Chapter 1591

Trekov poured a cup of tea and handed it to crook. He said with a kind face, "don't worry, comrade crook. Let's have a glass of water."

Crook said thank you to trikov, and then drank all the tea in his cup. Then he began to tell the story of what happened in the city: "yesterday morning, we received a call from the rebel headquarters, informing us to collect weapons and ammunition in moresin park on the West Bank of the Huasha river. In the whole Warsaw City, the equipment of our ryudov guards is the worst. There are only more than 200 rifles and a dozen pistols for more than 500 soldiers, and no machine guns.

After receiving the call, Sergeant sergeyak was very happy, because we all know that as long as we can get the supplement of weapons and equipment, the combat effectiveness of the troops can be greatly improved. The battalion commander and I, with a company of soldiers, rushed to moresin Park, ready to go there to receive equipment.

But as soon as we got close to the ruins of moresin Park, we were surrounded and disarmed by the krayov army. The battalion commander and I, as well as all the officers, were escorted to a nearby library, where ordinary soldiers were taken elsewhere.

When we came to the library, I found that there were hundreds of people in custody. Judging from the signs they were wearing, they were all commanders of various troops. I found an acquaintance who was also locked up here to inquire, and learned that they, like us, also received the notice to get the equipment, took the troops to the park and were disarmed. "

"Wait a minute, comrade crook." When trekov heard this, he couldn't help interrupting crook's words: "I want to ask, which troops are these commanders from?"

Crook took a look at trekov and said, "which army can it be? Of course, they are all commanders of the ryudov army or the ryudov guards. "

"I don't understand. Why are they all commanders of the ryudov army?" "Is there no officer in the krayov army?" trekov asked

"No, comrade general, absolutely no officer of the krayov army." Kruck shook his head and said with certainty: "although the signs worn by our rebel army are very confusing, it can be seen at a glance whether they belong to the krayov army or the lyudov army."

After he said this, he saw that trakov didn't ask any more questions, so he continued: "when it was getting dark, a guard told me the bad news that the krayov army was going to kill Jews in Walla, west of the city. After learning the news, it immediately caused the panic of the commanders who were held in the library. "

At this time, trikov interrupted again and asked, "don't you all belong to the rebel army? Why do you fight each other? Maybe it's a rumor spread by the Germans, just to stir up the conflict between your two armies. "

"General komorovsky, the leader of Warsaw Uprising, is loyal to mikolechik, the leader of the government in exile. He thinks that only the Polish government in exile in London is the government representing the Polish people, and the new government in Lublin is just a puppet supported by Russia." "He hoped that the campaign against the Communist Party would be led by the poles, not the Russians," krucker said with disdain. For him, the Russians will be a new oppressor, and the troops and civilians who follow them should be eliminated without mercy.

As you may not know, komorovsky got the news of Hitler's attempted assassination on July 21 that the Germans had collapsed and would withdraw from Warsaw in a short time, so he drew up an uprising plan: concentrate troops to capture several key government buildings in Warsaw, and announce that the Polish government in exile will resume its power 12 hours before the Russians enter Warsaw. In order to prevent the German army from withdrawing to the west, they even left some important transportation hubs for the Germans, including several very important bridges on the visva river. "

After crook's words, the headquarters fell into a silence, and all the people were trying to digest what he said, while I kept thinking about who mikolechik was? It seems that I have never heard of the name.

Finally, I was the first to break the silence: "Comrade crook, can you tell us how you got out of danger?"

Crook looked at me, looked at my epaulets clearly, nodded, and then told the story of what happened in the city: "in the middle of the night, we heard the faint sound of guns coming from the south, and the commanders who were locked in the library suddenly got excited, saying that the Soviet army must have launched an attack from the south.

But just as we were happy, the krayov army showed up. After the armed soldiers entered the room, they randomly picked out ten people from the crowd, tied them up with ropes and took them away. In a short time, we heard a burst of gunfire outside. At this time, we all knew that the krayov army was going to shoot us all. When the soldiers reappeared, the commanders who didn't want to wait to die swarmed on them, fought with them and tried to seize the guns in their hands.

The frantic krayov soldiers stood at the door, shooting at the commander of the ryudov army in the room with submachine guns. Seeing that the situation was not good, I quickly broke the window with a chair, jumped down from the second floor, and escaped from the place under the cover of the ruins.

When I fled to the south of the city where I made an appointment with the regular army, I found that they were being attacked by the German army. Fortunately, I knew the terrain very well. I took a small path to the river visva and got on a wooden boat. I met the commander of the third division of the Polish army, Colonel vareshak. I was able to escape successfully. "

After he told his story, vareshak quickly added: "yes, comrades commander, the wooden boat that crook got on in a hurry happened to be my boat. I learned from him what happened in Warsaw and brought him here. "

"Comrade Colonel, you have done a good job." As soon as vareshak's voice was over, rokosovsky nodded his head and said, "I think Comrade crook must be tired and hungry. Take him to eat first, and then find a place to have a good rest."

Vareshak and crook raised their hands to salute us, then turned and walked out of the headquarters.

As soon as they left, rokosovsky looked around and asked, "comrades commander, the situation in Warsaw is more serious than we thought. Facing the siege of the superior German army, the rebel army in the city not only did not fight against the enemy with all their strength, but on the contrary, they were killing each other. Even if the German did not attack, it would not be long before their strength would be exhausted in this kind of internal strife. "

Belinger, who was already in a state of complete absence, asked in a flustered manner after rokosovsky had finished saying, "Comrade marshal, what should we do now?"

