Chapter 2882 Return smoothly

The bald German captain, the second lieutenant and the corporal who were restrained, looked at the black muzzle around him, and could only accept his fate and give up the idea of ​​resistance.

After Olga and Lieutenant Zhukowen drove the captured German officers and soldiers to the same place, Sokov accidentally discovered that there were more than 90 people, almost twice as many as the number of people detected in advance.

In order to figure out what happened, Sokov asked the bald captain: "Mr. Captain, aren't there only more than fifty people in your transfer station, but why are there nearly a hundred people here?"

Hearing Sokov's question, the bald captain replied with a wry smile: "Mr. Officer, there are indeed only more than fifty people in the transfer station, and the extra drivers are transporting goods. They will drive vehicles filled with ammunition and supplies to the frontier positions of our army after dawn."

Sokov was secretly happy that if there were dozens of vehicles loaded with ammunition and supplies, they could save time in transporting supplies, and the troops could return to their defense zone before dawn.

Seeing Sokov's smile, Olga asked quickly: "Comrade Brigade Commander, what is this German talking about?"

"Comrade Captain, this German captain told me that there are more than 30 trucks loaded with supplies in the transfer station, ready to be transported to the front line after dawn."

"What should we do?" Olga said anxiously: "We must not let this batch of supplies be transported to the front line, otherwise it will pose a significant threat to our army."

"Don't worry, comrade Captain, these supplies are definitely not in the hands of the Germans." Sokov said this and called Zhu Kewen in front of him and told him: "Lieutenant Zhu Kewen, go and ask the prisoners and see who the car driver is."

"Car driver?" Zhu Kewen was stunned after hearing this and asked in confusion: "Comrade Brigade Commander, what are you doing when you find a German car driver?"

"Didn't you hear my conversation with the German captain just now?" Sokov said: "Since the supplies have been loaded and there are ready-made drivers, we will naturally ask them to help us transport the things back."

"I understand, I immediately found all the drivers."

When Zhu Kewen ran into the captives and shouted to ask the drivers to stand up, Olga asked Sokov for instructions: "Comrade Brigade Commander, since we have these more than 30 trucks of supplies, will we continue to carry the rest of the supplies?"

"Of course, of course we have to move." Sokov nodded and said in a positive tone: "If we want to stick to it, we need a large amount of ammunition and supplies. But now our superiors cannot replenish us for the time being, so we can only find a way to solve the replenishment problem by ourselves."

After a moment of pause, Sokov ordered Olga: "Captain, immediately organize your subordinates to bring the supplies from the transfer station onto the truck we brought."

"Comrade Brigade Commander," Olga reminded Sokov: "If the car is full, our soldiers will have no place to sit."

"You can disperse people. Originally, a car was about twenty people, but now it can be reduced to five to eight people." Sokov said this and suddenly thought of a key question: "Captain, on the way back to the defense zone, we may encounter the German patrol again, so you must make an appointment with your subordinates to prepare to eliminate the patrol teams you encounter along the way if necessary."

"Don't worry, comrade comrade commander." Olga glanced at the prisoners, and then asked tentatively: "My subordinates have all brought supplies, so who should take care of these prisoners?"

"The prisoners will be managed by Lieutenant Zhukowen and the soldiers of the guard platoon." Sokov waved his hand at Olga and urged: "It's getting late, move quickly. We must strive to leave the German occupied area before dawn."

Olga took his men to carry ammunition and supplies, and Sokov returned to the prisoner.

He walked to the German lieutenant, took out the silver cigarette box produced in Hanau, Germany, opened it, handed it to the other party, and said politely: "Come one!"

Seeing the cigarette box handed to him, the German lieutenant hesitated for a moment, but carefully took out a cigarette, thanked Sokov and put it in his mouth. When he reached out to touch the matches, Sokov had already handed the lit lighter to him and lit the cigarette for him.

After Sokov helped the German lieutenant light a cigarette, he turned to face the bald captain and the German corporal who led the way. After the two of them took the cigarettes, he also helped them light it.

