  Chapter 1739 Gunshots in the building

   Lunev opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly the phone on the table rang.

"I'm sorry, Misha." Lunev reached out and picked up the receiver, and instead of sticking it to his ear immediately, he covered the receiver with his hand and apologized to Sokov: "I want to answer a call, you and Ah Thea first go and sit outside."

"Assia," Sokov knew that Lunev's phone call must be confidential, and it was obviously inappropriate for him and Assia to stay here, so he stood up with a cane and said to Assia; "We Go and sit in the office outside first."

   Lunev waited for Sokov and Asiya to leave his room and close the door before putting the microphone to his ear: "I'm Lunev, what's the matter?"

   An anxious voice came from the receiver: "Comrade Deputy Minister, the German spy who was caught by General Sokov some time ago finally confessed after our repeated interrogations."

   "Oh, confessed." Lunev said pleasantly: "Did you provide any valuable information?"

   "He said that he sneaked into Moscow this time to obtain an important piece of information."

   "What information?" Lunev asked: "Who gave him the information."

   "It is a plan for our army to launch an assault on the right bank of the Dnieper River. The person who provided him with information was a captain of our intelligence department, nicknamed Yodelshofa."

   "What's the captain's name and what does he look like?"

   "I don't know the specific name, I only know that it is a bald man, about forty years old..."

   Seeing that no more detailed information could be obtained from the other party, Lunev's face became serious: "Continue to interrogate, we must dig out the enemies hidden in our Ministry of Internal Affairs."

  When Lunev was talking on the phone with the personnel responsible for interrogating German spies in the office, Sokov and Asya were sitting in the outer office, chatting with Lunev's secretary.

  The secretary asked Sokov: "General Sokov, in a few days, you will be returning to the Frunze Military Academy to attend the training course for senior commanders, right?"

   "Yes." This matter is no secret, many people know. The person in front of him was Lunev's secretary, and it was said that Lunev had instructed him to complete some of the things he was studying at the Frunze Military Academy. So he replied truthfully: "In three or four days, a new round of training courses for senior commanders will officially start."

"Comrade General, I want to ask." The secretary asked: "After the senior commander training class starts, you will still go home every day as before, or live in the academy, go home every Friday afternoon, and come back on Sunday night. What about going back to school?"

  Sokov really didn't think about the question asked by the secretary. He thought for a moment, and then replied: "I needed to stay in the hospital for treatment a few months ago because my injuries hadn't healed, so Lieutenant Koshkin came to pick me up every day. Now my injuries are almost healed, There is no need to go back and forth every day, I think it is better to live in the college and go home every Friday afternoon."

"Okay, Comrade General." The secretary sat behind the desk, wrote down the matter in a notepad, and said to Sokov: "I will arrange for Lieutenant Koshkin to let him go every Friday afternoon. Go to the academy to pick you up."

"Thank you, Comrade Secretary, thank you so much..." Sokov was saying words of gratitude to the secretary when he suddenly heard two gunshots outside. He instinctively reached out to touch his waist, but found nothing. Only then did he remember that he had never worn a gun since he was wounded.

  The secretary also heard the gunshots outside, couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said to himself: "What's the sound outside?"

   "Gunshots."

   "This is impossible." The secretary immediately denied Sokov's statement: "This is the building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. How could there be gunshots? You must have heard it wrong."

"That's right, Comrade Secretary." Sokov, who has been on the battlefield for more than two years, is very familiar with the sounds of various guns firing, and he quickly said: "It's the sound of TT-33 pistols firing, believe me, absolutely Can't go wrong."

   As soon as the voice fell, there was another gunshot outside. This time the gunshot was clearer than before. It seemed that the shooting location was quite close to here. Then, the sound of pistol shooting sounded again, and at the same time there was the sound of shooting from the Bobosha submachine gun.

   "No, something happened!" The secretary opened the drawer in front of her, grabbed the pistol inside, walked around the desk, and rushed towards the door.

   After confirming that the sound of shooting was nearby, Sokov quickly got up and opened the door of the next bathroom, pushing Assia in. Seeing the secretary rushing towards the door, he quickly shouted at him: "Dangerous, don't..."

