Chapter 1085 The Truth (Part 2)

  With Sergey's guidance, Kester quickly found the code book and list hidden in the filing cabinet in the ruins of the post office. To be on the safe side, after getting the item, Kester deliberately opened it and checked it. After confirming that it was correct, he returned to the headquarters and reported to Sokov.

   Sokov picked up the code book and flipped through it. There were some incomprehensible numbers, so he called a communications staff officer and ordered him to give the code book to Zhukov, and then began to look through the list of lurkers.

  The list of lurkers is written on three sheets of paper. Sokov briefly counted, there are 72 people in total, and behind each name is the place where they live and the occupation they are engaged in.

  Sokov saw that Avdeyev's name was marked with a soap factory. Besides him, there were two other people. One is the deputy factory director who has been killed, and the other is the head of the production department. No wonder Sergey could find him so easily, his detailed address is on the relationship list.

  The name of the old man Sergey is also on it, followed by the telegraph operator of the post office.

   Next, the names of the two arrested storekeepers.

  When Sokov saw that a sergeant in the guard battalion of his division was also on the list, he immediately understood why the Germans wanted to impersonate Sergei. Because they knew that they had a close relationship with Sergei through this insider, and guessed that such an important operation as rescue Zhukov would definitely send this confidant.

"Comrade Commander, what's the matter with this Lieutenant Bohr?" Witkov waited for Sokov to order someone to arrest the sergeant, pointed to the name at the top of the list, and asked in surprise: "Is it possible that he is lurking in the city?" Are there any Germans among the enemies here?"

  Other people’s names are followed by addresses and occupations, but this Lieutenant Ball has only one name, and there are no notes behind it. Sokov could only hope to open the gap from Sergey, so he ordered: "Go and bring Sergey!"

After Sergei arrived, Sokov said, "According to what you have done, it is not too much to shoot you immediately. But I intend to give you a chance to make a contribution. Whether you can survive depends on how you do it." Cooperate."

  After Sergey was caught, although he readily admitted that he was a spy sent by the Germans to the city, he avoided talking about important things. Today I decided to take a risk and hand over the list of lurkers I hid to see if I could have a chance of survival. Hearing what Sokov said at this moment, he immediately realized that his choice was correct. He nodded vigorously and said, "Comrade commander, if you want to know anything, just ask. As long as I know, I will answer truthfully." .”

   "Who is Lieutenant Pohl?" Sokov asked, "Is he German?"

   "Yes, he is German, but he speaks Russian very well." Sergey said: "If he didn't say that he is an authentic German, I thought he was Russian."

   "Why doesn't he have an address?"

"Comrade Commander," Sergey said honestly, "This lieutenant Boer usually wears a uniform of an army captain. Many places in the village are military restricted areas, and I can't get in at all. At this time, Lieutenant Ball stepped in. He pretended to be passing by, borrowed fire from the sentinel standing guard at the door, and then borrowed fire from the other party's mouth while chatting. It’s a cliché. This is how he inquired about the news about General Zhukov’s coming to Luhansk.”

   After figuring out how the enemy discovered Zhukov's whereabouts, Sokov nodded slightly, and then asked: "Then where can we find him?"

   "I don't know." Sergey shook his head and said, "It's usually he who comes to me, but he never tells me where he lives."

  After listening to Sergey’s explanation, Sokov finally understood why every lurker had an address behind it, but this mysterious Lieutenant Boer didn’t. He always came to Sergey on his own initiative.

   "What does he look like?" Sokov asked.

"Comrade Commander, he's about the same height as you, with a square face and a clean shaven face." Sergey tried hard to think about the characteristics of Lieutenant Bohr, but found that he didn't seem to have impressed him deeply. Impression: "Every time he appears, he wears a khaki short fur coat and a cotton military cap..."

   "It's hard to find like this." Hearing Sergey say this, Vitkov began to mutter: "At least a few thousand such people can be found here in Luhansk."

  Sokov also felt that Sergey’s appearance was too general. If he didn’t draw a puzzle, finding such a person would be like finding a needle in a haystack. But he still asked with luck: "Does he have other characteristics?"

Sergey frowned and meditated. After a long time, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and he said excitedly: "I remembered. When he walks, he likes to beat his back with his left hand while walking. According to my knowledge Analysis, his back must have been injured."

   This is a very interesting feature, even if he walks among a group of people who look similar to him, as long as he beats his back with his left hand while walking, he will still be very eye-catching. Thinking of this, Sokov made a note of this in his heart. He felt that the other party's habitual action might expose him soon.

   After someone took Sergey away, Sokov has figured out the truth of the whole thing. The German lieutenant Bohr, who was lurking in the city, found that Zhukov had appeared in the city, and immediately asked Sergey to send a report to his superiors, asking them to send paratroopers to carry out a sneak attack. At the same time, the commander provided enough Soviet uniforms for the paratroopers who sneaked into the city at the post office in the north of the city. Moreover, after the first wave of sneak attack failed, they used the information provided by the insiders in the guard battalion of the Guards Division to pretend to be Seryozha and tried to rush into the hotel where Zhukov was. If they hadn't made arrangements in advance, they might have really Big mistake.

   "Comrade Commander," Vitkov asked Sokov: "We don't know much about Lieutenant Pohl. How can we catch him?"

"Chief of Staff, immediately issue orders to the divisions." After tapping the table with his fingers for a while, Sukov suddenly thought of a good way, and quickly told Witkov: "Order all lieutenant officers to wait for the next step from now on." No one is allowed to go out in their respective defense zones. If anyone violates the law, the patrol team has the right to arrest them on the spot.”

   "Comrade Commander, why is this?" Witkov asked puzzled.

  Sokov smiled lightly and replied: "Comrade Chief of Staff, don't you understand? If we lock up all the lieutenant officers in the camp, then the lieutenant officers who appear on the street..."

Witkov is also a smart man. Hearing what Sokov said, he suddenly understood: "I understand. If we lock all the lieutenant officers in their respective camps, if there are still lieutenants wandering around on the street Officer, it shows that he is a German in disguise."

Sokov gave Witkov a thumbs up, smiled and said: "You are right, Comrade Chief of Staff. Only by using this special method can we catch this Bohr in the shortest possible time." Lieutenant."
