Chapter 611: supplies

  Chapter 611 Supplies

"There is still a distance of more than ten kilometers from here to your division headquarters, and it will take a lot of time to go back and forth." The German chief of staff took the initiative to say to Bauer: "If the Russians launch an attack at this time, stick to their positions. Some troops may run out of ammunition. We happen to have extra ammunition, so you can send them two carts of ammunition first, and it won’t be too late to return them to us when the ammunition cart from your division headquarters arrives.”

"The chief of staff is right." Regarding his chief of staff's proposal, the head of the German army agreed, and he also said to Bauer: "In order to prevent our soldiers from running out of ammunition and food, you should first get them from us." Two carts of ammunition and one cart of supplies have passed, and the troops holding the position will be replenished first."

  Seeing that the head of the regiment also agreed with his opinion, the chief of staff walked to the door of the tent without waiting for the other party to speak, and shouted to the outside: "Quartermaster, quartermaster!"

   Following the shout, a German second lieutenant appeared at the door of the tent, straightened his body and asked the chief of staff: "Your Excellency, what instructions do you have?"

"As far as we know, in the north of the village, there is a position held by our army, and now they are facing a situation of running out of ammunition and food." The chief of staff pointed to Bauer who was standing not far away, and said to the quartermaster : "You immediately prepare two ammunition vehicles and a truck loaded with supplies, and let them follow this corporal to the northern position."

Seeing that both the regimental commander and the chief of staff were deceived by his lies, Bauer became more courageous, and he quickly added: "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, the radio station in the battalion was broken during the battle, and we cannot communicate with the division. Department and regimental headquarters. If you have a spare station here, can you give them one?"

Knowing that the radio station of the friendly army was damaged, the chief of staff of the German army said generously: "How can one station be enough? What if it breaks again? I made a mistake. I will give them two stations directly. Quartermaster, prepare two more stations, remember Hold on, prepare a few more batteries."

  With the cooperation of the German regiment commander and the chief of staff, the quartermaster quickly prepared ammunition and supplies for the "friendly troops". After doing all this, he came to the tent and reported to the head: "Your Excellency, everything is ready and ready to go."

  According to the original plan, Bauer took the three trucks to the northern position. But after listening to the quartermaster's report, the commander of the German army temporarily changed his mind: "Quartermaster, follow along."

  The quartermaster did not expect that the head of the regiment would suddenly issue such an order, and he couldn't help showing a surprised expression on his face: "What, I will follow?"

"Yes, you follow along." The commander of the German army had a good starting point. He was worried that there was still something missing in the northern position, so he ordered his quartermaster to follow to understand the situation so that he could make targeted supplements. : "Look at what our friendly forces still lack. As long as we have what we have, we can supplement them."

  After the quartermaster figured out the intention of the regiment leader, he quickly and loudly agreed. Then he turned around and shook his head at Bauer, and said, "Corporal, let's go, please act as our guide in front."

  Bauer didn't expect that the quartermaster would lead the team this time, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He was worried that the quartermaster would find that the position had been occupied by the Russians before he got close to the position. Seeing the quartermaster asking him to lead the way at this time, he didn't dare to shirk, so he could only laugh and say, "Quartermaster, please! I'll lead the way for your vehicle in front."

  In order to ensure the safety of the supplies, four soldiers were assigned to **** the vehicles, two of whom sat in the driver's cab with the driver, and the other two sat on the piled high supplies. Seeing that Bauer was riding a two-wheeled motorcycle without a sidebar, the quartermaster used his authority to find a three-wheeled motorcycle with a sidebar for Bauer.

  When the convoy consisting of a motorcycle and three trucks headed north, Bauer's heart began to beat, and he found that the position had been occupied by the Russians just after a long distance. Now that so many people have passed by, can't they find that the positions are all Russians?

  The distance from the small village to the position is only a few kilometers. In less than ten minutes, Bauer could vaguely see the position ahead. He wondered secretly: If the quartermaster found out that the position was full of Russians, would he shoot himself? What would you do if you really wanted to shoot yourself? Should he jump off the car and run for his life, or fight him bravely?

The scouts deployed by Gurdiyev outside discovered the convoy heading towards the position, and hurriedly reported to Gurdiyev over the radio: "Comrade Commander, we have discovered a German convoy heading towards the position." Come to our position."

   "German convoy?!" Gurdiyev was startled into a cold sweat when he heard the scout's report, and asked quickly, "How many vehicles are there?"

"The convoy consists of a three-wheeled motorcycle and three trucks. The car is covered with canvas, so I can't see what it is, but according to my estimation, it should be all supplies." The scout described everything he saw through The microphone reported to Gurdiyev: "There are soldiers escorting the car, but they don't seem to realize that the position has been occupied by our army, and they are not in a fighting state."

