Rokossovsky couldn't remember when he fell asleep, but when he opened his eyes, Tatiana, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, was gone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and two doctors and nurses wearing masks walked into the ward and said to the sleepy-eyed Rokossovsky: "Comrade General, good morning!" It's time to get your blood pressure checked and your shots shots! ”

From the other party's voice, Rokossovsky heard that it was the doctor from yesterday morning, and he did not ask where Tatiana had gone stupidly, but asked very cooperatively: "In addition to injections, do you need infusions?" ”

The doctor looked at the case in his hand, then shook his head and said, "Your body is recovering well, you don't need an infusion for the time being." After saying that, the nurse who rushed to the side glanced at her and asked her to take Rokossovsky's blood pressure and give him an injection.

When everything was done, when the two were leaving, the doctor who walked to the door suddenly stopped, turned to Rokossovsky: "By the way, Comrade General, there is something I almost forgot to inform you." There's a big guy coming to visit you later. ”

"Big shots?" Rokossovsky curiously asked: "Comrade doctor, do you know who it is?" ”

The doctor didn't speak, just shook his head, and then left the room.

After the doctor left, Rokossovsky began to speculate about who would visit him. First of all, the members of the 16th Army were completely excluded by him, because Malinin and Kazakov had only come yesterday, and it was impossible to send someone again today. If it was from the front, Zhukov would not have been able to do so, he would have to command the front line and not be able to pull away at all; Sokolovsky, the chief of staff, was also a busy man, and he certainly couldn't leave; In this way, the only person who could come to visit him was Bulganin, the military commissar of the Front.

However, it was only after the visitors showed up that Rokossovsky realized that he had guessed wrong. It was not at all the people in the army who came, but Stalin's secretary Boskorebeshev. He walked to the side of the hospital bed, bent down and shook hands with Rokossovsky, and said politely: "Comrade Rokossovsky, I came to visit you on the order of the Supreme Commander himself, I wonder how your body is feeling recently?" ”

"Thank you, Comrade Stalin, for your concern." Rokossovsky, while shaking hands with Boskorybeshev, said clichés: "I am recovering well!" ”

After sitting down at the bedside, Boskorebeshev continued: "Comrade Stalin allows you to recuperate at ease, you don't have to worry about things at the front for the time being, and you will return to the army after your injuries have healed. ”

After the two talked about some unnutritious clichés, Boskorebeshev saw that the doctor who accompanied him had left, so he changed the subject: "Comrade General, I am here today, in addition to visiting you on the orders of Comrade Stalin, there is another thing I want to verify. ”

Seeing the expressionless face of Boskoshreshev, Rokossovsky's heart couldn't help but chuckle, what did his heart say, why was the expression on his face so serious? He tried his best to say in a calm tone: "Comrade Boskrebeshev, if you have anything, please tell me!" ”

"Here's how it goes," said Rokossovsky, and Boskoshrebeshev looked a little embarrassed: "I heard from my predecessor that a woman came to visit you the day before yesterday. ”

"Your ex?" Rokossovsky looked at the other party blankly and asked: "Who is your ex, I don't know?" ”

"Political Commissar of the 1st Army, Director of the General Political Department, Deputy People's Commissar of Defense Mekhlis," Boskobeshev finally said the name of his predecessor after a long list of titles: "Lev Zakharovich Mekhlis." ”

"It turned out to be him, what did he say?" When Rokossovsky heard this name, he couldn't help but sneer on his face, he didn't have a good impression of this person, he was a typical cheat. At the beginning of the war, he was first sent to the Western Front as a representative of the Supreme Command, but ended up arguing with Timoshenko. It would not be long before he would be sent by Stalin to the Crimean Front, which would turn the world upside down, leading to a crushing defeat for the Soviet army.

"He told Comrade Stalin that the day before yesterday, when he was at the headquarters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he had seen a beautiful woman who had come here to visit you. Because she couldn't find the specific problem of the hospital, she was arrested as a spy by the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs when she was wandering around. Poskrebeshev glanced at the door to make sure he hadn't eavesdropped on their conversation before he continued: "He said that the man was not your wife, but a strange woman whom he had never seen before. ”

Hearing that the matter between himself and Borisova had already been stabbed to Stalin, Rokossovsky's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he couldn't help but nervously ask: "What did Comrade Stalin say?" ”

After staring at Rokossovsky for a while, Boskrebeshev shook his head and said: "Comrade Stalin, as if he did not hear, did not say anything. ”

Just when Rokossovsky breathed a sigh of relief, he added: "But my predecessor seems to be a little unwilling, and once again told the Supreme Commander himself that you have a problem with your style of life, and asked Comrade Stalin, saying what should I do with you, you are too unscrupulous to engage women." ”

"What did Comrade Stalin say?" Rokossovsky's nerves tensed again.

