"Comrade Gumyev," Sokov felt that Samoilov expressed his thoughts, so he said to Gumyev: "We are waiting for you here. You should first say hello to the comrades of the guerrillas, so as not to have unnecessary misunderstandings."
Gumyev also realized the problem at this moment, and nodded quickly, speeding up his pace and walking forward. After walking about seventy or eighty meters, he suddenly stopped and learned to call the duck, "Ga~Ga~Ga!"
A moment later, the same sound came not far away: "Ga~Ga~Ga!"
Sokov couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard this voice, which meant that Gumyev was receiving a secret code with his comrade. Soon, he heard a voice coming from there, but because the light in the forest was too dark and he couldn't see people clearly, he could only see some faint shadows.
Not long after, Sokov saw Gumyev and several people coming over. Gumyev pointed to the bearded man who was not tall but strong, and said, "Comrade Commander, this is Pilixin, the captain of our guerrilla team."
"Hello, Comrade Pilixin." Sokov, as soon as Gumiev finished speaking, immediately reached out to the other party and said politely: "I am Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, the commander of the 73rd Infantry Brigade, and I am here to carry out a special mission."
"Hello, lieutenant colonel." Pilixin just saw Sokov wearing a German uniform and was still vigilant enough. He could hear the other party's proficient Russian and his self-reported identity. A smile suddenly appeared on his face. He quickly held Sokov's hand and said with a smile: "On behalf of all comrades in the guerrillas, I welcome your arrival."
"Comrade Captain." After seeing Pilixin and Sokov shake hands, Gumev whispered to remind Pilixin: "Let's go back to the camp as soon as possible."
In this way, Sokov and his friends followed the comrades of the guerrillas to their base. Deep in the woods, there were several wooden houses, and fires were set in the houses. Because they were afraid that the fire would expose the target, a thick curtain was hung at the door. Sokov followed Pilixin and entered a room, and suddenly felt warm all over.
"Please sit, lieutenant colonel." There were simple wooden tables and benches in the room. After Pilixin called Sokov to sit down, she poured them hot tea with a samovar himself, and then asked, "Lieutenant colonel, can I ask, what is your special task this time?"
"Our mission is to find a missing female scout here and bring her and her important information back." Sokov thought that since he had told Gumiev the mission, even if he didn't tell him, maybe Pilixin knew it, so he simply said straight to the point: "I heard Comrade Gumiev say that you once saved a female scout, and maybe she is the person we are looking for."
After hearing this, Pilixin did not speak, but turned her head to look at Gumyev sitting next to her. After seeing the other party nodding slightly, she continued: "Yes, we did save a female scout. She said she had important information on her and hoped that we could send someone to the city."
When Sokov learned that the female scout was indeed here, he asked tentatively: "Comrade Captain, can we meet her?"
"Come." Pilixin did not refuse Sokov's request. He stood up and shouted at the door.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young guerrilla tilted the curtain and walked in, straightened his body and asked, "Comrade Captain, do you have any instructions?"
"That's right," Pilixin said to the team members: "You go and invite the lesbian we rescued today, and some people say that someone wants to see her."
Not long after the team members went out, they came in and reported: "Comrade Captain, she is here."
"Hurry up and invite her in!"
The team member agreed, lifted the curtain open, and used his hands to make an inviting position: "Please come in, comrade female scout."
A female scout with a well-proportioned figure and slightly plump body, strode into the room and found three German officers and soldiers sitting by the table. She was shocked and suddenly pulled out her pistol and pointed it at Sokov and the others. At the same time, she asked loudly at Pilixin: "Comrade Captain, give me an explanation, why are there Germans here?"
"Don't be excited, Comrade Maria Vidjeev." Seeing that the female scout was so excited, Sokov did not make any stimulation to her, but sat in a seat and said to her: "Put down the gun. We are our own people, and we are the orders of our superiors to find you."
After hearing Sokov say this, Maria was extremely shocked, but instead of lowering her gun, she asked vigilantly: "Who are you? Why do you know my name?"
When Sokov heard Mariya admit his identity, he felt much more at ease. He said slowly: "I am Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, the commander of the 73rd Infantry Brigade of the 62nd Army. At the order of General Krelov, the chief of the Army's staff, we will find a female scout named Mariya Vidjeev..."
Maria lowered her gun, but still asked vigilantly: "Are you really sent by General Krelov?"
Sokov stood up, put the assault rifle that he had originally held in his arms on the table, walked to Maria and said, "He told me that you sent him a message. After the word "top secret" appeared in the telegram, he suddenly interrupted the contact. He was worried that something would happen to you, so he ordered me to send someone to find you. I was worried that I would hand over this important task to someone else, so I brought someone to find you in person."
"My relatives have come to you." Maria, when she finished speaking, hugged Sokov tightly and said excitedly: "I knew my superiors would not give up on me, I knew..." As she said that, she started to cry.
Sokov gently patted Maria's back a few times, comforting her and said, "Maria, don't worry, you are safe now, we will take you back to Stalingrad right away."
"Ltd Colonel," Maria took a step back after letting go of Sokov, and looked up at Sokov and said, "Do you have a radio station? My intelligence needs to be sent out immediately."
When Sokov heard Maria say this, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Comrade Maria, where is the radio station you used when contacting your superiors?"
"After I got the enemy's intelligence, I wanted to hurry up and send the telegram, but I was discovered by the enemy as soon as the computer was turned on." Maria replied: "The enemy fired a machine gun at my location, and the bullets destroyed the radio station, causing the connection between me and my superiors to be interrupted. If I hadn't happened to encounter the guerrilla team led by Captain Pilixin, you probably wouldn't have seen me anymore."
"Where is the intelligence?" Sokov said quickly: "There is a radio station in the armored vehicle we are riding in. You can use that radio to send the information out."
Maria took out the information from her body and handed it to Sokov, saying, "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, the information is here."
Sokov took it and saw it read: "...The enemy troops currently operating on the front of the defense lines of the 62nd Army and the 64th Army have 9 infantry divisions, 3 tank divisions and 1 motorized division. This enemy group has a total of 500 tanks, and the air support provided to it is more than 1,000 aircraft of the 4th Air Force.
In addition, they planned to attack the junction of our two armies along the railway from Karpovka Station to Sadovaya Station, and occupy Stalingrad at all costs..."
For Sokov, who knows the history of the Stalingrad defense war, such information is the same as that. But for the 62nd Army Command, which is currently in a hurry, it is crucial. Therefore, as soon as he read the contents of the telegram, he said to Pilixin: "Comrade Captain, this is an important message, and we need to send it out immediately on the radio. For your rescue of Maria, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the 62nd Army Command." As he said that, he raised his hand to salute Pilixin and Gumiev.
Pilixin and Gumiev also hurriedly returned the politeness and said politely: "It's no big deal. Everything we do is to defend our great motherland."
