Chapter 409: Instructions
Katukov couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and said: "When they attacked Feodosia? ”
"Yes!" Shulka nodded and said, "If they cross the defense of the 46th Division and attack us, we can launch a counteroffensive with the situation......"
"And then, after crushing them, follow them to break through the defenses of the 46th Division?"
"Yes!" "If it were at night, the Germans wouldn't be able to tell the difference between friend and foe," Shulka said. ”
"What does it mean to be mixed in with the Romanian army?" Katukov asked.
"Put on the uniform of the Romanian army!" Shulka explained: "Flee with the Romanian soldiers, and then hide in the German trenches......"
"Captain!" Lieutenant Colonel Gavrilov interrupted Shulka: "But how can we tell them? I mean, our people will also treat them as enemies, if at the same time in the dark of night they are wearing the uniforms of Romanian soldiers! ”
"We can use some conventions!" Shulka said: "For example, tie a white towel on your left arm! ”
The officers did not speak, because while it worked, it didn't really work...... No one on the battlefield will carefully tell whether there is a white towel on the left arm, which is just a psychological comfort.
After a moment of silence, Katukov said: "This is a good way, we can consciously drive the Romanians to the high ground on both sides, so that we can easily seize these high ground and ensure the safety of the supply line!" ”
It's the same Shulka thought.
You must know that the Romanian reinforcements are mountain brigades, and the best thing mountain brigades are at is mountain warfare.
On the other hand, once the Romanian army is defeated, a large number of deserters will rush to the road, and the road will be blocked, so there is no need for the Soviet army to "drive away", and the Romanian army will spontaneously rush to the high ground on both sides...... This is their way of life, and they certainly won't give up.
So, the Soviet soldiers who mixed into the Romanian army had an opportunity.
"Woohoo!" Lieutenant Colonel Zahakavich said: "I think we should go and get some Romanian uniforms!" ”
"Leave this to someone else!" Katukov said: "It's not difficult! ”
This is not difficult because the Soviet Union has a long history of strife on the border with Romania, and just two years ago the Soviet Union sent troops to occupy Bisabiraya in Romania...... This was one of the reasons why Romania was able to become an ally of Germany and fought so hard.
For these reasons, the USSR was well aware of the situation in Romania, not to mention military uniforms, and with the industrial capacity of the USSR, even temporary production was not much of a problem.
"Important!" Katukov continued: "How can we ensure that the Romanians attack Feodosia and not defend with the 46th Division!" ”
This is a real problem, Romania is a mountain army, and sensible commanders will have them stationed in the mountains rather than attacking a city.
"We can't guarantee it, Colonel!" "All we can do is give them some 'advice'! ”
"Suggestions?" Katukov looked at Shulka suspiciously, and then he understood what Shulka was referring to, and couldn't help laughing: "Oh, Shulka, you can not only give us advice, but also give advice to the enemy!" ”
While Katukov and others were working out detailed plans, Shulka approached Mekhlis.
The command of Mehris also moved to Feodosia.
It's not because of how heroic he is, but because he, a landlubber, is not used to being on a boat...... From this it is also evident that he did not know much about the war.
Because as long as you have a little understanding of the battlefield, you will know that the battleship is the safest place at this time, you can attack and retreat, you can defend, and it is a big deal to turn around and return to the Caucasus.
But that's not what Mehris thinks.
In his eyes, a target the size of a battleship is the target of the enemy's aircraft, and from time to time German night fighters fly overhead, the motor whistles, and the anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns roar...... It's so scary, it's like standing naked in front of the enemy without cover.
How good it is to go ashore, find a safe place to hide, the enemy does not know where he is at all.
Of course, he would not have imagined that in the event of a counterattack by the enemy and the defeat of the Soviet army, then Feodosia would actually be surrounded by the Germans.
Therefore, Mehris set up his headquarters in a pillbox, which was originally a coastal defense artillery fortification built by the Soviet army, and the concrete wall used to resist the naval artillery was more than a meter thick.
"Comrade Shulka!" Seeing Shulka come in, Mekhlis, who was holding a wine glass, happily waved to Shulka, then took a glass for Shulka and poured wine, saying, "Do you know what this is?" French champagne, I heard that the enemy likes to celebrate with champagne when they have won...... Now, we celebrate the defeat of the enemy with champagne captured from them, which is ironic, isn't it? ”
The people around him couldn't help but laugh in agreement.
Of course, this was no problem for Mehris, but if it were someone else, it would probably be a "potential enemy corrupted by hostile thoughts".
Then Mehris raised his glass, circled around, and proudly shouted: "Comrades, for our victory, for the 'breakout hero' Shulka, cheers!" ”
"Cheers!"
……
After taking a sip, Shulka put down his glass and said: "Comrade Mehris, I think it's too early to celebrate the victory!" ”
"Yes, of course!" "We still have to drive the Germans out of the Soviet Union and completely eliminate these *** elements, and that's when we celebrate our victory!" ”
Mehris was already reeling from the victory in front of him.
He does seem to have a reason to be proud, after all, the results in front of him are not small, not to mention the successful landing in Feodosia, but also the successful rescue of the Kerch Peninsula, and the crisis of the Crimean Peninsula is expected to be lifted, which is already a great victory for Mehris, who can only make small reports.
"You are right, Comrade Mehris!" "However, I think we should think first of all about driving the Germans out of the Crimea!" Shulka said. ”
"Do you have a way to get them out of the Crimea?" Mekhlis's eyes lit up.
At this time, he has already tasted the sweetness of victory, so of course he will cooperate with Shulka unconditionally.
But then again, who doesn't love a win?
"Yes, Comrade Mehris!" Shulka said, "We have a plan, but of course, it needs your instructions!" ”