Before Sokov could finish yelling, there was the sound of intensive submachine gun shooting outside. The secretary who had just rushed to the door twitched like an electric shock. After a while, he fell on his back to the ground, with blood oozing out from under his body. , dyed the floor red a large area,.

  Sokov saw the secretary's pistol, which landed three or four steps away from him. At this time, he saw a figure appearing at the door, and it was too late to rush over to pick up the gun. He quickly jumped over, grabbed the gun that fell on the ground, and without aiming, he aimed at the figure at the door. trigger.

  The secretary's pistol is a TK pistol worn by personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This is the first semi-automatic pistol developed by the Soviet Union, with a capacity of eight rounds. Sokov pulled the trigger desperately, and fired all the bullets in the gun in one breath.

  When Sokov pulled the trigger again and again and found that no bullets were fired from the muzzle, he knew that he had fired all the bullets. He hurriedly looked towards the door, wanting to see how his shooting worked.

  I saw a bald captain without a military cap at the door. He held a TT-33 pistol in his left hand and a Bobosha submachine gun in his right hand. The bullet Sokov just fired hit his chest and abdomen. The captain's body stiffened, and then he knelt down on his knees, and then fell headfirst on the floor.

  Sokov climbed a few steps forward, put his hand under the opponent's nose, and found that he was no longer breathing. But just to be on the safe side, he still took the pistol and submachine gun from the opponent's hand.

   "What's going on, what's going on?" Lunev, who had just recovered, opened the door of the office and rushed out with a TK pistol in his hand, asking loudly, "Where is the gun shooting?"

  After seeing clearly the three people lying on the ground, he couldn't help being taken aback. He bent down to help Sokov and asked at the same time, "Misha, what's going on?"

"Don't move, raise your hands!" Before Sukov could speak, there were shouts at the door, and when he looked up, there were five or six soldiers standing at the door, all of them without exception. Point the gun at the house.

   "I'm Lunev." In order to prevent misunderstanding, Lunev stood up slowly, and said to everyone: "Put down your guns and don't let go of the fire."

When the soldiers put away their weapons and entered the door to check whether the bald captain was dead, Asiya ran out from the bathroom. When she saw Sokov lying on the ground, her eye circles suddenly turned red: " Misha, are you okay?"

   "I'm fine, help me up quickly."

   Seeing Asiya helping Sokov, before Lunev could order, two soldiers stepped forward to help, lifted Sokov up from the ground, and arranged him to sit on a chair next to him.

   "Misha," Assia saw a lot of blood on Sokov's military uniform, and asked worriedly, "Are you injured?"

   "No." Sokov shook his head, staring at the secretary's body lying on the ground, and whispered: "It should be the secretary's blood splashed on me."

   Lunev looked at the two corpses on the ground and asked angrily, "Who can tell me what's going on?"

   Sokov, who was sitting on a chair, looked up at Lunev and said, "Lunev, let me tell you what I know first."

   "Please tell me, Misha."

"It's like this. When Asiya and I were chatting with your secretary, there was a gunshot outside." Sokov explained to Lunev: "According to my experience, I can hear the gunshot immediately. TT-33 pistol. But after a while, while the pistol was firing, I heard the sound of the Bobosha submachine gun again.

  And your secretary, after hearing the gunshots outside, immediately took out his sidearm and wanted to go out to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, as soon as he rushed to the door, he was shot to death by the bald captain. But I saw that the situation was dangerous, so I pushed Asiya into the bathroom, picked up the secretary's pistol, and shot at the bald captain. "

After listening to Sokov's narration, Lunev turned his attention to a second lieutenant again, and said in a stern tone: "This is what happened, why did this captain shoot and kill my secretary? "

"Comrade Deputy Minister," the second lieutenant quickly straightened his body, and reported to Lunev: "I have received an order from my superiors, saying that this captain is a spy lurking in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Germans, and asked me to lead someone to arrest him. Who knows He was very alert, and as soon as our men approached him, he shot down two people and snatched a submachine gun."

   When the Second Lieutenant said this, he suddenly stopped, staring at Sokov who was sitting on the chair, and began to think in his mind.

