When Lin Hua heard Ma Linin ask this question, he immediately instinctively replied: "I am Sokov."
After Malinin looked him up and down, he nodded slightly, and then said to Ivan and the others: "Comrade Major, you go back and prepare for the attack first. I want to talk to Lieutenant Sokov."
Lin Hua didn't know what important things Ma Lining would have to talk about if he stayed behind. He quickly turned to Ivan for help, hoping to get some help from him. But Ivan turned a blind eye to his gaze and just raised his hand to
Malinin and Lieutenant Colonel Batrakov saluted, and then walked out of the command post with the other two company commanders.
After Ivan and the others left, Ma Lining asked Lin Hua to sit down, poured him a cup of hot tea, and asked kindly: "Comrade Sokov, where are you from?"
Hearing Malinin asking himself, Lin Hua couldn't possibly still sit still. He quickly stood up and replied: "Comrade Chief of Staff, I am from Moscow. I live at No. 17 Dimiryazevsky Street."<
/p>
Malinin walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, saying: "I used to have an old comrade-in-arms, also named Sokov. His full name is Mikhail Ivanovich Sokov, and he also lives in
On Dimiriazewski Street. Comrade Lieutenant, I want to ask you, who is he to you? Is he a relative, or just the same surname?"
Although Lin Hua did not inherit the memory of the original host of his body, in order to prevent betrayal, he had recently tried every means to get a lot of useful information from Seryosha. Therefore, he could clearly know that the person Ma Linin asked about was exactly
The biological father of the original owner of this body, Mikhail, replied calmly: "Comrade Chief of Staff, he is my father!"
"Is he your father?" Ma Lining heard Lin Hua's answer and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be Mikhail's son. No wonder I think you look so familiar."
But after Batrakov knew that Lin Hua was the son of his comrade-in-arms, he became even more enthusiastic. He put his hands on Lin Hua's shoulders, patted him twice, and said excitedly: "So you are Xiao Misha, do you remember
Me? I hugged you when you were two years old."
Lin Hua really couldn't laugh or cry. He said to himself, don't say that I am not the real Misha. Even if it is true, who can still remember who hugged him when he was two years old? So he could only shake his head and said apologetically: "I'm sorry.
, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, I was too young at the time and I don’t remember many things.”
When Batrakov heard what Lin Hua said, he couldn't help but show a disappointed expression on his face. After he removed his hands from Lin Hua's shoulders, his expression returned to normal. He asked businesslikely: "Soko
Lieutenant Husband, how many people are there in your company?"
"Including the Khimki garrison platoon, there are exactly forty people."
"Khimki Garrison Platoon?" Batrakov couldn't help but frowned after hearing this number: "I heard that before our army's counterattack began, a German army bypassed our army's defense line in an attempt to capture
Khimki Town, but their attempt was crushed by our troops who stood there. Lieutenant Sokov, were you the ones holding Khimki Town at that time?"
Before Lin Hua could answer, Malinen on the side had already said: "Yes, it was Sokov who commanded a squad at that time, which blocked the German attack and defended the town of Khimki very well."
"It's not easy. Just one garrison squad blocked the German reconnaissance battalion. This is really amazing!" As a frontline commander, Batrakov is naturally familiar with the situation of the German army. He knows it very well.
The combat effectiveness of the German reconnaissance battalion is not only stronger than that of ordinary combat troops, but is also much better equipped. But considering that Lin Hua is facing a fierce battle next, he can't help but worry and ask: "Comrade Lieutenant, what are you going to do next?"
The battle is to seize the high ground that is tightly defended by the German army. How about it, are you confident in taking it?"
Before seeing the high ground held by the German troops, Lin Hua did not express any opinions rashly, but said cautiously: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, I can't answer your question now. I can only see with my own eyes what the enemy's position looks like.
Only then do we know whether we can win the high ground."
"Lieutenant Sokov," Ma Lining waited for Lin Hua to finish, then said, "The reason why I kept you is because I was entrusted by the commander. He said that you are a rare talent. If you die on the battlefield,
, it would be a pity. So I hope you can work in our headquarters. I don’t know what you think about it?"
Lin Hua did not expect that Rokossovsky had been paying attention to him and giving him such a high evaluation. Although he had a good impression of Rokossovsky, he was also willing to follow him to conquer the north and south. In the future,
He established immortal feats in the war. However, the Soviet Army has always had a tradition of despising staff officers. Once he becomes a staff officer at the headquarters, his room for future advancement will be very limited.
