After Serova had finished talking about returning to the front with Rokossovsky the day after tomorrow, she chatted briefly, then shouted to go back and pack her luggage, and left the ward in a hurry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

That night, neither Borisova nor Serova appeared in Rokossovsky's ward, which made Rokossovsky's heart feel extremely lost.

Early the next morning, he changed into a military uniform and hurried to the staff headquarters, trying to find out the specific situation at the front.

He was in the office of the Chief of the General Staff, and did not find Vasilevsky, so he turned around and went to the War Department, where he also did not find the minister, only the deputy head of the Direction Department, Shtemenko: "Comrade Director, do you know where the acting Chief of the General Staff and the Chief of Operations went?" ”

Hearing Rokossovsky's question, Shtemenko said in surprise: "What, General Rokossovsky, don't you know that the Acting Chief of the General Staff and the Chief of Operations are not here, and left Moscow last night. ”

Shtemenko's words also surprised Rokossovsky: "What, the two leaders are not there, where did they go?" ”

Shtemenko looked towards the door, and when he saw that no one was passing outside, he lowered his voice and said: "The two chiefs went to the Southwestern Front and the Southern Front respectively to coordinate and command the new campaign that was about to be launched!" ”

"Kharkov offensive campaign!" Rokossovsky said silently in his heart: "That's right, such a big offensive campaign really needs the head of the General Staff to coordinate and avoid confusion in command. ”

As for Rokossovsky's return to the troops tomorrow, Shtemenko apparently knew. He walked to the safe by the wall, opened it, took out a document from it, turned around and walked back to Rokossovsky. He handed the document to Rokossovsky: "Comrade General, this is a combat order from your superiors!" ”

When receiving the document, Rokossovsky asked tentatively: "Comrade Director, my troops have suffered very serious losses in the recent battles, and I wonder if the superiors can give us additional troops?" ”

Shtemenko pointed to the document in Rokossovsky's hand with his hand and said with a smile: "In order to strengthen your offensive strength, the superiors have strengthened a tank corps for you, and by the time you return to the troops, this tank corps should have reached the Zhizdra region." After a pause, he continued to tell what was written in the document, "Together with the 61st Army on the right flank, you will launch a new offensive against the Germans, and if possible, preferably liberate Bryansk." ”

Although the commanders of the armies on his left and right flanks are all called Popov, Rokossovsky has been thinking about cooperating with Popov, the commander of the 10th Army on the left flank, to launch an attack on the enemy; But now the higher-ups ordered themselves to cooperate with the commander of the 61st Army on the right flank, Popov. Although the names of the two commanders are the same, because the units that cooperate in the operation are different, the original operational plan must be readjusted in many places.

When Rokossovsky returned to the ward, he took out his original battle plan, referred to the military map spread out on the hospital bed, and carefully thought about where to make adjustments.

At work, Rokossovsky did not have the energy to think about Borisova or Serova, he only paid attention to the military map in front of him, and he scrutinized his battle plan over and over again, not daring to be careless, because the slightest mistake would lead to the cost of blood and lives of thousands of people.

"Koschika, what are you up to?" Just as Rokossovsky felt a sense of accomplishment in his new battle plan, Serova's voice suddenly came from behind him: "I stood at the door for at least five minutes, but you didn't notice my arrival at all. ”

Rokossovsky turned around and smiled apologetically at Serova, and then began to pack up the map and battle plan on the bed, although Serova was his close friend, but these things on the bed involved military secrets, and he still didn't want her to know the contents of it.

After he packed his things, he walked up to Serova, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, and noticed that her appearance was different from usual. In the past, she wore a red tweed coat, but today she wears a civilian military uniform with a wide military belt tied around her waist.

Rokossovsky saw Serova's outfit and asked curiously: "Serova, why are you dressed like this?" ”

"I'm going to follow you to the front tomorrow, and in order not to become a target for the Germans, of course you can't wear clothes that are too conspicuous!" After Serova finished speaking, she reached out and grabbed Rokossovsky's arm, and said as she pulled it out: "Koschika, my luggage is still outside, help me bring it in." ”

"What, your luggage is outside?" When Rokossovsky heard Serova say this, he couldn't help but look at her with wide eyes, and said in his heart You brought all the luggage, what do you mean? Are you planning to stay here tonight?

"Of course," Serova explained, helping Rokossovsky to carry his suitcase, "and you're leaving tomorrow morning at seven o'clock, and if I don't stay here, I'm afraid I'll not be able to make it." ”

"But, Serova." After Rokossovsky put his luggage in the corner, he said with some embarrassment: "Then what are you going to do tonight, can't you live here?" ”

"Koschika, don't you welcome me?" Serova put her arms around Rokossovsky, rubbed her plump chest against it, and said in a delicate voice: "Do you have to go out into the street in the middle of the night?" ”

In the dead of night? When Rokossovsky heard Serova say the word, he instinctively glanced at the wall clock on the wall and saw that it was actually eleven o'clock in the evening. He silently thought in his heart: Borisova did not come tonight, and it seems that I will not see her until we leave Moscow.

While Rokossovsky was thinking, Serova had already let go of his arms, quietly walked to the door, locked the door from the inside, and then pounced on Rokossovsky.

As soon as Rokossovsky wanted to speak, her mouth was gagged by her. She put one hand tightly around Rokossovsky's back, and the other began to untie his hospital gown. Faced with the temptation of a beautiful woman, unless Megumi Yanagishita can keep it, normal people can't stay calm at all.

Rokossovsky, as a normal man, in the face of Serova's temptation, only felt that his scalp was numb, his heart was beating faster, and his hands were not to be outdone, he moved on Serova's body, unfastened the military belt with ease, and then gently put the rosy Serov down on his hospital bed.
