Marshal Chernyakhovsky returned from the suburbs the next day and met with Sokov.
"Hello, General Sokov!" Chernyakhovsky shook Sokov's hand and said enthusiastically: "The last time you went to Khabarovsk for a meeting, I happened to be admitted to the hospital because of a recurrence of an old injury.
I went to the hospital without meeting you. This should be our first meeting."
"You are right, Comrade Marshal." Sokov said respectfully, "This is indeed the first time we have met."
Then, Chernyakhovsky went to shake hands with Lukin: "Hello, Comrade Lukin. I have heard about your deeds. You are an amazing person. There are very few people I admire, but you
It happens to be one of them."
Hearing Chernyakhovsky's comments about himself, Lukin said modestly: "Comrade Marshal, you are very grateful. I am just fulfilling my duty as a soldier. It is nothing special. If it were anyone else, they would
It can all be done.”
"That's not necessarily true." Chernyakhovsky shook his head and said, "During the Great Patriotic War, many generals unfortunately became prisoners of the Germans for various reasons. Some of them were just like you.
He behaves tenaciously, but there are also despicable weaklings, such as Vlasov..."
Hearing Chernyakhovsky mention Vlasov, Lukin couldn't help but ask: "Comrade Marshal, I heard that before our army attacked Prague, an uprising broke out in the city, and Vlasov led
The puppet troops were on the battlefield anyway, assisting the rebels in wiping out the SS in the city, right?"
"Yes, it does happen." Chernyakhovsky did not deny what Vlasov had done. He went on to say: "He did it because he saw Mustache commit suicide.
, the Germans also announced their surrender, knowing that if they continued to fight, they would not be able to escape the fate of destruction. His so-called counterattack was just a speculative act to keep himself alive. Even if he really defeated the Germans,
There is no way to escape his guilt."
"It is said that he surrendered to the Americans with his puppet army in June." Lu Jin continued to ask: "Now that he has fallen into the hands of the Americans, if we want to deal with him, it may not be so easy.
It’s easy.”
"According to the agreement signed between us and Britain and the United States in Yalta, the British and American troops are obliged to return captured Soviet citizens, especially prisoners of war wearing German uniforms, to us," Chernyakhovsky said: "I believe
It won't take long for Vlasov and his minions to be extradited and put on trial."
Sokov looked at Yakov without saying anything. He didn't understand what the other person meant by asking this question.
"Misha, there is one more thing that I didn't have time to tell you." Yakov said: "While you were still on the train, the front army headquarters directly issued an order to me, asking us to start the investigation within a week.
Dismantling of factory equipment in Tiexi Industrial Zone.”
Hearing what Yakov said, Captain Feng couldn't help but be overjoyed. Sujiatun is a suburb outside the urban area, and although Xiaoheyan is still relatively close to the suburbs, it is an urban area after all. After saying a few good things in a row, he continued
Asked: "Comrade Chief of Staff, I wonder what the other thing is?"...
Seeing that Yakov seemed to be ready to continue asking questions, Lu Jin said: "Comrade Chief of Staff, I think you should leave it to me to arrange the dinner."
"Captain Feng, I have two things to inform you." Yakov said into the microphone: "First, the commander has decided to move the Eighth Route Army's garrison from the current Sujiatun to Xiaoheyan."
"Don't worry, Comrade Marshal." This time it was Yakov who said, "We will definitely assist General Kortun in his daily work."
After seeing off Chernyakhovsky, Sokov breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Lukin and Yakov: "I think it is inappropriate for the Eighth Route Army troops to be stationed in Sujiatun.
It's too far away from the city and supplies are inconvenient, so we should move them to another place as soon as possible."
"General Sokov," Chernyakhovsky continued: "Both Fengtian and Xinjing are large cities with a population of over one million. The position of garrison commander is of great importance. The rank of the officer who holds this position must not be too low.
Otherwise, how can we convince the public? Don't you think so?"
Yakov put down the phone and said to Sokov: "Misha, I have asked Captain Feng to convey your wishes to the Eighth Route Army."
Although Sokov had been hoping that Chernyakhovsky would leave the city as soon as possible, when he actually heard that he was leaving, he was surprised: "Comrade Marshal, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Why can't you?
If you stay a few more days, Fengtian has a lot of delicious food, you should at least find a chance to taste it before leaving."
"Very good, very good." Chernyakhovsky said with a smile: "I am here today to say goodbye to you. I will leave this city soon."
"Then how do you plan to arrange the banquet tonight?"
"Misha," hearing what Sokov said, Yakov quickly reminded him: "This is an order issued by Marshal Chernyakhovsky, saying that we have signed an agreement with the Chinese side, and we can only treat Fengtian.
This big city was handed over to the Kuomintang Army, but not to the Eighth Route Army."
"Tonight's banquet is all about eating, not dancing." Sokov waved his hands and said: "There is no way to talk about business at a ball-like dinner. I plan to just sit with a group of people around the long dining table and eat the delicacies on the table.
Let’s eat some food while chatting. The format should be simple, the dishes should be rich, and the guests and hosts should enjoy themselves as much as possible.”
"I agree." This time Yakov said before Lukin: "After all, in the next period of time, we need to carry out all-round cooperation with them, get to know their commanders early, and carry out the next work.
It’s very beneficial.”
"Wait a minute, Yasha." Sokov felt something was wrong, and quickly raised his hand to interrupt Yakov who was about to continue, and asked in surprise: "You said we want to carry out all-round cooperation with the Eighth Route Army. You
Can you explain to me what the phrase 'all-round' means?"
"I agree with Misha." As soon as Sokov finished speaking, Lujin agreed: "Although we have many troops in Fengtian City, due to the language barrier, many unpleasant things happened with the local residents.
.I think it is appropriate if the Eighth Route Army, which arrived yesterday, is allowed to enter Fengtian City and help us maintain order in the city.”…
"Comrade Commander plans to hold a banquet at the Imperial Hotel tonight to entertain several key commanders of the Eighth Route Army. Please inform them to come to the banquet." After Yakov said this, he raised his hand and glanced at the time, and continued: "
The time is seven o'clock tonight, so don't let them be late."
"Hello, General Yakov." Hearing Yakov's voice, Captain Feng immediately asked respectfully: "What can I do for you?"
"very good."
Yakov saw Sokov's doubts and quickly explained: "I just want to find out, in addition to eating and drinking, will there be dancing at the dinner? If there is going to be dancing, I will call now to arrange for some female soldiers to come over
."
"His name is Kolton Stankovitch, and his military rank is major general." Chernyakhovsky said: "He came with me from the Far East Headquarters, and his position is Marshal Vasilevsky himself.
Appointed.”
Knowing that Sokov planned to entertain several key commanders of the Eighth Route Army, Captain Feng's voice trembled with excitement: "Don't worry, Comrade Chief of Staff, I will convey your intention to my comrades,
We will definitely arrive on time."
Following Sokov's instructions, Yakov greeted the officer guarding the prisoners of war and then called Captain Feng: "Captain Feng, this is Yakov."
When Lu Jin heard this, he couldn't help laughing. He had long noticed that Sokov seemed to be particularly hostile to the islanders, but he didn't expect that he didn't regard the little devil's life as his life. It is estimated that after the equipment in the Tiexi factory is dismantled,
More than half of those little Japs who surrender will be killed or wounded.
Chernyakhovsky was very satisfied with Sokov's attitude: "General Koltun is new here, he is not familiar with Fengtian, and there are not many people around him. I will need you in the future."
Duoduo helped him with his work."
Seeing that Sokov and Lukin had unified opinions, Yakov could not say anything more. He could only nod his head and said: "Okay, Misha, then we will readjust their positions." He walked to the wall and said,
After looking up at the map for a while, he turned to Sokov and said, "Why don't we let them move to the edge of the river. It is relatively close to the city, so they can assist us in launching wars and maintaining law and order in the city."
