On the last night before the operation, there must be a large number of soldiers who are so excited that they suffer from insomnia!
This is a battle, and someone will die in a battle. Yang Mingzhi estimates that no one will think about sacrifice. What they think more about is how to use advanced weapons to unilaterally eliminate the German army, and how to eat all the military rations issued.
Light and whether it can still be enjoyed in the future.
Yang Mingzhi couldn't take care of others, so his wife had to take care of them. She tossed and turned, and she couldn't contain her excitement because she wanted to rest, as if tomorrow was not a military operation but a forest hike.
"Okay, okay! You girl, sleep peacefully, you have to march a long way tomorrow!"
These instructions fell on deaf ears.
Star Tao leaned next to her husband and muttered: "We will set off tomorrow! Let's kill the train. Maybe we can find a lot of useful things in the carriage."
"Hey! Is this war just about hunting for treasure?" Yang Mingzhi pinched her neck and asked her to lie down obediently. He said harshly: "My dear, after all, we are going to fight, in other words, we are going to kill people. We are going to kill those Germans.
!Germans are human beings too! You have to be serious about this!”
"Yes! I'm serious!"
She just talked casually, which made Yang Mingzhi feel a little uncomfortable.
I have always been worried that she would be lost in the war and become a "killing machine". Now it seems that the situation has not changed much. According to the long-term propaganda in the army, the Axis Army has been described as a "man-eating beast".
They are on the same level as tigers, so there is no sense of guilt in killing a beast.
The next day, the day of expedition finally arrived.
When the trumpeter blew the morning routine, Yang Mingzhi and his wife immediately got up. They quickly finished dressing, carried the heavy luggage they had prepared, and stepped out of their homes.
Outdoors, Abram's guards have been prepared. There is a platoon of elite guard companies who will protect the commander's safety during this operation. They are also fully armed, and each one is like a snail carrying a heavy shell.
.
"Report to the commander! The guard platoon has been assembled! Please give instructions!"
Yang Mingzhi glanced at Abram and ordered to advance to the assembly point. At the end, he looked affectionately at his locked home and couldn't help but sigh: "It's another expedition! By the time I come back, it will be already
It’s May.”
Because it was the day of the expedition, today's breakfast was extremely rich, and all the soldiers participating in the operation were very full.
After dinner, at the assembly point at the training ground, the troops participating in the operation quickly assembled. Carambola and Natasha met here, including their full-time recorder Igor.
More than 2,000 people lined up in neat lines, and around the training ground, more than 5,000 soldiers and civilians were watching.
Dragging his injured arm, Kharkiv led a group of youth battalions to see him off. The boy's eyes naturally focused on Natasha, whom he had a crush on, and looked at this heroic girl. Like everyone else, she was carrying
Wearing a green steel helmet and leggings, her legs were as slender as a crane. It was hard to imagine that she was carrying a huge luggage on her back.
His eyes are also indispensable for glancing at the respected commander. This former Chinese commander has become a Belarusian, and this identity makes him more friendly.
Yang Mingzhi stood in front of a group of generals, and behind him were a group of senior officers and officials.
After all, this operation is not trivial. As the most senior official, Abram must show a gesture. In fact, he does not need to say anything, as long as he stands here, he is showing his support.
The four battalions are the main force of the battle, and Abram's platoon can also be used as elite soldiers at critical moments. In addition, non-combatants such as the army's medical team and donkey herders are controlled by the wartime headquarters. Each battalion and headquarters have communication teams.
Keep in touch. With this configuration, the unit is more like an infantry regiment.
Even if the plan is to set off immediately after the troops are assembled, in this spectacular scene, with more than 2,000 people standing majestically, and thousands of people watching and saluting, how can you not say a few impassioned words and then leave?
Yang Mingzhi stood at a high place. This time he could control the electric loudspeaker and broadcast loudspeakers to all the people. He also showed his attitude to the entire blacksmith village and even the entire Novgomel.
"Comrades! Today is a good day for fighting! We will rush to the battlefield today! The enemy looks weak, but we are extremely strong!
But! We still have to be careful, the enemy's bullets are just as deadly. Therefore, I don't want anyone here to be left behind, and I don't want anyone to be injured and sacrificed in the battle. Comrades, follow me! No matter what the enemy is, under my command, defeat them
German!
I have nothing but wisdom, blood, hard work and sweat to dedicate to everyone.
Comrades will ask, what is the purpose of our war! Our purpose is to destroy the enemy's communication lines, rescue our compatriots in concentration camps, and destroy the German killing factory! To put it simply!, I will answer in one word: Victory! We
To strive for victory, no matter how high the cost or how long and difficult the road to victory, our army will win this battle. Next, we will carry out large-scale operations again and again.
We must strive for victory at any cost, because without victory there is no survival.
We will make the Germans suffer the pain they have inflicted on us, blood for blood, tooth for tooth!
Ula!"
This impromptu speech was just an adaptation of the famous sayings of some great historical figures, and these encouragements would reach people's hearts directly. The more Yang Mingzhi spoke, the more excited he became, and eventually he even started to cheer himself up.
The soldiers present shouted "Ula", and the enthusiasm spread throughout the blacksmith village.
At this moment, Salinchkin's spirit was extremely excited. He suppressed his excitement and walked to the trembling Yang Mingzhi, and suddenly patted his shoulder, causing his whole body to tremble.
"Berekov, what you said is so wonderful! It's so wonderful!"
Yang Mingzhi's face was still a little twitchy. He tried to keep his emotions stable, "Sure enough? I said it very well!"
"That's very good! I want to hold a rifle and fight the enemy with a bayonet!" After some joking, Yang Mingzhi's mood finally stabilized, and Salinchkin continued: "I think the troops can officially set off now!
Our army will win this operation, so don’t worry, we will support you from the rear. Even if the scale of the war becomes uncontrollable, at worst, we will all go into battle."
Yang Mingzhi nodded, and after giving Yevlov a wink, he made the final decision.
He continued shouting into the microphone: "Comrades! Action! Start! Everyone turn left and set off!"
Upon receiving this order, the entire army turned left in unison, more than two thousand pairs of leather shoes clicked together, and then began a neat tapping sound.
The two battalions of paratroopers at the head can be said to have the best military appearance. With their heads held high, they are full of power. The reconnaissance battalion and the female soldiers battalion follow closely behind, and at the end of the team are the baggage troops and non-combatants.
Yang Mingzhi was a little afraid of donkeys. After all, they were donkeys. If these beasts became stubborn, they would be difficult to serve. He had no other solution but to hope that these donkeys would always be obedient.
The crowd of onlookers made way out of the way, and the onlookers were also inspired by the pre-war agitation just now to see off these glorious Soviet Red Army soldiers.
Many villagers took the opportunity to take out the precious food that they were reluctant to eat.
According to regulations, the soldiers had no reason to accept this gift, but the people's demands had to be met. I saw that most of the food they provided was dried fish and meat, so there was no problem. It was also very important for the soldiers to supplement protein.
Yang Mingzhi and his guards ran to the head of the team. At this moment, a large number of children followed the soldiers' goose steps.
The team gradually leaves the residential area of Blacksmith Village and heads east. The team will no longer pass Catfish Village, but will go to the Pripet River Ferry closest to Blacksmith Village.
Because according to the previous order, Catfish Village Mayor Boboski received an order to build a floating bridge. This order is not difficult at all. It is just a matter of tying up some fishing boats with hemp rope and laying a layer of wooden boards. This project has been successfully completed.
After the troops had traveled fifteen kilometers, it was time to cross the river.
