Escorting the retreat of the guerrilla brigade were fighters of the 2nd Regiment of the 284th Division, that is, two battalions led by Yevgeny.

In this small battle against Slavdish, Evgeny only followed the paratrooper brigade with a large force and baggage, and those fighters solved the enemy like a storm, leaving Evgeny with the task of cleaning up the battlefield. This disappointed him, but it was the commander's order.

Now the commander's order is again to ask him to lead people to send the guerrilla brigade away, but also to take away the captured usable supplies, and even to escort the captured Ukrainian puppet soldiers. Relying on only 1,000 people to accomplish so many tasks is not a small pressure.

Therefore, when Yang Mingzhi came to this airspace, the people of the guerrilla brigade were rectifying, and Yevgeny was also rectifying.

Seeing that the commander was inspecting, Yevgeny rushed to make a report: "Commander! We've got you covered! As long as you give us the order, we can act! ”

"You're fast! Now it will be up to the comrades of the partisan brigade to be ready. As he spoke, Yang Mingzhi walked over and muttered in a low voice: "I'm really worried about these people!" They're so weak, you don't expect them to walk more than one! ”

"Yes! Twelve kilometers of road, these people may have to walk all day! ”

Yang Mingzhi shook his head helplessly: "What can we do!" If we have been fighting the enemy for more than two weeks with extreme scarcity of supplies, it is already commendable that even the most elite troops will not collapse and surrender without all of them. ”

Yang Mingzhi pondered for a while, and then asked Evgeny to lean his ear over: "Listen, your main task is to properly escort our capture and all the prisoners of war back. You have to be careful of those Ukrainian puppet soldiers, the people who ordered you, if the puppet army has resistance, shoot Shuwei directly. As for the guerrilla brigades, they have weapons to protect themselves, and if they can't keep up with the troops, you just need to send up to one platoon to take part in the escort, and your large forces don't have to wait for them!

Once you reach the Missy Ferry, the mission is complete! I arranged thousands of people there, and you bring the escorted supplies and prisoners of war, and then bring ammunition and food, especially the newly arrived rocket launchers and RPG warheads, to Slavdish! I'm going to give a good beating up to the arrogant Romanians here! ”

Evgeny understood that he was the commander's old subordinate in the end, and if he was not in trust, how could he give himself such a resolute emergency logistics work? He received the order and saluted, and continued to supervise the work of his own people.

Yang Mingzhi was satisfied, but he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the large group of soldiers and civilians of the guerrilla brigade who were sitting in tattered clothes.

Soon he also met with Miroshniko.

After a few hours, the vicissitudes of life of this guerrilla brigade commander have been greatly alleviated. He washed his head and face, and also got a professional razor from the paratroopers, and shaved the beard that was already covered in the cheeks. In such a move, the whole person seems to be very spiritual.

In particular, the brigade commander made a sincere statement: "Our guerrilla brigade is completely at your disposal!" ”

This made Yang Mingzhi very satisfied, and called Ravlianji over.

"Excellent! The evacuation of the guerrilla brigade will be under the command of the deputy commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 284th Guards Infantry Division, comrade brigade commander, this is the temporary commander of your troops when they retreat! ”

They are all military men to each other, and because of the different ranks, Ravlendi is especially humble! Because he was subject to the demands of others, Miroshniko did not show the majesty of the brigade commander at all.

The meeting between the two took place in this very delicate atmosphere, and Miroshniko's humility also satisfied Yang Mingzhi.

Yang Mingzhi took the opportunity to ask: "So, comrade brigade commander, how many people do you plan to stay!" As I said before, I don't need much! ”

"Only forty-nine! They are all junior officers under my command! Are you satisfied? ”

Yang Mingzhi was stunned and quickly understood his intentions, and responded with satisfaction: "Very good!" Very good! These officers see how we fight! It's a good idea for them to learn a lot of knowledge, so that your troops' combat effectiveness can also increase quickly! ”

At half past eight in the morning, the retreat began!

The soldiers and civilians of the guerrilla brigade had a full meal, they ate a lot of potatoes, and they also ate some sweet and greasy biscuit paste.

