Burning Moscow

phone-reading

Due to Ulbricht's propaganda to the German army and the power displayed by our artillery, the German army in the office building became unscrupulous and demoralized. http://%77%77%77%2e%76%6f%64%74%77%2e%63%6f%6d When our army rushed into the building, many windows had white flags. Our army's battle in the building also went very smoothly. Except for a few diehards desperately resisting, the rest of the soldiers immediately raised their hands and surrendered as soon as they saw our army's commanders rushing over.

When the German prisoners were escorted by our soldiers and came out of the building one after another, I saw Ulbricht and Captain Beckmann leaving the corner where they had just called out, walking towards me, and hurriedly greeted them. .

I took Ulbricht's hand and said gratefully: "Comrade Ulbricht, thank you. If it hadn't been for your words to destroy the morale of the German army, I guess we haven't taken the office building so easily."

"Comrade Oshaninna, you are too polite, this is what I should do." Ulbricht replied with a smile on his face: "I just talked to this captain and knew that he was surrendering to the Soviet army. , I got preferential treatment in the independent division. It’s really amazing for you to do so, at least you can save a lot of soldiers’ lives.” At this point, he let go of my hand and raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. Then he said: "Look, it's getting late, and I have to go somewhere else, so I won't talk to you. Goodbye, I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future."

Looking at his leaving back, I vaguely felt something wrong. He seemed to have something in his words. I could save the lives of many soldiers by leaving Beckman and the surrendered officers and soldiers in the division. What is the connection between?

Before I could think of a reason, Beckman had already spoken first: "Comrade Commander, do you think what Ulbricht said is a bit esoteric?" Seeing me nodded in affirmation, he added: "If it weren't for you to contain us If that is the case, it is estimated that we will be sent to a prisoner-of-war camp. I don’t say what the situation there is, I believe you know it well. After a few years in such an environment, how many people will be able to return to their own alive in the end Hometown. This is really an unknown."

Hearing Beckman's explanation, I realized in my heart that Ulbricht was talking about this. Looking at the expressionless Beckman, I raised my hand and gently patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Comrade Captain, don't worry, you can return to your hometown safely for up to two years."

Beckman listened to me. With an unbelievable expression on his face, he asked in astonishment: "Comrade Master. Is what you said is true? Can my subordinates and I live back to Germany?"

"Yes, comrade captain." I replied affirmatively: "The German army surrounded by Stalingrad will soon be wiped out by us. When the enemy here is resolved, we will be able to free our hands and go. Reinforce other battlefields and wipe out all the enemies who invaded our borders. When the war is over, you can return to Germany safely."

After more than an hour, Sergeikov came to report to me. Said that the Germans in the factory area have been completely wiped out. Only then did I use a group of walkie-talkies to report to Cui Kefu the results of the "Red October" factory.

When Cui Kefu heard that I had wiped out the enemy in the factory area and successfully retaken the "Red October" factory, he excitedly shouted in the microphone. After waiting for a while, he solemnly instructed me: "Comrade Oshanina, use your existing military strength to reinforce the fortifications in the factory and increase the defensive force. Make sure that the factory will not be occupied by German troops."

Hearing Cui Kefu's order to strengthen our defenses instead of continuing the offensive, I was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Comrade Commander, you let us build a defense in the factory area, don't you plan to let the German army continue to develop in depth? "

"The mission is clear. Comrade Oshanina, first hold on to the current position," Cui Koff repeated his order to me again, and then continued: "While holding your position, you must organize more. The lean squad, with a sudden and swift counterattack, constantly eroded the German positions. They continued to contain and consume their vital power and technical weapons. "Perhaps it was to make me understand why he issued such an order, he added. "Due to the drop in temperature, the transportation line on the ice is basically stable. The materials and troops gathered on the east coast are now driving far into the city from the ice. We are accumulating our strength and waiting for the right time to run out of ammunition. With a thunder blow from the exhausted German army, they will be completely wiped out."

"Understood, Comrade Commander," I hurriedly replied after listening to Cui Kefu's arrangement, "I will then arrange to transfer troops from each division to form a capable combat team."

