Chapter 930

As soon as I walked into the regiment command post, I felt like I had come to the vegetable market. The telegraph operator yelled at the top of his voice, and the telegram ticked. At the same time, there were many communication or staff members going in and out, too busy. No matter whether they are going in or out, when they see me, they have to stop and salute me.

I nodded at them and walked quickly to behind shijerikov. At this time, he was facing me with his back, one hand covering his ear, the other hand holding the microphone, and yelled loudly: "Captain Nikolay, I order you to immediately organize your troops to carry out counter attacks, and eliminate all the enemies wedged into the defensive positions of your battalion..."

After he finished his call with Captain Nikolay, he dialed a number again, because the voice in the command post was so noisy that I didn't know which army he was contacting. After he said a few words in front of the microphone, he suddenly covered the microphone with his hand and yelled at the signalmen and staff officers: "be quiet, be quiet. I can't hear what's on the phone at all when you're so noisy! "

With his roar, the room suddenly quieted down. Shejerikov let go of his hand covering the receiver and said to the other party in a loud voice, "Hello, operator, this is lieutenant commander shejerikov. Get me the sixth company of sherebrian camp immediately. Yes, find me lieutenant dongnechi of the sixth company. "

As the room was very quiet at the moment, I heard a familiar voice from the receiver: "Hello, comrade commander."

"Where's lieutenant antonich?" Asked chejerikov.

"The company commander just died in the battle. Report to commander, we have destroyed two tanks coming from the pontoon, and we have repulsed the infantry following us. "

"Who are you? Who's talking to me? " Asked chejerikov, puzzled.

"It's me, comrade commander. It's me, Sergeant Adil... "

"It's you, Sergeant Adil." Shejerikov continued: "besides you, are there any other commanders in the company now?"

"No, comrade commander." Sergeant Adil replied quickly: "the rest of the commanders either died or were wounded and evacuated. At present, I have the highest rank in the company. "

Shejerikov was silent for a moment, then asked, "how many troops do you have now?"

"Report to the commander that there are 43 people in the company, including the wounded, who are still capable of fighting."

"Do you have the confidence to hold the position?"

Adil was silent for a long time before he hesitated and said, "Comrade commander, I'm not sure if I can stop the next German attack. If you can add 30 people to me, I think I can stay in the position until noon tomorrow. "

When sergeant Adil said that, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Without thinking, I raised my hand to grab the microphone in jerichov's hand. Xie jerikov, who was talking to adir, noticed that someone was behind him. He turned around and was about to lose his temper. When he saw that the person who wanted to grab the microphone was me, he quickly and respectfully handed me the microphone.

"Comrade sergeant," I said to the microphone, "I'll give you a company. Can you hold it?"

Adil immediately recognized my voice and quickly assured me, "Comrade commander, please rest assured that as long as the company you added to me arrives, I will firmly hold the position and never let the enemy rush over the pontoon again."

I put down the phone and told Yushchenko who was following: "Comrade captain, transfer a company from your guard camp to sergeant Adil's position. Move quickly, and be sure to get into the fighting position before the German attack again. "

After Yushchenko left, I turned and asked shijerikov, "Comrade commander, where is the battle going on?" In fact, my question is a bit superfluous. The shooting sound of rifles and machine guns from the outside is clear and audible. The dust on the roof and ceiling is not falling from the top with the explosion of shells.

I didn't wait for the answer from sjerikov. I asked another way: "how did the German army rush into the city?" At the end of this question, I added reluctantly, "it's the pride of your regiment, the shereblenner battalion, who held the riverside position. How could the German army break through their position so easily?"

On hearing my question, shijerikov bowed his head and replied in shame: "Comrade commander, it's like this. The German army took advantage of the opportunity when our army was bombarded and could not observe, and sent elite engineering troops to repair the pontoon. As soon as the bridge was repaired, five German tanks rushed over. Since our anti tank guns could not destroy the enemy's tanks, we could only watch them rush into the city. Seeing the enemy break through our line of defense, the officers and men in the position fell into chaos. After major shereblenny immediately organized his men to blow up the tanks rushing into the city, he found that the scene was out of control. "

"Out of control?" After listening, I frowned and asked, "how can I not control it?"

"The German infantry came in droves from the ice when our regiment was in chaos." Shejerikov explained to me with a sad face: "although our commanders and fighters fought tenaciously, there were still many enemies rushing into the city. At present, I have sent three battalions and my guard company to wipe out the German troops in the city

After listening to Xie jielikov's words, I know why we can't see any vigilant troops near the regiment headquarters. Originally, they were sent out by him to clear up the enemy who had entered the city. I gave a wry smile and said lightly, "Comrade commander, we were just on our way here when we were stopped by a small group of German troops. Fortunately, the guard platoon I took was very effective. It took only a few minutes to wipe out the enemy. "

"What, you were ambushed by the German army?" He looked me up and down nervously, and asked with concern, "Comrade commander, are you not hurt?"

I waved my hand and said, "don't worry about my safety. The bullet that can kill me hasn't been made yet. By the way, what's the matter with Captain Nikolay? I just heard that he was attacked by the German army? "

"Yes, comrade commander." Speaking of camp Nikolay, the expression on his face became gloomy again. "His camp is at the junction of our regiment and the fourth regiment. Just now, about one company's infantry, under the cover of several tanks, broke through the position of the second company and wedged into the defensive depth of the battalion. I just called to urge captain Nicholas to send troops to fight back and wipe out the enemy as soon as possible. " At this point, he stopped and came for a moment. He asked tentatively, "Comrade commander, this captain Nicholas used to work under the German army. Seeing that the situation is not good for our army, he won't lead the army to change sides, will he?"

