"You calm down! I'm not on a whim! Yang Mingzhi also simply stood up, reached out to support Yevlov's shoulder, and finally pressed him down.

Yevlov, who was sitting down at this moment, looked puzzled, including Yerentina.

"Alright! All right! Berekov, you always have a reason! Now tell me, what exactly is your reason? What makes you so obsessed with leading the team yourself? ”

If you say that you want to fight because you just want to fight, you have to lead the troops yourself. If this reason is spoken, it will immediately lead to an explosion of public opinion! Even if Salinch doesn't care about military matters, he has a backstage. If this man thinks the reason is too absurd, he sends a telegram to Moscow, and the State Defense Committee has a ban on it, and he has to hire someone else.

And the question is, is there any reliable "other" now?

Yang Mingzhi calmed down and explained: "At the end of March, Balzen fought that battle that shouldn't have been fought at all! Although it was a tactical victory, it was also based on the fact that we had almost exhausted our elite veterans. Just imagine, in the battle at the beginning of the year, we lost a total of 1,600 men permanently, and Balzen lost 1,000 of us in the battle!

So, Yevlov, who do you think I should send? Now I am very uneasy about Balzen, not to mention that he himself lacks the self-confidence to command more than a battalion of troops on his own!

Balzen no! Two of my favorite generals, Lavrenty and Evgeny, whose battalions had suffered heavy losses, were now replenished with a large number of new soldiers, and it will take a long time for their combat effectiveness to return to what it used to be.

Who else but them? Rosakov and Kravsky? Compared to guerrilla warfare, they are definitely experts in positional warfare!

Peronissky, Tchaikov, and Vasilyev, who fought a lot of guerrilla battles before joining us, ended up losing more than winning too little, and they were not guerrilla experts. Especially Peroniski, he himself still eats more meat to get back all the lost muscle and fat!

In this way, the elite we can choose is only the more than 2,000 people of the 233 brigade! However, even though these men had been training for a month to adapt to the unique state of forest warfare, they had not once exchanged fire with the enemy since they became an army!

So! Yevlov, who else do you think will command this operation? ”

This barrage of explanations left Yevlov speechless, and the old man's words seemed to make sense, but in fact he didn't want to lead the troops into battle himself?

Yevlov still emphasized: "As the commander of the army group, but also as a general!" You deserve to be in command, and as for the scale of this operation, as well as the commander of the operation, we can discuss it again. Is it true that now you have to fight in person as a lieutenant general? If you are injured or sacrificed, who will lead us? ”

"Me! How could it be sacrificed? Yang Mingzhi waved his hand indifferently, which caused Yevlov to be quite dissatisfied.

"Berekov! As soldiers, we all have the possibility of sacrifice! You can't be reckless when you're in a high position! ”

"But! Who else but me? Do you think that something will happen to me? If I were going to die, I would have died at the beginning of the war last year! ”

Yevlov was so angry that he really didn't know how to convince this stubborn guy! Look at the woman she loves, if in the past, Yerentina would have stood up and quickly put up a bunch of reasons to make Berekov succumb, but now this woman simply didn't say a word!

Yang Mingzhi suppressed the irritability in his heart, and put on a fearless attitude on his face: "Yevlov, to be honest, if I would have sacrificed, I would have sacrificed a long time ago!" In this operation, we will mainly focus on sneak attacks, and I will also be fully prepared, and there will be no special or less troops involved in the operation!

If I were to be in danger this time, the possibility would be negligible. Instead of worrying about me now, I should worry about next month. I'm afraid that if my superiors suddenly issue an order for us to carry out a large-scale operation, will you still question me at that time? ”

Yevlov didn't fully understand, he waved his hand and said regretfully: "I can't tell you!" I'm afraid no one can talk about you! You are now a full-time military commander, and you have absolute power in the military aspect! According to the regulations, my deputy must also obey all your tasks! Even if it's a bit risky! ”

What he meant by this was completely helpless agreement, and Yang Mingzhi also shook his head helplessly: "You! This operation can only be achieved with the best results if I personally lead the team, as in the past. ”

……

"Even if Salinchkin is questioning, this operation must be led by me!"

As Yevlov said, because he is the commander of the army, who else can hinder military operations? At the morning "ventilation meeting," Yang Mingzhi explained his plan and ordered Yevlov to immediately inform the whole army of the new combat operation.

Although only a part of the soldiers will participate in this operation, the soldiers of the whole army, even the militia, must also be on first-level alert.

Every soldier has the opportunity to receive military merit when the selected unit participates in the war, and a large number of medals are still waiting to be issued! On the other hand, the possibility of expansion of this battle cannot be ruled out, and if, as usual, several German divisions are recruited and another major battle is fought, the troops will not be prepared for it!

This morning, Yang Mingzhi stayed in the office.

Peronissky arrived happily, and the two of them naturally stayed under the wall where the map of the region was hung, pointing at the map with sticks.

As a long-time guerrilla fighter in the forests near Mozyri, Peroniski was very familiar with the environment in that area, so he had to take part in this operation.

It's just that his image is still terrible - emaciated!

Look at his appearance, this old face will become a skeleton if it is thinner, and there are not many muscles on his body. With such physical fitness, can you really cope with long-distance raids? Yang Mingzhi had to be suspicious.

Paradoxically, this is an indispensable guide and advisor, and his physical condition is worrying.

"Commander, don't worry! I am thin and not frail, and after a period of recovery, my body has accelerated as before, and I can't hold back the troops! If you really don't worry about my body, it's a big deal not to let me carry my bags, just travel lightly! ”

This man patted his chest and assured that the truth was really what he said? Yang Mingzhi will be skeptical.

Thinking about it, some people are born thin, this guy has been fighting guerrilla for more than half a year, not to mention the strength, at least the endurance has been exercised as ordinary people. The Locomotive Guerrilla Brigade was forced to fight every day, and the marching in the forest was self-professed.

Yang Mingzhi shrugged his shoulders, let alone these things, and specially instructed: "So before the operation begins, you'd better find a few young and strong young men from your team, and you yourself, eat more meat and drink some milk during this time, at least be stronger." ”

This concern was touching, and Peronis was fully engaged in the next step - explaining to the commander the general situation of the Moziri-Cherobie railway section.
