My Third Empire

Khrushchev didn't know what kind of state Churchill was in when he committed suicide, whether he was the same as himself, curled up in a corner of the basement, accompanied by dim and flickering lights, praying that all kinds of unrealistic miracles would happen. Appears in the next second.

The Soviet fleet in Kerch had already fled, and Voroshilov did not seem to have fled back to the Caucasus with the shabby destroyer torpedo boats. He also knew what would happen if he went back to the Soviet Union, especially after losing all his soldiers.

Now, at this moment, the German soldiers are only less than 10 kilometers away from the core area of ​​​​the Soviet Union's Sevastopol defensive fortress, although the road less than 10 kilometers is full of bunkers and mines, trenches and camouflage everywhere The raised anti-tank artillery position, but this still could not give Khrushchev a moment's peace of mind.

Ever since he arrived in the Crimean Peninsula, Khrushchev has been fantasizing about his last scene before his death. He thought about the heroic sacrifice, and also thought about being beaten to death aggrieved. As he got closer, he realized that his doomsday was different from what he had imagined.

Above the head, there is a three-story thick reinforced concrete fortification. The entire mountain was almost hollowed out by the Soviet Union's own laborers. Inside, three floors of internal buildings were built. The bottom floor is Khrushchev's headquarters. There are ammunition depots and grain depots. The second floor is a huge underground barracks, enough to accommodate more than 2,000 fully armed Red Army soldiers, as well as some ammunition storage warehouses for light weapons; further up are more barracks and access to various branch forts and the main bunker , can hold almost 5,000 infantry.

On the ground, Khrushchev still has more than 50,000 soldiers stationed in defensive positions. Most of these soldiers are his cronies and elites. Their combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the temporarily recruited troops. After the failed battle of the Spring Offensive, he has some combat experience to some extent. They defended desperately in the trenches extending in all directions, using the advantageous terrain to consume the attacking German team.

The trenches around here are already fundamentally different from those built with wood and mud. In some key defensive areas, the trenches have been reinforced with concrete, and most of the defensive nodes are reinforced by hidden bunkers with roofs. There are concealed emplacements with anti-tank guns everywhere, and some are permanent artillery emplacements with top camouflage.

Unlike the Soviet defenders on the outskirts, there are hidden underground traffic tunnels here, which can dispatch troops to transport ammunition without anyone noticing, and there is a large amount of ammunition stored in the entire Sevastopol fortress, which is enough for the defenders Been squandering for a while.

This fortress or fortress group is already one of the strongest defense systems built in human history. In terms of the firepower configuration and defense level at the core position, it has completely surpassed the French Maginot Line of Defense. The most feared defensive fortress in the world is no exaggeration.

In these machine gun bunkers,

In front of the artillery firing position, it has been continuously buried and supplemented for decades, and finally formed a large number of landmine belts of the current scale. These landmines are of various types and a staggering number. Under the cover of firepower, they are enough to cause terrible damage to the German troops who came to attack.

Between the mines and the bunkers, there are endless barbed wire fences, one after another. Although these defense methods are a bit too old and outdated in today's war mode, they are still enough to rely on their huge number. Caused considerable trouble for the advancing German army.

However, Khrushchev knew that the Germans had plenty of ways to deal with these fortresses and landmines. At least in the report a few days ago, the Germans tried to use a new type of weapon in an attack. The rockets carry a large number of detonators to quickly clear the mines, and directly clear a safe area in front of the position that can be used for attack.

Khrushchev, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly remembered his youth. At that time, he was young and full of vigor, and he was still working as an ordinary administrator in the factory. On that day he came out of his office and saw a similarly young man in a Wehrmacht uniform standing next to the machine.

He walked over and said in a questioning tone: How can you let the Germans come to this secret military factory! But he was scolded by his leader before anyone could answer. And it was at that time that for the first and only time, he met the German head of state, Arkador Rudolf, and met the most powerful man in Germany now.

Akado Rudolph was so young at that time, Khrushchev couldn't help thinking. As Germany's now unambiguous and powerful head of state, Akado, who is nearly 6 years younger than him, has already reached the pinnacle of power. It's a pity that Khrushchev himself is now only a thin line away from being imprisoned or killed in battle. Time flies, it's really a trick of good fortune.

