Burning Moscow

>,!

I didn't expect that Chernyakhovsky would suddenly let me speak to the soldiers, and I couldn't help but panic. Please search to see the most complete! But soon I stabilized my emotions, facing the soldiers standing in the trenches and said loudly: "Comrades, your commander asked me to say a few words to everyone. Actually, I have nothing to say. Yes, I will just say a few words to you casually."

Having said the first few sentences, the following words are easier to say: "A soldier asked the commander just now, saying that you are a newly formed unit, can you stop the Germans who are armed to the teeth and brutal?" At that time, I intentionally paused for a moment and looked down at the soldier wearing glasses, and he quickly lowered his head when I looked at him.

I didn’t want to embarrass the soldier, so I turned my gaze to other directions, and continued: “I think it’s not just this soldier who has this kind of thought, but there should be a lot of people who have this kind of thought. Before this question, let me tell you about the situation of my receiving troops. When I saw such a troop, I really wanted to cry without tears. It is not so much a troop but a group of ordinary people wearing new uniforms. It’s more appropriate. They have not only received no military training, never participated in battles, or even weapons. Later, I found the commander of the group army and begged for a long time before I put a quarter of the weapons in front of us."

"Comrade General," the major next to him heard this and couldn't help but ask: "With so few weapons, can you block the enemy's attack?"

"Good question, Comrade Major." I was worried that singing a one-man show alone would not easily resonate with the commanders. Since the battalion commander took the initiative to ask me questions, I would naturally follow the water and answer questions with him: "I The military division had tens of thousands of officers and fighters at the time, but only more than two thousand had weapons in their hands. Guess, how did I solve the weapon problem for the officers and fighters later?"

When the major heard my question, he frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I'm sorry. Comrade General, I can't think of it."

"Since we can't get the weapons we need from our superiors, well, let's go to the enemy to ask for it." I continued to say in everyone's stunned eyes: "For me, the enemy is our transport team. They have the weapons, ammunition, food and medicine that we urgently need. Even military uniforms. A strong enemy, I can't do anything with him. Then I will start with a weak one. If I can't fight a regiment, I will fight a battalion, or even a battalion. Lian. As long as this enemy is eliminated, the weapons, ammunition and various materials that originally belonged to them will become ours." Having said that, I turned to face the commanders standing in the trenches and raised my voice, "You are right. its not right?"

"Yes!" After hearing my words, the commanders in the trenches all showed a suddenly realized expression on their faces. Then they shouted in unison.

After everyone’s shouts subsided, I struck the iron again and said: “Comrades, in fact, the Germans are nothing terrible. They are ordinary people just like us. When a bullet hits the body, they will pierce an eye; they will be hit by a cannonball. . It will still fly in flesh and blood. So what you have to do is when the Germans appear in front of you, you only need to aim at them with your gun and pull the trigger. Can you do it?"

"Yes! Yes! We can do it!!" The commanders below heard me and shouted in unison, shouting loudly. It made people excited. I even thought that if an enemy appeared in the field of vision of the commanders at this time, it might be sifted by random guns in the shortest time.

But when we left this position and went to inspect the new location, Chernyakhovsky said with emotion: "Lida. I really didn't expect that a few words of your light will bring down the enthusiasm of the commanders and fighters. Mobilization is no less than the effect achieved by our political workers for a few hours of publicity."

I didn’t get overwhelmed by Chernyakhovsky’s compliments, but solemnly said to him: “Ivan, I just observed that the equipment of the troops is not very good. Weapons and equipment to fight against the elite German forces are bound to pay a heavy price."

Regarding my statement, Chernyakhovsky nodded and agreed, and then said: "Lida, you know something. Although my Army has a large number, it is poorly equipped and inadequately trained. Apart from the commanders and fighters, In addition to the Mosin Lagan rifle in his hand, the Maxim machine gun and 82mm mortar are the best weapons they can get. At the same time, the guards in the other army groups, although the number is much larger than ours There are few ordinary troops, but their equipment and training are completely prepared for winning the most brutal battles. The most expensive and most advanced technical equipment with the highest combat effectiveness is given priority to equip them before they can turn to other troops."

Hearing him say this, I remembered the assault rifles and new bazookas that were about to be deployed for troops, and couldn’t help but ask: “Ivan, I heard that there are new weapons in the near future. We will start to deploy troops on a large scale. You can go to Commander Rokosovsky to apply. I believe he will allocate these weapons and equipment according to the actual situation. Even if you can’t change your entire army, even if you only change one or two infantry divisions, It can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops."

"New weapons?" Chernyakhovsky was taken aback when he heard what I said, and then turned to look at Yushchenko and the others who followed. He slowed down and asked me in a low voice, "Lida, is this weird weapon carried by your guards?"

I nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, this assault rifle was developed during the defense of Moscow, but because of the difference between the bullets needed and the bullets used by the current army, it has not been promoted in the army. . But now it’s fine. After the efforts of military personnel, the bullets of this weapon can already be produced on a large scale, so this weapon may be installed in the army in the near future." I said this, in fact, there are still a lot of ambushes. When I entered the secret base that day, I never had a chance to see many new products in the research room. I don’t know how many weapons from later generations have come out ahead of schedule.

After listening to what I said, Chernyakhovsky gave a wry smile and said helplessly: "Even if the superior assigns us new weapons, in my estimation, it may not be enough to arm a division." When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then suddenly asked me: "If your troops are allocated new weapons. How would you allocate them?"

Hearing this question of Chernyakhovsky, I immediately murmured in my heart. If I really want to let me distribute it freely, then it must be the ak47 as a submachine gun, one for each squad leader and deputy squad leader; Combat rifle, one for each soldier; as a squad machine gun, one for each squad.

