"Comrade Commander," Sivakov called again as soon as the second German attack was repelled, "the casualties of our division are too heavy, please see if you can add some reserves to me."
"Comrade Colonel," even though Sokov now commands several divisions, these troops are still too weak to defend such a vast area. If Sivakov is to be reinforced, the defense forces in other directions will inevitably be weakened.
Unwilling to lose sight of one thing or another, Sivakov rejected Sivakov's request: "I don't have a reserve force in my hands. You can only rely on your existing strength to defend your position. I can't weaken others in order to strengthen you."
direction of defense."
"But, Comrade Commander," Sivakov said with a cry: "You haven't seen how many comrades we sacrificed in order to blow up the enemy's tanks."
"I have seen it all." Sokov replied: "I have seen the fighting process of your division. Comrade Colonel, I have to criticize you a few words. Many recruits have no experience at all, but you let them
Go blow up the tanks. After they jumped out of the trenches, they didn't know how to hide at all. They rushed straight towards the enemy tanks. Didn't they serve as targets for the enemy's infantry?"
Hearing Sokov's criticism, Sivakov was silent for a long time, and finally said embarrassedly: "Comrade Commander, many recruits were temporarily added to the division when we transferred, and there was no time for training, so in
Their performance on the battlefield may be a bit unsatisfactory. But I believe that as long as they fight two more battles, they will become a fighting backbone with rich experience."
When Sokov heard what Sivakov said, he secretly muttered to himself that most people would probably die on the battlefield before they could become the backbone of the battle. However, these words were just something he thought about silently in his mind.
But he did not say it. He was silent for a moment and said to Sivakov: "Comrade Colonel, I will send you an anti-tank team later. This will reduce your casualties when destroying enemy tanks."
Sivakov couldn't help but be overjoyed to learn that Sokov planned to send an anti-tank squad to support him. He had long heard that the 41st Guards Division was equipped with a rocket launcher that could easily launch a rocket launcher at a distance of more than 100 meters.
Destroy the German tanks. Since you can destroy the enemy's tanks at a distance of a hundred meters, it means that your own soldiers do not need to exchange their lives for the enemy's tanks.
"Great, Comrade Commander, this is really great." Sivakov said excitedly: "With this anti-tank squad, I believe our soldiers will be able to hold their position."
After Sokov put down the phone, he returned to his headquarters.
As soon as he returned to the headquarters, Sokov ordered Seryosha to be called in.
Seryosha knew that if Sokov called him at this time, he must have an important mission, so he trotted over quickly. He stood at attention in front of Sokov, straightened his body, and waited for the other party to give orders.
"Seryosa, I think you should know about the battle that took place in the north of the city, right?" Seeing Seryosha nodding to express his knowledge, Sokov continued: "Because many commanders and soldiers of the Sivakov Division have
The new recruits who dare to join the army have no combat experience and suffered heavy casualties in the battle that ended not long ago. In order to effectively eliminate the German tanks, I plan to send your company to support them."
"Comrade Commander," in front of many commanders, Seryosha did not call Sokov by his nickname, but respectfully addressed his position: "Please give me the order."
"Okay, you carry ten rocket launchers and divide them into ten anti-tank groups. Each group has five people, each consisting of a rocket launcher shooter, an ammunition hand and three gunners." Sokov said to Seryosha: "Bring it on
These teams are deployed at the front of the Sivakov Division and are responsible for destroying German tanks approaching our positions."
"Yes!" Seryosha agreed, turned around and prepared to walk outside.
"Wait a minute," Sokov stopped Seryosha and warned him: "Some time ago, our superiors sent us two hundred assault rifles and distributed these weapons to the gunners in the anti-tank team."
Seryosha had an expression of surprise on his face when he heard what Sokov said. He had long been coveted for the assault rifle that Sokov carried with him. Now that his company can also be equipped with such a weapon, how could he not?
He was very happy. He quickly replied loudly: "I understand, Comrade Commander."
Seeing Seryosha leaving happily, Vitkov asked with worry: "Comrade Commander, will letting the soldiers use unfamiliar weapons affect their combat effectiveness?"
"Comrade Chief of Staff, you are worrying too much." Sokov replied with a smile: "Actually, a small amount of this weapon was equipped in the guard camp a long time ago, and everyone has basically mastered the use of this weapon. I believe they
On the battlefield, I will use this weapon more skillfully."
"But I'm worried that after all, this is a newly developed weapon. Whether there will be problems in combat is still unknown." Vitkov reminded Sokov: "If soldiers are rashly equipped with it, once it appears on the battlefield,
What's the problem? I'm worried that the consequences will be disastrous."
"Comrade Chief of Staff," Bely saw the displeased expression on Sokov's face and quickly explained to Vitkov: "Actually, this assault rifle was designed by Colonel Sokov. What is the performance of the weapon?
, he knows best. Since he said there will be no problem, then there must be no problem."
Seryosha led an anti-tank squad of fifty people. As soon as he appeared on the position of the 71st Guards Division, Sivakov, who received the news, came out with a smile on his face. He held Seryosha's hand.
He held his hand and said excitedly: "Captain Seryosha, seeing the anti-tank team you led, I feel much more at ease."
Seeing that Sivakov was so enthusiastic about him, Seryosha wanted to give him reassurance: "Comrade Colonel, please rest assured that these anti-tank fighters I brought are all combat backbones with rich combat experience. As long as
As long as we are here, we will never let enemy tanks approach your position."
"You guys have come from such a long distance and carried such heavy equipment. You must be very tired." Seeing that every commander and fighter in this small unit was carrying a heavy load, Sivakov quickly expressed his stance:
"You guys go to our headquarters to rest for a while. I will arrange for manpower to help you with equipment and send them to the front."
"Thank you for your kindness, Comrade Colonel." Although Seryozha felt that he was a little tired just after the rush march, he was worried that if he handed these weapons to his comrades in the friendly army, he might not find them when the battle started, so he quickly said politely
Rejected Sivakov's kindness: "We can carry our own things into the position."
