Chapter 523

After captain shejerikov finished, I did not express any opinions. Instead, I turned my eyes to the three commanders present and carefully observed the expressions on their faces.

Gaidar was staring at the map on the table, as if considering the feasibility of the plan that shejerikov said.

After Oleg and kosja looked at each other, Oleg asked a question: "Captain xijerikov, according to what you just said, from the number of offensive troops, a shock unit plus a support unit is exactly the strength of a company. Is my understanding right? "

Shejerikov nodded to agree with Oleg.

Oleg quickly asked, "do you think our existing company is competent for the task you just mentioned?"

Shijerikov shook his head slowly and replied seriously: "Comrade Oleg, I can tell you very responsibly: No, at least at the present level of the division's troops, not to mention that one company can't produce a ready-made commando, even four or five companies can't. So we should ask every platoon, every class and every soldier to learn shock tactics, which will be the focus of our training in the next few days. "

When xiejerikov finished speaking, Gaidar turned his attention away from the map, looked at me and said, "Comrade division, I want to ask you a question, what is the purpose of the group army command to seize this residential area? You know, from the map, the residential area is five kilometers to the west of our defense line. There is no danger around it. Even if it is captured, it is not easy to keep it, because the enemy's offensive forces can easily cut off the connection between our defensive forces and the main force. "

I have to say that when Gaidar's question came to the point, several team leaders turned their eyes to me and quietly waited for me to say the answer. Gaidar would raise such a question, which I had expected for a long time. After all, they were all released from the punishment camp, and they didn't know the current war situation. To say the least, even if they stay in the army all the time, at their level, it is impossible for them to understand the operational intention of the group army leader. All they can do is to command the attack or transfer of the army according to the orders given by their superiors.

But now that they are my commanders, I want to let them know the real combat intention of the group army. So I stood up, leaned forward, pointed to the map and said to them, "you see, the group army has built fortifications along the renok spardanovka orlovka line, relying on villages and hills. According to the intelligence we have at present, the enemy is gathering heavy troops in the spardanovka area in an attempt to break through the defense line of our army. "

"But, sir, what does this have to do with our seizing of residential areas?" Asked cosga, puzzled.

"As we have built new Fortifications on the two highlands of 158 and 165 in spardanovka, if the enemy attempts to break through in this area, it is bound to pay a heavy price. Once the enemy's attack here is frustrated, according to their usual way of playing, they will certainly turn their attack to the areas of renok and orlovka. These two areas are plains, and there is no dangerous terrain to defend. With their superior troops and weapons, the enemy can completely break through our army's defense. In this way, they can detour back to spartanovka, surround our defenders here and annihilate them. Aware of the enemy's sinister intentions, the head of the group army ordered the troops in renok and orlovka's defensive areas to attack actively to contain the enemy in front of them, so that they could not mobilize their forces to gather in the spardanovka area, disrupt the enemy's plans, and gain precious time for our army to accumulate strength to carry out the counter offensive. " At this point, I deliberately stopped to observe everyone's reaction. When I saw that their faces were full of understanding, I went on to say, "our division's attack on the residential areas is only a small part of the whole containment operation of the group army."

After listening to me, Xie jerikov first said, "I understand, sir. In the next three days, the focus of our training for the soldiers should be to teach them how to seize the buildings occupied by the enemy. "

"You're right, comrade captain." I expressed support to him in public in time, "then you are responsible for the training of the whole division. All three of you are under the command of captain chejerikov. Do you understand? " The last sentence, I was looking at the other three commanders asked.

"I understand!" The three regimental leaders stood up and answered neatly.

I turned around and asked kosga, who was in charge of unloading just now: "Comrade captain, what are the things carried by the motorcade that just came back with me?"

Kosja had just sat down and listened to my question. He quickly got up again and replied respectfully, "Mr. reporter, there are twenty trucks coming. In addition to two vehicles carrying soldiers and one vehicle carrying communication equipment. The remaining 17 vehicles, except for five, transport grain. The rest are all kinds of weapons and equipment, including 200 cases of grenades... "

"My God, two hundred cases of grenades! That's great Shijerikov couldn't wait to interrupt kosja and said excitedly to me, "Comrade division, grenades are indispensable weapons for soldiers to attack. When attacking from a distance, the smoke produced by grenade explosion can shield the enemy's vision; When we get close to the building where the enemy is, the soldiers will throw grenades through the window, and then the enemy hidden inside will be killed. "

I can't help but feel a movement when I hear that xiejerikov's words are so organized. His talent has been praised by trakov. At the same time, I plan to promote him to deputy division commander after completing this task. I might as well give him the command of this battle and let him make a war plan. By the way, I'll see what his ability is.

