"How is the situation in the city?" Sokov learned that he had been dizzy for a day and a night, and did not know what changes had been made on the left and right wings of Mamayevgang, so he asked Belkin: "Our troops on both wings are still holding their positions?"
When Berkin heard Sokov not asks Mamayev's gang, but directly asked the troops on both wings, he knew that Sokov was full of confidence in defending Mamayev's gang, and quickly replied: "Our right-wing Guards 42nd Regiment, under the command of Colonel Yelin, still holds their positions. And our left wing is the 92nd Infantry Brigade, the 34th Regiment of the Guards, and the remnants of the 39th Regiment, and the enemy are repeatedly competing for positions?"
When he just heard that the guard soldiers on the right wing were still holding their positions, Sokov was secretly happy, but when he heard that the two regiments and an infantry brigade on the left wing had become remnants, his heart couldn't help but sink: "Comrade Political Commissar, please tell me immediately, whose hands are in the Central Railway Station? Are we still Germans?"
Regarding Sokov's question, Belkin was silent for a moment and replied with some difficulty: "Comrade Brigade Commander, the station is the focus of repeated struggles between the enemy and us. Before I came to see you, the station was still in our hands. As for whether it was taken away by the Germans now, I don't know much."
From Belkin's words, Sokov realized that the Central Railway Station had become the focus of competition between the two sides, just like the German army's struggle for Mamayevgang in history. Due to his sudden emergence, the possibility of the German army seizing Mamayevgang was infinitely zero, so their offensive focus became the Central Railway Station invisibly.
"Comrade Brigade Commander, you're awake. This is so good." Before Sokov was talking, Goria's surprise voice came from the door. After the captain made this sigh, he walked in with great strides, squatted beside Sokov, and asked with concern: "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine." Sokov used to tell Goria that it was Belkin who informed Goria, so he cast inquiring eyes. Belkin and Sokov had been together for a long time, so he naturally understood what the gaze he cast meant. Sokov shook his head slightly, spread his hands, and signaled that he didn't know why Goria came. Sokov turned his eyes to Goria again and asked curiously: "Comrade Captain, why are you here?"
"That's right, comrade comrade commander." Goria quickly replied, "When the soldiers saw that you were unconscious, they were very worried, so they asked me to see you. Unexpectedly, I was lucky. As soon as I walked out the door, I saw that you had woken up. This was great."
"Comrade Captain, thank you." Sokov waited for Goria to finish speaking, and looked at him and said sincerely: "Thank you for sending me back to Mamayev."
"Comrade Brigade Commander, look at what you said, how could you say thank you to me?" Goria replied in a panic: "If you hadn't bravely blow up the German tanks, my subordinates and I might have died on that hillside."
Sokov was eager to know what happened later, so he asked curiously: "Comrade Captain, what happened again after I was injured and fainted? Can you tell me?"
Goriya had long guessed that when Sokov woke up, he would definitely ask what happened that day and was ready in his heart. He heard Sokov ask indeed, and quickly replied: "Comrade Brigade Commander, I was on the hillside that day and saw you blowing up the enemy tank. When I was anxious, the company commander returned from the north with two armored vehicles. He saw how you exploded the enemy tanks in the distance, so he followed suit and ordered the armored vehicles to rush towards the enemy tanks and blow up the remaining two tanks at close range..."
After listening to Goria's introduction to the situation patiently, Sokov asked, "Does there any other casualties in the army besides the armored vehicle I am in?"
"Yes." Goria nodded and said with certainty: "The first company commander did not master the skills of bombing tanks, so that the soldiers on one of the armored vehicles were killed by shrapnel when they exploded the tank at close range. However, during the retreat, we did not exchange fire with the enemy along the way, and the whole process could be considered very smooth."
After talking to Goria for a few more words, Sokov felt that since he had woken up, he should report to the Group Army Headquarters and report to Cui Kov about his actions on the north. Even if he couldn't get to the headquarters in his physical condition, it was still necessary to make a phone call.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, he felt like a needle was pricked on his body, which made him snorted so much that he couldn't help but snorted. Asia hurried over and asked with concern: "Misha, you still have injuries on your body. Lying down obediently and don't move."
Seeing that he could not move, Sokov turned his head and looked at Belkin on the other side, and said apologetically to him: "Comrade Political Commissar, I need to report to Commander Cui Kov immediately. Please help me find a phone number."
There was a telephone outside the ward, but it was an internal telephone, so it could only be called within the Mamayev post. It was impossible to talk to the Group Army Command. Berkin walked out of the ward, picked up the telephone, called the company commander of the communication company, and ordered: "Comrade Commander, the brigade commander needs to report to the Group Army Command immediately. You should bring people here immediately and install a dedicated line for him."
After Berkin made the phone call, he walked in and said to Sokov: "Comrade Brigade Commander, I have called the company commander of the communication company and ordered him to send someone to install a dedicated line for you immediately so that you can talk to Commander Choikov directly."
Ten minutes later, the company commander of the communication company brought people over and helped Sokov install a dedicated line that could directly call the Group Army Command. After the company commander connected the phone, he handed the microphone to Sokov and said respectfully: "Comrade Brigade Commander, the phone has been connected, you can speak."
Sokov took the microphone from his hand and put it in his ear. After hearing Krelov's voice coming from inside, he quickly said, "Hello, Comrade Chief of Staff, I am Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, the commander of the 73rd Infantry Brigade, and I will report to you now."
"Lieutenant Colonel Sokov?!" Hearing that it was Sokov talking to him, he asked in surprise: "Have you returned to your command?"
"No, Comrade Chief of Staff." Faced with a series of questions raised by Krelov, Sokov quickly replied: "I did not return to the command center and was still in my own ward. Therefore, I had a job to report to the commander, so I ordered the company commander of the communication company to install a dedicated line for me. Are the commander here?"
"He is not here!" Krelov replied very simply, "After he learned from Lieutenant Colonel Cidolin that you had rushed to Mamayev's hill. I believe that in a few minutes he will appear before you. If you have anything, report it to him."
Sokov never dreamed that Cuikov would be so concerned about himself. When he heard that he had woken up, he couldn't wait to visit him. Considering that German stragglers might appear on the road from the Army Command to Mamayevgang, Sokov hurriedly called Goria and told him: "Comrade Captain, Commander Cuikov is coming towards Mamayevgang. You can bring people to greet him immediately to avoid any accidents on the road..."
