"Hey, comrades on the other side!" The Soviet captain picked up the microphone again and shouted loudly at the position of the rock: "I was ordered to come to rescue you. If there is anyone alive and hears my voice again, Just come out and talk to me.”

At this moment, the only people alive behind the rock were Captain Feng, the radio operator and one other soldier. Hearing the cry of the Soviet captain, the soldier sneered and said: "Comrade Captain, the little devil actually made people pretend to be Soviet comrades in an attempt to lure us out. He is afraid that when we go out, we will be shot into pieces." "

Captain Feng agreed with the soldier's statement. He turned and asked the operator beside him: "Can you get in touch with your superiors?"

The operator shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The radio station was damaged by falling rocks and it was impossible to contact the superiors."

Knowing that he could not get in touch with his superiors, Captain Feng suddenly felt uncertain. He cautiously poked his head out and took a look, and found that the person calling was indeed wearing a Soviet military uniform, but he did not dare to confirm that the other person was one of his own. His reconnaissance team originally had 11 people, but after a battle, there are now only 3 people including himself, and he must not go out and take risks easily.

"Comrade Captain, what should we do?" the operator asked, "Do we need to send someone over to contact them?"

"No, we can't act rashly." Captain Feng shook his head and said: "Although the person shouting is wearing a Soviet military uniform, we can't figure out who he is. The only thing we can do now is to stay here and wait. Rescue sent by superiors.”

According to Captain Feng's idea, if Sokov really sends someone to rescue him, the rescue team will definitely fight with the Japs when they arrive. But now it seems too quiet outside. Not only are there no gunshots or explosions, but the officer who came to meet him is actually standing in the middle of a large group of little devils, and the two sides are still living in peace. No matter how you look at it, this is too strange. Who knows if it was a trick the Japanese came up with because they were unable to eliminate themselves.

The Soviet captain raised his trumpet and shouted for a while, but there was still no movement behind the rock. He deliberately went forward to make contact, but he was worried that the other party would be too nervous and shoot when he saw someone approaching. It would be bad if there was an accidental injury. It was out of this consideration that he called a soldier and asked him to go back and report to Colonel Faqiushen what happened here.

The soldier rode the Japanese's three-wheeled motorcycle and returned to the front of the position. He reported to Faqiushen, who was staying here to wait for news: "Comrade division commander, we shouted to the friendly forces, but we did not receive any response."

"What, you shouted to the friendly forces, but they didn't respond to you?" Faqiushen asked with some anxiety: "Will they be wiped out by the Kwantung Army?"

"No." The soldier shook his head and said, "Before we arrived, I heard gunfire there. There should be survivors." After saying that, he reported the situation at the scene to Faqiushen in detail. Again.

After listening to the soldiers' report, Faqiushen touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Why didn't they respond?"

He did not rack his brains to consider this issue, but ordered the radio operator: "Contact me immediately to the group army headquarters. I want to speak to the commander."

Sokov received a call from Faqiushen and learned that although Captain Feng's team had been found, the remaining personnel of the other party were hiding behind a rock and refused to show their faces. The commander responsible for responding to him did not dare to go up easily. to avoid taking bullets from your own people.

After listening to Faqiushen's report, Sokov asked for some details and immediately guessed Captain Feng's concerns. After all, the rescue force had not been able to enter the Japanese defense area. Just because an officer was shouting there, he would have treated him Since he has doubts about his true identity, he will naturally not show up to negotiate with him.

After thinking about this, he said into the microphone: "Colonel Faqiushen, send someone to tell the officer that the leader of the reconnaissance team is Captain Feng. When he shouts, he can call out the other party's name." Identity. If Captain Feng and the others still don’t believe it, it can be said that they followed my order and went deep into the enemy’s defense area to rescue them.”

"Okay, Comrade Commander." Faqiushen felt confident after hearing what Sokov said, and quickly added: "I will personally pick up the comrades in the squad."

After ending the call, Faqiushen took a squad of soldiers and entered the Japanese defense area by car, heading towards the hiding place of the team.

