Burning Moscow

Early the next morning, a car and two guards were sent to the women’s health company station in the western suburbs of Lublin. .

The resident of the Health Company is a small church, and several soldiers are standing guard under the stairs of the church. Seeing me getting off the jeep, a male second lieutenant greeted me and raised his hand to salute me. At the same time, he said, "Comrade General, I am Second Lieutenant Bai Likai of the Women's Health Company. I will obey your orders. Please direct!"

After raising my hand to return a gift, I looked at the soldiers walking around and found that there were four male soldiers out of the six. I frowned and asked, "Comrade Lieutenant, isn’t this a female health company? Why is there such a thing? Many male soldiers."

Seeing my eyes on the soldiers on duty, the second lieutenant immediately understood the meaning of my question and quickly explained: "Comrade General, in order to avoid unnecessary harassment of the female soldiers trained here, the superior sent me to take A squad of male soldiers came to take charge of the security work here."

I didn't ask what kind of harassment the female soldiers would face, but I asked myself: "Where is the commander in the company?"

"Should still be sleeping inside," the ensign replied.

I raised my hand and looked at my watch. It was half past eight, but the female soldiers of the health company were still asleep. She couldn't help but feel annoyed. She unceremoniously told Bai Likai: "Comrade Lieutenant, I'll be waiting here. They, you immediately send someone to call them out."

The second lieutenant nodded, and then ran to a female soldier and whispered a few words to her. After the female soldier looked at me in astonishment, she turned her head and ran up the steps of the church, opened the huge wooden door and jumped in.

I walked back and forth next to the jeep with my hands on my back, waiting patiently for the commander of the health company to appear. Second Lieutenant Bai Likai stood with the two guards who escorted me here, watching me quietly, not even daring to say a word.

After the church door was reopened, two neatly dressed female officers followed the female soldier just now and ran down the steps. When the two came to me, they pulled the hem of their clothes, tidied their military caps, and then raised their hands to salute: "Comrade General, Lieutenant Nina (Instructor Lieutenant Ulanova) of the Women’s Health Company was ordered to report. ,Please advise!"

"Nina? Ulanova?" After I saw the two female officers standing in front of me clearly, I said in surprise, "So it's you!"

"Lida, it's Lida!" After hesitating for a while, the two immediately cheered, and rushed to hug me warmly. At the same time, they said excitedly: "Lida, I didn't expect to see you here. ."

I didn’t expect to meet my former comrades in the Volkhov Front here. After I let go of the two, I looked them up and down, and said with a smile: "I haven’t seen you for two years, you both are already Officer."

"You are still great," Nina looked at me and said enviously: "You are now an admiral!"

Ulanova quickly stabilized her emotions and asked about my intentions: "Lida, what are you doing here today?"

Of course I wouldn’t tell them that I was sent here, so I could only change the subject and ask: “How about it, those newly recruited girls, are you manageable?”

"It's okay!" Hearing this question, Nina's face flashed a haze, "These girls are all found from the school, very easy to manage. But..."

Seeing her was halfway through, I stopped abruptly. I knew there must be something hidden in it, and I quickly asked: "Nina, but what? If there is anything, just tell me, I will definitely help you."

"Can you really help us?" Ulanova's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked: "You must know that the person's position is not low. If you help us, are you afraid to offend them?"

I looked at Ulanova in front of me, thinking that he was almost occupied by the chief of staff of the division back then, but he escaped with my shelter. I didn’t expect the newly established women’s health company to face the same situation. problem. Now with my position, it is easy to help them within the front army, so I calmly said: "Ulanova, what trouble you have encountered, just tell me, I will be the master for you. ."

"Since the Women's Health Company stationed here, every night, there are always many officers who come here to find our soldiers, let them go out to drink and dance with them, etc." Ulanova said with an embarrassed expression on her face. I explained: "Because these officers have relatively high positions, it is difficult for us to stop them."

Ulanova’s remarks made me suddenly think that Rokosovsky sent me to manage the women’s health company, perhaps not to punish me, but to let me deal with these things that are difficult to put on the table. . I turned my gaze to Nina next to me and asked, "Nina, it's because of this that you reported to your superiors and found a male soldier squad to serve as the guard here?"

Nina nodded and said with difficulty: "Yes, Lida, our original intention was like this at the time. Although the male soldiers came and helped the female soldiers to block many uninvited guests,..."

"But there is still someone who can't stop it, right?" I asked in the first place.

"That's it," Nina said affirmatively. "In the past, there were officers of all levels, from ensign to general. Since the male squad came, lieutenant-level officers have not come, and school-level officers have come fewer. Only the generals have yet to come to us. As you know, our level is too low to refuse the orders given by the generals."

"Okay, Nina, don't talk about it anymore, I already understand what's going on." I interrupted Nina's words and called the second lieutenant officer named Bai Likai. I faced the three officers of the health company and said with a serious expression: "From now on until the female soldiers are assigned to the field hospital, no matter what level of officers, if you want to transfer our Soldiers are not allowed to take them away. Did you hear clearly?"

"But, Comrade General." After turning to look at the two female colleagues next to him, Bai Likai asked worriedly: "If the general comes here in person, I don't think we will be able to hold them."

"Comrade Lieutenant, I am authorizing you now that no man is allowed to enter this church unless there is a warrant from me, understand?"

"Comrade General, can you tell me, what is your position in the front army?" Bai Likai is a serious person, although I have already said it clearly, he still stubbornly asked: "This way someone tried Only when I forcibly break in can I be able to stop the opponent."

"Second Lieutenant Bai Likai, you are a very loyal soldier, which makes me very pleased." After I praised Bai Likai, I then stated my identity: "I am the deputy commander of the front army. Anyone who attempts to use their power to break into this place, you can record their names, military ranks, and positions they hold, and I will take care of the rest."

