I held my binoculars and stared at the tent where Vaskov entered, holding my breath, praying in my heart that he would complete the task smoothly.

Not much effort, the tent curtain opened, and three soldiers got out of it. Seeing the curtain that was hanging down again and still slightly swinging, my heart touched my throat: Hell, the soldiers have come out, why isn't Vaskov coming out yet? Did something happen to him?

When he was worried, the curtain was pulled aside, and Vaskov's familiar figure emerged from the tent. Seeing his safe appearance, I breathed a long sigh of relief.

Then the curtains of the nearby tents were lifted one after another, and the soldiers got out of them one after another. Seeing how happy they were, I knew that they had cleaned up the enemies in the tent.

Seeing Burda also coming out of the tent, I was about to stand up from behind the bushes where I was hiding. As soon as I was about to lift up, I heard someone next to me excitedly say: "Brothers, the company commander has finished their work. It's so beautiful!"

I turned my head and saw that it was a second lieutenant who was also the platoon leader. Hearing what he said, I couldn't help being happy, but no, Burda, Vaskov and their actions were so swift, they killed a company in the Dongfang Camp in just a few minutes.

I stretched out my hand and patted the second lieutenant's shoulder and said, "Okay, Comrade Ensign, don't be emotional, whoever called you, come with me to the captain and the others."

The second lieutenant who was slapped on the shoulder blushed and smiled embarrassedly, then stood up, leaned sideways and yelled backwards in a low voice: "Brothers, don't lie on your stomach, all stand up and move forward!"

The soldiers from the guard platoon and I came to the tent and immediately smelled the strong smell of blood in the air. Burda had just arranged the soldiers to act as guards in several directions, and when he saw my arrival, he immediately came to my side. There was uncontrollable joy on his face. Raised his hand to salute me and reported: "Comrade Commander, all the enemies in the camp have been solved. There are 110 people in total, and none of them have slipped through the net."

I returned a gift to him and praised him with a smile: "Good job, Comrade Captain, good job!"

Then I turned my gaze to Vaskov standing behind him. Looking at the blood on my face, I asked with concern: "Lieutenant Vaskov. Are you injured?"

Vaskov raised his arm, wiped his face with his sleeve, and said with a smile: "No, I'm all blood from the enemy." After speaking, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and picked up the one hanging on his waist. Unscrew the lid and pour the kettle on the handkerchief. Use the soaked handkerchief to wipe the blood on the face.

Captain Burda asked me for instructions: "Comrade Commander, what shall we do next?"

I looked up at the starry sky, and felt that it was boring to stay here. It was better to return to our army station to stabilize earlier, and told him: "Let the soldiers bring the enemy's weapons and ammunition, let's withdraw!"

"Yes!" Burda agreed, and then conveyed my order down to the soldiers. When they were carrying ammunition nervously, there was a sudden rush of footsteps from a distance. We followed the prestige, and it turned out that a soldier was running towards us. "It's the scout I sent out." Vaskov said in my ear, and then greeted him.

The soldier ran to Vaskov to stop, and whispered a few words to him. I found that Vaskov listened to the soldier, first for a moment, then his face changed drastically, and then led the soldier towards me.

Captain Burda saw them coming and asked first: "What's the matter? Comrade Lieutenant."

"Comrade Captain, the scout has important information and must report it to the division commander."

"What's the matter? Lieutenant Vaskov." I was afraid that Burda would waste time by asking questions, so I asked Vaskov directly.

Vaskov walked in front of me and said in a low voice: "The scout reported that there are four to five hundred prisoners of our army in the woods one kilometer north of here."

Prisoners of our army? ! Hearing this news, I was also taken aback, and quickly asked the scout: "Comrade soldier, are you sure you have seen it clearly. The one who is staying there is indeed a prisoner of war of our army?"

"Yes, comrade commander." The scout replied very positively: "I quietly approached to a place only fifty or sixty meters away from them. After careful observation, it is definitely a prisoner of war in our army. You can't get it wrong."