"Mr. Officer!" Seeing Sokov taking the initiative to light a cigarette for him, the fear in the bald captain's heart dissipated a lot, he tried to ask: "You speak German well, I wonder where you learned it?"

"I have been to Germany and lived in Berlin for a while." Sokov said this, not to deceive the bald captain. In his previous life, he did go to Berlin after the war with the female translator Ajelina, and stayed there for a while. But his next words were no longer the truth: "I learned German in Berlin."

"Do you have any friends in Berlin?" asked the bald captain.

"If you are talking about German friends, there are a few." Sokov remembered the German captain Hosenfell who had helped Jews he rescued in Warsaw, and continued: "One of them, a friend named Hosenfell, is a SS officer and is now stationed in Warsaw."

"Mr. Officer," saw Sokov chatting with the bald captain, the German lieutenant came over and asked tentatively: "Have you been to Warsaw?"

"I've been to." Sokov nodded and said, "I've been to many cities in Europe. In addition to Berlin and Warsaw, I've also been to Budapest, the capital of Hungary, and Vienna, the capital of Austria."

Hearing Sokov say this, the German lieutenant said with emotion: "Mr. Officer, I really didn't expect that you have been to so many places at a young age."

When Sokov was chatting with two German officers, he kept glancing at the soldiers loading the goods from the corner of his eyes, thinking about how much time it would take to bring his truck specifically.

Half an hour later, Olga came over and reported: "Comrade Brigade Commander, our truck is full and ready to go."

"Let the soldiers get in the car, we must leave here as soon as possible." After Sokov gave Olga orders, he asked again: "Have you agreed to the soldiers for the contact signal?"

"The agreement is made." Olga then asked for instructions: "How should the convoy be organized? Please instruct!"

"Of course, our car drove the road in the front, then two German drivers, and then another one behind our car, and so on." Sokov said to Olga: "If you and I are in the front cab, we can discover what happens right away."

Before Olga left, he accidentally glanced at the group of prisoners, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he still went straight to command the troops to board the bus.

After the convoy was organized, Sokov and Orl added the cab of the front car. After closing the door, Sokov leaned out and shouted, "Lieutenant Zhu Kewen!"

Hearing Sokov's shout, Second Lieutenant Zhu Kowen immediately came to the car, looked up at Sokov and asked for instructions, "Comrade Brigade Commander, what instructions do you have?"

"Comrade Lieutenant, find me two submachine guns, and I and Olgao Lieutenant each."

Zhu Kewen executed Sokov's orders very simply, and soon found two submachine guns and handed them in through the window.

Sokov took the submachine gun, handed it to Olga, and said, "Captain, take the gun, maybe we will fight the enemy on the road."

After Zhu Kewen handed the gun to Sokov, he did not leave, but asked tentatively: "Comrade Brigade Commander, what should we do with these German prisoners?"

"Comrade Lieutenant, I'll leave them to you." Sokov looked down at Zhu Kewen standing next to the car: "You should know what to do, right?"

When the convoy left the transfer station, Olga, who was sitting next to Sokov, asked curiously: "Comrade Brigade Commander, what are you going to deal with those prisoners?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of submachine gun shooting came from the direction of the transfer station.

Hearing the gunshots coming from behind, Sokov couldn't help but close his eyes. He remembered a TV series "Brothers Company" that he had watched later. When an American paratrooper was rushing, he saw a captured German prisoner on the roadside, so he went over to chat with one of them for a few words, and talked very well with each other. When he continued to rush, he passed by a companion. The companion came to the middle of the German prisoners, took out the cigarettes he carried, distributed them to the prisoners, and took the initiative to light cigarettes for them. But the next moment, the paratrooper who walked away heard dense gunshots coming from behind. It should be his companions and comrades in charge of prisoners who were executing the captured German prisoners.

This scene is exactly the same as the TV series.

After hearing the gunshots, Olga couldn't help but tremble. He turned his head and looked at Sokov, and asked in shock: "Comrade Brigade Commander, have you killed all the prisoners?"

