By 3:30 p.m., the triumphant troops gathered at the Missy Ferry had more than 4,500 troops. If it were just these soldiers, everything would be well said, and the key was that along with them, there were also a large number of captured materials and thousands of horses.

Moreover, an even greater force was marching on the forest path leading to the Missy Ferry. It was a road that was not too wide, barely enough to walk two carriages side by side.

Yang Mingzhi can already think of what is happening to Tepunov's paratrooper brigade now, their situation is definitely not good, just to make a cameo appearance in the artillery regiment, escorting those field guns and a huge number of shells to the ferry, it is a huge project!

Those elite warriors can walk like a fly, and can make rapid marches that last for many hours. The large number of seized materials inevitably slowed it down, and when it arrived at the ferry and transported it across the river, it must be a big project!

Between transporting people and materials, he decisively chose to transport people first.

Because Kavitsky was still on the left bank of the river, his office was in the same house that had been swept in the village of Misi. Yang Mingzhi simply led Kavitzki directly and held a small meeting alone in that office.

Now Kavitzky is in high spirits, and the whole military operation he personally led the civilian group, but the perfect ending of the combat troops' logistical problems, based on this perfect operation, he knows that the credit he has made will bring great benefits to himself after the war.

He was very cheerful, and he patted his chest and promised without Yang Mingzhi asking anything: "If you have any other orders, I can guarantee that the task will be completed." ”

"Oh? Are you so decisive? ”

"Of course! I have the ability to solve any problem. ”

Seeing him so confident, Yang Mingzhi grinned, looking like he couldn't fully trust. He said, "In that case, I will say it! The vast number of soldiers in this operation were really tired, they had to give priority to crossing the river for rest, a large amount of heavy equipment, and a large number of captured materials, and the transportation of these things could only lag behind. What do you think? Can you make sure that all of those supplies are transported across the river? ”

"Are you questioning my abilities?!" Suddenly, Kavitzky sensed that the commander seemed to have something to say, and he stood up sharply and asked: "Commander! Could it be that I didn't do well in my previous mission?! ”

"You're doing a great job!"

"And what else do you question?" Kavitsky crossed his fingers and muttered the words in his mouth: "You see, the more than 1,000 people in the partisan brigade, 500 prisoners of war, the booty that was sent earlier, especially the captured wagons. I was transported to the other side of the river, with all my carts and horses. ”

"Oh?" Yang Mingzhi's eyes lit up, "The carriage transportation is also very smooth?!" ”

"Of course! It went very well! We first carried the goods off the wagons and transported them individually, and finally, the empty wagons and horses were also transported separately, and the river was crossed. It's not that hard at all. ”

Yang Mingzhi didn't know how he used to transport the carriage across the river, and after one explanation, it seemed that it was not a problem at all.

"Hey, hey! It seems that I am overly concerned, and you are indeed very wise. ”

Kavitsky's nervous heart calmed down, "Don't worry, Commander, I see a lot of trucks full of goods coming, and they can cross the river properly." It's just that. ”

"Just what?" Yang Mingzhi asked sharply.

"It's just that the transportation of goods is more troublesome than simply transporting personnel, after all, there are many steps!"

"That's what worries me the most!"

The army should be able to be noble and fast, and the Romanians are making a mess, and the speed of their division's troops is uneven, and on the whole it is like a tortoise! If they had acted very efficiently, the battle would not have been the way it is today.

Because Yang Mingzhi was fully aware of the capture of the troops, he especially emphasized to Kavitsky: "Now I must tell you that among the many trophies, the most precious is as many as fifteen 75-mm field guns and forty-five 45-mm infantry guns!" None of these guns are lightweight! Our army also counted, and the total number of captured 75-mm shells was as high as 1,500, and the number of 45-mm shells of various types exceeded 3,000! These were all ammunition for field guns, and in addition to this, the troops also captured a total of nearly 1,000 60-mm mortar shells. There are more bullets, and the Mauser is only afraid of a million rounds!

