Burning Moscow

Cui Kefu saluted Golddorf with a sullen face, then turned and walked out. I didn't dare to neglect, and after a hurried salute to the three generals in the room, I followed suit and walked out.

Golddorf's summoning was really inexplicable. He called Cui Koff from the front line to Stalingrad, without saying anything else, just to ask him why he allowed the troops to retreat. One thing that could have been done on the phone, but he had to let his subordinates put him down. The work in my hands, coming to the headquarters to be reprimanded, is simply boring to the extreme.

I walked out of Golddorf's office with the angrily Cui Kefu. The commanders who were still waiting outside the door cast sympathetic glances at us. It is estimated that these people have suffered the same fate.

Cuikov walked out of the headquarters without a word. As soon as he got into the jeep, he commanded the driver with a sullen face: "Drive, go back to the observation post in Kirskaya immediately."

As soon as I saw Cui Kefu getting into the car in the rearview mirror, I closed my eyes and leaned on the back of the chair and closed my eyes to rest. I also secretly relieved. After all, I just saw the embarrassment of Cui Kefu being reprimanded. Persuade, in front of the driver, many things are inconvenient to say; don’t persuade, it seems a bit unsatisfactory. Now that he closes his eyes to rest up his mind, I have avoided this embarrassing situation where persuasion is neither non-persuasion nor non-persuasion.

Our car drove out of the car. I plan to wait for Cui Kefu to calm down before asking him about my next steps. Unexpectedly, as soon as we arrived at the first checkpoint, we were stopped. A captain in the lead car got off the car and said a few words to the people at the checkpoint. He trot to the side of our car, raised his hand and saluted, and reported to Cui Kefu: "Report to Comrade Commander, we were checked at the checkpoint. The soldiers stopped. Although I identified our identity and showed the necessary documents, they still refused to let us pass."

Hearing the captain's report, Cui Kefu, who closed his eyes, opened his eyes suddenly, pushed the car door and walked off, scolding the captain, "Comrade Captain, didn't you tell them that we need to go to the front line immediately?"

The captain replied with a bitter face, "Comrade Commander. I have said all of this, but the sergeant in charge of the checkpoint said he was ordered to stop us."

Seeing Cui Kefu angry at his subordinates, I pushed the door and got out of the car, walked to Cui Kefu's side, and said in a low voice, "Comrade Commander, this matter will be handled by me. I will ask what happened. whats the matter?"

Cui Kefu nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead and ask why the checkpoint stopped us. Remember. Be better. Don't get angry with the soldiers. I guess they are also acting on orders."

After listening to Cui Koff's words, I couldn't help feeling a little nervous, especially when I heard the last sentence, it made me think about it. What is meant by following orders means that their actions have been authorized by their superiors. They were ordered to stop our car. Could it be that Golddorf suddenly wanted to investigate Trikov's troops retreating without authorization. Someone should be sent to arrest Cui Kefu, because we were afraid that he would run away, so we ordered the checkpoints along the way to stop us? Thinking of this, my legs were all weakened in shock. Some don't go, and have volunteered to ask for life in front of Cui Kefu. If you retreat at this time, it will leave him a bad impression.

I bite the bullet and walked to the soldiers at the checkpoint, my eyes swept over them, and finally stared at the soldier with the highest rank, and asked solemnly: "Comrade sergeant. I want to ask, why should I stop it? Our convoy? You know, General Cuikov is sitting in the car. He needs to rush back to the front line to direct the battle."

The sergeant saluted me and replied politely: "I'm sorry, Comrade Commander, I also acted on orders."

"By order, whose order?"

"It's an order from the Garrison Headquarters, Comrade Commander." The sergeant explained politely: "The checkpoints that let us along the way in the order, after seeing General Cui Kefu's convoy, must temporarily keep them."

"Do you know the reason?"

The sergeant shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Comrade Commander, I don't know, I'm just following orders."

"Comrade sergeant, maybe you have received a forged order from saboteurs. I suggest you check with your superiors immediately, so as not to delay our business affairs."

