6{7712zh1qka4u6vnxsorry Uraula"\r The terrible shouts were heard again with the clatter of the tracks crashing against the ground, and Carol Rommel leaned back against the fortifications, struggling to breathe in the air mixed with the choking smell of gunpowder.
\r The smell of this air is not good, but it is the precious air of freedom Major General Carol Rommel, who has never realized in the past few decades that the air of freedom is so precious, because he will soon lose his freedom, and perhaps his life.
\r The bloody battle of the fortress of Terespol has been going on for almost 72 hours, and the fierceness of the Soviet Red Army's offensive, the strength of the firepower, the bravery of the soldiers, and the mastery of tactics have all exceeded Carol Rommel's expectations In fact, even Guderian and the German General Staff did not expect that the Soviet Red Army would make such great progress in just 2 years after the Soviet-Finnish war.
\r And this kind of progress is first embodied in the strengthening of the ability to tackle tough problems.
The Soviet Red Army, which suffered two losses in the Brest fortress and the Karelian line, now had very effective tactics and equipment for attacking the enemy's fortified positions.
\r Of course, the equipment for attacking the fortified is the B4 howitzer with exaggerated appearance and firepower, but what really makes this B4 howitzer powerful is indeed a "B4 howitzer assault battle group" that appeared in the Soviet-Finnish war.
\r Hit the charge with a howitzer of 203 caliber \r It's a really brain-bending game, but it's very effective.
The "B4 howitzer assault battle group" of the Soviet Red Army was composed of 1 B4 artillery company plus 1 infantry battalion, 1 762 artillery battalion, 1 combat engineer company, plus 5 T34 tanks or KV1 tanks.
\r In the storming of the fortress of Trespol, this "B4 howitzer assault battle group" played a great role.
Guderian's elaborate so-called "battalion-sized ring fortifications" were effective against tanks and infantry, but not at close range against B4 howitzers.
\r In fact, there is no artillery or machine-gun bunker in the world that can block the close-range direct fire of the 203 howitzer, except for armored batteries.
And such an expensive thing as an armored battery is, of course, impossible to install in such a "cannon fodder fortress" as the Trespol fortress.
\r And the tactics of the Soviet army's "B4 howitzer assault battle group" left Carol Rommel and his Polish soldiers at a loss. 4 B4s in a group of 1 company are 4 B4s, often under the cover of tanks, infantry and 762 guns, rushing to a distance of less than 400 meters from the front of the Polish ring fortifications for direct fire Although quite a few B4s were also destroyed by the Polish army's 50 anti-tank guns, 75 infantry guns or mortars.
But the Soviets had a lot of B4 howitzers, and as long as these B4s were allowed to fire at close range, the Polish positions would soon be bombarded into a mess, and the officers and soldiers guarding them would most likely be dead.
\r In addition, the psychological pressure caused by the B4 203 howitzer firing at close range is too great.
During the battles on June 2 and June 3, many company-level strongholds were not destroyed, but surrendered voluntarily after the B4 howitzers came close to open fire.
\r The company commanders and platoon commanders who had been knighted as Polish knights, as well as the officers and non-commissioned officers who had joined the Solidarity party, preferred to go to Siberia for labor reform rather than be bombarded into a pulp by this terrible artillery So in less than 72 hours, all four battalion-sized ring positions guarding the core area of the Trespol fortress were lost.
With 6 infantry battalions, 1 artillery battalion, 1 anti-tank battalion, 1 engineer battalion and 1 anti-aircraft battalion, the Trespol Brigade, with a total strength of more than 7,000 troops, was reduced to less than 2,000 men, and retreated to the strongest core of the fortress for the last resistance.
\r However, it was clear that this resistance would not last long, the morale of the officers and men was close to collapse, and the number of people who tried to surrender was increasing, and Carol Rommel had to patrol the position, and several deserters were shot in a row.
But he can temporarily stop his men from surrendering, but he can't stop the approaching B4 howitzer.
\r These terrible howitzers were now following the attacking T34s and infantry, dragged forward and slowly by tank repair vehicles.
When the 34 and infantry were repulsed, the B4 howitzer assault group would appear less than 400 meters from the Polish position.
\r Looking at the approaching Soviet tanks and infantry, Carol Rommel sighed softly and said to the chief of staff beside him: "Go and send a telegram to Warsaw, tell them that the fortress of Terespol will fall in a few hours, and all the officers and men of the Trespol brigade will fight to the last man."
Hit the last person with a bullet "Major General, we're all going to die here," the chief of staff asked.
\r Carol Rommel shook his head with a wry smile: "We will die in the concentration camps of the Soviets, because we are Catholics, we cannot commit suicide." ”\r \r "Reich Marshal, Marshal Kesselring just called, and Terespol has fallen"\r Stauffenberg hurried into Hersmann's office and reported the bad news, where Hersmann was talking to Albert Speer, the new head of the General Directorate of Armaments.
