Watching Koshkin, Lyudmila, and Vasily walk into the headquarters, Sokov immediately stepped forward and hugged the three of them one by one, saying: "Congratulations, comrades, on your successful elimination of
German airborne group."
Hearing Sokov's compliment, Koshkin smiled sheepishly: "Comrade Commander, it is my responsibility to protect the safety of the headquarters. There is nothing worthy of praise."
"If you eliminated an ordinary airborne group, I probably wouldn't praise you." Sokov said with a smile: "But among the airborne groups you eliminated, there were snipers who came specifically to kill us. From a certain perspective
Say, you are our savior."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Sokov's words came out, the expressions of Koshkin and others changed drastically. Koshkin said in surprise: "Comrade Commander, what did you say? There are snipers in the airborne team?"
"Yes." This time it was Sokov's turn to be surprised: "Didn't you annihilate the German airborne group? Why, no sniper was found among them."
"No." Koshkin shook his head and replied in a positive tone: "The nine German soldiers killed by us were all equipped with MP40 submachine guns. They absolutely cannot be snipers."
After a while, Koshkin asked cautiously: "Comrade Commander, is your information wrong?"
"How is this possible?" Sokov picked up the document on the table and shook it in his hand: "This is a document sent by someone from the front army headquarters. It contains information on female snipers of the German army."
"Comrade Commander," Lyudmila, who had remained silent since entering the door, suddenly said, "Can you let me see the information on female snipers in the German army?"
Without thinking, Sokov handed the information to Lyudmila. Lyudmila only glanced at the photo on the information and exclaimed: "Oh my god, it's her!"
Vasily also came over, took a quick glance at the photo on the file, and couldn't help frowning, "It is indeed her, but her name is not Katarina, but Alia. I can't believe that she is actually from Germany."
Here comes the sniper."
When Sokov heard what the two said, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked: "What, you two know him?"
"Comrade Commander, you don't know something. The reason why we were able to discover the German airborne team's hiding place outside the city was because she took us there." After Ludmila finished explaining, she gritted her teeth and said, "I really didn't expect that.
, she is actually a sniper sent by the Germans."
"How is this possible?" Hearing what Lyudmila said, Trofimenko said doubtfully: "Aren't they in the same group? How could she betray her companions?"
After a brief moment of astonishment, Sokov already figured out the key to the matter: "I understand, I understand why this German female sniper did this."
Everyone's eyes turned to Sokov, eager to know what the answer was.
Seeing that everyone wanted to know the truth, Sokov explained to them: "The reason is very simple. The enemy may have noticed that Vasily was alert, and even took people to search their secret sniper location. In order to prevent the mission from failing, this
A female sniper named Alia came up with a bold plan.
If I guessed correctly, the enemies hiding in the forest outside the city were the team that helped her escape. The reason why she reported the hiding place of the team to Lyudmila and Vasily was to divert our attention.
.
You think, if she leads all the troops responsible for searching the city outside the city, her actions in the city will no longer be hindered. Once the time is right, she will decisively implement her sniper plan."
Sokov's statement was recognized by most people. Especially Koshkin, Lyudmila and Vasily, who had just returned from participating in the battle outside the city. The German airborne team hid in a fortified
The stubborn resistance in the woodsman's wooden house resulted in the death of three members of the guard company and the injury of seven others. If rocket launchers had not been used later to destroy the wooden house, we don't know how much time it would have taken and how many soldiers would have been sacrificed.
But Trofimenko still raised his own questions: "I think this statement is unreliable. Alia should know that as long as our troops are dispatched, no matter how many people they have in the forest, they will not escape the fate of being wiped out by us.
Since we can think of this, she should also think of it, so I think this statement is unreliable."
"Comrade Deputy Commander," Koshkin waited for Trofimenko to finish and then boldly put forward his own opinion: "I think Comrade Commander's analysis should be correct. We found the Germans hiding in the forest.
