Chapter 531

Seeing that jitov and I came back from the successful completion of our mission, trikov just nodded at us and asked faintly, "are you back? Has the reconnaissance mission been completed?"

"Report, comrade deputy commander," said jitov excitedly. "Political commissar jitov of the 70th division of Jinwei has reported to you that we have successfully completed the task of reconnaissance of the enemy's residential areas and returned smoothly. I'm here to report to you and wait for your instructions! "

"Well done! Comrade Titov. " Trikov nodded with satisfaction and gestured to him, "you must be tired after walking for so long. Sit down and have a cup of black tea with honey first."

Seeing that jitov sat down next to lyudnikov, I also went forward to salute trikov, and loudly reported: "Comrade report commander, independent division commander, Lieutenant Colonel oshanina, I have been ordered to report to you..."

"Take a moment, please! Comrade oshanina. " I didn't expect that before I spoke, trikov raised his hand and interrupted me. He asked directly, "have you found the missing Engineer in your division?"

"Yes, comrade commander." As I said this, I leaned over and wanted to introduce Mikhail yev, the construction engineer behind me. "You see, this Mikhail yev is the missing engineer of our division..."

I didn't expect that when I finished the process of finding the engineer, he interrupted me again and ordered coldly: "now that you have found it, you can go back to the independent division as soon as possible. Outside, I've equipped you with two trucks so that you and your guard team and reconnaissance team don't have to walk back to the station. "

In the face of trikov's cold attitude, I was a little at a loss, so I had to salute trikov again and asked aloud, "Comrade commander, can I leave?"

"Go As soon as I turned to leave, trakov suddenly said, "Comrade oshanina, I remind you that there are only two days left to attack the settlement. If you can't take it down, I won't be able to help you at that time. You'll have to go to general shumilov and plead with him yourself. "

These words hurt my self-esteem and made me feel very embarrassed. At that time, I felt my nose was sore and tears almost came out of my eyes because of my grievance. However, in front of my subordinates, I tried my best to control my emotions. I clenched my teeth and said, "please rest assured that the independent division will complete the tasks assigned by the superior."

"Then I wish you good luck!" "Now you can leave and go back to your troops as soon as possible," he said in an official voice

Arriving at the parking place outside the headquarters, Vera, with the soldiers from the guard class and the reconnaissance team, welcomed her and asked with concern, "Rita, what shall we do next?"

I pointed to the truck that was not far away and gave orders loudly: "the truck in front of the guard class, the soldier of the reconnaissance team, the truck in the back." Then I said to Gaidar in a low voice, "Comrade captain, you and the engineer should also get on the truck in the back. We should go back to the division as soon as possible." Seeing that Gaidar wanted to salute me, I patted him on the arm and urged him to "stop saluting and get on the bus."

As there was no jeep, I had to get into the bridge of the truck. On the way back to the station, I was thinking about the attitude of trakov towards me, why there was such a big change in the short term, and what unexpected things happened during the period when I left.

Approaching the defense area of the 208 th division, the road was blocked. Seeing that the car couldn't pass, the driver stopped the car steadily in the middle of the road. In the dim night, I saw at least twenty or thirty trucks parked on the road ahead. Seeing this scene, I said to the driver unhappily, "Comrade driver, go ahead and have a look. What's the matter? Why do so many cars stop here?"

The driver promised, pushed the door open and jumped down. Not long after the driver left, Gaidar, who was in the car behind, ran up to me and asked me strangely, "Sir, what happened in front of me? Why are so many cars parked here?"

I shook my head and replied, "I don't know what happened. But I've sent the driver to the front to inquire. When he comes back, everything will be clear. " With that, I also pushed the door open, got down from the bridge, stood with Gaidar, and looked anxiously at the motionless motorcade in front of me.

"Comrade teacher, I have a question that I always want to ask you. I don't know if it's suitable?" Maybe it's too boring to wait for news. Gaidar asked without saying anything.

"What's the matter, ask!" I said with disapproval.

"I think general trakov's attitude to you today is very different from that of last night. I don't know if there is something wrong during this day, which will lead to a great change in the general's attitude towards you. "

"Comrade captain," when I heard his question, I lowered my face and said with a straight face, "it's his own business that the commander treats me with. It's not up to you to care about it."

Fortunately, at this time, I saw the driver running towards us, and Gaidar escaped from being scolded by me. The driver ran to us, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said in a loud voice: "report, commander, I have made it clear that the reason why the front motorcade stopped was because there were several aerial bombs dropped by enemy planes on the road."

"Was the road blown up?" I asked nervously.

The driver shook his head and replied, "the road is not damaged, but the bomb on the road may explode at any time." Maybe it's to make a note of his words. His voice just fell, and the fire flashed in the distance, and then there was a loud bang, which made the land under my feet tremble slightly.

