After counting the results of the battle, Yakup couldn't help but be shocked. According to his opinion, the German army's marching column was too long, a full kilometer long in front and back. Even with the high maneuverability of the automatic sled and the Istria
With the help of the company, many Germans will still be able to successfully escape into the forest.
Yakup got in touch with the headquarters in the rear through the walkie-talkie he carried, and reported the results to his superiors. His superior was Colonel Orel of the Army Headquarters. Orel heard that the automatic sled
The company actually wiped out all the German troops. He was stunned at first, and then asked in surprise: "Are your casualties high?" According to his idea, although the automatic sled company is equipped with 15 machine guns, if it wants to completely wipe out the enemy, it will definitely take a lot of effort.
Not a small price to pay.
But Yakup's next reply surprised him again: "Reporting to Comrade Colonel, we have no casualties."
"How is this possible?" Hearing that the automatic sled company had no casualties, Orel was very surprised and said: "After all, the enemy has more than 200 people, and you only have 15 automatic sleds. If you want to annihilate them all, you will definitely have to pay a huge effort.
The price, how come there are no casualties?" He was worried that Yakup lied about the results of the battle because his troops suffered heavy casualties and was worried about being blamed by his superiors, so he comforted him, "Comrade Captain, no matter how many casualties your company suffered, you always told the truth.
Tell me honestly, I will not blame you, after all, the enemy you face is very powerful. At the same time, I will also supplement it for you as soon as possible."
Hearing what Orel said, Yakup immediately understood that the other party had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Comrade Colonel, what I said is the truth. We indeed have no casualties. By the way, I forgot to tell you, we are not even
Fighting alone, but receiving support from friendly forces."
"Friendly forces, what kind of friendly forces?" Orel asked in surprise: "Comrade Captain, which army is it to assist you in destroying the enemy?" When asking this question, he stared at the map spread out in front of him, thinking in his mind.
I was thinking quickly about which army would appear in the area.
Yakup glanced at Lin Hua, who was directing the soldiers to gather prisoners and collect weapons in the distance, and then said: "Their number is Istria Company, which may be the honorary title they just received, company commander..."<
/p>
Before he could finish speaking, Orel had already interrupted and asked: "The company commander is Lieutenant Sokov, right?"
"That's right, that's right." Hearing that Orel said Lin Hua's surname and military rank in one breath, Yakup couldn't help but curiously asked: "Comrade Colonel, how did you know?"
"I'm looking for him everywhere." After receiving Yakup's confirmation, Orel immediately ordered: "Hurry up and call him over. I have a new combat mission to give him."
Yakup quickly shouted outside: "Lieutenant Sokov, Lieutenant Sokov!" When he saw Lin Hua turning his head to look towards him, he added, "Please come here, there is a commander who wants to talk to you.
Your call!"
"Is there a commander who wants to talk to me?" When Lin Hua heard what Yakup said, he thought he heard it wrong. He walked to the automatic sled and asked tentatively: "Comrade Captain, do you really want to talk to me?"
Call?"
"Of course it's true. How could I still make such a joke with you?" As he spoke, Yakup put the headphones and microphone in Lin Hua's hands and urged him: "
Hurry up, the commander is still waiting online."
Lin Hua just put on the earphones, and before he could speak, he heard a strange voice coming from the earphones: "Is it Lieutenant Sokov? I am Colonel Oryol, Director of Armored Forces of the Group Army. Now, on behalf of the Army Headquarters, I give you
Issue a new order."
When Lin Hua heard what Orel said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, secretly saying that it seemed that his superiors had assigned him a difficult task. Although he was muttering in his heart, he still tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Comrade Colonel, please give the order.
Give the order. I want you to guarantee that Istra Company will successfully complete every task assigned by its superiors."
"Don't worry, Comrade Lieutenant, the mission this time is very simple." Orel said into the microphone: "In order to escape our army's pursuit and attack from two sides, the enemy conserved their strength, so they retreated while throwing away obstacles.
Escaped things. During our pursuit, we often encountered technical equipment and various military supplies abandoned by the enemy. Your company's mission is to immediately go south to collect weapons, equipment and various supplies abandoned by the enemy. Do you understand?
”
"Understood, comrade colonel." Hearing that Orel had given him the task of picking up ocean debris, Lin Hua hurriedly replied to such a good thing: "I will lead the troops to carry out your order."<
/p>
"Lieutenant Sokov, I want to remind you." Orel was deeply afraid that Lin Hua would interrupt the communication, and quickly said: "The enemy has laid mines around these equipment and supplies. You must pay attention to safety when collecting them.
."
"Yes, we will definitely pay attention to our own safety." Lin Hua thought that if he really went to pick up foreign food, his own manpower might not be enough, so he took the initiative to ask Orel: "Colonel
Comrade, we are short of manpower, do you think you can send some people to help?"
In response to Lin Hua's request, Orel said: "Wait a moment." Then he took off his earphones, walked to Rokossovsky who was reading the battle report, and said to him: "Comrade Commander, I have given
Istralian has issued an order to collect supplies, but they have limited manpower and it will be very difficult to complete this task. Do you think you can send them some people from somewhere?"
Rokossovsky waited for Orel to finish speaking, frowned and thought for a moment, and then said: "Comrade Colonel, contact the ski groups and guerrillas operating nearby and ask them to quickly concentrate on the above-mentioned areas and
It is under the unified command of Lieutenant Sokov. By the way, the automatic sled company seems to be with them, and it is also under his command."
"Comrade Commander," Orel waited for Rokossovsky to finish and then carefully reminded him: "Comrade Sokov is only a lieutenant, and the commander of the automatic sled company Yakup has the rank of captain. Let the lieutenant
Isn’t it appropriate to go and execute the captain?”
Rokossovsky raised his head and glanced at Orel, without giving him any explanation, but directly ordered: "Comrade Colonel, now that the mission has been clarified, hurry up and convey my order!
”
Orel returned to the walkie-talkie, put on the earphones again, and said into the transmitter: "Lieutenant Sokov, listen, according to the commander's order, we will order the ski groups and guerrillas operating in this area as soon as possible.
The troops, move closer to you. These troops, including Captain Yakup's automatic sled company, are under your command, do you understand?"
"I understand, Comrade Colonel." Lin Hua heard that his superiors planned to hand over more troops to his command, and he couldn't help but think to himself, and quickly replied: "I promise you that the mission will be completed successfully."
"Now that you understand, let's give the headset and microphone to Captain Yakup," Orel said helplessly: "I want to repeat this order to him so that he can better cooperate with you.