When we arrived at the forest ranger's wooden house, we encountered stubborn resistance from the other side. If we hadn't sent people back to get rocket launchers and directly destroyed the wooden house, I don't know how long this battle would have lasted and how many soldiers would have been injured or killed."
"Then let me ask you," Dan Trofimenko sneered at Koshkin's statement: "If the person who tipped you off was this German female sniper named Alia, since she was the one who brought the information to you
You are going to the forest, so how can she have time to carry out sniper missions in the city?"
When Koshkin heard this, his pupils shrank violently. He looked at Trofimenko with a shocked expression on his face: "Comrade Deputy Commander, it was indeed Alia who took us to the forest to find the German airborne troops.
group, but she didn’t stay with us all the time, but left halfway through.”
"Left midway?" Trofimenko was surprised by Koshkin's words. He asked in surprise: "When did she leave? And how did she leave?"
"At that time, I saw that the forest house was too strong and that our shooting outside the house would hardly pose a threat to the enemies inside, so I sent someone back to get the rocket launcher." Koshkin explained: "I thought of Alia.
Her name was Catalina. If she continued to stay in the fighting area, her life would be in danger, so she ordered the sergeant who returned to the city to get the rockets and brought her back to the city."
"Where is the sergeant who sent her back to the city?" Trofimenko said impatiently: "Let him in quickly, I want to ask him personally."
The sergeant who escorted Aaliya back to the city was quickly called to the headquarters. Seeing a room full of commanders staring at him intently, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Comrade Sergeant," Sokov asked the sergeant in a friendly tone: "Did you bring the girl who took you to the forest outside the city back to the city?"
"That's right, Comrade Commander." Seeing Sokov's calm attitude, the sergeant no longer felt so nervous.
"Did you talk about anything on the way?"
"Chatted."
"Did she tell you where in the city she works?"
"She said she worked in a café at the corner of Shevchenko Street and asked me to drop her off there."
"She is lying," Koshkin couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this. "She clearly told us that she was an employee of a tailor shop, and she accidentally met the German man when she was delivering clothes to customers outside the city.
people."
"Koshkin, don't interrupt my questioning." After Sokov cast a stern look at Koshkin, he continued to ask the sergeant: "Sergeant, where did she get off the bus last? According to
According to my analysis, the probability of her getting off at Shevchenko Street is very low."
"Comrade Commander, how did you know?" the sergeant said in surprise: "When our car entered the city and passed the first checkpoint, she suddenly said that she had something important and needed to get out of the car immediately. I then ordered
The driver stopped the car, asked her to get out of the car and left."
Based on his own experience, Sokov felt that Alia must have obtained a lot of useful information when talking to the sergeant in the car, so he said to the sergeant in an easy-going tone: "Comrade Sergeant, please tell me
Can you please recount to me the conversation between the two in the car in detail?"
At this point, if the sergeant still didn't understand that there was something wrong with the woman he sent back to the city, he would be a huge fool. After organizing the vocabulary in his mind, he told the conversation between himself and Aaliya along the way.
Sokov repeated it.
After listening, Sokov nodded and did not express any opinion. Instead, he said to the sergeant: "Comrade Sergeant, you have nothing to do here. You can go out first."
After the sergeant left, Sokov said to everyone with a straight face: "Comrades, the matter is very clear. This German female sniper named Alia deliberately killed our troops who were conducting a secret manhunt in the city.
Lure her outside the city to fight with the airborne team that is responding to her, thereby diverting our attention so that she can leisurely implement the next step of her sniper killing plan."
Smirnov interrupted and said: "Comrade Commander, if we stay in the headquarters and don't go out, even if she is an excellent sniper, she will not be able to do anything to us."
"Comrade Chief of Staff," Sokov looked at Smirnov and said with a wry smile: "According to various situation analysis, this Alia is not only very cunning, but also a ruthless woman. In order to complete the task, she will do whatever it takes. This
This can be seen from the fact that she did not hesitate to betray the airborne team that was waiting for her outside the city.
