Chapter 2415:

Seeing that Commander Zeng was drunk, Sokov quickly stood up, called Bezikov, and ordered him: "Comrade Major, Commander Zeng is drunk. Go and prepare a room for him and let him stay in it." Rest. In addition, go find the military doctor and check him. Make sure he is not suffering from alcohol poisoning." Sokov arranged for the military doctor to check Commander Zeng. It was not superfluous. Vodka is made from grains or potatoes. , it is distilled to make alcohol with a temperature of up to 95 degrees, and then diluted with distilled water to 40 to 60 degrees. If you drink 12 glasses of this wine in one go, which is equivalent to four kilograms, you will easily develop symptoms of alcohol poisoning.

Bezikov asked someone to help Commander Zeng go outside, but Political Commissar Tang was worried and followed him out. Lu Jin said to him from behind: "Commissar Tang, after you have settled Comrade Zeng, please ask Come back, we have another show next.”

Although Political Commissar Tang didn’t know what program Lu Jin was talking about, he still agreed out of politeness: “Okay, Comrade Lieutenant General, I will come back as soon as I settle down with Lao Zeng.”

After Political Commissar Tang and others left, Sokov curiously asked Lu Jin: "Comrade Deputy Commander, what other programs are coming next?"

“Since it’s a party, it can’t just be a simple meal. You can also dance, listen to music and so on.”

"But we didn't prepare these in advance." Sokov said with some embarrassment: "Even if we need to find some female soldiers, it won't be possible in a short while."

Unexpectedly, Lu Jin laughed after hearing this: "Misha, I just left to arrange this matter. Didn't I say that I will arrange everything tonight. You agreed to this, You can’t go back on your word.”

"No, no." Sokov thought that he had many things to say to Commander Zeng and Political Commissar Tang today. Unexpectedly, Commander Zeng kept drinking in order to obtain more warehouses, leaving himself no chance to speak. If there really was a dance to be organized after the banquet, I would have enough time to talk to Political Commissar Tang. Thinking of this, Sokov said smoothly: "Comrade Deputy Commander, then I will do as you say."

Soon, Political Commissar Tang returned to the banquet hall.

"Commissar Tang," Sokov said to Commissar Tang, "after the banquet is over, we will organize a dance outside. I hope you can stay and participate."

Hearing Sokov said that there was going to be a dance, Political Commissar Tang was very surprised. He waved his hands and said, "I can't dance, so forget it."

"This is a dance specially held to entertain you." Lu Jin said with a smile beside him: "I hope you won't refuse. In fact, if Commander Zeng hadn't been drunk, we would have invited him to attend. Since he is already drunk. , then let you represent it.”

Hearing what Lu Jin said, Political Commissar Tang knew that it was hard to refuse such hospitality, so he could only reluctantly agree: "Okay, I'll stay and attend this dance."

 An officer walked in from outside, walked to Lu Jin's side, and whispered a few words. After Lu Jin nodded slightly, he then said to everyone: "Comrade commanders, the dance scene outside is ready, we can go out to dance."

Sokov stood up and pushed Lu Jin's wheelchair out. At the same time, he called to Political Commissar Tang: "Commissar Tang, the dance is about to begin. Come with us."

Arriving at the dance hall, Sokov was surprised to find that a lot of people had gathered. In addition to some school-level officers, there were also a lot of female soldiers, who looked like communication corps or medical corps.

 Seeing Sokov and others appear, someone shouted: "Comrade Commander is here!"

The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone stood straight and saluted Sokov and others.

Lu Jin turned to the officer who reported the news and whispered: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, you can start."

The officer nodded and quickly ran to the band next to him, signaling that they could start playing.

Music started playing, but no one entered the dance floor in the middle.

When Sokov was feeling strange, Lukin said to him: "Misha, you are the highest military officer here, and you have to dance the first dance."

After hearing this, Sokov couldn't help being stunned. He didn't expect that the other party actually wanted to dance the first dance by himself. He couldn't help but said with some embarrassment: "Comrade Deputy Commander, you didn't even say hello to me in advance for such an important matter. Let me ask you." I'm not prepared at all. What's more, I don't have a dance partner yet."

