Chapter 2215: false alarm

  Chapter 2215 A false alarm

  Asiya opened the door and broke in, just in time to see Yakov lying on the bed drawing blood, and quickly called out: "Yasha."

Yakov heard someone calling him, looked up, and unexpectedly found that it was Asiya, he couldn't help asking in surprise: "Asiya, why is it you?" After he glanced behind Asiya, he tentatively He asked, "Misha didn't come with you, did he?"

"He still has important work and he can't get away, so let me visit you on his behalf." After Assia finished speaking, she asked the nurse who had just finished drawing blood: "Comrade nurse, where is the doctor?" ?”

  The nurse pointed to a small closed door next to her and said, "The doctor is inside."

   After thanking the nurse, Asiya came to the small door, raised her hand and knocked twice. Before there was an answer from inside, she opened the door and walked in.

   There was a doctor sitting in the room, who was immersed in writing the case, when he suddenly saw a strange female soldier barging in, he couldn't help asking in surprise, "Girl, who are you, what are you doing in my consulting room?"

"Hello, Comrade Doctor." Assia nodded to the doctor and revealed her identity: "I am Assia, a military doctor at the 48th Army Field Hospital, I would like to ask, the man named Yakov outside General, how is he doing?"

   "Who is he to you?" The doctor asked smartly, "Is it your husband?"

Hearing what the doctor said, Asiya's pretty face blushed slightly, then she shook her head and said, "General Yakov is my husband's best friend. When I heard that he was injured, I immediately sent me to visit here on his behalf. Yakov."

The doctor is also a smart person. Hearing that Asiya represented her husband, she came here to visit the wounded deputy chief of staff of the Front Army, which proved that her husband's identity was not simple, so he tentatively asked: "Military doctor Asiya, I wonder if your husband is...?"

"My husband's name is Sokov, and he is the commander of the 48th Army." Seeing the doctor's delay in introducing Yakov's condition to her, Asiya said impatiently, "Please tell me as soon as possible, Yakov. How is the general's injury, will it be life-threatening?"

  When he learned that Asiya's husband was actually the famous Sokov, the doctor couldn't help being secretly surprised. But after hearing what Assia said next, he said with a smile: "Military doctor Assia, I have the honor to tell you that General Yakov is in very good health, although he suffered some concussion injuries during the shelling." , but it will definitely not be life-threatening, as long as you rest for two days."

"Really?"

"Of course it is true, Doctor Assia." The doctor picked up the case on the table and handed it to Assia: "If you don't believe it, you can read his case. Before you enter this room, I am Write a case for him."

  Athea took the case and examined it carefully. After she read all the content recorded above, the heart hanging in her throat finally returned to her stomach. But just to be on the safe side, she still asked tentatively: "Comrade doctor, are the records in the case completely true?"

   "Of course it is completely true." The doctor nodded and said, "You are also a doctor. Whether the things written in the case are true or not, you will never be able to fool your eyes."

Hearing what the doctor said, Asiya nodded slightly, then put the case in her hand on the table, and thanked him: "Thank you, Comrade Doctor. You know, General Yakov is the best doctor for me and my husband." My friend, when we heard that he was shelled by the German army and was wounded, we were very anxious."

"Military doctor Asia, I can fully understand how you feel." The doctor said reasonably, "If my best friend was injured, I'm afraid I'd be as anxious as you." After finishing speaking, he stood up and continued , "I will go out now and tell General Yakov that he is in very good health and has no problems at all. He just needs to go back to rest for two days and he will be fine."

   After listening to the doctor's report, Yakov also heaved a sigh of relief, and then walked out of the consulting room with the help of Assia.

  Gorbatov, who was guarding the door, saw Yakov coming out, and immediately went forward, and asked with concern: "Comrade Deputy Chief of Staff, are you all right?"

"I'm fine, thank you, General Gorbatov." After expressing his gratitude to Gorbatov, Yakov asked tentatively: "By the way, the commander General Chernyakhovsky is now How is the situation, is the operation over?"

