After Lin Hua left his headquarters, Remizov picked up the phone and asked the communications soldier to connect to the group army headquarters. When he heard a voice coming from the receiver, he immediately said into the phone: "This is Lieutenant General
Major General Mizov, please help find Comrade Commander."
After a while, Rokossovsky's voice came from the receiver: "I am Rokossovsky, General Remizov. Do you have anything to report?"
"Yes, Comrade Commander." Remizov said respectfully: "I have integrated the Istrian company into Lieutenant Colonel Andryushchenko's 115th Infantry Brigade to capture the German positions on the banks of the Rama River.
The main attack mission will be completed by them."
"I don't have any opinion," Rokossovsky said calmly: "You are the commander of the right-wing rapid group. You can make your own decisions on how to fight without asking me for instructions. Is there anything else?"
"Comrade Commander," Remizov thought for a while and then said: "The entire Istrian company has more than 400 people. I recommend that the company be promoted to a battalion and Lieutenant Sokov be appointed as the battalion commander.
What do you think?" Remizov heard that there was some connection between Lieutenant Sokov and Rokossovsky, and now he proposed a plan to promote the company to a battalion, which was somewhat flattering.
He originally thought that after listening to his suggestion, Rokossovsky would agree naturally. Unexpectedly, Rokossovsky said decisively: "No, General Remizov, I can't use East for the time being."
The company was promoted to a battalion. In addition to the fact that we do not have so many grassroots commanders to enrich the troops, Lieutenant Sokov's ability is still unknown, and we still need to test it in future battles. Do you understand? "<
/p>
"Understood, Comrade Commander." Remizov hurriedly responded with a red face.
Andryushchenko heard the conversation between Remizov and Rokossovsky. He waited for Remizov to put down the phone and said: "Comrade General, as far as I know, this Lieutenant Sokov was
Within a dozen days, he was promoted from a squad leader to a company commander, and his military rank was also changed from a corporal to a lieutenant. Regardless of his ability, being promoted to five levels in such a short period of time was not a good thing for him.
, this will lead to an unstable foundation. Therefore, I think the commander’s decision is correct.”
Remizov agreed with Andryushenko's statement. After Andryushenko finished speaking, he said quietly: "I heard a rumor. Some people said that Lieutenant Sokov,
He is the illegitimate son of General Rokossovsky."
Andryushchenko just picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water. When he heard that Sokov was Rokossovsky's illegitimate son, he spit out all the tea in his mouth and sprayed Remizov in the face. He
He hurriedly found something to help Remizov wipe his face, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Comrade General, I didn't mean it. It's just that the news you just said is too surprising."
Remizov raised his sleeves, wiped the tea from his face, and said with a wry smile: "When I first heard this rumor, I had the same reaction as you. After all, our commander's love affair is not
Very few, it’s not uncommon to have one or two illegitimate children.”
"I think Lieutenant Sokov is not the illegitimate son of the commander." Andryushenko waited for Remizov to finish speaking, then shook his head and denied it, "I just looked carefully, although Lieutenant Sokov looks very good.
He is very handsome, but he looks nothing like Comrade Commander. I think even if there is an illegitimate child out there, it won't be Lieutenant Sokov."
Lin Hua left the headquarters and walked towards the supply point when he suddenly sneezed a few times without warning. Two soldiers passing by quickly stopped and said to Lin Hua: "I wish you good health!"
Lin Hua knew that it was a custom for the two of them to say this to him who was sneezing, so he smiled and nodded at the two of them and said politely: "Thank you!"
When Lin Hua returned to the supply point, except for one sentry on guard, the rest of the soldiers, after eating and drinking, went to rest in the tents arranged for them at the supply point. Seeing his company commander return, the sentry hurriedly
After saluting him, Lin Hua returned the salute and asked: "Where are the platoon leaders?"
The sentry pointed to a tent to the east and said: "Several platoon leaders are there."
After Lin Hua thanked the sentry, he quickly came to the tent. He raised his hand to lift the curtain, bent down and got into the tent. Several platoon leaders were all dressed and lying side by side on the ground to sleep. When they heard someone coming in from outside,
They all raised their heads and looked towards the entrance of the tent, wanting to see who had disturbed their dreams.
The first person to see Lin Hua clearly was Second Platoon Commander Andre. He raised his voice and shouted: "The company commander is back." He got up first to greet Lin Hua.
Looking at the platoon leaders surrounding him, Lin Hua said: "Comrades, platoon leaders, we have just received an order from our superiors. Tomorrow the troops will launch an attack on the German defensive position on the banks of the Rama River, and we will be the main ones responsible for the attack.
Even."
Although Lin Hua said these words in an understatement, the tent suddenly became quiet. Seeing everyone's frown, Lin Hua asked: "If you have any questions, you can ask them."<

"Comrade Company Commander," Second Lieutenant Vanya spoke first. As an officer with rich combat experience, he bluntly asked for the information he was eager to know: "I wonder how many enemies there are in the defensive position we want to capture.
What kind of weapons and equipment do they have?"
Fortunately, when Lin Hua accepted the mission, he specifically asked Andryushchenko, so when he heard Vanya's question, he could answer confidently: "According to the scout's report, there are about one defender on the position.
The company is equipped with three to five machine guns and several mortars, and half of the soldiers are equipped with submachine guns..."
After answering Vanya's question, the engineer platoon leader Vasily asked again: "Comrade company commander, I wonder if the German army has deployed minefields in front of the position? If so, do we need our engineers to open a channel for the attacking troops?"
Faced with Vasily's question, Lin Hua thought for a while and then said: "Second Lieutenant Vasily, I don't think it is necessary. Before the attack begins, there will be half an hour of artillery preparations. After the artillery bombardment is over, the mines in the minefield should
It’s almost done.”
Andrei and Saveyev also raised questions that they were eager to know the answers to. Fortunately, Lin Hua took these into consideration. After accepting the task, he figured out all the information he needed to know.
Therefore, the questions asked by each platoon leader can be answered accurately.
