The news of Erastov's military food in exchange for transport vehicles soon reached Rokossovsky's ears. Knowing that those soldiers exchanged a limited amount of food for valuable vehicles, he really didn't know what to say, so he smiled bitterly and said a few words: "Nonsense, it's just nonsense." ”

"Comrade Marshal, I think our fighters are doing the right thing." When Su Bojing, who was sitting in his office, heard Rokossovsky say this, he immediately came out to fight for the fighters: "According to my location, when Leningrad was under siege, due to food shortages, many people even exchanged their entire set of furniture for a cat; Or exchange the jewels handed down from the tsarist era for two hundred grams of bread.

Not to mention the black bread that our soldiers used in exchange for transportation, it was one kilogram each, and even if they didn't give anything, they could still use direct confiscation to take those cars or other means of transportation from the Germans, and the other party would not dare to say anything. It is very merciful to give them food to last for a few days. ”

Rokossovsky didn't want to discuss this issue with Subotin, he was more concerned about how the team sent to carry out the "Disc Plan" was progressing now. Just in time for Bogolyubov to come in to report on the situation, he asked bluntly: "Comrade Chief of Staff, Colonel Shevchak, do they have any news?" ”

"Yes, Comrade Marshal." Bogolyubov, who was preparing to report on the march of the troops, heard Rokossovsky's question and hurriedly replied: "I just received a call from General Vinogradov, who said that Colonel Shevchak and they had disguised themselves as SS soldiers and infiltrated the aircraft factory in the city of Breslau. ”

"Hell, they pretended to be SS and infiltrated the aircraft factory?" When Rokossovsky heard this, he immediately frowned: "This Shevchak is also a brainless person, there are more than forty of them, and so many SS soldiers popped up in the aircraft factory at once, doesn't it arouse the suspicion of the enemy?" ”

"Comrade Marshal, I don't know exactly what happened." Bogolyubov didn't expect Rokossovsky to get angry, so he cautiously asked: "Otherwise, I'll call General Vinogradov and ask him to come and give you a detailed introduction to the real situation over there." ”

Thinking that this "round plan" was a joint action with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, if we wanted to listen to Vinogradov's report, it would obviously be inappropriate for Lunev, as the representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Front, not to participate. Therefore, Rokossovsky instructed Bogolyubov: "Chief of Staff, after you have called General Vinogradov, you have made another call to General Lunev and asked him to come and listen." ”

Even if Rokossovsky does not mention Lunev, Bogolyubov will remind him. At this moment, since Rokossovsky took the initiative to mention inviting Lunev to come with him, he said casually: "Understand, Comrade Marshal, I will inform General Lunev to come here." ”

Ten minutes later, Vinogradov and Lunev arrived at the office one after the other. As soon as Lunev entered the door, he saw Vinogradov among the people sitting at the conference table, and guessed that it might be related to the "Disc Project", so he asked Rokossovsky curiously: "Comrade Marshal, did you call me here to have something to do with the 'Disc Project'?" ”

"That's right, General Lunev." Rokossovsky nodded and replied: "It is indeed related to the 'Disc Project', is there any news from Major Kulishenko that you sent?" ”

When Lunev heard Rokossovsky's question, he glanced at Vinogradov, who was sitting next to him, with some surprise, and thought to himself: Didn't Shevchak send back information about the city of Breslau? Although his heart was full of questions, he still replied respectfully to Rokossovsky's question: "Comrade Marshal, is there no intelligence feedback from General Vinogradov's side?" ”

Rokossovsky smiled bitterly and said: "General Vinogradov just came, and before I could ask, you came in." I heard, however, that troops from both of you, disguised as SS, infiltrated the aircraft factory in Breslau. I have a question, wouldn't the sudden appearance of more than forty SS soldiers in such a crucial place arouse the suspicion of the garrison commander in the manufactory? If he calls or sends a telegram to ask, won't you just be a gang? ”

"Comrade Marshal!" After figuring out what Rokossovsky was worried about, Lunev smiled and said: "You can rest assured, the combined detachment, with the cooperation of friendly forces, eliminated an SS unit that went to the aircraft factory yesterday, and took their place and mixed into the aircraft factory. Even if the German commander in the factory was suspicious, as soon as he reported to his superiors, he would immediately know that there was indeed such a unit that was going to the manufacturing plant. ”

In order to dispel Rokossovsky's concerns, Lunev continued: "The officer who led the SS was a commando group leader of the second class, the equivalent of an SS major. He was impersonated as Major Kurishenko, who had been on duty in Germany for many years, and just by hearing him speak German, he thought he was a real German. I don't think the enemy will know who they are. ”

Lunev said everything to this point, but Rokossovsky's heart was still unsteady: "It's one thing to speak German well, but what if someone in the factory knows the SS officer that Kulishenko is impersonating?" Even if you haven't seen it, what if you meet a clever person who deliberately sets a few traps when talking to him to make him show his flaws? ”

Rokossovsky's series of questions made Lunev, who was originally smiling, turn his face blue. He only received a telegram from Kurishenko saying that he had infiltrated the aircraft factory with people and was trying to find a way to get close to the Belonse disc, and it was believed that good news would come soon. Who knew that after listening to Rokossovsky's words, he realized that there were so many flaws, and as long as the Germans were not stupid, they could see through them at any time.

Thinking of this, Lunev couldn't help but fight a cold war, and then asked in a bit of a panic: "Comrade Marshal, then what should we do to avoid letting the enemy see through our disguise?" ”

"I'm afraid this matter will have to get rid of Marshal Zhukov's help." Rokossovsky said thoughtfully: "I can ask him to send troops to launch a feint attack on the city of Breslau in order to divert the attention of the enemy." But the enemy focused all his attention on the battle to defend the city, and no one would be idle and bored to check Kurishenko's identity. ”
