Major Gavrilov obviously discovered these weaknesses, so he walked around outside the bunker worriedly, and from time to time he called the soldiers inside the bunker to let them see if they could find him.
"Which unit is responsible for this bunker?" While inspecting Shulka, Major Gavrilov shouted from outside: "Are you ready?"
"It can be said that you are ready, Comrade Major!" Shulka replied: "I am in charge of this place, three companies, two platoons and one squad!"
"Oh, Shulka!" Major Gavrilov immediately recognized Shulka's voice: "What does 'can be said' mean?"
"I'm worried that our bunkers won't be able to function!" Shulka replied: "The Germans will look for blind spots for our firepower, and then attack from the blind spots. This is impossible to prepare for!"
Major Gavrilov was stunned for a moment, these words spoke to his heart.
After a while, Major Gavrilov walked back to the bunker while patting the dust on his body and said: "Yes, Shulka, you are right. Do you want to bet a pack of cigarettes..."
As he spoke, he waved a pack of cigarettes in his hand. Like last time, it was a pack of German cigarettes.
Shulka didn't feel anything at all.
Although he knew that German cigarettes were a hot commodity in the Soviet army... During the war, soldiers were under great pressure and needed cigarettes to relieve stress. On the other hand, Soviet cigarettes were hand-rolled Mahe tobacco, and the quality of the cut tobacco was uneven and the taste was worse.
Of course, good German cigarettes became the treasure in the hearts of soldiers.
Sulka's mind was all about how to survive, and his requirements for cigarettes were not that high. The actors and other subordinates' eyes widened when they saw the cigarette in the major's hand.
"What are you betting on, Comrade Major?" Shulka asked.
"Bet you can solve this problem!" said Major Gavrilov.
"This is impossible!" Shulka laughed: "The bunker walls and gun emplacements have been fixed, and it is too late to change them now!"
Major Gavrilov said nothing, but raised the cigarette in his hand.
"I surrender!" Shulka replied.
"No, comrade squad leader!" A group of subordinates screamed: "You can't admit defeat!"
"It's not a big deal, is it?"
…
"If it's not a big problem, you can still bet?" Shulka said: "I believe the major just wants to solve the problem, and doesn't care who solves it!"
"That's right, Shulka!" The major nodded in agreement, and then turned his attention to the others.
But others were frightened immediately.
"Comrade Major!" the thief said with an apologetic smile: "What we mean is that this is not a big problem for Shulka!"
"Yes, you must know that he is Shulka!" the actor said: "Our escape hero..."
"What?" Shulka cast a puzzled look at the actor and asked, "Okunev, what kind of escape hero?"
"Oh, it's nothing!" The actor then realized that he had let slip: "You led us... and successfully escaped, didn't you?"
"So you gave me this nickname? Escape Hero?"
"It's not us, it's them. I also heard what others said!"
"That's a breakout, a breakout!"
"Oh, yes, of course!" The actor nodded hurriedly: "Breakout, breakout hero is more suitable, I will correct them next time!"
Shulka rolled his eyes, knowing that he couldn't escape this nickname... Nicknames are not something you can change if you want, because they were given to you by others.
"It seems that I can't give away this pack of cigarettes!" Gavrilov shook his head in disappointment, took out one and held it in his mouth, and handed another one to Shulka.
"Major..." The actor and his subordinates looked on eagerly.
"Well!" the major pretended not to know, and asked as he lit matches and Shulka lit cigarettes for each other: "Is there anything you want to report?"
Of course, the soldiers did not dare to ask for anything more and could only sniff hard beside them.
"If you think of anything..." Major Gavrilov said: "Tell me as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Comrade Major!"
When Major Gavrilov turned to leave, he threw the cigarettes to the actors. The soldiers cheered and immediately started grabbing them.
At this time, Shulka saw a few country wooden houses in front of him, and suddenly thought of something...
"Major!" Shulka stopped Major Gavrilov who was about to leave: "I may have a solution!"
The method is actually very simple. If the internal structure and layout cannot be changed, then change the external structure.
Shulka raised his head towards the small wooden houses ahead.
"I don't understand what you mean!" Major Gavrilov asked puzzledly: "That's just an ordinary wooden house. There are many such wooden houses on the defense line. The people have already evacuated. You mean, we set up an ambush there.
?No no, they are too fragile..."
"No, Major!" Shulka replied, "I mean, why don't we turn the bunker into a cabin?"
"Turn the bunker into wood?" Gavrilov was stunned for a moment, then a smile quickly appeared on his face.
"You're right, Shulka!" Major Gavrilov patted Shulka on the shoulder: "It's not difficult at all to turn a bunker into a wooden house! What a great idea! This pack of cigarettes is worth it..."
Shulka looked at the major's leaving figure with some disbelief, and cursed secretly: "I'll go, this method is only worth a pack of cigarettes? And this pack of cigarettes has already been divided!"
"What are you talking about?" The actor didn't even understand. He asked blankly: "What kind of bunker is turned into a wooden house?"
Shulka didn't bother to explain to him, there was only smoke in his head.
The order came down quickly, and the bunker was fully camouflaged before dawn... The side of the concrete wall facing the enemy was laid with wooden boards and a roof was added to disguise it as a cabin.
Only then did the actor understand what this meant.
"But will this work?" the actor doubted: "They only need a few rounds to blow up these disguises!"
"You are making things simple, Comrade Okunev!" the veteran replied while busy nailing wooden boards outside the bunker: "They can indeed do this, but the problem is that there are many bunkers and many abandoned wooden houses. Unless they can
Blow up all the wooden houses and bunkers one by one, otherwise it will have no effect!"
The actor said "Oh" and nodded in understanding.
"What a great idea, comrade squad leader!" The veteran looked at Shulka with admiration: "In this way, the Germans will be afraid when they see the wooden house. They will regard it as a firepower point, so it will be difficult to find our firepower.
We can even build a few more cabins at key points!"
The veteran is right, this is what Shulka thought.
However, this method has not yet been applied to the entire defense line... After Major Gavrilov reported it to the division commander, the division commander had the same idea as the actor, thinking it was a child's plaything and did not take it seriously.
