Burning Moscow

These so-called rebels who suffered a double strike before and after did not have too strong will to fight. Many people stopped in place, threw away their weapons, and raised their hands high in an attempt to save their lives.

The wish is good, but the reality is cruel. The German soldiers attacking the camp may have received an order to kill them, regardless of whether the Azerbaijani soldiers are resisting or throwing away their weapons and raising their hands to surrender. They still shoot indiscriminately. In this way, the soldiers with their bare hands fell into pieces under the fierce shooting of the German army.

Fortunately, the soldiers who were not hit by the bullet found that no matter whether they surrendered or not, they could not escape the fate of death. They picked up the weapons thrown beside them and shot back on the ground.

The camp was full of joy, and the position where Oleg's Department was located was also very fierce. Dozens of soldiers rushed towards them in an attempt to open a breach, but they were overwhelmed by the firepower of our army. , And the rest was hit by the intensive firepower, lying on the ground and unable to raise their heads. We are alone here, and there is no one who fled to us except for the German inspection team who just ran over and was killed by us.

Although Grams called his superiors, the expression on his face was still very unnatural, giving people a feeling of sadness. I glared at him several times, but didn’t see him, so I could only say to him displeasedly: “Captain Grams, please remember that these SS who were killed by us are Hitler’s loyal lackeys. They are not only the enemy of the Soviet people, but also the enemy of the German people. Only by eliminating all these fascists can Germany be reborn."

Although my remarks are a bit nondescript. But Grams obviously listened. After he squeezed a smile on his face that was worse than crying. Ask me: "Your Excellency, what shall we do next?"

I looked at the hot camp with a binoculars, and said casually: "We continue to guard here to prevent the defeated Azerbaijani soldiers from breaking through from our direction when they are desperate."

"Will they break through from here?" Mikhayev asked in disbelief.

"Yes, they will." I said affirmatively. In order to convince them, I also specifically stated my reasons. "The remnants of Azerbaijan saw that the retreat between the east and the west was cut off. If they go south, they will inevitably face more German resistance, and if they flee north, they will encounter much less resistance, so they will jump out of the German forces. The probability of range is very high. Then they can pretend to be a small unit of our army that has been broken up and mix into our army's defense zone."

Hearing what I said, the third company commander was shocked. He quickly asked me for instructions: "Comrade commander, do I need to adjust the two rows on the hillside?"

I waved. Rejected his suggestion: "No, comrade company commander. Let them stay on the hillside to serve as the reserve team. Let's talk about it when this platoon can't stop the enemy's attack." After that, I turned my head to grumble again. Muss said, "Captain Grams, don't call me the commander in the future. It sounds too awkward. You can call me commander or comrade commander like other commanders."

After listening to Mikhayev's translation, Grams nodded and said: "Okay, comrade teacher, I understand."

My worries did not become reality. The officers and soldiers of the Azerbaijani battalion, under the double blow of the German army and the Oleg Ministry, did not hold on for long, and they came to the brink of being annihilated. The sound of guns on the battlefield became sparse, and German tanks lined up in the camp, and soldiers carrying weapons entered one tent after another to search for survivors. Seeing this scene, I secretly criticized the Germans as idiots. You don’t know how to use tanks to knock down the tents. You have to go in and inspect them one by one. If the survivors hidden inside shoot and shoot, don’t you have to pay unnecessary sacrifices? .

But on second thought, the casualties of the German officers and soldiers are my shit. The more they die, the better. At least the attack on Stalingrad has been weakened. I raised my hand and looked at my watch. It was already two o'clock in the morning. I quickly turned around and ordered the third company commander to get in touch with Oleg immediately.

I said to the microphone: "Lieutenant Colonel Oleg, your mission has been completed. Except for a platoon with a good German level, the rest of the commanders and fighters took the spoils and withdrew back to the station."

When Oleg heard this order from me, he couldn't help but stunned for a moment, and then muttered: "Comrade Commander, can I ask, why is this?"