Thinking of this, I did not hesitate any more and said decisively, "comrades, I plan to let captain chejerikov make the battle plan and direct this battle. Do you have any different opinions?"

After my words, four people were silent. After a while, Captain kosga took the lead in saying, "I agree with the teacher's proposal, no problem."

"I don't have a different opinion either." Then came captain Oleg.

"I don't mind either." It was captain gedar who made the final statement.

Xiejerikov came up to me, lowered his voice and said, "Comrade division, is this suitable? You know, I've only been a battalion commander before. I'm afraid I can't command a division. "

I took a look at him, waved to him and said, "needless to say, I believe you. What time has the final say what time to train and when to attack, you will have the final say. That is to say, you are fully responsible for the command of the division. "

I was so simple a few words, actually let the light in his eyes flash, seems to have a heart of admiration for me. After a short loss, he soon regained his composure. He straightened up and said to the other three commanders in a calm tone: "next, comrades, let's continue the meeting.

First of all, we all know that even if the commanders have brave commandos, if they don't make full preparations for the attack, it's useless to win. Our assault should be carefully prepared and every detail must be taken into account. The study of assault targets and the designation of assault plans are the two elements of preparation.

Secondly, time and suddenness are two extremely important factors for the successful maneuver of the commando. What every commander of a commando team should learn is how to make use of such factors as time and suddenness. It is of decisive significance in the battle to capture settlements, especially in the close combat that may take place in cities in the future. " At this point, he stopped for a moment and looked at captain gedar, who was sitting opposite him. "Comrade gedar."

Gaidar quickly stood up and asked respectfully, "Comrade xijerikov, do you have any instructions?"

Before speaking, shejerikov looked around and looked at the ceiling. Then he said, "Comrade gedar, judging from the headquarters of your regiment, there should be architectural engineers in your regiment?"

Gaidar nodded his head hard and answered positively: "yes, there are about a dozen architectural engineers, including two famous architects, and their houses and sculptures in Stalingrad. Shall I call them all here? "

Why did chejerikov suddenly ask architectural engineers that we don't need to repair works at all? Although I can't understand it, since I keep silent, I watch them quietly, waiting for the final answer.

Shejerikov waved to Gaidar and said with a smile, "architects don't have to. They are our country's precious wealth. When the war is over in the future and we rebuild our homeland, we still need their advice. Comrade Gaidar, after the meeting is over, you go back to select some clever soldiers, organize a reconnaissance team, and equip a construction engineer to set out to scout near the residential area we are going to attack.

Remember, let the scouts know the following information: the type of residential buildings, the thickness of floors and walls, whether there are basements, where the entrances and exits are, the nature of fortifications built by the enemy, the location of concealed shooting holes, the location and shape of obstacles, and whether the enemy garrison at the firepower support point has access to other friendly forces. "

"Comrade captain, maybe our scouts can't get close to the residential area at all, and can't provide the information you need," Gaidar said with a look of embarrassment

Shijerikov said confidently: "Comrade gedar, the reason why I asked you to deploy an architectural engineer in your reconnaissance team is to let him observe the buildings in the residential area. You should know that any professional architectural engineer can answer most of my questions just by looking at the appearance of the building.

With this information, the commander in command of the commando can quickly find out the disposition of the enemy's firepower points, its strafing sector and its dead angle. If we don't know the daily life of the enemy's garrison and the firepower killing effect of the adjacent buildings during reconnaissance, then we can't say that our understanding of the attack target is complete. And the complete information will undoubtedly have a direct impact on how we choose the most favorable assault time. "

After giving Gaidar the assignment, he ordered Oleg sitting on the left: "Captain Oleg!"

"Here it is When the Captain stood up, he gave a loud promise, and then politely asked, "Comrade captain, do you have any instructions?"

"If I remember correctly, there are more than 100 veterans with combat experience in your regiment." Chejerikov was not polite either. He asked directly.