Hearing what I said, the sergeant hesitated, pondered for a moment, and replied, "Comrade Commander, please wait a moment and I will make a call." After I nodded for permission, he turned and ran into the guard box on the side of the road. Pick up the phone and start dialing.

Without much effort, the sergeant put down the phone and ran over all the way. He came to me and said with a serious expression: "Report to Comrade Commander, I just called to confirm that the superior did issue an order to ask General Cui Kefu to stay. Not only my checkpoint, but all the checkpoints in the city are The same order was received. In other words, even if I let General Cuikov pass, he would be stopped at the next checkpoint."

"Do you know the reason?" I asked the same question a second time.

Fortunately, this time the sergeant did not answer that he did not know, but truthfully replied: "Comrade commander, I just asked, saying that the front army command has an order to convey to General Cui Kefu, because he was afraid that he would not be able to contact him on the road, so he had to let him The checkpoint will keep him temporarily. At present, the chief of staff of the front army is rushing here with orders."

After understanding the reason why the checkpoint was blocking us, I returned to Cui Kefu and reported the matter to him as it was.

After hearing this, Cui Kefu frowned and muttered to himself: "What will happen? You know, when I was in the headquarters just now, Commander Golddorf, but he didn't say anything." He finished here, look. When I was standing straight in front of him, I quickly smiled and said, "Comrade Oshanina, don't be nervous, there should be nothing serious. Let's return to the car and wait."

While we were waiting anxiously, a jeep drove along our path and stopped not far from us. The door opened and several people came down at the same time. In addition to the chief of staff of the front army, Major General Nikishev, there was also a tall major general and a school-level officer. Nikishev and the general walked towards us, while the school-level officer walked towards the checkpoint.

Trikov and I pushed the door and got out of the car, and walked over to Nikishev and the others. Cui Koff said loudly, "Hello, General Nikishev. I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."

Nikishev squeezed an ugly smile on his face, and said in a rusty tone: "Yes, General Cuikov, I didn't expect to see each other so soon." After that, he turned slightly to his side and pointed to the side next to him. The major general said to Cui Kefu: "Come on, Comrade Cui Kefu, let me introduce you. This is the new commander of the 64th Army, General Shumilov. General Shumilov, this is your deputy, the deputy commander of the Army. General Cui Kefu."

Hearing what Nikishev said, I realized that Trikov was only a deputy commander. Just as I was surprised, Nikishev went on to say: "General Shumilov, as you know, the commander of the 64th Army turned out to be General Golddorf. He was the highest The High Command was summoned to Moscow and was quickly appointed as the commander of the front army. Therefore, the work of the 64th Army has been in charge of the deputy commander, Comrade Cui Kefu."

I thought Cui Kefu would be a little embarrassed, but after listening to the introduction, he still had a calm expression, and he saluted General Shumilov very generously, then reached out and said politely: "Hello , Comrade Commander. You are welcome to work in the 64th Army."

Shumilov also smiled and shook hands with Trikov, then turned his head and said to Nikishev: "Comrade Chief of Staff~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Thank you for sending me here. Please come back, and I will be Cuikov. Comrade’s car goes back to the front line together."

Nikishev nodded, and after shaking hands with the two one by one, he turned and went back to his own car.

At this time, the checkpoint has received an order from Nikishev's subordinate, the school-level officer, to remove the obstacles at the intersection and let our convoy pass.

I was still sitting in the co-pilot position of Cui Koff's car, so I could hear the conversation between the two commanders and deputy commanders in time.

Cui Kefu asked: "Comrade Commander, what is our next task?"

Shumilov said: "According to the combat order designated by the Front Army Headquarters, we will carry out an assault on the enemy at the same time as the 62nd Army at 2 o'clock in the morning on the 29th to annihilate the two areas in the Upper Buzinovka and Chil River area An enemy army group. In order to achieve the purpose of this campaign, we will use the newly strengthened infantry 204th division and tank 23rd corps."