Seeing Rokossovsky's nervous appearance, Boskrebeshev couldn't help but grin: "I said dude, don't be so nervous. You must know that you are now Comrade Stalin's favorite general, how can he be willing to dispose of you. After listening to my predecessor's words, he said disapprovingly: 'What else can we do, we can only wait for it.' If a woman comes to you, I will never interfere. ’”

After saying this, Boskrebeshev paused for a moment, and then added: "Don't look at him as Comrade Stalin's secretary, but there have always been contradictions between me and him. ”

Boskoshkeshev's words immediately dispelled the doubts in Rokossovsky's heart and narrowed the distance between the two. Rokossovsky asked in disbelief: "Comrade Bosklebeshev, if I did not understand correctly, Comrade Stalin took a blind eye to this matter, neither encouraging me nor reprimanding me?" ”

"That's right, exactly." Boskrebeshev looked at Rokossovsky and said in a tone of envy, jealousy, hatred: "In the heart of Comrade Stalin, it is inappropriate to reproach a general with great achievements for such a trifle. After saying that, he looked left and right for a moment, and asked teasingly, "I heard that she stayed here the night before, did something happen to you?" ”

"Look at what you said, how can this be, my injuries are not healed yet, and I need help from others to turn over now." After Rokossovsky said this, he asked with some humility: "How do you know?" ”

"You don't know." "Since I knew that this woman had come to visit you, my predecessor sent for a secret guard in the building opposite the hospital, and saw that she had left the next morning accompanied by a female military doctor," said Boskobeshev proudly. Later, he also sent someone to inquire that before you were transferred to the hospital, the woman visited you in the hospital every day, and also scrubbed your body every day on behalf of the nurse. ”

Boskosov's words shocked Rokossovsky into a cold sweat, thinking that his relationship with Borisova was relatively low-key, but he didn't expect to be checked by Mekhlis.

Just when Rokossovsky was in a state of shock, he heard Boskrebeshev continue to ask: "Comrade Borisova, I didn't come to you yesterday." ”

Hearing Bosk Klebeshev mention Borisova's name, Rokossovsky quickly nodded and asked curiously: "Yes, she didn't know why she didn't come last night." Comrade Boskorebeshev, do you know the reason? ”

"Of course I do." Rokossovsky actually asked casually, and did not expect to get the answer he wanted to know from Poskorebeshev. Unexpectedly, after hearing his question, the other party actually nodded and said: "Yesterday morning, Borisova was called to the office by the city leaders and arranged for her to take a delegation to Kuibyshev to visit and study, and it will take a week to come back at the earliest." ”

After figuring out the reason why Borisova didn't come last night, Rokossovsky secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also increased his vigilance, not thinking that his privacy would be exposed in front of others. Fortunately, he is still Zhukov's right-hand man, and if he loses his use value one day, these privacy, which is neglected today, may become evidence of his own conviction.

Just when Rokossovsky was a little uneasy, he only heard Boskrebeshev continue: "Comrade Stalin also said that when your health improves again, you will be transferred to the inpatient department of the First Moscow State Medical University, where workers, women workers, collective farm workers, writers, newspaper journalists, actors and artists visit the wounded every day, and you will not be as bored as you are now. ”

When he heard Boskoryshev mention the word actor, he suddenly remembered a post he had read on the Internet in later generations, the real Rokossovsky met the famous actress Valentina Serova who came to visit the wounded when he was hospitalized, and there was a scandal that seemed to be true and false.

When Boskoryshev was leaving, he specifically told Rokossovsky: "It doesn't matter what happens between you and Borisova during the war." But as soon as the war is over, the two of you must immediately cut off contact, otherwise your future will be affected. Do you understand? ”

Rokossovsky understood in his heart that what Pos Krebeshev said represented Stalin's meaning, and he quickly nodded twice: "Don't worry, Comrade Pos Krebeshev, I know it in my heart." ”

…………

Tatiana appeared in the hospital in the evening, and after changing into a white coat, the first thing she did was to go to Rokossovsky's ward, and said to him anxiously: "Comrade General, I went to the Leningrad District today to inquire, Borisova went to visit Kuibyshev yesterday with a delegation, and it will take a week at the earliest to return. ”

Although Rokossovsky had known about this for a long time, when he heard Tatiana say this, he still said with great gratitude: "Thank you, Tatiana, I already know about this." ”

"What, you already know?" When Tatiana heard Rokossovsky say this, she couldn't help but be a little skeptical, she knew that even if the people in the hospital had seen Borisova, they didn't know where she worked, and it was impossible for her to make a trip herself. So she asked curiously, "How do you know?" ”

"Today the secretary of the Supreme Commander himself, Pos Krebeshev, came," Rokossovsky saw the other party's confused look, and hurriedly explained to her: "He told me the news personally?" ”

"Comrade Stalin's secretary, told you?" Tatiana was so frightened that she almost sat directly on the ground, she hurriedly sat down next to Rokossovsky's hospital bed and nervously asked: "So, Comrade Stalin knows about you and Borisova?" ”

Rokossovsky nodded and said with certainty: "Yes, he already knows." ”

Tatiana grabbed Rokossovsky's arm and asked with a panicked expression: "What is Comrade Stalin going to do with you?" Will you be demoted or sent to the most dangerous battlefield? ”

"No, he didn't say anything." Rokossovsky felt that some things, if spread out, would lead to uncontrollable consequences, so he deliberately diverted the topic: "What do you say about dismissal and assignment? ”

"That's right," Tatiana quickly explained, "There used to be a general living here, who seemed to be the commander of some infantry army. It was because of an affair with a female military doctor in the field hospital that he was demoted to division commander and sent to the most dangerous place, and died on the battlefield not long after. ”

"Don't be nervous, I'm fine." Rokossovsky raised his hand and gently patted the back of Tatiana's hand, and said softly: "Thank you for your concern." ”

Only then did Tatiana realize that she was still holding Rokossovsky's arm, quickly let go, pretended to be indifferent, and said: "Who cares about you, I'm worried that it will affect Borisova's future." If nothing else, she may be transferred to the city in a few months. ”

If it had been before, Rokossovsky might have been worried about Borisova's future when he heard Tatiana say this. But since Poskorebeshev reassured himself today, he also had a spectrum in his heart, so when Tatiana said this, he confidently replied: "Don't worry, Tatiana, my stay with Borisova will definitely not affect her future prospects." You have to trust me about this. ”
