After Malinin heard Sokov's report, he was stunned.
After a long time, he asked cautiously: "Colonel Sokov, are everything you said true?"
"It's completely true." Sokov nodded and replied: "This information was reported to me by the officer escorting Colonel Ivanov." Sokov was eager to rush to Luhansk to see Ivanov for the last time.
, asked anxiously, "Comrade Chief of Staff, I wonder when the transport vehicles provided by our superiors will be available?"
"I am still discussing this matter with the logistics department to see if enough vehicles can be allocated to transport you."
"Comrade Chief of Staff," Sokov became a little anxious when he saw that Malinin was still studying and discussing at this time: "Even if we take a car, our troops will need at least ten or twenty hours to arrive in Lugansk. Arrangement
The defense will take a few more days, and if we don't hurry up, I'm worried that when the German counterattack begins, we still won't be ready for combat."
Sokov's words are not without purpose. After all, no one can say how long it will take to build fortifications outside the city. If we don't seize the time and continue to delay, we may wait for the enemy to rush to Lu.
At the time of Gansk, the army's fortifications had not yet been completed.
"Wait for me for another two hours." Ma Lining said with some embarrassment: "I will seize the time and contact other logistics departments to try to get the vehicles you need as soon as possible."
While waiting for Malinin's reply, Sokov was not idle. After explaining to Sidorin the precautions for the troops' departure, he went to the health team to see Asya.
Asiya already knew the news of Ivanov's sacrifice. When she saw Sokov appearing, she comforted him and said, "Misha, don't be sad. As long as the war is not over, someone will die at any time."
"Asiya, listen." Sokov waited for Asiya to finish speaking and then said to her: "Because we need to set up a division field hospital, you will not be following this troop deployment for the time being."
"But what if we don't go and someone gets injured?" Asiya asked unwillingly, "You can't travel hundreds of kilometers to send the injured back for treatment, right?"
"It's okay. As long as there is no fighting, no one in the army will be injured." Sokov continued: "Even if someone is sick or slightly injured, they can find a doctor in the city to solve it."
"Misha, haven't you ever considered that after Lugansk was destroyed by the Germans, will there still be a doctor there?"
Asiya's words stopped Sokov. When he thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case. In a city that had been occupied by the German army and was destroyed during the evacuation, the hospital must be unusable.
How many of the medical staff will survive is really a question.
Thinking of this, he changed his mind and said to Asiya: "Asiya, you are right to remind me. Maybe there are really not enough medical staff in Lugansk. The main force of the division is really inseparable from the departure."
Open medical staff.”
He called Pavlov and said to him: "Comrade Dean, according to the original plan of the division, we planned to let you stay here to set up a field hospital. But now the situation has changed, and we need some medical staff.
As the troops head to Lugansk, what should we do?"
As the future director of the division field hospital, Pavlov thought that after the Paulus Group was eliminated, there would be no more fighting in the army in a short time. After hearing Sokov's question, he looked at Asya
He glanced at it and said smartly: "Comrade Commander, I think we should form a small medical team to follow the main force."
"Medical team?!" Sokov asked, "How many people do you think this team should have?"
"Ten people are enough." Pavlov replied loudly: "A medical team will be formed by an assistant military doctor, an experienced health worker, and eight newly assigned health workers to follow the main force.
action."
"Comrade Dean," Asiya waited for Pavlov to finish, looked at him and begged: "I am an assistant military doctor, please let me join this medical team."
"Comrade Commander," Pavlov did not make an immediate decision, but looked at Sokov and asked, "Do you agree to let Asiya join this medical team?"
Hearing Pavlov's question, Sokov seemed a little embarrassed. As an assistant military doctor, Asya is undoubtedly the most suitable commander if she joins the team. But this time going to Luhansk, there are big challenges
There was a high probability that he would go to war with the German army, and he was unwilling to put Asiya in danger.
"Misha, Misha." Seeing Sokov's silence, Asiya quickly grabbed his arm and shook it twice, and said sincerely: "Hurry up and express your opinion, do you agree to let me participate in this small event?"
Detachment?"
Sokov could tell from Asiya's expression that she wanted to join the team. If he forcibly refused, she would definitely be sad and disappointed. After repeated thinking, he decided to let Asiya join the team.
As an assistant military doctor, she only needs to stay behind and perform surgeries on the soldiers. She does not have to brave the enemy's artillery fire like a health worker to go to the most intense fighting place and carry the injured soldiers off their backs.
After weighing the balance, Sokov nodded and said: "Okay, Asya, since you are willing to go to Lugansk, then I will agree to your request and let you join this team. The remaining candidates of the team
, it’s up to you to choose.”
Asiya had already planned on forming a team, so when Sokov agreed to her joining the team and let her choose the candidates, she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
When she ran to select personnel, Pavlov said to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, there shouldn't be any danger in going to Luhansk this time. Let Asiya get some training. If there is a chance in the future, she can be promoted."
She holds the position of associate dean.”
Seeing that Pavlov's starting point was to consider himself and Portia, Sokov really couldn't say what he said. He could only say a few perfunctory words and then ordered him: "Comrade Dean, although there is a chance of fighting,
It’s not big, but the necessary medicines are essential. See if you can immediately arrange manpower to prepare enough medicines and equipment for the small team.”
"Comrade Commander, you are right. The team still needs a large amount of medicines and equipment. I will order people to prepare them right now."
Sokov stayed in the room, muttering to himself: "Luhansk is not a peaceful place. When Asya selects people, she must not single out Ada. Otherwise, if a battle breaks out, Ada will have to brave the hail of bullets.
, go to the area where the fighting happened to rescue the wounded. If something happens to her, I really don’t know how to explain it to Rokossovsky."
Sometimes the more worried you are about something, the more it happens. Sokov was worried that Asiya would pick Ada, but when he saw that Ada was among the people chosen, he stamped his feet anxiously.
Asiya did not see Sokov's embarrassment, but explained to him: "Misha, General Rokossovsky asked me to take good care of Ada. I feel that if Ada stays by my side, I will not
I failed to live up to the general’s expectations of me.”
