Chapter 2445
After Petrov looked Asya up and down, he turned to Sokov and said: "General Sokov, I didn't expect that your wife also participated in the battle to defend Stalingrad. This is really surprising.
.”
"Comrade Director," Yakov said next to him, "Asya did not enter Stalingrad only when the situation became favorable to our army in the later stages of the war. Long before the enemy launched an attack on Stalingrad, Misha
When the infantry brigade he led entered Mamayev Heights, Asya was always by his side. By the way, if I remember correctly, the two of them registered their marriage in Stalingrad."
When Yakov said that Asya entered Stalingrad before the battle broke out, Petrov was surprised. When Yakov said that Sokov and Asya registered in Stalingrad
When I got married, my eyes lit up, and I clapped my hands on the table and said excitedly: "That's great, that's great. I've thought about how to modify the script."
"Oh, you plan to modify the script?" Sokov noticed from Petrov's tone that he planned to modify the existing movie script, and asked tentatively: "Is this appropriate?"
"There is nothing inappropriate." Petrov said calmly: "I am the director. It is okay to make some appropriate modifications to the movie script. I will discuss it with the screenwriter later and combine General Sokov and
The story of military doctor Asiya has been added. General Yakov, as long as the script is changed, you will appear in many more scenes."
Although Sokov was curious about how Petrov planned to modify the script, he did not ask easily to avoid affecting the other party's thinking.
"Misha, do you mind if I call you Misha like General Yakov?" Eisenstein's voice sounded next to him.
"I don't mind." Sokov said with a smile: "I can call you Sergey, and you can also call me Misha."
Eisenstein nodded, and then asked the question he was most concerned about: "Misha, I heard a rumor that as early as the second battle of Kharkov, you suggested to your superiors that the Germans might
We will launch an attack on Stalingrad, so we need to prepare for defense in advance. Isn’t that true?”
"Yes, Sergey, I was still an infantry brigade commander at the time." Sokov nodded and replied truthfully: "I noticed that the Germans' next attack target might be Stalingrad, so I reported to him
The superiors issued a warning and I hope they can convey my message to the Supreme Commander himself."
"I'm very curious. Kharkiv, where the battle was going on at the time, was almost 800 kilometers away from Stalingrad, and there were rivers and forests along the way. How could you be so sure that the Germans would attack Stalingrad?"
Eisenstein not only asked his own questions, but also asked Yakov's doubts. Although Yakov tried to find out the basis for Sokov's judgment many times, Sokov failed every time.
They all answered briefly that they were analyzing based on the information they had.
But this time the person who asked this question was Eisenstein. Sokov realized that if he didn't explain clearly, he might make a bad connection between them, so he coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then told everyone about himself.
The basis for this judgment: "The Germans suffered a disastrous defeat under the walls of Moscow. Although they still deployed a large number of troops near Moscow at that time, the German high command should have known that if the surrounding obstacles were not cleared, they would rush to attack Moscow.
, was obviously unwise and might even be defeated again, so they changed their strategy and took advantage of the momentum of their victory in Kharkov and chose to attack eastward. The purpose of such an attack was simple. Once they occupied Moscow
The important cities in the east can completely cut off the connection between Moscow and the Far East and complete the encirclement of Moscow.”…
"Well, you're right." Eisenstein agreed with Sokov's statement, but he went on to ask: "I checked the relevant information. At that time, we believed that the Germans were developing eastward.
The main purpose was to seize oil from the Caucasus, and no one would have thought that the Germans would choose Stalingrad as their main offensive target."
"I have just said that the purpose of the Germans' advance eastward is to use a roundabout way to cut off the connection between Moscow and the Far East. If they really achieve such a goal, then the troops and supplies in the Far East will not be at all
It cannot be transported to the Western Front battlefield, thus effectively weakening our army's war potential." Sokov continued: "For the Germans, Stalingrad is an important transportation hub connecting the north and south of our country. If they occupy Stalingrad,
Le, we can cut off Moscow's connection with the Far East, our country and our allies, and quickly advance to the lower reaches of the Volga River, occupy the Volga River Basin, and open up a convenient channel for attacking the Caucasus and Central Asia.
