After listening to Sokov's report, the first thing Chuikov said was: "I want the air force too. However, the strength of the German Air Force far exceeds ours, and the air control over the city is currently in their hands."
, our air force currently does not have the ability to compete with them. Therefore, you can only find a way to solve the air defense problem in the factory area on your own."
Hearing what Chuikov said, Sokov's heart suddenly went cold. Before he could speak, Chuikov had already guessed what was on his mind: "Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, I know you must be very disappointed at the moment, right?"
More than just disappointment, it was simply despair! Sokov thought to himself, let alone the large-scale bombing carried out by the Germans, even if there were only two or three bombers, they would not be able to be dealt with by only four anti-aircraft guns. But what was he thinking?
Chuikov responded with something else: "Comrade Commander, since our superiors are unable to provide us with air assistance, we can only find another way to solve the problem."
"That's right, Lieutenant Colonel Sokov. The current group army headquarters is also in a difficult situation. People are constantly asking for help from everywhere, making us exhausted." Chuikov was very satisfied with Sokov's answer, and he lost no time in giving it.
He put on a tall hat and said, "I think with your wisdom, you can definitely solve this problem."
After making the call, Sokov spread his hands towards the people sitting across from him and said helplessly: "Commander Chuikov said that he is currently unable to provide us with air support. We can only rely on our existing strength.
To deal with enemy air strikes."
"But, how do we solve it?" Zinchenko said with a grimace: "Although we can burn old tires and create thick smoke to interfere with the sight of German pilots, the smoke cannot dissipate forever. When the smoke dissipates,
We will still be bombed by the Germans here."
"Then what should we do?" Cousteau knew the situation here better than the deputy director. He continued: "Now the women's anti-aircraft artillery battalion only has four anti-aircraft guns left. How can it deal with enemy aircraft? It seems that,
Our factory building cannot be saved."
"I'm going to talk to Lieutenant Ulanova," Zinchenko stood up and said to Sokov: "Explain to them the importance of defending the assembly workshop building, so that they have the courage to fight German aircraft in order to defend the factory building.
Fight bravely.”
After Sokov saw what Zinchenko said, neither Borshak nor Cousteau objected, as if such a statement was a matter of course, so they stopped Zinchenko who was about to walk out: "Comrade Deputy Director
, please wait."
Zinchenko stopped, turned to look at Sokov, and asked somewhat unexpectedly: "Do you have anything else to add, Lieutenant Colonel Sokov?"
"Comrade Deputy Factory Director," Sokov stopped Zinchenko because he was dissatisfied with his statement. If the enemy could be defeated by political propaganda alone, what else would it take to send so many troops?
Political workers can just stand in front of two positions and shout slogans. He curled his lips and said: "The girls in the women's anti-aircraft artillery battalion understand their responsibilities, but when the number of anti-aircraft guns is limited, let them go head-to-head with German aircraft.
, I think this is an unwise choice.”
Sokov's words made Zinchenko's face turn livid, and he said displeasedly: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, since you think this is an unwise choice, do you have any better way to deal with the Germans?"
Plane?"
Seeing that the relationship between the two was full of gunpowder, Bolshak quickly came out to smooth things over: "Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, do you have any good ideas? You might as well tell us and let us all listen."
Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Sokov shook his head and said, "I don't have any good ideas."
As soon as these words came out, Bolshak was dumbfounded. He saw Sokov stopped Zinchenko and raised objections. He thought that the other party had already considered everything in his mind, but now he said in an understatement that there was no other way.
, isn’t this teasing me? Thinking of this, Bolshak’s face became very ugly. He turned to look at Zinchenko: “Comrade Deputy Director, I think it’s better to call Ulanova over.
, you don’t have to make another trip.”
Zinchenko had no objection to Bolshak's proposal. He only glanced at Cousteau, who wisely stood up, ran to the door, called a worker, and ordered him to take Ulanova away.
Find it.
When Cousteau walked back in, he found that the atmosphere in the room was very depressing, so he laughed dryly and said, "Deputy Factory Director, Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, if we have more anti-aircraft guns, then there is no need to worry.
It’s an enemy plane.”
Hearing Cousteau's statement, Zinchenko snorted coldly and said angrily: "If there were more anti-aircraft guns, if there were a hundred anti-aircraft guns, no matter how many enemy planes came, we would still be able to
I can beat it down..."
The speaker is unintentional and the listener is intentional. Zinchenko's grumbling words gave Sokov a flash of inspiration. He felt that he had found a solution to the air defense problem, so he quickly asked: "Comrade Deputy Director, what did you just say?
