The Skynet Is Back

Vadoki hid his body tightly behind a bushy. A dozen meters in front of him, a few soldiers in gray uniforms and pointed helmets were walking in this direction while searching. The beam of the flashlight swept back and forth between the bushes. The dull sound of leather boots stepping on the soil was getting closer, and Vadoki held his breath. For him, the world only left him with his heartbeat and the heavy and muddy breathing of the other party...

Snapped! Snapped!

There were two clear gunshots not far away, followed by shouts in German. The approaching footsteps stopped, and the soldiers ran away in the direction of the gunshots. Vadoki finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the cool ground, breathing the fresh air in the woods greedily.

Vadoqi is an ordinary soldier belonging to the 2nd Corps of the 1st Army of the Northwest Army Group. What happened to him during this period is really terrible. He was originally a dutiful farmer who worked diligently on his three-acre land. But more than ten days ago he suddenly heard that the war had broken out and the Germans were going to invade their homeland. Soon after, the Czar's mobilization order was also issued. Arrived in his village. After enlisting in the army, he followed his troops on a train and came to the front line unexplainably. When the Russian army crossed the German border one day ago, he was as excited as the other comrades-in-arms, because the Germans slid like rabbits in the mountains without a trace. They sang Russian folk songs loudly and marched happily along the way.

The misfortune seemed to have started last night. First, his 2nd Corps camp was shelled. One of the shells exploded not far from him. Several soldiers in their platoon were injured. Soon after, another camp was shelled again, causing them to assemble twice in a row, and it took a long time to return to the tent to rest. As soon as he fell asleep, the German plane flew in again and threw a few bombs, and finally he had to come to the battlefield with sleepy eyes.

Thinking of the daytime battle, Vadoki closed his eyes in pain, and bloody scenes appeared in his mind. The opponent's shells roared, causing waves of blood, human stumps and broken arms were everywhere, corpses were everywhere on the battlefield, blood flowed into rivers, and countless wounded soldiers were struggling and moaning on the ground...

In the afternoon, Vadochi and the remaining four soldiers in the platoon began to join the chaotic retreat, but they didn't retreat long before they discovered that they had been gambled to death by countless German machine guns. He swears that he has never seen so many machine guns. The Germans' tin trucks, ordinary trucks, and even motorcycles ejected machine gun bullets. The level of fear in that kind of scene is simply breathtaking. Most of his companions are just now. Farmers who put down their hoes have seen such a scene. Many people are scared to run around like headless flies, and others squat on the ground and cry. During the march, Vadochi also saw the kind of motorcycles carrying heavy machine guns in his reconnaissance troops, but there seemed to be only a dozen motorcycles in total, and any troops who were lucky enough to rush out of the encirclement were quickly caught by countless Germans. Catch up and kill.

Maybe it was God blessing, maybe it was the grandmother far away in southern Russia praying every day. Vadoki fled to a woods to the west of the battlefield, and most of the soldiers who broke through with him fell on the hillside outside the woods. He started to go east, but the road was blocked by the Germans, and many patrols searched the woods, and Russians who had slipped through the net were found and killed. Finally, darkness fell. The night gave Vadoqi a good cover. The Germans spared no effort to pull the net and almost found him several times, but he was fortunate to avoid him.

After a whole night of walking in hiding, Vadoki was far away from yesterday's battlefield at dawn, but he estimated that he had only advanced more than ten kilometers, and his physical strength had almost reached the limit. After passing through a pine forest, he saw a road where their troops had marched through yesterday morning, where some Russian soldiers were setting up a makeshift checkpoint.

"Great!" Vadoqi was surprised, and it seemed that he had passed the German blockade. Even though he was very weak, he still stubbornly walked toward the highway. As he got closer and closer to the road, he began to faintly feel something wrong, because those "Russian soldiers" did not have solemn expressions on their faces. After the main force suffered a catastrophic defeat, these people were still able to do it. As if nothing had happened.

Vadoki decided to hide behind the bushes ten meters away from the highway and observe for a while.

At this time, several Russian carriages loaded with logistical materials came from the west. The carriage stopped in front of the checkpoint. On the carriage, a Russian non-commissioned officer yelled. At this time, the sentries around the checkpoint surrounded the carriage. Suddenly, the sentries pointed their guns at the people in the carriage and yelled them off.

Vadocchi heard it very clearly. The sentries had just yelled in German, and cold sweat flowed from behind him. At this time, the Russian soldiers on the carriage had all been subdued, and some soldiers escorted them and the carriages to the direction from Vadochi.

