But this situation lasted only a few days.

The reason was that the Supreme High Command formed the Stalingrad Front for the defense of Stalingrad...... It was composed of the 62nd, 63rd, and 64th Armies, which were urgently transferred from the Supreme Command, and the 21st Army of the Southwestern Front, as the backbone, and then incorporated other units.

The Stalingrad Front was stationed north of Stalingrad and defended by the South-Eastern Front, both under the command of Lieutenant General Goldov.

Then, a steady stream of supplies from Stalingrad was sent to the front...... But of course, these supplies were more like they were given to the enemy, because not only did they fail to stop the German advance, but instead left a large amount of equipment and ammunition for the enemy in one fell swoop.

Compared to this, on the other hand, it is more of a headache for Shulka.

On this day, while Shulka was reviewing the documents, Mikhailvich handed over a telegram and said: "Look at this, Shulka, Major General Stepan ordered us to rush to Bryansk to return to the troops!" ”

Major General Stepan was the commander of the 27th Infantry Division, that is, the superior of the 82nd Infantry Regiment.

"We still receive this!" Before the two of them could figure out how to respond, Andrianka brought another telegram and said: "This is an order from the Stalingrad Front, they ordered us to report to the 62nd Army immediately!" ”

"They're crazy!" Major Mikhailvich said: "Whose orders should we obey?" We can't be split into two! ”

Shulka knew that no matter which order was executed, it would not be good for the 82nd Infantry Regiment.

Rush to Bryansk...... The newly formed Bryansk Front, in order to relieve the pressure on Stalingrad, was ordered to launch an offensive against the enemy, and the 82nd Infantry Regiment arrived there to become a veritable cannon fodder unit.

Reported to the 62nd Army, that is, it was used as a field force outside the city.

No matter which one is chosen, it means that the 82nd Infantry Regiment's training for urban street fighting during this period has been in vain.

"We can do this!" Shulka said: "Tell the Bryansk Front that we received an order from the Stalingrad side, and likewise tell the Stalingrad Front similar information!" ”

"It won't last long, Shulka!" Major Mikhailvich said: "They will finally decide where we should stay or be transferred to Bryansk, or the 62nd Army!" ”

Shulka turned his gaze to Kalashnikov.

"What?" Kalashnikov did not understand what Shulka meant.

"Now it's up to you, Comrade Kalashnikov!" Shulka said: "We need to stay in Stalingrad, in the city, in the tractor factory to be exact!" ”

"But how can I do that?" Kalashnikov asked rhetorically: "You know, I don't have this power!" ”

"You don't have that power!" "But if at this time the tractor factory asks a unit to protect the tractor factory from possible enemy spies or guerrillas, I don't think it will be difficult," Shulka said. ”

Kalashnikov said "oh", then nodded and said: "No problem, I think I should go and meet Comrade Sisoy!" ”

It is conceivable that Sisoi will not refuse, after all, at this time the tractor factory and the scientific researchers here need to increase the protection of the troops...... Originally, there was only one guard battalion of more than 300 people in the entire tractor factory, and these people were usually enough to protect the tractor factory, but now they are clumsy and embarrassed.

So the 82nd Infantry Regiment was transformed into a temporary guard unit of the tractor factory.

That night, Major Mikhailvich reported this information to the Bryansk and Stalingrad Fronts.

Neither front has anything to say about this.

On the one hand, as a front army, it is insignificant to have one more cannon fodder regiment or one less cannon fodder regiment, and on the other hand, it is indeed a great duty to protect tractors and scientific researchers, especially since this tractor factory is also the main base for the production of T34 tanks.

Shulka thought that he would wait for the arrival of the Germans in Stalingrad with the 82nd Infantry Regiment in this way, but it turned out that he was thinking too much.

That night, a jeep came to a halt outside Shulka's dormitory, and a colonel jumped out of the jeep, and he and the guards ran to the door in a hurry and slammed the door.

Shulka, who was woken up, knew that something was happening as soon as possible.

Because if it is your own person in the tractor factory, no one has the courage to knock on the door like this.

When I opened the door, I saw a colonel ask with a serious face: "Are you Shulka?" 'Breakout Hero' Shulka? ”

"Yes!" Shulka replied.

"Come with me!" With that, the colonel turned and walked towards the jeep.

Seeing that Shulka behind him didn't follow, he turned his head in confusion.

Shulka spread his hands and said, "Sir, I'm still in my pajamas!" ”

This is Shulka's habit after going to the tractor factory...... Conditions at the tractor plant are much better than ever.

But the colonel, apparently not caring so much, replied: "Captain, even if you are wearing nothing now, you should get into the car immediately, understand?" ”

"What's going on?" Mikhailvich and several guards hurried over.

"I am from the command of the Stalingrad Front!" The colonel replied: "Lieutenant General Goldov needs Comrade Shulka to go to the command!" ”

Major Mikhailvich was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I have not received any orders, Comrade Colonel!" ”

"You can call and ask!" The colonel said angrily: "But now, I must take people away!" ”

"No!" Major Mikhailvich said: "Comrade Colonel, I think you should take people away after I ask clearly!" ”

"This is the ...... of the command"

"Comrade Colonel!" Major Mikhailvich interrupted him: "How do I know that you are not a spy for the Germans? ”

"Okay!" The colonel glared angrily at Major Mikhailvich, then took out his ID from his pocket and handed it over: "This is my military ID!" ”

Major Mikhailvich took the document and looked at it, and said: "This doesn't mean anything, I stayed with the Germans, they can easily forge such documents, and no one can tell the real from the fake!" ”

It's true, the Soviet military ID card was so rough that the real ones looked like fakes, and the fake ones looked more real than the real ones.

"And what do you want, Major?" The colonel asked dissatisfiedly: "Do you know what the consequences will be if you delay the military situation?" ”

"I know!" Major Mikhailvich said: "But you have to know one thing, Colonel! You're going to take our deputy head with you, and if you find out, none of us here will let you go! ”

The colonel looked around, and at some point the officers and men of the 82nd Infantry Regiment were already around, and quite some of them had even been loaded with bullets, and their fingers were lightly pulling the trigger.