"Exactly, comrade captain." Oleg replied, "there are 300 officers and men from the correctional camp in the division. Apart from 84 commanders including us, there are 216. There are 23 members in one regiment, 47 members in three regiments, 31 members in four regiments and 115 members in our regiment. "

After hearing the data reported by Captain Oleg, I am very grateful to trakov. Among the 20000 additional soldiers, only 500 experienced commanders and fighters, and he added 300 of them to my independent division. If I can't successfully complete the task he assigned to my division this time, I will have no face to see him in the future.

I soon drew back my mind and continued to listen to shejerikov: "the tactics of the commandos are based on the quick action, excessive bravery and initiative of every soldier. For the commandos, the most flexible tactics must be adopted, because suddenly after the enemy's fortified buildings enter the intricate rooms occupied by the enemy, the commandos will encounter a series of unexpected situations. The enemy may turn to counterattack in the building. But if the commandos are all veterans, then don't be afraid! Because we have seized the initiative, it is in our hands. We will fight fiercely with grenades, rifles, submachine guns, daggers and shovels. The fighting in the house is fierce, so we should be ready to deal with the accident at any time and don't take it lightly. "

Oleg heard what shejerikov said and answered in a loud voice: "please rest assured, comrade captain, we will gather the veterans tomorrow, and then equip a strong new recruit to form a number of commandos. New and old with joint training, so that commandos can form combat effectiveness in a short period of time

Shejerikov nodded with satisfaction, then said to the eager cosga, "Captain cosga."

Cosga almost jumped up from the stool, raised his hand and said aloud, "here! Comrade xiejerikov, Captain kosja reports to you. I'm waiting for your instructions! "

I couldn't help laughing with joy when I heard that xijerikov ordered the three commanders in a clear and orderly way. It seems that it is a wise move for me to hand over the command to sjerykov. His participation not only corrected several loopholes in my original plan, but also put forward many refreshing suggestions. In my opinion, it is his supplement that makes the whole plan more perfect. Although without his participation, the plan may not have failed, but as a commander with rich combat experience, his grasp of combat details and adjustment of key sequence played a finishing role, which immediately made me feel bright in front of my eyes. I can't help feeling to myself that he is a grass-roots commander who has been in the army for more than ten years. Since he can be transferred from the punishment camp and entrusted with heavy responsibilities by the people of the Ministry of interior, it proves that he is really outstanding.

The war meeting soon ended. Xie jerikov turned to me and asked for instructions: "Comrade division, after the meeting, can we finish it?"

Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at me, I quickly stood up and said to them, "leaders, wait a moment. I have something to announce. From now on, my division headquarters will be set up in the regiment headquarters of the first regiment. If the regiments have anything to report, they can directly contact me by telephone or telephone. "

"Comrade division," cried captain Oleg, "but there is no communication equipment in my regiment!"

"Don't worry, there will be communication equipment and communication soldiers." After I comforted him, I yelled to the outside, "sergeant razumeyeva!"

With my shouts, razumeyeva, who had been waiting for a long time, strode into the headquarters. He raised his hand to me and stood quietly at the door.

I introduced to the four commanders: "comrades, this is sergeant razumeyeva, the monitor of the communication class sent by the headquarters of the group army. She will distribute her subordinates and corresponding communication equipment to the regiments. " At this point, I looked at razumeyeva again, raised my voice and asked her, "are you ready? Comrade sergeant

"Report to Mr. division chief, the communication class has already been ready."

"Good! Then you're going to assign people to the regiments now. "

Razumeyeva agreed, put her body slightly to one side, and yelled out: "corporal Najia, corporal guliyayeva, private Taya, you three come in." The female signalman named by her came in quickly. As soon as she entered the door, she stood in a neat row beside her.

Razumeyeva kept giving orders: "Najia, take a male soldier, one telephone and ten telephones to captain Oleg's second regiment; Corporal guliyayeva, you also take a male soldier, with a telephone and a telephone, to captain kosga's third regiment; Private Taya, you and the men are going to report to the fourth regiment in gedar with their phones and telephones. The rest of the signalmen will stay with me in captain shejerikov's regiment. "

When listening to razumeyeva's orders, I couldn't help nodding. During the period when she stayed outside, she didn't have a spare time. She found out the establishment of the independent division so quickly that she didn't even have the wrong name of the head of each regiment.

Seeing that she had finished the assignment, I urged Oleg, kosja and Gaidar: "Hey, comrade commander, what are you still doing? Why don't you take the signalmen back to your regimental headquarters as soon as possible? "

The three agreed to move a telephone in the corner first, and then left with the female soldiers assigned to their regiment.