Their spirits have recovered somewhat, and some of them are no longer in tattered clothes. They prayed to friendly units for some clothing to cover their bodies, and the soldiers who oversaw the booty threw some of the clothes that were too tattered at them out of sympathy. Yang Mingzhi was reluctant to help this kind of private behavior, but he did not criticize it either.

Especially the captured pair of leather shoes, even if the enemy is dead, the shoes are basically intact! These soles are wear-resistant military shoes, and of course you have to use good things for your own use. The warriors saw these new beggar-like allies, many of them simply barefoot! The feet have long been covered with mud and turned black, and the scratches on them are faintly visible!

This kind of assistance is a private act of the soldiers, and Miroshniko naturally thanked Yang Mingzhi.

Now that the incident has happened, Yang Mingzhi's slight dissatisfaction must also be thrown aside. He also knew that the more than 2,000 people in the guerrilla brigade were simply hungry, and most of the food carried by his more than 5,000 soldiers had been eaten! If it weren't for the fact that a lot of stored potatoes were found in the cellars of the city, the food problem would have become a big problem.

Yang Mingzhi would never have told Miroshniko about the fact that the large amount of potatoes eaten by his people actually took up human blood!

The cellars became a refuge for the enemy, and during the street fighting, the Soviet soldiers did not hesitate to use grenades to open the way in various confined spaces, and a large number of refugees, whether they were soldiers or civilians, were blown into bloody corpses by grenades. People died, and it was a pity that the large number of potatoes in the cellar was not eaten.

Blood-stained potatoes, Yang Mingzhi and his soldiers will never eat them! If the guerrilla brigade knew that potatoes were such a source, they would have refused to swallow them!

Anyway, the soldiers and civilians of these guerrilla brigades had already eaten their meals, and they would never know where the potatoes came from, and now, the group had formed a long line, with their few weapons and supplies, and began to retreat, led by Evgeny.

They left, eating a lot of food and leaving behind something usable - ammunition.

In total, the guerrilla brigade left more than 5,000 rounds of rifle ammunition, which were not very many, most of them Mauser. These rifle cartridges are pointed-nosed bullets, and the MG34 equipped in the army can still make do with it.

Because the battle with the Romanians was inevitable, Yang Mingzhi even had to hurry up and prepare for the war!

The two most important points in preparing for war are ammunition and food. At present, how does he think and feel that he is not doing well in these two points! There is not much food, and if the rocket artillery does not blow up the granary of the puppet army into powder during the siege, the food problem of the troops can be alleviated.

Yang Mingzhi therefore understood very well that he and Luo Jun had to fight quickly. In the same way, the large amount of grain that must have been stored at the Missy Ferry, and how much food Yevgeny could bring back also determined the length of the battle of the troops. Perhaps some Soviet commander would force his hungry soldiers to continue fighting to the death, but Yang Mingzhi did not dare to take such a risk.

Now he only knew that the Romanian army was approaching the forest, and made Slavdzich a strategic point that had to be entered. According to the German communications, they should have known that the city was lost, or that it had been captured by the Soviets, so they would order the nearest Romanian army to retake the city directly. In this way, the battle will be fought on a large scale around the city!

As important as the issue of military rations, the issue of ammunition, the puppet army disarmed and surrendered, so that the Soviet army directly captured up to 50,000 rounds of Mosin Nagant rifle cartridges! Moise was not stupid enough to put his ammunition depot on the surface, and his warehouse for his bullets and grenades was underground, so he miraculously survived the shelling.

This can be regarded as Yang Mingzhi's unexpected surprise, but these bullets alone are still not enough! On the battlefield, artillery is the king of war! Whether it's a mortar or a rocket launcher, the projectile explosives of an area strike are much more effective than bullets!

So, how many catfish rockets with relatively close range produced by the arsenal these days are there? Anyway, there is still a part of the stock!

Therefore, in the distant vision of the evacuees, Yang Mingzhi immediately sent a series of codes and plain orders to the blacksmith village and the defenders of the Mixi Ferry.

In what direction the war will develop, at this moment, he does not doubt that he can defeat the Luo army, but he is worried about what kind of revenge the enemy will take after this incident! "Alas! Let's take it one step at a time! If you attack in a big way, don't blame the swamp for being too deep in the mud! ”

The order has been given, it's time to put all your energy against the Romanians!
