Malinin and Kazakov, with the help of several fighters, cleaned up the masonry that was pressing on Rokossovsky's body and carried him to the basement with all hands and feet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

By the time Rokossovsky was placed headfirst on a marching bed, the military doctor who was on call at the headquarters had already heard the news and rushed over. He glanced at the commander's back, and immediately began to give orders without hesitation: "Help him take off his clothes, and the idlers will stand farther away." ”

Although Rokossovsky was surrounded by some high-ranking officers, after hearing the words of the military doctor, except for Malinin and Kazakov, who were helping Rokossovsky undress, the rest of the people took a few steps back and continued to look at their commander with worried eyes.

After Rokossovsky's clothes were stripped naked, the military doctor couldn't help but gasp when he saw the wound on his back, only to see that the wound on his back was cracking open like a child's mouth, and black blood was coming out of the wound. While bandaging Rokossovsky, the military doctor anxiously said to Malinin: "Comrade Chief of Staff, the commander's condition is very serious, it is a shrapnel wound, it may have hit the spine, and it is necessary to immediately send it to the military hospital in the rear, otherwise what danger will there be?" ”

"Hell," Kazakov heard this, and couldn't help but interject: "It's more than two hundred kilometers from Moscow, and Rokossovsky's injuries simply don't allow for bumpy roads that far." ”

Malinin thought that Kazakov was very reasonable, so he asked tentatively: "Doctor, can I do surgery here?" ”

"No," the military doctor resolutely gave Ma Lining an affirmative answer: "The medical conditions on the front line are not good, if you rashly operate on the commander, if you accidentally injure the nerves in your spine, even if he survives, he can only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair." ”

"So what to do?" When Kazakov heard this, his heart felt as if someone had pulled him hard, and he said with a sad face: "If Rokossovsky could only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, then he would rather die." ”

"We can't sit still, we have to find a way to save the commander." Malinin walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, while his mind was quickly thinking about how to treat Rokossovsky.

Just when everyone was helpless, a telephone placed on the table not far away suddenly rang, Maksimenko picked it up and listened to it for a moment, then handed the microphone to Malinin, and at the same time said: "Comrade Chief of Staff, it's the phone number of General Zhukov." ”

Malinin took the microphone, and as soon as he said "hey", he heard Zhukov's happy voice coming from the earpiece: "Colonel Malinin, has Rokossovsky returned to the headquarters?" ”

"Comrade General," Malinin said in a choked voice, "Commander, he... He's wounded! ”

"What, Rokossovsky is wounded?" Zhukov, who was in a happy mood, heard Malinin say this, his heart sank suddenly, he stood up and asked loudly into the microphone: "What happened, how could he be injured?" Was it on the way back to the headquarters that he was ambushed by the Germans? ”

"No, Comrade General." Malinin hurriedly said: "He was in the headquarters, he was shelled by the German army and unfortunately was wounded. ”

"Are the injuries serious?" Zhukov asked with concern.

"The injury was not light, he was shot in the back, and the military doctor said that the conditions of the front-line field hospital are limited, and during the operation to remove shrapnel, there is a possibility that the spinal nerve will be injured, so it is recommended to transfer to a military hospital in Moscow for treatment." After reporting on the situation, Ma Linin also expressed his worries: "We are more than 200 kilometers away from Moscow, and the roads are closed by heavy snowfall, and many sections are not open to traffic, so it is very difficult to send the commander to Moscow safely. ”

"I immediately sent a plane over to pick him up." After listening to Malinin's complaint, Zhukov immediately replied: "You should prepare as soon as possible. ”

After Zhukov ended the call with Malinin, he thought about it and picked up the high-frequency phone on the table again, and dialed the Kremlin: "Hey, it's Comrade Poskorebeshev, I'm Zhukov, I have 100,000 urgent things to report to Comrade Stalin." ”

A moment later, Stalin's voice came from the earpiece. He also thought that Zhukov was going to report some good news to him, so he asked with a smile: "Comrade Zhukov, is there any good news to report to me at the front?" ”

"On the contrary, Comrade Stalin." Zhukov spoke very quickly: "I just got the news that Rokossovsky was seriously wounded in the shelling of the German army and needs to be sent to Moscow immediately for treatment. ”

"What, Rokossovsky is wounded?" When Stalin heard this, he couldn't help frowning, "Is there a danger to life?" ”

"I think so, Comrade Stalin." Zhukov called Stalin to inform him of the bad news, and second, to send a plane to take Rokossovsky to Moscow, and at the same time to arrange the hospital for the operation. "Due to the road leading to the 16th Army, many sections of the road are impassable due to the deep snow, and I strongly request you to send a plane to bring Rokossovsky back to Moscow for treatment."

"Okay, I'll arrange that." After Stalin finished speaking, he hung up. Then he pressed the summoning bell on the table, and when Boskrebeshev came in, he directly ordered: "You immediately arrange a medical team to fly to Sushnych." ”

When the medical team, Sushinich, and Boskorebeshev heard these two words, their eyebrows couldn't help but rise, and a trace of ominous premonition suddenly surged in their hearts. He cautiously asked: "Comrade Stalin, I wonder which important commander of the 16th Army was wounded?" ”

"Rokossovsky was wounded, the injury is not minor, and it needs to be immediately sent back to Moscow for treatment." Stalin walked up to Pos Krebeshev, stared into his eyes and said: "Comrade Pos Krebeshev, you should understand the importance of Rokossovsky, so I will leave his safety to you, understand?" ”

"Comrade Stalin," Boskorybeshev had always had a good impression of Rokossovsky, and when he heard that he was seriously injured, he was also very anxious, and hurriedly assured Stalin: "I will make arrangements immediately, and I will definitely take Rokossovsky back to Moscow in the shortest possible time." ”

An hour later, a medical team arranged by Boskrebeshev arrived in Sushnych. The doctor who led the team removed the blood-stained bandage, carefully treated the wound, and then put a new bandage on it. Seeing that the doctor had done all this, Malinin immediately called four soldiers with big shoulders and round waists and carried Rokossovsky to the plane.
