Chapter 1663 Aftermath

  The engineer team that was clearing mines was actually an infiltrated German reconnaissance team that attacked a Soviet engineer team not long ago. The engineering soldiers were already weak in combat effectiveness, and they were caught off guard. They were wiped out in less than three minutes, and their equipment was also seized by the German army.

The German officer who led the team was very smart. He felt that if he went deep into the Soviet defense zone to spy on intelligence, he might be exposed. Therefore, he chose an abandoned railway crossing, and planned to intercept the staff officers or signal soldiers who were transmitting information here, and seize the weapons they carried. document.

  As soon as they arrived at the location, a soldier in charge of observation told the officer that a convoy of two jeeps and two trucks was coming towards the railway crossing.

As soon as the officer heard this, he immediately realized that there might be big fish he was interested in in this convoy, so he ordered people to use the equipment of engineers to pretend to clear mines on the road ahead; When the convoy was parked next to the road squad room, bomb them all alone.

Seeing the explosion of the bomb placed in the road squad room at this moment, the German officer and his soldiers threw away the metal detectors in their hands, rushed to a distance of 20 to 30 meters from the convoy with submachine guns, and lined up. Shoot at the soldiers who were blown dizzy.

   Several soldiers who were close to them burst out with blood mist, and fell down convulsively as if they were electrocuted. And some soldiers who were far away fell down on the spot in a panic, or hid behind the vehicle, and fought back at the German army not far away.

  The staff officer turned his head and glanced at Sokov lying on the rails, and found that he was lying where he would not be injured by stray bullets, so he organized the remaining soldiers to fight back.

  If an ordinary Soviet army is attacked by a German reconnaissance team, the entire army may be wiped out. But now they are fighting against Sokov’s guards. The commanders and fighters are all equipped with assault rifles. The firepower is powerful, but beyond a certain distance, the hit rate will be greatly reduced. In the confrontation between the two sides, they will soon be at a disadvantage.

   In less than five minutes, the soldiers of the German reconnaissance team fell into a pool of blood.

  Seeing that all the German troops fell to the ground, the staff officer shouted loudly: "Stop shooting, stop shooting!"

   Then he didn't hear his own voice, and he realized that in the explosion just now, his ears were shaken and deaf. He could only stand up straight, holding a pistol and walking cautiously towards the fallen German soldiers in the distance.

  When the soldiers saw the staff officer coming forward, they immediately understood what he meant, and they also came out of their hiding places, holding weapons, and walked carefully towards the German army who fell on the ground.

   Fortunately, the dying struggle that everyone was worried about did not appear. Eight German soldiers using Bobosha submachine guns were no match for more than 30 assault rifles. In addition, they were all standing in the open area without cover, facing the assault rifles with high shooting accuracy, which was simply the best target, so all the soldiers died under the random guns.

The staff officer carefully inspected the bodies of each German soldier and found that they were all dead, but he was still worried, so he called the guard platoon leader and said to him: "Comrade platoon leader, take someone to check their identities carefully, and see if they are dead." What is the origin."

  The platoon leader agreed, and led the soldiers to search the pockets of the corpse to see if there were any documents that could prove their identity. The staff officer led a squad of soldiers and ran towards Sokov who was lying on the distant railroad tracks.

  Besides, Sokov, who was lying on the railroad track, only felt that the sky was constantly rotating in front of his eyes, and the scenery became more and more blurred. At this moment, he saw a blurry face approaching and reaching out to him, as if trying to harm him. Sokov, who was on the verge of coma, accumulated the remaining strength of his body with tenacious will, and suddenly grasped the pistol at his waist with his bleeding palm.

   Before he could draw out his gun, his hand was already held down by the opponent. Sokov was not willing to be caught without a fight, he struggled desperately, trying to pull out his pistol and shoot at the opponent. But the other party's hand was like iron pliers, tightly grasping his hand, and shouting loudly in his ear.

  The explosion caused a lot of damage to Sokov, making him feel dizzy and tinnitus, and his hearing has not yet fully recovered. But compared to the state of deafness just after the explosion, it is much better at this moment. He vaguely heard the other party announce his name, which was the staff officer accompanying him, so he stopped struggling and let go of his grip on the holster.

