Chapter 222

"Buniachenko?" When I heard the name, I still doubted whether it was the same name or not. Turning around, I found that the people standing there were really familiar, but I'm still not sure that things in the world would not happen so coincidentally. Colonel marinin actually sent him.

Seeing that I sat on the stool and looked at him in a daze, buniachenko pulled the hat off his head and revealed his bandaged forehead. Then he said aloud, "Comrade division, don't you know me? You know, the day before yesterday, we beat the bandits in Himki together. "

There was no need to doubt that it was bunyachenko, the chief of staff of the tank Division I knew. I quickly got up to meet him, held his hand, shook it hard, and said excitedly, "chief of staff, it's really great to see you here again."

"So do I, sir." "I didn't expect to have the chance to fight with you again so soon. It's my honor," said buniachenko sincerely

"Comrade teacher, what's the matter? I'm confused. Did you know Mr. buniachenko before? " When political commissar yegorov shook hands with us, he quietly came behind me. Seeing that bunyachenko and I were very familiar, he couldn't help asking curiously.

"Come, comrade Colonel," seeing that all the people stood up, I took buniachenko and introduced him to the commanders of the division. I first pointed to yegorov and said, "this is Comrade yegorov, our political commissar."

Bunyaqin saluted and said, "Hello! Comrade political commissar. " Then he reached out and shook hands with the Commissar.

"Deputy commander, Colonel chisgakov."

"Lt. Col. sherebriakov, division chief of staff."

……

Every time I introduce someone, buniachenko and the other party first salute each other, then shake hands warmly.

After introducing all the commanders in the headquarters and taking their seats again, I pointed to buniachenko beside me and explained to the political commissar, "Comrade political commissar, I met Colonel buniachenko by accident on my way to the headquarters of the front army the day before yesterday."

"Yes Bunyachenko echoed: "at that time, our division just retired from the direction of klin and was on standby in the area of Himki. Mr. oshanina came to us and said that the enemy had occupied Himki. He hoped that we could cooperate with the local militia to take back the settlement. In fact, before she came, the comrades of the militia battalion came to us for help, because we could not get in touch with our superiors, so we had to refuse the comrades of the militia to stay in place. After the arrival of Mr. o'shanina, he fought against the public opinion and called for the dispatch of troops. Under her command, the commanders and fighters of our division cooperated with the militia to fight back decisively and quickly recaptured Himki. "

After listening to buniachenko's story, I saw curiosity and approval on the faces of those who watched me. Even the face of political commissar yegorov, who always had a serious expression, also showed a trace of uncontrollable smile. I turned to look at bunyachenko and said with a smile, "Comrade Colonel, you may not know that captain bukov, the commander of the militia battalion, is here with us now. Because of the Himki war, he was promoted to major and transferred to our division. Now he is my guard battalion commander. "

Buniachenko nodded and replied, "I know that. I saw him at the door when I came in just now, and I had a few words with him."

I went on to say, "let's discuss the defense of this defense line outside the city."

As soon as my words came to an end, sherebryakov, the chief of staff, who had been eager to give a try, took the lead and said, "Comrade division commander, I always think that there is no need to defend this new line of defense. You know, it's freezing now. Yesterday, we used a lot of explosives to build this half man deep circular trench. At present, there is nothing but trenches. There is no permanent fire point made of reinforced concrete, no mine array, no anti tank trench, not even wire mesh. If the enemy launches a fierce attack, our soldiers, not to mention the enemy's tanks, can't even stop the infantry. I still suggest that all the troops should be withdrawn to the city, relying on the buildings in the city to build a solid defense line. "

"Enough, chief of staff." Yegorov impolitely interrupted sherebriyakov and criticized him with a serious look: "you are pessimistic defeatism. You should know that the Red Army soldiers armed with Stalin's ideas are invincible."

I stare at the political commissar with black lines on my face and say that if I say a word casually, you don't have to quote it at any time. If I say that again, I will charge a patent fee. In order to avoid further unnecessary arguments, I stood up and said, "OK. What we want to discuss is not whether to defend this line of defense, but how to defend this line of defense and prevent the enemy from approaching the city. Let's talk about what we can do. " Then I sat down again.

Chisgakov looked left and right, half raised his body, looked at me tentatively and asked, "Comrade teacher, can I talk about my own views?"

"Yes, say what you think."

He stood up and said cautiously, "it's a good starting point to keep the enemy out of the city. However, our army lacks heavy equipment at present. If we want to defend this line of defense, there will be a lot of casualties. Apart from the fact that the enemy's heavy guns will cause heavy damage to our infantry when they bombard the positions, we have no way to deal with the enemy's tanks that cover the infantry assault. You know. Our division doesn't have any anti tank weapons, so the soldiers can only wait for the tanks to get close, strap cluster grenades on their bodies and rush up to die with the enemy. "

I didn't refute the problem he said, because I knew in my heart that it was an objective problem that needed to be solved first. I bowed my head for a moment and asked buniachenko, "Comrade Colonel, how much technical equipment do you have now?"“ Yesterday, the superior supplied a batch of tanks and anti tank guns to our division. At present, the Division has 33 tanks and 16 guns. I temporarily set up an anti tank artillery battalion, the commander of which is under the command of major marafeyev, who you know. " I nodded, and then said to the political commissar, "the troops in the city will remain the status quo for the time being. As for the front line, don't worry. I can find a way to supplement them. General Zhukov, commander of the front army, once promised me that he would immediately transfer two infantry battalions and an artillery regiment from the reserve to our division. I think the troops are on the way now." Everyone was relieved to hear that the front army had replenished our troops. After a while, the political commissar asked me carefully, "Rita, do you think you need to call the general again to confirm whether the troops have started?" If it had been before, I would have called Zhukov without hesitation. But after today's conversation with rokosovsky, I know that he has a grudge against Zhukov. I feel that this call really can't be made. Although both of us are very familiar with each other, it is a very taboo thing to call Zhukov beyond rokosovsky in such a sensitive period. So I denied the political commissar's proposal, and pointed to the map and gave an order to buniachenko: "Comrade Colonel, please see, there are forests on the left and right in front of our newly built defense line. I mean you quietly lead your troops to hide in the forest. When the enemy attacks our army, you suddenly attack from their side and rear, Beat them up. Do you understand? "“ I understand Buniachenko immediately stood up and asked me respectfully, "can I leave now?"“ Go And I reached out to him, "good luck!"
