"Comrade Teacher," Sokov looked at the teacher who had just scolded him and asked calmly: "Are you going to let me continue speaking, or are you going to let me go back to my seat immediately?"
The instructor stared at Sokov for a few seconds, then picked up the seating chart on the desk. After seeing Sokov's name clearly, he said in a contemptuous tone: "Captain Sokov, just tell everyone.
Your understanding of street fighting."
After getting the instructor's permission, Sokov nodded slightly to him, then turned to look at the students, and said firmly: "Students, what I want to talk about today is how to correctly use weapons and weapons in street fighting.
Cover our armored forces.
As we all know, our army's tanks are designed for field combat and are not suitable for fighting in narrow areas in big cities. In addition to the tank's main gun rotation radius being too narrow, it can only attack front arc targets in narrow streets; the pitch angle is also insufficient
To attack targets in basements and on top of buildings. In addition, the armor on the top and bottom of the tank is thin, making it vulnerable to attacks from Panzerfaust or anti-tank mines.
Some people may say that since our tanks are not suitable for street fighting, we should stop using tanks after entering the city. That is not possible. You must know that when our troops fight in the city, they will definitely encounter many solid tanks.
A fire support point cannot be destroyed without the support of artillery fire.
Although it is possible to use the "bayonet on the cannon" tactic to bring the artillery close to fire. However, the advancement speed of artillery is too slow. If we rely solely on artillery, it will greatly slow down the speed of our army's liberation of the city. Therefore, we will inevitably
Tanks must be used in conjunction with infantry to capture the city.
Berlin is an ancient city with wide streets and solid stone buildings on both sides of the road. The enemy can use these buildings to build a complete defense system to attack our troops rushing into the city."
The instructor standing aside originally wanted to see Sokov's joke, but unexpectedly found that the other students were taking notes seriously, and he couldn't help showing a look of astonishment on his face. You know, one-third of the students
It was a major, and Sokov who was speaking was just a captain, but everyone's reaction was as focused as listening to a teacher's lecture.
"What on earth is going on?" The teacher realized that something was wrong, and planned to go to Christonia, who was in charge of this class, to ask after class, what on earth was going on, and why a captain could make everyone
Are you convinced by him?
"When our offensive troops advance along the street, how should we eliminate the enemies along the way?" Sokov continued: "My idea is that the advancing tank troops should form two columns on the street.
, the muzzle of the tank on the left is facing to the right, and the muzzle of the tank on the left is facing to the right. In this way, no matter which part of the street the enemy appears from, they can be discovered by our tank soldiers in time and can respond quickly.
In street fighting, the enemy will definitely deploy a large number of anti-tank fighters in the buildings on both sides to destroy our tanks. In order to ensure the safety of the tanks, each attacking tank unit should be equipped with a considerable number of infantry.
Walking between two tanks, while receiving protection from the tanks, you also take on the responsibility of protecting the tanks."
"Captain Sokov," when Sokov's words came to an end, a captain below raised his hand and asked loudly: "What if the troops encounter the barricades deployed by the German army at the intersection while advancing?
What should we do? You must know that the enemy's mg42 general machine gun is enough to cause huge casualties to our infantry."
Sokov looked in the direction where the voice came from. The speaker was a captain from the Baltic Coast Army. He rarely talked to him. But since the other party raised a question, he naturally wanted to answer it. He could only let more people know.
Only when a commander masters what he knows about street fighting can he reduce the casualties of his troops.
"We can park the tank 150 meters away from the enemy fortifications, use artillery fire to destroy the barricades, and cover the infantry to pass through this area smoothly." Sokov also specifically explained to the other party: "Why should we choose to stop at 150 meters?
Where is the location? It’s because this distance has exceeded the effective range of our rocket launchers. Unless the enemy uses large-caliber anti-tank guns, there is no weapon that can destroy our tanks at such a long distance.”
After Sokov explained in detail how to use tanks to destroy the German barricades and clear the way forward for the infantry, he made a concluding speech: "In short, everyone just needs to keep in mind the basic principles of using combined arms and equip them with sufficient troops.
Communication facilities and control methods can reduce casualties in street fighting, shorten the time to capture the city, and achieve final victory."
Looking at the young captain talking eloquently in front of him, the instructor had a vague illusion, as if the person sitting in the wheelchair in front of him was not an ordinary officer, but a general who had experienced hundreds of battles and made great achievements in battle.
After Sokov finished speaking, Sukhalev stepped forward and pushed his wheelchair back to his seat, and gave him a thumbs up: "What you said is really great. If everyone can remember what you said,
content and apply it in actual combat, then our speed of liberating the city can be greatly improved."
The content of the teacher's next lecture was still related to street fighting, but with Sokov's pearls in front of him, the content he described seemed a bit lackluster.
The teacher was obviously aware of this, but he could only bite the bullet and continue teaching according to the content of the lesson he had prepared in advance. Finally, when he heard the bell ringing, he breathed a sigh of relief, immediately announced that the get out of class was over, and then packed up the desk books and hurriedly walked out of the classroom.
As soon as he left the classroom, the teacher hurried to the teacher's office, wanting to ask Christonia, who was in charge of managing the intermediate training class, who Captain Sokov was who was talking eloquently in his class.
Christonia was in her office, talking on the phone with the dean. When she saw the teacher who had just finished class hurried in, he seemed to be worried, so he spoke faster, and after finishing the matter, he ended the conversation with the dean.
call.
"My old friend." Christonia put down the phone and asked the teacher in surprise: "What happened? I see you seem very unhappy?"
"Hristonia, I want to ask you." The instructor looked into Kristonia's eyes and asked, "What kind of person is that Captain Sokov?"