After finishing the conversation with Trikov, I immediately ordered Yushchenko to call Sokolov, Guriyev, and Sederikov over, and conveyed Trikov's order to them. Then I began to arrange the formation of a capable squad. Due to the limited strength of the 39th Guards Division, it was not possible to deploy manpower to form a squad, so I gave Guriyev the defense of the west and north sides of the factory. On the other hand, Sokolov and Sederikov’s troops each drew a battalion and formed a capable combat team with platoons as units to fight close combat with the German forces entrenched in the city, and gradually captured them. The area cannibalized.

Because the commanders of the regiment had a wealth of combat experience, in the next few days of fighting, they achieved a lot of results. They can occupy one or two blocks almost every day and clear out all the German troops, compressing their positions little by little.

On the evening of December 31st, I was thinking about whether the New Year was coming, should I send the soldiers something for the holidays, I suddenly received a call from Cui Kefu himself. He said excitedly on the phone: "Comrade Oshanina, I order you to rush to the headquarters of the group army immediately. I have important things to tell you!"

"We?!" Because I heard Cui Kefu say "you" instead of "you" on the phone, it proved that there must be other people besides me who went to his headquarters, so I hurriedly asked: "Commander Comrade, I don't know who else is going to the group army headquarters besides me?"

"In addition to you, I will call on the political commissar Kirilov, the deputy commander Pantailev and the heads of the regiments. As for the division command, it will be handed over to the chief of staff, Major Akhromeyev. The command of each regiment is also temporarily transferred to the deputy head or political commissar."

Hearing that Cui Kefu was going to convene so many of us to a meeting at one time, I couldn't help but drum up. What happened in my heart, why did so many people suddenly be recruited to the meeting? Although I was full of misgivings, I honestly gathered all the commanders for the meeting.

The commanders who suddenly received the order ran from their command post in a panic. The first to arrive was Lieutenant Colonel Oleg, the second regiment commander. As soon as he entered the division headquarters, he asked loudly: "Comrade commander, are you calling us back from the front at this time. Is there any important combat mission?"

I did not answer his question, but instead asked him to sit down and continue to wait for the other leaders. The heads of the third group, the fourth group, and the first group came one after another when they entered the door. Both asked the same question as Oleg, but I just smiled. Ask them to sit down and wait, avoiding talking about why they were called.

After seeing everyone here, I announced to the public: "Comrades, I called everyone here today because I received a call from Commander Cuikov and asked me to take you to the headquarters of the group army. Attend important meetings."

"Participate in the meeting?!" As soon as I finished speaking, the four regiment leaders began to whisper, "Why did the commander convene a meeting at this time. Do you think our current attack speed is too slow? Probably not. Our four regiments have been very good recently. In addition to killing thousands of German soldiers, they also captured at least five or six hundred prisoners and regained seven streets."

"Yeah, we played well in one group," waited until Gaidar was over. Sergeikov also began to show his merits: "With the cooperation of friendly forces, our regiment captured eleven streets and killed and wounded more than 2,000 German soldiers. As for the prisoners sent away, there were at least thousands of them, right? ."

"I don't think this should be the matter." The second regiment leader Oleg said thoughtfully: "Tomorrow is the New Year, and we will be called to a meeting at this time. Is it related to giving more benefits to the soldiers? ?"

"It's impossible," said Lieutenant Colonel Corsgar. "As far as I know, in the warehouse controlled by Commander Cuikov, ten tons of chocolates are already empty. Maybe there is nothing good for everyone. "

"Okay, don't say any more." I was afraid that they would be endless when they spoke, so I interrupted them in time, and said dissatisfied: "What is the commander asking us to do. When the group army headquarters, everything will be clear. . Stop chatting and get ready to go.” At this point, I turned to Akhromeyev who was sitting at the table and said: “Comrade Chief of Staff, the chief military officer in the division and regiment is not in the army. Once there is something, then I can count on you."

Akhromeyev quickly stood up and said to me: "Please rest assured, teacher, I will do my job well."

I nodded, then turned around and waved to the group leaders standing in front of me, and said loudly, "Go!"

Since there is no need to worry about the German air strikes and shelling, we went to the headquarters of the group army this time instead of walking, but all went by jeep.

On the way, Kirilov, who was always disturbed in his heart, asked me worriedly: "Comrade Oshanina, you said that Comrade Cuikov asked us to go to the headquarters of the group army. What will happen?"

I shook my head and said regretfully, "I'm sorry, Comrade Political Commissar, I really don't know what the commander is doing to summon so many of us to the headquarters. Fortunately, the road is not too far, and the answer will be revealed soon."

