"We have experience in crossing swamps!" Shulka said: "I even believe that many people in our army have experience in crossing swamps!"
As he spoke, Shulka turned his attention to Admiral Kilponos.
"Of course!" General Kilponos nodded: "Many of our soldiers come from villages and towns near the swamp, and they are familiar with the swamp!"
"We can use these people as guides!" Shulka said.
"So, what happens after time travel?" Admiral Kilponos asked.
"Bombing trains, blowing up bridges, laying mines on roads, and sneak attacks on airports, warehouses, factories..." Shulka said: "Everything, observe the enemy's loopholes, and look for every possible opportunity!"
"This may be feasible, Comrade General!" Major Gavrilov was persuaded by Shulka: "We have many advantages, such as supporting our people and familiarity with the terrain, just like the Ukrainian rebels organized
Like a guerrilla!"
"So..." General Kilponos said: "Why can't the Germans deal with our guerrillas the same way you deal with the guerrillas?"
"Because that means they need to invest a huge amount of troops in the rear!" Shulka said: "Moreover, even if we used some methods in Odessa, we still couldn't stop the guerrilla attack... When we came,
Almost killed at the hands of guerrillas!"
"There will always be loopholes!" Major Gavrilov said: "There is no unbreakable line of defense, and there is no seamless defense either!"
"The Germans' Blitzkrieg proves this!" Shulka added another fire: "That's why they always attack. We can't gain an advantage on the battlefield because we don't have air superiority and tanks can't gain an advantage.
, then why not take an active offensive in the rear, where their aircraft and tanks are useless?”
Shulka actually said it was good. At this time, the Soviet aircraft and tanks were not only unable to gain an advantage, but it would be an exaggeration to say that they were completely defeated.
But of course he couldn't say that, especially at this sensitive time, otherwise he might be caught by some people with ulterior motives and labeled as disrupting the morale of the military.
After a moment of silence, Admiral Kilponos nodded and said: "You have convinced me, and it seems that there is no loss to us...because we can do both at the same time!"
Admiral Kirponos was right. On the one hand, he continued to attack the east bank of the Dnieper River according to Moscow's orders, and on the other hand, he formed a guerrilla force according to Shulka's plan.
In this way, there is no need to disobey orders and wait until the results of guerrilla tactics are achieved before reporting the situation to Moscow and then making changes.
Of course, this requires the guerrillas to act quickly, otherwise Kiev will collapse and they are still training... which will not help.
"Moreover!" Admiral Kilponos said: "In winter, it is in line with strategic needs to attack their supply lines before winter comes!"
This is of course, and Moscow is also making preparations in this regard, because they have implemented the policy of "strengthening the walls and clearing the country" around Moscow.
"Of course you are in charge of this force!" General Kilponos looked at the two men: "Do you think so?"
"Yes, Comrade General!"
Shulka and Major Gavrilov responded unanimously. They knew they couldn't refuse, so they simply agreed without saying a word.
"Very good!" General Kilponos looked to the side, and then called: "Major Varenka!"
"Yes, Comrade General!" A staff officer quickly put down the documents in his hand and walked quickly to General Kilponos.
"This is Major Gavrilov, and this is Second Lieutenant Shulka!" General Kilponos introduced to Varenka: "I think you have known them for a long time!"
"Yes, of course!" Major Varenka took the initiative to shake hands with the two of them.
"Major Gavrilov and Second Lieutenant Shulka were ordered to form a secret force!" Admiral Kilponos said: "You are responsible for cooperating with them, I mean... providing everything they need, including troops, understand.
?"
"Yes, Comrade General!"
"Comrade General, can I make a request?" Shulka asked.
Admiral Kilponos was a little puzzled.
He ordered Major Varenka to cooperate with Majors Shulka and Gavrilov, which implicitly meant that he could provide any reasonable requests.
But Shulka still asked this, which means that this may be an unreasonable request or it is something Varenka cannot do at his level.
"Tell me what the request is?" Admiral Kilponos asked.
"I need an instructor!" Shulka said: "And he must cooperate with me!"
Needing an instructor is a trivial matter, but asking him to cooperate with Shulka... is a bit difficult.
Because in principle, political workers belong to another system and do not belong to each other.
Just like the Marshal of the Soviet Union, he had to be careful when meeting the king of snitches, Mekhlis.
After thinking about it, General Kilponos nodded and said: "I will tell the political commissar about this matter. As for whether I will cooperate with you..."
Shulka nodded clearly.
Major Gavrilov felt a little strange about this, so as soon as he walked out of the headquarters, he asked in a low voice: "Are you crazy, Shulka, to actually want an instructor?"
"I have to do this, Major!" Shulka said: "Otherwise our unit may not be able to be formed!"
"Why?" Major Gavrilov asked.
"Because of Order No. 270!" Shulka replied: "It requires that no one is allowed to escape, but guerrilla warfare requires them to 'escape' at any time..."
Then Major Gavrilov understood.
There is a contradiction here: the movement or retreat of guerrillas according to combat needs can easily be regarded as an escape, and then according to Order No. 270, anyone who sees such "escape" behavior has the right to shoot him...
As a result, there will be a situation like what Shulka said, where the troops cannot be formed.
The reason is very simple. If you join the guerrillas, you will either die in the hands of the enemy or in the hands of your own people. You may even be accused of being a traitor or a coward... Of course, no one wants to do it.
In addition, these Shulka, Major Gavrilov's words don't count. They need an instructor to "certify" them, which means to make the soldiers believe that there will be no problems.
Instructors were assigned the next day.
What Shulka and Major Gavrilov didn't expect was that the person assigned to them was deputy instructor Olga.
"Comrade Shulka!" the deputy instructor knocked on the door of Shulka's dormitory and said, "I heard that you need an instructor? I came here from Odessa overnight!"
Shulka couldn't help but be stunned, then showed a bitter smile and said: "Yes, Comrade Deputy Instructor, we do need an instructor! Thank you for your hard work, I asked you to come from Odessa..."
"This is what I should do!" the deputy instructor replied. He even reached out and shook Shulka's hand: "I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future!"