"Don't you understand, comrade lieutenant colonel?" When I heard his questioning of my order, I couldn't help becoming harsher. "The German army knows that there is only one company in the station's garrison, but if they come and find you There are actually more than two hundred people, so don’t you wear them?"

Oleg suddenly realized that, and quickly replied: "Comrade Commander, I understand, I will lead a large army to leave here with the spoils."

After putting down the earphones and the microphone, I said to Grams next to me: "Captain Grams, we will take this platoon later, to meet the platoon left by Lieutenant Colonel Oleg, and overturn in the train. Place, waiting for the commander of the German army to come over."

After listening, Grams also readily agreed: "Okay, comrade teacher, I will follow your instructions!"

After a few minutes, Oleg and his troops came along the railway. Seeing that almost everyone of the soldiers carried several guns on their backs, and many even carried wooden boxes on their shoulders, it seemed that their results were not small.

When Oleg passed by my side, he took the initiative to stop and report to me: "Report to the commander that he successfully destroyed the German troop train in succession. We killed all the German devils on the train, and none of them slipped through the net. "

"Good job!" I nodded in satisfaction, and then asked, "How about the casualties of our troops?"

"A dozen soldiers were burned by fire when they were on the train, but the injuries were not serious. As for the battle against the Azerbaijani battalion, it could not be called a battle, but a one-sided slaughter. In the battle, at least they were killed. Two hundred enemies, we did not have any casualties."

Hearing that there were no casualties in the army, I was secretly relieved, but I couldn't help but feel complacent. Annihilate thousands of enemies. Only a dozen people were injured. If the results of this kind of battle are reported, let alone me, even the commander of the group army will feel light on his face. However, the primary task at the moment is not to repay the merits, but to find a way to get rid of the Germans in the camp, so I told Oleg: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, there is nothing to do with you here. You take the soldiers back and hurry up. Rest, maybe there will be new combat missions for you after dawn."

After Oleg agreed loudly. Follow his troops along the railway towards the station.

After Oleg's troops passed, I said to the third company commander who had been on standby: "Well, comrade third company commander, you also take the two platoons on the hillside back to the station."

The third company commander didn't expect that I would give him such an order, and couldn't help but didn't respond from a distance. I thought he hadn't heard clearly, and repeated my order again. Then he reluctantly said: "Comrade Commander, let me go to the front with you. The army can ask the platoon leaders to take it back."

I wanted to reject him directly, but I saw his sincere gaze. After a short hesitation, he agreed to his request: "Okay. Comrade company commander, if this is the case, you can give orders to the other two platoon commanders to lead them back to the station." The third company commander listened. After that, he was about to run up the hillside with excitement, and I stopped him again.

He stopped and looked at me with a look of surprise, presumably thinking that I had changed the main thing again. I guessed that he might have misunderstood, and quickly told him: "Comrade company commander, after you have given the order to the two platoon commanders, remember to bring the bodies of these six Germans to the train."

The third company commander was confused by my inexplicable order. He scratched the back of his head and asked inexplicably: "Comrade Commander, why is this?"

"These Germans in the monitoring team were killed by the mutinous Azerbaijanis when they went to check near the overturned military train. The bodies were naturally placed near the train."

"But, these Germans are obviously by us..." Before the third company commander finished speaking, I gave him a fierce look. He immediately understood, and quickly straightened his body and promised: "I understand, teacher. Comrades, these Germans were all killed by the Azerbaijani rebels when they were checking by the train."

Seeing that he had understood what I meant, I nodded in satisfaction, waved at him and said, "Hurry up and give orders to your platoon leaders. We must try to put the body before the Germans go to the train to check. past."

The actions of the third company commander were quite swift. When Mikhayev and Grams, I walked to the side of the burning train car, and joined the platoon where Oleg left behind, he also carried a dozen fighters. Panting and ran over, threw the six German corpses beside the railway, and dragged a dozen from the corpses of the Azerbaijani soldiers and placed them next to the corpses of the German soldiers. An inspection team was arranged to be assassinated. Fake scene.