"I'm sorry, Comrade Deputy Chief of Staff." Gorbatov shook his head and said, "I have been guarding here, and I don't know how the operation is going. Comrade Military Commissar," he turned to ask the military commissar beside him, " You came from the operating room, so you should know something."

"Don't look at me staying outside the operating room, but I don't know anything about the progress of the operation." Just after the military commissioner finished speaking, he saw Asiya who was supporting Yakov, and quickly added : "However, this female military doctor has been in the operating room, maybe she can tell you about the progress of General Cherniakhovsky's operation."

"Assia." Hearing what the military commissar said, Yakov turned his head and asked Assia: "You have been in the operating room, and you must know the progress of the operation. Tell me quickly, General Cherniakhovsky How is the injury, is it life-threatening?"

Asiya thought that when she broke into the operating room, she did see someone performing an operation, but she was eager to find Yakov at the time, so she didn't ask who was lying on the operating table to rescue, but some details of the operation , she still noticed. Listening to Yakov's question at this moment, she said slowly: "When I went in, the operation had been going on for three or four hours, and I saw at least a dozen pieces of shrapnel in the tray next to the operating table, basically They're all the size of a thumbnail..."

Before Assia could finish speaking, Yakov interrupted what she said: "Assia, you don't need to talk about these details, you just need to tell me that Cherniakhovsky's situation in the operating room has something to do with it. Not life-threatening?"

"I don't think so." Assia said in an uncertain tone: "When I went in, I saw the doctor was performing an operation, and the nurse next to the station was very calm. According to this situation, there should be no operation. What a problem."

  Through Asiya's description, Yakov knew that Cherniakhovsky's life would not be in danger for the time being, and he felt more at ease.

   "Comrade doctor," Assia turned her head and asked the following doctor, "Can your phone be used to make outside calls?"

"I can't make a call." The doctor shook his head and said, "My phone can only be used inside the hospital. If you want to make an outside call, you can only go to the dean's office, but he should be in the operating room at the moment, so you can go. Can't even make a phone call."

   "Military doctor Assia," Gorbatov who was standing next to him asked tentatively when he heard Assia wanted to make a call, "Where are you going to call?"

   "I want to call my husband." Assia glanced at Yakov beside her, and explained to Gorbatov, "Tell him about Yasha's situation so that he won't worry all the time."

   "It's easy to make a call." Gorbatov said with a smile: "The phone in my headquarters can communicate with the friendly army headquarters. You can go back and call me."

  When Sokov received a call from Asiya, he couldn't wait to ask: "Asiya, how is the situation, Yasha's life will not be in danger, right?"

Before Asya could answer, Yakov grabbed the microphone and said, "Misha, it's me, Yasha! Don't worry, the doctor just gave me a comprehensive examination. I was just killed by the enemy's shelling. Suffered some concussion injuries, it's not a problem at all, just need to rest for two days."

  Knowing that Yakov was fine, Sokov felt at ease immediately. But he thought that Cherniakhovsky was killed in battle in these two days, so he tentatively asked: "By the way, Yasha, I wonder how General Cherniakhovsky's injury is. Is it serious?"

  When Sokov said this, he was prepared in his heart, thinking that maybe Yakov would tell himself directly that General Cherniakhovsky had unfortunately died. But after waiting for a while, I heard Yakov say: "General Cherniakhovsky is still undergoing surgery. I don't know the specific situation. But Asiya once entered the operating room. According to her , The order in the operating room was orderly, and there was no panic, so the operation must have gone relatively smoothly."

   "That's good, that's good." Sokov said to Yakov: "Give the microphone to Asia, I have something to say to her."

   "Misha, it's me." Soon Asiya's voice came from the receiver.

   "Asiya, listen, since Yakov is fine, come back immediately."

   "Okay, I'll go back right away."

  After putting down the phone, Asya said to Yakov, "Yasha, I still have work at the hospital, so I have to leave immediately. Take care of yourself. I will come to see you with Misha when I have time."