"Lt. Col. chejerikov." When I heard sjerykov express his worries, I immediately sternly reprimanded him: "although captain Nikolay had worked under the German before, it was in the past after all. The more critical the moment is, the more our commanders have to trust their subordinates, so as to ensure the stability of the military. Do you understand? "

"I see, comrade commander." I have been taught two sentences of Xie jierikov face embarrassed to reply.

"What's the situation in the fourth regiment?" After learning the situation of the first regiment, I asked jerikov about the situation of the fourth regiment.

"According to the intelligence, the German army did not repair the floating bridge in the direction of the fourth regiment. In the whole front of the defense, the enemy still only launched an attack from the ice by infantry."

"Sergeant chejerikov, since the fourth regiment is under little pressure at present, you should immediately call commander Gaidar and ask him to send troops to reinforce you from the flank." I was deeply afraid that shijerikov would delay his business and urged him to say, "don't delay. Call him immediately."

Shijerikov nodded, went to a telephone, took the earphone from the operator's hand, put it on, regardless of the code, and yelled at the transmitter: "Hello, Hello, commander Gaidar? Hello, do you hear me, commander gedar? I'm shijerikov. Do you hear me? German tanks and infantry broke through our regiment and rushed into the city. Please support, please support! "

"You are not the only one who has been attacked." Gedar's familiar voice rang from his earphone. He said unhappily, "German infantry are constantly attacking our regiment's position from the ice. My troops are fighting. It may be difficult to send troops to reinforce you."

Hearing Gaidar's unwillingness to send troops for support, I raised my hand and patted Sergey on the shoulder, signaling him to give me the transmitter and earphone. I put on my headphones and said solemnly to the transmitter, "Hello, commander gedar, this is oshanina."

"Army commander and comrade, it's you!" When he heard my voice, Gaidar looked a little flustered. He said nervously, "what instructions do you have?"

"Colonel gedar, I'll ask you." As for his performance that he just failed to save himself, I asked with great dissatisfaction: "why do you not want to send troops to reinforce a regiment when you see it in a critical situation?"

"Well, comrade commander, please listen to me." According to the frontier report, German engineers are repairing the pontoon, and the gathering of German tanks can be seen by the river in the distance. I think as soon as the pontoon is repaired, German tanks will rush over. So I have to leave enough troops to cope with the possible German attack

When Gaidar finished, I calculated the strength of the fourth regiment in my mind and told him straightforwardly, "commander Gaidar, if we remember correctly, the organizational structure of the fourth regiment is four battalions, each battalion has five companies, and each company has 200 people. Even though there were many casualties in the early fighting, your regiment still has at least 3000 people. I now order you, as commander, to immediately dispatch two companies to the defense area of a regiment and a battalion to assist captain Nikolay in destroying the German troops in the area. "

"I see, comrade commander." For my arrangement, Gaidar did not dare to oppose, but reluctantly agreed: "I will immediately send troops to reinforce camp Nicholas."

After I finished the call with Gaidar, I went to the table again, picked up the phone on the table, and connected to one of Nikolay's battalions. When I heard Nikolay's voice coming from the receiver, I asked with concern, "Hello, Captain Nikolay, what's the situation there?"

Nikolay was very excited to hear my voice. He said in a loud voice, "report to the commander, my troops are charging against the buildings occupied by the German army. Because the enemy stopped outside the building and the tanks that served as the firepower and battery were very strong, our anti tank guns could not penetrate its armor, so a charge just launched ended in failure. "

"Comrade captain, if the attack fails, let's do it again." I cheered for captain Nikolay on the phone, "since the enemy's tanks are too strong, then you should not organize a frontal attack. It's no different from being killed in vain. You can attract the attention of German tanks with fire in the front, and send an offensive force around to the back of the enemy and beat them from behind their buttocks. As a commander, if you want to win, it's not enough to be brave. You have to learn how to think, fight skillfully, and win the most with the least casualties! Comrade captain, do you understand? "“ I understand, comrade commander. " Nikolay said excitedly on the phone: "I will immediately deploy a new round of attack according to your arrangement." Just as he was talking, the door suddenly heard the sound of intensive gunfire, mixed with the sound of grenade explosion. I was just about to ask shejerikov to send someone to see what was going on when Yushchenko rushed in from the outside with a gun. As soon as he entered the door, he reported to me in a loud voice: "Comrade commander, there are probably more than 50 German soldiers coming towards us along the street. The enemy is now engaged with sergeant razalev's security squad and the machine gun fire point of a regiment. "“ Comrade captain, "when I heard that the German troops were rushing towards the command post of the first regiment, I directly ordered Yushchenko to" leave a squad to protect the security of the command post of the regiment, and the rest of them immediately go to support razalev and his troops. "“ Yes Yushchenko agreed loudly, turned around and ran out with the gun. As soon as Yushchenko left, I turned to shejerikov and said, "Comrade commander, you can't have no security forces in your command post, otherwise, as long as the enemy comes to dozens of people, you will be destroyed." After listening to me, xiejerikov shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Comrade commander, do you think I want to do this? But there is no way. All the troops are sent out, and there is no surplus force to serve as the guard of the regiment headquarters. "
