Just as Sokov and Asia were staying in the police branch, when the director gave him a reply, the driver who went back to report the news was already driving a jeep back to Mamayevgang. He parked the car at the door of the tent at the brigade command headquarters. Before the fire was even extinguished, he rushed into the tent and shouted in a crying voice: "Comrade Political Commissar, something happened, something happened!"
Belkin and four battalion commanders held a meeting in the tent to discuss how to hold a wedding ceremony for Sokov and Asia after they returned. You should know that the brigade commander's marriage is a major event. In addition to the officers at all levels of the brigade, there may be people sent by superiors to congratulate them.
At this moment, seeing a person rushing into the tent, interrupting the ongoing meeting. Belkin was about to get angry. After seeing the person clearly, he thought to himself, isn't this the driver he sent to send Sokov? Is the brigade commander in trouble? He asked hurriedly: "What happened?"
The driver didn't pay attention to who was in the tent. He stared at Belkin and said anxiously: "Comrade Political Commissar, something happened, something big happened. When the brigade commander and Asia left the marriage registration office, they were detained by several police officers."
"What, was it detained by the police?" When he heard this news, no matter it was Belkin, the battalion commanders present were stunned. Belkin grabbed the driver's clothes and asked excitedly: "Why did they detain the brigade commander?"
"I don't know," the driver said with his head, "I saw the brigade commander and Asia happily coming out of the marriage registration office. Then three policemen blocked their way, one of the police lieutenants pointed the brigade commander with a gun..."
"Bastard," Belkin heard this and shouted at the driver: "Why don't you go up and help when you see the brigade commander being pointed at with a gun?"
"Comrade Political Commissar, I'll help." The driver said with a grievance: "I saw the brigade commander being pointed at by a gun, and rushed over with a submachine gun. But when they rushed over, the brigade commander had already subdued the three of them with bare hands."
When he heard that Sokov had subdued three policemen, Belkin felt relieved. After letting the driver go, he continued to ask: "Since the brigade commander has subdued three policemen, where is he now?" Belkin glanced outside the tent and saw nothing except the jeep that had not yet been turned off. "Has he not come back with you?"
"I haven't come back." The driver shook his head and said, "The brigade commander said he wanted to go back with the police to assist in the investigation, so he asked me to come back first."
When they learned that something happened to Sokov, everyone in the tent was anxious. As soon as the first battalion commander Vanya and the driver finished speaking, they asked anxiously: "Comrade Driver, do you know which branch he went to?"
The driver thought for a while and replied, "I heard the police lieutenant say that they are from the 17th branch."
After confirming which branch Sokov went to, Vanya asked Belkin for instructions: "Comrade Political Commissar, please take me to bring the brigade commander back."
As soon as Vanya finished speaking, Andrei and Vasily rushed to say, "Comrade Political Commissar, this task should be left to our battalion to complete. We promise to bring the brigade commander back safely."
"Enough, stop making noise." Berkin slapped the table with his hands several times, stopping the battalion commanders' noise, and then shouted loudly outside the tent: "Sheliasha, Sheliasha!"
Selyosha was in a nearby tent. He heard Belkin calling himself at the top of his throat and rushed out of the tent. Perhaps because he ran too fast, when he came to Belkin, he was slightly panting: "Comrade Political Commissar, do you have any instructions?"
"The Brigade Commander was detained by the police from the 17th Branch." Berkin looked at Selyosha and ordered: "Get the guards immediately and come with me to rescue the Brigade Commander."
When he learned that Sokov was detained by the police in the city, Selyosaud suddenly turned red. After rushing out of the tent, he blew the whistle hard, and then shouted at the top of his voice: "Guard Company, gather~! Guard Company, gather~!"
While Selyosha was gathering the troops, Belkin said to several battalion commanders with a stern face: "I will take people to rescue the brigade commander, and you can stay and control your respective troops. Do you understand?"
Seeing that Belkin was planning to rescue the brigade commander himself, the battalion commanders were unable to refute him, so they could only agree helplessly: "I understand."
A few minutes later, Selyosha walked in from outside and reported to Belkin: "Comrade Political Commissar, the guard company has been assembled and can set off at any time."
Belkin glanced at the guard company lined up outside and said in a deep voice: "Go!"
A few minutes later, the jeep in Belkin and Seriosha drove the way in front, and two hundred soldiers from the guard company lined up in the fourth column.
