Chapter 68: Adelina's experience

  Chapter 68 Adelina's experience

  When Asia came out of Adelina's room early in the morning, her eyes were red, as if she had cried. After seeing it, Sokov asked with some distress: "Asiya, what's wrong with you, why are your eye circles red?"

It was okay for Sokov not to speak, but as soon as he asked a question, Assia began to wipe away tears again: "I chatted with Adelina all night, and she told me her experience, she was really unhappy Easy."

Hearing what Assia said, Sokov couldn't help thinking to himself, although Adelina revealed her identity to herself yesterday, she couldn't easily confide her many personal experiences to a big man like him, but for Midnight Asiya, who came to stay overnight, might talk about everything. Thinking of this, the fire of gossip in his heart couldn't help blazing. He quickly glanced at the door and saw that there was no one outside, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Asiya, what did she say to you, can you tell me?" ?”

"Adelina is the daughter of a famous scholar. She is well-educated and can speak fluent French and German." Assia sat on the chair Sokov brought for her and began to tell Adelina's story : "...After the war broke out, as the Japanese invaders approached the city, her father was included in the first batch of evacuation lists. Originally, she could also go to the rear with her father, but she resolutely stayed, And accepted the assignment of superiors, stayed in Volokramsk to engage in underground work.

  ...After the German army occupied the city, she successfully sneaked into the German garrison headquarters and became the personal interpreter of the garrison commander. Because she is good at playing the piano and can recite Goethe's "Faust" in German, she is highly appreciated by the garrison commander and thinks that she is much better than those superficial and vulgar officers' wives. Seeing that she was so highly valued by the garrison commander, all the officers stationed in the city came to flatter her one after another, so that she easily obtained a lot of important information. "

  Hearing this, Sokov couldn't help interjecting and asked: "Since she is so valued by the garrison commander, why did she come to this prisoner-of-war camp as an interpreter?"

"Before our army's major counteroffensive began, the garrison commander received an important document, which contained the latest German combat plan. It included the deployment of troops to attack Moscow and the specific time." Asya continued: "She immediately reported the situation After reporting to the contact person who stayed in the city, the other party instructed her to find a way to get this document. That night, she sneaked into the garrison commander's room, opened the file cabinet with a key that she stole, and took out the document. An important document was re-photographed. Just as she finished all this and was about to leave, she bumped into the garrison commander who pushed the door in.

  She was terrified at the time, thinking she had been caught stealing the documents. Unexpectedly, the garrison commander who came in was already drunk, so he didn't notice her behavior at all, and wanted to moles her instead. She was so angry that she slapped the other person fiercely, then rushed out of the door. After she left the headquarters, she handed over the film to the contact person who was waiting outside.

When the commander of the garrison woke up the next day, he didn't find that the documents had been touched, but he remembered that he was slapped twice by Agelina here. He didn't say anything because he was worried that his career would be affected. He just ordered the Adelina was sent to this POW camp as an interpreter. "

  After listening to the story told by Assia, Sokov secretly sighed in his heart: This Adelina’s experience is so thrilling that it can be adapted into a movie.

Seryozha came in from the outside and saw the two talking, he coughed heavily, and when both of them turned their heads to look at him, he quickly reminded Sokov: "Comrade battalion commander, the commander who came to the meeting They are all waiting outside, should they come in now, or wait a little longer?" When he said this, he glanced at Assia quickly, suggesting that if Sokov was inconvenient, he could come back later.

  Asiya learned that Sokov was going to have a meeting, she hurriedly stood up and said, "Misha, I'm going to take care of the wounded, and I'll come back in the evening." After speaking, she left the room as if fleeing.

   Seeing Asya leave, Sokov told Sergesha: "Platoon Guard, call all the commanders in."

Sergesha nodded, then exited the door, stood in the corridor and said to the commanders who had been waiting for a long time: "Please come in, comrade commander, please come in, comrade battalion commander is waiting for you." Standing in the corridor The commanders rushed into the room immediately after hearing what Seryosha said. After saluting to Sokov in a chaotic manner, they each found their seats and sat down.

After everyone sat down, Sokov glanced over the commanders present one by one, and found that in addition to the company commanders who attended the meeting yesterday, there were also three company instructors, Si Jie, who attended the meeting. Pan, and several other unfamiliar faces. He raised his chin towards the middle-aged soldier wearing round-frame glasses not far away, and then said, "This comrade, I don't know what to call you?"

  The middle-aged man quickly stood up, straightened his back and said, "Report to the battalion commander, I am Pavlov, the assistant military doctor, and I am temporarily serving as the captain of the health team."

   "Hello, Comrade Assistant Medical Doctor, I am Captain Sokov, Battalion Commander. Nice to meet you." After finishing speaking, Sokov stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Please sit down!"

   Then I got to know the new platoon leader of the engineering platoon, Second Lieutenant Vasya. He used to be the engineer platoon leader in the 30th Army. He was unfortunately captured in a small-scale battle two days before the start of the big counteroffensive.

  The monitor of the communications squad is Maxim, a corporal. It turned out to be the operator of the 38th Infantry Division. After the fall of Volokramsk, his troops were captured by the German army on the way to the Istria Reservoir.

After getting to know all the new commanders, Sokov stood up and said to the crowd with a smile on his face: "comrades commanders, after yesterday's selection, all companies must be fully staffed, right? Tell me, there are Are there any difficulties?"

"Comrade battalion commander, I would like to say a few words." As soon as Sukov finished speaking, Vanya stood up and said, "Our company now has 150 soldiers, but the weapons are a little less, and only half of the soldiers have arms."

   "Our situation is similar." As soon as Vanya finished speaking, Andrei and Savyev also stood up and complained to Sokov about the shortage of weapons.

   After the two finished speaking, Sokov signaled them to sit down with his eyes, then turned his head and asked Vasily who was silent: "Lieutenant Vasily, why don't you speak?"

   "We even have 20 machine guns today, but we don't have any artillery," Vasily looked at Sokov and asked, "I wonder if Comrade Battalion Commander can get us some artillery, even mortars."

The lack of weapons caused Sokov a headache. After the room became quiet again, he said to everyone: "Commanders, we are now behind enemy lines. It is very difficult for the superiors to provide us with supplies. , everything can only be solved by ourselves.”

   "Find a solution by yourself, how to solve it?" Andre muttered softly: "There are no enemy warehouses nearby for us to rob..."

  Although Andrei's voice was low, it was clearly heard by Sokov because the room was not big. The speaker had no intention but the listener was interested. He felt that what Andre said could solve the current predicament, so he asked the other party, "Second Lieutenant Andre, what did you just say?"

  Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Andre quickly stood up and said in a panic, "I said we can't solve the problem of weapons and ammunition..."

   "It's not this sentence," Sokov interrupted him before he finished speaking, "it's the last sentence."

  Although Andrei didn't know the purpose of Sokov's question, he still answered truthfully: "I said that there are no enemy warehouses nearby, let us go and grab them!"

Sokov waited for Andrei to finish speaking, slapped the table with his hand, and repeatedly applauded: "Wonderful, really wonderful! Second Lieutenant Andrei, your idea is good." Then he told Sergei, "You go Call Adelina here, I have something important to ask her."

   "Comrade Battalion Commander," Vanya watched Seryozha's back disappearing from the door, and asked curiously, "What is Adelina doing at our military meeting?"

  Sokov naturally wouldn't reveal the mystery so early, he replied with a smile: "Lieutenant Vanya, don't be impatient, you will know what's going on after Adelina comes."