"Don't shoot, let them come here." Gurdiyev realized that only three trucks and a small number of German soldiers had come, and his heart suddenly became more at ease. He was worried that the scouts would not be calm and took the initiative to attack the enemy. Shooting, he said: "You don't do anything, let us clean them up."

After finishing the conversation with the scout, Gurdiyev told Samoilov who was sitting aside: "Comrade Second Lieutenant, the scout reported that there is a convoy consisting of a motorcycle and three trucks heading towards We are here. The enemy in the car escorting the car did not enter the fighting state, which shows that they do not know that the position has been occupied by our army. Now you immediately take people to meet this convoy and seize the supplies above. "

Samoilov promised, walked out of the shelter, came to the trench, and said to the soldiers who had been waiting there: "Comrades, the enemy's convoy transporting supplies has come, and I was ordered to take you to seize these supplies. Remember , without my order, no one is allowed to speak, so as not to reveal their identity. Let's go!"

   A group of people left the trench and greeted the oncoming convoy. Bauer, who was driving at the front, saw a group of "German soldiers" coming out of the trench, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. He knew very well that all the Germans on the field had been killed. This group of "friendly soldiers" Where did it come from?

   Before he could figure it out, he saw a second lieutenant walking in the front, raised his right hand high, and at the same time shouted extremely majesticly: "Stop, stop the car!"

   At a distance of five or six meters from Samoilov, Ball stopped his motorcycle. As soon as the motorcycle stopped, the quartermaster jumped out of the sidecar and said to Samoilov: "Second lieutenant, I am the quartermaster of the 547th Regiment. I was ordered to deliver supplies to you. I don't know who will receive the supplies. what?"

   "Hello, Your Excellency, Quartermaster." Samoilov said to the quartermaster with a smile: "We are ordered to receive supplies. Please order your people to get off the car so that we can start unloading."

  How did the quartermaster know that the group of people in front of him were all disguised by the Soviet army, so he quickly turned around and shouted to the back: "Everyone is there, get out of the car and line up!"

  Seeing the German soldiers in the cab and carriage lined up next to the car, Samoilov winked at the soldiers beside him and growled, "Do it!"

  Following Samoilov's order, the soldiers standing beside him rushed forward with their guns in hand. Aim the muzzle of the black hole at the German soldiers who have not recovered. The sudden change confused everyone including Bauer, and the quartermaster said unconvinced: "Second Lieutenant, what are you doing, why are you pointing your gun at us?"

  Samoilov snorted coldly, and said in fluent German: "Your Excellency, Quartermaster, I am now officially telling you that you and your subordinates have been captured by the Soviet Red Army!"

   "What, you are Russians?!" The quartermaster was shocked when he heard Samoilov reveal his identity. He instinctively stretched his hands to his waist, ready to draw his gun and fight to the death. However, he moved fast, and Samoilov moved faster than him. Before the quartermaster drew out his pistol, the cold muzzle of the gun was already on his forehead.

Seeing that all the enemies had already been captured, Samoilov shook his head and ordered: "Take them all away!" When the soldiers heard his order, they immediately escorted the German soldiers with their hands up, towards the position. direction to go.

  The German soldiers escorting the car were taken away, but the three drivers remained in the car. The fighters opened the car door, pointed the driver at gunpoint, and ordered them to get out of the car immediately.

  Although the drivers could not understand Russian, they recognized that the weapons aimed at them could kill people, and hurriedly raised their hands and got out of the car. A driver was kicked by the soldier next to him because he moved too slowly, so he quickly shouted at the soldier.

  The soldiers didn't understand what the driver was shouting, but Samoilov understood. He heard the driver shouting "Comrade, don't get me wrong, it's my own."

Samoilov frowned, walked quickly to the driver, and said fiercely to him: "Who is your comrade, who is your own? Hitler is your comrade!" "

   "I'm an anti-Fahishi." The driver heard Samoilov scolding him clearly, and quickly defended himself, saying, "I'm an anti-Fahishi. Do you understand?"

  Bauer, who stood motionless by the side, quickly came out to smooth things over: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, he said he was an anti-Fasi Templeist, did you understand?"

   Don't look at Samoilov's German is quite fluent, but he still can't understand many words. At this moment, when Bauer explained to him again, he realized that he might have misunderstood, and quickly said with a dry smile: "Understood, he is an anti-Fasi templeist, I can see it at a glance." The soldier guarding the driver waved his hand and said, "He told our comrades not to point their guns at him."
