Burning Moscow

Chapter 1484: Ternopil (middle)

Half a month? After I heard Rebarko’s answer, I couldn’t help but smile. I thought that even if I could agree with you to liberate Ternopil in half a month, I guess Stalin and Zhukov would not agree. ?

Seeing this expression on me, Rebarko knew that his answer would definitely not satisfy me, and he quickly asked carefully: "Lida, how long do you think we should take Ternopil?"

I stretched out a finger and said decisively: "One week! I can only give you one week at most, and you must take Ternopil."

"Comrade Deputy Commander of the Front Army, please allow me to tell you about Tarnopol." As soon as I finished speaking, the military commissioner smiled and said to me: "This is a city in western Ukraine, Tarnopol. The capital of the Ersport. It has a population of 120,000 on the Shelet River, a tributary of the left bank of the Transnistrian River. It was built as a fortress in 154o, it belonged to Poland in 192o-1939, and it was transferred to the Soviet Union in 1939.

When the military commissioner introduced me to the history of Ternopil, I suddenly thought: This city was only renamed "Ternopil" after being liberated by the Soviet army in 44 years. The name used at the moment is still "Tarnopol". Although I used "Ternopil" when referring to this place name, no one reminded me that I was wrong. Maybe they thought I was inaccurate.

However, from the military commissar’s words, I heard what he meant. The city we are about to attack can be regarded as a fortress. The enemy’s fortifications are strong. It is almost impossible for our army to capture the city in a short time.

Regarding what the military commissar said, Rebarko remained silent. The chief of staff then said to me: "Comrade Deputy Commander of the Front Army, it is the season of snow melting in spring. In previous years, we had ceased fighting and rested at this time. Only this year we continue to attack the enemy. The muddy road and the difficult The passing fields and swamps greatly restricted the range of armoured forces, making our offensive difficult."

I immediately refuted the statement made by the Chief of Staff: "Comrade Chief of Staff, your statement is wrong. It is the spring thaw season. However, our army’s tank tracks are wider than the enemy’s tanks. Many enemy tanks In impassable areas, our tanks can pass normally. In other words, when we attack a city, the number of tanks that can be put into battle will greatly exceed the number of enemy tanks."

Seeing what I said, the chief of staff immediately closed his mouth obediently. He might have remembered that I had just come from the 1st Tank Army. Katukov's ability and experience in commanding tank troops is much better than that of Rebarko.

After I finished speaking, the whole room fell into an awkward silence.

Just as I was about to find something to break the silence in the room, the ringing of a telephone on the table rang. The chief of staff grabbed the phone and listened for a moment, then handed the microphone over to me, and said respectfully: "Your call is from the front army headquarters."

A call from the front army headquarters? When I heard the Chief of Staff say this, I immediately thought whether Zhukov had any important tasks to explain to me. As soon as I put the microphone close to my ear, I said loudly: "Hello, Comrade Marshal, do you have any latest instructions? ?"

Unexpectedly, Khrushchev’s voice came from the receiver: "Lida, it’s not Zhukov, I’m Khrushchev."

"It turned out to be you, Comrade Military Commissioner." It was Khrushchev's voice. Although it was a bit confusing for me, I still smiled and asked, "May I ask you something?"

"Is there anyone next to you?" Khrushchev did not answer my question immediately, but asked rhetorically.

I held the microphone, looked at Rebarko and several of his deputies, and then said into the microphone: "Yes, it is General Rebarko, as well as his deputy commander, chief of staff and military commissar."

"Let them avoid it first." Khrushchev said in an unquestionable tone: "I have something important to tell you."

After listening to Khrushchev’s words, I quickly covered the microphone and said to Rebarko a little embarrassed: "I’m sorry, General Rebarko, Comrade Khrushchev wants to talk to me about important things. You and yours Colleagues, can you avoid it?"

"No problem." Rebarko nodded, stood up, waved at the others, and said: "Let's go, let's go out first, and we will come in again after the deputy commander of the front has finished the phone call."

After Rebarko and the others and the communicators sitting in the corner all left the room, I released my hand covering the microphone and said respectfully: "Comrade Rebarko, General Rebarko and they have already gone out. What do you have? Things can be said now."

"That's it, Lida." Khrushchev said slowly on the phone: "From the current situation, it won't take long for our troops to regain the entire Ukraine. But the war is fought by Ukraine. Huge losses have come. According to incomplete statistics, about 4 million people have been lost, tens of thousands of industrial and mining enterprises and more than 20,000 collective farms have been destroyed. In order to rebuild Ukraine as soon as possible, make it the largest granary of the Soviet Union again. The High Command informed me that I would return to Kiev tomorrow to take charge of local work and rebuild the destroyed factories and collective farms..."