"Comrade commander, what should we do?" When Burda heard that there were hundreds of prisoners of our army nearby, he became a little anxious, and asked repeatedly: "Go and rescue them?"

Instead of answering Burda's words immediately, I continued to ask the scout: "How many soldiers guarding the prisoners of war?"

"Twelve people, exactly one squad." The scout said in a positive tone: "The guards are not Germans, they are all soldiers from the Dongfang Battalion."

"What shall we do, comrade commander." Seeing that I did not respond to him, Burda couldn't help repeating the question again.

"What else can I do? Of course it is to rescue them!" I immediately told him: "Comrade Captain, gather the troops and set off immediately."

"Yes!" Burda replied loudly, and then began to give orders to the soldiers and arrange the starting order of the team.

When the team was gathering noisily, Vaskov called two soldiers and got into a nearby tent with him. His move made me stunned. The weapons and ammunition in the tent were all moved out just now. What else did he go in?

The answer was quickly revealed. When Vaskov and the two soldiers came out of the tent, they both carried a set of German uniforms.

Seeing Vaskov taking out the German military uniforms from the tent, Burda showed a displeased expression on his face, and said, "I said, Comrade Lieutenant, we are preparing to set out to rescue our comrades in arms, and you do What's the matter? I didn't call my soldiers to gather, but went to the tent and took out a few sets of German uniforms. What's the use of this thing? Can I change it for bread?"

As soon as Burda's voice fell, there was a burst of laughter from the newly assembled team.

I saw Vaskov’s face flushed red, and I quickly relieved him: "Okay, Comrade Captain. After the troops are assembled, we will set off immediately. As for Lieutenant Vaskov to get something, there must be his reason, so you don’t have to. Do more."

Seeing that I was helping Vaskov to speak, Burda waved to the troops and said loudly: "All of them, listen to my command. Turn right and run!"

At the end were me and Vaskov, and two dejected soldiers with German uniforms in their hands.

When the team was five hundred meters away from the place where the prisoners of war were held, they spread out, with rows as units, one row on the left. The third row is on the right and the second row is centered. Approaching the target quietly from three directions.

But I stopped within a hundred meters and carefully observed the whole picture of the place where the prisoners of war were held. In this forest for prisoners of war, there are no walls or barbed wire around, only a few guards holding guns guarding the surroundings, but hundreds of ragged Soviet soldiers are sitting on the ground honestly, no one is there. If you dare to get up and walk around, no one should whisper to each other. Even coughing is to cover your mouth with your hands, and try to lower your voice so as not to startle the guards. Invite no accidents.

I hid behind the low bushes and carefully observed the north, west, and east sides. There were only two mobile guards on each side, and we were in the south. But there are six guards, they are huddled together, there is a machine gun, and it seems a bit difficult to kill them all without firing as before.

Burda quietly came to my side and said in a low voice: "Comrade Commander, you see so many enemies are gathered together. It is impossible to kill them all without firing a shot. Let's shoot, just a few. Enemies, as long as the gun is fired, they will be finished immediately."

"No, you can't shoot." I replied categorically, "Comrade Captain, this place must be not far from the German station, otherwise their guards can't be so relaxed. As long as the gunfire, it will kill nearby Germans. Bring it here, don't make the prisoners of war not rescued, we also became prisoners."

"But, if you don't shoot, what about the crowded enemies? Know that they still have a machine gun in their hands. Once they spot us and shoot, it will inevitably cause us heavy casualties."

"Comrade company commander," before I could answer, Vaskov had already whispered to Burda: "These enemies will be dealt with by our platoon. You only need to let the soldiers in the first and third platoons sneak around to the other side. On three sides, after we have resolved the enemy here, it will not be too late for them to do anything."

"Comrade Lieutenant, do you have a way?" Burda looked at Vaskov with distrust.

"Comrade Captain," I have unconditional trust in Vaskov. Since he said that he can solve the enemies in front of him, he will be able to succeed. So I told Burda: "According to Comrade Vaskov, let a row And the third row went around to the other three first. He is an experienced veteran. He said that if he can solve the enemy in front of us, he will definitely be solved. I trust him completely.” When I said the last sentence, I watched. He glanced at Vaskov and cast a trusting look at him.

