"Entrepreneur Samoilov," Sokov naturally would not let Ivanov do such a small matter, so he ordered Samoilov, who was standing aside, to "Go and bring all the tank soldiers here."
"Yes!" Samoilov agreed, turned around and prepared to leave, but Ivanov stopped him.
"Second lieutenant," Ivanov asked, "I want to ask, if the enemy uses sewers to carry out sneak attacks, how will you deal with it?"
"Comrade Deputy Division Commander," Samoilov grinned at Ivanov's question and said, "Didn't you notice that the soldiers who led you to learn two cat meows before you came out of the sewer?"
After Samoilov reminded me, Ivanov remembered the warrior who acted as a guide. He had indeed learned to meow near the exit, so he nodded and asked curiously: "Is this your contact code?"
"That's right." Samoilov nodded vigorously and replied, "We are always responsible for monitoring us near the exit of the sewer. If we hear any movement inside but no contact code, it must be the enemy. There will be bullets and grenades to greet them immediately." After saying this, he turned around and left the room.
"Comrade of the Division," after Samoilov left, Ivanov felt that it was necessary to persuade Sokov to leave the place, so he began to say, "This place is really too dangerous, you should go back to Mamayev's hill."
"We have too few troops here and lack sufficient anti-tank weapons. I can adjust my defense deployment at any time according to the situation on the battlefield." Sokov waved his hand at Ivanov and said, "I may not be able to go back for the time being. The Mamayevgang will be left to you and Chief of Staff Cidolin."
Hearing Sokov say this, Ivanov changed the topic in time: "Comrade Commander, I want to ask, where is the tank that Director Peter gave us?"
"At present, we only have one tank here, which is hidden behind this building." Sokov pointed at the remains of the burning tank in the square in the distance and said to Ivanov: "Deputy Commander, have you seen the burning German tanks? They were all destroyed by that tank."
Ivanov silently counted the number of tank wreckage and said in surprise: "O my God, when did our tanks become so powerful? And when the number is at a disadvantage, we can destroy so many tanks from the enemy."
"It is a new type of tank, which has been improved on the basis of the original T-34 and has become more powerful." Sokov introduced to Ivanov: "It's a pity that the Red October factory has not yet mass-produced this kind of tank. Otherwise, there would be only 40 such tanks, and I would be sure to wipe out the 24th Armored Division of the German Army."
Ivanov felt that he was bragging about Sokov's statement, but out of politeness, he did not refute him. Instead, he changed the subject in time: "By the way, when will the rest of the tanks arrive?"
"I think it should be on the road." As soon as Sokov finished speaking, a shell landed not far away and exploded, shaking the dust on the ceiling above his head and poured it down. He dusted the dust on his shoulder with his hands, called a warrior, and told him, "Go and call Lieutenant Agafeng to me."
When Ivanov heard the name, he said thoughtfully: "Comrade Teacher, the name you are talking about sounds very familiar. Where did he come from?"
"Just just now, it was the tank he drove, which destroyed the German tanks in the square." Sokov looked at Ivanov and said, "As for you, you think his name is familiar because you know him. He was the lieutenant of the tank soldier who was beaten by Guchakov in our command."
"Ah, it's him?" Ivanov asked in surprise: "Why did he become Director Peter's subordinate again?"
"I didn't ask about this." Sokov shook his head and said, "Last time Colonel Bere and Commander Choikov pleaded for him, hoping that I could give him a chance to redeem his sins. I thought he would go to the Derrensky factory to fight now. Unexpectedly, he stayed at the Red October factory. I was really surprised to see him appear in front of me."
"Comrade Commander, although this tank lieutenant has made merits here today." Ivanov learned that Lieutenant Agafon would appear later, so he deliberately reminded Sokov: "But you better not let him meet Lieutenant Guchakov, maybe the two of them will fight again by then."
"Don't worry." Sokov said with great confidence: "I have arranged for Lieutenant Guchakov to go to the old city. Before the battle to defend Stalingrad, I think the two of them should have no chance to meet."
"Comrade Commander, I brought everyone." As the two were talking, Samoilov had already walked into the room with the tank soldiers. Although Sokov chose to be the observation center, there were a lot of room, but twenty people rushed in and the room suddenly became crowded.
"Hello, comrades!" Sokov saw that there were several familiar faces among the people coming in, and waved at them, saying, "I'm glad to see you here."
The tank soldiers from the guard battalion knew Sokov. Seeing that the division commander took the initiative to greet him, he quickly responded in unison and said, "Hello, the division commander!"
Before Sokov could speak, someone at the door suddenly said, "Comrades, please let us go in." Soon, two people squeezed out of the crowd. Sokov recognized at a glance, and the two people who came were Lieutenant Agafeng and the soldier he sent to find him.
The soldier came to Sokov and raised his hand to salute: "Comrade Commander, I have invited Lieutenant Agafeng!"
Agafen also saluted Sokov and said respectfully: "Comrade Colonel, Agafen, lieutenant of the tank soldier, reported to you, I am ordered to come, please instruct!"
"Comrade Lieutenant," Sokov pointed behind Agafon and said to him: "These soldiers are all tank soldiers I just transferred from Mamayev's hill. From now on, I will give them to you to command."
Agafon turned his head and looked back. Although he didn't count it, he still judged that there were more than 20 people. He quickly turned around to face Sokov and said, "Comrade Colonel, I don't understand, why do you give me so many tank soldiers? You know, I only have one tank, and so many people can't sit in it."