"Assia, after you go back, remind Misha." Yakov thought of Sokov based on his own experience. His good friend likes to run to the front line when he has nothing to do. If he encounters a situation similar to today , that would be bad, so he said to Asiya earnestly: "As the commander of the group army, he usually stays in his own headquarters, and don't think about running to the front all day long. If he encounters danger again, I'm afraid You won't be as lucky as last time."

   After Sokov finished talking with Assia, he ordered the director of the Communication Corps to help him connect to the Front Army Command. He wanted to report Yakov's situation to Rokossovsky.

  After the call was connected, Sokov said straight to the point: "Comrade Marshal, my wife Asiya has arrived at the 3rd Army Field Hospital and learned about Yakov's medical examination."

   "How is his injury?" Rokossovsky asked nervously, "Is it not life-threatening?"

   "No, Comrade Marshal. You can rest assured about this." Sokov said: "The doctor in the field hospital conducted a comprehensive examination on Yakov and confirmed that his body is very simple, as long as he rests for two days, he will be fine."

   What Rokossovsky is most worried about is Yakov's safety. Although the opponent is not in his army, if something really happens, someone may be furious and cause many people to suffer. Now that I heard that Yakov is fine, the stone hanging in my heart has completely fallen to the ground.

   Just as he was about to put down the microphone, he suddenly remembered another important matter, and asked quickly, "By the way, how is General Cherniakhovsky's injury? Has the operation been completed? Was it a success or a failure?"

Regarding Rokossovsky's series of questions, Sokov said with a wry smile: "Comrade Marshal, the operation has not been completed yet. However, Asya once entered the operating room once, and she said that everything inside was stable and it did not seem to be stable." As if something happened, General Cherniakhovsky has his own destiny, and the operation will be successful."

"If that's really the case, that's fine." Rokossovsky said with a sigh: "You know, since Cherniakhovsky was shelled, I have received no less than twenty calls. The contents of these calls are all related to Cherniakhovsky. I hope he is safe and sound. If something happens, it may have a negative impact on our battle to liberate East Prussia."

When Sokov said this, he was also uneasy. According to the history he knew, General Cherniakhovsky, who was bombarded by the German army, died of his injuries two days later, so even if the operation can be performed safely today room, it does not mean that he is completely out of danger. But he thought about it again. In real history, when Cherniakhovsky was shelled, there was no one around him to hide him. He could be said to have stood and suffered the shells. But this time, Yakov threw him down, and when he was shelled, he didn't hurt his vitals, only his hands and feet were injured.

   Lunev saw Sokov put down the phone and looked preoccupied, so he asked curiously, "Misha, are you worried about the safety of General Cherniakhovsky?"

"I think it should be." Without waiting for Sokov to speak, Sidolin interjected: "If something happens to General Cherniakhovsky and he can no longer command the troops to fight, it will affect our army. The next attack on East Prussia. You know, our front army has just turned to the west and is preparing to attack Berlin. But if General Cherniakhovsky fails to command the troops, maybe the third front army will not be able to complete the task of the superior At that time, maybe we will order our army to turn around again, but assist the third front army in fighting."

"Don't worry, Comrade Chief of Staff." But regarding Sidolin's worries, Lunev said carelessly: "Don't forget, a similar thing happened at this time last year, and it was not easy to deal with it. Is it all right?"

"Did a similar thing happen last year?" Sidolin was taken aback when he heard it, and then understood what Lunev was talking about, and said quickly: "Comrade Military Commissar, you are talking about last February, when the first Ukrainian side After the commander of the army, General Vatutin, was injured, Marshal Zhukov took over his post, right?"

"That's right, that's what I'm talking about." Lunev nodded his head and said affirmatively: "Even if General Cherniakhovsky was seriously injured and unable to command troops to fight, I believe the Supreme Command would Able to select suitable candidates in time to take over his position."

   "Comrade Military Commissar, who do you think the superiors will send to replace General Cherniakhovsky?"

Lunev glanced at Yakov and said: "According to the gossip I got, last year someone suggested that Misha be the commander of the Third Front Army, but it was rejected because he was too young. If This time General Cherniakhovsky is really unable to command the troops, and I think someone will bring it up again."