"It needs to be reported to Moscow immediately." After making this important decision, rokosovsky said to belinger, "if we want to save Warsaw, it is not enough to rely on the Polish army alone. We still need the assistance of our troops. What do you think, general Bellinger

"That's right, that's right," belinger replied with a rattle of his head. "We have only a few divisions at present. If we want to occupy Warsaw, our strength is still weak. If we can get the support of Soviet comrades, I think it's most appropriate."

When I saw belinger's reaction, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised. I said that belinger today is quite different from last night. The arrogant expression when talking with rokosovsky is gone, but more flattering and flattering; Especially when it comes to the question of whether our army's cooperation is needed, his attitude has made a 180 degree turn. Last night, he didn't even want any help from a division. At this moment, he would like us to send the whole front army to support them.

"Our river crossing equipment is limited now." Thinking that most of the river crossing equipment he provided to the Polish army had been destroyed, trakov said with a bitter look: "it's very difficult to transport infantry and military materials, not to mention technical equipment such as tanks and artillery across the river."

"Don't worry, general trakov." Belinger probably thought that his troops had almost ruined the river crossing equipment provided by trakov. He was a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to pat his chest and promised, "I will immediately transfer the first brigade of captain lyubanski's engineers to build a floating bridge on the visva river."

"It's hard to use a floating bridge." Trekov shook his head and said: "in order to prevent our army from crossing the river, the German army bombed all the bridges on the river. In addition to shelling the visva river continuously, it also sent planes to patrol the air from time to time. Once it was found that our army had signs of building bridges on the river, it carried out dive bombing on the ground."

"General prokopovich's antiaircraft artillery division just arrived in Lublin yesterday." Bellinger said enthusiastically, "after the engineers have built the pontoon on the visva River, I will deploy this antiaircraft artillery division in your defense zone and let them ensure the safety of the pontoon."

Seeing that belinger showed such sincerity, rokosovsky was deeply afraid of what trakov would say. He quickly stood up, took belinger's hand, and said enthusiastically, "general belinger, thank you for your generosity. I believe the friendship between the Soviet and polish armies can stand the test of time."

"Comrade marshal is right." Trakov is also a smart man. Listening to what rokosovsky said, he quickly echoed: "with our joint efforts, we will be able to defeat the most ferocious enemy of mankind, the Communists."

Several of them chatted for a long time. At last, military commissar zawatsky interjected: "comrades, I think we'd better talk about it again some time. The first thing we need to do now is to appease the soldiers who have just withdrawn from the West Bank of the viswa River and let them know that this defeat is only temporary. We must win the final victory."

After being reminded by zawatsky, belinger also felt that it was inappropriate for him to stay in trekov's headquarters, so he got up to say goodbye to us and said to trekov: "general trekov, Polish antiaircraft artillery division and engineering brigade, will arrive at the Bank of the visva River in the shortest time. I hope you can send someone to help them then. "

"Don't worry, general Bellinger." Trikov said with a smile, "we are friendly forces. Even if you don't tell me these little things, I will send someone to help."

When there were only three of us left in the room, trakov restrained his smile, looked at rokosovsky, and said solemnly, "Comrade marshal, the Polish comrades are here just now. Maybe you have something to say? Now there are only three of us here. Can you tell us something about it? "

"Comrade trakov, you are right. I did not say something." After taking a sip of the tea cup in front of him, rokosovsky said, "on the 26th and 27th of last month, China signed an agreement with the Polish national liberation Council, which decided to determine the new eastern border of Poland with the" korsong line "drawn by the allies in 1919. In this agreement, it is stipulated that after our army enters Poland's territory, the supreme power in the belligerent areas shall be in my hands, and the power in the liberated areas shall be vested in the Polish National Liberation Committee, which shall establish a new Polish government and reorganize the Polish army. Comrade Bulganin, military commissar of the front army, is our representative to cooperate with the national liberation Commission of Poland. At the same time, in order to express our utmost sincerity and comfort all sectors of Polish society, on July 27, the Ministry of foreign affairs and people's Commission of the Soviet Union issued a statement, stressing that our army's goal is: "to help the Polish people get rid of the shackles of the German aggressors and rebuild a democratic, independent and strong Poland." The statement also pointed out that Poland is regarded as a sovereign country friendly to China, so we do not intend to set up our own institutions in Poland. All Polish affairs should be decided by the Polish people themselves. " After these words, rokosovsky stood up, straightened his cap and said to us, "to liberate Warsaw, it is unrealistic for us to rely on the Polish army, so we should take positive actions to realize our strategic intention. Comrade trakov, you should try to send people to Warsaw to conduct reconnaissance and find out the distribution of German forces in the city and the truth about the internal strife among the rebel forces. "“ Don't worry, comrade marshal. " Regarding the order given by rokosovsky, trakov nodded his head and replied, "I will immediately contact major monakov who is active behind the enemy lines and ask him to send people into Warsaw as soon as possible." Listening to trakov's mention of monakov's troops landing behind enemy lines, rokosovsky raised his eyebrows and asked, "did they not take part in the Polish Army's march to Warsaw last night?"“ I don't think so, "trekov said, shaking his head." from what I know about monakov, he won't risk anything until he gets new instructions. "“ If so, that would be great. " Rokosovsky finished, reached out to shake hands with us one by one, and finally said, "good luck to you!" Then he strode out of the headquarters.