When our convoy arrived at the entrance of the headquarters, the one who came out to greet us was Colonel Vitkov, deputy staff of the group army. When he saw me getting off the jeep, he immediately greeted me with a smile of joy, and said politely: "Comrade Deputy Commander, you are here. Comrade Commander has been waiting for you in his headquarters for a long time, I am here. I'll take you there."

Under the leadership of Colonel Vitkov, we came outside of Trikov’s new command department. I looked from the door and saw that you are really a lot of people. At the table are Trikov, Gurov, Krylov, and Vasilyev. On the bench opposite them, there are several people sitting with me. The commander or brigade commander who has dealt with.

When Colonel Vitkov reported that we were waiting at the door, Trikov stood up from the table, waved to us and said, "Comrade Oshanina, Comrade Kirilov, you are here! Don’t stand outside the door. , Come in quickly!"

I took a group of my subordinates and walked quickly into Cui Kefu’s headquarters. After raising my hand to salute the senior commanders sitting at the table, I saw that there were a few long lines next to the commanders and brigades. On the stool, when I was about to walk over and sit with Kirilov and the others, I heard Gurov's voice: "Comrade Oshanina, come to me!"

Hearing the voice of the military commissar, I quickly stopped, Kirilov, who rushed away next to me, smiled apologetically, then walked around behind him and came to Gurov. Gurov pointed to the empty seat next to Vasilyev and said with a smile: "Comrade Oshanina, please sit with Comrade Director of the Political Department."

After everyone was seated, Cui Kefu stood up and smiled and said to everyone: "Comrade Commander, tomorrow is the New Year, I will call you here to congratulate you on the New Year, and at the same time sincerely say: Happy New Year!"

As soon as his voice fell, a blessing of "Happy New Year" sounded below.

He waited for the silence below, and then mysteriously said: "Next, I will give an unexpected New Year gift to the commanders present. We received an order from the Supreme Command this afternoon, saying that in order to strengthen the command of the troops, It was decided to restore the infantry army that was cancelled at the end of 1941. It is a great honor that our group army has a place to establish a military-level unit." Having said that, he turned his head to look at Krylov and smiled and said, "Comrade Chief of Staff, Please read out the orders of the Supreme Commander's Department to everyone!"

Krylov nodded, then picked up a piece of paper on the table and stood up. Seeing the chief of staff of the group army stand up, I secretly wondered: At present, there are many guards in Stalingrad. Is it necessary to set up a guard? Thinking about it again, the other units are all units with official designations. If an infantry army is formed, maybe my independent division will be split into various guard divisions. Thinking about it this way, I feel a little uneasy.

Krylov read aloud: “The Supreme Command decided that Major General Oshanina’s Red Flag Independent Division, Colonel Gurtiyev’s 308th Infantry Division, and Colonel Vachuk’s Infantry 284th Division, The 115th Infantry Brigade of Colonel Druschenko, the 124th Infantry Brigade of Colonel Gorokhov, the 149th Infantry Brigade of Colonel Bolvinov, and the 84th Infantry Brigade of Colonel Bere, formed the 79th Infantry Corps. "

When I heard the designation of the 79th Infantry Corps, I was almost taken to sit on the ground. Isn't this the force that later occupied the Capitol and planted the red flag on the roof? We must know that the banner of the 150th Division of the army is the first victory banner that appears every time the Red Square parade.

With so many troops forming an army, I wonder who will be the commander? Thinking of this, my eyes couldn't help but flew to the pile of commanders sitting next to me. I looked at this one as if he was an army commander, and when I looked at that, I also thought it might be possible to become an army commander. When I was absent-minded, I suddenly heard my name clearly from Krylov’s mouth: "...Major General Oshanina, commander of the 79th Infantry Corps, and political commissar and military commissar. Vasilyev, Director of the Political Department of the Group Army Serving as..."

Before I wake up from the shock, I heard Krylov announce: "...The designation of the Hongqi Independent Division will be officially changed to the Hongqi 150th Division from now on..."

Hearing the designation that I was still chanting in my heart, I was actually awarded an independent teacher, and I felt like I was dreaming. I pinched my thigh secretly, and the immediate pain sensation told me plainly: This is not a dream, but a real thing that really happened. (To be continued.