When a Japanese squad leader on the battlefield saw Faqiushen leading a squad of soldiers trying to pass through his defense line, he immediately stepped forward to block their way and kept saying that Colonel Yonggang would not allow too many people to enter his defense area.

Seeing that the little devils refused to give way, Faqiushen did not talk nonsense to them. He made a gesture to the back, and a tank parked dozens of meters away fired a shot without warning. Although the impact point of the shell was a bit far away, it The huge explosion still scared the Japanese team leader who was blocking the road. Seeing the remaining tanks turning their turrets and pointing their dark muzzles at his location, he had no doubt that the other side would fire at him.

In order to prevent the Soviet tanks from actually firing at him, the Japanese team leader had no choice but to change his mind and let Faqiushen and his guard squad pass through his defense zone.

When Faqiushen showed up with the guard squad, the anxious Soviet captain couldn't help being shocked: "Comrade division commander, why are you here?"

"I see that you haven't been able to get in touch with the team for such a long time, and you feel uneasy, so I came over to take a look."

When Colonel Yonggangyou saw Faqiushen and his people appearing here, he couldn't help but frowned and said dissatisfied: "Your Majesty, Commander, we didn't agree in advance that you can't bring people into my defense area. Why are you violating our agreement now?" Where’s the agreement?”

Faqiushen sneered, and then said: "The reason why I am here is because my subordinates have not found the missing team for a long time. I am worried, so I came here to have a look. As for the guard squad I have with me , it’s just a precaution.”

Colonel Yonggang really had nothing to say to Fa Qiushen's statement. Not to mention a division commander, even if he is the captain of his unit, when he goes somewhere, there will be no less than a squad of people responsible for protecting him, and the other party only brings one guard squad, which can be regarded as a great face to himself. .

Colonel Yonggang wanted to get rid of the plague god Faqiushen as soon as possible, so he said impatiently: "Sir, please take your people away as soon as possible."

Faqiushen called the captain, whispered a few words, and then said to him: "If you continue to shout, try to get people from the squad to show up."

The Soviet captain came to the place where he was shouting again, raised his horn and shouted in the direction of the rock: "Captain Feng, we are here to meet you on the order of Commander Sokov. If you hear my voice, please Send someone over to contact me.”

Captain Feng, who was hiding behind the rock, immediately dropped his guard when he heard the officer calling his name and saying that he came to meet him on Sokov's order. Because no matter how capable the little devil is, he can't figure out his name in such a short period of time, let alone know that the commander will send someone to rescue him.

Thinking of this, Captain Feng turned to his two subordinates and said, "You stay here, I'll go out and take a look."

"Comrade Captain." When the soldier learned that Captain Feng was planning to go out, he was shocked and quickly advised: "If this is a trap by the Japanese, if you go out like this, your life will be in danger."

"No." Captain Feng said confidently: "Since the other party can call out my order and say that it was sent by the commander to pick us up, it means that it is one of our own, not the enemy. No matter how smart the devil is, It was impossible to guess my order, let alone know that Comrade Commander personally gave the order to send people to rescue me."

Hearing what Captain Feng said, the two subordinates immediately felt more at ease, but they still kindly reminded Captain Feng: "Comrade Captain, you have to be more careful."

Captain Feng stood up slowly, revealing half of his body from the side of the rock: "I am Captain Feng, which part do you belong to?"

Although the Soviet captain had already reported his unit number when he shouted, when he heard Captain Feng asking, he repeated it again: "I am from the 233rd Infantry Division, and the commander next to me is the commander of our division. Colonel Fatyushin.”

"Don't shoot, I'm coming!" After Captain Feng confirmed the identity of the other party, he walked out from behind the rock and slowly walked towards Faqiushen and others.

When he came to Fa Qiushen, Captain Feng raised his hand and saluted, "Hello, comrade colonel, I am Captain Feng, the leader of the reconnaissance team."

Faqiushen nodded to Captain Feng, and then asked with concern: "Captain Feng, how many of you are left?"

"Including me, there are still three people left." Captain Feng replied with a wry smile: "In addition, there are four corpses of soldiers behind the rock. Comrade Colonel, I wonder if you can take them back together?"

