Chapter 1212

When I heard that someone was blocking the car, my first reaction was that the German, who was broken up by our army, held the pistol in his hand at the same speed as the cowboy did in the duel. At the same time, I secretly prayed that basmanov, who was following behind, could come up quickly and solve the enemy.

But I soon saw that the people coming from outside were all wearing our army uniform. They should be baksov's men. Seeing that the group of soldiers came to the side of the car, I pushed the door open and asked in a loud voice, "Hello, comrade soldiers, what part of you are?"

"Who are you?" A second lieutenant asked in a stern voice, pointing his submachine gun at us.

"I'm oshanina, commander of the group army." facing the muzzle of the gun pointing at me, I slowly put the pistol back into the nest, and then asked in a dissatisfied voice, "are you general baksov's men? What are you doing here?"

"Yes, comrade commander." The second lieutenant lowered the muzzle of his gun and replied timidly, "we are ordered to search here for scattered German soldiers. I just had a routine check, but I didn't expect you to be in the car. "

"Well, comrade lieutenant, since it's a misunderstanding, there's no need to talk about it any more." I interrupted him impatiently and asked, "where is general baksov?"

The second lieutenant pointed to the distance and said respectfully, "Comrade commander, if you drive a kilometer or so further, there is a line of defense that has just been occupied by us. The division headquarters is located in the original headquarters of the enemy."

"Thank you, comrade lieutenant." With that, I nodded to the lieutenant, closed the door and told the driver, "driver, drive! We're going to general barksov's division headquarters. "

A few minutes later, the jeep stopped not far from baktsov's division headquarters. As soon as I got off the train, I heard the movement of shovel and shovel digging around the building, and I could clearly hear the chatter of soldiers. Around you can see the shadow shaking in the dark, it is the soldiers are building fortifications.

Chisgakov came up to me and said in a low voice, "Comrade commander, it seems that general baksov's troops are building fortifications."

I looked left and right, and saw two armed soldiers standing in front of a light revealing hiding Department nearby. I guessed that this might be the headquarters of baksov's division, and strode there.

The sentry standing at the door saw us walk past, carrying a submachine gun in front of his chest, and walked towards us a few steps. When he saw us clearly with the help of the dim light in the room, he immediately stopped and raised his hand to salute us. At the same time, he politely said, "Hello, comrades general!"

I stopped in front of him, pointed inside and asked, "Comrade soldier, is division headquarters here?"

"Yes, comrade commander." The sentry recognized me and replied respectfully: "the division commander and several commanders are in it."

Chisjakov and I walked into the division headquarters and saw a group of commanders sitting around the table, having a heated discussion. As soon as we entered the door, before we could speak, baksov, who was sitting facing the door, saw us. He called out: "stand up!" After shouting, he took the lead to stand up.

Seeing that his teacher suddenly stood up, the commander in the room immediately realized that there was a person who was higher than his teacher. He stood up in a panic and turned to look at us.

Ignoring the eyes of the commanders, I went straight to baksov and asked, "what's the situation here, sir? When can you take jergach?"

The commanders around the table quickly gave way for chisjakov and me and stood aside quietly waiting for their teachers to answer my questions.

"Comrade commander, it's very difficult to take jergaci tonight." After barksov called us to sit down, he said with a sad face: "the front of the German defense position outside the city is too narrow. As long as it is less than 300 meters, and there are forests and swamps on both sides, it is difficult for us to launch all our troops. The tank brigade lost four tanks, all of which were destroyed in front of the anti tank trench. "

"How are the enemy forces?" I continued.

"As it was late when we got here, we couldn't find out the enemy's deployment." After reporting the situation, baksov asked me for instructions and said, "Comrade commander, it's not realistic to win jergach tonight. Can we attack the enemy after daybreak tomorrow?"

After hearing baksov's request, chisjakov thought for a moment and said something good for him: "yes, comrade commander. It is unwise for the troops to fight at night in a strange place. I suggest that we postpone the attack until tomorrow? "

I've never been a headstrong person. Since I know it's unwise to fight at night in a strange place, I certainly won't force my troops to fight. This is of no help except to increase the number of casualties. So I said frankly, "well, since Comrade deputy commander and Mr. baksov agree, the attack will be postponed to the day tomorrow." As soon as the words came out, I felt that the officers and men around me were obviously relieved. It seemed that they were not optimistic about night fighting at all.

Seeing that I agreed to postpone the attack, baksov waved to his men and ordered, "comrades commander, go back to your respective units first. Remember to send more scouts to sneak into the German positions for reconnaissance and find out the enemy's deployment. Do you understand? "“ I see! " Several commanders replied in unison, then raised their hands to salute chisjakov and me, and left the headquarters in good order. When there were only three of us left in the headquarters, chisgakov said to baksov with a smile, "Comrade division commander, your division has done a good job today. It has broken through four German lines in more than two hours." On hearing chisjakov's praise, baksov's face showed a smile. After looking at me, he said modestly, "Comrade deputy commander, in fact, it is thanks to the commander that we have made such a smooth progress. Although there are several German lines of defense, their fortifications are all on the plain, and they lack enough anti tank weapons. Our tanks can lead the infantry to rush forward and tear up their lines of defense. The next battle will be much easier. " After barksov finished, I immediately said, "OK, sir, don't praise me any more. If the soldiers don't show bravery in the battle, no matter how good tactics I put forward, it's useless. By the way, before dawn, I think the regiments will be able to complete the reconnaissance task, and then the commanders will be called together to study how to launch the attack according to the deployment of the German forces. "
