Chapter 498: Leave with the results
As for the launch of a new round of air support to the 284th Division, this requires a systematic study to determine the plan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 At present, the Southwestern Front does not have many long-range bombers, and these planes have made large-scale stops at military airfields in Crimea, and the bombing of the Ploiesti oil fields in Romania has become a strategic task for the Soviet army.
Today, most of these planes have been accurately destroyed by German dive bombers, and there are really not many planes that Timoshenko can mobilize.
These are really real difficulties, the remaining bombers still play an important role, only a few TB-3 bombers waiting to be decommissioned. During the Vyazma operation in January, these honest aircraft were massively lost, and the Soviet authorities decided to decommission them. Its role as a transport aircraft still exists, and the remaining BT-3 has become a larger transport aircraft with a large capacity.
Il-4 and other bombers equipped the Southwestern Front, and they also quickly launched air strikes on the Germans, which to some extent prevented the Germans from advancing further.
Whether to send the old TB3 or the new Il-4 is a question. Timoshenko convened a short military meeting for this purpose, and he had already decided that assisting the 284th Division was a necessary task. However, in order not to surprise the Germans and make the anti-aircraft fire of the Germans perceive, he decided not to inform Novgomel until the plan was finalized.
In addition, Timoshenko also decided to write a letter to Moscow, which was a letter about personnel changes in the 284th Guards Division. Timoshenko also made up his mind, the Chinese Berekov must be promoted!
……
Yang Mingzhi, who was far away in the swamp in the strategic island, had not yet received the attention of the commander of the front army. The question now before him was to hurry back to the blacksmith village, where there was still a lot of work waiting for him.
March 9, this is the day of departure. Last night's bonfire had already turned into a cloud of black powder, and the ashes that were left of the burning had a huge effect, and they were all taken away by the "chemist".
The early morning light shines on the earth, and the soldiers have long been driven by the sound of the horn to get up early, and every morning they have to go to cross-country training, which is also necessary to keep every soldier physically strong.
At the end of the training, some of the soldiers were placed in cantonment, while others were trained in normal target shooting.
Yang Mingzhi knows too well what a soldier's life should look like, because it is really simple. As a soldier, you don't have to think too much, you wake up early every morning, and after you finish cleaning up your housework, you have breakfast, and then it's time for physical training.
In the past, because there was no shortage of food in the spring, the training of soldiers often took one day, which was unimaginable in other Soviet units. Yang Mingzhi, as a soldier trained by modern PLA, likes the training mode of PLA, although there are some drawbacks, and the overall is far superior to the various provisions of the Soviet infantry drill code from a future perspective.
After the tactics of infantry squads under the three-three system were established, grassroots units vigorously strengthened their training. New weapons have been introduced into the troops, and the training of fighters has become more targeted.
Early in the morning, there was another rumbling of gunfire, and under special conditions, the troops that had changed into German armaments had to adapt to the new weapon, to its new feel, to its new trajectory, and to its new rhythm.
In particular, the training of the general-purpose machine gun, based on the perverted rate of fire of the MG34, allowed the Soviet troops to be trained as well as the experienced German machine gunners, which required time and a lot of ammunition consumption. Yang Mingzhi was not stingy in this regard, because there were indeed a lot of German-made bullets seized.
The noise did not affect his and his wife's sleep, and the bonfire party of the homework was so exciting that she forgot that her physical condition was not very good.
No, when the two got up, the girl's sluggish spirit caused Yang Mingzhi to be nervous.
"Whoever tells you to recuperate, you have to behave like a singer in front of the soldiers! Singing and dancing, your body really needs to recuperate. ”
The husband's harsh rebuke was exchanged for a smile from the girl.
Yang Mingzhi hurriedly stretched out his right hand and pressed it against her forehead, not noticing any fever. It's just that this girl's gaze is a little dull, and the whole thing is like a lazy cat.
