Chapter 71: suggestion

Chapter 71 Recommendations

It turns out that an army that is good at using "blitzkrieg" is not necessarily good at dealing with "blitzkrieg".

Because when Major Gavrilov led a group of soldiers into the German front line, they were defeated by a single charge... The German army never expected that an enemy would suddenly come out from behind, and it was still organized. In the dark, they could even tell which were the enemy and which were their own, so they quickly fell into chaos and the Soviet army opened a gap to break out.

Ironically, the vanguard of the breakout was two tanks taken from the German army... They covered the Soviet army from the left and the right to cross the German defense line, and even took them to the Soviet defense line.

In fact, driving to the Soviet defense line is the most important thing, because the Soviet soldiers in the dark thought it was the Germans launching an attack, so they fired a burst of dense bullets without any explanation. To fall under the rain of bullets.

Until the tank crew stretched out a Soviet flag from the turret and illuminated the flag with a flashlight, the gunfire gradually stopped... This flag was prepared before, and it was also the most important task for the tank crew.

On the other side, Colonel Ovic is reporting to Major General Mstislav, commander of the 27th Army.

"Sorry, Comrade General!" Colonel Ovich stood up and said, "We didn't hold the line of defense!"

"It's not just that you didn't hold the line of defense, Ovic!" Major General Mstislav frowned dissatisfiedly: "You also lost nearly half of your subordinates!"

"That's because we stand firm, Comrade General!" Colonel Ovich replied.

"I don't think so!" Major General Mstislav shifted his gaze from a pile of documents to Colonel Ović: "Why is the 333rd regiment surrounded by the enemy? They broke out from Brest Do you have any idea how badly this will affect our troops if you let them fall into the enemy's encirclement again in just one day under your command?"

"They are indeed heroes, Comrade General!" said Colonel Orvich. , but the two regiments on the left and right flanks couldn't do it, which is why the 333rd regiment was surrounded! Then we lost contact with the 333rd regiment. I think, maybe their radio is broken!"

Major General Mstislav had nothing to say when he heard it. He couldn't accuse someone who looked down on death on the battlefield and stood firm.

"Comrade General!" Colonel Orvich continued, "I have an idea, why don't we board up the bunkers to disguise them as log cabins?"

"Masquerading as a wooden house?" Major General Mstislav was somewhat interested in this suggestion.

"Yes!" Colonel Ovich said: "Disguise the bunkers as wooden houses, so that they will be mixed with nearby wooden houses so that the Germans cannot tell them apart!"

Major General Mstislav nodded and praised: "Very constructive idea, Comrade Ovich, we can try it, maybe it can play a role in confusing the enemy!"

"General!" At this time, a signal soldier walked into the headquarters and reported: "One of our troops broke through the enemy's encirclement and fought back! They said it was the 333rd regiment!"

"The 333rd Regiment?" Major General Mstislav couldn't help being surprised.

"The 333rd Regiment?" Colonel Ovich's face turned as white as a piece of paper.

"Yes, the 333rd regiment!" The signalman replied: "They also captured two enemy tanks!"

"Is their commander still alive?" Colonel Ovic asked. "I mean Major Gavrilov, and Commissar Fomin!"

"I don't know, Comrade Colonel!" replied the correspondent.

"Great!" Major General Mstislav stood up from his chair: "Let their commander come to me!"

"Yes, General!"

"General!" Colonel Ovich said, "I'll go see their situation!"

"No, Comrade Ovich!" Major General Mstislav said, "Don't you want to hear what happened to the 333rd regiment?"

"I can ask myself!" said Colonel Ovich.

"Couldn't the commander say something more detailed?" Major General Mstislav looked at Colonel Ovic with some doubts: "Also, what's the name of their commander?"

"Major Gavrilov!" Colonel Ovic could only reply helplessly: "There is also Commissar Fumin!"

"Very good!" said Major General Mstislav. "You'll see them soon, if they're among the survivors. They're surprising, aren't they? To break out under the circumstances, Two tanks were also captured, what a miracle!"

"Yes, General! This...is very unexpected!" Colonel Ovich was a little distracted.

Ten minutes seemed like ten seconds to Colonel Ovich... In fact, Colonel Ovich hoped that this time would never come, or that it wasn't Gavrilov and Fomin who walked into the headquarters.

But soon he was disappointed.

It was Major Gavrilov and Commissar Fomin who lifted the black cloth and walked into the headquarters, although they were covered in blood and Major Gavrilov had a new wound...the left hand was bandaged.

"Welcome back, heroes!" Colonel Ovich greeted him enthusiastically.

"Comrade Colonel?" Political Commissar Fuming was a little surprised: "I thought...the division was occupied!"

Actually, what Political Commissar Fumin wanted to say was that he thought Colonel Ovich had died.

"Yes!" Colonel Orvich replied: "The Germans attacked fiercely. They did occupy the division headquarters. We withdrew back in the battle!"

This made Commissar Fumin a little dissatisfied, because they had always received orders to "stand firm and not take a step back." Even though he knew that the 333rd regiment was about to be surrounded, Colonel Ovich retreated...although he sent his Whitewashed as "withdrawn in combat".

"Welcome!" Major General Mstislav shook hands with Major Gavrilov and Commissar Fomin respectively.

"You definitely don't believe it!" Major General Mstislav said, "Just now, we were still discussing the matter of your being surrounded. He admired your spirit of preferring death to retreat on the battlefield..."

"At the same time, I'm sorry!" Colonel Ovich interjected: "Because the two wings failed to hold and you were surrounded by the enemy!"

"If it's not an emergency situation!" Major General Mstislav said, "I'd like to hear from you about the situation of the breakout. But I think we should listen to Colonel Ović's suggestion of 'camouflage in a log cabin' first..."

"The wooden house is camouflaged?" Major Gavrilov raised his eyebrows.

"Colonel Ovich's suggestion?" Political Commissar Fomin turned his attention to the sweaty Colonel Ovich.

"Is there any problem?" Only Major General Mstislav didn't know what happened.