But Vaskov didn't even look at me, and straightly took off his military uniforms with the other two soldiers. But when they saw the three of them put on German uniforms, not only I, but even Burda also understood that they were planning to impersonate officers and soldiers of the Eastern Battalion and approach the guards. At this time, I don't need to order anymore, Burda has sent people to two platoons to convey his orders.

After a few more minutes, after Vaskov and their clothes were changed, the soldiers in the first and third platoons also moved in place and signaled us that they were ready. Then Vaskov stood up and took two of them. The soldier walked towards the guards.

When they were still forty or fifty meters away from the sentry, they were spotted by the sentry. A sentry shouted at them: "Stop! Who are you?" The shouting was in Russian. It seemed that they were the puppet army of Dongfang Camp. .

"You are blind, can you not see clearly?" Vaskov, dressed in the uniform of a German lieutenant, put on the style of a deputy officer and yelled at the other party: "We are here to deliver orders from the regiment."

Originally when the sentry was calling, the machine gun was turned to face Vaskov's machine gunner. When he saw his companion in German uniform, he relaxed his guard and moved his hand from the trigger.

Vaskov walked to a place five or six meters away from the sentries and stopped, pointing at them and saying loudly, "You, you, you, and you, come here." The sentries were quite obedient. , Came out of the bunker properly, and lined up in a neat row in front of Vaskov.

Seeing that the sentinels to the south were drawn away, the soldiers ambushing in the other three directions immediately took action and used daggers to kill all the sentries who were alone.

Seeing that the other three sentries were killed, Vaskov stepped back quickly, took the submachine gun in his hand, pointed at the sentries, and sternly shouted: "Don't move, raise your hands, you are captured!"

Facing the three black hole submachine guns, the six soldiers were dumbfounded. After a moment, one turned around and wanted to run towards the machine gun. As soon as Vaskov raised his hand, a throwing knife pierced the soldier's vest. The soldier leaned back, shook his body, and fell to the ground. The remaining five soldiers raised their hands obediently when their companions were killed.

Seeing that the situation was under control, I rushed up with Burda and the soldiers from the second platoon.

When we appeared in front of the captured Soviet army from four directions at the same time, they hadn't figured out what was going on, and they sat on the ground dumbly without looking, looking at us with blank eyes.

I watched these soldiers stunned, and suddenly came out with no anger. I went up to grab a soldier’s clothes and tried to pull him up. At the same time, I shouted to the others: "Comrades, we are here to help. Yours. From now on, you are free."

"What are you doing in a daze? Get up quickly and follow us. You are free." The rest of them shouted with me.

Hearing our shouts, these captured soldiers realized that they had been rescued. They immediately got up from the ground excitedly, rushed to the soldiers of the guard company, and cried bitterly while hugging them.

I saw that the situation was in danger of getting out of control, UU reading www.uukanshu.com immediately told Burda: "Comrade Captain, let the soldiers of the guard company take them away immediately. Don’t stay here all the time. If the Germans find out, it will be troublesome. ." Burda agreed and faithfully relayed my order to the troops.

Soon, with the help of the soldiers of the guard company, the prisoners of war began to transfer.

As soon as the prisoners of war acted, I understood why there were only a dozen soldiers guarding them. These soldiers were hungry for not knowing how long they had been hungry. Even if they were not being guarded, they would not be able to run far. .

I guess at the marching speed of the prisoners of war, if nothing else, in three hours, we can reach the village of Piatnica through the swamp, and then we can put them on the truck to speed up the overall marching speed.

Unexpectedly, the plan could not keep up with the change. Seeing that the prisoners of war almost all left, I did not expect that one of the soldiers who fell in the end actually picked up the light machine gun on the ground and pulled the trigger at the pseudo army prisoners. The gun came suddenly. The sound sounded like a thunderbolt in the silent night.
