Chapter 528

As soon as I said that, I was immediately opposed by everyone except Gaidar.

"No! No way The first one to jump out and object, as I expected, was trekov. From the perspective of loving me, he expressed his opposition to my wishful thinking with a clear attitude. He said earnestly, "o'xanina, you have to find out your own identity. You are not an ordinary soldier, but a commander. You are the head of a division. How can you go to such a dangerous place and carry out the reconnaissance task that soldiers can accomplish?"

"Yes, commander o'shanina, comrade deputy commander is right. You have a special identity. In my opinion, don't go to such a dangerous task. " Lyudnikov also helped trakov persuade me, hoping I could change my mind.

After a moment's silence, Titov came back to me, half persuading and half blaming, and said, "commander o'shanina, I can understand your mood. It's good to fight actively, but we should do what we can. Although I also took part in this reconnaissance operation, it's different from your situation. I'm not only familiar with the location I'm going to, but also have more than ten or twenty years of combat experience, which is enough to cope with any emergencies that may occur. "

Even Gaidar's mouth opened a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but he may think of his own identity. In this situation, he is not qualified to speak, so he didn't say anything and closed his mouth obediently.

Several people care and love me, I see in the eyes, remember in the heart. However, because this battle is the first battle after the establishment of the independent division, whether it can win or not is related to the survival of this unit in the future, so I can't take it lightly. Only when we personally go to the front for reconnaissance can we accurately grasp the enemy's situation and work out a more practical operational plan.

I know that in the headquarters, trakov is the decision maker. As long as he is convinced, all the opposition will disappear. I also said to him with a smile: "Comrade commander, as you know, the battle to recover the settlements is the first battle after the establishment of the independent division. I think about what the enemy's defense is like in the residential areas. What I saw with my own eyes is more detailed and accurate than what the scout reported. I want to go to the forest near the residential area with political commissar jitov tonight, and hide there, and have a good observation during the day. "

"However, it's too dangerous for you to go to the enemy's position for reconnaissance." Trekov's tone softened when I said that. He didn't object as strongly as he did just now.

"Comrade commander, when I visited the army with you some time ago, didn't I encounter several dangers? Would it be more dangerous to go to the front line for reconnaissance than the enemy situation we encountered at that time? "

Trekov seemed to be convinced by my words, hesitated for a long time, then choked out a sentence: "o'shanina, do you think about it again?"

"Don't think about it any more, comrade commander." I firmly said to trakov, "I have considered it very clearly. I must go in person for this reconnaissance." Speaking of this, I suddenly found that I was a little too hard on trakov. I quickly slowed down and said, "don't worry, I will come back safely and alive."

Trekov looked at me with a bitter smile and said, "I believe that. As far as I know, you've been seriously injured several times, sometimes even giving people the feeling that you can't be saved, but up to now, you're still jumping. Well, since you insist, I'll agree to your request. "

"Comrade deputy commander, this..." lyudnikov and jitov did not expect that trikov changed his position so quickly. They opened their mouths to persuade him a few more words, but they were interrupted by trikov as soon as they spoke. Trikov looked at them confidently and said, "I care too, but it's chaotic. Since Comrade oshanina said she would be safe, she would come back safely. Comrade Titov, make a little preparation, and then we'll go. It's only two hours before dawn. "

I was afraid of a long night, so I quickly took jitov's arm and dragged him out. At the same time, I urged: "Comrade political commissar, the commander is right. It's not much time before dawn. If we linger any longer, we'll be more dangerous than the enemy at dawn. "

Jitov didn't expect that I would drag him out of the headquarters suddenly, so he had to look bitterly at trikov and lyudnikov standing in the room, and finally said, "deputy commander, division commander, I'm going to start with lieutenant commander oshanina. Later, I'll go to the guard company and pick up two smart soldiers to go with me. "

"Two is not enough, at least five!" Trekov said coldly.

After a moment's silence, lyudnikov echoed: "yes, the deputy commander is right. Two are not enough, at least five. Remember, pick all the big ones, so that they can carry commander o'shanina back even if something happens

As soon as lyudnikov's words were finished, trakov burst into laughter, and even jitov grinned. I looked at lyudnikov who was concerned about my safety with a smile. Just as I was about to express my gratitude to him, I suddenly remembered another thing. I quickly stopped, released jitov's arm, went back to trikov and said, "Comrade commander, I forgot to report something to you."

"What's the matter?"