\r Speer now replaced Goering as the head of German armaments production.
And the fat man Goering chaired the recently formed Economic Commission of the European Communities.
\r Since the United European Fleet now controlled sea power in the Atlantic, Germany had more resources to advance European integration.
Thus, the European Communists now have not only a common navy, but also a common economic and financial policy, and perhaps a European federal government will emerge in the near future.
\r The key to the emergence of this unified European federation is, of course, whether the German-led European Community army can occupy the LinkedIn mainland and repel the Soviet Red Army's attack on Poland.
\r "There's a fall on Terespol," Hersman raised his wrist and looked at his watch, frowning slightly, "It's not been 80 hours, and it seems that I'm underestimating the Soviets a little." ”\r He had seen the Trespol Fortress with his own eyes, and although it was a big gap from the Brest Fortress on the other side of the river, it was still a bit surprising that it fell in just 80 hours.
Originally, Hersman estimated that the fortress could hold out for 715 days, but now it was only a little over 3 days before the Red Army knocked it out.
This shows that the Red Army's ability to attack fortifications is much stronger than expected It is nothing that a cannon fodder fortress like Trespol, which is used to consume the strength of the Soviet army, falls, and it is a large-depth defense, of course, it is necessary to be mentally prepared to lose some territory and troops.
However, the two fortified cities of Warsaw and Lviv cannot be lost, otherwise the situation in the entire Polish battlefield in western Ukraine will be very bad.
\r "Albert, the matter of arms production will be left to you."
Hersmann stopped talking to Speer, stood up and shook his hand, and then explained: "The current opponent is the Soviet Union, and in order to deal with the Soviet Union, there must be quantity in arms production, so arms production must shift from focusing on quality to focusing on quantitative superiority."
And the general mobilization of the entire European community should be carried out soon, and it will be a general war in Europe.
Germany's military industry must be coordinated with the military industry of France, Belgium, Denmark and other countries.
\r In addition, you personally serve as the director of the Uranium Engineering Committee.
The production reactor and the power reactor can be advanced at the same time.
Gather scientists willing to produce bomb 94 for the Reich and carry out Project 94, and others let them continue to work on power reactors.
Both can get the same priority level of supply.
However, Project 94 must be a classified project of the Uranium Works Committee, and only the scientists involved will know of its existence. ”\r The uranium project is currently progressing relatively smoothly, which is different from the historical dispute between the "bomb faction" and the "energy faction" in the German atomic bomb test.
In this space, because of Hirschman's support, the work of the Uranium Engineering Committee developed along the line of the energy faction from the beginning, so it did not invest too many resources in the isotope separation project, which is very power-intensive, but developed along the route of the reactor.
In the process, two more lines, the heavy water reactor and the graphite reactor, were introduced, but both were successful.

\r However, the laws of scientific development are not expected to be changed by Hesmann, who uses atomic energy for peaceful purposes, and in the course of reactor tests conducted by scientists from the Uranium Engineering Committee, Element 94 plutonium was discovered by Hesman as a product of a nuclear fission reaction Soon the study of plutonium showed that it was a more suitable element than uranium as a charge for atomic bombs.
Because plutonium-239 can also carry out nuclear fission reactions, and the production of plutonium-239 does not need to carry out high-cost isotope separation, only need to use heavy water reactors and graphite reactors for low-burnup operation, that is, insufficient reaction can produce uranium rods containing plutonium-239, and then chemical separation can obtain plutonium-239\r The power reactor used for power generation is fully reacted by deep combustion consumption, which will produce a large amount of plutonium-240 and plutonium-241.
If the plutonium element of the atomic bomb charge contains more plutonium-240 and plutonium-241, the atomic bomb will not reach the design yield and become a dirty bomb.
Historically, Hitler's atomic bomb probably encountered the problem of excessive plutonium-240 and plutonium-241 content, and as a result, the explosion was not powerful enough and became a dirty bomb.
\r The research of the Uranium Engineering Committee has now advanced to the design and construction of "power reactors" and "production reactors".
At this time, the scientists of the Uranium Engineering Committee were divided, with some arguing that a plutonium bomb should be built quickly to blow up New York and Moscow, while others believed that atomic energy should be used in a more peaceful way, such as building several 100,000-ton aircraft carriers or battleships powered by nuclear reactors to destroy the U.S.
Navy.
\r Hersmann's solution, on the other hand, was to move the two projects together.
Within the Uranium Engineering Committee, a top-secret Project 94 was set up to produce Bomb No. 94, which was Element No. 94.
\r But bomb 94 wasn't right away.
Because the production process of plutonium was relatively slow, with a combustion reaction period and a decay period of up to 4 months, and then a difficult chemical separation process was required to separate a very small amount of plutonium-239 from the uranium metal, the atomic bomb could not fall on the heads of Mr.
Roosevelt and Comrade Stalin for the time being. t1706231537:
