"In the battle to defend Moscow, thousands of commanders and soldiers have died." Sokov sighed softly and said regretfully: "In order to defend our great motherland, countless young soldiers have sacrificed their precious lives."
The secretary got up and walked to Sokov, lowered his voice and said, "Comrade Colonel, this is the only relic of Director Peter's son. He takes it out every day to see it. Once when I went in, I forgot to knock on the door and saw him holding this military coat and crying silently."
Sokov's gaze quickly dimmed. He quickly turned his head to look at the closed door, and turned to the secretary and said, "Comrade Secretary, please tell Director Peter that we will avenge his son and attack the invaders of Faxi Temple." After that, he nodded to the secretary, turned around and walked out of the office with the soldiers waiting aside.
"Comrade Commander!" As soon as he walked out of the office, a corporal immediately asked, "Where will we go next?"
Although Sokov could not call out the name of the corporal, he knew that he was the squad leader of the 7th squad, so he stopped and said, "Squad leader, I just received a call from the commander and asked me to rush to the headquarters immediately."
"Go to the headquarters?" The seventh squad leader glanced at the soldiers beside him and said with some embarrassment: "Comrade Commander, we only have five people. If we encounter the enemy on the road, it may be difficult to resist."
"Don't worry, Squad Leader 7." Sokov said disapprovingly: "From the factory building to the Army Command, it is only two or three kilometers away. This area is still under the control of our army. Even if we encounter an enemy, as long as we can hold on for a few minutes, nearby troops will come to support us."
Sokov and his group left the factory building, passed through the factory area, left the factory gate to the east, and headed towards the direction of the Group Army Command. Seeing that they were only two or three hundred meters away from the headquarters, there were suddenly dense gunfires in front.
As soon as he heard the gunshot, Sokov instinctively yelled: "Secret!" Then he jumped into the crater on the side of the road, put the gun on the edge of the pit, and observed the surroundings vigilantly.
"Comrade Commander," said the seventh squad leader who followed him to jump into the trench and heard the gunshots coming from not far away, and said in a panic: "Listen to the gunshots, it seems that the direction of the headquarters was attacked."
Because the headquarters was blocked by the river bank, Sokov could only hear gunshots and explosions, as well as the rising fire and smoke, but could not see anything. He felt that the seventh squad leader was right, and the headquarters must have been attacked. There was danger in Cuikov. As a subordinate, he must not stand by and watch, and he must help.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and said to the squad leader seventh: "The headquarters is in danger. We cannot stand by and watch, and we all come with me." After that, he jumped out of the bullet crater with his gun.
The seventh squad leader heard the gunshots and explosions in the distance, and guessed that the enemy must be quite large. He originally wanted to continue hiding here to observe the situation, but Sokov rushed up with his gun without saying a word. The division commander rushed up. He, a guard, could not lie in the crater and remained motionless. He could only curse Sokov in his heart, while gritting his teeth and climbing out of the crater and rushing up behind him.
When they rushed to the river bank, they saw more than a dozen soldiers below, under the command of a major, shooting at a group of people wearing Soviet uniforms opposite. Sokov was stunned when he saw both sides wearing Soviet uniforms, but soon realized that one of them must be disguised by the Germans.
Before he could tell which side was his own person or which side was German, he heard the seventh squad leader muttering, "My God, why did you fight with your own people?"
"Squad Leader Seven, haven't you seen it yet?" Sokov immediately said with anger when he heard the Squad Leader Seven said: "Did the Germans disguised themselves as our army and tried to attack the headquarters?"
The seventh squad leader, who was unruly, asked in a panic: "What should we do?"
"Go up and help us to destroy our own enemies."
"But how do we know which side is our own people and which side is German?" The seventh squad leader said hesitantly: "If we fight with our own people, it will be troublesome."
Sokov pointed his hand at the warrior who was approaching him and said, "Squad Leader 7, the place behind the warriors here is the Army Command. Tell me, which side is the enemy and which side is our own people?"
After Sokov reminded him, the seventh squad leader immediately came to his senses. If the troops approaching his side were disguised by the German army, they would definitely leave a small number of people to restrain the troops on the side, and then the rest rushed directly to the headquarters.
