After the commanders who attended the meeting left one after another, chisjakov saw me sitting there quietly looking at the map. He couldn't help feeling a little worried: "my commander, why are you so calm? Don't you know that the enemy is attacking our garrison?"
I looked up at chisgakov, who was so worried that he stamped his feet, and said, "Comrade deputy commander, I know that the German army is attacking our troops on the east coast. But haven't I told the three division commanders of the troops to set up defenses by the river to rush back to command the troops in a hurry? "
"Comrades commander," he said anxiously as I said, "don't you know that the West Bank of all the rivers in Russia is high and steep, while the east bank is flat? Our army's temporary fortifications could not stop the German armored forces from attacking. "
"It doesn't matter if you can't stop it." I pointed to the map on the table and said to chisgakov, "we can ask general Nekrasov to make way for the Germans, and then the troops deployed in the second line will block the German attack. As long as the 52nd division of the close guard quickly recovers its position after the enemy passes, it will encircle the enemy. If we can annihilate the German forces along the Pripyat River, the resistance we will encounter when attacking moziri will be greatly reduced. "
Listen to me, chisgakov stopped whining and began to think about the map. After a long time, he finally nodded, and then said: "Comrade commander, you are right. We should try our best to consume the enemy's living strength along the Pripyat River, so as to prepare for our next capture of moziri."
Bezikov also came over, pointed to the map and said, "our three divisions, the 90th guard division and the 375TH infantry division, which were deployed along the Pripyat River, were severely weakened in the early fighting. If the German army chooses their breakthrough point, I don't think they can stop the German attack at all. "
"That's right," I echoed after he finished saying, "at present, among the three divisions, the 52nd division of general nikolasov's guards is the only one with the most troops and the strongest combat effectiveness. However, the German army has chosen the focus of attack here. It's strange that they don't touch a head and blood."
An hour later, Nekrasov called me. He said anxiously: "Comrade commander, the German army used a large number of tanks to launch a fierce attack on my defense area. Because our fortifications are too simple to resist the enemy's attack, we have been torn up a gap of nearly two kilometers, and the German army has rushed to our defense depth. "
"Comrade General, the German army has broken through your line of defense?" As the situation he reported was already in my expectation, I asked calmly, "I want to know what measures you have taken?"
"I'm organizing forces to counterattack the enemy who broke through the position." Niekrasov thought that I was going to blame him for asking this question. He quickly explained to me, "Comrade commander, please rest assured that I will take back the lost position within half an hour."
"Take the position back?" When I heard him say this, I couldn't help laughing. Then I said to him easily, "Comrade General, there's no need for this at the moment."
"What, don't you have to take back the lost position?" Nikolasov was confused by what I said. He asked, "Comrade commander, what's going on?"
"Comrade General, immediately order your troops to stop counterattack and retreat to the two wings of the defense line, leaving a passage for the Germans." After I gave this order at one go, I was deeply afraid that he would not understand my intention. I added: "after putting the enemy in, you will fight back, recover the lost positions and block the enemy's retreat. Do you understand? "
"I see, comrade commander." After listening to my explanation, nekrasovton suddenly realized that he immediately replied, "I understand everything. I'm going to follow your orders, stop the counterattack, retreat to both sides of the line, and make way for the German army. "
I put down the phone and thought about my battle plan carefully. I felt that I should inform baksov and babashin to prepare for the battle in advance, so that they would not be caught off guard by the enemy who crossed the line of the 52nd division. Thinking of this, I picked up the phone again and dialed the joint headquarters of the two divisions.
After hearing baksov's voice, I said frankly, "general baksov, the German army has broken through the line of the 52nd division of the guards and is charging at you. You should make all preparations immediately to avoid being caught off guard by the German army. "
Barksov was startled by what I said. He asked in some confusion: "Comrade commander, what's the matter? How long has it been since the end of the meeting? How can general Nekrasov's position be broken through by the enemy?"
"It's no surprise that the enemy's offensive is too fierce, and the troops stationed by the river have no solid fortifications to block the enemy's attack." After two words, I said, "you must be ready for all battles and resolutely block the German attack. I have ordered general nikolasov to immediately resume his lost position after the enemy passes through, and to keep this enemy in the rear of our army. When the enemy's offensive momentum weakens, you will launch a counterattack and make sure to wipe out this enemy completely. Do you understand? "
However, baksov did not reply to me immediately. On the contrary, he said anxiously: "Comrade commander, if the enemy has a large number of tank troops, I am afraid that we will not be able to complete the task you told us."“ Don't worry, general baksov Fortunately, the self-propelled artillery regiment with enough shells was deployed in the rear of their defense area, so I can say with full assurance: "our self-propelled artillery regiment is in the rear of your defense area. If you need artillery support, you can contact him directly."“ That's great. That's great. " When barksov listened to what I said, he suddenly felt energetic. He patted his chest and assured me, "Comrade commander, you can rest assured. With the support of the self-propelled artillery regiment, we can completely annihilate the enemy who has intruded into the rear of our army, and we will have full confidence. Please wait patiently for the news of our victory. " As soon as I had finished the deployment of annihilating the enemy, belov called to warn me: "Comrade oshanina, my scouts reported to me that the German army had sent out two divisions and directly rushed to the pripyaji river. You should be on your guard so as not to be hit suddenly by the German army. "“ Thank you, Comrade General After thanking belov for his kind reminder, I said to him, "the enemy is attacking our east coast position, but it doesn't matter. I have set traps for them and they will jump in."