"Uncle Olga, how can we be behind enemy lines and not be able to take so many prisoners?" Sokov turned to Olga and said, "If we let these prisoners go, there will definitely be people coming to ask for help nearby. If the nearby Germans get news and come to surround us, it is still unknown whether our convoy can return to our military defense zone safely. Therefore, in order to eliminate the unstable factors, it is undoubtedly the best choice to deal with German prisoners in this way."

After listening to Sokov's explanation, Olga was silent. He felt that fighting face to face with the enemy on the battlefield and trying every means to eliminate the enemy was a soldier's duty. However, it was unacceptable for him to massacre a group of prisoners who put down their weapons. However, he could not deny that under the current circumstances, in order not to expose his target, it seemed understandable that in order to silence all the German prisoners in the transfer station.

After a while of silence, Olga asked tentatively: "Comrade Brigade Commander, what about those German drivers? What are you going to deal with when we arrive at our destination?"

Sokov knew very well what Olga was worried about, so he said carelessly: "Don't worry, comrade Captain, I'm not an executioner. Execution of German prisoners of war in the transfer station was a last resort. As for these German drivers who helped us transport supplies, after arriving at the destination, I will arrange for people to send them to the prisoner-of-war camp. For them, the war has ended so far."

Originally, Sokov thought that on the way back to his defense zone, he might encounter Lieutenant Oliver's patrol again, and even asked Olga to make a contact signal for the soldiers in advance, preparing to annihilate them all when they encountered the patrol. Unexpectedly, the journey was safe and sound, and there were still no traces of the enemy in the second camp's position.

"Comrade Brigade Commander." Seeing that the second battalion's position was right in front, Olga hurriedly said to Sokov: "I see that the convoy will stop temporarily. After contacting the battalion commander, it will not be too late to continue moving forward, so as not to conflict with the sentries on duty on the position."

Sokov felt it was very correct to Olga's reminder. After ordering the driver to stop, he turned around and opened the small window glass behind him and rushed to the radio operator sitting in the carriage and said, "The radio operator, immediately call the second battalion and said that our convoy had arrived in front of their positions and asked them to send someone to greet him."

The radio operator agreed and began to call the Second Battalion.

Not long after, the radio operator excitedly reported to Sokov: "Comrade Brigade Commander, you have contacted the Second Battalion."

Sokov took the headphones and the sender from the radio operator and began to say, "Second Battalion Commander, I am Sokov. Our convoy has arrived in front of your battalion's position and immediately send someone to open a passage for us in the minefield. We must prepare to enter the defense zone."

"Comrade Brigade Commander, I will send someone to open the road immediately." Captain Alexa, the second battalion commander, said: "At most a quarter of an hour, you can pass."

After finishing the call with the second battalion commander, Sokov said to Olga again: "Comrade Captain, send a signal to the back to make the soldiers who monitor the German drivers be vigilant so that they will not be anxious and do things that we might not expect."

"An unexpected thing?" Olga asked in confusion after hearing this: "Comrade Brigade Commander, I don't understand what you mean."

"Captain, our car is full of ammunition and supplies." Seeing that Olga did not understand, Sokov explained to him: "If the German driver was passing through the minefield, he probably drove the car into a mined position. Once the ammunition on the car exploded, the entire convoy would probably suffer huge losses."

Olga made up for the scene of the ammunition truck explosion, and couldn't help but tremble all over. Then he nodded and said, "Okay, comrade brigade commander, I will immediately send a signal to the back to let the soldiers sitting in the cab monitor the German drivers be alert to avoid the enemy from doing anything bad."

Sokov also specifically emphasized: "Tell the soldiers that once they are found, they are attempted to drive the vehicle to the mine-built area, and allow them to decisively shoot the driver."

The passage to return to the second battalion position was opened, and the convoy passed through the minefield in an orderly manner under the guidance of the second battalion soldiers.

Although some German drivers had the idea of ​​driving into the minefield, they saw the black muzzle pointing toward them, so they could only put away their little thoughts, obediently followed the vehicle in front, and slowly entered the Second Battalion Defense Zone along the passage.

The second battalion commander Alexa, who had been waiting here for a long time, ran over to salute Sokov: "Comrade Brigade Commander, do I need me to arrange manpower and unload all the supplies?"