"Understood, Comrade Deputy Commander of the Front Army." Bai Likai waited for me to reveal his identity, and immediately replied with confidence: "I will resolutely execute your order and prevent a man from entering the church."

I have no intention of staying here to worry about the trivial matters of the health company, because according to what I know about Nina and Ulanova, as long as there is no one to harass, they will handle everything properly.

After saying goodbye to the two, I returned to the jeep and sat in the seat of the co-pilot, and told the driver: "Drive!"

The driver turned his face and asked me politely: "Comrade Deputy Commander, I don't know where you are going?"

"Go to the headquarters of the 70th Army." The health company's affairs have come to an end. I think it is time to go to the combat troops to see and communicate with the two commanders of the army to learn about the enemy and ourselves on the battlefield from them. Situation so that a suitable combat plan can be worked out.

After more than three hours of turbulence, I was drowsy and suddenly heard the driver yell in surprise: "Comrade Deputy Commander, look quickly, Brest Fortress is here."

I quickly opened my eyes and looked around out of the car window. I saw a large red fortress on the opposite side of a big river on the right. I originally thought that Brest Fortress was a small-scale walled city. At this time, I discovered that from the outside, it was at least comparable to a medium-sized city.

The driver was afraid that I didn’t know the Brest Fortress, so he specifically asked me to popularize science: “This was originally the city of Brest. After the Czar occupied this place, he moved the original city to the east three kilometers to the east in order to build the fortress. It has been expanded and built many times, and it has become a huge fortification fortification. It consists of four independent islands separated by the Bug River and the artificial canal. The central castle is located in the center of the entire fortification area. The southwest of the central fortress is Terespo The fortress of Er, just to the south is the Fortress of Warren, and the fortress of Kobrin serves as a barrier to the north. The fortresses are surrounded by rivers and connected by bridges.

When the Great Patriotic War broke out, this was the first place that was attacked by the Germans. It is said that our troops resisted here for almost a month and contained a large number of German troops. You see, the Terspol Gate is in front, from here you can enter the fortress. "

I saw a long bridge connecting the Terspol Gate in front of me, and quickly told the driver, "Comrade driver, park the car by the bridge, I want to see this heroic fortress."

The driver parked the car by the bridge, I pushed the door and got out of the car, looking at the fortress on the opposite side across the wide Bug River. I saw four or five soldiers standing guard at the gate of Terspor Gate. The wall behind them was densely packed with fist-sized craters, as if they had been hit by a meteor shower.

I stared at the fortress gate on the other side of the river in a daze, as if seeing a group of ragged and wounded commanders, under the **** of the German army, walked out of the fortress with a dull expression. A German military officer stood at the top of the bridge, shouting in broken Russian: "Jews, political commissars, get out!"

The Fuming political commissar, who was seriously injured, was supported by the two soldiers. He just walked onto the stone bridge. Hearing the shouts of the officers, he broke free of the soldiers who supported him, tidyed up his military appearance, and came to the officer’s face. Changedly said: "I am a Jew, a political commissar, and a party member!"

After squinting at him for a while, the German officer beckoned to the soldier standing next to him. Two soldiers immediately stepped forward to set up Fuming and dragged him to the wall. After he stood against the wall, the German soldier pushed him. In the last two steps, holding the submachine gun in his hand, he fired at Fuming, whose back was leaning against the wall...

When I was thinking about Fluttering, I suddenly felt that someone next to me was shaking my arm, and at the same time I approached my ear and shouted loudly, "Comrade Deputy Commander!"

The shouting awakened me from my contemplation. I turned my head to look at the driver standing next to me, and asked curiously: "Comrade driver, what's the matter with you?"

"Comrade Deputy Commander, look at the other side." The driver pointed to the other side and said with some dissatisfaction: "Those sentries standing guard at the gate of the fortress actually gave us a new number, saying that we are not allowed to stay here, let us immediately Leave. Do you think you want me to take a soldier to teach them a lesson?"

I looked in the direction of the driver's finger, and I saw a soldier standing on the bridge head opposite, waving the red and green signal flags in his hand at us, beckoning us to leave here quickly. Originally, I thought of visiting the fortress, but when I thought that some time ago, two college-level officers of the 70th Army were inspecting inside and were killed by hidden puppet soldiers, so I retreated.

At this moment, seeing the soldier on the opposite side signal us to leave, I said in a smooth way: "No, I've seen everything that I should see, so let's go."

Seeing that I was calm, the driver had no choice but to say unwillingly: "Well, Comrade Deputy Commander, since you don't want to care about them, then forget it this time. I will never meet these people next time. I will spare them lightly."

Hearing the driver's harsh words, I just smiled faintly, turned over and walked back to the car. After he was seated again, I urged him: "Comrade driver~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Let’s drive! If you drive faster, we can still catch up with lunch at the headquarters of the 70th Army. ."

Our car drove a short distance forward, and was stopped by two oncoming armored vehicles. An officer and four soldiers walked towards us, came to our car, and asked unceremoniously: "Which part of you are you?"

I pushed the car door, leaned out half of my body, and looked at the officer and said, "Comrade Commander, I am General Oshanina, Deputy Commander of the Front Army. I have something to go to see your group commander Rezhov. Can you show me the way?"

The officer slapped to attention on the spot, raised his hand to salute, and respectfully said: "Comrade Deputy Commander, it is my honour to be able to lead you." After speaking, he trot back to the armored vehicle with the soldiers.

After two armored vehicles turned in front of us, they drove down the road and guided us to the headquarters of Ryzhov.
