Chapter 427

The temporary military meeting lasted two hours.

As an onlooker, the more I listen, the more I frown. The so-called "strengthening defense" means simply deploying the newly transferred troops to the positions where there is a shortage of troops. There is no suggestion that the troops should be moved to the two wings of the German army, and when they attack our army, they should be severely hit from the flank.

When I think of the 100000 troops of the group army in the trenches, waiting for the German bombs and shells, I can't help worrying about whether I can hold the Koska river line.

After several division commanders left, Kolpak said to gurov, "Comrade military commissar, before you come here, I personally gave the order to the commander of the 160th Zhouqiao battalion to build three floating bridges on the river overnight, one of which should be able to pass tanks and other heavy technical equipment."

"What, a floating bridge?" Gurov asked puzzledly, "what are your plans to build a floating bridge on the river behind us at this time?"

"Comrade military commissar, I think so. At this time, I ordered Zhouqiao camp to set up a floating bridge, in order to... "Colpakchi said here. He turned his head and found that I was still standing straight against the wall. He asked me strangely, "commander o'shanina, what are you doing standing here?"

My heart said I was your adjutant, you did not speak, I dare to leave? But I have to say respectfully, "Comrade report commander, I can't leave without your permission."

Colpakchi waved his hand impatiently and said to me, "it's none of your business here. Go back and have a rest."

As I was about to leave, gurov, who was sitting there, found the blood on me by accident and asked with concern, "commander o'shanina, are you hurt?"

I looked down at the bloodstain on my uniform and just wanted to answer gurov. Unexpectedly, kolpakchi had already said, "comrades of the military commissar, don't worry, lieutenant commander oshanina is not injured. She is covered with other people's blood." At this point, he waved at me and urged me to have a rest. I have something important to discuss with the comrades of the military Commissar

After listening to korpakchi's words, gurov could not say anything more. He could only politely say to me, "Comrade oshanina, you are not needed here for the time being. You'd better find a place to rest."

I think they are going to discuss some important military information in private. There are outsiders in the room, and it's hard to say a lot, so they can't wait to send me away.

Since I'm not popular here, I'd better leave early. I saluted them, turned and strode out.

As soon as I walked out of the headquarters, I met the most active combat staff officer in the daytime. As soon as he saw me, he asked frankly, "Comrade commander, have you finished the meeting in the headquarters?"

I just wanted to ask you, didn't you see those teachers leave? It suddenly occurred to him that just before the meeting, for the sake of confidentiality, the staff officer and the staff officer in charge of communication were all banished to other shelters, so it's not surprising that he didn't know whether the meeting was over or not. I said, "the meeting has already ended, and several division commanders have returned to the army."

"Where are you going?"

"The commander asked me to have a rest. Do you know where I can have a rest?"

The staff officer shook his head and said, "the shelters here are almost all headquarters or communication rooms at all levels. There is no suitable place. If you want to have a rest, I suggest you go to the car. No one will disturb you there. "

I nodded and said thanks to him. Just as I was about to leave, he stopped me from behind. He ran over and looked me up and down and said, "Comrade commander, your uniform is full of blood. There is a new suit of military uniform in my luggage. Please pick it up and put it on first

The staff officer took me to a jeep, opened the door and asked me to get on. Then he picked up a bag from the co driver's seat, took out a military uniform from it and handed it to me, saying, "the dress may be a little big, so you can make do with it. It's getting late. You can have a rest. I'm on duty tonight, so I won't accompany you. "

Before I could thank him, he turned and left.

I closed the door, changed my clothes, and reclined in the back of my chair.

Because I couldn't sleep well in the car, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. I just barely fell asleep until dawn.

I didn't expect that I was awakened by the roar of gunfire just after I fell asleep. I raised my hand and looked at my watch. It was only five o'clock in the morning. At yesterday's meeting, we only discussed how to defend and did not mention the issue of attack. It is estimated that the German attack has begun again.

I quickly pushed the door open, jumped out of the car and trotted to the headquarters. Since the German army began to attack, the headquarters must be very busy. At this critical moment, if my adjutant of the commander was not present, it would be worse.

When I ran into the headquarters, kolpakchi was on the phone while gurov was sitting at a table looking at the map. I went to gurov and asked in a low voice, "Comrade military commissar, what's the matter? Which defensive area did the Germans attack again? "

Gulov looked up at me and replied, "the gunfire is coming from the left side of our defense zone. The commander is calling general walshing of the 147th division to find out if his defense zone is being shelled by the German army." Just then, kolpakchi put down the phone, looked at gurov, waved his head and said, "Comrade military commissar, I just asked general walshin. He said that his position was very calm. He neither suffered from German artillery nor found German ground troops." Gurov frowned and thought about it, then tentatively asked, "Comrade commander, listen to the direction of the gunfire, is it Comrade trakov's defense area that is being shelled by the German army?"“ Well, it's quite possible. Yesterday, the German army launched an attack on the defensive area of the 229th division. Later, I sent a regiment of the 147th division to support them and provided them with enough artillery support. I'll call trakov and ask him what's going on there The communications staff quickly got through to trakov, and korpakchi said, "Hello, trakov? I'm colpakchi. Where are you now? "“ Hello, general colpakchi. I'm now in the observation post ten kilometers northwest of lower kirskaya. "“ Have you been attacked by German artillery? "“ Yes, the German army is bombarding the defensive position of the 783 regiment of the 229th division of our group army. I guess they want to break through from here and go straight to the Kiel river“ Have you taken any measures? Comrade trekov. "“ Because the infantry reserves are all east of the Don river, I can't strengthen the 229th division at present, but I have sent two independent tank battalions to reinforce them. "“ OK, keep in touch. If you need us, please let us know. We will do our best to support your troops as much as we can. " I didn't expect that the situation was more serious than I thought. Half an hour later, trakov took the initiative to call korpakchi and report the war situation: "old man, the situation seems to be a bit bad. After the enemy's artillery preparation and air attack, the infantry charged under the cover of tanks. From my observation post, we can see that there are more than 80 tanks under the cover of artillery and mortars attacking our army. I analyzed that their main target should be the dairy defended by the 1st Battalion of the 783rd regiment. "“ Don't worry, comrade trakov. I'll let the artillery fire immediately to stop the enemy. " Hang up the phone, kolpakchi can't wait to ask gurov: "Comrade military commissar, how many artillery units can we put into battle?" Gurov looked up at him, sighed, and replied, "at most one artillery regiment can be put in."“ What, only one artillery regiment? " Kolpakchi exclaimed in surprise. His exclamation alarmed the staff in the headquarters, but after they looked back at him, they went on their own. Gulov said helplessly: "in yesterday's battle, the positions of two cannon regiments were attacked by the German army, and the artillery was almost lost. And the surviving regiment also ran out of shells in the battle. Fortunately, last night we took the time to add a part of it. Otherwise, even this regiment would not be able to fight now. "
