Grande could not help but twitch when he heard what Sokov said, his eyes twitched for a moment, trying to say something, but in the end he still held it back.

After all, his false identity was discovered in such a short time, which was entirely his own fault. He thought that the Russians in the church didn't understand German, and planned to take advantage of the opportunity of being a translator to find out the identities of the German officers and soldiers in front of him and see if there was a chance to rescue them. However, he did not expect that this was just a trap set by the Russians for themselves, but he jumped in stupidly.

Sokov looked at Grande and asked, "Tell me what your name is, what is the task of coming here?" In order to make everyone around him understand his conversation with Grande, Sokov spoke Russian rather than German.

Grande snorted coldly and did not answer Sokov's question.

Sokov didn't bother him, and turned to Zhu Kewen and said, "Comrade Lieutenant, you are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and have more experience in interrogation, so I will hand over this German to you."

Zhu Kewen grinned and said, "Don't worry, Comrade Brigade Commander, no matter how strict he is, I can let him confess honestly." As he said that, he asked Zubu and Chursin to take Grande aside for interrogation.

Seeing the fake Soviet captain being taken away, Polytic asked Sokov with some concern: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, do you need me to send someone to help them?"

"No." Sokov shook his head: "The three of them are enough."

Polytic turned his head to the scout who brought Grande back, and asked with a stern face: "Comrade Sergeant, how could you bring back a German who pretended to be our army?"

The scout raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied nervously: "Comrade Commander, my subordinates and I saw him running away in the forest. The German soldiers were still shooting behind him. They thought he was his own, so they shot and knocked back the Germans who were chasing him and rescued him. I really don't know that he was a German fake."

"Comrade Commander," as soon as the scouts finished speaking, Haranchuk next to him continued: "Maybe the enemy found that our scouts were operating nearby, so they had such a conspiracy to find the location of our command."

After hearing Haranchuk's words, Polytic did not immediately express his opinion, but turned to look at Sokov and asked politely: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, what do you think about this?"

Sokov thought to himself that if the Germans really discovered the existence of the scouts, they had such a bitter plan, which means they had a backup plan and they had to be careful. Thinking of this, he looked up at Polytic and said with a serious expression: "Comrade Colonel, if the Germans sent such an agent, it was to find the location of your command, which means that they might have a large force nearby and can attack you at any time. Therefore, you must be prepared to fight so that you will not be caught off guard by the enemy."

"Lt. Colonel, what you said makes sense." Polytic nodded, and then ordered Halanchuk: "Hallanchuk, go back to the troops immediately and issue a battle alarm to the commanders and fighters, so that everyone can be prepared for battle so that they will not be caught off guard by the enemy."

Haranchuk stood up and said, "I'll go back now."

After Haranchuk left, Polytic again mentioned the old story: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, do you have any good ways to bring this army back to the east defense zone as completely as possible?"

"It's not easy to deal with, comrade Colonel." Sokov said with a bitter face: "On the way here, we passed 22 German-controlled areas, including 18 checkpoints and four defensive positions. The checkpoints are easy to deal with. There are only one platoon and only one squad in it. Just one charge can occupy it. The most troublesome thing is the German defensive position, and the four positions are equal to four lines of defense. In the absence of heavy weapons and severely insufficient ammunition, it is even more difficult to break through the enemy's defense line than climbing to the sky."

"If you stay, you will definitely be annihilated by the enemy. But if you want to leave, you will not be able to break through the enemy's defense." Politic took off the military cap on his head, scratched the back of his head and said in embarrassment: "We are really unable to advance and retreat now. Can't we really get rid of the danger of annihilation?"

"Comrade Colonel." Sokov once again looked away from the map, looked up at Polytic, and asked solemnly: "I think your subordinates must be more than Haranchuk. Did the rest of them give you any advice?"

"Of course some people have made suggestions to me," Polytic replied, "It is recommended that I break the troops into pieces, spread them to different places, and fight guerrillas with the Germans."

After hearing this, Sokov sneered: "Comrade Colonel, if the problem of ammunition and supplies of the troops cannot be solved, even if the dispersion is to fight guerrillas, the final outcome will probably not be very good. After all, your 4,000-man army will be dispersed to fight guerrillas, and the number of people will increase several times. At that time, the soldiers have no bullets in their guns and they will not be full. How can they attack the enemy?"

"Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, you are right. I thought so at that time, so I directly denied this proposal." Politic said: "Then I asked the comrades of the guerrillas to get the batteries needed by the radio station and sent telegrams to the outside world, hoping to get assistance."

Sokov didn't know how to deal with the other party, so he could only choose to remain silent.

After a while, Polytic asked Sokov tentatively: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, I have an idea, do you think it's OK?"

"What's the idea?"

"Can we ask our superiors to implement airdrop supplies?" Polytic said excitedly: "As long as we can get a batch of ammunition and supplies, we can persist behind enemy lines for a longer time."

"Do you think it's possible?" Sokov asked with a wry smile: "Don't you know that our transport plane will not only be hit by German air defense artillery during flight, but also may be intercepted by German fighter jets. After they arrive at their destination, the transport plane formation will probably lose most of it. Such a crazy plan will not be agreed to."

Sokov's words were not alarmist. For the sake of a few thousand troops, he dispatched a fleet of transport aircraft to more than 200 kilometers behind enemy lines and implemented airdrop supplies for them. I am afraid no superior commander would agree to such a crazy plan.

Seeing Politic frowning, he said tactfully: "Comrade Colonel, if you want to get rid of your current predicament, you can only rely on your existing strength."

After hearing Sokov said this, Polytic pursed his lips and asked, "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, what would you do if you were the supreme commander of this army?"

