waiting, waiting for the opportunity that truly belongs to him.

    And at this time Vasily.  Although Zaitsev used the temptation of the helmet to successfully kill an enemy, based on his feeling, he felt that the person he killed was not Major Kaunings.

    Sometimes snipers have such an instinctive reaction on the battlefield.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  It cannot be explained by normal reasoning.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "Vasily, we have killed the enemy!" his assistant said excitedly.

    "No, I don't think it's Kaunings" Zaitsev shook his head.

    "Let me see"

    ¡°Hey don¡¯t¡ª¡±

    But it was too late. After a crisp gunshot, his assistant died, just like Major Cornings' assistant Lieutenant Eatman, who fell to the enemy's gun.

    Zaitsev closed his eyes sadly.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  His feeling was correct. Kaunings was not dead. He was still hiding in the dark like a wolf, waiting for the fatal blow!

    Now, the assistants of Kaunings and Zaitsev are dead, and the battlefield has completely turned into a separate contest between them.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "Bang - bang -" Two gunshots rang out from behind Zaitsev, which shocked ZaitsevThe enemy moved around to his back.

    In this way, you are in a serious disadvantageous situation. Although there are many blind spots in your hiding place, it is difficult for the enemy to shoot you without being able to determine your position.  But judging from the sound of gunfire, there were at least two German snipers hiding behind him.

    One on three, this is not a situation a sniper should face.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    The sound of gunfire also attracted the attention of Major Cornings, and he had no time to think about what happened.  What would you do if you were in Zaitsev's position now?

    "I will never resist the enemy's three snipers, but will quickly move."  So where should I move to a safe place?

    Major Cornings kept looking around, and suddenly, his eyes lit up.

    To the west, you must go to the ruins in the west to avoid the pursuit of enemy snipers.

    Zaitsev crawled forward a few steps, and after making sure he could avoid the enemy's shots, he rushed forward and was out of the dangerous place in one fell swoop.

    Looking for it, if the enemy still stays in the previous shooting position, he will not be able to shoot at him.

    He stood up and took a few steps toward the ruins.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®  In these few steps, the enemy is assumed to be still on the original position and has no time to react at all.

    But at this moment, a gunshot was heard.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    Vasily.  Zaitsev fell.  £®  £®  £®  £®  £®

    Major Cornings slowly emerged from the hiding place, and then cautiously came to the Russian body.

    Vasily.  Zaitsev, the best sniper in the Soviet army.

    Now, the best sniper is dead.

    Cornings crossed himself.  Although I judged the enemy's retreat route in advance and successfully killed the enemy, no matter what, this enemy still deserves my respect.

    "Edim, Major succeeded, right?"

    "Yes, he succeeded, well done!"

    ¡°We also have some merit, right?¡±

    "Ah, yes, of course we have some merit, but we forced him out."

    "Then what should we do now? Are we still here?"

    "Hey, Heisenberg, it's time for us to get out of here!"