I have to admit that the Romanians' horse-drawn carriages were really good for carrying goods, and they were seriously short of trucks, so they made great efforts to improve them. They are obviously the product of standardized manufacturing, and many places, especially the bearings, are made of steel, and it is really good that such carriages are used by our army!

These weapons, ammunition and vehicles, as well as horses weighing up to two thousand, had to be transported across the river in a short time! ”

Kavitzky could clearly sense the commander's great affection for this batch of trophies, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly responded: "Obey!" There was no problem at all in transporting supplies across the river. ”

Yang Mingzhi could also see his hesitation, so he asked, "Is it really okay?" ”

"No problem! I promise to complete the task. ”

"But, I always feel that you are being stubborn!" Yang Mingzhi shook his head slightly and sighed, "Together with the bulk of the booty they escorted, I suddenly realized that there was a big trouble in our army, a big trouble about crossing the river!" There were already more than 2,000 people and a temporary medical station, as well as a large amount of food reserves. If all the combat troops were to be assembled here, the population on both sides of the Missy Ferry would exceed 10,000!

After all, we have inflicted heavy losses on the enemy, and if they send bombers to retaliate, only a standard 250kg aerial bomb will cause us catastrophic losses!

After all, we are surviving on all sides of the enemy, and now thousands of men and heavy equipment are already taking great risks here. I think you get what I mean! ”

"I see!" Kavitsky replied resolutely: "I will do this as quickly as possible, and I will now order the people to continue crossing the river even at night!" ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "I'll wait and see, you can handle this matter yourself, I will only make some simple requests for you now." That is, when transporting trophies, priority is given to transporting lightweight, such as captured large quantities of steel helmets, which must be transported first! I'm going to use these helmets to build a pyramid in the village and organize a visit to the people to boost morale!

Large quantities of ammunition were also carried first, followed by horses, captured wagons again, and all captured artillery was transported last. Do you understand? ”

Kavitzky had already quickly jot down his notebook, and he affirmed: "Your instructions are to plan the mission charter for me!" I've written it all down and I'll do it properly. ”

"That's it! We all speak by results. Actually, we are not particularly anxious, the nights are long, and you have to work in the cold nights. What do you think? Is there alcohol here? ”

"Yes! Vodka! ”

"Then pour me a drink!" As he spoke, Yang Mingzhi untied the kettle in his waist, drank the water tons by tons, and finally poured in a whole bottle of spirits.

In this cold place, only strong wine can make people warm and energetic, and the soldiers under their command occasionally drink with a sip, so they don't have to stick to anything.

These two drank two bottles in this headquarters, Yang Mingzhi was slightly drunk, and his words increased.

"Card ...... Kavitsky, you've done a great job this time! If the army wins the battle, you have one-third of the credit, and if the loot is brought back, it is another one-third of the credit. We fought a good battle, and you, a logistics expert, have made a great contribution. ”

Such praise has been said many times, and Kavitzky has become emboldened, and he joked: "I have the credit, but it is not as great as you say!" Aren't we still facing a problem? If there had been a pontoon bridge at the crossing, our crossing would never have been a problem. ”

"Bridge!" This word is poking Yang Mingzhi's heart, he knocked on the old table and shouted: "It's the bridge!" We lack bridges! We can build pontoon bridges, as soon as time does not allow it, and the Germans will not allow it! But once there is a solid bridge, our army can easily cross the river! How can we get the bridge, then there is only one way, to lay down the city of Loyev, to liberate there, so that the iron bridge over the Dnieper River in the city will be ours! ”

Kavitzky's face was flushed when he heard the commander's words, and he asked excitedly: "Commander! Our next military target, is Loyev? ”

"Maybe!" Yang Mingzhi smiled, "I drank wine, this is just a casual remark!" As for the war, after the troops go back, let's prepare for war! Perhaps, the enemy is already organizing a large army to prepare for a new round of encirclement and suppression. Besides, we don't know how the battle is going with our superiors! If the Southwestern Front can achieve a strategic counteroffensive, perhaps in the next large-scale battle, our army will cooperate with the main force and launch a large-scale offensive! ”