"I think it's okay." Sokov knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he didn't object to Yakov's proposal. After all, it was a good sign that the Eighth Route Army troops could enter the city. He thought for a while and continued:
"If possible, we would invite several commanders of the Eighth Route Army to come over for a meal and get to know each other, which will also be beneficial to future work."
"General Sokov, thank you for your kindness." Chernyakhovsky waved his hand and said: "I will go to many cities in the future. When I have the opportunity in the future, I will come to Fengtian to taste what you said.
of delicious food.”
"I don't know." Yakov shook his head and said, "But since it is an order from a superior, we can't ask why, we can only execute it unconditionally. And Marshal Malinovsky specifically said hello to dismantle the equipment.
, mainly completed by the surrendered Kwantung Army prisoners. But what I am worried about now is that we do not have so many tools and equipment, and if we carry out the disassembly work in a hurry, accidents may occur and cause personnel losses.”…
Sokov looked at Chernyakhovsky, Lukin and Yakov, and thought to himself: In real history, Chernyakhovsky and Yakov are both dead.
But now, because of his appearance, their fate has been changed. Yakov did not die in the German concentration camp, but lived well and even became a general; and Chernyakhovs
Key did not die before the Supreme Command promoted him to marshal, and he was able to put on the marshal's uniform as he wished.
"Yasha, rules are dead, people are alive." Sokov said with a straight face: "Who knows when the Chinese national army will be able to arrive outside Fengtian City. Instead of waiting like this, it is better to let the Eighth Route Army move in first.
In the city, let them assist our army in maintaining law and order. I wonder what you think of it?"
"Comrade Marshal," Sokov said, remembering that he still didn't know the name of the new garrison commander. "I wonder what the new garrison commander's name is?"
Thinking that when the dismantling work was in progress, many damn little devils would be injured or even die due to various accidents. Sokov's inner resistance suddenly became much less intense: "Yasha, since the order given to us by our superiors is to dismantle the iron...
For the equipment in the West Factory, we just need to execute the order. As for the possible casualties, it is not within the scope of our consideration. Anyway, if Tianhuang was not a kid who ordered the surrender earlier, it is estimated that there are some kiddies involved in dismantling the equipment.
Many people are dead. Let them work overtime and figure out their own solutions if they don’t have tools. I don’t want their casualty figures, I just want their daily work progress.”
"What, start dismantling the equipment within a week?" Sokov said with shock: "Why is it so urgent?"
Sokov originally wanted to discuss with Chernyakhovsky to see whether Bezikov could continue to serve as the garrison commander, but after hearing this, he knew that Bezikov was completely out of the question. Even Bezikov
My husband is from the Kremlin, but he is just a major. In the competition for the position of garrison commander, he will definitely not be able to compete with a major general.
"General Sokov," Chernyakhovsky, after chatting with Lukin and Yakov for a while, said to Sokov: "I am here this time to inform you that our country signed a
According to the new agreement, big cities like Fengtian and Xinjing can only be handed over to the Nationalist Army under the command of the Chairman, and absolutely cannot be handed over to the Eighth Route Army. Because of this, I asked the newly appointed garrison commander to issue an order prohibiting the Eighth Route Army.
Enter Fengtian and arrange them to Sujiatun on the outskirts."
"Yes, yes, Comrade Marshal, you are right." After hearing what Chernyakhovsky said, Sokov could only echo casually: "It was because I did not think carefully at the time that I made the inappropriate decision in a hurry.
s arrangement."
"That's right." Sokov thought that Lu Jin should be more experienced in arranging these things than Yakov, so he was inclined to leave the preparation work to Lu Jin. "I think this matter should be left to
It is most appropriate for Comrade Deputy Commander to make arrangements."
"Okay then." Yakov was still having a headache about preparing for the banquet. Since Lu Jin took the initiative to ask for help, he naturally got what he asked for, so he said along the way: "Since Comrade Deputy Commander is willing to do these preparations, then today
It’s up to you to arrange the dinner party tonight.”
"No problem." Lu Jin said confidently: "Don't worry, everyone should be satisfied with tonight's banquet."