You said that as long as we hide in the headquarters, she can't do anything to us. This statement seems reasonable, but Alia is an unconventional person, even if we want to stay in the headquarters all the time
Even if we don’t go out, she can find a way to drive us out of here.”
But Smirnov obviously didn't believe Sokov's statement: "Comrade Commander, you think too highly of her. I don't believe there is any way she can remove us all from the headquarters."
Get out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dull explosion came from outside. Sokov felt the ground beneath his feet tremble slightly. "No, it's an explosion." Before Sokov could recover, Kosh
Jin had already rushed in front of him, grabbed his arm and pulled him away, saying loudly: "Comrade Commander, move quickly."
Hearing Koshkin's shout, the staff officers in the headquarters also felt that something was wrong. They stepped forward to surround Trofimenko, Samyko, Smirnov and others, and led them outside the headquarters.
run.
When Sokov was pulled into the corridor by Koshkin, he saw billowing black smoke coming from the other end of the corridor, and many soldiers were fleeing from that direction. He reached out and grabbed a man who was running past him.
The soldier asked loudly: "What happened?"
The soldier who was running for his life was suddenly caught by someone. Just when he was about to have a seizure, he saw clearly that the person who caught him was Sokov. He quickly stood at attention and reported to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, it's the kitchen."
There was an explosion."
"What are the casualties?"
"I, I don't know," the soldier replied truthfully: "I happened to be passing by outside the kitchen at that time. First I heard an explosion, and then I saw billowing smoke coming out of the kitchen, so I ran towards this side quickly.
, as for the casualties inside, I don’t know at all.”
"Comrade Commander," Koshkin couldn't help but become anxious when he saw Sokov standing here chatting with the soldiers. He increased the strength in his hands, pulled Sokov and ran outside, and said: "Here
It’s too dangerous, we’d better go out first and then talk.”
At this time, other people in the headquarters also poured out, and Sokov couldn't stand firmly at all. He was squeezed and couldn't help but head towards the exit of the headquarters.
When they were approaching the door, Lyudmila squeezed up from behind and grabbed Sokov's arm, pulled him to the wall, and forcibly prevented him from being squeezed out of the building by the crowd. She said anxiously: "Comrade Commander.
, you are right, Alia does have a way to drive us out of the headquarters, and then she hides outside to snipe the target."
Koshkin, who was still angry about Lyudmila's actions, suddenly woke up when he heard Lyudmila's words. The explosion in the kitchen must have something to do with Alia.
Doesn't dragging Sokov out like this mean to provide a target for Alia who is hiding in the dark?
With the help of Koshkin and Lyudmila, Sokov stayed in the corridor and did not go out. But Trofimenko, Samyko, Smirnov and others were dragged out of the building by the staff.
, prepare to be taken to a safe location.
But at this moment, Smirnov, who was being dragged away by the staff officer, suddenly let out a muffled groan, and then he fell softly. The staff officer reached out to help him, but touched blood on his hand and couldn't help shouting.
Xiao shouted: "Comrade Chief of Staff is injured, Comrade Chief of Staff is injured! Health worker, where is the health worker?"
From the noisy crowd, Sokov heard the staff shouting that the chief of staff was injured. He didn't know whether it was Samyko or Smirnov who was injured. He was eager to go out to check, but was held tightly by Koshkin: "Commander
Comrade Communist, there are German snipers outside, you cannot go out, otherwise you will become their target."
Vasily squeezed in from the outside and said to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, I can see clearly. The window of the attic in the distance is open. Alia should be hiding there for a cold shot. Lyuda," behind him
One sentence is to say to Lyudmila, "We will take people to arrest her now."
After Koshkin learned of Alia's hiding place, he pulled out his pistol and said to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, I will immediately take people to arrest her. If I cannot bring her back to you, I will never come back alive."
."
In this way, Koshkin, Lyudmila, and Vasily led more than 20 temporarily summoned soldiers toward the attic where Alia was hiding.
After they left, the commanders and fighters who escaped from the headquarters knew that there were German snipers outside, so they stopped running around and found places to hide themselves to avoid becoming the next sniper target.
