Seeing Guo Sha coming down from the roof, the deputy company commander hurriedly greeted him and asked nervously, "Comrade company commander, have you found anything?" ”

Guosha nodded and said, "I found that in a private house in the east of the village, there may be Germans. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"So what are you waiting for, we're going to arrest them right away." As he spoke, the deputy company commander planned to call in his men and go to the east of the village to arrest those Germans disguised as his own people.

"Wait a minute," Guo Sha hurriedly stopped his deputy company commander and instructed him: "You take someone to stay here, and I will report to the commander and them." ”

"But, Comrade Company Commander." Seeing that Guosha had stopped his actions, the deputy company commander asked in puzzlement, "Why don't you arrest them now?" ”

"The Germans are cunning." Gosha explained to the deputy company commander: "The house they live in is close to the edge of the village, and there is a sentry at the door. If we pass with such a swagger, we will definitely be startled, and once they take advantage of the chaos to escape, it will not be so easy to catch them again. ”

Before leaving, he once again instructed the deputy company commander: "There should be people on the rooftop to keep an eye on the enemy in the east of the village, and the soldiers in the church should also be prepared, as long as they leave the house, they will be wiped out." ”

A few minutes later, Gosha arrived at the command headquarters and reported her observations to Rokossovsky. After saying that, he stood there without saying a word, waiting for Rokossovsky to issue a new order.

After listening to Gosha's report, Lobachev said to Rokossovsky in some anxiety: "Comrade commander, I think this enemy may be coming at our headquarters, so let's move it as soon as possible." ”

"That's right, Comrade Commander." As soon as Lobachev's words were finished, Malinin also chimed in: "In order to ensure your safety, I think we should move the headquarters to another place as soon as possible." ”

"No, the command can't be transferred." Rokossovsky shook his head and rejected Lobachev's and Malinin's suggestion: "The headquarters is such a big mess, if it is transferred, the movement will definitely be not small, and it will definitely be detected by the Germans." ”

In response to Rokossovsky's concerns, after a short ideological struggle in his mind, Malinin said decisively: "Comrade commander, if you and the military commissar are transferred first, I will stay here to attract the attention of the enemy." ”

"No, no, no, resolutely." As soon as Malinin's words were finished, Lobachev immediately rushed to say: "Chief of Staff, you and the commander are both military cadres. The 16th Army can do without me Lobachev, but it can't do without you and the commander, or you transfer, I'll stay and attract the enemy. ”

"Comrade Military Commissar, let's go with the commander......"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing." Rokossovsky interrupted the two with a wave of his hand, frowned and said: "Now it's not that the enemy is strong and I am weak, so there is no need to argue about these meaningless things?" After speaking, he turned his head and asked Guosha, who was standing next to him, "Captain, how many people do you have at your disposal?" ”

"72 people, Comrade Commander." Guosha hurriedly replied: "They are all fighters with rich combat experience, and I think there should be no problem in dealing with a few Germans." ”

"Very well, enough for so many people." Hearing Gosha's answer, Rokossovsky nodded with satisfaction and said, "I estimate that the Germans will come to attack my headquarters tonight, you only need to ......"

……

As soon as it was dark, the German soldiers living in the houses in the east of the village were a little unbreathable, and Sergeant Stephen whispered to Mark: "Mr. Lieutenant, should we send someone to reconnoitre?" ”

Mark raised his hand and looked at his watch, then shook his head and said, "No, it's too early, if you go to reconnoitre, it will be easy to expose the target." Also, do you listen to the sound of people walking outside? I guess the Russians who live near us, who have largely recovered their strength after a day's rest, are taking advantage of the opportunity to walk around. ”

Stephen couldn't help frowning at the footsteps and cacophony of people coming from outside, and he asked dissatisfiedly, "Do we have to wait until they all go back to their rooms to rest before we can scout?" ”

Mark nodded, and then said, "Sergeant Stephen, to be a good hunter, you must first have good enough patience. Well, hurry up and get some more sleep. With that, he threw his head back and leaned against the wall of the planks to close his eyes.

