Seeing Lin Hua jump off the tank, Vanya quickly ran over and reported to him: "Comrade company commander, Second Lieutenant Vanya reports to you that we have successfully escorted the prisoners to the designated location. Please give instructions on the next step."
Action."
Lin Hua turned around and pointed to the road not far away, and ordered: "Let these prisoners help us collect supplies on the road."
Hearing Lin Hua's order, Vanya said with some embarrassment: "Comrade company commander, but we don't understand German, so we can't explain these prisoners clearly."
"Don't worry, I have already considered it." Lin Hua waved to Asiya and Ernst in the distance, motioning them to come over. When he saw them trotting over, he said to Vanya: "The interpreter
Leave it to Assia and Ernst to take charge of the matter. Remember, there are weapons and equipment discarded by the Germans everywhere here. Keep an eye on these prisoners and don’t let them shoot you in the back."
"Don't worry, Comrade Company Commander." Vanya said with a serious expression: "I will send special personnel to keep an eye on them, and I will never let them have any opportunity."
When Asiya and Ernst came to him, Lin Hua said to them: "Tell these prisoners to help our soldiers clear the weapons, ammunition and various supplies piled on the road. If they
If they cooperate honestly, I will give them the treatment they deserve as prisoners of war. If they want to use any crooked ideas, hum..." At this point, he sneered twice. "They will all be shot on the spot."
Ernst couldn't help but shudder when he heard the tone Lin Hua used when he mentioned the word "shoot." He quickly glanced at the prisoners next to him and assured Lin Hua: "Don't worry, Mr. Lieutenant.
, I will faithfully translate your words to them. I believe that they will be able to assist you well."
"If they can really be honest, it will be beneficial to both parties." After Lin Hua said this to Ernst with a tigerish face, when he faced Asiya, his face was full of smiles again:
"Asiya, there are many wounded among these prisoners. When you have time later, you can bandage their wounds."
"I know," Asia blushed and pushed Lin Hua away from the tank, urging: "Captain Yakup is waiting for you, hurry up and get there."
When Lin Hua returned to Captain Yakup, the latter handed him his general's coat and said in an unbelievable tone: "Comrade Lieutenant, I didn't expect that you could actually drive a tank, and you could drive it so well."
Skilled. If I didn't know you were an infantryman, I would have thought you were a senior tanker."
Hearing Yakup's praise, Lin Hua thought bitterly: "In order to achieve such skillful driving skills, I spent 100,000 rubles in the tank museum. The tuition is not low."
Seeing Lin Hua put on his military coat, Yakup handed him the Mosin-Nagant rifle and asked curiously: "Comrade Lieutenant, can I ask where you learned to drive a tank?"
p>
"Comrade Captain," Lin Hua said casually in response to Yakup's question: "You may not know that before the war, I worked as a tractor driver on a collective farm. You know, crawler tractors
The driving method of a tractor is similar to that of a tank. Now that I have mastered the skills of driving a tractor, it is not surprising that I can drive a tank."
In this way, Lin Hua's far-fetched reason once again fooled Yakup. He was deeply afraid that the other party would ask questions that were difficult for him to answer, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "Comrade Captain, although there are no Germans in these areas.
Appeared, but we still can't lower our guard. You ask the deputy company commander to take half of the automatic sleds to the other side of the road and be responsible for the security there."
After arranging the security mission, Lin Hua and his men began to clear the materials on the road. Most of the landmines laid by the German army had been cleared by the soldiers led by Vasily. A few landmines that could not be cleared temporarily were also planted nearby.
The branches serve as a warning to prevent soldiers from accidentally stepping on them.
As long as the tanks, trucks, and artillery were abandoned on the road, as long as they were not blocking traffic, the commanders and soldiers ignored them. They focused on cleaning up the ammunition and materials littered on the road, and piled them on the roadside by category.

Just when everyone was busy, two jeeps suddenly arrived. Yakup, who was on guard duty, quickly stepped forward to stop the jeep. After he raised his hand to stop the jeep, he walked to the side of the car, bent down and faced the man sitting inside.