“Don’t worry, I’ve made arrangements for you a long time ago.” Lu Jin said, waving not far away.

Soon, a female soldier wearing a lieutenant uniform walked out of the crowd. After Sokov saw the person clearly, he was shocked: "Sonia, is it you?"

He remembered that there was an outbreak of typhoid fever in an army not long ago. Sonia and her medical team rushed over to provide support. He still had no idea when she came back.

Sonia came to Sokov and asked with a smile: "Misha, would I be honored to ask you to dance the first dance?"

Faced with the expectant gazes from all around, Sokov naturally couldn't say not to dance, so he could only reluctantly nodded and replied bravely: "Okay!" After saying that, he took Sonia's hand and walked onto the dance floor. Everyone began to dance in their eyes.

 When political commissar Tang saw Sonia, he had a look of astonishment on his face. After he waited for Sokov and Sonia to enter the dance floor, he asked Lukin tentatively: "Comrade Lieutenant General, how come the female soldier who invited General Sokov to dance looks like a Chinese?"

"Political Commissar Tang, you read that right, that female soldier is Chinese." Lu Jin knew a little about Sonia's background. Seeing that Political Commissar Tang was interested in her, he took the initiative and said, "She is an anti-Union fighter. , arrived in the Soviet Union in 1940 and stayed in the military hospital in Khabarovsk as a nurse."

“Oh oh oh, it turns out she is an Anti-Japanese War fighter.” After learning the other party’s true identity, Political Commissar Tang asked tentatively: “I wonder what her Chinese name is?”

Lu Jin did not answer the question immediately, but turned to look at Yakov next to him. He knew that the other party had dated Sonia for a period of time and should know Sonia's situation, so he asked Yakov: "Staff Comrade Chang, do you know what Sonia’s Chinese name is?”

"I don't know." Yakov, who was in a bad mood, answered simply: "She never told me."

"Political Commissar Tang." Seeing that Yakov didn't know Sonia's Chinese name, Lu Jin could only apologize to Political Commissar Tang: "Comrade Chief of Staff doesn't know either. It seems that I can only ask the commander later. See Does he know?" "Comrade Lieutenant General." Political Commissar Tang said to Lu Jin: "I saw that the appearance of this female soldier was somewhat similar to that of one of my fallen comrades, so I asked curiously. If you really don't know her Forget about his name, maybe he just looks similar."

At this time, Sokov, who was dancing with Sonia on the dance floor, asked curiously: "Sonia, when did you come back?"

“I’ve been back for a few days.” Sonia deliberately asked Sokov in a teasing tone: “Are you worried that I carry the typhoid virus and infect you?”

"Don't be afraid!" Sokov replied carelessly: "Even if I am infected with typhoid fever, I can be cured with the skills of military doctors in field hospitals." After a few words of ridicule, Sokov got back to his business, "Typhoid fever has not caused anyone to die. Bar?"

Sonia was silent for a moment, and then replied: "About a dozen soldiers died because their condition was serious and rescue was ineffective. The rest of the infected soldiers are getting better after our treatment."

 “Oh oh oh,” Sokov nodded and said, “That’s good, that’s good.”

"Hey, the two of us are dancing, please don't say such spoiling things, okay?" Sonia glanced at Political Commissar Tang and the others who were standing by the dance floor. She felt that they were particularly blind in their gray military caps and khaki military uniforms, so she He asked curiously: "Who are those people wearing gray military caps?"

"It's the Eighth Route Army that came from Guannei, and now it's renamed the Northeast People's Autonomous Army." After Sokov said this, he suddenly remembered that Sonia, who was dancing with him, was a member of the Anti-Alliance, and quickly added: "They are you Comrade, please go say hello later."

“Well, okay.” Regarding Sokov’s suggestion, Sonia only hesitated for a moment and then readily agreed: “I’ll go see them later.”

 At the end of the song, Sokov and Sonia walked out of the dance floor holding hands and came to Lukin and others.

"Commissar Tang, let me introduce you," Sokov said to Commissar Tang with a smile: "This Sonia is a female fighter of the Anti-Japanese Alliance and can be considered your comrade. Sonia, this is the Shenyang Garrison Headquarters Tang political commissar.”