"Forget it, on the contrary, you have been helping in the hospital for the past few days, and my weapon experiments have caused you to panic there for a while, and you have also been frightened a lot. In the next few days, you will be able to recuperate like Natasha! ”
"Really?!" Star fruit's heart refused to do this, she wanted to refute, but she truthfully objected to her husband's command. She nodded and whispered, "Okay, I'll listen to you." I'll do what you tell me. ”
"Alas! That's right, then you will live in a ward with her, and you will recuperate for a few days, and then I will give you orders. ”
Yang Mingzhi helped her get dressed and quickly changed into a military uniform.
Last night, he had already made a deal with Fuming, and this time he returned to the blacksmith village, still by jeep. But seeing star fruit like this, think about it and change the means of transportation.
The two left the dormitory and went straight to the door of Fuming's office, where the jeep was ready.
Fuming, who was yawning, also finished preparing the morning, and the meal was in the office. A few pieces of bread, a few bowls of hot milk, and some canned sauerkraut, starvation drove the star fruit to change its languishing appearance and gobbling it up.
The two men looked at each other and smiled, and Fu Ming said, "Deputy Division Commander, the car has been prepared, how did you come and how to go back." ”
Yang Mingzhi shook his head and said regretfully: "With the driver and guards, the car has to sit five people, and it is really a little crowded." Don't look at Besica so lively, she's actually quite weak, and I really hope she doesn't have to endure the bumps along the way. ”
"Then take the carriage." Fuming glanced at the star fruit, but he didn't see that she was weak on the surface. Look at the deputy division commander again, maybe what happened to these two people last night? He didn't think much about it, the commander's order was absolute, and immediately ordered people to prepare a new means of transportation.
So an open-top carriage arrived, and the jeeps formed a small convoy. There was actually Ivanov who came with the carriage, Yang Mingzhi was inexplicable for a while, "Why did he come too." ”
When the middle-aged man stood straight in front of Yang Mingzhi and picked up the ink-colored glass bottle in his hand, Yang Mingzhi realized that this old guy had made something terrible again.
Ivanov pointed to the bottle and said excitedly: "Berekov, you are also a chemist, should you be able to guess what is in this bottle?" ”
Look at the appearance of this bottle, the dark brown bottle, the top cork is covered with a muslin cloth, and it looks like it should be protected from light and air. "Are you going to make ammonium nitrate?!"
"That's right! It's ammonium nitrate. Ivanov just smiled confidently, and his beard trembled. Yang Mingzhi's body was also trembling, trembling with excitement!
Ivanov continued: "This was made overnight by me and my students, and a little bit of it was prepared. You're here to make weapons, so you can't just go back with some stats. Our comrade of the Ministry of Internal Affairs believes more in the real thing, and she will be very happy if you get the results of the experiment. ”
Yang Mingzhi nodded, took the precious compound, and promised: "I will give you credit, and I will persuade Lyudbalev to give you a medal." ”
Ivanov shook his head kindly: "Actually, I don't have such a strong desire for honor. More than half a year ago, that woman forcibly took me and the students to the battlefield, and I have no grudge against her. All the chemistry talents I have carefully cultivated are easily killed, and most of the current students are from Moscow University! The woman, while carrying out orders, was undoubtedly destroying the country's reserves. You take this bottle and tell her that it is a compound that is enough to greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops, and that we chemists really should not carry guns into battle, and that it is our task to create weapons of mass destruction in the rear. ”
This man was rightly hateful, and if he hadn't been lucky enough, he would have died on the outskirts of Minsk, so that the troops would not have been able to escape to the swamps, let alone have a start to incendiary air bombs.
Yang Mingzhi affirmed: "I will convey your words truthfully, and now that woman's mind has changed, and she has even faced up to last year's recklessness and paranoia." I would convince her to write a letter of apology. ”
"That's good, that's good......" Ivanov said no more.
On the way back, there was enough to suppress the two of them, Yang Mingzhi's heart was overjoyed, but when he saw that his wife was a little wilted, his heart continued to be entangled. The open carriage was covered with blankets, which became a temporary bed for star fruit, and Yang Mingzhi carried it in and covered it with a blanket. After settling her, the small convoy finally began its return journey. (To be continued.) )
