Red Moscow

In May, it didn't get completely dark until eleven o'clock in the evening. But before that, the 1139th Regiment and the Tank Battalion, which reinforced Colonel Bindasov, arrived in time. With the cooperation of the artillery battalion, they successfully smashed the German counterattack and made the Bindasov regiment stand firm. heel.

Since the 1139th regiment has not appointed a new regiment leader so far, the deputy chief of staff of the regiment is responsible for the work of the whole regiment. In order to facilitate the command, Sokov called Bindasov as soon as the battle was over. He said on the phone: "Comrade Colonel, from now on, the 1139th regiment and the tank battalion are under your command. Do you understand?" ?”

"Understood, Comrade Commander." After hearing the news, Bindasov couldn't close his mouth with joy, and he said into the microphone: "I assure you, no matter how many times the German army launches an attack, our regiment will stick to it." In the current position, we will never take a step back."

"Comrade Colonel," Bindasov's answer disappointed Sokov. He thought that the other party would tell him that with these troops, he would advance how many kilometers into the enemy's depth tomorrow, but only those who stood firm Intend. He immediately said in a stern tone: "I gave you so many troops, not for you to stay and defend. Your task is to attack and continue to advance deep into the enemy's defense, understand?"

"But Comrade Commander." Bindasov, who was beaten badly by the German army not long ago, said cautiously into the microphone: "The enemy's strength is stronger than we imagined. If we continue to attack, we will inevitably pay huge casualties. .”

"Comrade Colonel, in order to defeat the Japanese aggressors, no matter how much you pay, it is worth it." Sukov heard that Bindasov was a little wary, and said displeasedly: "If you think you can't If you are qualified for the job, then I will replace you with someone else."

"No, no, no, comrade, please don't change people. I want you to promise that you will complete the task you entrusted to me." Bin Dasov asked with a smile on his face after clarifying his attitude : "Comrade commander, it seems that there is no one in the whole division who is qualified to be a regimental commander except me and Pavel."

"If you can't continue to attack the enemy tomorrow," Sokov waited for Bindasov to finish speaking, and said blankly, "At that time, I will take over your command." Sokov felt that Bindasov Sof was almost done typing, so he put down the phone, picked up the map laid out on his lap, and carefully studied tomorrow's attack plan.

After looking at it for a while, the phone at my feet suddenly rang. Sokov thought it was Bindasov who had something to say, so he picked up the microphone, put it close to his ear, and asked bluntly, "Colonel, what else do you want to say?"

Unexpectedly, Rokossovsky's voice came from the receiver: "It's me, Major Sokov!"

Hearing Rokossovsky address himself by his surname and official position, Sokov knew that the other party was going to talk about business, so he stood up from the ground and said respectfully: "Hello, Comrade Commander, what do you have?" instruct?"

"I heard that you performed well today," Rokossovsky said coldly. "It's really amazing that one person shot down a German plane. For this, I should award you a medal."

"Comrade Commander," when he heard that Rokossovsky was going to award him a medal, Sokov automatically ignored the tone of the other party's speech and said with a smile: "Actually, I can shoot down the enemy's plane, but it is purely blind." When I encountered a dead mouse, I just saw the enemy plane swooping down towards me, so I instinctively shot at the enemy plane. Unexpectedly, my luck was so good that I shot down the enemy plane in one fell swoop. In my opinion, awarding the medal is No need."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rokossovsky on the other end of the phone roared: "Nonsense, it's just nonsense. You are the commander of a division. Your post is to command the entire division in the headquarters, not like a division. Just like an ordinary soldier with a gun to shoot the enemy's plane. If you really like to jerk off, then I will transfer you to the air defense force and become an anti-aircraft gunner. In that way, you can jerk off every day. You can fight whatever you want..."

Sokov, who had been scolded by Rokossovsky, blushed and turned pale. Although he knew in his heart that Rokossovsky scolded him because he cared about himself, but it happened so quickly. It was reported to the headquarters of the group army. Could it be that he was by his side, and there was an undercover agent arranged by his superiors. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at several staff officers and communications soldiers in the headquarters, wondering who this "informant" was.

But Rokossovsky on the other end of the phone seemed to have a pair of clairvoyance, so he guessed Sokov's reaction at once, and said first: "Okay, Major Sokov, don't look around, it's about your masturbation." , I was not told by the regiment headquarters, but I learned about it through General Kazakov. The whole process of your masturbation can be seen by him."

