The group of people arrived at the new headquarters located at the landing site on the right bank. It was a busy scene here. The communications soldiers were busy setting up antennas and pulling telephone lines, and the staff were busy nailing maps to the wall and compiling battle reports.
After Samek entered the door, he clapped his hands several times. After attracting everyone's attention, he slowly glanced at the people present and said: "Comrades, we have a... new person here.
Commander Lieutenant General Trofimenko.”
Since the time Sokov was injured coincided with the timeline of the transfer of the headquarters, most members of the headquarters did not know that he was injured. At this moment, hearing Samyko say this, many staff officers and communications soldiers looked at each other with expressions on their faces.
There was a confused look on their faces. They didn't know why a new commander came.
"Comrade Chief of Staff," a staff officer tentatively asked Sameko: "Do you want to say deputy commander?"
Samyko gave the staff officer a sharp look and said with a straight face: "Lieutenant General Trofimenko is not serving as deputy commander, but as commander."
"What about the commander, General Sokov?"
"On his way to the front, Comrade Commander was attacked by a German bomb and was seriously injured." Sameko said with a heavy heart: "Now he has been rushed to Moscow."
As soon as Sameko finished speaking, the headquarters immediately went into chaos: "What, Comrade Commander is seriously injured?"
"Yeah, when did this happen? Why didn't we know?"
"Is it life-threatening?..."
Facing the chaos in the headquarters, Sameko remained silent, patiently waiting for everyone to calm down again.
After finally waiting for the crowd's discussion to subside, Trofimenko felt that it was time for him to stand up and say a few words, so he took two steps forward, coughed heavily, cleared his throat and said: "Comrades, you
OK! I am your new commander, Lieutenant General Trofimenko. I hope that in the coming days, we can cooperate with each other to better attack the enemy."
After greeting the members of the headquarters, Trofimenko said to Samyko: "Comrade Chief of Staff, please give me the original combat plan, and I will study how to modify it."
After hearing that Trofimenko said he wanted to see the battle plan, Samyko quickly called a confidential officer responsible for keeping the documents and said to him: "Comrade confidential officer, go and bring us our original battle plan."
Commander, take a look."
The confidential officer quickly brought the battle plan. Samyko flipped through a few pages and handed it to Trofimenko: "Comrade Commander, this is our original battle plan. Please take a look at it!"
Trofimenko took over the battle plan, looked around, and said to Samyko: "Comrade Chief of Staff, it's too noisy here. Can you find me a quiet place?"
Sameko had just arrived here, so he didn't know where it was quiet. He could only call a staff officer and told him: "Comrade staff, help comrade commander find a quiet place."
"There is a newly cleaned room nearby for you to rest at night." The staff officer looked at Sameko and said, "You can ask Comrade Commander to go there."
After the staff officer took Trofimenko away, Samyko called Lunev to the corner, knocked on the table angrily and said: "Comrade Military Commissar, this new commander has just taken office, and he will overthrow the previous commander."
The battle plan is simply outrageous."
Although Lunev accompanied him throughout the whole process, he did not say a word. Now Trofimenko is the commander of the group army. As a military commissar, although he has the right to deny his proposal, the other party has just taken office. In order to ensure that he is in the army
Although he is authoritative, he cannot contradict him, lest others laugh at him.
"Comrade Chief of Staff," Lunev knew very well that even if Sokov returned to the 27th Army in the future, he would have to wait for a long time. Before his return, he and Samyko had to cooperate with Trot
Fimenko's work, in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, he kindly reminded Samyko: "We will need to cooperate with the new commander's work for a long time in the future. It is better not to say anything casually that is not conducive to unity.
Already."
He looked to the left and right and saw that the staff and communications soldiers were busy with their work. They probably did not hear Samyko's complaints. He added: "Besides, General Trofimenko is now our superior. For superiors,
We must carry out the orders given, whether they are correct or not, rather than discuss them here."
"Okay, Comrade Military Commissar, no matter what order the new commander gives, I will carry it out." Samyko was just complaining at first. After hearing what Lunev said, he had no choice but to compromise. But he still
He asked reluctantly: "Tell me, when will Comrade Commander's injury be healed?"
Runev saw Sokov being carried onto the plane with his own eyes. Seeing that the other party was still unconscious, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. When he heard Samyko's question, he hesitated for a long time, and then answered cautiously: "From now on."
Judging from the situation at the airport just now, the commander's condition is not ideal, and he probably won't be able to return to the army before the New Year."
After hearing this, Samek sighed and said helplessly: "That's such a pity."
"Although he has left us temporarily, I believe that sooner or later he will return to the 27th Army." Seeing Samyko's depressed look, Lunev comforted him and said: "During his absence,
Here, we still need to achieve greater results and establish more glorious achievements, so that we will not live up to his expectations of us."
When Samyko heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He knew very well that the 27th Army without Sokov would become very different from before, especially Trofimenko's thinking and Soko's.
We are not at the same latitude at all. It may not be long before the invincible 27th Group Army becomes the unit with the lowest record in the entire front army.
Lunev was not as complicated as Samyko thought. He was very concerned about the fighting south of the landing site. After Samyko's words came to an end, he immediately asked: "Comrade Chief of Staff, how is the offensive situation of the 254th and 300th Divisions?
Also, has Guchakov’s infantry brigade now merged with the battalion in Pavlish?”
"The German defense line has been broken through by the troops of the 254th and 300th Divisions and is retreating to the south." Samyko replied: "The second and third battalions of the Guchakov Brigade have also broken through the German defense line.
, successfully arrived outside Pavlish City, and are engaged in a fierce battle with the stubborn defenders. If everything goes well, after dark, they should be able to join forces with the first battalion in the reservoir area of the city."
