Under the counteroffensive of the Soviet army, control of the building was soon returned to the Soviet army.

It should be said that such a counteroffensive is invincible, and the Soviet soldiers who occupy the top positions have an absolute geographical advantage, even if they do not counterattack at the lower levels, and only use explosive packs and grenades to pull the ropes down one by one, the Germans will not be able to stand it.

There are even fighters among them who have made some kind of improvement to this tactic.

It's not an improvement, it's just a bit more difficult: they grab one end of the rope and throw a grenade or explosive bag at the other end into the distance.

As a result, the grenades and explosives pack move in a circular motion under the dual action of gravity and rope traction...... At the moment when grenades and explosive packets move at high speed into the lower space, as soon as the ropes are loosened, they will be thrown to the side of the Germans by inertia or even into the rooms on the lower floors through the windows.

The explosives exploded in a confined space with great power, and the Germans in the middle of it would be shocked or temporarily deaf, even if they were not directly injured.

To put it simply, the German troops in the lower echelons had no way to avoid it, and they could only be bombed.

The disadvantage of this tactic is that it is relatively difficult to resupply on the upper floors of the building, after all, ammunition and explosives are not inexhaustible.

However, this shortcoming has long been compensated for by Shulka in other ways.

The first is to concentrate as much ammunition as possible in a safe location on the upper floors.

Of course, it cannot be placed on the top floor, otherwise it can easily be blown up.

Secondly, ammunition can be transported by steel cables between floors...... There is a steel cable that has been pulled in advance, in case the steel cable is broken, the Soviet army also has a military powerful crossbow, which can fire a kind of crossbow arrow with a barb, which can be easily hooked when fired into a nearby floor or window, and with the cooperation of the opposite side, a box of ammunition can be slid through.

However, the Germans did not have time to rush to the time when the Soviets needed to transport ammunition, but in just twenty minutes, the Germans left a pile of corpses and wounded and withdrew from the building.

Normally, the German retreat would bring with them corpses or wounded, especially the wounded.

But the current situation does not allow them to do so, because they know very well what they are in...... They had already stormed the complex, and they themselves were not the most dangerous inside the building, because at least there was something to cover.

As soon as they exited the building, and the Soviets took control of the surrounding buildings, it was condescending to fire at them from several directions.

In this case, it is difficult for even good hands and feet to escape, and running with the wounded is almost like looking for death.

Perhaps thinking about how to attack these buildings, the Germans were silent for a while.

On the other hand, they sent transport planes to drop supplies to the troops attacking Mamayev Heights...... Having air supremacy has such an advantage, it seems that they will never be surrounded by the enemy, or that it will be quite difficult for the Soviets to encircle them.

Taking advantage of this time, Shulka and Mikhailvich returned along the sewers to the "Red October" metallurgical plant to meet with Golikov.

"Comrade Shulka!" As soon as he saw Shulka, Golikov greeted him warmly and shook his hand.

"I've finally seen you!" Golikov said: "Thank you for everything, otherwise the Mamayev post would probably have fallen into the hands of the enemy, and then the situation in Stalingrad would have been very serious!" ”

Shulka saluted Golikov and replied: "This is what I should do, Comrade Golikov!" ”

"This is Comrade Krylov!" Golikov introduced Shulka: "Chief of Staff of Army Group! ”

Hearing this, Shulka's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Although Krylov was only the chief of staff of the army group at this time, he would become a marshal after the war, and he would be the most important branch of the Soviet Union...... Commander-in-Chief of the Strategic Rocket Forces.

It can be said that he was a man of the year after the war.

"Comrade Shulka, in fact, we have fought together several times!" Krylov said with a smile.

"Really?" Shulka couldn't help but wonder when he heard this: "I'm sorry, Comrade Krylov, I don't remember meeting you before!" ”

"No, no, we haven't met!" Krylov replied: "I used to be the head of the operational department in Odessa, and the chief of staff in Sevastopol!" ”

Hearing this, Shulka understood.

"I've fought in both places!" Shulka said.

"Yes!" Krylov nodded: "At that time, I was part of the Primorsky Army, and you were part of the infantry, so although we fought in the same place, we never met. Speaking of which, you should have saved my life twice! ”

As he spoke, Krylov and Golikov looked at each other and smiled.

Krylov was not joking, because it was Shulka who relieved the siege of Odessa, and then Shulka...... At that time, it should be said that Mehlis landed in the Crimea and repelled Manstein, who at that time was besieging the fortress of Sevastopol, where Krylov was located.

In contrast to their enthusiasm for Shulka, Golikov and Krylov greeted Mikhailvich only politely.

But Mikhailvich doesn't mind that.

One day, when Shulka asked about this "noisy" situation, Mikhailvich replied with a smile: "Don't pay attention to that, Shulka, because I know I can't compare with you." On the other hand, my greatest wish is to take my troops well, so that they can become a normal, honorable army that can stand tall in front of their relatives and the motherland, and I don't care about anything else! ”

Shulka understood what Mikhailvich meant, and that he and his troops had been going too long in "washing away the shame" and that there was no hope in sight. Now that he has been treated fairly and justly, what more could he ask for?

But in fact, Shulka always knew that the 82nd Infantry Regiment did not need to wash any shame, because they had never had shame, and of course they did not have to wash.

"Comrade Shulka!" Golikov invited Shulka and Mikhailvich to the map and said: "I want to talk about your opinion of Stalingrad and how we should fight this battle!" ”

"First of all, I think we should be clear about our goals, Comrade General!" Shulka said to Golikov: "We should hold Stalingrad and not retreat!" And if we want to hold Stalingrad, we can't have the slightest intention of retreating, even a little! ”

Golikov and Krylov looked at each other.

Before that, they did not believe that the Soviets could hold Stalingrad, even after the successful Shulka raid.

Therefore, at this time, they are actually still hesitating.