Hearing the teacher ask about Sokov, Christonia couldn't help but panic. He quickly lowered his head and pretended to sort out the teaching materials in front of him, trying to pretend to be nonchalant and asked: "Did he cause you any trouble?"
"My class today is to introduce the emerging theory of street fighting." Although Christonia hid it well, the teacher still noticed something strange about him, but before questioning Sokov's identity, he still had to tell what happened in class.
What happened: "Before class, I asked the students to come up and talk about their understanding of street fighting."
Hearing what the teacher said, Christonia immediately guessed what had happened. According to his understanding of Sokov, maybe the anonymous general had come up with some original new theory in class. He raised the question again.
He started with a contemptuous smile on his lips: "You won't let Sokov come on stage to explain his understanding of street fighting, right? If so, I'm afraid he will steal all your limelight."
"Ah, how did you know?" After the teacher said this, he suddenly remembered Christonia's abnormal reaction just now, and immediately felt that something was wrong, and quickly asked: "Christonia, have you guessed it a long time ago?
, will I encounter such a situation?"
"That's right, my old friend." Now that the other party has guessed the truth, Christonia doesn't intend to hide it anymore: "No matter which teacher it is, as long as Sokov is invited to speak on stage, their limelight will be overshadowed.
Compared with them, Sokov is more like an experienced teacher."
"Hristonia, stop talking nonsense." The instructor was eager to know Sokov's true identity, so he urged Kristonia: "Hurry up and tell me who this Captain Sokov is and why he is
Knowing so much, could it be that he is a military genius?"
Christonia did not answer the teacher's question immediately. Instead, he stood up and walked to the door. After looking outside for a moment, he closed the door. He returned to his desk and sat down, looking at the teacher and asked: "My old friend
,Have you heard of the 27th Army?"
"Of course I have." The instructor nodded and said, "Whether it was in the Battle of Kursk or the Battle of Kharkov a few months ago, this unit has made numerous military exploits."
When the instructor said this, he suddenly remembered something. He raised his eyebrows, and then asked tentatively: "I remember the surname of the commander of the 27th Group Army, which is also Sokov. Could it be that he and this Captain Sokov
Are they relatives?"
"They are not relatives." Christonia answered simply: "They are the same person."
"How is this possible?" the instructor said in surprise: "Commander Sokov has now been promoted to lieutenant general, and student Sokov is now just a captain."
"Since we are friends, I will not hide it from you." Christonia explained to the teacher: "General Sokov was arranged by his superiors to come to the academy to learn systematic military theory. Because he will be in the intermediate class separately.
, advanced class, and training in the general class. In order not to put pressure on other students due to his identity, when he entered my intermediate class, he appeared as a captain and even changed his name. "
"Hristonia, are everything you said true?"
"How could I lie to you about this kind of thing?" In order to increase the credibility of the matter, he also emphasized to the teacher: "The dean secretly told me this matter. Now that I have told you, you must
Keep it a secret and don’t reveal General Sokov’s true identity.”
"Don't worry, Christonia, I will keep this secret." The teacher was shocked and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that he was actually the famous General Sokov, and I was still in class today.
I scolded him. Now that I think about it, I feel really ashamed."
Christonia asked in surprise: "What, you reprimanded General Sokov? What did you reprimand him for?"
"When I asked him to come up to speak, he immediately told the students that according to his analysis of the situation, the war would end in two years at most. And he used Berlin as the background to tell the students how to
Carry out street fighting." The instructor said with a red face: "I didn't know his true identity at the time, so I laughed at him in front of all the students."
Christonia suddenly became nervous. He was worried that the instructor's actions would anger Sokov. He was eager to understand the situation at that time to decide whether it was necessary to make remedies: "What was General Sokov's reaction at that time?"
"The response was very dull, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in my tone at all." The instructor said thoughtfully, "Instead, he calmly asked me if he could continue to teach the students street fighting experience."
"You agreed?" Christonia asked with a worried look.
"Yes, I agree." The instructor gave him a strange look and continued: "He mainly tells the students how to use tanks in street fighting, thereby reducing troop casualties and accelerating the progress of liberating the city."
Christonia became somewhat interested: "Oh, this is a new tactic. Have you written down the content?"
The teacher pointed a finger at his head and said: "Christonia, don't you know that my memory has always been better than others? I remember every word he said firmly in my mind."
"Then please record in detail what General Sokov said and give it to Comrade Dean." Christonia reminded the teacher: "I think the Dean will be interested in these contents."
"Okay." Now that the instructor knew Sokov's identity, he was naturally very happy to write down what he said and let more people see it: "I will tell General Sokov as soon as possible.
If so, write a report."
"Very good!" Christonia nodded, and then warned the other party again: "My old friend, you must remember not to reveal the identity of General Sokov to anyone, so as not to bring trouble to him.
unnecessary trouble."
Seeing that Christonia was worried that his lax words would reveal Sokov's identity, the teacher's face showed an unhappy expression. He frowned and said: "Christonia, you and I have been friends for many years.
Well, don’t you still know who I am? Since you have reminded me not to reveal General Sokov’s identity, I will strictly keep this secret.”
Seeing that his old friend was angry, Christonia quickly smiled and comforted him and said: "My old friend, don't be angry. I am also worried that General Sokov's identity will be revealed, which will cause him a lot of inconvenience.
, I will warn you again and again.”
After leaving Christonia's office, the teacher returned to his own office, sat down and carefully recalled what Sokov had said, and then picked up a pen and started writing a report.
Sokov knew nothing about the teacher leaving the classroom and going to Christonia's office. The following course taught the team's offensive and defensive tactics. Although Sokov's identity, tactics of this level are all
Although he is a child, he still listened attentively to the lectures during class, and compared the theories explained by the instructor with some regiment-level battles he had commanded, looking for his own shortcomings, and actively thinking about solutions.
