Chapter 448: New Guards
When Rokossovsky returned to the hospital, he thought that he did not know which ward Lyonka was staying in, so he prepared to go to the nurse's station and ask. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw a group of nurses sitting in the nurse's station, talking and laughing around the head nurse.
In Rokossovsky's impression, the head nurse has always been an unsmiling person, and he is also extremely strict with the nurses below, how did he do it today, he actually mingled with the nurses, could it be that the sun came out of the west?
With this question, he walked to the nurses' station and said loudly to the nurses who were laughing: "Hello girls, what makes you so happy?" ā
When the head nurse saw Rokossovsky standing next to him, he immediately stood up and walked over, and asked with a smile: "Comrade General, you are back!" How's it going, when you're outside today, you don't feel any discomfort, right? ā
"No, I feel good." After Rokossovsky said this, he continued to ask curiously: "What are you talking about about happy things?" ā
"Comrade General," said Vanya, who was sitting in the middle of the nurses, in a loud voice, "the husband of the head nurse, she has returned from the front to visit her family, and the two of them will be able to meet tonight, and we are happy for her." ā
Rokossovsky once talked with the head nurse and knew that her husband was a scout, a profession with the highest mortality rate, and that it was a great event in itself to be able to return from the front line alive, so he stretched out his hand to the head nurse and said sincerely: "Comrade head nurse, I congratulate you!" ā
"Thank you, Comrade General!" The head nurse, who had always been very aggressive, looked a little embarrassed at the moment, she glanced in the direction of the ward, and then said, "You must be very tired after running outside for a day, hurry up and go back to the ward to rest." Later, I'll ask Vanya to check your body and take your blood pressure. ā
Rokossovsky nodded, carrying his suitcase and walking towards the ward. After walking two steps, he remembered that he had something to ask the head nurse, so he stopped and asked, "Comrade head nurse, do you know Liao Enka?" ā
"Rionka?" After repeating the name, the head nurse nodded vigorously, and then asked rhetorically: "Comrade General, what are you looking for him, is he harassing your rest?" Don't worry, I'll greet him myself later and warn him not to harass you again. ā
"No, no, no, Comrade Head Nurse." Rokossovsky hurriedly waved his hands and said: "He did not harass me. On the contrary, I have something important to ask him for, can you get him to come to my room as soon as possible? ā
"Okay, Comrade General." The head nurse readily agreed, "I will immediately call the nurses' station downstairs and ask them to inform Liao Enka to come to your ward to see you." ā
Rokossovsky returned to his hospital room, took off the civilian clothes he wore when he went out, and changed into a hospital gown. Then he took out the military uniform that Vasilevsky had prepared for himself from the box and hung it on the coat rack at the door. After doing all this, he picked up the pistol in the box again, checked the magazine, and although he knew that he had very few places to use the gun, he still felt that he would feel at ease if he checked it himself.
At this moment there was a gentle knock at the door, and before Rokossovsky could stand up, a familiar voice was heard outside: "Report to Comrade General, Red Army soldier Lyonka was ordered to report to you!" ā
Rokossovsky hurriedly put the pistol in his hand into the box, closed the lid of the case, and said loudly outside: "Please come in, Comrade Lyonka, please come in!" ā
When Rio Engkara opened the door and entered, he stopped at the door and remained upright, staring motionless in front of him.
Rokossovsky saw the other party standing at the door like a telephone pole, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, he quickly got up and walked over, shook the other party's hand, and said in a friendly manner: "Okay, Liaoenka, we are all old acquaintances, you don't need to be so restrained." ā
After glancing at Rokossovsky, the dazed Lyonka couldn't help but exclaim: "It's you, Lieutenant Colonel Vasily!" ā
"Comrade Lyonka, I'm sorry, I didn't tell you the truth the last time we met." When Rokossovsky said this, he restrained the smile on his face, straightened his waist and said: "Let's get acquainted again, I am Lieutenant General Rokossovsky, commander of the 16th Army." ā
After hearing Rokossovsky's true identity, Lyonka's jaw almost hit the ground. After a moment of distraction, he quickly broke free of Rokossovsky's hand, raised it to his ear, and said respectfully: "Hello, Comrade Commander, please forgive me for my last rashness. ā
"Alright, Lionka, we're both old friends, so there's no need to be so polite." Rokossovsky pulled his hand down from his forehead, pointed to the chair next to the bed, and said, "Sit down, I have something important to say to you." ā
Lyonka did what Rokossovsky had pointed out in an orderly manner, and then asked tremblingly: "Comrade commander, I don't know if you have anything important to do when you came to me today?" ā
"That's right, Rienka." Rokossovsky sat down opposite Lyonka and said in a calm tone: "I have often had to go to work at the staff headquarters recently, and according to my rank, my superiors are ready to assign me a guard. But I turned them down, saying I already had the right person. ā
"Comrade Commander, when you say the right person, don't you mean me?" Hearing this, Rienka jumped up from his chair and said nervously, "I've never been a security guard before. ā
"It's okay," Rokossovsky pressed his hand down on his shoulder, motioning for him to sit down: "It doesn't matter if you've never been a security guard, you can learn slowly." By the way, I don't understand one thing, why didn't the hospital let you out when your injuries are almost healed? ā
"That's right, Comrade Commander." Liao Enka replied with a wry smile: "I still have a piece of shrapnel in my lung that has not been taken out, and the hospital is worried that I will be in danger, so they have not let me be discharged, so every day I am fine, I just wander around the hospital, and after a long time, whether it is a doctor or a nurse, everyone knows me." ā
"Oh, I see." After Rokossovsky figured out the reason why Lyonka had not been discharged from the hospital, he continued: "You accompany me to the staff headquarters tomorrow, and I will get you a set of military uniforms and weapons." As my security guard, I can't walk around in a hospital gown. ā
"The military uniform is easy to handle, as long as I tell the aunt who says cleaning, she can find me a good set of military uniforms." When Liao Enka heard that he had to be equipped with a uniform and a weapon, he hurriedly replied: "But the matter of weapons is a little more troublesome, and it must be approved by the dean and the political commissar." ā
"The weapon matter is not a problem, I can just say hello to the dean tomorrow." After solving the problem of military uniforms and weapons, Rokossovsky instructed the other side: "I don't care what you do in peacetime." As long as you can follow me when I go to the staff headquarters. No problem, right? ā
"No problem." Lyonka replied affirmatively: "Comrade commander, rest assured, I will be able to ensure your safety." ā