It was based on this consideration that Lin Hua politely declined Ma Lining's proposal: "I'm sorry, Comrade Chief of Staff, I still hope to fight the Germans face to face on the front line." After saying this, he immediately stood at attention on the spot, head held high.
He straightened his chest, raised his hand to his forehead, and asked politely, "Comrade Chief of Staff, do you allow me to return to the army and participate in the battle?"
Lin Hua left the regiment command post and relied on the guidance of the patrol to successfully find his troops in a trench a few hundred meters away. At this moment, Ivan was assigning tasks to the two company commanders in the command post:
"...The height of the highland is 126.7 meters above sea level, and the width is 150 meters. From the bottom of the hillside to the German position at the top of the hillside, the total is 500 meters....According to the intelligence we have, the German firepower on the highland
, can block all areas where we attack..."
After Ivan finished introducing the situation, Bukov spoke first and said: "Comrade Battalion Commander, my opinion is that three companies will attack the high ground at the same time and rush to the enemy's position in one go..."
"No, Captain Bukov, this tactic of yours will not succeed." Before Bukov could finish his words, Leskov interrupted him and began to elaborate on his point of view: "According to
As far as I know, the troops attacking the highlands adopted this tactic from the very beginning. Apart from paying a huge price, they achieved no results at all."
Just as the two company commanders were arguing over which tactics to use, Ivan suddenly discovered that Lin Hua was standing next to him, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Misha, are you back? Comrade Chief of Staff left you behind."
,Is there anything important?"
"Comrade Chief of Staff wants me to work at the Army Headquarters." Lin Hua explained the situation to Ivan with a smile, and then added: "However, I have rejected his kindness and said that I intend to stay at the front and
The Germans fought face to face."
"From that lookout, you can see the high ground we are going to attack." Ivan said, picking up the telescope on the table, handing it to Lin Hua, and said to him: "Look at the terrain first, and then tell me.
How should we fight this battle?"
Lin Hua took the telescope from Ivan's hand, walked to the lookout, raised the telescope and looked into the distance. The high ground that caught his eye may have been baptized by Soviet artillery fire, and there was no snow on it at all.
, there are craters everywhere. At the bottom of the long and narrow hillside, the remains of Soviet soldiers are scattered everywhere.
After observing the terrain for a while, Lin Hua put down the telescope, turned around, walked back to Ivan, and said: "Comrade Battalion Commander, according to my observation, the bodies of our commanders and fighters are all two hundred meters away from the German position.
, it can be inferred that their machine gun firepower is very powerful. If we put three companies into attack at the same time, I believe that it will not be long before all the cadres and soldiers of the entire battalion will be lying on the hillside."
Through the two days of contact with Lin Hua, Ivan knew that the other party would not tell anything that he was not sure about. If the whole battalion was really thrown into the attack like before, then the whole army would be destroyed in the end.
The end. Thinking of this, he humbly asked Lin Hua for advice: "Misha, tell me, what should we do?"
Before Lin Hua entered the command post, he saw six mortars placed in the trenches. They should be the mortar platoon sent by Batrakov. If he wanted to seize the high ground, he would need their strong cooperation. So he launched an attack on Iraq.
Fan said: "Comrade Battalion Commander, you have just said that the German defense front is 150 meters, and the six mortars of the mortar platoon can completely suppress them. While the enemy is suppressed by artillery fire,
At the same time, our soldiers quietly approached the enemy's position. As soon as the shelling stopped, before the enemy had recovered, our soldiers quickly rushed into the trenches and started close combat with the enemy, hand-to-hand combat."
Lin Hua originally thought that his plan would be enough to make Ivan and others cheer. Unexpectedly, after finishing speaking, he found that the three of them had not spoken. He asked with some embarrassment: "Did I say something wrong?"
"Of course you are wrong. How can we move closer to the enemy's position during the shelling?" Bukov asked Lin Hua politely: "Aren't you afraid that the shelling will accidentally injure our own people?"
"Captain Bukov, please stop talking." Seeing that Bukov continued to accuse Lin Hua, Leskov came out to smooth things over: "Let's listen to what the comrade battalion commander has to say."
Facing the looks of his three subordinates, Ivan began to think deeply: "Using the old tactic, three companies entered the battle at the same time. But in the face of the German machine gun fire on the high ground, these two hundred or so people would soon give up."
On the hillside.
If you adopt the tactics Misha mentioned, you can quietly move towards the enemy's position while the German position is under shelling. When the troops approach the enemy's position, order the artillery to stop shelling. By then, the troops who have reached the enemy's trenches will only be able to move towards them.
It only takes a few seconds to rush into the enemy's trench..."
