Chapter 592

After the meeting, I called Oleg and verol to my headquarters and planned to discuss with them how to settle our team. After all, even if busmanov left with a company, there would be more than 500 or 600 troops in the station, and a considerable number of commanders and fighters had no German uniform.

As soon as I entered the headquarters, I first went to Shula, leaned down and said to her, "Shula, immediately send a message to lieutenant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant Sergeant serge. In order to successfully pass through the German blockade line, Captain busmanov, they all changed into German uniforms. Please pay attention to identification and do not misunderstand your own people. "

Shula agreed, and immediately put her finger on the sending button and started to send the message.

I told Shura to send the message and turned back to my position. Looking up, he found that Oleg and veroll were still standing by and asked them to sit down.

As soon as the unhappy Oleg sat down, he said, "Comrade teacher, I can't figure it out."

"I can't figure it out. What can't?" Oleg's words confused me. After staring at him for a long time, I asked tentatively, "commander Oleg, do you mean I shouldn't have asked the German lieutenant to tell the commanders about the fighting experience just now?"

I didn't expect that Oleg, after listening, desperately waved his hands and said, "no, it's not this thing?"

It's not this. What's wrong with it? I did not speak, just quietly looking at him, waiting for him to take the initiative to tell me the answer.

After a short silence, he finally said: "I have no objection to your order to release all the German prisoners. But you also let them work with our soldiers. Although there are four of us in the five person patrol, I don't trust them. I don't think you should trust them like this. "

When I heard that, the stone hanging in my heart fell to the ground. I leaned back on the back of my chair and said with disapproval, "why am I doing this? It's this. Commander Oleg, as you said just now, the ratio of the German soldiers on duty to our soldiers is 1:4, and there are no bullets in their guns, so nothing can happen. "

"But why should these German soldiers be on duty with our soldiers?" "Don't you trust them so much?" Oleg asked

After listening to Oleg's words, I thought for a moment and answered him, "yes, commander Oleg, I believe them. Because these German soldiers who have just been released are not the SS soldiers brainwashed by the government, but the ordinary soldiers of the national defense forces. As long as they understand that their cooperation with us is not against the Germans, but for the birth of a new Germany and against the Communist Party represented by Hitler, they will choose to cooperate with us. "

"But, just in case..." Oleg tried to persuade me again, but I stopped without hesitation. I turned to ask veroll, "political commissar veroll, I'm looking for you and lieutenant commander Oleg to study how to hide our surplus troops so that the German troops coming tomorrow won't find them. Do you have any good idea? "

Verol frowned and thought for a moment, then said hesitantly, "if you want to hide, you can only let those troops without German uniform hide to the second floor of the waiting hall of the station. I went up to check. Although the buildings were seriously damaged by the German artillery fire, there were still many places upstairs where the troops could be concealed. In addition, I have a suggestion. "

"What advice? Come on, verol

"I think that after the new German troops are placed in the warehouse, we should draw a cordon on the platform and forbid those Germans to come. In this way, we can reduce the possibility of being seen through..."

Just as verol said this, there was a loud noise outside the door. I vaguely heard a familiar voice calling out: "let me in, let me in. I have something important to report to my teacher."

Hearing the noise outside, I could not help frowning. I told Shura, who was looking around: "Shura, go out and have a look. What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"

Shula nodded, got up, opened the door and went out. After a while, Shula stood at the door, holding the door with her hand, and reported to me, "Comrade division, there is a soldier named Boris outside. He said that he had an important situation to report to you, but he was blocked by the sentry at the door."

"Let him in." Before Shura finished, I gave the order straight.

Almost at the end of my order, Boris, who was carrying a rifle, rushed in. Without paying any attention to saluting me, he said aloud, "report, sir, something's wrong!"

"What's the matter?"

"There are two... Two German soldiers, fleeing... Fleeing!" Boris reported breathlessly.

"What?! Some German soldiers have escaped Hearing this shocking news, all three of US jumped up from our positions. Oleg grabbed Boris by the collar and asked nervously, "come on, what's going on?"

Maybe Oleg was so hard that Boris coughed violently. After a short period of panic, I calmed down a little. Seeing that Boris was strangled, I hurried over and asked Oleg to let go. Then I asked Boris, "tell me, what's the matter?"

After Oleg loosened the collar of Boris, Boris still covered his throat with his hand and gasped for a while. When he felt a little better, he replied to me, "Sir, two German soldiers ran away with empty guns."

"How did you run, and in what direction?"