But such a good thing can only be thought of. Chernyakhovsky's army is a general force, and the number of new weapons that can be obtained is definitely very limited. Thought of this. I can only say vaguely: "I think no matter how few new weapons are allocated to you, you can at least guarantee a few for each class. For example, this kind of assault rifle, you can give each class leader and deputy squad leader one person. Accompany one and use it as a submachine gun."

"Even so, it just barely solved the problem of light weapons. And we continue to use a large number of tanks and artillery to strengthen the defense and attack capabilities of the troops." Chernyakhovsky said here, the expression on his face has changed. I got frustrated: “I’ve been to Commander Rokosovsky several times, but he said that because it’s just in time for the snow-melting season. Not to mention the distribution of new weapons, even the transportation of normal supplies has been severely affected. Impact."

"Ivan, since we are all friends, if you have anything, you can just say it." From his words, I heard his embarrassment. It seemed that there was something to ask me for help, but I was embarrassed to start, so I asked straightforwardly: "As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you."

"Really? This is really great." Chernyakhovsky heard my statement, rubbed his palms with excitement, and then reached out to me. Gratefully said: "Lida, on behalf of the commanders of the Army, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

Seeing his reaction, I was even more sure that he had something to ask me for help. I have always wanted to have a good relationship with this excellent commander, but I just suffer from no chance. Since he has something to ask for, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it properly for him. I shook hands with him. Said politely: "You are welcome, if you have anything, please tell me directly."

"That's it, Lida." Although Chernyakhovsky and I have been called very intimately, he was a little embarrassed when he made a request to me: "I want you to respond to Marshal Zhukov. Can you equip us with a sufficient number of tanks and artillery while providing us with new light weapons?"

"Tanks and artillery?" If Chernyakhovsky wanted a light weapon like the ak47, I might agree to him without hesitation. But in addition to light weapons, he also needs a lot of tanks and artillery, which is a bit difficult. Even if I can speak in front of Zhukov, if there are too many, I will still be rejected by the other party.

After hesitating for a while, I asked tentatively: "Ivan, I want to ask, how many tanks and artillery does your group army need?"

"I have four tank brigades under my hand. Each brigade is equipped with tanks for us, a total of tanks, new and old tanks will do." Chernyakhovsky cocked his hand and pointed at me and talked about the tanks he needed. Number of cannons: "The artillery has five regiments. At least one regiment must have a cannon, so at least one cannon, whatever the caliber."

I thought that Chernyakhovsky would open a big mouth when he heard that I would help him apply. I didn’t expect that the tank and artillery he wanted was only so small, and there were no restrictions on the model and caliber. This shows how poor the equipment of the First Army is.

I waited for him to finish, nodded immediately, and said to him in an affirmative tone: "Don't worry, Ivan, when I get back to the city, I will immediately go to Marshal Zhukov and apply to him for the weapons and equipment you need."

Hearing my statement, Chernyakhovsky thanked me again. At this time, we had already unknowingly returned to the jeep, he took the initiative to open the car door for me, made a gesture of inviting me, said to me: "Go, Lida, the time is running out, come to the commander of my group army first. Let’s have lunch, and we will inspect the tank brigade and artillery regiment in the afternoon."

When we were driving to the headquarters, I suddenly remembered something, and quickly asked: "Ivan, is there a rocket battalion in your group army?"

"Bazooka Battalion?" After listening to my question, Chernyakhovsky shook his head and said with a wry smile: "As far as I know, there were rockets in the Voronezh Front, but because of the difficulty of logistical supplies, These equipment are left to the Central Front. Our group army has just been transferred from the Voronezh Front to the command of General Rokosovsky, and it will certainly not equip us with such advanced weapons."

Before our car reached the headquarters, a three-wheeled motorcycle drove towards me. As soon as Chernyakhovsky saw the officer sitting on the sidecar, he immediately told the driver: "Drive the car to the side of the road and stop. It seems that the officer is looking for me for something."

Our jeep stopped on the side of the dirt road, and the motorcycles began to decrease. The officer on the sidecar jumped off without waiting for the car to stop, and ran towards us quickly to the place where Chernyakhovsky was. Side car door.

Chernyakhovsky pushed the car door and asked the officer standing outside: "Comrade Lieutenant, what's the matter?"

"Comrade Reporting Commander, I just received a call from the Chief of Staff of the Front Army Malinin." The second lieutenant's body stood up straight and reported to Chernyakhovsky: "He said that Commander Rokosovsky was accompanying Moscow. Marshal Zhukov, who is coming, is going to our group military defense zone to inspect. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will let you do the reception work."

When Chernyakhovsky heard the news, he turned his head and looked at me somewhat surprisedly and said: "Marshal Zhukov has come to my defense zone?!" Then he turned around and asked the second lieutenant: "I know that the marshal and the commander comrades are here. Where is it?"

The second lieutenant nodded and replied: "At present, the marshal and commander have arrived at Kurchatov, and they are inspecting the tank brigade there, and all commanders at all levels of the brigade have gathered to speak."

"Understood, thank you, Comrade Lieutenant." Chernyakhovsky closed the door with a slam and then told the driver: "Drive, and go to Kurchatov's tank brigade station."

After the car started, Chernyakhovsky smiled and said to me: "Lida, it seems that I can use the opportunity to meet the marshal and apply for weapons and equipment to him. At that time, you will have to Say something nice to me next to me."

"No problem, Ivan." Based on what I know about Zhukov, since he has come to the defense zone of the Group Army, it proves that he still attaches great importance to this unit. I believe that with regard to the application made by Chernyakhovsky, He will agree very readily. You are welcome)