   But as his mind relaxed, Sokov completely fainted. Seeing that Sokov had fainted, the staff officer quickly turned around and shouted to the radio operator standing aside: "Is the radio still working?"

   The radio operator quickly reported: "During the explosion just now, it was damaged by several flying stones."

"Come a few people, and carry Comrade Commander into the car." Seeing that the radio station could not get in touch with the headquarters, the staff officer couldn't help becoming anxious, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers who were still standing around, "We must send the Commander to the field hospital as soon as possible. "

   Seeing Sokov being carried into the truck compartment by several soldiers, the staff officer quickly ordered the driver: "Turn around and go back to the headquarters."

   When the guard platoon leader saw the last car turning around, he quickly ran over and asked the staff officer for instructions: "Comrade staff officer, you take the headquarters back to the city, what shall we do?"

   "After finding out the identities of these Germans, bury them separately from our soldiers." The staff officer ordered the guard platoon leader: "After all this is done, you immediately take people back to the headquarters."

  After instructing the guard platoon leader, the staff officer urged the driver: "Drive quickly, return to the city immediately, and send Comrade Commander to the field hospital as soon as possible."

  The driver stepped up the accelerator and sped towards the city. But not long after driving forward, the staff officer sitting beside him became furious: "Comrade driver, what's the matter with you? Is the commander dead?"

   Hearing what the staff officer said, some dumbfounded drivers hurriedly slowed down, carefully bypassing one after another of the craters, so that Sokov, who was lying in the carriage, would feel the bumps.

  When the speed of the car slowed down, the staff officer became impatient again: "Why are you driving so slowly? Don't you know that Comrade Commander is seriously injured and needs to be sent back to the field hospital for emergency treatment?"

  The driver, who was blamed one after another, was dumbfounded. I drove too fast, and you said that I was worried about bumping into the commander in the compartment; I drove slowly, and you said it would delay the rescue of the commander. Or, let you drive this car?

Of course, if the driver has any complaints, he can only think about it in his head and dare not say it at all, otherwise he will definitely be put on by the staff. bumpy.

  The truck soon arrived in the city. After entering the city, due to the better road conditions, the speed was finally increased.

   Soon, the truck arrived at a checkpoint near the headquarters.

  The staff officer knew in his heart that all the commanders and fighters on duty in the checkpoint knew this truck. When they saw him driving over, they would definitely remove the obstacles and pull up the crossbar blocking the road as soon as possible. Then the commanders and fighters at the checkpoint saw the car approaching, not only did not remove the obstacle immediately, but even stepped forward to stop the car.

   Seeing that his car was stopped, the staff officer immediately became angry. Opening the car door, one foot stretched out to step on the pedal, then leaned out half of the body, and shouted loudly at the stopped sergeant: "Sergeant, you are blind, you saw our car coming back, why didn't you Immediately remove the obstacles on the road?"

  Unexpectedly, the sergeant on duty replied neither humble nor overbearing: "This is the headquarters of the group army. No vehicle is allowed to pass without a special pass!"

The staff officer became angry when he heard that, he jumped out of the car and walked quickly to the sergeant's face paint, put the pistol on the other's forehead, and said sharply: "I order you, remove the obstacle immediately, or I will shoot you!" Already!"

   Seeing the sergeant being held to the head with a gun, the soldiers in the checkpoint rushed out, raised their guns in unison, and aimed at the staff officer.

  The soldiers who came back with the staff saw that the opponent raised their guns, so naturally they were not to be outdone, and raised their guns one after another, aiming at the opponent.

  The sergeant still said with a strong attitude: "Comrade lieutenant, please order your subordinates to put away their weapons. This is near the headquarters. If you use knives and guns casually, don't blame us for being rude."

"Comrade staff," the deputy platoon leader who followed the staff led the team back, and found that the soldiers on duty at the checkpoint were all unfamiliar faces, so he leaned into the staff officer's ear and whispered: "There is something wrong, why are the soldiers on the opposite side unfamiliar faces? I don't know any of them."

   After saying this, the deputy platoon leader asked the sergeant who was holding a gun to his head without waiting for the staff officer to speak: "Comrade sergeant, what part do you belong to? Why have I never seen you?"

  Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the sergeant said coldly: "You have no right to know."

