Burning Moscow

We crossed the Pilica River from the pontoon and drove along the road that was stepped on the ground. After driving for about five kilometers, I saw a village in front of me. Looking from a distance, many of our soldiers are walking back and forth in the village.

In order to be safe and avoid the danger that just happened again, Cui Kefu ordered a staff officer to take a three-wheeled motorcycle and go to the village in front to find out the situation.

Ten minutes later, the staff officer returned on his motorcycle, followed by a jeep behind him. After the staff officer got out of the car in front of us, he raised his hand and saluted and reported to Cui Kefu: "Comrade Commander, I have invited the commander of the Guards Division."

A middle-aged officer with a small beard and a short leather army coat came out of the jeep behind. He came to the armored car. Before we could ask, he raised his hand in salute and reported respectfully. "Comrade General, Colonel Sheykin, commander of the 220th regiment of the 79th Guards Division, report to you. I am waiting for your order. Please give instructions!"

After Cui Kefu raised his hand to return the salute, he raised his head and asked, "Colonel, where is your division commander General Wajin?"

"Report to Comrade Commander," Sheykin heard Trikov’s question and hurriedly replied: "The division command has moved forward to the Moglinitsa-Novo Miasto highway. Our regiment is the guard of the entire division. , After waiting for friendly forces to take over the defense here, they will immediately catch up with the main force of the division."

"I see." After listening to Cui Kefu, he waved to Sheyijin and ordered: "You go back to the village. We will continue to move forward now to see if we can catch up with your teacher."

Sheykin heard Cui Kefu say this, and enthusiastically kept us: "Comrade Commander, it's still early anyway, it's better to go to the village for a cup of tea. Drink a cup of black tea with honey, and the whole body will become warm. ."

To Sheykin’s enthusiasm, Cui Kefu politely refused: “No, we still have important things, so we won’t go to the village. Comrade Colonel, after the defense is handed over, you can also catch up as soon as possible.” He finished. Turning his head and telling the driver: "Drive!"

Our convoy passed through the village and continued along the road. It was unexpectedly discovered that not all the officers and men of the 220th Guards Regiment were staying in the village. Some people were already marching along the road to the place where the fighting was fierce.

The convoy drove a further distance, and suddenly I faintly smelled a faint smell of alcohol in the car, so I asked, "Who is drinking? Why is there a smell of alcohol?"

Hearing what I said, the few people sitting next to me all shook their noses, wanting to hear if there was a real smell of alcohol in the car. After a while, Cui Kefu nodded and said, "Yes, I also smelled alcohol."

The driver of the armored vehicle and the machine gunner quickly argued: "Comrade General, we didn't drink."

"Yes, yes, there is indeed a smell of alcohol." At this moment, Pronin stood up to be fair to the two fighters: "But the smell of alcohol didn't appear when someone in the car drank, but came in from outside. "As he said, he leaned forward and looked out from the observation port for a while, and then said confidently, "It seems that my judgment is correct. The smell of wine really comes in from outside. There is a winery on the right front of the road."

"The winery?" After hearing Pronin's words, Cui Koff frowned, and the staff officer sitting next to him handed out a map, pointed to a certain place and said to him: "Comrade Commander, that's right. There is a winery near the village of Recuff. Based on the analysis of the route of the car, we should be near this village now."

"Stop," Cui Kefu waited for the staff to finish, and immediately told the driver: "Let's go down and have a look."

Our group got out of the car and saw that not far from the roadside, there were several large wooden houses surrounded by wooden fences. People in workers' clothing were constantly carrying wooden barrels and the like. We had just walked a few steps towards them, when someone in the crowd yelled something. Hearing his shout, those who were working immediately threw away their things and fled in all directions.

Seeing this scene, all of us were stunned. I looked at Cui Kefu, then at the guard company following us, and asked cautiously: "General Cui Kefu, is it because we have too many people and frighten these workers?"

"No." Seeing the workers running around like a ghost, Cui Kefu was also at a loss: "If I'm not mistaken, when General Wakin passed by here, the troops he brought were definitely better than ours. Much more. The Poles didn't run away at the time, and now we see our 100-odd people, what are you going to do?"

The staff officer stepped forward and grabbed a worker who was running past us, and asked loudly, "Do you know Russian here?"

The worker shook his head desperately, then pointed his finger into the distance, screaming in panic. I looked in the direction of his fingers, and saw that at the edge of the forest in the distance, a dense crowd appeared, which was particularly eye-catching against the snowy background.

I raised my hand and grabbed the binoculars hung around the staff's neck and looked into the distance. After I could see the people on the edge of the forest, I was also taken aback. I quickly shouted: "Germans, there are Germans on the edge of the forest in the distance!"

"What, this is the rear of our army, and the Germans who have emerged from there?" Cui Kefu took up the binoculars and looked into the distance with a puzzled face. After a while, he couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, what a hell. Where did these **** Germans emerge from, there are a total of two thousand people."

