On August 5, after two days of large-scale firepower preparations, the entire Josephgrad was bombed into ruins.

The Third Reich's Army Group South's attack on the city of Josephgrad also began.

The four infantry armies of the Third Reich's Army Group South invested 8 infantry divisions in the attack. The Caesar Kingdom Expeditionary Force dispatched twenty infantry divisions. In addition, the Ermao Kingdom's army also dispatched fifteen infantry divisions.

As for the low combat effectiveness, the Romania Kingdom Expeditionary Force and the Borgaria Kingdom Expeditionary Force, which had been shrinking back, dispatched twenty infantry divisions and ten infantry divisions respectively.

This allowed the Iron Alliance to invest more than one million combat troops in the attack on Josephgrad.

Among them, the Third Reich only invested more than 100,000 people. The rest are the armies of the slave states.

The urban street fighting was naturally brutal. After the Iron Alliance troops invaded the city of Josephgrad, they encountered a tenacious resistance from the Woolly Bear Alliance troops. Although the troops of these furry bear alliances have poor combat effectiveness and poor weapons and equipment. However, they do not lack courage.

Relying on the light weapons in their hands, they tenaciously resisted the Third Reich's attack in the city of Josephgrad.

However, this certainly caused considerable losses to the Iron Alliance army. But equally, their own losses are also very large. Moreover, it was impossible to stop the Iron Alliance's army from advancing.

As the losses of the Bear Alliance troops in the city increased, their defense lines continued to be breached and their positions continued to fall. This naturally dealt a greater blow to the army of the Woolly Bear Alliance. Especially in terms of morale and fighting will, they suffered a devastating blow. This once again severely affected their combat effectiveness. His performance on the battlefield was even worse.

The Iron Alliance army's attack in the city of Josephgrad went very smoothly. Even if the progress is not fast, breakthroughs can be made every day. If this continues, Josephgrad will fall under the control of the Third Reich within a month or two at most.

Once Josephgrad fell, the entire lower Volga region would be controlled by the Third Reich. Next, the Third Reich will send troops south to the Caucasus and north along the Volga River to capture the hinterland of the Woolly Bear Alliance. They even crossed the Ural Mountains and Ural River and attacked Siberia.

This will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the Woolly Bear Alliance, which is currently struggling to survive.

It was precisely because he saw this that Joseph, who had secretly fled to Chelyabinsk, repeatedly issued orders to the commander of the Josephgrad Front, General Konev, asking him and his troops to defend Josephgrad without any hesitation. let. If you retreat without permission again, you will definitely not bypass him and so on.

It can be seen that Joseph is very concerned about this battle.

After all, this is a city named after him! Originally this was Volgograd, but after Joseph ascended the altar, it was changed to Joseph Castle and was renamed to Ulyanovgrad, in memory of Ulyanov, the founder of the Woolly Bear Union..

However, even though Joseph was in Josephgrad, he did not want to see this place fall. But unfortunately, there was nothing he could do to prevent this from happening.

Facing the attack of the Iron Alliance, the defenders of the Furry Bear Alliance in Josephgrad City could not resist even if they tried their best.

Even as the battle continues, the fighting will of the Wooly Bear Alliance troops becomes increasingly fragile. Already on the battlefield, there has been a phenomenon of collapse at the first touch and fleeing at the sight of the wind.

Many troops, desperate, surrendered directly to the Iron Alliance.

Many soldiers of the Woolly Bear Alliance are willing to die for the Woolly Bear Alliance and for Joseph. However, when they no longer see hope or the possibility of victory, the ideas they insist on will be affected. Under such circumstances, can they still be expected to fight to the end? That is simply delusional.

As time went by, the area occupied by the Iron Alliance in the city of Josephgrad became larger and larger.

At the beginning, the troops of the Woolly Bear Alliance were able to launch a counterattack and started a fierce battle with the troops of the Iron Alliance. But the further they get to the back, the worse their combat effectiveness becomes, which makes them no longer capable of fighting. Most of the time, they would stick to their positions, waiting for the Iron Alliance army to attack, until they died in battle and their positions fell.

One day later, in late September 1941 AD.

The Iron Alliance troops have gained decisive strength in the battle in Josephgrad. More than 80% of the entire urban area of ​​Josephgrad has been occupied by the Iron Alliance troops.

The troops of the Woolly Bear Alliance have been compressed to the riverside area east of Josephgrad.

Moreover, the recalcitrant Fury Bear Alliance troops in the city also suffered heavy losses. As of now, only a few hundred thousand people remain. The remaining troops were either killed in the fierce battle or surrendered to the Iron Alliance.

The current situation is already very unfavorable for the Josephgrad Front of the Wooly Bear Alliance. Soon the entire urban area of ​​Josephgrad would fall into the hands of the Third Reich. As for the troops stationed in the city, there is only one fate, and that is to be surrounded and annihilated by the Third Reich's Army Group South and numerous servant armies.

"Comrade Commander, we can't hold on any longer. The Iron Alliance's military attack was too strong, and our troops have suffered heavy losses. Now, there are not many positions in our hands. If this continues, we may be completely wiped out here. Lieutenant General Bagramyan, Chief of Staff of the Josephgrad Front, said.

General Konev nodded, and he naturally understood the current situation.

"Order the remaining troops to cross the Volga River and garrison to the east of the Volga River!"General Konev immediately issued the order.

Obviously, in order to save his own life, General Konev once again chose to retreat without authorization when he did not receive orders from Joseph.

"Yes, Comrade Commander! Lieutenant General Bagramyan replied. On

September 8, the remnants of the Woolly Bears evacuated Josephgrad and fled to the east of the Volga River. The Iron Alliance troops led by the Third Reich easily occupied Josephgrad.._To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