"Just when I was on guard, I saw two men in German uniforms walking south along the tracks. Because it's a little far away, I can't see each other's faces clearly. In addition, they are still carrying guns. I thought they were our soldiers on patrol, so I didn't care. I didn't expect that the two people walked farther and farther away. They were 70 or 80 meters away from the station, but they didn't stop. I realized that it was wrong, so I called them to stop. I didn't expect that it was OK not to shout. Hearing my cry, they ran away. For fear of exposing the target, I didn't dare to shoot, but followed them. They are running too fast. I haven't caught up with them for some distance, so I'll report back to you. "

After hearing what he said, I felt hot on my face. I just thought that Oleg vowed that the German prisoners would cooperate with us, but I didn't expect that there was a desertion. "How long have they been running?" I asked, biting my back teeth

"Less than five minutes." Boris quickly replied, and then added: "two people may not be familiar with the road, so they fled south along the railway line."

"What should I do, sir?" Oleg asked me.

In my mind, I quickly thought about the terrain in the south of the station. In my impression, there is a road close to the railway. If people take a motorcycle to chase, they should be able to catch up. So I quickly ordered Oleg: "Comrade commander, you take Boris and another class of soldiers to chase south along the railway line by motorcycle. Live to see people, even if killed, but also to bring their bodies back to me

"Yes, I promise to finish the task." Oleg agreed, turned and waved his head to Boris beside him: "follow me."

Looking at the figure of the two men leaving, verol asked in a flustered way: "Comrade division, do you think they can catch the two escaped German soldiers?"

"Of course, we should catch them. If they escape back to the Germans, all our disguises will be exposed. " At this point, I told verol: "you go and call captain gramus, and he will give me an account of this desertion."

When verol left, I looked at the map on my desk in a daze, calculating the distance from the station to the nearest German camp in the south. The distance between the two places was five kilometers. It took two German soldiers almost 20 minutes to reach their destination if their physical strength allowed. Now it's almost 10 minutes later. In other words, Oleg's motorcade must stop them before they finish the rest of the journey, otherwise everything will be over.

Verol came back soon, because captain gramus's residence was not far from the headquarters. Grimes was obviously aware of the escape of his subordinates, so he was serious when he entered the door.

"Captain Grimes," I said coldly, looking at him, "as you probably know, two soldiers ran away with empty guns. I asked you to come here to hear your opinion. What are you going to do with these two deserters when they are captured? "

After listening to Mikhail's translation, Grimes replied without hesitation: "Sir, I will shoot all my subordinates in front of them."

Grimes' statement made me feel better. If he refused to deal with the deserters, maybe I would order him and his subordinates to be disposed of immediately. In such an extraordinary period, there must be no unstable factors around us. Now that he had made it clear how to deal with it, I nodded slightly and said, "now that the captain has a way to deal with it, go and gather your men together. When the two deserters are captured by commander Oleg, you will shoot them in front of your men

After listening to me, grimace nodded and said, "well, sir, I'll shoot these two bloody deserters myself."

When we left the headquarters, I told veroll in a low voice: "political commissar veroll, you should immediately transfer to the army to strengthen the defense in the south of the station, so that even if the Germans fight, we have time to deal with it." As soon as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought that maybe things would not be as bad as I thought, so he added: "if Lieutenant Colonel Oleg can bring the deserters back smoothly, he only needs to add a few more sentries in the south."

Verol quickly replied, "yes, sir. I'll arrange it now."

Grimes soon assembled his troops on the platform. For fear of any further change, verol sent a company of troops to guard around the thirty German soldiers and surrounded them.

Grimes turned a blind eye to the armed commanders and fighters around him. After finishing his unit, he came to me, raised his hand and said, "Sir, Captain Grimes reports to you that company E, 103rd German infantry regiment, has assembled and is waiting for your instructions."

After glancing at the German line, I said, "Sir captain, all I can give you now is to stand by!"

After hearing this, Grimes quickly turned to his line and announced to his subordinates in a loud voice, "stand by!"

In this way, dozens of German officers and soldiers with empty guns were surrounded by hundreds of Soviet officers and soldiers with live ammunition. The platform was quiet, and none of them spoke. Even if someone coughs, cover his mouth with his hand, so as not to disturb the peace of the scene.

Waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, suddenly came the cry of Boris: "teacher, comrade teacher, where are you?"

I listened, but Boris' voice didn't seem flustered, proving that their actions were fruitful, so I answered in a loud voice in the direction of the sound: "I'm here!"

Soon, I saw Boris squeeze out from among the soldiers on the south side of the platform. He came to me, raised his hand with a happy face and reported, "Comrade division commander, we have captured two deserters."

When I heard the report from Boris, there were two shouts of relief around me. It was only because the German officers and soldiers knew what Boris was saying when they heard the translation, so their reaction was half a beat slower than our soldiers.

