Chapter 1307

Now that I have the whereabouts of the detachment, I will definitely report it to watujing, who has always been concerned about it. When I got through to the headquarters of the front army, it was major general kleinukov, the new military commissar of the front army, who answered the phone.

When he recognized my voice, he immediately asked politely with a smile, "Hello, general o'shanina! May I ask you to call Comrade commander? Is there anything important

I didn't know if he knew that watujing had sent a reconnaissance team to search for the amber room, so he said anxiously, "Comrade military commissar, can you ask the senior general to answer the phone? I have something very important to report to him. "

When I said this, kleinukov said with some displeasure: "Comrade oshanina, the German army is launching a fierce attack in the southwest of Kiev, and our 38th army is almost out of support. The commander is mobilizing troops from other directions to meet the German forces. If you have anything important to tell me, I'll let the commander know when he's free. "

Although kleinukov's attitude is so unfriendly, I can't get angry with him. After all, he is my superior. It's a very serious act to commit crimes in the Soviet army. I don't want to affect my future for such a small matter. I coughed hard, and then said vaguely, "Comrade military commissar, please tell the commander that the detachment is missing. We have just received a telegram from them. I will report the specific situation to the commander when he is free. "

"Unit, what unit?" "Comrade oshanina, I'm confused by what you're talking about," he asked mistily

I opened my mouth and was hesitating whether I should simply report the matter to him. However, vatukin's voice unexpectedly came out of the receiver: "Hello, o'shanina, what did you say just now? The team has news? Is it major trafkin's team? "

"Yes, Comrade General." When I heard watujing's voice, I guessed that it was watujing who grabbed the microphone from him when he heard the military commissar mention the detachment. When I heard that he was so concerned about this, I told him the telegram from travkin in detail.

As soon as I finished my report, I heard someone shouting beside me. It seemed that there was something urgent. "I'll be right there," watujing said to the side Then he told me, "Comrade oshanina, I know about this matter. If major trafkin has any latest news, please call me immediately."

After I put down the phone, kirilov immediately asked with concern, "Rita, what does commander vatujing say?"

"What else can we say? Of course, let's report to him as soon as we have information." I shrugged my shoulders and said helplessly, "but we don't know what will be said in the telegram we received in the evening."

Kirilov seemed full of confidence in travkin. He said confidently, "Rita, I'm sure the major's telegram in the evening will bring us good news."

"I hope so, my comrade military Commissar." After that, I turned to bezikov and said, "chief of staff, in order to prevent the German army's counterattack against Zhitomir, the headquarters of the front army ordered us to strengthen the city's defense immediately. I have ordered general tavartkilaze to transfer his command to the city of Zhitomir, where he can command the troops better. "

"Comrade commander," chisjakov interrupted immediately after hearing what I said to bezikov, "in order to strengthen the defense of Zhitomir, I suggest that at least one artillery regiment be deployed to the east of the city. In this way, when attacked by the German army, our artillery can stop and shoot the enemy's tanks and infantry. "

"I agree." As for the whole proposal of chisgakov, I agreed without thinking. Then I said to bzikov, who was recording the order: "chief of staff, one artillery regiment may not have enough firepower. You call general povsky and ask him to send another two close guard rocket barracks to hide in the forest area in the east of the city and prepare for all battles. "

As I thought that they would have information back at night, I no longer paid attention to the reconnaissance team, but gave orders to the divisions to prepare for the counterattack of the German army.

I'm not in a hurry about the reconnaissance team, but someone is. Just after noon, watujing called. As soon as he heard my voice, he couldn't wait to ask, "Hello, comrade oshanina, major, do they have the latest information?"

"No, senior general. I don't have any up-to-date information about them. " Staring at the battle map in front of me, I said absently, "if there is any news, I will report it to you immediately."

Hearing what I said, vatukin said with some disappointment, "well, I'll wait for your latest news."

I thought they would not send a telegram until after dark. I didn't expect that just in the evening, lophov came over from the nearby communication room with a telegram, and said to me with a smile: "Comrade commander, I just received a telegram from major trafkin from the enemy."

"Show it to me." I took the telegram in his hand and immediately got close to my eyes. I couldn't wait to browse it.

"Comrade commander, what did the major say in the telegram?" Asked chisgakov with concern. After I gave the phone to chisgakov, I said to kirilov and bzikov, who were waiting anxiously: "the major said that after a day of reconnaissance, they finally got something. There are a lot of covered trucks parked near the bank in the city. The major immediately recognized that some of them were driven away from the base at the beginning... "That's great, that's great." Before I finished, kirilov cheered: "since the trucks are here, the cultural relics we are looking for must be in the bank." After a pause, he asked, "by the way, have they seen the wooden boxes that hold the amber room with their own eyes?" Seeing kirilov's gaffe, I said with a bitter smile, "Comrade military commissar, I haven't finished my words. The major said that because the uniforms and documents prepared by the superior for them were lost, and they were wearing the uniform of ordinary soldiers, they could not get close to the bank at all. " Hearing this, kirilov sat down like a deflated balloon and murmured, "hell, if they don't try to get into the bank, how can they know if the amber room is in it?"“ Don't worry, comrade military Commissar. " Although I don't have confidence in whether they can get into the bank, I still comfort kirilov: "since the major can successfully parachute before the plane crash and touch luzk, I think they will always find a way to get into the bank to see if the things we are going to leave are in it."
