An unknown small village on the long front line between the Soviet Union and Poland. It used to be a trading post on the border between Poland and the Soviet Union, but it has now become an important stronghold for the two sides to fight desperately.

The Soviet army stormed the Polish defenders here for 15 days and failed to fully occupy the small village of only twenty houses. It was not until the Soviets smashed the village into ruins with artillery that the Polish soldiers stationed here retreated to the permanent fortifications behind and continued to persevere.

And just above the rubble of this village, an infantryman of the Soviet Red Army was struggling to cross the Supo border. About two kilometers further, it was the main defensive zone on the Polish border. The former Soviet troops had been dropped there. Thousands of corpses are still unable to move forward.

"Comrade political commissar!" An officer of the Soviet Red Army stood up and saluted a political commissar: "We no longer have ammunition, and we cannot attack now ..."

"Withdrawal is not allowed!" The political commissar glanced at the officer who complained and said proudly: "Every soldier should fall on the road for the motherland!"

"Comrade political commissar! We haven't eaten all morning! The soldiers were tired and fell asleep in the snow. We lacked ammunition and fought on the enemy's land ..." The officer said with a sad face: "We need rest, food, Replenish ammunition and oil. "

"No! You can't stop." The political commissar shook his head stubbornly, pointing in the direction of the Polish line of defense: "The real Bolsheviks will not be knocked down by hunger or fear!"

Anyone with a little military knowledge knows that the hungry force should not be forced to attack, not to mention that this hungry force still lacks ammunition and other supplies. But apparently this comrade of the Soviet Red Army ’s political comrades was stupid to read Stalin ’s disciplinary manual, and he was more willing to believe that those yellow-skinned Red Army soldiers in the distance could transcend with spirit *.

The attack started in the afternoon. The Soviet Red Army organized a large-scale attack on the front of the village, and invested a total of 4,000 soldiers to assault the Polish defense line. However, they were returned by machine guns on the Polish defense line. Many soldiers Being executed by the law enforcement team, more people fell on the road of the charge. Apart from allowing the Poles to use some reserve ammunition, this attack did not achieve any results.

Several political commissars who organized this attack began to shirk their responsibilities, and attributed the failure of the attack to the unwillingness of officers to serve the motherland or the soldiers ’inability to carry out the sacred tasks entrusted to them by the motherland—in short, they had nothing to do with them. . Their final meeting concluded that some bourgeois conspirators were still lurking in the army to destroy the Red Army's combat operations.

So in the morning, several officers who proposed that the troops lacked ammunition and supplies were arrested and sent to the remote Siberian concentration camp. The officer who said that his army had nothing to eat was shot in front of everyone. Sometimes we cannot understand this truth: as long as a few people are killed, even if there is an explanation for the tens of thousands of people who died before.

Kliment? Yevremovich? Voroshilov, as Soviet Marshal, is now staring at his men in frustration and standing in a row waiting for his instructions. He had just arrived on the front line this month, taking over and commanding the invasion of Poland by the nearly collapsed Soviet Red Army. His predecessor was sent to a concentration camp in Siberia a few hours after he arrived.

As a result, after he took over the front-line combat command, the Soviet Red Army still failed to win the battle against Poland. Except for mobilizing elite troops to attack parts of the middle road in Poland, most of the Soviet Red Army fronts were still in the vicinity of the Polish border. Step by step. Even the breakthrough on the middle line of defense was only slowly advanced after the Soviet Red Army had been chaotic for several days.

However, Marshal Voroshilov was fortunate than his predecessor because, in order to show the importance of the frontline attack, Stalin sent his three confidantes to take charge of all matters related to Poland. Khrushchev and Yezhov are now with Voroshilov, responsible for the political work of the Soviet Red Army offensive troops.

However, Khrushchev and Yezhov were both politically active. Knowing nothing about military matters, they wanted to show their strategic vision with their fingers, and their interference made the Soviet army's offensive weakness even worse.

First, Ye Ruofu insisted that the Soviet Red Army continue to insist on some major and minor full-line offensives. As a result, the Soviet troops dispersed the advantage of heavy weapons and played a week in a row, but failed to move forward. The regimental commander was killed by one-third and caught A third of them were executed and they still failed to open the situation.

