The way home is also very long, and the troops have to be on guard while rushing. For safety, everyone has to walk through the forest. For confidentiality, they even have to avoid Soviet villages, because there are likely to be German troops stationed there.
This combat operation was mainly to seize supplies for the winter. As a result, the war became bigger and bigger, and finally a new feat was completed. However, how many clothes and bedding were collected?
This incident troubled Yang Mingzhi until a new night fell and the troops stopped to rest.
The forest was lit up in patches, and these bonfires were obscured by the leaves and difficult to see from a distance.
It is September now, and autumn has arrived in Belarus. Deep inland here, autumn has come earlier, and the cool breeze is blowing on a clear night. My whole body is warm under the light of the bonfire. I not only want to stretch my body, but this time
Untie the bandage around the mount's neck.
"Oh! Don't do this!"
This move was seen by Yang Tao, and she quickly stopped her with a frown on her expression.
She came over with two lunch boxes, which had already been filled with flour and water. The lunch boxes were hung on a Y-shaped shelf and were being burned by the flames, and she sat down next to her husband.
"You have to be careful. I'll be worried to death if the wound collapses. We don't have that many anti-inflammatory drugs, so we can only use penicillin, a snake oil, to hold it up." After that, she carefully used a rope to hang up her husband's neck.
Yang Mingzhi looked at her with a smile. This girl looked like a good wife and mother, which was very cute.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. It's your arm, but you're also wounded."
"It doesn't matter if it's mine, you don't have to worry."
Star Tao just sat cross-legged, leaning on her husband, looking at the beating flames, enjoying the warm feeling, it was very warm.
"Well, um. When you get to the village, brother, you shouldn't work too hard in the next few days. You need to heal your wounds."
"Okay, I'm glad you called me brother."
The girl smiled sweetly and said, "It always feels formal to call me husband, and you are much older than me."
Suddenly, a feeling of being called uncle by Loli emerged in his mind. Yang Mingzhi shrugged. He saw that the porridge was almost cooked.
The troops could still eat hot food on the way back. The simplest and most primitive way was to cook porridge directly with the captured flour. Some soldiers added a little sauerkraut, some salt, and even uneaten dry cheese.
.
Because a lot of German equipment was captured, the tableware was plentiful and the food was even more refined.
After a few sips, Yang Mingzhi felt that it tasted very good, and he would just eat a few baked potatoes later.
Suddenly, he remembered something very important and couldn't help but ask his wife beside him. "Where did you get this water, the water for cooking porridge, and where did you go just now?"
"Of course we went to the creek, and Natasha. Many soldiers went there, but you were the only one sitting on the ground as if in a daze."
The girl was still pouting, and then Yang Mingzhi remembered that he had been sitting down to rest for a long time. He couldn't help but emphasize one more thing: "The water in the creek is not very clean. It needs to be precipitated and filtered first."
, but also boiling water to kill bacteria.”
Yang Tao didn't quite understand what bacteria were, but she was Chinese after all and knew the importance of boiling water. These Maoist comrades were too wild. She remembered that when they were getting water before, many of them drank from the stream. In fact, this kind of thing
She didn't do much herself, and she didn't have to pay too much attention during the war. But now that her husband mentioned it, she still had to deal with it.
"Okay, anyway, the porridge has been boiled, and those invisible bugs you mentioned have been eliminated, right?"
"Yes." Yang Mingzhi smiled, "I'll say it again, those are called bacteria, and you need special tools to see them."
"Well, I must take a look when I get the chance. Also, brother, you are so knowledgeable."
"There will be a chance. When the war is over, you will only be twenty years old and can still go to school."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a familiar voice echoing her voice, that was Yelentina.
"She is twenty years old. She will be seventeen this year. What do you think? How many years will we end the war?"
Yang Mingzhi was startled and quickly turned around, only to see Elena leading Natasha back. What a coincidence. He let the history slip out of his mouth casually. Of course, no one would believe him, "Oh, war is definitely going to happen."
To end, I will use an analogy." Yang Mingzhi laughed, and Yelenjina was also happy.
"So, we are the winner of the war?"
"That's natural. Victory will eventually defeat evil, and we are the victorious party. But the road to victory may be full of thorns and man-eating beasts. Only through the most thrilling battle can we win."
Yelentina waved her hand: "You are a very polite person sometimes. Forget it, you and your wife continue to be in love. In my opinion, there is no need to let your wife go to school when she is twenty years old." She said.
He deliberately made a gesture that made Yang Guo feel a little embarrassed.
"Who knows? We have to have a child, and that will have to be after the war is won."
A few people were chatting and laughing around the campfire. Only the radio operator was still staring at the unfortunate radio station.
He held a manuscript written in pencil in his hand, and kept pressing the transmitter with his right hand. The breeze was blowing in the forest, and only the noise of the drops of Morse code brought a trace of disharmony.
Because the distance is very long and it is in a forest with many obstacles, the signal is always intermittent.
In Catfish Village, Yevlov has been paying close attention to the progress of the expeditionary force. Their location has been updated through new telecommunications on the map.
That night, they received the latest information, confirming that the troops were coming back.
"It's really gratifying. We have achieved another great victory in this battle." Fuming said excitedly while standing next to the map table.
"Yes, although we paid a lot of money, we also found old friends." Yevlov said.
"Yes, speaking of that day, we actually found other troops of the 284th Division in the forest, and our strength was replenished."
Hearing this, Yevlov shook his head helplessly. "That Belekov, he changed the battle plan temporarily. The plan was made by himself, but he changed it at any time, which made us very passive. But he
We still achieved great results, but this military operation was for Shuba! How many Shuba are there!"
Fuming smiled and waved his hands, and couldn't help but want to defend him. "We in the rear must not know the situation on the front line, and they must be involuntarily. They claim to have taken over the enemy's 707th Division headquarters and annihilated all senior commanders.
He shot the enemy division commander himself. These achievements were enough for that guy to win the Gold Star Medal and a bunch of other awards."
"Well, that guy has already gained a lot." Yevlov said happily, "That man, that Chinese, he has already won the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. That man is really a phoenix on the battlefield, and his deeds have been
The leader knows that the commendation is also given by the leader himself. I wonder if our leader or the Military Commission has any other rewards this time."
The 284th Division headquarters in Catfish Village is ready to welcome the triumphant army.
A few days ago, the troops who retreated successfully arrived. Among them were guerrillas and peaceful residents. They also dragged many livestock and carriages, and the horses acting as mules were also loaded with a mountain of supplies.
The clothes and bedding that the troops needed most have increased a lot. They arrived very timely, but whether they are enough will have to wait for them to return before making statistics. Because of the latest intelligence, the base camp of Catfish Village already knows who is on the way home.
There were more than 2,000 people in Lekov's group, and every able-bodied soldier was carrying heavy luggage, so that he was forced to slow down.
Yang Mingzhi led the troops to continue moving forward. They found the Pripet River and marched along the river. After another two days of trekking, they finally reunited with friendly troops.
Under the guidance of the militiamen who were responsible for reconnaissance and security on the outskirts of the base area, everyone crossed the river. More than two thousand people finally returned to the place where they started. They returned from the battle with a full load, and the tired faces of the soldiers also showed long-lost smiles.
"Everyone, try harder! Let's go home! Go home and eat meat!" Yang Mingzhi raised his right fist and roared loudly, and the whole army shouted "Ula!"