The clock ticked by minute and second, and the hour hand pointed to eight o'clock, but there were still people outside. Stephen approached Mark and said anxiously: "Mr. Lieutenant, you see it's not early, but the Russians outside haven't gone to rest yet, so our movement has been restricted, what should we do!" ”

"I'll fix it!" As he spoke, Lieutenant Mark stood up, walked to the door, pulled open the door, and walked out. After a while, Sergeant Stephen, who was staying in the house, heard the lieutenant say loudly outside: "Hey, I said comrades, why don't you rest yet, don't you know that we have a combat mission tomorrow?" Now all of them, listen to my commands, and stand upright! Turn left and right! Goal: Walk in the same room! ”

As the order was given, the sound of footsteps outside the house grew from near to far, and finally disappeared completely. At this point, Mark pushed open the door and walked in, and said to Stephen, "All right, they all go back to their rooms." After waiting for another half an hour, I will take someone to reconnoiter and see if there is any change in the strength of the guards near the headquarters. ”

……

Half an hour later, Lieutenant Mark, who was sitting by the wall with his eyes closed, stood up, and after scanning his eyes over the men in the room, he ordered, "Stephen, you take someone to stay here." Roffle, you come with me. ”

Seeing that Lieutenant Mark was about to leave, Stephen hurriedly stopped in front of him and took the initiative to ask him for his order: "Mr. Lieutenant, I'll take someone with you." ”

"You have not been to the command of the Russians and are not familiar with the terrain there. I'll go for it. With that, Mark gently pushed Stephen away from the people in front of him, and left the house with Roffle.

With the help of fences and houses on both sides of the village road, the two quietly approached Rokossovsky's headquarters. Although there were no lights in the houses on either side of the road, it happened to be a full moon today, and the bright moonlight shone on the ground, so they could clearly see the road ahead.

Mark thought that his actions were unaware, but he did not know that on the roof of the church not far away, a soldier was vigilantly monitoring the room where they were staying, and as soon as they left the house, they were spotted by the soldier on the roof. He hurriedly climbed to the window of the church and shouted in a low voice into the hall: "Company commander, comrade company commander." ”

"What's the matter?" Gosha, who was sitting in the hall, looked up and asked.

"The Germans are out." The warrior replied in a whisper.

"Oh, the Germans came out?" Hearing the soldier's report, Gosha immediately became excited, and he climbed up the roof with the help of stairs with his hands and feet, and then took the binoculars in the soldier's hand and looked towards the country road. I saw two black figures, about to sneakily approach in the direction of the headquarters.

"Why are there only two of them?" Guosha saw that there were only two people coming out of the house, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, she set up an ambush on the way to the headquarters, but she didn't expect that there were only two people in the German army.

The soldier lying next to him may have noticed Guosha's strange appearance, so he whispered: "Comrade Company Commander, do you think these two German soldiers came to reconnoiter first?" ”

The warrior's words could be said to wake up the dreamer, and Gosha hurriedly nodded desperately and said, "That's right, yes, I think it's the same." With that, he raised his telescope again and continued to observe the movement.

Mark and Roffle came to a stop more than a hundred meters from the headquarters, and he hid behind a wooden fence in a courtyard, raising his binoculars and looking ahead. He carefully observed in the darkness for a long time, and found that there was not even a patrol except for the two sentries standing at the entrance of the headquarters.

Seeing this situation, Roffle couldn't help but be ecstatic in his heart, and he lowered his voice and said to Mark: "Mr. Lieutenant, it seems that the vigilance of the Russians is very low, and it will be easy for us to terminate this command. ”

Mark nodded and commanded in a low voice, "Roffl, you go back and inform Stephen and ask him to bring everyone here, and we will take advantage of the low vigilance of the Russians to kill this command in one fell swoop." ”

Seeing one of the German soldiers turn around and run to their room, Gosha guessed that he must have called someone, so she locked the lens of the telescope on him, moving with his movements. Not long after the German soldier pushed the door and walked into the room, someone from inside walked out, and Gosha looked at it and counted it quietly: "One, two, three...... Seven, eight. When he counted to the eighth, no one came out of the house.

