Shortly after the reconnaissance team led by Zub and Chursin set off, the second and third echelons arrived at the edge of the forest one after another.
Seeing that his troops were all gathered in one place, Karelin immediately became confident and said to Sokov: "Captain Sokov, I have all arrived. Why not just attack the soap factory and eliminate the enemies in the factory."
When he said this, Karelin also looked at Vlasov, Colonel Del and Nikolsky not far away, as if he wanted to get the support of the three of them. But to his surprise, the three of them didn't say a word, just looked at Sokov with a smile, as if waiting for him to make an idea.
"Don't worry, Comrade Captain." Sokov shook his head unexpectedly and said, "We are not aware of how many enemies there are in the soap factory, what kind of equipment they have, who are fighting with them, how many troops and equipment they have, etc. If we rashly put the troops into battle, it may cause many unnecessary casualties."
"But you just said that the people in the soap factory may not be able to hold on for much time." Carrelin continued: "Although you sent two squads to reconnaissance, with their little force, they can't deal with the enemy in the factory at all."
"Don't worry, Comrade Captain," said Sokov. "I just said the same thing. They not only have reconnaissance missions, but also put into battle when necessary. If the enemy's troops are not large, we will unleash the troops and attack the soap factory, and eat up the enemies in the factory. But if there are too many enemies, we can only use them to restrain the enemy and then go around from other directions to avoid fighting with the enemy."
Seven or eight minutes later, the gunshots and explosions in the direction of the soap factory became more intense. According to Sokov's experience, it was probably the two squads commanded by Zub and Churxin who were involved in the battle in the soap factory. At this time, a soldier could be seen running towards this side.
When the soldiers came closer, they raised their hand to salute Sokov and reported pantingly: "Captain, Sergeant Zubu asked me to come back to report to you: there is about a platoon of German troops in the soap factory, equipped with two armored vehicles and more than a dozen tricycles on the side. The troops that exchanged fire with them should be the small troops of our army that were dispersed. They rely on the factory to resist the attack of the Germans. Now our people have exchanged fire with the Germans, Sergeant Zubu asks you to send someone to support quickly."
After figuring out the enemy's troops and equipment, Sokov began to issue orders: "The first company attacked from the front, the second company deviated from the left, and the third company deviated from the right, so that it is necessary to wipe out the enemy in the soap factory."
After hearing Sokov's order, the three company commanders stood there without moving, but turned their eyes to their battalion commander Karelin, wanting to hear what instructions he had?
Karelin glanced at Vrasov's people and asked Sokov tentatively: "Captain Sokov, if we put all our troops into battle, then who will protect General Vrasov's life safety?"
"Don't worry," Sokov said: "My subordinates can do this task. Your current mission is to wipe out the German army in the soap factory."
"I understand." Karelin nodded, then turned around and said to his company commanders: "What are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and attack the enemy according to Captain Sokov's orders. If you miss the opportunity to fight, I will punish you."
Seeing that Karelin got angry, several company commanders immediately dispersed and returned to their respective troops. According to Sokov's order, they attacked the soap factory.
The troops were fighting, so Sokov naturally would not stay on the edge of the forest and wait for news, but went to the soap factory with Karelin to personally direct the final annihilation battle.
The German army at the soap factory had already suffered nearly half of casualties when attacking the factory. Not long ago, they were attacked by the reconnaissance troops commanded by Zubu and Churxin, and many soldiers were killed and killed. They could not hold on anymore, and when several Soviet companies pressed up, they were even less able to fight back. The battle lasted only a few minutes and then it ended in a hurry.
When Sokov and Karelin arrived at the soap factory, the battle was over and all the German officers and soldiers fell under the guns of the Soviet army.
Seeing that the battle was over, Sokov quickly came to the factory and shouted at it: "Hey, comrades inside, the enemy has been destroyed by us, you can come out!"
Hearing Sokov's shout, more than a dozen ragged commanders and fighters walked out of the factory gate. The man walking in front was actually inlaid with two gold stars on the diamond-shaped collar, which represented a major general.
Although the other party's face was blackened by the smoke of gunpowder, Sokov was still shocked after seeing the other party's face clearly, because it was no one else standing in front of him, but Major General Potapov who he was still talking about in his heart not long ago.