Stalingrad is one of my country's industrial and resource center cities. Once Stalingrad is occupied, it will weaken our country's ability to manufacture important military products and mine strategic resources such as gold, platinum, titanium, and uranium. In the view of Mustache, This is an important factor affecting the direction of the Soviet-German war. In addition, Stalingrad has important symbolic significance for both disappointed parties. Mustache believes that after the city named after our leader is captured, our people can The confidence to resist was completely shattered.”
"Oh, so that's it." After listening to Sokov's long speech, Yakov was relieved: "No wonder you insisted on leading the troops to Stalingrad. It turned out that it was based on all these signs that the Germans
Conclusion to attack Stalingrad."
"That's right, that's it."
"It's getting late." Petrov said to everyone: "Let's go to eat. My friend came back from the Far East and brought me several bottles of Chinese wine. We can try it while we eat."
Everyone became excited when they learned that they could taste fine wine from China during the meal. Except for Sokov and Yakov, no one present had ever drunk Chinese wine, so they heard that they could taste fine wine from the mysterious Eastern country.
At this time, my heart was full of expectations.
After everyone sat down at a long dining table in a hotel, Petrov took out the Chinese wine given to him by his friend. He opened the wooden box on the table and revealed eight exquisite porcelain bottles. Sokov could clearly see the wine.
There were a few familiar words written on the porcelain bottle: "Fen Liquor" and "Bamboo Leaf Green". After seeing the name of the wine clearly, the corners of his mouth could not help but turn up slightly. He originally thought that the white wine Petrov took out was at best the Northeastern liquor.
Unexpectedly, the knife turned out to be Shanxi's famous wines "Fenjiu" and "Zhuyeqing". It seemed that Petrov's friend was quite interested in getting him such good wines.
"General Sokov," Petrov picked up a bottle of Fenjiu and asked Sokov, "I heard that you just came back from China not long ago. You must know what kind of bar this is?"
When Yakov heard Petrov's question, he was trying to help Sokov smooth things over. After all, they rarely had the opportunity to drink when they were in the Northeast. And the porcelain bottle containing wine in Petrov's hand was his first.
One meeting: "Comrade director, we all know that Misha doesn't like to drink. I think he has never even seen the kind of wine you brought out."…
Petrov was a little disappointed when he learned that Sokov had never seen this kind of wine. He heard from his friends that these were good wines from China, and originally wanted Sokov, a general who had been to the Northeast, to introduce them to the people present.
I didn’t expect that the other party had never seen this kind of wine, which was really disappointing.
But just when Petrov was about to put down the wine bottle in his hand, he saw Sokov stood up, walked to him, and took the wine in the porcelain bottle from his hand. The next moment, everyone listened.
I went to Sokov to introduce this wine to everyone: "Everyone, the Chinese name of this bottle of wine is 'Fenjiu', also known as 'Xinghuacun Wine'. It is a typical representative of light-flavor liquor, produced in Fenyang, Shanxi Province, China.
Xinghua Village, hence the name. This kind of wine is crystal clear, fragrant and fragrant. It is fragrant, refreshing and pure. It mainly uses sorghum as raw material, and uses 'Qingshuqu' made from barley and peas as the saccharification fermentation agent.
It is brewed with high-quality water from ancient wells and deep wells. It adopts the process of 'steaming twice, and solid-state vat separation fermentation'. It is one of China's famous wines."
After everyone heard Sokov tell the name and origin of this wine, they couldn't help showing expressions of astonishment. Especially Yakov, he clearly remembered that since arriving in the Northeast, he spent most of his time with Sokov.
How could he know so clearly when he was with Cove and had never seen him drink? Could it be that the content was deliberately made up to satisfy director Petrov's curiosity?
Just as Yakov was thinking wildly, Petrov picked up another bottle of wine and handed it to Sokov: "What about this bottle of wine, General Sokov?"
"This is 'Bamboo Leaf Green Wine'," Sokov said casually: "Bamboo Leaf Green Wine uses Fenjiu as the 'base wine', retains the characteristics of bamboo leaves, and adds Amomum villosum, red sandalwood, angelica, tangerine peel, clove, and zero fragrance.
