The battle is over, and the battlefield is in shambles. The village was littered with corpses, and it was mainly the Germans who were lying down.

Yang Mingzhi only felt dizzy, as if the soldiers didn't leave a living mouth at all. Some of these dead bodies were killed by multiple gunshot wounds, but some were killed by the explosion. In battle, the secret weapon was put into practice, and the light rockets fired from the steel pipes looked good.

At the very least, this weapon can kill and injure the enemy's combatants, as for tanks and armored vehicles, the effect is not good.

He and the fighters went to the scene of the execution of the villagers, and the situation here was also very bad.

When the villagers saw that it was their own people who came, many of them hugged the soldiers and cried, and there were also cursing voices, saying that it was too late.

Yes, but it was a little late. Yang Mingzhi looked at the corpses on the ground, the enemy had just been shooting indiscriminately at the crowd, there were old people and children in the end, and some of the wounded were covering the injured parts and groaning in pain.

"Medic! Doctor? Yang Mingzhi shouted loudly, and after a while, a few female soldiers with red cross armbands on their shoulders came.

"Why are you so slow, our compatriots are bleeding." Yang Mingzhi was a little emotional.

"However, our soldiers are injured on the way to the charge, we must treat them first."

Yang Mingzhi hesitated, what he said was very right. "What about Bessica? She's also a medic and called me. ”

The female soldier replied helplessly: "Betsica, she and Natasha have already started to help the wounded soldiers. ”

At this time, Yerenkina walked by, and she tried to keep her composure.

"You men are always emotional, and it's their duty to help the wounded, and then to the ordinary citizens." Yelenkina patted Yang Mingzhi on the shoulder, "You, it's better to calm down with your fighters first, and the rest should be left to me." ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded, Yelenkina was in charge of things other than the battle after all. Now that the battle is over, it's time to clean up the battlefield right away.

A battalion of troops remained on alert around the village, and inside the village, the fighters began to clear the battlefield.

Everything was just as Yang Mingzhi had originally requested, and the soldiers were collecting something that could be used. Yerenkina also did not care about 3721 and announced to the surviving villagers that some of their belongings had been expropriated.

Perhaps only the Eighth Route Army would not take a stitch from the masses, here in the Soviet Union, when Lenin set the Songun policy under the conditions of war, and now that the Soviet-German war broke out, the Soviet Army still started the Songun policy.

The surviving villagers understood this, and they did not dare to disobey their great motherland, so they allowed the soldiers to take the bedding and leather clothes out of their houses and pile them on the ground.

While the soldiers were busy, Yang Mingzhi seemed to be at leisure, and he and the officers gathered together to smoke cigarettes.

Balzen was a little nervous, his rash attack was indeed not an order from the chief, and the commander did not get angry, and immediately asked weakly.

Yang Mingzhi listened and spit out a string of smoke rings. "Balzen, as for you not following my orders, this kind of thing is indeed against the regulations. But judging from the results, your unauthorized attack has really saved the lives of many villagers. I'm a very flexible person, don't think of me as a pedantic general. You and your warriors struck decisively, caught the enemy by surprise, and we ended the battle quickly. This point, it is not a mistake, or rather, you seized the fighter. Judging by the results, it was a successful raid battle. ”

Balzen breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "However, if the large army is also present, we can devise a better plan, so that perhaps we can have fewer casualties." ”

Yang Mingzhi shook his head: "There are casualties in wars, and it is also an honor for us to die on our own land. Besides, if we do it late, I will be faced with the corpses of more than 100 villagers. ”

Yang Mingzhi handed Balzen a cigarette and explained to the gathered officers.

So cleverness and stupidity are often just a thought, Yang Mingzhi did not encourage his subordinates, what will be disregarded by the foreign monarch's order, but asked them to stare wide-eyed to find fighters, here is the difference between wit and recklessness.

The officers listened with little understanding, and Yang Mingzhi scratched his head. "Forget it, you better listen to orders, and I'll make the plan of action more detailed in the future."

On the other hand, the pacification of the villagers has begun, and Yerentina is an expert in this area.

Yang Mingzhi felt that he had rested enough, and he saw that the fighters were still looking around for something that could be used. "Really, my warriors searched too closely."

Spit to spit out, the fighters dismantled all the German backpacks. These backpacks contain their personal belongings, rations, water bottles, sapper shovels, and encircled bedding. These were standard equipment for German soldiers, and they also had a metal cylinder, which was actually a gas mask system.

