Chapter 131 The transfer station of the German army After sending off several company commanders, Sokov couldn't help but have a headache for the weapons and clothing required by the new fighters. Seeing Sokov's frowning look, Belkin couldn't help but asked curiously: "Comrade battalion commander, we just recruited a few hundred soldiers. This is a happy thing. Why do you seem unhappy?" .” "Comrade Deputy Battalion Commander," Sokov complained to Belkin: "The logistical supply is difficult today. Our battalion has replenished more than 600 people at once. How should we solve the military uniforms and weapons they need?" Belgin waited for Sokov to finish speaking, and said with a relaxed expression: "The matter of clothing is easy to handle. No matter how difficult the logistics are, as long as we apply to the division headquarters, I believe hundreds of sets of military uniforms can still be made for us." "What about the weapons, who should we ask to replenish them?" Sokov said a little unconvinced: "In the report I submitted the day before yesterday, I asked the division headquarters to replenish the weapons and ammunition consumed in the battle. But it was rejected. Without weapons, soldiers can’t fight, so we can’t let them take sticks and fight the Germans, right?” Belgin smiled, took out a stack of square papers from his pocket, handed them to Sokov, and said at the same time: "Comrade Battalion Commander, this is a telegram from Christopher. I I think after you read it, you won’t be so troubled like you are now.” Hearing that it was Christopher's telegram, coupled with Belkin's confident expression, Sokov guessed that the contents of the telegram must have something to do with the weapon he urgently needed. He quickly unfolded the telegram and quickly browsed through the contents. Christopher said in a telegram that they accidentally discovered a German transfer station on their way back to the unnamed highlands. After repeated reconnaissance, it was found that a large number of weapons and ammunition, as well as various military supplies, were stored here, and there was only one platoon of defenders. After reading the above content, Sokov put the telegram on the table, looked down at the map, and looked for the place Christopher mentioned. He had just started to search, but Belgin had already pointed to the specific location, and tapped twice with his finger: "Comrade battalion commander, it's here!"
Sokov took a closer look, and found that it was exactly the location Christopher said in the telegram. He raised his head and said to Belkin with a smile: "Comrade deputy battalion commander, you are very powerful. You found the place in no time." Belkin grinned, and replied: "To tell you the truth, I have been looking at the map for the past two days when you left, so I have already memorized the location Christopher said." Knowing that Belgin had already been studying the terrain, Sokov knew in his heart that the other party must also be thinking about the idea of attacking the German army as a transfer station, so he tentatively asked: "Comrade deputy battalion commander, tell me your opinion, what do you think we Should we go to the transfer station of the German army?" Belkin said in a positive tone: "I think it should be played. But how to play, we need to study carefully." He picked up the red and blue pencils on the table, and used the end without a nib to draw the ball at the transfer station. Draw a circle and say, "According to the information we have obtained, there are German motorized division troops stationed on the east and west sides of the transfer station. Once there is any trouble at the transfer station, they can arrive within ten minutes. Therefore , we can only use sneak attack tactics to capture the enemy's transfer station." Sokov didn't make a statement immediately, but just stared at the map and deliberated over and over again. After a while, he looked up at Belkin and asked, "Comrade Deputy Battalion Commander, according to your ideas, how many people should we send for the sneak attack?" "My original idea was to send a small team of twenty to assist Christopher's reconnaissance team, sneak attack on the transfer station, and burn the supplies stored by the enemy here." Belgin replied truthfully: "But now The situation has changed, we lack weapons, and it would be a pity to burn the materials here. Therefore, I think at least one company of troops must be sent to remove the materials we need after capturing the transfer station." "Comrade Deputy Battalion Commander, I agree with your plan." After listening to Belkin's plan, Sokov felt that it coincided with his own ideas, and then he was going to discuss the details with the other party: "But you Have you ever thought that the enemy's transfer station is only a dozen kilometers away from our position, and their vigilance must be very high. Once our army's actions are detected by the enemy and the sneak attack turns into a storm, what should we do if the German troops on the east and west sides come to reinforce us? If we only dispatched one company, there would be no way to stop the enemy and move supplies at the same time." Sokov's words made Belkin realize that his consideration was not comprehensive enough, so he humbly asked for advice: "Comrade battalion commander, tell me, what should we do?" "I plan to send two companies to complete the task of capturing the transfer station." Sokov pointed to the map and said to Belkin: "One of the companies is responsible for capturing the transfer station, while the other company is responsible for blocking reinforcements on the road. .” "Which two companies are you going to use to perform this task?" Belkin asked. "At present, the second company is the most complete organization, and the machine gun company is the most powerful." Sokov said confidently: "The second company is responsible for capturing the transfer station, and the machine gun company is responsible for blocking the enemy who comes to help." Andrei and Vasily rushed to the battalion command post as soon as they received Sokov's call. After Andre entered the door, he asked curiously: "Comrade Battalion Commander, you called us here in such a hurry. Is there anything important?" "Sit down." Belkin called the two of them to sit down, and then continued, "Call you two over, there is a combat mission to be assigned." Hearing that there was a combat mission, Vasily's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "Comrade Battalion Commander, are you going to launch an attack on the enemy south of the high ground?" Sokov raised his hand and slapped his helmet, and said angrily: "Lieutenant Vasily, let a unit with only light weapons actively attack the enemy equipped with tanks and cannons, this kind of stupidity is only you Figure it out." Vasia, who was criticized, didn't show any frustration on his face. On the contrary, he said with a smile: "Comrade battalion commander, I just said that casually, just as a joke. Tell us quickly, what combat mission do you want to give us?" Pointing at the map, Sokov told the two company commanders about his plan and Belkin's plan, and divided the work between them. Finally he asked, "Is there a problem?" "No problem." Vasia replied first: "I will never let an enemy pass by my blocking position until the transfer station is emptied of supplies." But Andre was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Comrade battalion commander, although our company now has two hundred people, it is still very difficult to move so many supplies back from more than ten kilometers away. The soldiers carried such Heavy materials, and marching in a forest full of snow, the speed must not be fast, once you encounter the enemy, you will definitely suffer heavy losses."
"I've already considered this." Sokov continued: "You guys even bring some more sleds. After capturing the transfer station, you can put all the seized supplies on the sleds and let the soldiers pull them back. It’s much easier to carry it on your shoulder.” Seeing that Sokov had considered all the things that should be considered, Andre finally asked: "Then when shall we act?" "Leave as soon as it gets dark. I will personally lead the team for this operation." Sokov raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It will be dark in three hours. Go back and get ready."