I originally thought that such an inferior scam could not be hidden from the shrewd Germans. I did not expect that when a small group of the German army came to the railway to check under the cover of two armored vehicles, Grams just stepped forward and said a few words. The opposing commander waved him away.

Seeing Grams running over, I quickly asked in a low voice, "Captain Grams, what's the matter?"

Grams also whispered: "The opposing commander said that they will take over the scene now. Let us return to the station immediately to prevent attacks by guerrillas and rebels." After that, he directed at the rest of the commanders and fighters. German shouted loudly: "Assemble all of you and rush back to the station at once."

After we got back to the station, I quickly contacted Sergeikov, who was acting for me. As soon as the phone was connected, I hurriedly asked: "Lieutenant Colonel Sergeikov, how is the situation on your side?"

"Comrade commander," Sergeikov replied excitedly: "Our sneak attack team bombarded the German and Georgian battalions separately. The enemy was really fooled and rushed out of the camp to pursue our team. Fortunately, something happened. The mines that were planted first delayed the enemy's time. Otherwise, our small team would really not be able to retreat."

"How about the casualties of the squad, and what kind of results have been achieved?"

"All the squad escaped safely and there were no casualties. Although the enemy discovered that it was his own misunderstanding shortly after the exchange of fire, the casualties on both sides were at least 300 people."

"Good job." At this point, I habitually raised my hand and looked at my watch. Seeing that it was already three o'clock in the morning, I said to him with concern: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, it's not early, so take a break. Right."

Ended the call with Sederikov. I called Oleg, Vellore, and my guard battalion commander Basmanov before me. Ask them: "Has the team we sent back?"

My words are spoken. Several people lowered their heads involuntarily, and after a while, Vellore replied in a low voice: "Report to the commander, there is no news about the team up to now. I guess it's more fortunate."

After listening to her, I sighed and said in a low voice: "You're right, they haven't heard anything yet. I guess they won't be able to come back. Vellore political commissar, wait until dawn, you send Several teams searched for their whereabouts, and even if they couldn't find anyone, they would find their bodies."

Vellore nodded and replied, "Yes, as soon as the day breaks, I will send someone to search for them."

I waved at a few people and said, "It's getting late, so go back and take time to rest. If you have anything to wait until dawn, we will talk about it."

After they all left, I sat at the table. Looking at the German map in front of me in a daze, I thought to myself that even if all 18 soldiers were sacrificed, our action tonight would be considered a victory. After all, we wiped out thousands of enemies.

While I was thinking, I listened sharply to the sound of rapid footsteps outside. The sentry standing outside the door had begun to ask loudly, but it was Vellore who had just left to answer, right next to the door of the headquarters. Pushed away violently, Vellore ran in with surprise on his face.

She stood in front of me, out of breath. She ran for a few steps, but she became so excited that she finally adjusted it. This was the rough-dressed opening and said: "Reporter, eighteen. The soldiers came back, not even a single one suffered minor injuries."

My eyes widened at first, my face looked incredible, and then I showed the same ecstasy as Vellore. Asked loudly: "Where are they? Take me over and have a look."

When Vellore and I were running side by side, they answered my question as they walked: "According to the soldiers, after completing their mission, they found that the retreat was cut off by the Germans, so they retreated to the south and circled the boss's circle. Back to the station."

When I saw the eighteen soldiers standing neatly in the square in front of the station again, I went up excitedly and punched everyone in the chest. After the beating, I walked back and forth in front of them a few times with my back on my back, then stopped and said excitedly to them: "Our heroes, welcome you back in triumph!" Then I turned my head and called the commander next to him: "Oh. Lieutenant Colonel Legge, Political Commissar of Vellore."

When the two heard me calling them, they hurriedly stepped forward and replied loudly, "Here!"

