In another parallel time and space, the Germans repeatedly fought over the area near Kerch throughout the Battle of the Crimean Peninsula. This also caused a large number of casualties in the German army and repeated the entire Battle of the Crimean Peninsula. Only when the Germans captured the Sevastopol Fortress Group did they finally end the Battle of Kerim, which lasted more than 200 days.

The Germans now occupy the right place, and it is much better than the situation that Manstein has dealt with alone. First of all, the German army cut off the support operations of the Soviet Caucasus region to the Crimean peninsula in advance during the offensive and defensive battle in the Crimea. Although this was caused by Khrushchev himself, it was considered that the Germans occupied the time.

Then the Soviet Union did not continue to strengthen and renovate the military fortifications on the Crimean peninsula, as in history. Most of the Navy ’s funds were thrown on the huge Soviet-class battleships, so there was no decent investment in Croatia. In the civil engineering works of the Limu Peninsula, where the armored turrets were originally intended to be installed, many had only one outer shell, and no real artillery was in it.

In the end, the Soviet army had no external reinforcements, and the internal elite had also been consumed and destroyed. Although there was no shortage of ammunition, there was no way to effectively counter the German offensive because of the lack of soldiers. Finally, the entire Sevastopol fortress group fell. Marshal Voroshilov was helplessly trapped in an isolated situation near Kerch. At this point, the peace of the Soviet Union was completely lost, and the outcome of the entire Crimean Battle was destined at that time.

Therefore, when Manstein initially formulated the Crimean Peninsula offensive battle plan, he decided to attack the Sevastopol fortress group first, and after getting rid of this hard bone, he obtained the maritime supply line from Romania to Sevastopol. The Germans on the southern side had more convenient supplies.

"To replenish the armored troops to the pre-war state as soon as possible, I need sufficient fuel to ship directly from Romania. The ship problem seems to be no longer a problem. Turkey promised to lend us 40 cargo ships. Romania also has 90 ships, which is enough for transportation. A lot of supplies. "Manstein stood in front of the map, pointing between Romania and Sevastopol, and ordered the subordinates:" The port of Sevastopol returned to the pre-war level as soon as possible, the day after tomorrow. I ’m going to hear that the goods can be loaded and unloaded normally. "

"General, 10,000 supplementary soldiers have assembled in Romania, there are 3,000 local mercenaries, and 7,000 Austrian youth and domestic soldiers." The officer in charge of supplementary soldiers reported: "The train that transported these soldiers lost them When he arrived in Tulcea, Romania, he left. "

"The three divisions of the infantry are attacking in the direction of Kerch. The Soviet defense strength is much worse than the Sevastopol fortress. We are advancing very fast and are close to their core defensive circle." The chief of staff used The pointer pointed to the huge map hanging on the wall and gave Manstein a detailed introduction to the current fighting situation: "Our army was attacked here and here, but the Soviets did not capture any positions. They were in When our air force arrived in the early morning, we retreated. "

You know, although the junction between the Kerch region and the Crimean peninsula is also a long and narrow terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but without the support of the entire Caucasus region behind Kerch, the defense line here is not as solid as it seems. At least when the Germans were attacking now, Voroshilov's troops were defeated, faster than Khrushchev's defeat in Sevastopol.

"Report!" A German military officer walked to Manstein with the documents and stood up to salute: "Long live Akado? Rudolph!" He is gentle and elegant, and his clean face is boring. Young version of Marshal Lausich.

"Long live the heads of state!" Manstein gave me a meticulous return, and then smiled and asked Brousic's nephew who had just returned from the front line, "Is there anything to tell me so eager to return from the front line?"

"General! News from the front line just found Khrushchev's body. He died on the way to the attack, which is consistent with his usual style." Brahich's son solemnly said: "His The body has been found and has been lying there for a day, but because of the weather, it has been kept very well. "

"..." Manstein was silent for a while, and then said: "Take care of him and send him to the wolf's den with a special train. I heard that this former Soviet Union No. 2 character has seen our head of state, I don't know if it is Not true. But it is a fact that he is dead now, it seems that we have one less opponent. "

The officer who had a close relationship with the Field Marshal nodded immediately: "Okay, General, I will do it."