Sonia was stunned after hearing this, and then asked: "When did Fengtian change its name to Shenyang? Also, doesn't the garrison headquarters belong to the Soviet army? How could a Chinese hold such an important position as political commissar?"

"Fengtian has been renamed Shenyang, and it should be officially announced in a few days. As for the garrison headquarters," Sokov said: "From now on, there will be two, one is from our army, and the garrison commander is General Kortun. ; and the other one was formed by the Northeast People's Autonomous Army, under the jurisdiction of Commander Zeng and the Tang political commissar, and was responsible for maintaining order and security in the city."

"Hello, Political Commissar Tang." Seeing her compatriots, Sonia was particularly excited: "I heard a few days ago that our army came to Fengtian, no, it was Shenyang. She also said that she would have a chance to visit your place. , I didn’t expect to meet you today.”

Unexpectedly, when Political Commissar Tang shook hands with Sonia, he kept staring at each other and murmured: "It's so similar!"

Sokov could understand what Political Commissar Tang said, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart, does this Sonia look like an old friend of Political Commissar Tang? And Sonia was equally puzzled: "Commissar Tang, you said we look too much like each other. Who do you think I look like?"

Hearing what Sonia said, Political Commissar Tang quickly stabilized his emotions, and then asked cautiously: "This lesbian, I want to ask, what is your Chinese name?"

“Si Shuyun.” After Sonia said her name, she asked Political Commissar Tang with a smile: “Commissar Tang, is my surname very rare?”

Commissar Tang had a shocked expression on his face when he heard Sonia say her Chinese name. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly and he asked: "Do you know someone named Si Shufen?"

Sonia was shocked by the name political commissar Tang said. She asked with shock on her face: "Do you know my sister?"

Sokov couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, secretly thinking that this was too bloody, Sonia actually met someone here who knew her sister. He stared at Political Commissar Tang intently, trying to figure out what was going on between him and Sonia's sister?

At this time, new dance music started playing, and Yakov walked up to Sonia and pulled her to the dance floor without any explanation. Sonia could not break free from his hand and could only follow him to the dance floor, but she still did not forget to turn back to Political Commissar Tang and said: "Commissar Tang, after you finish dancing this song, you can give me an answer."

Seeing Political Commissar Tang looking at Sonia dancing on the dance floor, Sokov said to him: "Commissar Tang, I have something to tell you. Let's find a place to talk."

Seeing that Sokov had something to say to him, Political Commissar Tang followed Sokov to a secluded place. After the two parties sat down, Political Commissar Tang made a gesture of invitation to Sokov: "Comrade General, what can I do for you?" , please tell me."

Sokov nodded, and then said: "I just suggested to Commander Zeng that it would be best to form an artillery unit, but he doesn't seem to take it seriously..."

"Comrade General," political commissar Tang heard what Sokov said and was worried that the other party would have any bad thoughts in his mind. He quickly explained to him: "I'm really sorry. Just now, Old Zeng was obsessed with drinking two more glasses of wine. I want more. Two warehouses to ensure that our army has sufficient weapons, ammunition and military supplies. To be honest, our army is too poor. It can only be replaced with unified Japanese equipment after leaving the customs. Before that, many soldiers I don’t even have a decent weapon in my hand.”

"Commissar Tang," Sokov said: "What I want to tell you is that to form a huge artillery force, it is not enough to rely solely on the 150 artillery pieces and mortars of various calibers provided to you. You still have to find a way to get more artillery."

Hearing what Sokov said, Political Commissar Tang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he quickly asked: "Comrade General, I don't know where there are artillery in the warehouse, can you provide it to us?"

"Commissar Tang, I think you misunderstood me." Sokov said to Commissar Tang: "I don't know where in the warehouse there are the artillery you need. I only know one thing, if you want to have enough artillery, You have to make it yourself, so that you can have as many artillery pieces as you want."

Political Commissar Tang looked at Sokov and said with a confused expression: "Comrade General, I don't understand what you mean. You know, we don't have a factory to build artillery at all, not even the equipment. How can we make what we need?" Where’s the artillery?”

Sokov smiled slightly and continued: "That's why I called you aside to have a private chat."