I was so excited that I said incoherently: "Report the names of all the eighteen fighters, and I will ask for credit for them, and I will ask the commander to honor them personally!"

Hearing what I said, Oleg and Vellore replied: "Yes! I follow your instructions."

However, the eighteen soldiers replied loudly and unanimously: "I am willing to serve the Soviet motherland!"

The safe return of the eighteen soldiers made me let go of the big stone in my heart. As soon as I returned to the headquarters, I couldn't wait to order Shura to contact the group army headquarters and report the results of tonight's battle quickly.

After contacting the command of the Group Army, it was not Cui Koff who answered the call, but Colonel Ruskin, Chief of Staff. Maybe it’s because every time I report good news in the dead of night, Raskin was interrupted by me in time to sleep, but it didn’t happen. Instead, he asked patiently: "Dear Oshanina, you are so Call me late, does it bring me any good news?"

"Yes, Comrade Chief of Staff." Since it was the Annunciation, I didn't hide it, but said straightforwardly: "Tonight, the troops of my division attacked decisively and attacked the north and south stations located in Aboganerovo. The camps of the German and Dongfang battalions in both directions have achieved brilliant results, so they specifically reported victory to the headquarters."

"Oshanina, please wait a moment, I'll find a pen and paper to record." Raskin's voice disappeared from the earphone for a short time, and it sounded again, "Okay, I'm ready, you can say it. !"

"Tonight we destroyed the railway and made a German army full of soldiers track it. After the train capsized, the troops ambushing nearby attacked decisively and wiped out all the surviving German troops on the car. Although no final results have been counted, it can To be sure, none of the German soldiers in the two battalions on the military ranks was spared."

"How about the casualties of your troops?" Raskin asked habitually.

Hearing this question from him, I said triumphantly: “Report to Comrade Chief of Staff that we have only a dozen soldiers slightly injured.”

"What. Only a dozen soldiers were slightly injured?" Raskin asked in surprise.

"Yes. Comrade Chief of Staff." I then said triumphantly: "In fact, the results are more than that. I also used a plan to destroy the newly stationed Azerbaijani camp south of Aboganerovo Station."

Raskin was stunned by what I said. He said in a flustered manner: "What, what? You said you also wiped out the Azerbaijani battalion? How about the casualties of the troops? Wouldn't you tell you only a dozen people were slightly injured?"

"Of course not, we didn't have any casualties!"

This news of me drove Raskin crazy. He stammered and said, "Comrade Oshanina. You call me in the middle of the night, isn't it just to entertain me? You know that it has wiped out so many things. How can the enemy have such small casualties? You know, if our troops do not have the upper hand in numbers and weapons, it is difficult to win. And your casualties are almost negligible, which is simply incredible Up."

"Comrade Chief of Staff," I said clearly, "You have known me for a long time. Do you think I am that kind of boring person?"

"No...no." Raskin said hesitantly, "Please wait a moment, I will ask the commander and General Cuikov to come over and let them hear your results for themselves."

Ruskin inadvertently used honorifics to address me. It seems that he is still skeptical about the results of our division, so he has to ask Shumilov and Trikov to come over to confirm.

Cui Kefu's voice soon came from the headset: "Hey. Hello, is it Oshanina? This is Cui Kefu, can you hear me now?"

I quickly replied, "I heard you clearly, Comrade Commander."

"Col. Ruskin just told me about the results you reported. Not only him, but General Shumilov and I also thought it was incredible. Let alone your under-trained and poorly equipped unit. Bringing the most elite troops in the entire army to fight the Germans will definitely not only have negligible casualties. Tell me, what is going on?"