Before they could leave the area of ​​Mamayev hill, they were stopped by Ozor who rushed over. He opened the car door and shouted at Belkin in the car: "Comrade Political Commissar, why don't you notify me if something happened to the brigade commander?"
"Major Ozor, you are from the City Defense Council," Belkin quickly came out of the car and said to Ozor with a smile: "This is our 73rd Infantry Brigade's own business. I don't want to cause trouble for you, so I didn't inform you."
"Comrade Political Commissar, what do you mean?" Ozor said angrily: "Since my superiors have sent me to Mamayevgang, I am a member of the 73rd Infantry Brigade. If something happened to the brigade commander, how could I ignore it? No, I must go with you."
After saying that, Ozor waved his hand to the distance and drove a truck convoy from the turn of the hillside. He pointed at the truck and said to Belkin, "Let the soldiers all take the bus, so that we can quickly rescue the brigade commander."
Faced with Ozor's kindness, Belkin could no longer object. He shouted at Seriosha who was standing on the other side of the jeep: "Seriosha, order the soldiers to get in the car immediately!"
When Selyosha heard Belkin's order, he quickly agreed loudly, then ran to the back and shouted at the soldiers of the guard company: "Everyone gets on the car!" When the soldiers started getting on the car one after another, he called several more soldiers and told them, "You go and move two machine guns on the roof. I want to see who dares to hold the brigade commander at that time."
When a convoy of jeep and ten trucks appeared on the streets of Stalingrad, countless eyes immediately attracted. When citizens who were digging fortifications on the roadside saw this convoy, they also said excitedly: "Our troops are coming to the city again."
Ozor, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was very familiar with the road in the city. Under his guidance, the convoy successfully arrived at the door of the 17th Branch. As soon as the car stopped, Belkin jumped out of the car first, stood on the side of the road, and shouted at the soldiers who were getting off the car: "Fill me up here, no one is allowed to let go."
With Belkin's order, teams of soldiers carrying live ammunition rushed over and surrounded the building where the 17th branch was located. Two trucks with machine guns on the top of the bridge drove to the door of the police station and pointed the black muzzle at the door.
After everything was arranged, Selyosha led a group of soldiers to Belkin and said, "Comrade Political Commissar, our people have surrounded all of this place. Not to mention people, even a mouse, don't think of slipping out."
"You come in with me, and I will personally ask the leaders here why we should detain our brigade commander." After Berkin said that, he led a group of soldiers to stalk towards the police station gate.
Several police officers standing guard at the door were frightened and panicked when they saw a large group of soldiers surrounding the place. They stood on their posts and watched the soldiers in a daze. No one even thought of calling the people inside and notifying them of the surrounding police station.
Belkin took Ozor and Selyosha, surrounded by a group of soldiers, and walked into the police station. In a larger office, more than 20 police officers were busy sitting at their desks. A police lieutenant sitting by the door saw a group of soldiers walking in the corridor, quickly stood up and asked Belkin in a panic: "Comrade Commander, are you doing anything?"
"Where is our brigade commander?" Selyosha rushed forward and grabbed the other party's clothes, and asked viciously: "Where are you locking him up?"
"Brig Commander, what brigade commander?" The police lieutenant said with a blank look: "Comrade Lieutenant, I don't understand what you are talking about?"
"Seryosha, let him go." Although Belkin personally led his troops to surround the 17th branch, he was still like a polite first and then a soldier. He could not use force or force. Therefore, after he asked Seleyosha to let go of the police lieutenant, he asked: "Where is your director? I want to talk to him personally."
The police lieutenant was also a smart man. He saw more than 20 fully armed soldiers standing in the corridor. He guessed that there must be more outside. If he wanted to solve this problem, it would be impossible without the director coming forward. He calmed down and said politely to the highest-ranking Belkin: "Comrade Deputy Battalion-level Political Commissar, please come with me, and I will take you to the director."
The police lieutenant came out of the office and looked at the soldiers crowded with corridors, with a embarrassed expression on his face. Belkin guessed the lieutenant's thoughts and said to Selyosha: "Shelyosha, please take people here. Major Ozor and I will follow this lieutenant to meet the director."
"Comrade Political Commissar." Hearing Belkin say this, Selyosha quickly reminded him: "Will there be any danger if you two go?"
