Chapter 1121: Chernihiv's Never-Ending Airwaves
This time, however, these seemingly perfect camouflage concealments were lost under the antennas of the German radio detection vehicles.
Since the early hours of May 22, as many as six detection trucks have detected anomalous electromagnetic waves. The range that trucks can detect is up to 1.5 kilometers, and at the German headquarters, the relevant personnel determined the location of their own trucks, and then drew circles on the map with the trucks as the center, and finally determined an area.
Hendryson didn't go to bed early tonight, and when he learned that the location of the "rat's nest" was basically determined, he had no intention of resting.
With a walkie-talkie in hand, he gave an order to the vigilantes of the German army and the locals: "Immediately block the intersection of Kirov Avenue and Victory Victory Street, and make as little noise as possible!" Stick to the intersection when you arrive at the location, arrest any suspicious elements, and shoot them if they are apprehended. ”
Fifteen hundred men launched that night, how could such a large battle be seamless?!
The Soviet rebels sensed the rumors, and they were still a step too late! After all, as many as six radio detection vehicles have been positioned, and the resistance group is not a mole, they have already planted their wings.
Eventually, the Germans were able to identify the building from which the radio was sent, and more than 100 soldiers broke down the door to search and successfully found the "rat's nest".
At the last minute, the members of the underground Resistance did not hesitate to smash the transmitter and pick up the revolver to prepare for the final battle.
The shootout was very short-lived, and these revolvers felt powerless in the face of German submachine guns. Two members of the Resistance were killed on the spot, and they also hit an enemy. All the remaining members of the Resistance were captured, and the basement began to be searched by the Germans.
Hendryson, who was guarding the division headquarters, soon received the good news, and he immediately ordered: "You immediately interrogate these people, search their areas of activity with all your might, and be sure to find as much information as possible in the shortest possible time." After gathering information, these people will be hanged in public tomorrow! ”
The Germans captured a total of five members of the resistance, who were first severely beaten, and then tortured to prison.
Because it was not the regular German soldiers who interrogated these people, but the pseudo-police of Ukrainians in charge of policing. Just before the outbreak of the war, both were citizens of the USSR, and the war changed everything.
In prison, these partisans denounced the crimes of the traitors, but the pseudo-police had their own logical rhetoric: "We are fighting against Stalin's tyranny, and you are Stalin's dogs!" You are Russians, we are Ukrainians! Your very existence is sinful! ”
The whip turned red blood on these people's bodies, and they even burned their flesh and skin with red-hot iron. Despite this, these heroic partisans preferred to die rather than give in.
The pseudo-police didn't ask anything, it seems that these people don't know what pain is, and if they continue to be destroyed, they are afraid that they will be killed before they are hanged tomorrow, which is not good.
A man who looked like an officer said, "Since you don't say anything, forget it!" Anyway, I found some documents in your stronghold, and these are more than enough! Tomorrow morning, all of you will be hanged! ”
At this point, one of the guerrillas, who had been silent for a long time, vomited blood and cursed: "Your end is not far off!" After dawn, when we are hanged, there will be justice from heaven to punish you for your sins! The flame from heaven will judge you sinners! ”
As soon as these words came out, the officer was immediately interested. This man does not feel the slightest disgust at the prisoner's curse, which is only the last wail of the weak! The problem is what this person said, which is too literary.
"Huh?! Are you still a Jew? It's a rabbi! He snapped his fingers and ordered, "You guys go and pull out his pants, if it's a Jew, we'll have a lot to do!" ”
Ethnic relations in Chernihiv are now very acute, and the majority of Ukrainians, whether in good faith or not, are ordered to be hostile to the minority of Russians. According to the evil plan devised by the German occupation forces and the puppet Ukraine, when the nationalist state is established, all Russians will be expelled, and only Ukrainians will be allowed to exist here.
As a result, ethnic Russians in the city were persecuted and expelled as accomplices of the partisans, while Jewish Gypsies were killed as soon as they were discovered.
The pseudo-policeman concluded that this man was not Jewish, and he did not take what he said seriously, but just a useless verbal curse! Can a curse be more useful than a gun?
A true patriot cannot be killed!
In the midst of the current acute contradictions between friend and foe, Soviet spies active in the occupied areas of the Soviet Union, and Soviet spies in other countries, they all know a simple truth - eggs cannot be put in the same basket.
The Chernihiv underground organization has set up several strongholds in the city, and their rule is that if one stronghold is discovered by the enemy and killed, the others immediately move from concealment to the front and take over the work of the "dead".
The largest stronghold was destroyed by the Germans in the early hours of 22 May, and the operation that night was a great deal of action, and three other strongholds in the city were immediately put into action. They expressed regret for the fallen comrades, and there was no more grief for them, and since everyone was prepared for a sudden death in this dangerous work, they turned on the turned off radio and continued to start contact.
This is the eternal radio wave in the city of Chernihiv, and at this moment, these telegraphers, their personal lives are no longer counted! They were a tiny node in the entire Soviet intelligence network, and every communication node was crucial. An individual's life can be abandoned, and the transmission of information cannot be interrupted! That's what they, the underground spies, can do!
On the other hand, the Germans also found something they hoped for in the seized documents, especially one that had been accepted just two hours before the search had taken place.
Because the search was too sudden and accurate, the previous documents were burned as firewood, and the documents of the past few days are still kept.
The message was quickly sent to Hendryson's divisional office, where he happily received the second translation in German and frowned.
"What kind of information is this? What are the Russians going to do? They are going to bombard Chernihiv ?! What a fool's dream, could it be that their army has already reached the outside of the city? Or do the Russians still have a powerful air force? Fantastic! ”
What Hendryson saw was the telegram sent by Salinchkin, and not only did he not understand it, but also these underground fighters of the Soviet army, who also felt inexplicable.
He and his staff officers discussed in the office for a while, but they still couldn't get a result. The only thing that pleased him was the fact that the other captured cables proved that the Romanian army suffered a crushing defeat due to the entry of the 284th Division of the Soviet Army! Not only that, but the real number of the Soviet army has been changed to the 63rd Army, and the 284th Division is under its jurisdiction.
"At least, we know the true face of the enemy in the swamps, the city is only fifty kilometers in a straight line from the Dnieper! If Chernihiv is facing huge pressure on the city's defense, the source of the pressure is the Soviet 63rd Army! With this information, we can also ask for credit from our superiors! ”
"What a celebratory event!" The chief of staff praised.
"Sort of! Schmidt, I don't know what else will happen to the interrogation of prisoners by our men. ”
"There should be new discoveries! Wait a minute, I'll call and ask. ”
Telegrams from the division headquarters went directly to the prison. Before the war, it was the detention center of the police department in the city of Chernihiv, and today it is a good place to hold anti-German elements and suspicious people.
The pseudo-police failed to get valuable information from the prisoners, and they were naturally criticized.
In desperation, the pseudo-policeman had no choice but to repeat the prisoner's curse.
The Germans did not completely laugh at the curse, because compared with the captured documents, it seemed that the Soviets were really preparing something.
Hendryson was uncertain, he was worried, and he always felt that he was simply worried.