When I looked at it, I felt that the number of German troops was quite large, but the specific number had not yet been estimated. At this moment, I heard the numbers mentioned by Cui Kefu, and I couldn’t help being shocked. I said that we only have a guard company of more than 100 people here, plus the few troops of the 220th Guards Regiment that are marching on the road, it’s only two or three. A hundred people are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of number.

Just as I was considering whether to smear the soles of my feet, I heard Cui Koff calling out loudly: "Comrades, don’t panic. The Germans are at least one kilometer away from us. Before they come, we can build defense."

The commanders, who were panicked, immediately calmed down after hearing what Cui Kefu said. They were scattered and concealed beside the wooden house, behind the fence, and in the snowdrifts, and aimed their weapons. The enemy is coming towards us.

Although we have already started preparing for the war, Cui Koff drove me and Pronin back to the armored vehicle for safety reasons. According to him, if we can't beat it, this armored vehicle can take us to escape. In addition, he also sent staff officers back to the village just passed by on a motorcycle, and informed Colonel Sheykin that he would lead the troops to reinforce us.

I stood at the door of the armored vehicle, raised my binoculars and looked at the approaching German soldiers, and found that they were neither in an offensive formation nor in a marching formation, but crowded together without formation, deep and shallow. Walk towards us with one foot. The scene before me reminded me of the defense of Stalingrad that year. When our troops were defeated and retreated from the front, they were just like they are now.

Seeing this, I put down my binoculars and said loudly to Cui Kefu who was standing on a snowdrift outside the car: "General Cui Kefu, I think this enemy may have been defeated from somewhere. We must find a way to block them. We must not let them. They go to join the main force."

After hearing this, Cui Kefu nodded, put down his binoculars and walked down from the snowdrift, came to the door of the car, and said to the operator sitting inside: "Contact the nearby troops and say that we have encountered the enemy with the advantage. , Let them come and support us immediately."

When the German army was still five or six hundred meters away from us, it might have discovered that the village had been occupied by our army and stopped in place. After making some adjustments, he rushed towards the sparse defensive position of our army.

The commanders of our army were very calm, facing the swarthy German officers and soldiers, they did not show the slightest panic, but stayed motionless in their concealed position, aiming and rushing over with their weapons. Enemy.

When the enemy was still two hundred meters away from us, Cui Kefu raised his hand high above his head, then slammed down and shouted: "Fire!"

Following his order, the machine gun on the armored vehicle behind us fired. A series of bullets passed over our heads and flew towards the German formation in the distance. The shells that jumped out of the magazine clanged and landed on the armored body.

The gunfire was the command. Hearing that the machine guns on the armored vehicles had begun to fire at the enemy, the commanders and fighters who had been waiting for it also pulled the trigger one after another, and the gunshots resembling beans suddenly sounded. In the rain of bullets pouring frantically by our commanders and fighters, a cloud of blood exploded from the dense German offensive formation. The bullets pierced their bodies and tore their flesh and blood, and blood splashed on the bodies and faces of the people next to them. Countless flesh and blood bodies tremble under the rain of bullets, and the corpses are like broken pockets thrown out, turned over under the huge impact of bullets. But the alive still howled and continued to rush forward, ignoring that their own feet were already covered with the bodies of their companions.

Cui Kefu turned his head and glanced at me, and then said: "Lida, I didn't expect that your guard company is really not weak in combat effectiveness. The momentum displayed by more than a hundred people can match a battalion of ordinary troops."

Listening to what Cui Koff said, I remembered that for my safety, Zhukov’s troops sent to **** me were equipped with assault rifles. The effect of this weapon on the German group charge could not be better. Under the circumstances, it is possible that one can penetrate several people.

After my guard company repelled the German army’s first assault, just as the German army retreated to the edge of the forest to recuperate, Sheykin, who received the news, took their troops back to the side of the German army, unexpectedly launched a swift impact, and succeeded Cut off the enemy's retreat.

Seeing that their retreat was cut off, the German soldiers fled out of the forest in a panic, trying to break through from the direction of the winery again. When they were not far away, suddenly a few plumes of smoke rose up on the snowy ground, and soldiers who were closer to the plume were overturned to the ground. It looked like they had been shelled.

"Strange, where is the gun firing?" With doubt, I raised my telescope and looked around. I saw more than a dozen tanks coming quickly along the highway to the west. They crossed the direction of the guard company and rushed towards the German soldiers trapped in the middle of the snow top.

Seeing that their retreat was cut off, and a group of tanks rushed in front of them, the resistance of the German army suddenly disappeared, and immediately many soldiers threw away their weapons, raised their hands high, and rushed towards the tank troops and The commanders of the 220th Guards Regiment surrendered.

Due to this unexpected encounter, we did not go forward immediately, but stayed to interrogate the captured German officers and soldiers. There were a total of 1,500 prisoners from different forces. They were retreating westward because they had lost contact with the higher-level command. Because they did not know the retreat route, were lost in the snow and forest, and lacked a unified command, they would use such a dense formation after encountering us to launch an offensive similar to the death of us. .