"Of course." Faqiushen nodded and said, "Since I have been ordered to come to meet you, whether it is a living soldier or the remains of a sacrificed soldier, I will bring them all back to our army's defense area one by one."

After saying that, he turned to the little devil's translator and said: "Please translate for Colonel Yonggang. I want to take everyone in the team, whether alive or corpses, back one by one. I hope that I can Get his cooperation.”

The Japanese translator quickly asked Colonel Yonggang to repeat what Fa Qiushen said. After the translation was completed, he quietly waited for the other party's instructions.

After listening to the translation, Colonel Yonggang began to think in his mind. Since the Russians were determined to rescue this small team, it was not suitable for them to stay in their own defense zone, whether they were living people or corpses, otherwise they would cause a lot of trouble. Necessary trouble. So he replied simply: "Comrade Commander, we will try our best to meet your request." After saying that, he called a major and gave instructions in a low voice.

Seeing that Colonel Yonggang agreed to his proposal, Faqiushen said to Captain Feng: "Captain Feng, you take the remaining soldiers and follow me back to the defense area. As for the remains of the martyrs, I will send people to transport them back to the defense area. "

In this way, Captain Feng followed Fa Qiushen through the Japanese positions and returned to his defense area. Seeing the tanks and hundreds of soldiers parked in front of the Japanese positions, Captain Feng asked Faqiushen tentatively: "Comrade Colonel, are these troops and tanks here to save us?"

"You are right, Comrade Captain." Faqiushen nodded and said, "According to the commander's order, I brought an infantry battalion and a tank company. If the little devil refuses to hand you over, I don't mind. Order the troops to launch an attack, forcefully break through their defense lines, and rescue you from behind enemy lines."

"Comrade Colonel, thank you." Captain Feng said gratefully to Faqiushen, "Thank you for bringing people to rescue me."

"You're welcome, Comrade Captain." Faqiushen said with a smile: "I am also following orders. If you want to thank me, you should thank the commander."

"Comrade Colonel, I have important information and need to report it to Comrade Commander immediately." Captain Feng asked Faqiushen tentatively: "Can you send someone to take me to the headquarters?"

"No problem." Faqiushen replied readily: "I will arrange for people to take you back to the army headquarters now. As for the remains of those soldiers, after we have collected them, I will order people to bury them properly."

Faqiushen promised to send Captain Feng and the others back to the headquarters. Worried about problems on the road, he specially arranged two trucks and a tank to escort them, so that even if they encountered the enemy on the road, they could escape safely.

After the convoy escorting Captain Feng and others set off, Faqiushen reported to Sokov through the walkie-talkie: "Comrade Commander, I have arranged for personnel to escort Captain Feng and others to the group army headquarters. I believe that in an hour you will be able to Saw them at headquarters."

"Well done, Comrade Colonel." Sokov was very satisfied with Fatyushin's performance. He smiled and said: "I have kept in mind what you did today. I will consider it when I have the opportunity in the future." I’ll put more burdens on you, and I hope you can be mentally prepared in advance.”

Hearing what Sokov said, Faqiushen was particularly excited. When the other party said that he would be given more responsibilities, he was implying that he would be given a higher position one day in the future. He quickly expressed his stance to Sokov and said: "Thank you, Comrade Commander, I will definitely not betray the trust you have placed in me."

As soon as Sokov ended his phone call with Fatyushin, Yakov called him with a complicated expression: "Misha, your call is from the front army headquarters."

As soon as he heard the call from the front army headquarters, Sokov became anxious. He knew very well that he had ordered artillery to bombard the Kwantung Army's defense area without authorization, and also sent troops into the opponent's defense area. The Kwantung Army could ask The headquarters of the Transbaikal Front protested, and the call he received at this moment must be to reprimand him.

But an ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law. Since all decisions are made by herself, her superiors must hold her accountable. As the commander of the group army, she must be mentally prepared to bear all the consequences. He took the phone, put it to his ear, and said, "Hello, I'm Sokov!"
