Chapter 1027: There is a Mixi Village in the distance
When it comes to fighting, these soldiers will not have any objections, even if the enemy dispatches tanks and armored vehicles, the troops now have a way to turn them into broken copper and iron.
But as far as crossing the river is concerned, this has really become a big problem facing the vast number of soldiers.
Yang Mingzhi asked himself, he really thought about this question at first, until Fuming asked: "How do you let two regiments, up to 5,000 officers and soldiers, along with their equipment, be transported to the other side of the river!" This is the Dnieper, and its shortest width will not be less than two hundred meters! What's more, it's the spring flood now! ”
Fu Ming had been in charge of all matters in the blacksmith village for a long time, so he naturally had to study the local hydrology. The hydrographic archives of the Gomel region were no longer available with the German occupation of the city, so he had to simply collect some information.
Fortunately, the fishermen of Novgomel also know a lot about the Dnieper, for example, the Missy crossing.
Yang Mingzhi also knew about this Mixi ferry, and it was marked on the map.
When the war broke out a year earlier, the 284th Division withdrew into the swamp. According to official Soviet statistics, there were more than ten villages in the core area of the swamps, but only three of them remained, which are now collectively known as Novgomel.
A river called the Sozh River flows into the upper Dnieper, and at the confluence of the river there is a small city called Loyev. The Germans occupied the area, and the army passed the bridge without any problems. That German army belonged to Army Group Center, whose combat mission was to stop the movement of Soviet troops in the Chernihiv direction to the north.
As a result, the Germans quickly advanced along the banks of the Dnieper, destroying all the villages they encountered. They were combat troops, it was not their duty to maintain the occupied territories, and in order to avoid burdens, they did not take prisoners. Because of the patriotic behavior of the inhabitants of the occupied villages, the Germans did not hesitate to eliminate these potential threats.
The village of Missy, a fishing village of more than 400 villagers, was completely wiped out by the Germans. The village was of no use, and when the Germans fully occupied Chernihiv, the Germans had no time to take care of the previously destroyed villages, and they had no interest in the swamps.
So when the 284th Division took root in the swamp, the militia set up a large number of outposts around the control area, and even patrols went on long-distance expeditions.
The distance from the Missy ferry to the blacksmith village is eighteen kilometers in a straight line, and the closest distance from the blacksmith village to the Dnieper is only twelve kilometers.
That village of Misi had been completely reduced to ruins, and for the five thousand people to enter it, they would have to cross more than two hundred meters of water.
Even upstream, the Dnieper is not a small river, and it is the current flood season, so the situation will be even more troublesome.
The only way Yang Mingzhi and others could think of was to build rafts. However, the problem also arises, the current troops are indeed rushing the rafts early, they are basically on the side of the Pripet, and it is nonsense to transfer the finished rafts to the Dnieper River for thirty kilometers!
It is necessary to think of a safe and secure way to transport troops.
The sun has risen, Yang Mingzhi racked his brains, maybe he was too tired, or he was too anxious, did his IQ plummet?
In the end, he couldn't think of the safest way, and since it was dawn, it was time for that Kavitzky to get up. Maybe the serious guy can give some good advice?
Yang Mingzhi finally ordered the meeting to be suspended, and the officers attending the meeting went to dinner, while he himself sent his trusted civilian soldier Abram to personally invite Kavitzky, the head of the blacksmith village.
……
The meeting was suspended for nearly three hours, and Yang Mingzhi lay on the table to rest.
The communications squad will change shifts at four o'clock in the morning, and because of the emergency, the squad leader Alekseev urgently went to the command. The communication class of their communication class does not pay attention to the meetings of the chiefs, but needs to pay attention to the telegraph!
Undoubtedly, Liu Hongxiu's skillful translation of the double-encrypted code frightened the squad leader, who had been giving the commander a one-month training order to Peria's death, but he didn't expect this girl to be a genius! In shock, he also knew that he had picked up a treasure.
The girl looks unashamed and impatient, and her praise for the squad leader and comrades-in-arms is neither humble nor arrogant, and her mind is actually all on her father-in-law who talks loudly in the office.
She could have been evacuated at four o'clock in the morning, but now she is more concerned about her stepfather. She was not very interested in the praise of the squad leader and the group leader, and only her father's affirmation of the results of her few days of evil malignment was of practical significance.
The girl finally waited for the meeting to be suspended, she was already with dark circles under her eyes, and she still jumped up and down to Yang Mingzhi, who was already resting on the table.
Yang Mingzhi was gently awakened, looked left and right, and saw Liu Hongxiu's grinning little round face clearly.
He was really taken aback: "Oh my God! Are you new here? You're already on duty? ”
"No, it's not! I've been on duty until now! I'm sleepy! When she said this, she had a hippie smile on her face, and she was almost tired, but her black smoke rings would not deceive.
Looking at her face, Yang Mingzhi suddenly slapped his head angrily: "Oops! I really forgot, you girl is here on duty! That Diana also said that you did a better job than the others, and you quickly deciphered the telegram! ”
"That's right! It's all true! Liu Hongxiu hugged Yang Mingzhi's right arm and rubbed coquettishly: "Father-in-law!" I'm not ashamed of you! I don't think it would take me a month to be a qualified telegraph operator! ”
"Is that so?! Then you're going to have to do your best! But you'd better call me Comrade Commander in Russian! ”
Yang Mingzhi didn't praise Liu Hongxiu too much, he just knew that this girl could already listen to the ticking code and translate, which was an exciting progress.
His mind was still all about making a battle plan, especially now that he had encountered obstacles, which made him even less bothered to ask more about this child's extraordinary performance.
Looking at this coquettish girl, the eyebrows really look like a young version of star fruit, but this girl's eyes are obviously very big. She is clingy and looks like star fruit, and it only takes a few days for this goddaughter to admit it, and she is so clingy! Could it be that this is self-cooked?
Yang Mingzhi still wanted to rest for a while to sober up his mind, he slowly pulled Liu Hongxiu away, and stood straight by himself. "Messenger, Peria, Lizheng!"
Liu Hongxiu was taken aback, and she also reflexively stood like a strong pine.
"Pepper! You've done a great job today, and soon you'll be a good telegraph operator! I'm tired now, so go back to the dormitory and sleep well. There's nothing for you to do here. ”
"Yes! Comrade Chief! Liu Hongxiu quickly straightened her legs and saluted, and the smile on her face did not dissipate at all.
The girl jumped up and down with her group of telegraph operators, who had just been summoned by the commander himself and seen by others.
Diana asked curiously, "Peria, what did the commander tell you?" What languages do I not understand? ”
"Comrade Commander just complimented me a few words." Liu Hongxiu said proudly: "Besides, I have an agreement with him." I can call Comrade Commander Father, and he doesn't mind in the slightest. ”
"What? He's your father, it's ...... How is this possible?! Diana paused in surprise.
"What's impossible about that? It was he who saved me from the Nazis, he saved my life! I think you can totally understand. The girl smiled and followed her comrades in front......