Khrushchev read Yezhov's joke and decided to change this strategy. He knew better than Yezhov, he also consulted some Red Army commanders, and finally came up with a central breakthrough to directly attack Warsaw's attack plan. Of course, because of the lack of middle- and lower-level officers, the plan to build up troops was chaotic. The Soviet Red Army first started chaos.

In the end, Voroshilov took over the command that should have belonged to him, but he faced a stall that was too bad to rotten. Of course, his luck was not because of these, but because Khrushchev and Yezhov decided to conceal their frontline mistakes, so Stalin, who was far away in Moscow, received the news of the victory of the Soviet Red Army and Voroshilov won More time to fight for the victory that the Soviet Red Army should have won.

The Polish troops rely on solid fortifications to fight steadily, causing tens of thousands of casualties to the Soviet Red Army. Although the entire line of defense is crumbling because of the lack of reserve teams, there is absolutely no problem for another ten days and a half months.

The Polish defenders found that the Soviet troops were simply testing their training results according to their defense manual: when they were stationed in the village, the Soviet soldiers made casualties in a clumsy attack; and when they returned to the reinforced concrete fortifications to defend At that time, the retreating Soviets came back to die.

To put it bluntly, the Soviets were fighting the war in keeping with the rhythm of the Polish defenders: when the Poles were afraid of retreating, the Soviets were blindly attacked and returned to their homes, giving the Polish the courage to resist; At that time, the Soviets were chaotic and wasted their chances, giving the Polish a chance to breathe; when the Poles were ready to face the battle, the Soviets washed their faces and put them together ...

Khrushchev looked at the casualties of the troops and felt that sweat was already on his forehead. He put his name on the combat report reported to Stalin, and the land occupied by that nihilistic victory was still trampled by the Poles. This kind of thing is a mental torment every day.

And Ye Ruofu, who was opposite him because he was competing for pets, also showed frustration. He also signed the report of victory on the front line, so now he can fully understand Khrushchev's mood. They are now grasshoppers on a rope, so in the face of another failure, he is in a terrible mood.

Voroshilov was the only one among the three who knew about the military. Before he got the document, he knew that there would be such a fiasco. The logistics of his current military supplies have become a mess. The supplies in Kiev and Minsk are piled up, but there are very few supplies that can be transported to the front. The number of railways that the Germans helped to build is not a lot, but because of the gap in the level of dispatch, these railways could not even exert half of their capacity in wartime.

Soldiers on the front line are short of food and clothing, and ammunition cannot meet the needs of large-scale battles. If you can still win in this way, it can be said to be a blessing. So Voroshilov did not believe that the attack would achieve the desired victory from the beginning. But he had to let his soldiers go to death in exchange for the support and compromise of the two Stalins.

"Why did this attack fail again? Marshal Voroshilov!" Yezhov asked, seemingly looking for a reason to shirk responsibility for this failure.

Khrushchev sighed: "The army is in chaos now, and many political commissars have reported to me that there is no way to urge the army to move forward! At least we have to send food and ammunition to continue our offensive!"

"If ... if we let Comrade Stalin know that we dared to deceive him." Voroshilov coughed twice: "The three of us are finished! ... We now have to think of a best-effort solution to cover up our lies. Go on! "

Ye Ruofu saw that his responsibility was to get rid of the cleanliness, and shook his head and said, "We will launch another attack? Every time we fail, we will have one more hole! Now this hole is almost bigger than the sky!"

"Comrade Stalin held a meeting in Moscow a few days ago and praised the three of us by name." Khrushchev sighed and said with honour that he had won. He had never been so afraid of his boss's praise: "It was awarded to us The medals are also prepared to hold seminars in major military regions to discuss this victory. "

"The offensive is impossible! The army has reached its limit, and it will be maintained without chaos. It is already the result of the efforts of various departments." Voroshilov said after thinking for a while: "It will take up to 2 months to recover from the beginning of January next year. In order to ensure that the attack can proceed smoothly! My former commander is dead. "

Seeing that he put all the blame on the dead, Khrushchev and Yezhov nodded. But then the two men frowned again: Since the army couldn't get the victory it wanted, then how could this boasted victory be made true?