"
"Lieutenant Colonel Sokov," Cousteau said before Zinchenko could answer: "The deputy director said that no matter how many enemy planes come, we will beat them down."
"Not this sentence," Sokov waved his hand towards Cousteau and continued: "But also the previous sentence."
"He said if there were a hundred anti-aircraft guns..."
"That's right, that's what he said." Sokov slammed the table hard, startling everyone, and said excitedly: "If we have a hundred anti-aircraft guns, then no matter how many enemy planes come, we can't
Don’t worry anymore.”
After listening to what Sokov said, Zinchenko said with some laughter and tears: "Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, let alone a hundred anti-aircraft guns, we don't even have ten anti-aircraft guns, and it is impossible for our superiors to have extra anti-aircraft guns."
Supplement it to us, after all, each unit needs anti-aircraft guns of various calibers for air defense. Now we only have four anti-aircraft guns, how can we deal with enemy aircraft?"
"Without anti-aircraft guns, we can use infantry air defense to deal with German aircraft." Sokov raised the assault rifle leaning on the table high: "You can also shoot down enemy aircraft with a rifle."
"Use a rifle to masturbate?" Hearing Sokov say this, the other three people widened their eyes in surprise and looked at Sokov as if they were looking at an idiot. Bolshak shook his head and said:
"Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, your idea is too far-fetched. How can you shoot down an enemy plane with a rifle?"
Sokov told several people in detail about the rifle masturbation he saw in a later pamphlet. Finally, he said confidently: "I have calculated it, as long as there are one hundred to one hundred
Fifty soldiers, taking advantage of the enemy plane's dive, quickly fired five bullets from their rifles, forming a dense firepower network and successfully shooting down the enemy plane."
"Lieutenant Colonel Sokov," Zinchenko thought that Sokov's rifle masturbation was a bit of a fantasy, but out of politeness he did not refute, but asked: "Have you ever thought about it?
, more than a hundred of us soldiers are lying on their backs on the ground, and a German bomb falls, how many of us will be killed or injured?"
"Comrade Deputy Director, you can rest assured that our soldiers are lying in large and small craters." Sokov explained to Zinchenko: "Even if enemy planes drop bombs, the losses caused to us will be very large.
limited."
"I have another question, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel." After hearing this, Bolshak couldn't help but interjected and asked: "Since our soldiers are all lying in the crater, except for their comrades in the same crater, they cannot
See other people. In this case, how do they know when to shoot? If so many fighters cannot shoot at the same time, it will be difficult to form the dense fire network you are talking about."
"This problem is easy to solve." Sokov was not afraid that they would ask questions, but that they would not ask questions. If they did not ask questions, it would mean that they did not agree with his proposal at all: "Lieutenant Ulanova was directing the anti-aircraft gun fire.
At this time, you can use the whistle to notify the soldiers hiding in the crater."
Several people asked several questions one after another, and Sokov answered them one by one. Zinchenko found no flaws in Sokov's answers, so he nodded, and then asked a new question:
"Lieutenant Colonel Sokov's method is worth a try. But which force should we use to complete this task?"
As soon as Zinchenko finished speaking, both Borshak and Cousteau turned their attention to Sokov. Both of them were thinking: Such a task should be completed by the regular army. Although the 10th Company and the Fighter Battalion
One company is holding on to the position, but there are still two companies as reserves. Although the organization is incomplete, in any case, the combat effectiveness is much stronger than the militiamen in the annihilation battalions and workshops.
Sokov saw what the two were thinking, shook his head and said: "No, I don't plan to let the soldiers of the 11th and 12th companies complete the task of masturbating with rifles. They have more important tasks."
Hearing what Sokov said, Bolshak understood that this task would definitely fall on him in the end. Instead of asking the other party to name his name, he should take the initiative, and said helplessly: "Well, since
The regular army has more important tasks, so let’s leave this task to our annihilation battalion.”
Everyone had already worked out an air defense plan, and Ulanova arrived belatedly. When he saw that she was wearing a blood-stained white apron, Zinchenko couldn't help but frowned and asked: "Comrade Lieutenant, why are you wearing this?"
dress up?"
Ulanova spread her hands and said helplessly: "Comrade Deputy Director, our anti-aircraft guns are temporarily unavailable, so we can only temporarily serve as health workers to help Comrade Asiya take care of the wounded."
"Take it off, take off this apron on your body immediately." Zinchenko said impatiently: "You are anti-aircraft artillery soldiers, not health workers. Gather your people immediately. I have important air defense tasks to assign to you.