"My guard team, the one you sent me, is waiting outside now. I want them under your command for the time being. When I come back from the reconnaissance mission, you can give them back to me. "

Trekov nodded without hesitation and said, "well, I'll send someone to settle them up later. When you get back, I'll let them escort you back to the independent division."

"Thank you, comrade commander." With that, I raised my hand to give him a military salute.

Trekov took my hand, shook it hard, and said with concern, "o'shanina, I'll be here for you all the time. Promise me to come back alive! "

Although the scene was a bit of separation, it did not shake my determination. I nodded my head vigorously and replied confidently: "please rest assured, commander, I will come back safely." Releasing trakov's hand, I took lyudnikov's hand again and shook it hard.

Out of the headquarters, when jitov went to the guard company to pick the accompanying soldiers, I came to the position of the guard class. I said to Vera, "Vera, I'm going out on an important mission. Maybe I'll be back tomorrow night."

Vera was a little flustered when I said that. She asked nervously, "Rita, if you go. What shall we do then? "

Willa's reaction made me feel disappointed with her again. Maybe it was because she was too young. She was not suitable for the position of being independent at all. When I get back, I'll think about a suitable person to be the monitor of the guard.

I patted her on the shoulder, comforted her and said, "Vera, don't worry. General trakov will send someone to settle you. When I come back from my mission, you will accompany me back to the independent division. "

As he spoke, he heard Titov's voice from a distance: "commander o'shanina, are you ready? If it's all right, we should go. "

I rushed to the direction of the voice promised: "political commissar comrades, ready, I will go right away." With that, I took weilala over, gently hugged her and said softly, "don't worry, I'll be back soon."

I, jitov, Gaidar, and five soldiers from the guard company walked along the traffic trench to the division's first trench. A lieutenant met me, looked at me, raised his hand and saluted jitov. He reported, "Comrade political commissar, I have received a call from the division headquarters. I have been ordered to meet you."

Titov shook his head at the lieutenant and said, "time is running out. We'll talk as we go." With that, he walked along the trench.

I heard Titov ask, "Comrade lieutenant, what's the situation?"

"It's very quiet in front of the position. There's no movement. We sent out the latent sentry, also did not find the enemy's trace in the vicinity. Comrade political commissar, I think it should be safe to cross the frontier at this time. "

Titov patted the lieutenant on the shoulder and said with satisfaction, "well done, comrade lieutenant. It seems that you have done a good job in preparation. If this task can be successfully completed, I will praise you in public. "

A little further on, the lieutenant who led the way stopped first. Pointing to the front of the trench, he said to jitov, "Comrade political commissar, in this area, neither the enemy nor we have sent patrols. You start from here, go straight ahead, walk for about an hour, and you'll get to the forest. "

"Thank you, comrade lieutenant." Titov shook hands with the lieutenant, then turned around and said in a low voice to us, "all right, comrades, climb out of this trench."

There are many craters on the road from our trench to the forest. Fortunately, the moon is good and the vision is very wide, which ensures that we did not fall into these craters without lighting.

During the March, I walked with jitov. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, I can't help but ask with some worry: "Comrade political commissar, we will not be found by the enemy when we walk on the road like this?"

Jitov waved his hand and said, "commander oshanina, don't worry. Although the enemy has occupied the residential area, they seem to be lax in their guard of the nearby area."

"Why?" Jitov's words puzzled me. You know, the enemy troops are stationed not far from our defense. If the defense is lax, are you not afraid that our troops will attack them when they don't expect it?

Jitov pointed to the north and said with a touch: "Comrade commander, actually it's about you. Because the Division has carried out your order to use small troops to attack the enemy continuously, now the enemy's attention has been attracted to the north by our division's troops. It's the junction of our group army and the 62nd group army, and it's also the area where fighting happens most frequently. "

With these words, we came to the hiding place unconsciously. From the outside, the forest area here is no smaller than that of the independent division. Seeing a forest of this scale, I feel much more secure. Let alone we have only eight people, that is, 80 people. If there is not too much movement, it is not easy to be found by people hundreds of meters away.

Where we lurked, behind the bushes at the edge of the forest. I'm with jitov, behind the most forward bush; Gedar, with another soldier, lay down behind the Bush on our left; The other four soldiers, however, were hidden further in order to cover our retreat to the depths of the forest in the event of a battle.

As soon as it was light, I couldn't wait to raise my telescope and look at the residential area hundreds of meters away. The edge of the settlement is a low colored wooden house, which should be built by the collective farm. A little further inside, there are several brick concrete three story buildings. Maybe there is no fierce battle here, so the windows of most rooms are still in good condition.