Regarding Cui Kefu’s questions, I must answer every question. So I told him the plan I made and the course of the battle one after another. Finally, I specifically emphasized: "...Comrade Commander, to be honest, When formulating this battle plan, I had no bottom in my heart, so before the battle started, I personally rushed to the front line, I was worried that if the plan was not implemented badly, I could adjust the deployment according to the actual situation. I didn't expect to go to the sky. All helped us, and everything went according to our plan. The German army was destroyed by us, and the traitors of the motherland were also eliminated by us through the Germans. Such a result, let alone you, Even if I hadn't come to the front line and witnessed it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."

Although I have said it for this purpose, Cui Kefu murmured: "It's incredible. If I didn't understand you, I must have thought you were lying. But now listening to you, I believe it. , Because you are a commander who is good at creating miracles." At this point, he paused, as if talking to someone next to him in a low voice, and then his voice came from the headset again, "Me and Shumilo The husband has discussed it, you immediately report the names of the eighteen fighters, and we will give them credit, and Commander Shumilov will personally honor them."

"Okay, Comrade Commander. I will report the names of these heroes to you when the day breaks!"

Before I could end the conversation with Cui Kefu, Vellore hurriedly opened the door and walked in. She saw me calling, and quickly raised a piece of paper in her hand, opened her mouth and said a few words silently. Judging from the shape of her mouth, she was saying: "Comrade Commander, I have sent you the list of 18 fighters."

After I put down the phone, Vellore, who had been standing next to me, hurriedly reported loudly: "Comrade Commander, I have sent you the list of 18 fighters!"

I looked down at the long and slurred names on the list, nodded and said: "I know, when daybreak, I will report their names to the group army command." Then I pretended to be mysterious. Said to him: "Comrade Vellore, quietly tell you a good news. The commander of the group army already knows about these 18 fighters. He also asked me to submit the list as soon as possible. He said that he would come to honor these fighters personally. ."

"Really?" When Vellore heard the news, she almost jumped up excitedly. She asked excitedly: "Lida, is this all true?"

"Of course it's true." I replied this way, but I said with a little dissatisfaction in my heart. Isn't it because you are doing your work and you need to be so excited?

I said a few more words to her. Just as she was about to be sent away, the operator Shura suddenly called me excitedly: "Comrade Master, General Zhukov is online, and he wants to talk to you."

Zhukov wants to talk to me so late? ! Needless to say, it must have been Cui Kefu who reported my results to the front army headquarters, which alarmed Zhukov, the great god. I quickly put on the headset and said loudly to the transmitter: "Hey, hello, hello, Comrade General, I am Oshanina."

"Lida, I congratulate you." Zhukov said straightforwardly: "I listened to Comrade Cuikov's report, saying that in tonight's operation, your troops have achieved great results and eliminated the Germans and Their lackey troops, and the casualties of their own troops are negligible, it’s really amazing."

"You passed the award, Comrade General!" Although I felt flattered, I still had to pretend to be humble and replied, "This is just a small victory, nothing."

"What? A small victory is not a big deal?" Zhukov said in a somewhat exaggerated tone~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If other troops can win such small victories like you, I guess. The Germans near Stalingrad were almost wiped out by us. "

I didn't know what Zhukov would say to me next, so I didn't speak, but listened to him in silence.

He continued: "When I gave you the order to stick to the Abganerovo station yesterday, I felt very heavy. I am deeply afraid that this order of my own will put you and your troops in a situation where you and your troops will be in a state of unrest. Judging from the results of the battle tonight, my worries are superfluous. Just as Comrade Cui Kefu said, you are a commander who is good at creating miracles. Although your overall view is lacking, you often use troops. He was ingenious and was able to fight those ferocious enemies by surprise. It seems that Comrade Cui Kefu has a good vision and courage. He should actually give you an independent force to conduct independent operations in a separate direction. It is my words. It's not necessarily better than him."

"Comrade General, I am also very grateful to you. Without you, there would be no where I am today." This is the truth. If it weren't for Zhukov's help, I might still be guarding Lenin's mausoleum in Tyumen.

"Lida, don't need to say if you are grateful, just keep working hard, I am waiting to hear more good news from you." (To be continued...)