He got up gently and left. He didn't know how long he would go east, but there must be a German-controlled area nearby. He didn't want to be caught by the Germans because he heard that he would be tortured to death if caught by the Germans. He didn't want to die. He was only 19 years old. He is going back to Russia, back to his relatives, and he is going to continue through the woods, east, east.

In the whole day that followed, he escaped several batches of German patrols, and at the same time he found that there were still several such outposts on the highway. He is just a small soldier, and he doesn't know anything about conspiracy or conspiracy. He only knows that these Germans are opening their blood basins and devouring his compatriots. In the evening, he found two radishes in an empty village. After devouring them, he fell asleep in a small attic in a warehouse.

"Your Royal Highness, dear generals, as planned, we have blocked all the roads leading to the Russian border. Thousands of patrols have been searching day and night in turn to ensure that no Russian will escape. In addition, we A total of 45 Russian transport units were intercepted today!" In the front-line combat command room, Admiral Hoffman made a report to everyone.

"Very good! Next, in the name of General Leninkamp, ​​commander of the Russian 1st Army, we will report to the Northwest Russian Army and the 2nd Army, telling them that the 1st Army is progressing well, starting from the Instburg Gorge yesterday morning. The mouth was over today, that is, in the early morning of August 19, the Xiakou defense line was captured by heroic Russian soldiers, killing more than 3,200 German troops, capturing more than 2,000 people, and tens of thousands of German troops retreating! The prisoners have been detained on the spot, the group army We are marching towards Königsberg. Ask General Samsonov's 2nd Army to cross the border and quickly move towards Königsberg!" When Chen Tian gave the order, other generals cast their surprised eyes. This is absolutely crazy. Only their prince dared to formulate such a plan to encircle and wipe out 400,000 people.

"Those captured Russian communications officers should cooperate!"

"Yes, Your Highness! The Russian army's logistical communications are all small bureaucrats and small nobles. When we surrounded them, these people were the first to surrender, and they kept clamoring to treat them like nobles! We moved a little bit. After a bit of the butt and the belt, they obediently cooperated with us!" Hoffman commented on the Russians with an extremely dismissive tone.

"Very well, just let them report as I just said!" Chen Tian looked at everyone with great pride. Before they were puzzled about his failure to announce the victory across the country. Now everyone finally knows his intentions. What's the matter?

"In addition, just to be on the safe side, let them add one more item. At present, some German spies are disguised as Russian soldiers spreading news that the First Army has been defeated. Once the Russian army finds such people, they must be put on the spot. Fa-rectification!"

"Yes!"

It was late at night, and Vadoki was staggering in the woods. There were no German patrols nearby, but the dark night, dense bushes and slippery ground made him pay a huge price for every step he took.

When Dongfang turned his belly white, he finally walked out of the woods. The military uniform was torn and scarred. He could clearly see the barbed wire and outposts on the Russian-German border. As long as he crossed that border, he Can go back to the motherland, back to his hometown, but unfortunately he never crossed the dividing line of life.

At 7 o'clock in the morning on August 20, the Russian 2nd Army finally crossed the border.

On the German land near the border, a young man in the uniform of a Russian soldier stood upside down. No one knows his name. People only know that when the huge Russian army crossed the border, he stopped an officer and told him that the First Army had been wiped out. The officer immediately drew his pistol and killed him.

General Samsonov is angrily carrying his 230,000 soldiers towards the hinterland of East Prussia. He believes that the 1st Army should wait for his 2nd Army after crossing the border, but the greedy Leninkan Pu actually launched an attack on the Germans alone. What's more terrible is that the guy had already defeated the Germans and was close to Königsberg. All his achievements were almost taken away. He urged his soldiers to speed up again and again on horseback. .

At 10 am on August 20th, the last soldier of the Russian 2nd Army also crossed the Russian-German border.

When the Russian army left, rumbling engines sounded from both sides of the road near the border, and countless large haystacks suddenly moved. Lieutenant Nicholas stretched out half of his body from the turret, and commanded his "Stone II" tank to slowly drive onto the road, adjust the gun horizontally, and point the muzzle of the black hole in the direction of the departure of the Russian army. He knew that the Russians would flee back here in a hurry, and he would command 15 tanks of the 1st Brigade of the Panzer Army Tank Division of the East Prussian Army to block the road. Here is another one who cooperated with them in the blockade. Infantry regiment, 109 machine guns and 9 rapid-fire guns.
