Chapter 234

After perfecting the details of the plan, Vlasov reported our plan to Zhukov. After Zhukov listened, he hung up without saying a word. Zhukov's attitude made me have no bottom in my heart. I wondered whether it was because the plan was too ridiculous. He thought there was no feasibility at all, so he hung up the phone impolitely. Zhukov's action was just as much as Vlasov and Lin expected. They were gloomy and silent. The former kept smoking, while the latter bent over and looked at the map on the table. And the most embarrassing is the translator Zhe, who stands straight behind President Lin and dares not move. When I look at him, there is a helpless smile on his face. Just when everyone was in low spirits, the telephone on the desk rang suddenly, which scared everyone. Looking at the location of the bell, it was the one that had just called Zhukov. No one immediately to pick up, but each other looked at each other, the face showed a relieved expression, it seems that things have changed. There were two more rings. General Vlasov grabbed the phone, took a deep breath and said, "Hello! I'm Vlasov It was very quiet in the room. Both Mr. Lin and I could hear the voice clearly from the phone. It was Zhukov himself who spoke: "Comrade Vlasov? I have reported your plan to the Supreme Commander himself. After careful consideration, comrade Stalin has agreed to let you implement it! "“ Great, Comrade General. Thank you When Vlasov heard that the plan had been approved, his eyes glowed with excitement. "I'm going to assign tasks to the army."“ Wait a minute. Don't be too happy, comrade Vlasov Zhukov splashed him with cold water: "have you ever thought that the enemy would be deceived in such a short time when there are less than two days left between now and the great counterattack? Even if they want to mobilize their forces to defend suvarovo and botovo, will they certainly move the troops stationed in chismena? " The two questions Zhukov asked are just the biggest flaws in the whole plan. If it can't be solved, we may have been busy for a long time, but all of them will be useless. So we discussed the details of the plan just now. Vlasov organized the words and then replied cautiously: "we have discussed these two questions just now. How to give the enemy in kashino the impression that they will be attacked by our army, deputy commander Lin's opinion is that, within an appropriate period of time, they should bombard the area and send troops to make feint attacks, so as to attract the enemy's attention completely. " Zhukov asked in a low voice, "what kind of forces are you going to use for this feint?"“ We are going to bombard the enemy's kashino area with a cannon regiment, and then send two infantry battalions to attack the enemy's front tentatively under the cover of the T-34 tank battalion. "“ No, no! " Without thinking, Zhukov denied Vlasov that "there are too few troops and too weak firepower to attract the enemy's attention and achieve the effect of deceiving the enemy. Well, I'll send you another Katyusha rocket battalion, and send the air force to air attack kashino. Although it's only feint, we should put on a strong attack posture. Only when they get through the enemy in the kashino area will they consider sending troops back from the front. "“ Comrade general, the help you have provided is so timely, "Vlasov said confidently." only with the support of the air force and the rocket artillery regiment, I can make the enemy believe that we will attack their supply bases and force them to return from other areas. As for where the enemy will dispatch troops, according to our analysis, if the enemy wants to rescue kashino, it is the quickest way to dispatch troops from chismena. "“ In this case, then you go to implement it! Good luck With that, Zhukov hung up. Vlasov put down the phone and exchanged a few words with President Lin. then he called in several combat staff of the headquarters and asked them to pass down the orders for the mobilization of various troops. While they were busy, I came up to the messenger who was sitting in front of the telephone in the corner of the wall, handed a piece of paper to Vlasov, and said in a low voice, "Comrade commander, the headquarters of the front army is calling." When Vlasov read the telegram, I also looked at it and saw that it read: "according to the intercepted German intelligence, as botovo was suddenly attacked by our army, the garrison in chismena area was transferred to the above areas to strengthen defense."