   Just as the two sides were on the verge of breaking out, two officers walked out of a house not far away. They were walking outside talking and laughing when they suddenly saw the confrontation between the two sides outside. One of the officers quickly shouted: "Stop! Stop! Put down the guns, my own people, don't let go!"

  The staff officer followed the reputation and found that the person running towards him was actually Lieutenant Samoilov, Sokov's most valued man, and quickly put down the pistol on the sergeant's forehead.

  Samoilov rushed to the middle of the two groups, waved his arms, and shouted at the soldiers behind the staff officer: "Put down, put down the guns! Who told you to point your guns at your friendly troops."

  The soldiers brought back by the staff all knew Samoilov. Seeing his appearance, they immediately realized that there might be a misunderstanding, and lowered their guns.

And the officer who came out of the house with Samoilov also walked over quickly, and he shouted at the soldiers on the other side: "Put down the guns! Guns are used to hit the enemy. It’s not for dealing with your own people.”

  Hearing what the officer said, the soldiers in the checkpoint hurriedly lowered their guns.

  After both sides put down their guns, Samoilov turned his head and asked the staff: "Comrade staff, didn't you **** the commander to the front? Why did you suddenly appear here?"

  Hearing Samoilov's question, the staff officer burst into tears: "Lieutenant Samoilov, on the way to **** Comrade Commander to the front, we were attacked by German bombs..."

  Hearing this, Samoilov grabbed the hem of the staff officer and roared angrily, "Where is Comrade Commander now?"

   "In the car, he was seriously injured..."

   Before the staff officer could finish speaking, Samoilov pushed him aside, turned around and ran towards the carriage. He flipped into the carriage nimbly, and sure enough, he saw Sokov lying in the carriage covered in blood. He quickly grabbed Sokov's hand and shouted desperately: "Comrade Commander, I am Lieutenant Samoilov, wake up, wake up!"

   Shouted twice, seeing that Sokov hadn't moved at all, Samoilov turned over and jumped out of the carriage. He quickly came to the front of the car. Seeing the staff officer standing there stupidly, he couldn't help but get angry for no reason. He raised his leg and kicked the opponent's bone in front of him, causing the staff officer to kneel on one knee immediately.

   Samoilov roared: "Comrade Commander is in urgent need of rescue. What are you doing here? Hurry up and send him to the field hospital."

  The staff officer agreed, and quickly called the soldiers in the guard platoon to remove the roadblocks in front. The officer on the opposite side also realized that something was wrong, and felt like ordering his subordinates: "Quickly, quickly remove the roadblock and let the trucks of the friendly army pass by."

Before the roadblock ahead was cleared, Samoilov said to the staff officer: "We are changing defenses with the 69th Army. You should rush to the headquarters immediately. Before the chief of staff and the military commissar have left, quickly send the commander comrade Report the injury to both of them. Understand?"

   "Understood!" The staff officer agreed, and ran towards the church with a soldier.

   Samoilov got into the cab of the truck, closed the door with a bang, and shouted to the driver: "Rush to the field hospital immediately. I hope the military doctors with the best skills have not left yet."

   Besides, when the staff ran to the church with the soldiers, they happened to meet Sameko and Lunev who were walking outside. Sameko recognized at a glance that the panting officer in front of him was the staff officer who escorted Sokov to the front line, so he asked curiously: "Comrade staff officer, didn't you **** the commander to the front line? Why did you appear here?" Woolen cloth?"

The staff officer raised his hand to salute Sameko and Lunev, and said breathlessly: "Reporting to the Chief of Staff and Comrade Military Commissar, we were attacked by the German sabotage team on the way to the front. Bomb attack, Comrade Commander was seriously injured..."

   Before he finished speaking, Sameko and Lunev stretched out a hand at the same time, grabbed his skirt, and asked nervously, "Where is Comrade Commander now?"

   "Field hospital!" The staff officer replied anxiously: "We just met Lieutenant Samoilov, who personally escorted the commander to the field hospital."

"Comrade Military Commissar," Sameko let go of his hand, turned to Lunev and said, "Please call the director and political commissar of the field hospital and tell him that Comrade Commander is seriously injured and ask him to arrange a competent military doctor." Getting ready for surgery."

The reason why Sameko asked Lunev to call was because he was usually responsible for military work, and because of his position, Lunev was very familiar with the director and political commissar of the field hospital. It couldn't be more appropriate to make this call.
