"Hello, Captain Brisky." Seeing that the captain was unusually thin, Sokov knew that he had suffered a lot, so he took the initiative to shake hands with the captain and asked with concern: "How many people are there in your company?"
?"
Briski quickly replied: "Reporting to the major, there are still more than 150 troops under my command."
"More than one hundred and fifty people?" After hearing the data Briski said, Sokov couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "There are so many people in your company, they are almost all a reinforced company.
."
"Actually, two-thirds of them are not my subordinates, but troops that were defeated by the Germans in the Battle of Kharkov. I just took them in." After Briski explained the origin of the troops,
, looked at Sokov and asked: "Comrade Major, I would like to know, do you have any health workers in your army?"
"Yes, there is a health team in the camp, with more than 20 doctors and hygienists." Sokov nodded: "What? Captain, are there any wounded in your company?"
"Yes, there are wounded. There are about seventy people, and more than twenty of them are seriously injured." Briski said with some embarrassment: "When we had the largest number of people, there were more than two hundred people. Due to the lack of medical treatment and medicine,
During this period, more than fifty wounded people have died."
"Comrade Captain," Belgin heard this and couldn't help but interrupt and asked: "Then why don't you return to our own people, so that the wounded in the team can receive timely treatment."
"Where are our own people, but where are they?" Brisky said with a wry smile, "Since the troops were dispersed, we have lost contact with our superiors. There are enemy troops to the east, west, south, and north.
There were a few surviving friendly troops who tried to return to our defense area. But their final fate was either annihilated by the Germans or captured. Therefore..."
"So you can only stay in this forest and swamp and resign yourself to fate?" Sokov interrupted Brisky and asked sternly: "Also, I estimate that when our troops enter this area,
You guys noticed it. Captain, I want to ask you, why didn't you take the initiative to send someone to contact us?"
In response to Sokov's question, Brisky was silent for a long time before answering: "Comrade Major, to be honest, I dare not contact you. After all, we have long lost contact with our superiors. In this inaccessible forest,
If an army suddenly appears in a swamp area, even if they know it is one of their own, everyone will still be wary."
"Comrade Captain," Sokov didn't want to get entangled with Brisky on such a boring issue, but changed the topic and asked: "My troops were ordered to come here to perform a mission. I don't know if your people can cooperate with us."
?"
"Comrade Major, as long as you can help us place the wounded." Briskey said cautiously: "My troops will obey your command."
Seeing that the other party was willing to obey his command conditionally, Sokov did not hesitate and immediately said to Belkin: "Comrade Belkin, you will take a few health workers and enough medicines with the captain to his hospital later.
The troops will treat the wounded. If there are particularly serious injuries, they will be sent to the rear immediately."
Upon hearing Sokov's arrangement, Brisky showed a look of gratitude on his face. He raised his hand and saluted Sokov, and said excitedly: "Thank you, thank you, comrade major. On behalf of all the wounded,
,Thank you!"
Christopher, who brought Briski here, waited until Belkin and Briski left and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Comrade Battalion Commander, is this appropriate? You know, the number of medicines we carry is limited.
All are given to their wounded. Once our soldiers are injured in battle, there will be no medicine to treat them."
Hearing Christopher's worries, Sokov couldn't help but laugh: "Comrade Second Lieutenant, your position is not high, and you have a lot of things to worry about. Let me ask you, what mission are we here to perform?"<
/p>
"Assist General Lidyukov's 5th Tank Army and cut off the German lines of communication." Every commander and fighter in the battalion knew the mission to be performed by the unit this time, so when Sokov asked this question, Chris
Dov answered without hesitation: "To ensure that our army's frontal attack can crush the German army's combat intentions."
"Comrade Second Lieutenant, since you already know that the mission of our battalion is to cut off the enemy's communication lines." Sokov waited for Christopher to finish speaking, then asked him with a smile: "Those transport convoys that were destroyed by us, those that were occupied
Can’t we find the medicines needed by the wounded at the transfer station?"
Christopher was not an idiot. After listening to Sokov's words, he immediately understood why the other party was so generous in asking Briski's troops to provide medicines. "I understand, comrade battalion commander. Since medicines can be seized from the enemy,
Then even if all the medicines we carry are given to the wounded in Briski's unit, it will not have any impact on us. On the contrary, we can also obtain a group of soldiers with rich combat experience and familiarity with the terrain, which will have a great influence on our next actions.
, is very helpful."
"Not bad, not bad." After Sokov waited for Christopher to finish speaking, he praised him with a smile and said, "It seems that after you became the reconnaissance platoon leader, you have gained a lot of knowledge and your view of the problem has become more and more comprehensive.
Work hard, and when the reconnaissance platoon is promoted to a reconnaissance company in the future, I will personally appoint you as the company commander."
Early the next morning, Belkin brought Briski back to the command post. Seeing both of them looking haggard, Sokov asked in surprise: "Why, didn't you get any rest last night?"
”
After Belkin sat down, he said a little tiredly: "There are too many wounded, and the comrades in the health team have been busy all night. But fortunately, they have been dealt with, and all the seriously injured have been arranged to be evacuated."
Sokov glanced at Belgin, then at Briski, and then asked: "You two have been busy all night, and you must be very tired. Why don't you just rest here for a day and come back to catch up with the troops tomorrow."<
/p>
"No, no, no." Regarding Sokov's kindness, Belkin immediately waved his hand and refused: "My body can still hold on, so the troops should set off as planned."
"What about you, Comrade Captain?" Sokov asked Briski, "What do you think about whether to stay here or join us in the battle?"
"Comrade Major, please allow my troops to join the battle with you." Briski said resolutely: "My people are outside the command post, and they are willing to accept your command just like me."
Sokov quickly looked out the door and saw three rows of soldiers standing in the open space outside, but there were only about thirty people. Briski saw the confusion in Sokov's eyes and quickly explained to him: "Originally, the company
There are eighty uninjured soldiers, but now some of them have carried the seriously wounded back to the rear, while some are staying in the camp to take care of the wounded, so there are only more than thirty people left who can participate in the battle."
He was deeply afraid that Sokov would think he had brought few people, so he specifically added: "Comrade Major, despite the small number of people we have, these soldiers are veterans with great combat experience. Their performance on the battlefield will definitely not be the same."
You are disappointed."
Sokov knew very well in his heart that the people brought by Briski must be elites, so he nodded and said: "Comrade Captain, from now on, you will be officially reorganized into a company of four platoons, with you as the platoon leader."
Duty. Now, take your people and report to Captain Vanya immediately."