Sokov took himself into the role of division commander and began to consider what would he do if the troops he commanded were in the current situation.

Seeing Sokov begin to ponder, Polytic did not interrupt him, but got up and walked to the place where the samovar was placed, poured a cup of hot tea, and placed it in front of Sokov.

"Comrade Brigade Commander!" When Sokov picked up the hot tea placed in front of him and thanked Polytic, he heard the voice of Lieutenant Zhu Kewen coming from behind.

Sokov turned his head and saw that Zhu Kewen and Sergeant Zub were walking towards him quickly. Based on the expressions on their faces, he realized that the German named Grande or some other name must have confessed. He quickly put down the teacup in his hand and asked urgently: "How is it, has he confessed?"

"Yes, comrade comrade commander." Zhu Kewen nodded vigorously and said in a positive tone: "He has done everything."

When Polytic heard Zhu Kewen say this, his face showed a shocked expression: "Have he confessed so quickly?"

Zhu Kewen showed a proud expression on his face: "Comrade Colonel, when it comes to interrogation, I am a professional."

"Comrade Lieutenant, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and talk, what did he call?" Sokov urged.

"The man's real name is Moritz, and he is a SS major." Zhu Kewen said: "His mission is to command a special airborne unit to search for the 315th Infantry Division and destroy it."

"What, the enemy is coming for me?" Polytic's face was filled with disbelief.

"Comrade lieutenant, keep talking." Sokov was eager to understand the whole situation, so he interrupted and asked, "What's going on when he was chased by German soldiers?"

"Comrade Brigade Commander, this matter is quite interesting. Listen to me and say it slowly." Zhu Kowen said: "Moritz commanded the task force and launched an attack on the 315th Division's troops. Although it achieved certain results, no trace of the division headquarters was found. Yesterday, they encountered a unit of the 315th Division. The task force suffered heavy losses. The captain and Moritz had a conflict, so they ordered people to tie Moritz up.

It was myself this morning. Moritz took advantage of the soldiers guarding him to doze off and killed one of them and quietly escaped from the camp. As a result, he was discovered by other members of the task force, so the captain sent someone to chase him. It was a coincidence that Moritz met the reconnaissance team of the 315th Division on his way to escape. When the other party saw him wearing our uniform and being chased by the Germans, he mistakenly thought he was our own people and brought him here."

After listening to Zhu Kowen's story, Sokov was just a little surprised, but Politic was shocked and sweated. He thought that if Sokov had not seen through the other party's identity in time, he would have left the fake Lieutenant Grand by his side. At that time, the other party would throw a few grenades at the division headquarters while he was not paying attention, which would have caused heavy losses to the division headquarters.

Thinking of this, Polytic stepped forward and held Sokov's hand, and said in a grateful tone: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, thank you. If you hadn't seen through the German disguise in time, my division and I might be in danger at this moment."

Faced with Politic's gratitude, Sokov's expression was like this. After shook hands with the other party, he asked curiously: "Comrade Colonel, what are you going to deal with this German major?"

"Since he is wearing our army uniform, it means he is a spy." Polytic said with a serious expression: "The spy cannot be considered a prisoner of war, just shoot him directly." The scout who brought the fake Grand back stood not far away. He waved to the other party, "Comrade Sergeant, come to me."

"Comrade Commander," the scout came to Polytic and asked carefully: "What instructions do you have?"

Polytic said: "After interrogation, the lieutenant has confessed that he is a German major and you take him out and shoot him now."

The scout agreed and followed Zhu Kewen and others to see Major Moritz.

"It's so dangerous." Politic said again: "I almost put my division headquarters in danger because of my negligence."

Sokov didn't say anything, his eyes were now on the map, trying hard to find a way to get the 315th Division out of trouble.

"Ltd Colonel," seeing Sokov staring at the map, Polytic leaned over and asked curiously, "Do you have any new ideas?"

"Comrade Colonel, look here." Sokov pointed to a location on the map and said to Polytic: "According to the map, there seems to be a railway station here."

"It's a freight center." Polytic was obviously very familiar with the terrain here. Hearing Sokov said this, he immediately replied: "There are dozens of tank trucks and two locomotives parked inside. Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, what did you say this do?"

Sokov did not immediately answer the other party's question, but asked: "Who is this freight station now in its hands? Are we still Germans?"

"There is no strategic value there, so neither we nor the Germans have entered."

After hearing Polytic's reply, Sokov said, "Comrade Colonel, I have a bold idea."

"What's the idea?"

"Let the troops occupy the freight station immediately, and then all the personnel board the train and return to our army's defense zone."

"What?" Polytic immediately widened his eyes in surprise when he heard Sokov say this: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, do you mean to let our division commanders and soldiers take the train and return to our army's defense line?"

"Yes, that's what I mean." Sokov asked back, "What's wrong?"

"You just said that from us to your defense zone, there are four lines of defense for the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the Defence of the De

"That's not necessarily." Sokov smiled slightly and then continued: "We can pass through the enemy's defense line and enter our army's defense zone by disguising this train as a German vehicle and then carrying troops eastward."

Polytic felt that Sokov's plan was too crazy. He asked the soldiers to take the train to return to the Soviet defense zone. Once they were attacked by the enemy on the way, they would have no power to fight back. Then thousands of people would become lambs to be slaughtered. Therefore, he said decisively: "Sorry, comrade Lieutenant Colonel, your idea is too fantasy. I cannot let my subordinates take risks. Please forgive me for not accepting your suggestions."

Polytic's reaction was already as expected by Sokov. Thousands of people took trains and passed through the enemy's defense zone. This could not be described as bold. It can only be said to be too crazy. Once there is any mistake, the army will be wiped out on the way, and there is not even the power to fight back.
