Chapter 1901: search team

  Chapter 1901 Search Team

Sokov did not immediately answer Ponejielin's question, but turned his gaze to Aku, and said: "Lieutenant Colonel Ponejielin, you can only ask this Comrade Aku, he was the last to see you." to your subordinates."

Eager to know the news of his subordinates, Bonegelin hurriedly stepped forward, came to Aku, and asked respectfully: "Comrade Aku, can you tell me where my reconnaissance staff officer is now? "

  Although Sokov introduced Aku to Ponegerin, he forgot to tell Aku who Ponegerin was. Therefore, Aku looked at Sokov with some embarrassment, wanting to hear what the other party meant, whether to tell the truth to the lieutenant colonel in front of him.

Seeing Aku's doubts, Sokov hurriedly explained to him: "Comrade Aku, I forgot to introduce you to this commander just now. This is Lieutenant Colonel Ponejielin, commander of the 41st Guards Division. War When the outbreak first broke out, he was the commander of the 12th Army, and the reconnaissance staff officer you mentioned was his subordinate."

After figuring out the identity of Ponejielin, Aku immediately stood in awe. He straightened his body and reported to the other party: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, Corporal Aku is reporting to you. The last time I was in the defense fortification area in Vinnitsa I saw him..." He recounted in detail what he had just said to Sokov.

   Knowing that the reconnaissance staff officer had died, Ponegerin seemed to lose all his strength. He slumped on a chair powerlessly, staring blankly at the wall in front of him.

Sokov raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder twice, comforting him and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Ponejielin, since it is a war, there must be sacrifices. After the war is over, we will send people to look for him." remains, and a proper burial..."

Ponejelin, who had no focus in his eyes, sat up straight again when he heard what Sokov said, and he offered to ask Sokov: "Comrade Commander, since I know that the reconnaissance staff officer died in Vinny I wonder if it is possible to send someone to find his remains now and have him properly buried?"

"Lieutenant Colonel Ponegerin," Sokov understood Pornegerin's mood, but considering that Vinnytsar is still in the hands of the Germans, he said tactfully: "I understand your mood, but the time is right now. Not yet mature. You know, the Germans are still occupying Vinnytsia, and if someone is sent to find the remains of the reconnaissance staff officer, it may be dangerous."

"Comrade Commander," Ponejielin stood up and said to Sokov with a serious expression, "I think the search for the remains should be done as soon as possible. If you have to wait until the end of the war to search for the remains, I'm worried." If there is something good or bad about the insider, I am afraid we will never find the remains of the hero."

When Ponegerin said this, he turned his gaze to Aku intentionally, telling Sokov in a disguised form: "If we don't find the remains of the reconnaissance staff officer as soon as possible, once something happens to this insider, it is possible that he will never be seen again." No remains were found."

  Sokov stared at Ponejielin, thinking in his heart whether he should agree to the other party's proposal and send people to the Vinnytsia area to find the remains of the staff officer.

"Comrade Commander," Ponegerin felt a little anxious when he saw that Sokov had been silent for a long time, and he couldn't guess what the other party was thinking: "I beg you, send a small team as soon as possible to find the reconnaissance staff officer of his remains, and properly settled him."

"Okay." Seeing Pornegerin's resolute attitude, Sokov nodded and agreed, "I will send people to find the remains of the reconnaissance staff. If possible, bring them back." Find a cemetery for burial; if you can’t bring it back, bury it there first and make a mark, and it’s not too late to move the grave after the war is over.”

"Thank you, Comrade Commander, thank you so much." Although Ponejielin had long forgotten the name of the reconnaissance staff officer, he still expressed his gratitude to Sukov on behalf of his opponent: "On behalf of the sacrificed reconnaissance staff officer, My sincere thanks to you!"

  Now that he has decided to send people to the Vinnitsa area to search for the remains of the deceased reconnaissance staff officer, Sokov began to issue orders: "Lieutenant Koshkin!"

   "Here!" Lieutenant Koshkin replied, but he was muttering to himself: "I won't let me lead the team to search for the remains, right? In that case, you won't have reliable people to protect you."

But Sokov's next order was beyond his expectation: "You immediately draw one of the most elite squad from your guard company, and then hand it over to Second Lieutenant Herus. He will lead the guard squad and **** Comrade Aku went to find the remains of the unknown hero who died."

"I understand, Comrade Commander." After Koshkin agreed, he turned to Kruss and said, "Comrade Second Lieutenant, I will gather the entire company later, and you will pick people yourself, and pick whoever you like. I will always let you go."

  When Koshkin left with Kruss and Aku, Sokov asked Ponedelin: "General Ponedelin, the Germans on the right bank of the Transnistria, is there any new movement?"

   "No." Pornejelin shook his head and said, "At least so far, there is no movement at all. I guess they won't launch an attack before dawn."

   "Oh?!" Sokov said with some surprise: "Are you so sure?"

"Yes." Pornegerin nodded and said, "From all indications, the Germans have not noticed the adjustment of our troop deployment, and thought that the defenders on the left bank lacked heavy weapons such as artillery and tanks. They I will definitely sleep peacefully, recharge my batteries, and launch an attack on our defense zone tomorrow morning."

  After chatting with Sokov for a while, Ponejielin and Sokov saw that the other side looked tired, so he took the initiative to get up and leave: "Comrade Commander, it's getting late, you should go to rest early, and you have to command operations tomorrow."

   Unexpectedly, after seeing off Pornegerin, Sokov was just lying on the bed when he heard someone knock on the door. He didn't even have time to put on his boots, so he walked quickly to the door and opened the door with his hand.

   Standing outside the door was Koshkin. When he saw Sokov appearing, he straightened up and reported, "Comrade Commander, the search team for Vinnytsia is ready and ready to go."

   "How many people are on the search team?"

   "Each Lieutenant Herus and Aku, there are 12 people in total."

   "What transportation is prepared for them?"

   Koshkin was taken aback, and then replied: "No, no means of transportation has been prepared for them. They plan to spend two to three days on foot to Vinnitsa."

"Nonsense, nonsense." As soon as Koshkin finished speaking, Sokov scolded him: "It is almost 140 kilometers from here to Vinnytsia. If you let them march on foot, it will take three days at the fastest. Time. If the remains of the reconnaissance staff officer are found, how can they be brought back?"

   "Comrade Commander, what do you think should be done?"

   "Aren't there 12 of them?" Sokov said, "Just prepare 4 three-wheeled motorcycles for them. This will not only increase their marching speed, but also facilitate bringing them back after finding the remains of the reconnaissance staff."

   "Okay, Comrade Commander." Koshkin quickly replied, "I'll go and prepare transportation for them."