After distinguishing the enemy and us, Sokov led several subordinates and quickly approached the major's troops with the help of trenches and craters. Not long after they ran, the major noticed that a small team came from behind. He thought it was the enemy, but when he saw clearly that these people were not shooting at him, he judged that they were his own people.
"Hey, Sergeant!" The major poked out half of his body from the crater and shouted loudly: "Come to me quickly!"
"Sergeant?!" Sokov was stunned when he heard the major shouting. He thought to himself that there was only one corporal in the seventh squad leader, and the rest were privateers. Where did the sergeant appear? With such a diligence, his pace could not help but slow down a little.
Seeing Sokov and the others slowed down, the major was a little anxious: "Hey, I said Sergeant, I told you to come over quickly, what are you doing there?"
Hearing the major yelling, Sokov looked down at the military coat he was wearing and couldn't help but laugh. He was wearing Peter's son's military coat. No wonder the other party recognized him as a sergeant. However, the war was urgent, and he didn't care about explanation, so he quickly rushed into the trenches in front of him and came to the major.
The major glanced at Sokov, pointed his hand at the opposite position, and said in a commanding tone: "Sergeant, opposite are a group of enemies in our uniforms. They tried to touch our headquarters, but were discovered by us halfway. I order you now, immediately take your people up and destroy them all."
Sokov looked at the distance between the two positions. It was about eighty meters. Although there were many craters in the middle, most places were open and unobstructed. Such terrain made him lead five soldiers to charge, which was simply a death sentence. Sokov shook his head and retorted: "Sorry, Comrade Major, I cannot execute your order. The distance between the two positions is so far, many areas are exposed to the enemy's firepower. If I led people to charge, we would probably die before we could rush to the enemy."
Unexpectedly, the major was unmoved after hearing this, and instead said in a more stern tone: "Sergeant, this is my order. Do you want to disobey the battlefield?" As he said that, the pistol in his hand gestured towards Sokov intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that if Sokov did not execute his orders, he would implement battlefield discipline without hesitation.
"Major!" Sokov said unmovedly: "If it was the correct order, I would definitely execute it without hesitation. But the order you gave was to send us to die. Sorry, I will reply you again, I cannot execute your wrong order, and let my warrior die in vain."
Seeing that Sokov still disobeyed his orders, the major was furious and wanted to shoot Sokov immediately. However, when he saw the soldiers standing behind Sokov, they all pointed their guns at him, he felt guilty. He lowered his guns and asked angrily: "Which part of you are?"
Sokov did not know the other party, so he did not reveal his identity. He simply said: "We are from the 41st Guard Division and went to the headquarters to execute the order."
"Come!" The major turned his head and called a soldier, and told him, "Go and call Lieutenant Samoilov, and tell him that several soldiers from the Guard Division did not obey my orders and asked him to come and discipline him quickly."
When Sokov saw the major sending someone to call Samoilov, he no longer paid attention to him, but lay in the trenches and looked at the opposite side. He saw that there were more than a dozen Germans disguised as Soviet troops in the trenches opposite. They might have little ammunition. Seeing that the Soviet troops did not shoot, they also stopped shooting.
Samoilov soon followed the Major's subordinates, and he asked loudly, "Major Gladshev, are you doing anything?"
"Comrade Lieutenant," Major Gladshev said dissatisfiedly: "Come here and see if you know these guard divisions, they dare to repeatedly violate my orders!"
Samoilov came to the major, looked at Sokov only once, straightened his body regardless of danger, and asked in surprise: "Comrade Commander, why did you come here?"
"I came here after receiving a call from the commander." Sokov thought that he had sent Samoilov to escort the first battalion commander over. There should be more than a dozen soldiers around him, but at this moment, no one could see anyone. Could it be that he was sacrificed? "Comrade Lieutenant, why are you the only one and your subordinates?"
"They are all staying in the headquarters at this moment, responsible for protecting the safety of the leaders of the group army." Samoilov replied respectfully: "It was Major Gladshev who sent someone to find me, and I came to see who was so brave to disobey the battlefield."
"Comrade Lieutenant!" Seeing that Samoilov looked respectful to Sokov, Gladshev couldn't help but ask curiously: "Who is he?"
