Rokossovsky, in his command, received a call from Leviagin that a female partisan had been found in the newly liberated village of Petryshevo, who had been killed by the Germans. Because he didn't know that the sacrifice was the famous Zoya, he didn't pay much attention to it when he reported to Rokossovsky, but just casually mentioned it when reporting the results.www.biquge.info

Unexpectedly, Rokossovsky remembered Zoya's affairs well, and Leviagin focused his attention when he mentioned the village of Petryshevo, and when he heard that there was a female partisan in the village who was brutally killed by the Germans, he immediately guessed that it might be Zoya that he knew in later generations. So he said into the microphone: "Comrade General, order your subordinates to protect the scene, and I will rush over immediately." ”

Seeing that Rokossovsky was about to go out, Lobachev couldn't help but ask a little strangely: "Comrade commander, what are you going to do here?" ”

"That's right, Comrade Military Commissar." Rokossovsky replied while putting on his hat: "General Leviagin reported that after seizing the village of Petrishevo, they found the body of a female partisan brutally killed by the Germans, and I intend to go and see it." ”

"Comrade Commander, from the time of our counteroffensive to the present, such things are not unusual at all, and they can be seen in many villages and settlements." Lobachev looked at Rokossovsky, who was about to go out, and said: "I think this matter should be handled by the comrades below, you don't need to make a trip yourself." ”

"Comrade Military Commissar, please come with me." After Rokossovsky finished speaking to Lobachev, he turned his head to Zakharov and said to him with a serious expression: "And you, Comrade Deputy Commander, go with you." ”

Seeing that Rokossovsky, who had always referred to himself as "you", actually used the honorific of "you" at this moment, Lobachev felt that this matter was not necessarily necessary, so he readily agreed.

An hour later, Rokossovsky's jeep arrived in the village of Petrishevo. In the distance, you can see the commander of the 8th Guards Division, Levyakin, standing at the entrance of the village, and as soon as Rokossovsky's car stopped, he immediately ran over and opened the door, and reported to Rokossovsky, who got out of the car: "Comrade commander, according to your order, the remains of the female partisans are still in place, and no one has touched them. ”

Rokossovsky and several of them, led by Leviakin, walked towards the open space in the village. On the way, Lobachev asked Leviakin: "Comrade General, tell me what is going on." ”

Leviagin turned his head and glanced at Lobachev, then hesitated for a moment before replying: "Comrade Military Commissar, the commander of the 1075th Regiment under my command is more familiar with this matter, and I think it is better for him to report to you later." ”

After a while, the group came to the location of Zoya's body. Rokossovsky looked down at the body lying in the snow, and couldn't help but think of a so-called article in later life that interpreted the truth, saying that Zoya burned not the stables of the German army, but the houses of ordinary people. He also slandered Zoya as a mentally ill person, and said that only a mentally ill person would behave so meaninglessly. The photos of Zoya's corpse seen in later generations were faked and posed for Stalin's hit rate.

But a lie is a lie, and it does not stand up to the test of facts. Rokossovsky saw with his own eyes that Zoya, whose hands were tied behind her back, lying on her back on the ground, her head tilted to the side severely, her upper body exposed, her left side had been cut off, and her eyes had been gouged out, leaving only hollow eye sockets. Seeing this scene, Rokossovsky couldn't help but be furious, he turned his head and asked Leviagin: "Comrade general, what about the regiment commander under you, let him come and give us a briefing on the specific situation." ”

The regimental commander stood in the crowd, and when he heard Rokossovsky's words, he immediately took a few steps forward, came to Rokossovsky, raised his hand and saluted, and began to report to him on the interrogation of German prisoners and the information obtained from the insider Polina: "...... After the female partisans were captured, they were ravaged by the Germans. After the first round of interrogation, she was taken barefoot and dressed only in thin clothes by the Germans to the home of a peasant named Vasily Kulik, where the commander of the 332nd German Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Lyutelier, personally interrogated her.

The interrogation lasted more than two hours, and when Zoya answered questions about her comrades, the bases of her guerrillas and their leaders, she always said: No, I don't know, I won't tell you, and she calls herself 'Dan Niang'.

An enraged German commander ordered the soldiers to whip her with a belt, more than 200 times, but she remained silent. She was then escorted to Vasily Kulik's house, where 26 German soldiers lived, and she was tortured all night......

