Romanian Eagle

The 14th Army under the command of Smilga, although tragically blocked the Romanian army until the sun went down. However, as the Romanian commander-in-chief, General Fereit, he would not just let his prey go. The night battle was born under this circumstance.

A rose flare hit the sky and illuminated the earth like daytime. The Romanian soldiers continued to fight with the Soviet and Russian soldiers against the cold wind.

"Attack, crush these Russians."

The Romanian officers who led the team shouted loudly that their soldiers were attacking the enemy. As he spoke, his mouth was full of white gas, and the soldiers followed the direction of his fingers and attacked the position again.

"Defense, everyone waits to defend."

On the other side, the Soviet Russian army commander is also calling for the soldiers to defend.

Under the urging of the officers on both sides, the tired soldiers from both sides fought again. But overall, Romania has the advantage in numbers and weapons. As for the Soviet Russian soldiers, they could only use their flesh and blood to resist the enemy's attack. But how long this resistance will last, only God knows.

The night-time slaughter has continued, and now it is the physical strength, willpower and weapons and equipment of the two sides that are competing. In this case, most of the Soviet and Russian troops were at a disadvantage.

There is always an end to the endless fighting, and there is a time for those who are not afraid of death to die. When the physical strength and will of the Soviet Russian soldiers reached their limits, collapse was inevitable.

At the headquarters of the 14th Army Group, the sound of fighting was getting closer. At this time, an officer with blood on his body broke in, and he shouted loudly as soon as he came in.

"Comrade Smilgar, the enemy has broken through our defense line and is now attacking here. For the next battle, please move immediately."

This is the commander of the 14th Army Guard Company, Meretskov, who had been sent to the front by Smirga. And he has come back now to show that the situation has reached the point where it cannot be reversed.

Looking at Meretskov who escaped from the enemy's pursuit, Smilga replied indifferently: "I see, you can escape."

Smilgar's words caused other officers in the command to look at each other, how could they leave if the commander didn't leave.

Hearing Smirga's words, Meretskov said quickly, "Comrade Smirga, if you don't leave, it will be too late."

"I can't give up my soldiers,

They all died here, and I have no face to go back. "

After Smilga finished speaking, he checked and loved his gun, as if to calmly face the arrival of the Romanians as a Soviet revolutionary.

Seeing Smirga, who was determined to die, Meretskov suddenly said in surprise: "Comrade Commander Yegorov, why are you back."

As soon as he heard that Yegorov was back, Smirga turned his head suddenly and looked around. There was no one in this direction. Only then did he realize that he had been deceived.

But it was too late, Meretskov stepped forward and slashed Smirga's neck with a knife, and the commander of the 14th Army fainted.

Speaking slowly, in fact, in just a few seconds, Smilgar was subdued by his captain of the guard.

Meretskov's actions stunned the other officers in the command, but someone thought of something and quickly stepped forward to support Smirga.

"Let's go now. I remember there are horses at the headquarters. We bypass the road and head straight for Kyiv."

What Meretskov said immediately made his intentions known to all officers. Many people have to admire this bold guard company commander.

So under the leadership of the company commander Meletskov, the officers of this group of headquarters immediately took the necessary supplies and moved towards Kyiv in the dark.

When the Romanian army broke through the blockage of the 14th Army, Comrade Stalin, the political commissar of the Western Front, was already mobilizing Katotin's 200,000 troops to come to support.

When Yegorov sent a telegram saying that he had been trapped by the enemy, Stalin felt that his whole heart was about to jump out. How could he be reassured that the first major defeat of the Soviet Russian army happened in his own hands.

But fortunately, Yegorov said that he planned to lead the troops to retreat and needed the troops to respond. At this time, in order to cover the Ukrainian troops attacked by the 6th and 9th Army, it became the only life-saving straw for the two.

So Stalin rushed to Katotin from the headquarters immediately after receiving the telegram from Yegorov. It takes two hours by car on weekdays, but under Stalin's constant urging, this time it was just over an hour away.

After coming to Katotin, Stalin immediately ordered the 200,000 Ukrainian troops to bring weapons and set off with him to rescue the Western Front. But no matter how urged, the 200,000 army needs to prepare a lot of things. It's not enough to eat, but you have to bring weapons and ammunition, and you have to wear winter anti-skid shoes. These Ukrainian troops were not ready until the sun was about to set.

After seeing that the preparations were completed, Stalin and several officers in charge of the decent Ukrainian army discussed the route of the army and immediately arranged the departure. So in the evening of the same day, the Ukrainian army with torches divided into several groups and advanced towards Kalinovka.

And following these Ukrainian troops marching against Stalin, the only thought in my mind was, Yegorov, you should bring more troops to escape.

And Yegorov, who was missed by him, is currently being pursued by the Romanian army.

"Comrade Commander, the 8th Army reported that the 4th Army they sent to stop the enemy has been routed by the enemy. The enemy is less than 12 kilometers away from us. They asked if they would send another unit to stop it."

Yegorov, who was crouched on horseback, was listening to a messenger reporting the situation. The army that pursued them was the Romanian army on the northern front, commanded by Lieutenant General Mandif. And Yegorov remembered the encounter with the Romanian army, and he shouted luckily in his heart.

At that time, after Yegorov left the 14th Army to break, he led the retreating Western Front to Katotin. While crossing a bridge called Kalots, the scout cavalry reported that a troop was coming fast from the north towards the bridge where they were at Kalots.

At present, in addition to the 6th and 9th Army of the Western Front, which is far away in Nemirov, there are also the 14th Army that was left in Kalilovka by itself, and the 16th Army that was repelled to the north. Other troops are here. Then this rapidly approaching force must be the enemy.

At present, the fighting spirit of the Western Front troops in their hands is not high. If they are bitten by the enemy, they will be able to escape completely, so they must leave a force to defend. In the end, he chose the 4th Army of the 8th Army as a defensive force, and he immediately rushed to Katotin with other troops.

In fact, Yegorov guessed correctly, this unit is indeed the Romanian army on the northern front of Lieutenant General Mandif. After they defeated the 16th Army, they immediately detoured to attack the rear of the Western Front, and the Kalots Bridge was the location of his choice.

However, he did not expect that Yegorov, after seeing that the situation was not good, immediately left the troops to survive by cutting their tails, which made Lieutenant General Mandiv flutter in the air. His Excellency Lieutenant General regretted it secretly. He only had to arrive half an hour earlier, and Yegorov and the main force of his Western Front could not escape.

So after seeing the opportunity slip away from his hands, he vented all his anger on the Fourth Army who blocked him. In less than three hours, the 4th Army fled.

And Lieutenant General Mandiv did not care to deal with these defeated troops, he only saw the main force of the Western Front led by Yegorov. So after leaving a division to clear the remaining enemy, immediately brought other troops to pursue Yegorov.

Now the report of the messenger makes Yegorov start to consider sending that unit to stop the enemy. At this time, a panting officer ran in front of him and said loudly: "Commander, the political commissar and the reinforcements have come to the village of Wadley 10 kilometers ahead of us."
