Chapter 382: Encountering the Tchaikov Partisan Brigade
It was completely beyond Balzen’s expectation to meet friendly forces on the way. Δ』
They were large in number and seemed to have combat effectiveness, but this meeting was terrible. Both sides mistakenly thought that the other side was the enemy. The reconnaissance company's desperate charge was like a tiger descending the mountain. The strafing on the way killed and injured more than 30 people on the opposite side.
people.
It wasn't until the two armies were almost at hand-to-hand combat that they realized that everyone was making a mistake and almost saw a red bullet in their bayonets.
After a brief conversation with the person opposite, Balzen ordered his men to put away their weapons and turn off the safety.
He announced his home address: "I am Nikita Ivanovich Balzen, commander of the reconnaissance company of the 284th Guards Infantry Division. I have been ordered to carry out the task of attacking the German airport."
This self-report was so extraordinary that the soldiers in front of them were stunned.
"What? Our name is very scary? You are the Nayizhi guerrillas again. I want to meet your captain."
"I am the captain!" came a voice from the crowd.
All the soldiers put away their weapons and moved out of the way, and a middle-aged man wearing a black leather jacket walked out.
He looked at the reconnaissance company and saw that these people were all wearing white combat cloaks and white cloth on their helmets. Even the main color of the bags they were carrying was white. The ground in the forest was still covered with a lot of ice and snow, just like this
The troops lie down, and I am afraid only the eyes of an eagle can recognize this camouflage.
The middle-aged man asked again carefully: "You just claimed to be the 284th Guards Division. Is this true?"
Balzen knew that if he just said a hundred words without any basis, the other party would probably not believe it. Of course, in enemy-occupied areas, guerrillas are in the most dangerous state. When encountering friendly forces, they must first screen them.
, not to mention that in this meeting, no one of my own was lost, but many people of the other party were killed.
Even if it's a big mistake, the cost of accidental damage is terrible.
Balzen kept an eye on it and said: "I saw that you people are all wearing the same military uniforms as us." He immediately took off his cloak, revealing the Soviet winter uniform. "Now you see,
Our military uniforms are the same. However, as soldiers, according to infantry regulations, soldier IDs must be carried with you. Since you are wearing military uniforms, you cannot be militiamen."
The middle-aged man nodded and said: "What you said is correct. But you people are also dressed in a very special way. What era are you in? Why are you still wearing leggings?"
"This is so that you won't be tired during a long march. So what? Where are your documents?" Balzen continued to ask.
"I'll show you your ID right away, and yours must be shown too. But before that, I want to see your shoes."
What's wrong with the sole? Balzen did as he was told.
The middle-aged man nodded, "Military shoes are our standard, there is no problem. Now let's show our IDs together."
The two parties showed their IDs to each other. Balzen's ID did not change. He still had the same position as before. The most important column was the serial number, which clearly printed the 284th Infantry Division.
The title of Guards came later, and it is this simple certificate that proves that this small unit is part of the 284th Guards Division.
The middle-aged man's body was trembling. This certificate was enough to explain everything. He showed his certificate, which was very special. It turned out to be a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. His name was Ivan Andreevich Chaikov.
Is a political commissar.
The documents can also be forged, but the staples of the two documents were corroded (the staples of the German army were stainless steel, and the staples of the Soviet army were just ordinary cast iron wire). Balzen relied on this to completely believe the man named Chaiko.
Husband's person.
Chaikov was more active. He held Balzen's hand and said excitedly: "I never expected that we just planned to find you, but we met here!"
Balzen was confused when he heard this. After all, everyone was an ally, so he was not so reserved.
Tchaikov excitedly held his hand and said as he walked: "In fact, you must know us. I will take you to meet someone."
The misunderstanding has been resolved, and Balzen completely believes these people. In fact, he does not need to doubt anything anymore, because these people are indeed guerrillas. The people in military uniforms must be soldiers who fled into the forest in large numbers after the Battle of Minsk. Because
Under the coat he was wrapped in, he was still wearing a summer military uniform!
I'm afraid these soldiers are the only ones with real combat effectiveness in this guerrilla group. Other than that, they are basically ordinary people who are forced to be armed. Here are not just adult men, but some teenagers and girls who are obviously children, also holding weapons.
In addition to armed personnel, there are also many unarmed civilians here, some of whom are simply rural women. The image of them holding babies is difficult to associate with the guerrillas.
Chaikov said to Balzen: "You can order your people to disband. The misunderstanding is over and we are all friends."
This was said to the personnel on both sides. The soldiers, including Natasha, all carried out Balzen's order. All the guns were carried on their backs, and many people had already started chatting with these guerrilla fighters.
In front of the reconnaissance company, the full picture of this huge guerrilla group was displayed. The soldiers whispered among themselves and got their exact situation from the guerrillas.
Because of the fighting with the enemy's small force during the retreat, some soldiers were lost. What's worse is that some civilians who followed the retreat were affected and died. Of the original 1,200 people, just over a thousand were left.
To make matters worse, Tchaikov's guerrillas had just been defeated in a self-defeating attack. More than thirty people were defeated. Some died on the spot, some were wailing, and their strength and strength were further reduced.
The soldiers of the reconnaissance company felt very guilty because this misunderstanding might have been avoidable.
Natasha's mentality was the same. She was a child herself, and she also saw that there were boys and girls about her own age in this team. Their faces didn't look good, and they looked sallow and thin. They must be hungry.
.
The injured people were still wailing, and several young women suddenly shouted loudly: "New comrades from the 284th Division, do you have any medicine?! Are there any military doctors?"
Natasha shouted without thinking: "Yes!"
The women moved upon hearing the sound and grabbed Natasha's arm. This move was very impulsive, as if they had found a life-saving straw. Natasha followed them and staggered to the place where the wounded soldier was lying.
, the bodies have been classified, and some people are digging in the soil, apparently digging graves.
There are still ten people who are not dead, and each wounded person is surrounded by several people.
Natasha was shocked to see that a girl about her own age was also injured. A boy was holding her wound and crying bitterly. Natasha was shocked to see that the girl had been shot in the abdomen because the blood had turned red.
stomach.
"If I encounter a German, will I end up like this girl?" Natasha couldn't help but be stunned. She is not afraid of sacrifice, but she is too worried about the person who loves her if she is sacrificed.
She will also fall into extreme grief. This girl is almost dying. She looked terrible before she died, and the boy is crying. This must be her lover. "If I die, sir and Bessika will definitely
It will be sad.”
Natasha's behavior made the women very dissatisfied. One of them simply yelled: "Aren't you a military doctor? Your compatriots are bleeding! Go and save them!" Because he was anxious, the man simply pushed Natasha.
Bundle.
The girl didn't pay attention, so she just pushed and fell down.
This frightened Igor, as if someone was going to harm her intentionally. He grabbed the young woman's arm and roared with a ferocious face: "Only our commander can order her! You are harming her now, right?
Do you want to die? Who do you think you are?"
Igor's angry look was very scary, even scarier than the Germans. The women were stunned and said nothing, and one of them sat down on the snow.
Natasha got up and knelt down, turned to Igor and said angrily: "Comrade, don't be angry. It was my negligence. I should have rescued my compatriots immediately. After all, their injuries were all investigated by us.
Even caused it.”
Igor nodded and looked at the women with sharp eyes: "You all heard it. Her name is Natasha and she is our military doctor. It seems that you lack medicine and even more doctors. Now listen to her orders and treat the wounded like this
There is still a possibility of survival.” (To be continued.) 8