In her coma, she asked for water, but Deko knocked over the glass of water that Kulik had brought her, and put a lit kerosene lamp in her face to burn her. Later, when the other Dekou went to sleep, the sentry standing guard pulled her into the snow and made her walk barefoot for more than an hour......

Early in the morning, she was brought to trial, but the enemy found nothing. Eventually, she was given a shirt and the same trousers and stockings she wore when she was whipped. All her original warm clothes were lost by the Germans, and her boots were gone. When the German officer asked the hostess to put on her stockings, her legs were swollen from the cold, and it took a lot of effort to put them on. The Dekor hung a wooden sign on her chest with the words 'Arsonist' written on it and took her to the square to be executed.

Before her death, she shouted: 'We are not alone, we are 200 million, and the enemy cannot hang us all!' The people will avenge me! German devils, it's not too late for you to surrender, the final victory must be ours!

Then she appealed to the villagers of Petrishevo: 'Be brave and rise up and fight!' Beat the fascists, burn them, poison them! I die without regret in doing so, and I am happy to die for my own people! Farewell, comrades! Fight, don't be afraid! ’

In order to intimidate the villagers, Deko hung her on the gallows for almost two months, and the villagers were not allowed to collect her body. On New Year's Eve, a drunken German soldier cut her body to pieces with a knife.

As our troops approached here, Lieutenant Colonel Leuttierer, commander of the 332nd Infantry Regiment of the German Army, ordered the gallows to be dismantled for the purpose of destroying the incriminating evidence, and threw the remains of a rope still around his neck into a pit for burial. ”

After listening to the regiment commander's account, Rokossovsky's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and sobs sounded around him. After snorting, he asked the regimental commander standing in front of him: "Comrade Colonel, where were the prisoners you captured when you liberated the village?" ”

The regimental commander pointed to the woods at the edge of the village and said, "Comrade commander, my soldiers are digging a pit there with them." ”

Rokossovsky glanced in the direction pointed by the regiment commander, and sure enough, he saw that in the snow outside the woods, quite a few people were busy, and asked puzzledly: "What are they digging holes for?" ”

"Let them bury the bodies of the fascist invaders who were killed." The regimental commander looked at the German prisoners in the distance and said in a disgusted tone: "Our soldiers do not have the extra strength to bury these cruel beasts. ”

"When they have dug their holes, they will shoot all the captives on the spot." Rokossovsky gritted his back molars and gave a bold order: "For such two-legged brutes, we will absolutely not accept their surrender." ”

"Comrade commander," Lobachev was taken aback by hearing Rokossovsky's order, he quickly wiped the tears from his face and persuaded: "Since the Germans have already surrendered to us, it is not appropriate to shoot them again, right?" ”

Rokossovsky looked down at the corpse of Zoya lying on the ground, and said in a hoarse voice: "I have seen this little girl, her name is Zoya, on the eve of the October Revolution, with the partisans who went deep behind enemy lines, through the defense area of the 8th Guards Division. At that time, she also chatted with General Panfilov. ”

Rokossovsky's words were half-truths, and Zoya and the other partisans had indeed entered the German-occupied zone through the defense zone of the 8th Guards Division; As for her name, she only knew it by reading the history books of later generations.

"I agree with the commander." Zakharov, who had been silent, spoke: "If the enemy in general lays down his arms and surrenders to us, we will definitely give them preferential treatment." But for this kind of fascist bandits, who are inferior to beasts, I think they should all be shot. ”

"That's right, I also agree with Comrade Commander's approach." Leviagin said resolutely: "We must not spare this enemy who brutally killed our comrades, and we should destroy them all." ”

After Leviagin finished speaking, the commanders and villagers gathered around also shouted in unison: "Kill them!" Kill them!! ”

After Rokossovsky and the shouting around him stopped, he ordered Leviakin: "Comrade General, find a way to find a coffin and decorate our heroine." ”

When Leviagin personally went to arrange the matter, Rokossovsky turned around and ordered the telegraph operator who was following him: "Telegrapher, report what is happening here to the commander of the Front." ”

After more than ten minutes, Zhukov's call back arrived, with only one sentence on it: "I support you!" ”

When a dense burst of gunfire rang out and the captured German officers and soldiers fell one after another in their own graves, Rokossovsky received a special order signed by Stalin himself. In the order, Stalin righteously told all the commanders and fighters of the Western Front: All officers and soldiers who captured the 332nd Regiment of the 197th Infantry Division of the German Army will be shot on the spot, and we will not accept their surrender!