, Guangmuxiang and more than ten kinds of precious Chinese medicinal materials, as well as rock sugar, snowflake sugar, egg white, etc., are refined and aged to make the wine calm and warm the stomach, soothe the liver and spleen, promote blood circulation and nourish the blood, smooth the qi and relieve troubles, eliminate food and promote body fluids
It has a variety of functions. The color of this wine is golden and transparent with a hint of greenish green. It has a unique aroma formed by Fenjiu wine and medicinal infusion. It has a mellow aroma, a sweet and slightly bitter taste, mildness, no irritation, and an endless aftertaste."
Sokov's words stunned everyone. They didn't expect that Sokov was so familiar with Chinese wine. After Petrov took back the two bottles of wine in Sokov's hand, he opened the bottle caps
He poured wine for everyone and said: "Listen to what General Sokov said, this is a rare and good wine. Everyone must drink it happily today. We will never return unless we are drunk."
Hearing what Petrov said, Sokov couldn't help but laugh. He had a premonition that as long as he drank the bottles of Fenjiu and Zhuyeqing that Petrov had brought, almost everyone present would be drunk. Don't look at everyone.
In the impression, Russians are fond of drinking and drinking, but in fact their drinking capacity is not good and they are no match for the Chinese.
Vodka is blended with alcohol. When you drink it, you feel very high, but the stamina is not great. You will wake up a few hours after drinking it. However, Chinese wine is different. It has a strong stamina. When you drink it, you may feel normal and feel like you are drunk.
It’s not intoxicating. But after drinking, the wind blows and the alcohol becomes stronger, and then the person becomes drunk and unconscious.…
Seeing Yakov picking up the wine and about to drink it, Sokov quickly grabbed his hand and whispered: "Yasha, this wine has great stamina. Don't drink too much, otherwise I will have to drink it later."
Find someone to carry you back."
Yakov, who originally wanted to drink to his heart's content, couldn't help but hesitate when he heard what Sokov said. After a pause, he whispered to Sokov: "Do you know what the strongest alcohol is?"
"Of course I know." Sokov nodded and said: "A kind of vodka produced in Poland, which is as high as 96 degrees. I heard from people who have drunk this wine that if you take a small sip, you will feel like your stomach has been severely beaten.
It's like a punch to the ground. This kind of wine can be poured directly into the tank fuel tank and used as fuel. I'm afraid most people can't drink it. Even if they want to drink it, they have to blend it with other wines and dilute it before drinking it."
When Sokov and Yakov were talking, Eisenstein, who was sitting opposite them, had already drank all the Fenjiu in his glass, smashed it in his mouth, and said with unfinished meaning: "Good wine, indeed a good friend."
Vladimir, can you let your friend get more of this wine?"
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Petrov shook his head and said: "Sergey, this may not be easy. Although he is in the northeast, there is no such wine where he is. The bottles of wine he gave me
, they were all smuggled in from other parts of China by some smugglers. The quantity was very limited. Because he and I were good friends, he gave me all the wine he got."
"Misha." While Petrov was talking to Eisenstein, Yakov whispered to Sokov: "Director Petrov once drank the 96-degree vodka you just mentioned.
.It is said that after he drank half the bottle, he was immediately sent to the hospital for gastric lavage. He was nursed for a full month before he barely returned to normal."
After hearing this, Sokov couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. He didn't expect Petrov to be so heroic, even daring to drink 96-degree vodka that can be used directly as fuel. He originally thought that after drinking these bottles of Fenjiu and Zhuyeqing, Peter would
Both Roff and Eisenstein were drunk, but now he felt that his judgment was too hasty. Maybe they could still stay sober after drinking.
After some pushing and changing glasses, the Fenjiu and Zhuyeqing that Petrov took out were all drunk. Yakov had been warned by Sokov in advance and was not drunk. The rest of the dinner guests were drunk.
He had to lie down on the table. But Petrov retained the last trace of sobriety and came to Sokov. After standing firm on the edge of the table, he asked: "General Sokov, why are you not drunk?"