When I heard this, I couldn't help but shudder, and asked what he said to me. Does he want me to be his assistant and go to work in the local area? To be honest, I really don't want to go to work in a local area. The personnel relationship is too complicated. With my emotional intelligence, it won't be long before I will be cheated to death by others.

After finally waiting for his words to come to an end, I tremblingly asked: "Comrade Military Commissioner, I don't know what can I do for you?"

"Lida, I admire you very much. You are a very capable comrade." As soon as Khrushchev's words were uttered, my heartbeat increased. It turned out that he really wanted me to work somewhere. Just when I was on the verge of despair, I suddenly heard him say: "But I know that you like to stay in the army instead of working in a local area."

"Yes, that's right, Comrade Khrushchev, it is true." Hearing Khrushchev's words, I seemed to see a glimmer of life, and quickly followed his words and said: "I feel that my ability is not suitable When working at a local level, you can only divide the command of the army and the enemy."

Hearing this, Khrushchev couldn't help laughing, making me confused. After he finished laughing, he said to me: "Lida, I know you don’t want to work somewhere, so I won’t force you. I called you today. There are two things. First, although I still hang up He holds the position of the military commissar of the Front Army, but Major General Kreinyukov will be responsible for all political work in the Front Army in the future."

"Well, I know." I heard that Khrushchev didn't let me go to work. The rock hanging in my heart fell to the ground. I then asked: "What else is there?"

"I know you have many ideas, and I want to ask you something."

"Don't dare to ask, don't hesitate to ask if you have anything." When Khrushchev spoke to me in such a polite tone, my heart became unreliable again: "As long as I know, I will answer truthfully. "

"I think you should know that people in West Ukraine are not very friendly to us, so during the war there were many anti-Soviet guerrillas supported by Germans." Khrushchev asked unexpectedly: "If we During the reconstruction work, it was resisted by the locals. Tell me, what should we do?"

In the process of rebuilding Ukraine, was resisted by the locals? Hearing this question from Khrushchev, I couldn't help but get a headache. I said that you can't think of a good way. Can I, a layman, still think of it?

Khrushchev saw that I hadn't answered for a long time, thinking that I was thinking about how to solve it, so he didn't urge me. After a while, he asked, "How is it, Lida, have you thought of a good way?"

Seeing that I cannot escape the answer to this question, I can only bite the bullet and say: "Comrade Khrushchev, as far as I know, if the locals want to resist reconstruction, there are two measures we can take..."

"Oh, there are two ways." Hearing this, Khrushchev couldn't help but interject: "Hurry up and listen."

I smiled bitterly, and my heart said that if you don’t interrupt me, I have already expressed my own thoughts: "The first way is to divide. Take the approach of pulling one faction against one faction to win over and support the pro-Soviet locals. People, entrust them with heavy responsibility, and let them deal with those who oppose us..."

"It's not bad, you have a good idea." Khrushchev exclaimed, "Go on."

"Another way is to draw a salary from the bottom of the pot." When I started to make suggestions for Khrushchev, I spoke more fluently than before. I thought that this was a private conversation between the two of us, so I said without hesitation: "You will Those who are likely to cause trouble are called into the army. This can not only supplement the soldiers we lost in the battle, but also eliminate local instability."

"It's great, it's great!" After listening to my advice, Khrushchev said excitedly: "Lida, I didn't expect your opinion to coincide with mine. I am like this too. I think, as long as there are no serious illnesses, those 18 to 50-year-old men will be added to our army to fill the soldiers lost in the battle. As long as these people leave, I believe that the remaining people will even want to resist the reconstruction. It’s hard to support work, too."

Khrushchev talked a few more words with me, and then hung up the phone. I walked to the door and said to Rebarko who was smoking outside: "General Rebarko, my call is over, you all come in."

When Rebarko and I walked into the headquarters together, while others were not paying attention, he asked me in a low voice: "Lida, Comrade Khrushchev called you, do you want you to work somewhere? ?"

I shook my head quickly and said, "No, Comrade Khrushchev did not invite me to work elsewhere. He called me to tell me that in two days he will be transferred to work. Kryinyukov will be solely responsible for political work."

"Oh, it turns out that's the case." Rebalko nodded, raised his hand in a please gesture, and motioned me to sit down before continuing.

"Yes, yes, you have a good idea." Khrushchev repeatedly exclaimed while recording: "You go on to say ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Another way is to draw salary from the bottom." I began to make suggestions for Khrushchev. At that time, my speech was much more fluent than before. I thought that this was a private conversation between the two of us, so I said without any hesitation: "You call all those who might cause trouble to the army. This can complement us. The soldiers lost in the battle must also be able to eliminate local instability factors."

"It's great, it's great!" After listening to my advice, Khrushchev said excitedly: "Lida, I didn't expect your opinion to coincide with mine. I am like this too. I think, as long as there are no serious illnesses, those 18 to 50-year-old men will be added to our army to fill the soldiers lost in the battle.