Boom! It seemed to be far away, and it seemed to be right next to my ears. The sound of the shell explosion came, which was not strong in the office. After all, there are dozens of meters of concrete and rooms above this office. However, I can still feel the vibration brought by the cannonball to the entire mountain, and I can still feel how huge the exploding cannonball is from the slight shaking of the table and chairs.

Dangdang! The knock on the door interrupted Khrushchev's wild thoughts. Now this poor front-line warlord can only issue orders in this fortress, and the troops he can command are getting less and less, and the land he can control It is also getting less and less, and even the breathing time he can expect is also getting less and less.

Come in. Putting down the wine glass in his hand, he was still drunk. A person who is going further and further down the road of despair usually uses alcohol to repeatedly hypnotize and anesthetize himself. Khrushchev has suffered from alcoholism since he arrived in the Crimea. There are two more empty wine bottles in his room every day. A few days ago when the German army started to attack, the number of wine bottles was even more.

Comrade Khrushchev! Comrade Commander, I hope you can inspect the troops on the front line, so as to boost the low morale. A Soviet officer in a decent military uniform stood at attention in front of Khrushchev, and after saluting Only then did he speak out the purpose of this trip.

Understood! Lunch will be distributed on time at noon, and each soldier will be given an extra potato. After taking a deep breath, Khrushchev agreed: Let the soldiers have a full meal, and then I will go to It will be better to see them.

In order to save food resources, the troops of the Soviet Red Army have long implemented a rationing system. Those who do not need to participate in the battle in the rear only have two full meals a day, and only soldiers at the front line are given three full meals. This system was implemented two months ago, but as the battle progressed and the logistics became chaotic, in some corners, the Soviet soldiers could not even have a full meal.

Walking out of the basement and through the long corridor, Khrushchev came to the central elevator specially for the chief executive, and two guards followed him onto the elevator. With the mechanical friction and slight collision sound, he came soon Arrived at the first floor of the underground fortification. There are passages leading to various places here. Not to mention the flat road, there is no need to worry too much about being suddenly attacked by German artillery fire.

There are cars in the tunnel, which shows the scale of the entire underground fortification, but the car can only take Khrushchev halfway, not directly to the front line. After all, the construction cost of the entire core fortification is too high, so the completely concealed car passage only covers a small half of the area.

Khrushchev sat in the car, feeling the dark tunnel and the dim light at the top of the tunnel. But soon the pleasant car journey ended early, because a German large-caliber shell penetrated the top of the tunnel, leaving a huge hole there, and the falling roof completely blocked the tunnel access.

What's going on today? It's really strange to have an extra lunch. A Soviet veteran sat in the trench holding his rifle and complained. The inferior black bread in his hand was obviously moldy, but He still ate with relish: It's not that the defenders in front are all dead, it's time for us to go up?

His companion was just about to answer his words, but saw several people in military uniforms approaching. The Soviet soldier quickly stood up, stood at attention, and greeted loudly: Comrade officer! Good afternoon!

Thank you for being able to hold on to your positions under such harsh conditions. Khrushchev walked up to the young soldier, and stretched out his hands to shake the young man who was too shocked to speak. shook hands: Thank you for everything you have done for the motherland!

After all, he was born in politics. Khrushchev’s level of winning and mobilizing people’s hearts is not in vain. He walked about 6 kilometers, but he still kept smiling and shook hands with everyone who was willing to shake hands with him. . One by one, he encouraged the soldiers and asked them about their difficulties, which moved the soldiers in the entire trench beyond measure.

Comrade Khrushchev! We will swear to the death to defend the territory of the motherland and repel all invaders! The Soviet veteran, who was dissatisfied just now, is now holding Khrushchev's palm to express his feelings with tears in his eyes Faithful. There is no doubt that these Soviet soldiers will be willing to die for Khrushchev now.

With you here, I feel full of strength! Because of you outstanding patriots who are not afraid of sacrifice, this fortress can never fall! Khrushchev encouraged his soldiers emotionally: It is as firm as a rock Hold your ground! The Germans will eventually lose!

While he was speaking, a thousand meters away, a shell from a German heavy artillery fell on the position of the Soviet defenders, raising a huge cloud of black smoke.
