Chapter 1423

Our plan for the attack on moziri was to launch a heavy artillery attack on the German peripheral defensive positions at 6 a.m., and after an hour's artillery preparation, the infantry would attack from four directions of the city at the same time.

Belov arrived at my headquarters before four o'clock. As soon as he got to the door, I heard his hearty laughter. I quickly got up to greet him and said politely, "welcome, general Batov. Welcome to my headquarters."

Belov took my hand and said excitedly: "Comrade oshanina, for more than half a month, our troops have been unable to launch an attack on moziri alone because of the shortage of soldiers and ammunition, so they have to stay in the trenches and confront the enemy. The thought of launching a general attack on moziri's enemies today made me too excited to sleep, so I came here early. "

After I asked him to sit down at the table, I poured a cup of hot tea from the teapot on the table and put it in front of him. I politely said, "Comrade General, it's too cold outside. You must be very cold after driving so far. Come on, have a cup of hot tea to warm up. "

Batov took the cup in the silver cup holder, sipped it gently and asked, "how are you, comrade oshanina? Are you ready?"

"Yes, they are all ready, Comrade General." I thought of the new tank and artillery troops. Before I could report them to him, I took this opportunity to say, "there's another thing I haven't reported to you. Last night, the Fifth Army of the close guard tank and several artillery regiments arrived. In this way, we can be more fully prepared for the fire before the attack. "

Hearing this news, Batov opened his mouth a little unexpectedly and asked in surprise, "what do you say, the Fifth Army of the close guard tank is here, and how many other artillery regiments are there?"

"That's right," I nodded, and answered positively, "in addition to replenishing enough ammunition, we have tank troops and a number of artillery regiments."

"Great, that's great..."

"What's great?" Before belov finished speaking, a voice came from the side and asked, "can I share your good news?"

I turned my head and saw cheroff coming out of the room leading to the basement. He quickly stood up from his seat, straightened his back, and said respectfully, "Hello, comrade Deputy people's Commissar. The battle doesn't start until six o'clock. Why don't you sleep a little longer? "

Sheroff waved to me and said with a smile, "I can't sleep, so I got up early to have a look. Besides, in the past, when there was a big war, I didn't sleep for a few days and nights, which was a common practice. " Then he looked at belov sitting beside me and asked curiously, "who is the general next to you?"

"Comrade sharov, let me introduce you." According to Russian tradition, I first introduce people with higher status to those with lower level, "this is general belov of the 65th group army command."

Later, I introduced to belov: "Comrade General, this is Comrade Xie Luofu, vice people's member of the Ministry of interior. He is the plenipotentiary representative of the Ministry of interior to the front army. This time, he was under the command of the Supreme Commander himself to supervise and understand our implementation of the moziri strategy. "

After listening to my introduction, bilov showed an embarrassed expression on his face, but he still took the initiative to extend his hand to Xie Luo Fu and said politely: "Hello, comrade Deputy people's commissar, although you have been working in the headquarters of the front army for a long time, I have never seen you since I have been commanding operations outside."

"General belov, I see you for the first time, too." "I hope our cooperation this time can be a good start," sheroff said politely

After the two exchanged greetings, everyone took a seat again. Bizikov poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of sherov. Then he said in a respectful tone, "Comrade Deputy people's commissar, the battle will start in two hours. Do you need me to report to you the preparations of the troops again?"

Cheroff, holding the teacup in both hands, leaned back on the back of his chair, nodded and said, "well, there's nothing wrong now, comrade colonel. Please give me a detailed introduction to the combat deployment."

"All right, comrade Deputy people's Commissar." Bezikov told shirov about our combat deployment in a servile manner. He even gave a detailed report on some problems that he might encounter in the battle and how to deal with them.

Bezikov talked on and on, sherov listened with interest, but my eyelids began to fight. But for the sake of politeness, I still tried to refresh myself by drinking cup after cup of black tea, so as not to doze off by the boring report.

At the end of bezikov's report, sharov nodded with satisfaction and then said to me, "Comrade oshanina, it seems that you have done a good job in preparation. I believe you will achieve satisfactory results in today's battle."

After muttering in my heart, I said with a smile: "Comrade Deputy people's commissar, I believe my soldiers will be very brave in the battle. No matter how strong the fortifications of the enemy are, they will not be able to resist the attack launched by our brave soldiers."

After I said these words that gave me goose bumps, I saw that sheroff seemed to be very helpful and nodded his head. He then said, "Comrade oshanina, I have heard many people mention you on different occasions, saying that you are a very excellent commander. According to my observation, I think their evaluation of you is very impressive. I will continue to stay with you and report the good news to the supreme commander in chief as soon as you take moziri Sheroff's understatement of these words, let me feel Alexander. Although we have an advantage in both military strength and equipment, who can say clearly about the war? What should we do if there is any accident after the full-scale attack and our attack is frustrated? However, seeing the expectation in shirov's eyes, I could only harden my head and say, "don't worry, comrade Deputy people's commissar, in the face of our attack, moziri's defenders can't hold on. It's only a matter of time before we can liberate this city enslaved by the Communist aggressors. " After listening to my statement, sherov asked with great interest, "Comrade oshanina, how long will it take to liberate this besieged city?" I turned to bezikov and wanted to get the answer from him. Bzikov, seeing me staring at him, secretly held out two fingers. When I saw the number he had compared, I was stunned and instinctively widened my eyes. But when he saw my reaction, he nodded slightly, indicating that the number he said was correct. I was looking over at sharov and said in a firm tone, "Comrade Deputy people's commissar, our officers and men of the sixth group army of the close guard are sure to win moziri in 20 hours!" As for my reply, sharov nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Comrade oshanina, since you are so confident, I will immediately report the good news to the supreme commander."