"Look, these bombs don't know when they will explode, so the drivers dare not drive forward. They are afraid that the bombs will explode as soon as they pass by. People's sacrifice is a small matter. I'm afraid that the ammunition in the car will explode, which will affect other vehicles. "

When I heard that the ammunition was transported on the vehicle, I couldn't help but feel that the ammunition transported by this fleet would not be supplied to us by the superior, would it? Thinking of this, he quickly took the driver and asked, "Comrade driver, do you know where the ammunition was transported?"

The driver shook his head, a little embarrassed to say: "sorry, comrade commander, I really did not ask."

Since I can't get any valuable information from the driver, I have to go to the front and ask myself. I looked at the light ahead, patted Gaidar on the shoulder and said, "come on, comrade captain, let's go ahead and have a look." With that, he walked forward.

The two of us walked forward quickly. The truck carriages along the road were covered with tarpaulin, and there were two or three soldiers who were escorting the truck. Because of their duty, they could not get off the bus at will. They could only sit in the car and look up at the area where the explosion happened just now.

Walking to the front, I saw a truck in the middle of the road, which was overturned and burned to the frame. A large group of people were surrounded by the truck. They were standing there staring at the newly exploded crater in front of them. The power of the bomb was not small. The crater formed by the explosion almost cut off the road.

I stepped forward and asked aloud, "who are you commanders? Who are you commanders?"

After a few shouts, a captain squeezed out of the crowd, walked up to me, raised his hand and said, "report to lieutenant commander, I'm the captain of the transportation team."

I looked at the scattered flames around the crater and asked, "Comrade captain, what's the matter? Why did the motorcade stop? "

The captain straightened his cornice cap, pointed to the front and said, "in the daytime air raid, the enemy dropped many time-lapse air bombs on the road ahead. Because we don't know when these bombs will explode, we can only stop temporarily when we can't ensure the safe passage of the motorcade. " Then he pounced on the wreckage of the truck and said, "this truck should have been damaged in the daytime air raid."

"Can you go around from left to right?" I looked around and saw that it was an open area, so I asked the captain.

"No way," said the captain, shaking his head. "The soil on both sides of the road is too soft. We are all heavy cars. We can't move as soon as we drive up."

"What measures have been taken?" I asked in an official voice.

"I've sent someone to the front station to look for engineers." He raised his hand, looked at his watch and said, "the soldiers have been away for half an hour. If there are engineers, they should be able to return in ten minutes."

I heard that the engineers would come in ten minutes, and I felt more secure. I took time to ask the captain where the convoy was going: "Comrade captain, which unit is this convoy transporting ammunition to?"

Hearing this, the captain quickly closed his mouth and looked me up and down warily. After a while, he answered vaguely, "Comrade commander, the whereabouts of the motorcade are military secrets. I have no right to disclose any information to you until I know your identity."

"Comrade captain, this is the commander of our independent division, lieutenant commander o'shanina." Gaidar didn't like the captain's face, so he explained my identity to the captain without my permission.

After listening to Gaidar, the captain quickly saluted me and reported, "Hello, comrade division. Our company was ordered to transport new weapons and ammunition to the independent division. Unexpectedly, when we got here, we were blocked by the aerial bombs dropped by the enemy planes. "

Hearing that the motorcade was transporting ammunition for us, Gaidar was a little upset. He leaned up to my ear and said, "Comrade division, we should find a way to pass through this place and deliver the ammunition to the commanders and fighters as soon as possible."

I pointed forward and said helplessly, "don't you see the power of the bomb that just exploded? It's such a big crater that we have to slow down when our car goes around. If another bomb explodes at this time, our motorcade will be finished. "

"What should we do, sir?" Gedar asked anxiously, "although the captain sent for the engineer, does the engineer have someone to help us with the bomb?"

At this time, there was a flash of fire in the distance, and then an earth shaking explosion came. It seemed that another bomb had exploded. Because I was close to the explosion point this time, I obviously felt the shock wave generated by the explosion, and I was rushed back a step.

The sudden explosion surprised my heart. I look up to the front, although I can't see where the rest of the bombs are, but my heart is hanging up. The explosions of these bombs are very irregular. Can the engineers who come to dismantle them guarantee their own safety?

It wasn't just my heart that became insecure, it was Gaidar and the captain that got upset. Gaidar walked back and forth in front of me, his mouth still kept saying: "Damn, it's been so long, why hasn't the engineer come yet?"

"Comrade captain, comrade captain." There was a faint cry in the distance.

Hearing this voice, the captain's face brightened. He woke up and said, "Comrade commander, it's the soldiers I sent to find engineers. It seems that our engineers are coming."

