"Okay! Okay! Since there are potential pursuers and the enemies on the front have heavy weapons, they have increased their manpower to search for guerrillas in the forest. It will become more and more dangerous to stay here!" Yang Mingzhi summed it up briefly.
He thought about his current situation for a while and made a decision.
"I have decided to separate the troops now! The troops are divided into two parts. One part will attack Bainiu Village. If possible, all the enemies will be wiped out and the stronghold will be burned. The other part will move eastward and return to Novgomel.
!
Balzen, Rychev, and Bondanov, your three battalions will participate in the main attack.
Joshua, Peronsky, Medvedev, your people escort everyone home."
The order was so straightforward that Joshua couldn't control his emotions and interrupted rudely: "Why us?! Comrade Commander, this is different from the situation agreed before departure."
"This is an order! Qiao Shuya!" Yang Mingzhi criticized.
"Okay! This is an order! I will execute the order."
She was obviously unconvinced, so Yang Mingzhi changed his tone to reassure: "Qiao Shuya, don't think that escorting non-combatants is an easy job. Our new friends and Balzen have all reported that the enemy has intensified their search efforts in the forest.
Although we don't think the enemy has any fighting ability, they at least have guns. They can kill unarmed people effortlessly, which is a fatal threat to us. Your job is to ensure that they are foolproof. If you encounter the enemy, listen now.
Good my order! Once you find the enemy, don't think about anything else and fight immediately!"
Joshua is not a shrew, she has a very high IQ. After weighing the pros and cons of her current situation, she finds that the burden on her shoulders is indeed not small.
After all, she is a woman. Yang Mingzhi thought about it again and slightly revised his order: "Forget it, forget it! Balzen, your Tokov company will be assigned to the team that returns early. Tokov is very good at fighting.
It's a tough battle, but with him here, I hope our women can feel at ease."
Joshua originally wanted to jump up and retort, but in her opinion this was simply sexism, so she chose to endure it. After all, more elite soldiers would protect non-combatants, and the non-combatants would be safer.
…
The action plan has changed. The troops have rested here all morning, and many people took the opportunity to take a nap. Now everyone is in high spirits.
According to the plan just designated, the people of Paul's Black Bear Brigade, classified as non-combatants, started marching at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The time has not yet come, and the civilians have begun the intense work of cleaning up the belongings.
The rescued children naturally had to leave with the others, so Yang Mingzhi called Liu Hongxiu to his side alone.
The soldiers who participated in the attack on Bainiu Village took the time to check their weapons and equipment, inventory ammunition and report statistics. Many people also pulled out their firearms strips, poked at the linen balls, and repeatedly brushed the barrels of their guns.
Yang Mingzhi leaned on the big tree, smoking cigarettes and chatting with several of his battalion commanders until Yang Tao and Natasha brought the little Liu Hongxiu over.
"Comrades, please continue chatting." Yang Mingzhi waved his hand, put out the half-smoked cigarette and stuffed it into his pocket, then called the girls aside.
Regarding the current situation, Liu Hongxiu still didn't know what had happened. In short, everyone had to go to the east. It was said that there was a comfortable place there, which was absolutely safe. She thought that she could go to a safe place hand in hand with her sister, but in the end, her sister actually had to carry her
Guns on the battlefield.
Yang Mingzhi smiled and pinched Liu Hongxiu's little face affectionately: "Little pepper, you look much better now."
"I feel much better, uncle."
"Great! So do you know what fighting is?"
This question was very abrupt. The girl was stunned for a moment and then understood immediately: "I know about the war! Uncle! I heard them say that this unit has to go to war and has to be separated from everyone temporarily. Could it be that uncle is very worried about me?
Call me here at this time."
"No! You only guessed half of it right!" Yang Mingzhi paused and asked slightly embarrassed: "Little pepper, answer me honestly, would you be afraid if I took you with me in a war?"
In this era of China, many children aged 12 or 13 have become anti-Japanese soldiers. When the nation is facing destruction, children must also take up arms. It’s just that these children are basically boys, and girls of this age are afraid of listening.
The sound of gunfire makes me wet my pants!
Liu Hongxiu very simply denied all Yang Mingzhi's speculations.
"Uncle! I will try my best not to be afraid! In the Soviet Union, I have joined Lenin's Young Pioneers. I have not personally taken up arms, at least I have seen real battles. I answered truthfully, the battle is around me, how can I not be afraid?
But I can do it without being scared out of my mind, and I will never pee my pants and my legs are shaking! I won’t let you down!”
"Very good! She is indeed a hot girl!" Yang Mingzhi clapped his hands with satisfaction, "Dear you, you are fourteen years old this year, so why don't I introduce you? When I return to Novgomel, I will go to the Communist Youth League branch to introduce you.
You apply. From now on you will be a member of the Soviet Communist Youth League! Because joining the Soviet Communist Youth League also requires you to have something tangible. This time the troops are going to attack Bainiu Village. You are also a participant in this battle. In your resume
This will be an important achievement!"
"This...is this really possible?!" Liu Hongxiu knew that it was not easy to join the Lenin Communist Youth League of the Soviet Union. She would not be able to become an activist in the league at all, and joining with military merit would mean risking her life!
Destiny has changed. Liu Hongxiu is very courageous. She smartly realizes that now is the moment to give her destiny. She has never been a vase.
She mustered up her courage: "Uncle! Since you insist, you might as well give me a gun. Since I want to participate in this battle, at least fire one shot. Otherwise, I can only be regarded as a bystander!"
"Oh? You still want to play with a gun?!" Funny, really funny, Yang Mingzhi looked at this little girl, she was so short, Mosin Nagant stood up, and the muzzle of the gun even reached her lips!
Liu Hongxiu pouted and said stubbornly: "Uncle! I have seen guns before. My father taught me how to use Hanyang-made rifles. In the Soviet Union, I also participated in the school shooting club. How to operate the Soviet rifles?
know!"
She never mentioned this situation! Yang Mingzhi's eyes lit up. Could it be that this girl is still a potential sniper? At least some of the children in the youth camp were members of the school shooting club in peacetime. They were exposed to more firearms.
Quickly trained as a precision marksman.
Maybe Liu Hongxiu has good marksmanship, but looking at her current body shape, she looks a little frail and it's hard to trust her. Mosin-Nagant's full-power bullets and huge recoil will probably shatter her fragile shoulders!
Then I thought about it, she is Chinese, and there is nothing wrong with Chinese people getting together! This child is stubborn and seems to have some strength, so let her show some strength.
Yang Mingzhi made a decision and said in Russian: "Besika, Natasha, now I temporarily announce that your sister Periya will temporarily join your sniper team."
Yang Tao and Natasha didn't have much opinion on this decision. Anyway, the snipers were operating from the rear. According to the previous tactics, there was no threat to the snipers. They had always been hiding and killing the enemy wantonly.
.
"Very good!" Yang Mingzhi was very happy to see that the two girls did not object. "Periya, your job is to load the magazines for the sisters for the time being, and you will also become a shooter when necessary. I hope that you, the girl, will do the same.
As a sharpshooter, if you can kill a few Nazis, I will even apply for a medal for you!"
Little Liu Hongxiu, several of her classmates were killed by the Nazis. In her young mind, the seeds of revenge had already sprouted. Yesterday morning, she was still a prisoner of the Nazis. Those hateful men always touched her buttocks.
Mention, simply did not push too far. Now, the opportunity to take revenge in person is already available!
Liu Hongxiu followed the example of an adult and saluted: "I will definitely do a good job! Chief!"