"Commander o'shanina, what do you find?" Titov asked softly next to me, "have you found the enemy's firepower and fortifications?"

I shook my head and said, "no one can be seen in the settlement." With that, he handed his telescope to jitov and asked him to come and have a look.

While jitov was observing the enemy's situation, I turned and looked at Gaidar, who was hiding nearby. When he found that he was raising his telescope to observe for a while, he put down his telescope and drew a few strokes on a piece of paper; Then pick up the telescope to observe, and draw a few strokes on the paper.

Looking back at Titov, he found that he was holding up his telescope, concentrating on the settlement. At the same time, his mouth seemed to be talking to himself, and he said to me, "look, these ghosts are so cunning. On the surface, there is no abnormality in the residential areas, but at the top of every building, there are enemy firepower points. "

"Really? Why didn't I find out just now I'm a little skeptical that jitov's seeing it.

"See for yourself." "When you look at the top of every building, look at the small square holes in the roof. They are not skylights, but shooting holes made by the enemy," he said

I raised my telescope, carefully looked at the top of several buildings, and found that as he said, several roof tiles were carefully uncovered, revealing a few small square holes. If I didn't look carefully, I really couldn't find them. I can't help feeling to myself that Jiang is still spicy. If it wasn't for jitov, I would not have found the enemy's firepower.

I put down my telescope and humbly asked him, "Comrade political commissar, except for the firepower on the roof. Have you found any other places where the enemy's firepower is? "

Instead of picking up my telescope, jitov pointed to the residential area and pointed to me again, saying, "look at the row of low colored wooden houses. If I guess wrong every time, the enemy should dig a single person's shelter around the wooden house. The settlement is surrounded by open land. Once our army launches an attack, the roof of the enemy's house and a single person's bunker fire at the same time, which can form a cross fire network and cause great damage to the attacking troops. "

After listening to jitov's words, I looked at Gaidar not far away with some worry. I was afraid that he, like me, would not be able to find the enemy's hidden firepower. So I handed the telescope to jitov and climbed over to Gaidar.

I climbed up to Gaidar's side and asked with concern, "Comrade captain, how's the observation going?"

"Comrade division," Gaidar replied excitedly, "I have marked all the enemy firepower points I have observed on the map."

"Show it to me." Then I reached out to him.

"Sir, please have a look!" Gaidar handed me his drawings and explained them one by one: "these Krauts are really cunning. On the surface, there is nothing special about this residential area, but their firepower has been built in a concealed position. For example, on the top of these brick and concrete buildings, there are hidden fire points; Besides, around these colored wooden houses, there are also many enemy individual shelters. Once we attack, the enemy's firepower points fire at the same time, which can form a three-dimensional firepower network and kill a large number of our attacking troops. "

When I heard what Gaidar said, just like what jitov said just now, I knew there would be no mistake. When I handed the drawing back to him, I told him, "Comrade captain, continue to observe. Mark all the enemy's firepower points, and you can make them more precise. " With that, he climbed to jitov again.

Climbing back to jitov, I could not help but say with emotion, "Comrade political commissar, you are really amazing. What you said is exactly the same as what captain Gaidar observed."

Titov gave me a friendly smile, and then asked gravely, "Comrade oshanina, how do you plan to launch an attack when you have found out the strength and firepower of the enemy in the residential area? You know, according to the current situation of our army, except for a small number of tanks, it is impossible to provide you with enough artillery support! In that case, if you want to attack this residential area, the casualties of the troops will be absolutely inevitable. "

In fact, I had a detailed plan in my mind just now when I was looking at Gaidar's drawings. Anyway, there is no outsider now. So I told jitov frankly: "Comrade political commissar, I intend to use the night to gather the offensive troops in this forest. Before launching the attack, fire smoke bombs into the residential areas, rely on the smoke to block the enemy's vision, let the assault forces quietly approach the residential areas, and then launch a sudden attack, quickly rush into these buildings and fight against the enemy for the buildings. "

Although I said it very simply, it also made jitov silent for a long time. After a while, he said with a smile, "that's a good way. In this way, when the troops are assembled, they won't be killed by the enemy's firepower. Then use smoke bombs to block the enemy's view, let the troops quietly approach the residential areas, and then launch a sudden attack. This kind of attack is really novel. "

As we were talking, we suddenly heard Gaidar's voice in a low voice: "Comrade division, an enemy armored car has come out of the residential area and is coming towards us!"