In less than two minutes after we were happy, the two soldiers panted in front of us, raised their hands to salute the captain, and reported, "report captain, we have just arrived at the friendly camp and told them our request for engineers. Unexpectedly, they told us that there were no engineers and that all the engineers were transferred to other areas to build fortifications."

"Is it?" The captain seized one of the soldiers by the collar and asked viciously, "is there no engineer?"

The soldier nodded his head hard, thought it was wrong, shook his head again, and replied, "yes, comrade captain, comrades of the friendly army told me that there are no engineers."

The captain was so angry that he pushed the soldiers hard. He came up to me and said angrily, "Comrade division commander, there are no engineers now. What do you think we should do?"

"Well, let's wait for the bomb to blow up." Gedar didn't wait for me to speak, but he put forward his own opinion first.

"No way!" I immediately denied his proposal. The explosions of these bombs are irregular. I don't know that it will take a long time to wait for all these bombs to explode“ We're pressed for time. We can't wait that long. "

"What then? Comrade teachers. " This time it's the captain of the Autobot.

"Comrade commander, I have a suggestion. I don't know whether to say it or not?" The driver of the truck I was sitting in, I don't know when he crowded up to me and asked for my opinions.

"Tell me." Since there are no engineers to deal with the bomb, we have to rely on ourselves.

"We put the team together and divided it into two teams. One team was responsible for pushing the bomb away from the road with a rope, and the other team was responsible for filling the crater formed by the bomb explosion. What do you think of my suggestion? "

"That's a good way to do it." Gaidar touched his chin with his hand and said thoughtfully, "but what advice should we give if the bomb explodes in the process of towing the bomb, but the driver still looked at me and waited for my final decision. To tell you the truth, I think the driver's proposal has great maneuverability, that is, it's difficult to control the time of bomb explosion. Maybe when the soldiers take the rope to set the bomb, or in the process of dragging, there may be an explosion. In that case, our soldiers will have a lot of casualties.

When I was in a dilemma, I suddenly thought of a movie I had seen before. The Germans dropped many time bombs in the city. The bomb said "white sugar". When the hungry and cold residents saw the word, they immediately flocked to grab the so-called white sugar in the bomb. As a result, at this time, the bomb suddenly exploded, causing heavy casualties to the residents. I clearly remember that before the explosion of the bomb, the wind wing at the tail of the bomb suddenly rotated at a high speed, driving the firing pin of the bomb to retract inward, hitting the fuse, and finally causing the explosion of the bomb.

As soon as I want to understand the explosion principle of the bomb, my mood suddenly relaxed a lot. I said to the three people in front of me, "I have come up with a way. As long as we can fix the wind wing at the end of the bomb and keep it from rotating, the bomb will not explode, so that we can safely transfer these bombs to the roadside."

As soon as my voice was over, the captain patted his thigh excitedly and said excitedly, "my God, I've transported so many bombs. Why didn't I expect that?" Speaking of this, he confidently said: "Mr. teacher, I've given you the task of fixing the wind wings. This small matter can't defeat me."

Then the captain called his men together, and Gaidar called in some of the men of the guard class and the strong soldiers of the reconnaissance unit. Dozens of soldiers were divided into two groups. One group was responsible for trapping the bombs with ropes and dragging them to the open field far away from the road; The other group took the time to fill two craters on the road.

Two hours later, the bombs in the way were removed and the craters were filled. After all this, trucks loaded with weapons and ammunition continued to move towards the independent division.

In order to get back the time lost in the bomb area, the Autobots drove very fast. Even the driver of my car was complaining and murmuring, "these guys are crazy. At night, when driving at such a fast speed on such a road, if you accidentally bump into a big pit, you will roll over. "

Fortunately, the driver's worry didn't come true. Within an hour, our motorcade arrived near the forest. As soon as we got close to the forest, the motorcade stopped. The driver looked out of the window and said to himself, "what's the matter? Why did you stop again?"

I just wanted to make fun of the driver. The driver suddenly turned back and said to me, "Comrade commander, look at it. The captain of the Autobot is here

I looked out of the window and saw captain Autobot and another man coming shoulder to shoulder. I quickly pushed the door open and got out of the car to meet them. A few steps away, I saw that the captain was also accompanied by an officer wearing a big cornice cap. I guessed that he might be the commander of the independent division, so I stopped and waited for the other party to report to me. Seeing me standing on the side of the road, the commander who came side by side with the captain speeded up and came to me to stand at attention and salute: "Comrade division commander, the commander of the seventh company of the first regiment reports to you and is waiting for your order." I nodded at him and said, "comrade company commander, you should immediately arrange for people to unload all the ammunition on the car, move it to the forest, and distribute it to everyone after daybreak." With that, I turned and looked up at the guard class still sitting in the car, sighed helplessly, and then ordered them: "guard class, all get off!"
