"Oh my God!" The captain quickly crossed himself on his chest and murmured, "This is incredible."
"That's right, Comrade Captain, I joined the army on August 19, 1941." Seeing the captain's stunned expression, Sokov explained to him: "But by chance, I achieved some meritorious deeds, so
As an exception, he received the Order of Lenin and the rank of captain."
The captain stared at the Order of Lenin on Sokov's chest, nodded slightly, and said: "Captain Sokov, it seems that you have made great contributions. I have seen the Order of the Red Banner here in the 37th Army.
It’s not a big deal, but this is the first time I’ve seen the Lenin Medal.”
After filling in the information, the captain asked Sokov for a photo. But where could Sokov get the photo? He could only say apologetically, "I'm sorry, Comrade Captain, I don't have any ready-made photos. Is there a photo studio somewhere in the city?"
, I’ll go over and take a photo now.”
"Many shops in the city are closed." The captain shook his head and said, "Even if you are lucky enough to find a photo studio that is not closed, but you don't have a military ID card on you, if you are caught by the patrol, you will be in trouble.
That would be troublesome."
"Then what should I do?"
"Captain Sokov, don't worry, we have people here who specialize in taking photos." The captain said to Sokov: "I will call the person in charge of taking photos to come over and ask him to take photos for you."
The captain picked up the phone on the table, dialed a number and said, "Send a comrade who takes photos to our office. There is someone here who wants to take photos."
After putting down the phone, the captain took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to the staff officer and Sokov: "Do you want to smoke?"
The staff officer reached out and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and put it in his mouth. But Sokov waved his hand and refused: "Thank you, I don't know how to smoke."
After the captain and staff lit their cigarettes, they looked at Sokov and asked: "Captain Sokov, when you come to Kiev this time, I wonder what position your superiors have assigned you?"
"I came here with the new commander, General Vlasov." Sokov knew very well that the captain seemed to be chatting, but in fact he was inquiring about his background. He pretended to be casual and said: "
Before I came here, Comrade General told me that I might be allowed to serve as the security company commander in the security force of the headquarters."
"This is a good job." After listening to Sokov's story, the captain grinned: "Not only can you often come into contact with the leader of the group army, but it is also not very dangerous. If I ask you for help with anything in the future, you can
You can’t pretend you don’t know me.”
"Don't worry, Comrade Captain." Sokov had just arrived, and naturally he was eager to make more connections. Since the captain took the initiative to come, he would not refuse anyone who came: "If you have anything to do, just ask. As long as it's in
I will definitely help you if it is within my ability."
"Then let's just say this."
Not long after the two chatted, a photographer appeared at the door. He straightened his body and reported to the captain: "Comrade Captain, I have been ordered to report and I am waiting for your instructions. Which comrade wants to take the photo?"
"That's the captain." The captain pointed at Sokov and said, "Take a photo of him to apply for a military ID."
"Understood, Comrade Captain, I will take pictures for him right now." The photographer said politely to Sokov: "Comrade Captain, please follow me to the corner. There is enough light here, which is very suitable for taking pictures of you."
A few minutes later, the photo was taken. Sokov asked tentatively: "I wonder when I can get the photo?"
"Three days." The photographer replied: "You can get your photos in three days at most."
"No, three days is too long." Before Sokov could speak, the captain said first: "I can only give you three hours at most. You know, Captain Sokov does not have a military card, but as a
The security personnel directly under the group army have to go out frequently to do errands. If they are caught by the patrol, it will be troublesome. Therefore, you should develop the photos as soon as possible."
"I'm sorry, Comrade Captain." The photographer said with a wry smile, "I can't develop the photos within three hours."
"How long will it take you?"
The photographer thought for a while and replied: "It will take four and a half hours at the fastest."
The captain hesitated for a moment, then said: "I'll give you five hours. You must develop the photos as soon as possible."
"Yes, Comrade Captain."
After the photographer left, the captain said to Sokov: "Captain Sokov, you can come here to get your military ID in five hours."
Sokov followed the staff back to the headquarters.
At this moment, Vlasov had already learned about the current situation from the chief of staff.
Seeing Sokov reappearing in front of him, he said to Chief of Staff Del: "Colonel Del, this is Captain Sokov. I have just introduced him to you. I want him to serve as a guard directly under the group army."
In the army, he serves as the security company commander. Do you have any objection?"
"No, Comrade Commander." Del answered very readily: "I think with Captain Sokov's ability, there should be no problem in serving as a guard company commander."
"By the way, the defense around the headquarters is too weak. I plan to put Captain Sokov in charge of strengthening the defensive positions so that the enemy cannot get close to my headquarters."
Although Colonel Der agreed with Sokov as the guard company commander, now that he heard what Vlasov said, he raised his own objections: "Comrade Commander, let Captain Sokov be responsible for strengthening the surrounding areas of the headquarters.
"Comrade Commander, you don't know something. The engineering department of the Front Army Headquarters is responsible for the defense deployment near the headquarters." Del said helplessly: "If we want to adjust the deployment, we must apply to the Front Army Headquarters.
After they pass, they will order the person in charge of the engineering agency to come over.
Make corresponding adjustments based on the problems existing in the defensive positions. The defense level near our headquarters is similar to the defense level outside the front army headquarters building. Even if we apply, I am afraid we will not be approved. In my opinion, it is best to
Let’s maintain the status quo to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
When Sokov heard this, he immediately felt relieved. Don't look at Vlasov asking himself to be responsible for strengthening the defense around the headquarters. It seems simple, but in practice, it is quite troublesome.
"Oh my God!" The captain quickly crossed himself on his chest and murmured, "This is incredible."
"That's right, Comrade Captain, I joined the army on August 19, 1941." Seeing the captain's stunned expression, Sokov explained to him: "But by chance, I achieved some meritorious deeds, so
