Telegrams from the division headquarters went directly to the prison.

Before the war, it was the detention center of the police department in the city of Chernihiv, and today it is a good place to hold anti-German elements and suspicious people.

The pseudo-police failed to get valuable information from the prisoners, and they were naturally reprimanded. In desperation, the pseudo-policeman had no choice but to repeat the prisoner's curse.

Hendryson thought about it for a long time, but still thought that the possibility of an enemy air attack was very high.

"Air raids? You're kidding! What air strikes did the Russians take? Their planes? What's the point of them bombing the city? "The chief of staff decisively rejected the judgment of the division commander from a military point of view.

"Maybe! We are a big city after all, and in the face of the barbarism of the Russians, they are likely to bomb the city, and they do not care about the life or death of the inhabitants of the city, because in their opinion, the inhabitants here are not willing to fight us to the death, and they can continue to live, they are the so-called traitors! ”

The chief of staff shook his head: "Your Excellency, Division Commander! Your argument is a bit far-fetched! As far as I know, the bombers of the Russians preferred to go and attack military targets, what does the city have? It's just a large population! Besides, if the Russians have bombers, and they don't drop them on the Kharkiv operation, but instead go to attack us with airstrikes, do we have any important targets here? ”

Hendryson was stopped by these words, and he picked up the telegram and looked through it again, feeling more and more confused, and finally complained: "Forget it, I hope this is Russian nonsense!" Schmidt, I'm already tired! I've got to go to bed right now, and no one wants to bother me anymore. At eight o'clock after dawn, you arrange for the prisoners to be escorted to the gallows in the city square, and then the citizens are driven to the square! This time we have destroyed the enemy's stronghold in one go, and we want to show the citizens our great martial arts! ”

"Okay! I'll take care of it! You go to rest first, you don't have to worry about anything. ”

The chief of staff of the German 634th Division was more responsible for the day-to-day operation of the German Division. This Schmidt, who boasted of having a set of abilities in planning combat operations, and the troops were acting as urban garrison divisions, he believed that controlling order was what he was best at.

So how do you control order? Is there anything more effective than coercion?

Many of Chernihiv's intersections were under the direct control of heavily armed German soldiers, and army patrols in the city continued even at nightfall. Even so, the fact that the "rats" can still move is tireless, and now, it seems that the "rats' nests" have been destroyed!

The German officers and men of the 634th Division enjoyed a peaceful night in the camps inside and outside the city, and the Luo army twenty kilometers away was tossed again. The riots in the village of Silemanka finally subsided, and after this toss, the Luo army was exhausted to the extreme, and some soldiers even developed mental allergies, and developed a great fear of the darkness around them.

And in the swamp dozens of kilometers away, Salinchkin and Yevlov, who were asleep, were urgently awakened, and when they saw the urgent telegram they received, their sleepiness was gone.

Salinchkin hurried to the command of the army, he wanted to consult with Yevlov urgently, not thinking that he had already found that Yevlov had convened an emergency military meeting.

Under the dim oil lamp, Yevlov was not at all surprised by the sudden visitor, but urged: "Comrade Salinchkin! Looks like you know! Then come in and let's talk about what to do. ”

Then, Yevlov announced to several of the participants: "We have just been informed of the emergency situation in Chernihiv, the enemy has destroyed our underground intelligence station, and several comrades have been captured!" They are about to be hanged by the Germans! Our plans to attack Chernihiv, should have also been leaked. What do we do now? What to do with the launch plan of rocket artillery? ”

The meeting was attended by ordinary staff officers, others were high-ranking officers such as Fomin and Yerentina, and Salinchkin participated directly in the meeting on behalf of the guerrilla republic's officials.

Seeing that everyone else was silent, Salinchkin said resolutely: "The arrow has to be sent!" Besides, neither the arrows nor the bow are in our possession! Comrade Yevlov, we are here to discuss these contingencies, Comrade Berekov does not hear them. The launch plan of this rocket launcher will definitely follow the original plan, and I don't think we will be able to interfere with Berekov! ”

"But! Our eyeliner was all destroyed by the Germans, and even the documents were seized. ”

"Now that it's happened, we can only turn our grief into strength." Salinchkin propped up his little glasses: "I want to emphasize. You said that the eyeliner is destroyed, which is wrong! If we really don't have eyeliner, how do you get this telegram? In fact, there are still some comrades who have escaped this catastrophe, and they will continue to be the eyeliner! As for the so-called intelligence leaks, it doesn't matter anymore! ”

"What Comrade Salinchkin said has a point!" Fomin chimed in: "Our comrades in Chernihiv were killed, and the work of these underground spies determined the danger of their environment. They sacrificed! They will not die in vain! We will take revenge with rocket artillery! ”

Fomin's attitude was very clear, which really made Yevlov think about it. It seems that this person no longer talks about what rocket artillery will hurt innocents, and he has also become a staunch supporter of the actual combat of Exocet rocket artillery.

Yevlov looked at the crowd and slowly stood up: "So that we have no objections, and no one can interfere with Berekov's actions!" After dawn, let's wait for the good news! ”

There was no need to report this urgent telegram to the troops at the front, and indeed, the matter would not be a hindrance at all.

Yang Mingzhi is very stable this night.

As soon as the day began to darken, the fighters in the Slavdzich ruins began to carry the Exocet rocket launchers out of the forest, and lined them up one by one, and even two of them were loaded on the launchers in advance.

A thin morning mist filled the forest, the temperature was quite cold, and the soldiers' clothes and even their tents were also wet with dew. After the battle, the soldiers didn't care about the dampness at all, they got up one after another to the sound of the military trumpet, and first began to organize their equipment after a period of depression that they could not continue to sleep peacefully.

According to the plan, the troops were to be withdrawn in batches, and before the withdrawal, everyone had to witness the launch of rocket artillery.

Yang Mingzhi immediately regained his vigor after waking up, he simply nibbled on some baked potatoes, and then went straight to the ruins of the city with all the officers and men of his guards and reconnaissance battalion.

When he arrived, it was already half past eight in the morning, the rising sun had lifted the clouds, and the majestic posture of two rocket launchers appeared in front of him.

Yang Mingzhi hurriedly ran over, very satisfied with everything in front of him.

At this moment, most of the officers and men of the Second Regiment gathered on this ruin, and the two thousand men swore to be witnesses. They are not mere spectators, but also executors of launches.

Lavrenti and Yevgeny were already waiting for the commander.

Seeing the presence of the commander, Lavrenty saluted: "Report to Comrade Commander!" Exocet rocket launcher launch system, Zhuyuan has been debugged, please instruct! ”

"Finish! Now it's my turn to see for myself! ”
