Struggle in Soviet Russia

Chapter 409: Old opponent

The rough amber stone in his hand was thrown back to the ground. Victor clapped his hands and wiped off the soil contaminated on his hands. Then he took a step forward, turned and walked back to the original path.

Compared with Moscow, the Western Ukraine entering September is still warmer than the ensign. In addition, a warm current has passed through the border in recent days, which not only brought rainfall, but also brought a short period of warming.

Today’s weather is very good, the sun is shining, and the temperature is neither high nor low. Victor walked out of the entrance of the fortress and saw some border guard soldiers carrying dead bodies on a truck.

In yesterday’s attack, the internal guards responsible for guarding the fortress area suffered a certain loss, but compared to the losses suffered by the internal guards, the Ukrainian rebels that launched the attack suffered even more losses. There were almost a hundred or so people. More than a third stayed here.

The attack last night, in addition to bringing risks to the materials hoarded in the fortress, what made Victor even more dissatisfied was that before the attack, neither the Internal Intelligence Agency nor the People’s Committee of the Interior had received any news. . In addition, in the current West Ukraine region, the border guards and garrisons are taking large-scale clearance operations, and this not-so-small-scale resistance guerrilla has appeared in the hinterland of Warren Oblast. What is the railway line from Kiev to Lviv?

Fortunately, the materials hoarded in the fortress did not suffer any losses. Otherwise, once the incident reaches Moscow, it is estimated that he, the chairman of the People’s Committee for National Security, and Merkulov, the acting internal affairs committee of the People’s Committee of the Interior, will probably have Can't eat it and walk around.

Following the path full of weeds and walking all the way to the **** behind the fortress, Victor stopped on the top of the kneeless **** of weeds and looked up to the northwest.

Where you can see, there is an endless jungle. Here is the intersection of the Warren Hills and the Polesier Marsh Lowlands. To the north, there is an inaccessible swamp area, which spreads to the north and finally connects to the Propyat River swamp area. And to the south is the Warren hills. The jungle is the main theme of that area, covering almost half of Western Ukraine.

The tens of thousands of Ukrainian rebels are hiding in this vast area with both jungles and swamps. If they are to be wiped out in a short period of time, obviously they cannot be achieved by force alone.

Looking at the northwest direction for a while, Victor's mind was thinking about how to formulate a feasible anti-bandit plan. However, before he came up with a clue, he heard noisy people under the breakthrough. The sound came, with the sound of cars honking in between.

His vision was blocked by the earth slope, and Victor couldn't see the situation below. He frowned. When he was about to turn downhill, he saw that he broke through the fortress barrier below, turned out a few figures, and walked in the front. It was Comrade Merkulov, and behind him were two men wearing Rogativka military caps.

As soon as he saw the two people following Merkulov, a smile appeared on Victor's face. He pulled out his hand from his trouser pocket and stepped forward to greet the person.

Major Bobansky, this is a person who Viktor specially sent to Moscow some time ago and applied for transfer. This person has been fighting the Ukrainian rebels for a long time in the West Ukraine area. If it comes to fighting against Germany, he does not think that Taihang, but when it comes to fighting against the old opponents of the Resistance Army, it is estimated that even the regular Alliance Army cannot match them.

Following Merkulov, it was Major Bobansky and Lieutenant Anita. When they walked up the slope, they also saw Victor on the top of the slope. His royal blue uniform was very It is conspicuous, and the shining star on the brochure is enough to explain his identity.

To the People’s Committee of the National Security Committee of the Alliance, Bobanski would never feel unfamiliar, because just a short time ago, this department was their enemy and a very dangerous enemy. Become a "friend", although this friend is not worthy of the truth, but it can really determine their destiny.

Seeing Victor approaching them with a smile on his face, Bobansky, who had always been serious, hurriedly put on a smiling face, and stepped a little faster.

Just as Bobanski himself said before, the Polish national army under his leadership is really unable to persist now. Therefore, surrendering to the alliance became their only way out.