This point, perhaps, the German army was overly concerned. Neither of the parties to the war used chemical weapons on a large scale, and if the Soviets and Germans had taken the lead, the Soviet Union had a large stockpile of poison gas in its warehouses. In the end, the war in Europe did not become the scene of World War I.

The collected supplies are placed in a small open space in the village, where the bodies of the dead are neatly placed.

"Report to the commander, six of our troops were killed and twenty wounded. Thirty villagers were killed and twenty-five injured. ”

Yang Mingzhi frowned, there were still soldiers sacrificed in this battle. Of course, in terms of the results of the battle, it is a great victory, and the price of victory is another - ammunition. Grenades and light rockets consume a lot, as do bullets.

But these were not a problem, and the troops eliminated more than 180 enemies and prevented them from escaping. The forest is dense, and it is difficult for the gunfire to travel very far, so the operation is still quite secretive.

But the troops still encountered the villagers, and since these people had found out, it was impossible to put them in this desperate place. How to place them, this is Yerenkina's responsibility.

"Send them all to the swamp, these people are old and weak, and the young ones are women. Teenagers can be trained as junior soldiers, young women can be female soldiers, and middle-aged and elderly people can also help. ”

Yang Mingzhi completely agrees. "Just do as you say, but I'd love to know who the Germans are hanging."

Yerentina listened and smiled: "Of course it's a guerrilla." But also not pure partisans, a few months ago they were also soldiers of the regular army of the Soviet army. ”

Yang Mingzhi was taken aback: "Could it be that the enemy came to clear the guerrillas, so he came over and chose to slaughter?" ”

Soon, Yerenkina led two people over, they were in rags, and a pair of shoes could tell that they were military shoes. When they saw the uniformed officers, the two men immediately saluted and reported their numbers.

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "I know these two divisions, you are also scattered like us, so as to conduct guerrilla warfare here." ”

"Yes sir, there is a small detachment of ours hidden in this wood, there are more than sixty of them!"

"What! There are more than sixty of you! ”

The two men recounted their fate, and after the troops were dispersed, everyone scattered and fled, and some fighters gathered together to form small units and use guerrilla warfare to fight the enemy. The locals were very sympathetic to these fighters and hated the invaders.

This time, the village was retaliated against for harboring the guerrillas, and the German troops in Qingxiang entered the village to search and the villagers who encountered obstruction were all shot. In this way, the villagers forged and prayed that the enemy would not pull out the guerrillas who were hiding.

However, the German army still succeeded, so that there was a public hanging. In fact, the Germans did not mean to slaughter all the villagers, they also needed to keep the villagers, and they would be useful in the future.

Yang Mingzhi nodded vigorously, and suddenly asked, "Ten days ago, there was a big explosion in the east, did you do that battle?" ”

"Yes, it was our 284th Guards Division that did it." Yang Mingzhi said proudly.

"It turned out to be true! It turns out that there really is such a huge team of you who is still in Belarus! ”

Yang Mingzhi didn't talk too much to this person, even if he bragged, now he only has a few simple questions. "Listen, comrade, since you have been fighting this group of enemies for a long time, what part of the German army are they in the end."

"It's the 707th Division of the German Army, and they are responsible for policing in this area, and they are typical security divisions. Last time you attacked them, killing at least a thousand of them. ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded, if he knew the history of that plane, the German 707th Division's actions in Belarus, he would not be as calm as he is now.

"Okay, comrade, you also see our huge troops. I'm Berekov, deputy commander of the 284th Guards Division. This time we are going to strike at the Germans again. Would your guerrilla friends be willing to join us? ”

The two asked to join almost without a second thought, claiming to be familiar with geography. This is a rare guide, and Yang Mingzhi and Yerenkina are both supportive after exchanging views.

Therefore, the troops made an improvised decision to divide a hundred warriors and ten horses to load the materials captured in the battle and retreat to the swamp. The surviving villagers followed the cart, and they urgently converted their carts into horse-drawn carriages, so that they could bring more. Here, in particular, the more than 100 quilts taken from the backpacks of the German soldiers were the most important, and then there were more than 100 pairs of good rubber-soled shoes.

The troops were diverted, and the fighters with poor combat effectiveness were withdrawn, and after the reduction in troops, the vitality did not decrease much.

The troops had to continue their departure, and the rescued guerrillas were eager to engage their ranks before merging to continue the fight.

Perhaps this will have to happen in the future, and the guerrillas, large and small, will eventually join forces one after another, and eventually become a powerful force, even a guerrilla republic, a union republic that even Stalin recognized.
