Chapter 104 Special commands When Vanya walked into the battalion command post, he saw four people sitting beside the wooden table in the middle of the room. In addition to the two battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders, there were also two female commanders. "Lieutenant Vanya, you are here." Seeing Vanya enter the room, Sokov quickly stood up, smiled and said to him: "There are two new commanders here, let me introduce you. One is Lieutenant Liuba, commander of the women's anti-aircraft machine gun company, and that one is Comrade Sveta, the instructor." Knowing that the opponent was an anti-aircraft machine gun company and not an infantry company, Vanya immediately realized that he had made a mistake. He hurried forward, shook hands with the two female commanders who stood up, and said politely: "Hello, Commander. Comrades, you are welcome here." "Comrade Lieutenant," Belkin, who was sitting still, looked at Vanya with a half-smile and asked, "Is there anything important that you came to the battalion headquarters in such a hurry?" Vanya smiled awkwardly, and hastily said under cover: "Comrade Deputy Battalion Commander, I just want to come and ask if we need our company to help when setting up the air defense position." "Lieutenant Vanya, since you took the initiative to ask for orders, the task of helping the women's company to set up positions will be handed over to your company." Before Vanya came, Sokov was considering setting up positions for the anti-aircraft machine gun company. Seeing that Vanya took the initiative to ask for the task, who would complete it, he said smoothly, "Now let's go and see the terrain." The crowd came to the open space between the position and the foot of the mountain. Sokov turned his head and asked Liuba: "Comrade Lieutenant, where do you think the air defense position should be placed?" Liuba and Sveta walked a dozen steps forward, then stopped and began to survey the terrain. The two first looked at the place where the female soldiers lived for a while, then turned to look at the high ground not far away. After some visual inspection, the two whispered for a while, and finally Liuba reported to Sokov: "Comrade Battalion Commander, let's build the air defense position here. The girls live only a hundred miles away from here." Domi, upon hearing the combat alarm, they will be able to enter the combat position within two minutes at most..." Belgin saw that this place had a wide view and was the best place to establish an air defense position. He thought that Sokov would definitely agree without hesitation, but after waiting for a while, he didn't hear any movement. He turned his head and saw When Sokov stared at the sky in a daze, he quickly shook Sokov a few times and said in a low voice, "Comrade Battalion Commander, I think this position is ideal. What's your opinion?"
Sokov stared at the sky in a daze, not because he was dissatisfied with the location of the air defense position. You must know that he proposed this place to Liuba and the others on his own initiative. The reason why he looked absent-minded was because he was thinking about how to arrange the air defense position. Feeling that Belkin was shaking him, he quickly looked away from the gray sky, looked at Liuba and asked, "Comrade Lieutenant, I want to ask, how do you plan to arrange the air defense position?" "We still have six anti-aircraft machine guns left in our company." Liuba replied, "I plan to build a snow wall here, and then arrange the machine guns behind the snow wall." "Lieutenant Liuba, I would like to share my opinion about your arrangement." After understanding Liuba's thoughts, Sokov drew a straight line on the snow with his toes, and then said: "Look , Your anti-aircraft machine guns have been lined up all the time. If enemy planes come from the north or south, they can indeed form intensive firepower; but if they fly from the east or west, the effect of your air-to-air shooting will be greatly weakened. " Regarding Sokov's statement, Liuba was silent for a moment, and then said: "Comrade battalion commander, you also know that our company only has six anti-aircraft machine guns. It is fundamental to blockade four directions at the same time." Impossible. Unless, unless the superiors give us new anti-aircraft machine guns." "You're wrong, Comrade Lieutenant." Sokov said, squatting down, and drew a hexagon on the snow with his hands, then raised his head and asked Liuba, "Have you seen a beehive? It's just like this hexagon." In this way, you put the six machine guns in the company at the six corners, so that no matter where the enemy planes come from, you can hit them head-on with intensive firepower." Liuba and Sveta squatted beside Sokov, looking down at the hexagons on the snow, thinking hard about the plan Sokov proposed. After a long time, Sveta broke the silence first. She said to Liuba: "Comrade company commander, I think the formation plan proposed by the battalion commander is really great. In my opinion, let's arrange the air defense positions like this." After repeated weighing, Liuba also felt that Sokov's plan was good. Hearing what Sveta said, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's arrange the position according to this." Sokov stood up and said to Vanya: "Comrade Lieutenant, immediately gather the soldiers in your company and help the female soldiers establish an air defense position." Just when Vanya was about to leave, Sveta suddenly said: "Comrade Lieutenant, please wait a moment, I have something to say." Vanya had a surprised expression on his face when he heard Sveta say this. Looking at the other party, he asked, "Comrade instructor, do you have anything else to explain?" Sveta did not answer immediately, but turned to Sokov and said, "Comrade Battalion Commander, I would like to say a few words. Although in our propaganda, we have repeatedly emphasized: Soviet women are first and foremost soldiers on the battlefield. Not women. But we all know that these female soldiers are girls who have never seen anything in the world. If they stay with a group of male soldiers of the same age all day long, it is inevitable that there will be problems. Therefore, I beg you, in the Without permission, any male soldier is not allowed to enter the female soldier's garrison. Is that okay?" Facing this woman with strong ideological principles, Sokov just smiled lightly, turned his head and said to Belkin: "Comrade political deputy battalion commander, I have the final say on military matters; life matters are up to you." The final decision. In my opinion, it is up to you to issue this order to the soldiers." Belkin nodded with a smile, and said: "Comrade Sveta is right. It is true that male soldiers cannot be allowed to enter and leave the camp of female soldiers casually, otherwise there may be many lovers on the battlefield. You know, our main task now, It is to defeat the Japanese invaders and defend our motherland, not to fall in love." Seeing that Belkin agreed to his request, Sveta's expression became relaxed. After Vanya, Liuba and others left, Belkin asked Sokov in a low voice: "Comrade Battalion Commander, did you see Asya in the city today?" "seen." "Then why didn't she come back with you?" Belkin asked curiously. Sokov replied truthfully: "The enemy shelled Susinich, causing great casualties in the city. Asiya was rescuing the wounded in the city and could not return in a short time."
