Chapter 1074: Stay as an Observer

Miroshniko shook his head helplessly, raised his head sincerely, and stared at Yang Mingzhi: "General, if you had experienced those things, I don't think you would have withdrawn in a hurry!" Those damned Romanians, who are mediocre in combat, slaughter our civilians! As you know, the population under the control of my guerrilla brigade once exceeded 10,000 people, but now there are only 2,900 left! More than 7,000 people, the vast majority of them civilians! They were all killed by the enemy, and among them the Romanians were also executioners! When they don't have a good fight on the battlefield, they take the civilians! I've been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on my enemies, and you have ordered me to cross the Dnieper moat! My heart is dripping blood! ”

"So what do you want to do?" Yang Mingzhi asked with a stiff face, "Comrade, what do your soldiers look like, don't you count them in your heart?" They were in tatters, and many of them lost their shoes! The weapons are basically bolt-action rifles, there are more than a dozen machine guns, but the bullets are almost gone! The best heavy weapons are nothing more than a few mortars, and there are only a handful of shells. ”

Yang Mingzhi actually just said casually, his guards briefly observed the guerrilla brigade's entry into the city, and Yang Mingzhi made an inference through this information.

Miroshniko was surprised: "You already know so much? Not bad! The network fighters are indeed exhausted, and the ammunition is almost gone! If we had to fight with the Luo army in the wilderness, we would be completely annihilated! ”

"So you're really going to stay? I don't want the 17th Guerrilla Brigade to suffer any more heavy casualties. ”

"Even so, I want to stay!" Miroshniko said resolutely: "General, you at least give me a chance to take revenge!" Yes! My warriors are almost exhausted, but you can't assume that everyone is. Some of them are still strong enough to continue fighting! I plead, I lead a handful of soldiers to stay, and we are unconditionally at your command! Even if you don't plan to let us fight with guns ourselves, as long as you can make us witnesses to the victory of the defeat of the Luo army, I will be satisfied! ”

Speaking of this, Miroshniko made a heartfelt look, "General! I heard a lot of your stories from Comrade Ponomarenko and learned that you are a very good officer who can achieve brilliant victories at very little cost, even with a large number of enemy troops! You led your troops to destroy more than 10,000 enemies! On the contrary, his strength has grown rapidly! Just a dozen days ago, you had a major victory! You are a true expert in guerrilla warfare!

Facts have proved that the combat capability of our guerrilla brigade is still too poor, and this is by no means a problem of inferior weapons and equipment! I still haven't learned the real methods of guerrilla warfare! At least let me be an observer in this battle and learn real combat command! ”

This guy's sycophants are so good, Yang Mingzhi is happy in his heart, so he also changed his mind.

"Alright! You are very self-aware, and I am not modest, I think that many of our guerrilla brigade commanders and guerrilla brigade commanders have not mastered the correct methods of guerrilla warfare. Guerrilla warfare is never about blowing up railroad tracks and attacking outposts. I believe that guerrilla warfare is characterized by flexible tactics, and I have summed up four core sentences for me. ”

The "sixteen-character mantra" of guerrilla warfare was translated into Russian, and Yang Mingzhi was in the mood for it, patiently giving Miroshniko nonsense.

This surprised Miroshniko, "I can't imagine that even if we don't shoot the enemy, we can indirectly break their morale by putting a few shots to wake them up while they are sleeping." ”

"Of course, the superiors did not expect us to be able to kill and injure the enemy in large numbers, and Comrade Ponomarenko was wrong to let you storm Gorodnia! The role of our troops behind enemy lines is to create an atmosphere of terror in the occupied areas, and I think that it is better to make the enemy suspect that all Russians and Ukrainians around him are potential partisans, and that these people in overcoats have daggers hidden in their pockets than killing and destroying.

However, if there is a chance to destroy the enemy on a large scale, we must not give up! It's like this Luo army attack, the enemy made a fatal military mistake! They are alone in the depths, and they have no idea that our 63rd Army is ready to defend against the enemy! ”

"Yes! Yes! Miroshniko echoed, "They would never have imagined that you had gathered tens of thousands of soldiers!" ”

"These tens of thousands of soldiers were not mobilized for nothing!" Yang Mingzhi sighed intriguingly: "This time, maybe we have a chance to eat all these Romanians!" Even if they can't swallow it, they don't lose a few thousand people, and this battle can't be over! ”

In this way, Yang Mingzhi agreed to Miroshniko's request.

As the night drew to a close, the vast number of soldiers continued to sleep soundly. For all the people who are deep in this city, no one can really rest without heart and lungs. The vast number of fighters had to maintain a high level of nervous concentration, so that it was impossible to get a good night's sleep for a few days. And those soldiers and civilians of the guerrilla brigade who arrived in the city only in the early hours of the morning, these people had to eat a full meal at most, and waited until a few hours after the sun rose, and they still had to obediently wake up and continue to evacuate.

After announcing the order to Miroshniko, Yang Mingzhi was finally able to rest well.

In the past, he did not understand the records of military history, what commander did not sleep for three days and three nights! This may be deliberately done for the sake of publicity, and at present, Yang Mingzhi almost understands that all this is a true description.

He slept only four hours, which was based on the fact that the officers could not bear to disturb the commander's rest. When he woke up, it was seven o'clock in the morning.

The weather was cool, and Yang Mingzhi suddenly woke up and looked at his watch at this hour. He grumbled at the guards, and then quickly asked, "Have the soldiers all gotten up?" Especially the people of the guerrilla brigade! ”

"We've all pouted them! All of them! I think the temptation to eat is the biggest thing compared to sleeping! ”

Yang Mingzhi breathed a long sigh of relief: "You go and call your platoon commander Abram, I will go and supervise it personally."

After a few minutes, Yang Mingzhi changed into his military uniform, shook off the dust on it, paid special attention to wearing his medals, and appeared in front of the guards as a general, and then in front of the vast number of soldiers and civilians who were sitting on the ground to eat.

The blackened grass that was bombed in the hundreds of meters that was used as a battlefield last year has been transformed into a huge open-air resting place. The soldiers of the guerrilla brigade, who had arrived only a few hours earlier, had their beds on the ground, and when they found an open space, they ate the baked potatoes they had received, and then fell asleep.

A few hours passed, and the men sniffed the smell of food again and got up.

They are so weak that they can burst out with amazing "combat effectiveness" while eating. Fortunately, the fighters of the paratrooper brigade also resorted to tough tactics, forcing the hungry guys to line up with guns and bayonets.

In fact, the commander of the partisan brigade, Miroshniko, also wanted to organize the detachment well, and when the crowd was in disarray, he found that his leadership skills were not as good as they are now. Suddenly, a sense of crisis came to mind: "How can the troops fight the enemy like this?" ”

Fortunately, the general was very wise and ordered the survivors of the guerrilla brigade to withdraw, and only the shrewd and capable could stay.

Miroshniko divided his brigade into a dozen partisan detachments, which were sub-divisions of the guerrilla brigade and were equivalent to infantry battalions. After the battle, only a few people remained in several detachments, and even two were wiped out!

He knew that as long as these detachment leaders, and even squad leaders, were still alive, the troops could be quickly rebuilt. These junior officers were ordered to stay behind and form a "observer" squad of less than 50 people. Miroshniko figured that he would definitely be able to give his hand to the commander Berekov.

Knowing that the large force of the partisan brigade was going to start running to the Missi crossing at about eight o'clock in the morning, Miroshniko had already begun to form his team early and handed over his command to one of his trusted subordinates.