Manstein watched him go out. He walked straight to the edge of the huge map hanging on the wall. He raised his head and carefully looked at the label. Finally he reached out and nodded with his finger on the map. Said: "Now that Khrushchev has been kicked out of me, now you ... Voroshilov, are you ready for your funeral?"

...

"Everything is over, comrades." Of course Voroshilov knew exactly how many brushes he had. He had only about 100,000 troops in his hands, and it was really stretched to guard Kerch and the surrounding area. It is desperate that he is in a more difficult situation than Khrushchev. After all, Kerch ’s ammunition reserve is not as sufficient as Sevastopol.

The Sevastopol fortress group has always been built as the core of the entire Crimea, so most of the reserve ammunition is also placed in this strong fortress. Although there are some reserves in Kerch, there is no fortress There are so many fortresses in Vastopol.

The war has reached the present level. The previous consumption has made the bullets in the Soviet army somewhat stretched. Now the Germans have knocked out Sevastopol and turned their guns to the poor Kerch. Let Kerch be in the direction. The Soviet army on the road was even more desperate.

Khrushchev was defeated and killed in the Sevastopol stronghold, and Voroshilov immediately felt that the pressure in front of his defense line had doubled. The intensity of the German offensive is not as many times stronger than when the Sevastopol Fortress Group was still there. Several positions were captured by the Germans in an instant, and his strategic depth was almost collapsed.

"Damn Manstein! He really did kill him." Voroshilov originally thought that after the German attack and defense in the Sevastopol fortress, he would take a rest and start attacking again, but did not expect that the German infantry was almost there. That day began to advance. His troops lost again and again, and now they are about to lose back to Kerch.

Compared to Khrushchev, Voroshilov is a well-known military sir. He was one of the early marshals of the Soviet army. He was indelible among the mid-to-senior Soviet officers who were in the maintenance of the cleaning purge disaster. Contribution. Now that he is in distress, the first reaction was not to fight deadly, but to continue to retreat.

Although on the map, Kerch is a dead place, the place where the rear is lost is almost the same as the desperate situation. The entire Kerch area is surrounded by the sea on three sides. Love must follow Khrushchev's footsteps.

But only he himself knows that in fact he still has a way back, not far east of Kerch, across the strait, is the Caucasus region of the Soviet complex, as long as a boat is prepared, what is he Voroshilov? It is not difficult to escape from ascension.

In these days, in addition to dispatching troops to deal with the German attack, he has been liaising with Moscow and begging his old colleagues to pray for him to return to the Soviet Union and continue to command troops to resist the Germans in the Caucasus. Invasion.

His running was not ineffective. Many military officers felt that the marshal was still contributing to the Soviet army, and there was no need to force his death fight in such a place as Kerch. Khrushchev's death gave this matter a step, and everyone blamed the dead on the dead, biting themselves to be the victims of persecution.

Everyone has selfishness, everyone has their own fear of death. Once you give people hope and hope that you can live, then this person will not do anything desperate. This is the reason why the siege was used in ancient siege.

Now that Voroshilov sees that his retreat is successfully planning bit by bit, he naturally has no intention of resisting to death. He shrinks the Kerch line of defense bit by bit, waiting for the Soviet Union to give him. The accurate news came that he was about to run with his tail in his hands.

As for the life and death of the Soviet soldiers, he has no good way. Obviously, the fewer people who know this kind of thing, the better. Once tens of thousands of people cross the strait and retreat to the Caucasus, then the whole thing will be exposed. The morale for the frontline Soviet troops It is undoubtedly a huge blow. A group of people who have been classified as traitors have been forgiven, so surrender or temporarily not listening to the command will flood.

"Telegraph reminder, ask Marshal Zhukov, can I move the headquarters to the Caucasus ... forget it, just ask ... when can I leave and go to the Caucasus." Voroshilov knows his Two pounds, directly to Stalin to bargain, it is estimated to be rejected. So he found Zhu Kefu, the commander-in-chief of the front line who had had human relations, hoping he could help himself. Of course, Zhukov did not disappoint him. He decided to arrange a fake identity for him and send it to the Caucasus region to be an idle old man who would no longer be involved in military affairs.