He put down his binoculars and whispered to the soldier next to him: "With the previous one, there are nine Germans in total, and I will immediately report this information to the command." If you continue to stay here, report to me immediately if there is any situation! ”

After Gosha got down from the roof, he rushed to the telephone, grabbed the microphone and dialed the commander, and when he heard a voice coming from inside, he whispered: "Please help me find Comrade Commander, I am Captain Gosha, and I have important information to report to him immediately." ”

A moment later, Rokossovsky's voice came out of the microphone: "Comrade Captain, what's the situation?" ”

"Comrade Commander," he said, although it was a few dozen meters away from the German troops, he lowered his voice and reported: "The enemy has come out and is quietly approaching the headquarters. ”

"How many are there?" Rokossovsky then asked.

"Nine!" To reassure Rokossovsky, Gosha also added: "My men have already laid an ambush halfway through, and as soon as they enter our ambush circle, they can be dealt with immediately." ”

"Comrade Captain, well done." Rokossovsky said approvingly: "I am waiting for your good news in the command. After putting down the phone, Rokossovsky turned his head and asked Lobachev: "Comrade Military Commissar, do you want to see how our fighters destroyed the German detachment?" ”

"Yes, of course!" Rokossovsky's words tickled Lobachev's heart, but he thought that the exit of the headquarters, which was within the surveillance range of the German troops, would be discovered as soon as he left the door: "But how can we avoid enemy surveillance?" ”

"It's easy to do." Rokossovsky said and walked to the window, pushed it open, and continued: "We go out through the window, the enemy will not see us, and then we can find a safe place and see the battle with our own eyes." ”

Just as Rokossovsky and Lobachev jumped out of the window, Stephen and Mark joined up. He asked in a low voice, "Mr. Lieutenant, what should we do?" ”

Mark pointed to the headquarters in the distance and whispered, "According to what we have done in advance, you take two people through the side door to kill the Russian sentry, and then we rush in and destroy their headquarters." Remember, the commander of the Russians was called Rokossovsky, and if he could not be captured alive, he was resolutely killed. As soon as he is killed, the Russians will turn into a plate of scattered sand, so that they will not be able to withstand our attack. ”

After hearing Stephen's answer, Mark said to Roffle again, "Roffle, you come with me." With that, he got up and prepared to walk out of the yard.

"Mr. Lieutenant, are you planning to be a god horse?" Stephen was confused by Lieutenant Mark's actions, and hurriedly asked, "If you go out, won't you expose the target?" ”

"Sergeant, I'm pretending to go to the Russian headquarters to get the attention of the sentries so that you can kill them through the side door." After Mark finished speaking, he waved his hand at Stephen and said in an unquestionable tone: "Let's act!" ”

Although Stephen's soldiers were cautious and made a slight noise when they moved, he never dreamed that their every move was under the surveillance of the Soviet army. And Rokossovsky, who was squatting behind a wooden house with Lobachev in the distance, also commented on the actions of the Germans in a low voice: "Comrade Military Commissar, you see, the commander of the German detachment is still a very clever person, and he actually knows how to divide troops into two ways. One way quietly approached our headquarters, while the other swaggered over, pretending to have important intelligence reports, in order to attract the attention of our sentinels and provide cover for the other way. ”

After seeing the enemy's actions clearly, Lobachev said with a smile: "Comrade commander, no matter how cunning the fox is, it is no match for the hunters, they think that our command is lax, so they try to sneak attack, who knows that we have already laid a net for them, just waiting for them to throw themselves into the net." ”

At this moment, "Da Da Da! Without warning, the voice sounded like a naughty child setting off firecrackers. But for Lieutenant Mark, who was walking along the village path, it was a nightmare, because only when a machine gun fired, did it make such a sound. (To be continued.) )
