"It seems you have guessed it!" Yang Mingzhi responded confidently, "I won't tell you the history of our army's battle with the Romanian Army's 1st Armored Division last year. In short, my soldiers and I are not afraid of the Romanian Army.
, and are still eager to fight with them! These stupid Romanians, as long as they dare to go to Slavtich, then destroy them! How can we let these enemies who send us weapons and ammunition let them go? "
"But! Doesn't this violate the orders of your superiors? Is this really a good idea?"
Yang Mingzhi shook his head: "Our Comrade Ponomarenko is not in Belarus, let alone Ukraine. He knows too little about the fighting situation here! It's like he ordered our army to liberate Slavdich, but he didn't even know that the Romanian army's attack target was also
This city! You think, can our Soviet Red Army abandon the liberated city?"
"No! This is definitely not possible!" Miroshniko replied without even thinking.
Because Stalin and the Military Commission had long ago ordered the Soviet troops defending the cities in each city to fight the fascist invaders to the end, with people in the cities! And the liberated cities must also strengthen their city defenses. Whoever dares to force the enemy
If you choose to retreat under pressure, the outcome will be a shooting!
Yang Mingzhi nodded with satisfaction: "So, how can we retreat? I will follow the orders of my superiors and properly send your guerrilla brigade across the river. This process is very safe, you can rest assured! As for the work of defending the city,
This is the matter of our 63rd Group Army! According to my plan, you will rest until eight o'clock tomorrow morning and then set off to retreat, and I will send capable generals to escort you away!"
Evacuating to a safe place was what Miroshniko wanted, but he was moved by Yang Mingzhi's words!
"Comrade Lieutenant General! I would like to ask, how many troops do you currently have? I believe you can defeat the Romanian army, but I am also very worried about the excessive casualties of our soldiers! If you don't mind, I also hope that you can defeat the Roman army."
Send some troops to coordinate operations! After all, this is also an order from above. Comrade Lieutenant General, starting from tonight, our 17th Guerrilla Brigade will be incorporated into the 63rd Group Army's battle order. In other words, the soldiers and I are your subordinates.
.”
Saying that, Miroshniko suddenly stood up and raised his hands in salute.
"Sit down!" Yang Mingzhi paused and said: "I have ordered the entire guerrilla republic to enter a state of combat readiness. Our army's combat strength exceeds that of Luo's army! There are currently more than 5,000 troops in this city.
, these are elite troops! In terms of combat effectiveness alone, I think they are better than a full infantry division of the Romanian army! We alone are enough to defeat the enemy, so you can safely retreat to the swamp! I know you are eager to fight.
, want revenge, but your soldiers are so weak, and their weapons and equipment are not as good as ours! I think you should go back and recuperate, your guerrilla brigade will have a completely new look in the future!"
"But! I..."
"Are you unwilling?" Yang Mingzhi became a little impatient. He yawned widely and said, "It's too late. The sun will rise in more than two hours! After dawn, you and your people will
We must evacuate. If you are really unwilling, then continue to tell me the information about the Roman army. For example, where is the vanguard of their pursuit of you, the weapons and equipment of the soldiers of the Roman army, and the situation of their heavy weapons!"
"Okay!" Miroshniko sighed helplessly, "I know all these, the details of the Romanian army's weapons and equipment, and even the composition of their field rations. Especially the recent marching habits of the Romanian army, and the recent Romanian army's marching habits.
position! I can conclude that they will not continue marching until dawn. If you send a reconnaissance unit into the outskirts of the forest, traces of Luo Jun will be found at noon tomorrow at the earliest! The pursuit of those guys is getting slower and slower.
.”
Know yourself and know the enemy and you will win every battle. Of course Yang Mingzhi looked down on the Romanians. It was absolutely impossible for these guys to consciously throw away their weapons, ammunition and other baggage, especially to take off their shoes and clothes, leaving only a pair of white underwear.
.To obtain these precious supplies, we can only kill them first, or directly use bayonets to force them to surrender!
After Miroshniko's detailed explanation, Yang Mingzhi quickly understood the weapons and equipment of this Romanian army.
The ordinary soldiers of this Romanian army are only equipped with ordinary Czech rifles, and the bullets they use can be used by the German army. Their field troops lack machine guns. An ordinary infantry battalion and an ordinary infantry platoon only have one ZB26 light machine gun and one
There are 60 mm caliber mortars. Only the firepower enhancement company directly under the battalion has 16 machine guns, two of which are heavy machine guns. As for artillery, there are also four 81.4 mm mortars.
This kind of firepower configuration must be really bad for the German army. After all, the German army has a powerful MG34 in one squad. For the large-scale RPG-equipped troops under Yang Mingzhi, the disadvantage in firepower is too great.
Therefore, Miroshniko's evaluation of the Romanian army was very bad: "Their equipment is not as good as the regular Red Army troops, and their army coordination is not good. The Romanian army has some heavy artillery units, but when they pursued us, our army never encountered them.
Too heavy artillery bombardment! I can conclude that the enemy's light troops have left their baggage and heavy weapons troops far behind!"
Yang Mingzhi nodded with satisfaction, this was almost as he expected.
Miroshniko continued: "The enemies chasing us do not have many troops, and they do not have heavy weapons! They will also arrive in the forest soon. If you want to lead the troops to fight against them, you should be able to defeat them! However, I am still worried,
If a large enemy force arrives and they launch a large-scale attack, will our army be able to successfully stop it?"
Yang Mingzhi murmured in his heart that he would be able to defeat the Roman army, and defeat him with a killing blow. He responded: "Very good! I thank you for your advice. The Romanians should arrive at the edge of the forest around noon today at the earliest! Your intelligence
It's very important and I will take necessary measures soon."
"Okay, this is all the information I can provide!" Miroshniko changed the topic: "So how are you going to arrange for us? I have 2,900 people. Everyone is hungry and tired. What I want to know most is
How do you get us across the Dnieper?"
"Don't worry about crossing the river. Your people will have a good meal after dawn. I will send troops to escort you to Misi Ferry. We have prepared a large number of boats and rafts at this ferry. It may only take you two hours.
All the people can cross the river."
"What? Two hours? That's the Dnieper!"
Miroshniko looked suspicious, but Yang Mingzhi asked: "Do you still question it? How long do you think it took us more than 5,000 people to cross the river? Did we swim here?!"
Yang Mingzhi tapped his fingers on the table and said with a smile: "Your retreat arrangement is very simple. You just need to bring your people to the ferry. Our reserve troops waiting there have prepared a large amount of food and other supplies! Besides,
We will also send people to transport the loot we captured in this city properly. Please rest assured, I can guarantee that after the sun goes down, your more than two thousand people will be able to reach the absolute safe zone!"
Is there any reason not to believe it? Miroshniko really just wants to end this hasty escape. The general has prepared the retreat of the guerrilla brigade. As long as he obeys his orders, the guerrilla brigade will be absolutely safe!
This is a great thing!
But Miroshniko thought for a while, and his sense of honor and desire for revenge made him feel that he should not withdraw so simply.
He boldly suggested: "Comrade General! I already believe that you can properly send my people to the safe area. I have only one request now."
"Oh? Say it!"
"I want to stay!"
"What? Are you staying?" Yang Mingzhi was shocked: "You are the commander of the guerrilla brigade. You should be with your troops and lead them to the safe zone!"
