Chapter 332

slap in the face! This is absolutely a slap in the face!

I looked at the back of general privalov and trembled with anger. I didn't expect that a general would say such selfish and irresponsible words. You're out of the encirclement safely. What about those commanders and fighters who are still in the encirclement? Once the gap is closed again by the German army, the main force of the group army will be wiped out.

When I think of his blind command, which killed thousands of elite troops of the group army in vain, I am even more angry. Thinking of this, my hand reached back, opened the holster, held the cold handle of the pistol, and slowly pulled out the gun. Although general privalov has been 20 meters away, I can definitely kill him with one shot.

"Comrade major, you are here. I've been looking for you everywhere! " Just as I was about to raise my gun, ahlomeyev's voice came not far away. I followed him and saw him trotting towards me from the hillside on the right. With a wry smile, I put the gun back in the holster and said that if he showed up ten seconds later, general privalov would be my dead soul.

When he stood at attention in front of me, I asked first, "Comrade lieutenant, did you suffer a lot in the German shelling?" Because it is a temporary position, although the two highlands are 100 meters apart, there is no telephone to contact, so I can't keep up with the latest situation of the highlands on the other side.

He waved his head vigorously and replied, "there are not many shells on our position. Only three soldiers were slightly injured because they didn't escape in time."

"What do you want from me?"

He pointed to the passage between the two hillsides and said, "Comrade major, look at the terrain here. If you need someone to maintain order, speed up the passage of troops. Otherwise, as long as the Germans bombard this area continuously, our army will make a great sacrifice. "

I thought what he said was reasonable. After pondering for a while, I asked, "Comrade lieutenant, how many people are there in your second lieutenant training team?"

"There are 84 people, including me."

"84 people, not a small number. Comrade lieutenant, it's up to you to maintain the order of this passage. Now the first thing to do is to take people to clean up the remains of those soldiers in the passage. Remember, move fast. No one knows when the Germans will attack again. "

Akhromeyev agreed, saluted and turned to carry out my orders.

I looked at the back of general privalov who had gone away, snorted indignantly, and then walked up the hillside. Although I hate him to the bone, there are still many things to do. I don't know how long we need to hold on here and how long we can hold on with our strength in order to ensure the smooth passage of the army. However, as long as one person is still alive, this defense can not be relaxed, otherwise, when the Germans fight, the commanders and fighters who are still in the encirclement will become turtles in the urn.

Seeing me walking up the hill, ugad came quickly. As soon as he came to me, he asked anxiously, "Comrade major, why did the teacher leave without saying anything?"

I didn't answer his question immediately. I glanced behind him and found sergeant grasimenko and some of my guards were there. So I told them, "sergeant, go and call captain vitorganov of the tank brigade to the command post."“ You call lieutenant miducci“ You go to the opposite highland and bring captain kozala over

After several guards were sent away, I said to ugad, "Lieutenant, come with me to the command post and wait for us to arrive. Besides, it's not too late."

Back in the command post, I sat down on a stool, staring at the map on the table in a daze. Seeing that I was in a bad mood, ugad dared to ask again. He poured me a cup of tea with his uninjured hand and put it on my hand respectfully.

After a while, several commanders I called came. After calling them to sit down, I exchanged a few simple greetings, and then repeated to them what general privalov had just said at the foot of the hill.

As soon as I finished, Lieutenant ugad jumped up and said angrily, "how can the general do this? You know, the Germans are hundreds of meters away from us. Now their shells have only hit here, causing us so many casualties. If we let them occupy the highlands on both sides of the passage again, we can completely block our retreat with a few machine guns. No, we must not retreat. "

"Yes, Lieutenant ugard is right." I stood up with my hand on the edge of the table and said to everyone, "since we broke the siege, let's shoulder the responsibility of sticking to the high ground on both sides of the passage. As long as there is still one person in the highland, we can never give up. Let the cowards who are afraid of death go, and the less the panicked people stay, the better. I'm not on a defensive mission next. "

At this point, I looked at the commanders sitting in the room, and then named the tank captain vitorganov: "Captain vitorganov."

"Here it is The captain agreed loudly and stood up.

"How many tanks are there in your camp?"“ Report to the major, there are twelve more. " When he said this, he shrugged his shoulders at the people around him and said, "originally, I brought 20 tanks. In the fierce battle to break the siege, eight of them withdrew from the battle. There is not much left, but it is enough to teach those Germans who threaten us I nodded to his reply, expressing satisfaction, and then said, "Comrade captain, you drive all your tanks to the south of the hillside to hide. In this way, we can not only avoid German shelling, but also quickly fight when we want to attack. " Vitorganov agreed and sat down“ Captain kozala, Lieutenant ugad. " I called two names this time“ Here we are Kozala and ugad stood up together and promised me loudly“ Your task is to continue to reinforce the existing fortifications. Remember, to dig more holes, which can effectively reduce the casualties of commanders and fighters in the encounter of artillery“ I see! " After answering the questions, they sat down again. When the two sat down, I called the last man's name: "Lieutenant miducci."“ Here we go! Lieutenant miducci is at your command“ Comrade lieutenant, you take your mortar platoon and deploy it on lieutenant ugad's position. When the Germans attack on a large scale, you try your best to kill the enemy's infantry with artillery fire. Do you understand? "“ I see, comrade major. I promise to finish the task. " After the assignment, I waved my hand and said, "now that the assignment is clear, go ahead and carry it out." The four stood up, saluted me and walked out of the command post.