The Polish National Army organized by the Polish government-in-exile can not be said to be weak, but this paramilitary organization has a big weakness, that is, its military resources are very regional. Just like the 27th Infantry Division led by Bobansky, why was its original name called the 27th Infantry Division of Voliniya? It is because the soldiers of its troops are all from the Old Voliniya Province. More precisely, they are basically from the northern part of Khmelnitsky Oblast.

The formation of the 27th Infantry Division originated before the outbreak of the Soviet-German War. Therefore, the original purpose of the formation of the infantry division was not to fight against the Germans, but to fight against the Ukrainian nationalist guerrillas at the time, mainly to resist the Ukrainians. The massacre of the Poles.

In the years when the Germans controlled Volinia and Galicia, the Ukrainian nationalist forces in the region have been greatly expanded, while the Poles have been greatly restricted. Because of this, in the West In Ukraine, and even in southeastern Poland, organizations like the 27th Infantry Division actually hate the Germans more deeply, while their hatred of the alliance is not so obvious. This is also the smooth integration of the Polish National Army in the Lublin area. The root cause.

A unit with a relatively strong regional character must not be determined enough to fight, especially when the war is over, the soldiers of the unit want more, or be able to go back alive and live a good life. Take the 27th Infantry Division as an example. They do not have a strong sense of belonging to the Polish government in exile. At the same time, they also know that they are not capable of fighting for the independence of Volinia. Therefore, as long as the alliance can protect their hometown from being destroyed by war. , So that they can live a peaceful life, they will not have the mind to continue fighting. As for whether the entire Volinia will belong to Poland or the Soviet Union in the future, they can't care about so much, and they won't be able to care about so much.

Just a few steps away from Victor, Bobanski stopped first. He stood up straight, and while saluting Victor, he said loudly: "Comrade Chief Victor Viktorovich, Laren Boban. Sky was ordered to report to you."

Victor also stopped, and while he greeted the other party, he smiled and said: "Hello, Comrade Laren Bobanski, welcome you."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lieutenant Anita who was following Bobansky.

"This is my assistant, Lieutenant Anita Mikelska," Bobansky hurriedly introduced his deputy.

After listening to the other party's introduction, Victor was stunned. He smiled and nodded to Lieutenant Anita, but he did not look down on them because the opponent's rank was too low.

Bobanski is the commander of the 27th Infantry Division. Now, after the reorganization of the 27th Infantry Division, in terms of staffing, it is a bit far from the staffing of a division. There are only more than two thousand people in this unit. It is a regiment. This is not because the Soviet army forcibly abolished their people, but these so-called Polish infantry divisions were made up of dissatisfaction.

After reorganization, Bobansky, as a division commander, received a certain degree of preferential treatment and was awarded the rank of a Soviet major, while his deputies, including Anita, could only receive the rank of lieutenant. The fundamental reason for the difference in military rank between the two.

"Comrade Major, you have come all the way, you have worked hard," Victor said, returning his gaze back to Bobanski. "You can set up camp here and rest for the night, and I will announce the task to you tomorrow."

After a pause, he glanced at the military uniform on the opponent, and then continued: "I have read the report you submitted before. I am trying my best to solve the problem of changing clothes, if there is no accident. , At most three days, your new military uniform will be delivered over. Comrade Major, don’t worry about this."

At this time, the military uniforms worn by Bobansky and Anita were still summer uniforms. It is now late September. In this season, it is obviously impossible to wear such thin summer uniforms.

Of course, this is also because Bobanski's troops have just been reorganized in Lublin. They did not have uniform uniforms at all, and these uniforms are now adjusted from the Polish People's Army.

"Thank you, Comrade Chief," Bobansky saluted again, and then hesitated. "Comrade Chief, if possible, I would like to know the content of the task first. Tonight, I want to study the task first."

Victor stared at him. After a while, he smiled and said, "It's fine."

In response to this, he turned his head to look at Merkulov who was aside, and the latter said with an understanding: "The reason why we have applied for you to be transferred is because we have a cunning enemy to deal with, and this enemy should It is familiar to you."

"Kalpenko?" Bobansky's reaction was quick, and Merkulov had only said this, and he knew who he was going to deal with.

"Yes, Kalpenko," Victor said, taking over the subject, "we know he is hiding in Warren, and all we have to do now is to find him out and clean it up."