People said: "I'm sorry, it's forbidden to pass here! Which part of the country do you belong to? Take out your IDs!"
The commander sitting in the co-pilot seat immediately turned his head when he heard what Yakup said. When Yakup saw the other person's face clearly, he was suddenly frightened and broke into a cold sweat. He quickly took a step back and raised his hand.
On his forehead, he said with a panic: "Hello, Comrade Commander of the Front Army, Captain Yakup, commander of the 16th Group Army's Automatic Sled Company, is reporting to you. We are performing our mission."
"Performing a mission?!" The person sitting in the co-pilot seat was none other than General Zhukov, commander of the Western Front. After listening to Yakup's report, he looked at the busy crowd in front and asked curiously: "Execute what?"
Mission?"
Yakup replied respectfully: "The Army Headquarters ordered our company to cooperate with the "Istria Company" to clean up here and collect the technical equipment and military supplies discarded by the German army."
"Istra Company?" After Zhukov repeated the number, a smile appeared on his face. He looked at Yakup and asked: "The company commander is Lieutenant Sokov, right?"
"Yes, Comrade General, it's Lieutenant Sokov." Although Yakup didn't understand why the front army commander knew the name of a lieutenant, he still answered truthfully: "According to the order of the group army headquarters, everything here
, he is solely responsible for it."
After hearing this, Zhukov nodded and told Yakup: "Comrade Captain, please call Sokov over. I want to have a chat with him."
Yakup quickly agreed, turned around and ran over to find Lin Hua. He came to Lin Hua's side and said with some excitement: "Comrade Lieutenant, a senior leader wants to see you. Come with me!"
"Big boss?" Lin Hua, who had just picked up a box of ammunition, heard Yakup say this and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Who is it?"
"You'll know when you get there." Yakup glanced at where the jeep was parked, and saw that Zhukov actually opened the door and got out of the car, standing next to the car, looking around with his hands behind his back. He quickly urged: "
Hurry up, Comrade Lieutenant, don’t keep the commander waiting.”
Lin Hua quickly put down the ammunition box in his hand, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and followed Yakup towards where the jeep was parked.
When he was still more than ten meters away from the jeep, Lin Hua had already clearly seen the general wearing a gray otter fur hat. He was not tall, with a big head and a thick chin on his broad and straight shoulders. Although
This was the first time for Lin Hua to see this general, but in later generations, he had seen the image of this general from film and television works countless times. He quickly quickened his pace and passed Yakup who was leading the way.
When he arrived in front of Zhukov, he raised his hand in salute and said with some excitement: "Comrade Commander of the Front Army, Istria Company Commander Lieutenant Sokov reports to you that our company is carrying out the tasks assigned to us by our superiors."

Seeing that Lin Hua recognized him, Zhukov looked him up and down carefully, called him by his real name, and said with emotion: "Mikhail, you and your father look so alike. Your father is our Soviet Union
"Hero, and you," he nodded towards the two medals Lin Hua wore on his chest and said with satisfaction, "it seems you did a good job too!"
Lin Hua didn't know what kind of relationship the father of Misha, whose body he had taken away, had with important figures such as Zhukov, so he did not dare to say anything nonsense. He could only grin and then said in accordance with the regulations: "Serve the Soviet motherland!
”
Zhukov stared at the soldiers who were busy on the road and asked Lin Hua: "Mikhail, how long is the road you want to clean?"
"Report to Comrade General," Lin Hua quickly replied: "We need to clear about seven or eight kilometers of roads. The German army has discarded a large amount of technical equipment and military supplies here. It may take several days to completely clear it."<
/p>
"How come you only have so many people, can you be busy?" Zhukov saw that there were traces of German soldiers among the busy crowd, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Why are there still Germans?"
"We captured the prisoners, Comrade General." Lin Hua said with a smile: "The Army Headquarters has issued orders to the skiing groups and guerrillas operating nearby, asking them to get here as soon as possible and accept my command. I want them to
It’s almost there.”