There was a rush of footsteps coming from a distance, and then I heard someone shouting, "let's go, comrades, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go! Comrades, give way... "

The soldier who served as the guard gave way to a passage, and then Oleg strode from the middle, followed by a dozen soldiers, and two soldiers whose hands were cut back behind him and escorted by the soldiers. Needless to say, these two must be the deserters who had just been captured.

Oleg came up to me, raised his hand and said, "report to division commander, two deserters have been captured by us. What should we do with them? "

I raised my chin in the direction of Captain Grimes and said, "give these two men to captain Grimes."

"But, sir,...." Oleg looked at Grimes and said with some embarrassment, "is this how to give the deserters to captain Grimes?"

"Yes, commander Oleg." I said faintly, "give these two men to captain Grimes. He knows what to do with deserters."

Oleg heard my order, had no choice but to agree: "yes." Then he told the soldiers behind him, "do you hear me? Carry out the order immediately and give the two deserters to captain Grimes. "

Two German soldiers, who were tied by the enemy, were retreated to the German line by angry soldiers. After they stumbled to the front of the line, a German Sergeant suddenly opened his mouth and cried out.

I couldn't understand their German, so I asked Mikhail, "Lieutenant, what are they talking about?"

Mikhail yev's eyes glared at the two German soldiers, and his mouth translated for me: "soldiers, compatriots, these Russians are like asking you to take up arms and fight the Germans. Now the army of our great German Empire has stepped on the threshold of Stalingrad. As long as we take another step forward, we can occupy the city. Soldiers... "

It has to be said that the German Sergeant had a lot of eloquence, and the expression of many soldiers in the queue became blank. After listening to the translation of my companions, the soldiers around me also yelled at each other, and the scene became chaotic.

I asked Mikhail in a low voice, "do you know who this sergeant is?"

Mihayev hesitated and said, "it's like the second squad leader in the platoon of second lieutenant gretka. I can't remember his name."

"Don't think about it if you can't remember. Anyway, he will be a dead man soon. A dead man, even if he is a German marshal, he is just a dead body without knowing it. " I stepped forward, raised my hands above my head, and cried out, "be quiet, please be quiet! Comrades, please be quiet

The platform soon quieted down. I went up to the two deserters, gave them a scornful look, and then said aloud to the German soldiers who were standing in order: "soldiers, I'm captain oshanina of the Soviet independent division. I have a few words to say."

My words were immediately translated into German by lieutenant gretka, who was standing in front of the line: "I just heard this German Sergeant say that one of your feet has entered the gate of Stalingrad. As long as you step forward, you can occupy the city. I want to ask you, is that possible? Do you think the city will be lost even though the German army is at present? No, I'm here to tell you solemnly, no, Stalingrad will never fall, and the banner of Lenin and Stalin will always fly high above this city. If nothing else, you should be able to feel that in the defense area of our independent division, even several divisions of the elite Holt tank 4th group army, not only failed to move forward, but also suffered heavy losses under our continuous attack. "

Facts speak louder than words. My words made the German soldiers begin to whisper. Seeing this, I quickly struck while the iron was hot and said, "soldiers, the sergeant said, I want you to take up your arms and fight against your companions. Here, I want to tell you that what he said is also right and wrong. He is right because it is the Germans who will fight against you in the future; No, it is because these Germans who are going to fight against you are loyal to Hitler. They are not only the enemies of our Soviet Union, but also the enemies of your German people. I want to tell those soldiers who have doubts that if you are on the same front with us now, on the day when Germany is defeated, you officers and men who once took up arms and fought bravely with Hitler's communists will become heroes of the new German Empire. " My words, perhaps a little too bizarre, both the German soldiers and my commanders and fighters were stunned, and the whole platform was silent, because at the critical moment of Stalingrad, I was shocked to announce that we could not only defend Stalingrad, but also defeat the German, if I was not the division commander, They think I'm a psycho. I raised my hand and looked at my watch. I thought I had finished what I could say, so I went up to gramus and said to him, "Captain gramus, I'll leave these two deserters to you. It's up to you to deal with them." With that, I turned and walked back to the middle of my queue. The color on Grimes' face was red and white, and he hesitated for a long time before he turned and said something loudly to his subordinates, probably asking for their advice. The German line was silent at first, then called out in order, and it was a simple word. As soon as I turned my head and looked at Mikhail, before I could speak, he had already taken the initiative to smile and said to me, "Comrade division commander, these soldiers have taken the initiative to ask captain gramus to shoot these two deserters. The word they yelled was "shoot." Grimes turned and nodded to me. Although he didn't speak, I understood that he had made the final decision.