   "Why didn't you say it?" Seeing that the second lieutenant stopped talking, Lunev was a little angry: "Keep talking."

"Yes!" The second lieutenant agreed, and continued: "I saw this man shoot at your office with a submachine gun. I was afraid that you would be in danger, so I took the risk and rushed over. Who knew that he didn't wait for us to get close. , I heard a series of gunshots from the room, and then the captain fell to the ground. I thought, I thought..."

   "For what?" Lunev continued: "Do you think I shot him?"

"Yes, Comrade Deputy Minister." The second lieutenant replied honestly: "That's what I thought at the time. After all, there will be no one else in the office except you and the secretary. Judging from the captain's initial behavior, Your secretary should have been shot and died, so the only one who can kill him is you."

The words of the second lieutenant made Lunev embarrassed: "If I have such a good marksmanship, it will be fine." Eight shots killed the captain. I am afraid that whether he can pull the trigger is a problem.

Just at this time Koshkin came over after hearing the news. When he saw the two corpses lying on the ground when he entered the door, he was also startled and asked quickly, "What happened here? I was downstairs just now and heard There was a burst of gunfire upstairs."

  In fact, Koshkin was not the only one who came to hear the gunshots, but also the security forces responsible for the security of the building. Their response was quick, and they rushed outside Lunev's office not long after hearing the gunshots.

   Noticing that there were more and more people outside the door, Lunev said to Sokov in a low voice: "Misha, I think you should go back first, and leave the affairs here to me."

Sokov, who had just experienced life and death, was still trembling unconsciously at this moment. Hearing Lunev's words, he said smoothly: "Okay, then I will go back first, and I will leave the work here to you." Let's deal with it."

Koshkin took Sokov and Asya to the car downstairs, and while the car was warming up, he asked Sokov curiously: "Comrade General, can you tell me what happened upstairs?" something?"

Sokov felt that the matter could not be concealed for long, so he simply told the truth: "Lunev's subordinates discovered a German spy hiding in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. During the arrest process, the German spy stubbornly resisted and killed several people. I went to capture his fighters, snatched a Bobosha submachine gun, tried to rush into Lunev's office, and was beaten to death by me."

  Asiya heard Sokov downplaying the matter, she couldn't help frowning, she said nervously: "Misha, why don't we go to the hospital now and check if you are injured?"

"It's okay, I'm fine, I don't need to go to the hospital." After Sokov finished speaking, seeing Asiya pouted, as if she was angry with himself, he quickly comforted her and said, "Is there any injury on my body? Don't you have any idea?"

   "Misha, you are so reckless." Assia waited for Sokov to finish speaking, and scolded him, "You are a general now, how can you take risks so easily?"

   "Assia, it's not that I'm going to take risks, but self-defense." Sokov said: "If I didn't shoot at the opponent, when he rushed into the room, I would be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered."

   "Comrade General," Koshkin asked curiously after hearing this, "Why did that man rush into the deputy minister's office?"

"The reason is very simple." Sokov explained: "The man knew that he had been exposed, and there was no possibility of escape even if he was arrested, so he could only take the risk and storm Lunev's office. Once he rushed into the office, he could hold Lunev hostage." Nev was taken as a hostage. Even if he couldn’t take hostages, he could still shoot Lunev to death, causing huge losses to your Ministry of Internal Affairs.”

  Hearing this, Koshkin couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. If Sokov hadn't shot in time, he would have killed the captain. If the captain really hijacked Lunev, things would be difficult. Fortunately, Sokov was present at the time and killed the captain in time, averting a catastrophe.

   "Comrade General," Koshkin was full of gratitude to Sokov, thinking that Sokov saved Lunev, which meant he had saved his own future. He asked respectfully, "Where shall we go next?"

"It goes without saying, I must be going home." Sokov turned his head to look at Asiya, and said tenderly: "Asiya, I haven't eaten anything today, I will go back later and help me cook , okay?"

"Okay, Misha." Asiya, who was just holding Sokov's arm, simply leaned her head on Sokov's shoulder, "Not only will I cook for you today, but I will cook for you for the rest of my life in the future." meal."