Sokov's face turned red up to his ears. For him from later generations, the word "jerking off" means dirty. Hearing Rokossovsky mention it again and again without any scruples , making him feel a little ashamed. As soon as Rokossovsky had finished speaking, he quickly stated: "Comrade Commander, I was wrong. Please rest assured that I will not make similar mistakes again in the future."

Hearing that Sokov took the initiative to admit his mistake, Rokosovsky's anger was mostly dissipated, but he still emphasized again: "Major Sokov, I warn you, if I do such a bastard thing again, don't let me go!" Treat yourself as the leader of a division, and if you are not responsible for the commanders and fighters of the division, I will dismiss you and let you be an ordinary soldier. My 16th Army does not need commanders who do not understand their responsibilities."

Sokov couldn't help laughing wryly in his heart. He had just criticized Bindasov, but it didn't take long before he was reprimanded by Rokossovsky. This retribution came really fast!

After Rokossovsky got angry, he slowed down and asked, "I heard that the German army launched a counterattack on the left flank of your division. How about it, did you block the enemy?"

"Yes, Comrade Commander." Sokov quickly replied: "When I learned that the 1135th regiment was counterattacked by the Germans, in addition to ordering Colonel Bindasov to turn to the defense on the spot, I also drew a soldier from the right wing. The infantry regiment and the tank battalion of the division went for reinforcements. At present, the counterattack of the German army has been smashed by our army."

"What are your plans for the future?"

"I have given an order to Colonel Bindasov to continue to attack the German defenses in depth tomorrow." After talking about his plan, Sokov asked back: "Comrade Commander, I don't know how our troops on the left and right wings are progressing." ? If we don’t get their cooperation, our division is very likely to fall into the encirclement of the German army because of our lone army going deep.”

"Don't worry, Major Sokov." Rokossovsky said lightly: "The infantry army commanded by General Orlov, although their progress is not as smooth as yours, but they are only two or three kilometers behind. Whatever crisis you encounter, you can get their timely support."

After the two chatted for a while, Rokossovsky changed his address to Sokov: "Misha, there are two more important matters, and I will inform you now."

important things? ! Hearing what Rokossovsky said, Sokov couldn't help but thump, thinking to himself: Is there anything more important than the current attack? He took a deep breath and tried to speak in a steady tone: "Comrade Commander, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"It's like this. Marshal Timoshenko called me today and said that he is going to transfer your troops to the Southwest Front Army to participate in the upcoming offensive." Knowing that Timoshenko finally thought of himself again, Soko The husband had a crazy feeling that as long as his troops went to participate in the Battle of Kharkov, they would be beaten all over the place by the Germans in two days. No matter how you look at it, it is a loss-making business. Fortunately, Rokossovsky's next words made his heart return to his stomach: "But I have already told the Marshal that the troops under your command are attacking the German army, and they cannot withdraw from the front line for the time being. After hearing what I said, Comrade Marshal canceled your transfer order."

Rokossovsky's words sounded like heavenly music to Sokov. He hurriedly said, "Thank you, thank you, Comrade Commander!"

"You don't need to thank me." Rokossovsky clarified the words to Sokov on the phone: "Misha, even if you don't say hello to me, I won't let others transfer you easily. I think You can play a bigger role if you stay in the 16th Army. Let me tell you now that your official appointment may be officially announced after this offensive is over, and you will no longer be the acting division commander. It is a formal division commander, and the military rank will be raised accordingly."

After hearing the first good news, Sokov couldn't wait to ask: "Comrade Commander, what is the other good news?" He thought to himself, Rokossovsky could call it good news It is definitely not a trivial matter. The news that I don't have to go to the Southwest Front Army and that I am about to be promoted may not be as good as the second good news.

"The Supreme Command of the base camp has announced that in order to commend your division's achievements in the Great Patriotic War and a series of achievements, it is going to officially award your division the honorary title of "31st Guards Infantry Division". The ceremony will take place a week later." Rokossovsky paused for a moment when he said this: "Major Sokov, I congratulate you on becoming the first commander of this glorious Guards division."

Sokov waited for Rokossovsky's voice to finish, and immediately replied loudly: "Serve the Soviet motherland!"

"You answered quite quickly," Rokossovsky smiled faintly, and then reminded Sokov: "Misha, remember to tell the good news to the commanders and fighters of the whole division, it will be very effective in boosting morale. Yes. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Comrade Commander." Sokov replied loudly: "I will immediately announce the good news to all commanders and fighters of the division. Thank you, Comrade Commander, thank you for bringing us such a good news." information."
