No one knows more about the situation in Leopovka than Peroniski, because the land where the troops are now located was once an area where the "locomotive partisan brigade" was active.

"The so-called Leopovka may have the character of an important railway station by now, but it is still a large concentration camp after all!

My comrades and I infiltrated here a few months ago and observed the enemy from afar. I looked through the binoculars and saw a lot of people in our winter uniforms getting out of stuffy tankers and being sent into a camp.

In subsequent observations, I also saw that some of the camps were full of people, and the Germans drove them onto the train, which headed west.

I also saw people dressed in blue and white stripes, or completely civilians, getting out of the car and starting to undress. They were sent to some rooms, and the next thing I saw was that the Germans were pulling a lot of unidentified objects out of those rooms on a flatbed cart and sending them to a much larger building, and soon the two towering chimneys began to smoke black! ”

After all, Peroniski didn't go in personally, but the results of his observations from a distance are already telling.

"Comrades! I think our guide has explained exactly what Leopovka is!

Right! It was a killing factory and a transit point for the population. The enemy is there to kill our peaceful inhabitants and maim our comrades. They also sent a large number of people away, and some surveys have shown that they treat us as complete slaves! So we're going to hit it soon, comrades, what do you say we're going to do?! ”

"Kill all the Germans, of course!"

Yang Mingzhi was stunned, the person who spoke was Qiao Shuya, which surprised him a little.

"That's right, I support our lesbians' decision!" Balzen glanced at her and expressed his attitude without hesitation: "For the German defenders and traitors who serve them, we will treat them in the same way as others!" ”

Speaking of which, the attitude of the two paratrooper company commanders was not as extreme as that of their comrades. Rychev replied: "Of course, we have to destroy all the enemies and save as many people as possible." But we also have to think carefully, when we turn the enemy's killing factory into a sea of fire, the enemy will definitely start a pursuit, and we must be ready to stop the enemy.

And most importantly, we must settle the battle in a short period of time and win the opportunity to save the people. However, I now have absolutely no idea about the topography and architectural arrangement of Leopovka! ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "Rychev, you are an elite veteran after all!" Before we can punish the enemy, we have to complete the mission. ”

With that, he took out a folded piece of brown paper and spread it out on the grass.

"Comrades situation, this is the topographic map of Leopovka painted by Comrade Peronissky from memory. I don't think much will change in that place in four months, and this map still has a huge reference value. ”

Since Peroniski's switch, he has not been near the camp.

Judging by the picture above, Leopovka is located in the river plain.

The Pripet River is deserted for at least a kilometre on both sides of the river, and Mozir was, after all, a city inhabited by tens of thousands of people before the war. Much of the surrounding forest has been cleared and farmland has been replaced.

Yang Mingzhi and Balzen were very familiar with the geography of that area, because the terrain was relatively open, and in last year's encounter, the Romanians could run tanks here, so the Soviets could come to a positional battle.

The terrain of Leopovka is also very similar, it is only fifteen kilometers from Mozyr, it is connected by dirt roads between them, the road condition is not good, not to mention many potholes, and there are a lot of mud sections on some sections.

Leopovka was divided into two parts, one was a prisoner of war camp and the other was a concentration camp.

The role of the POW camp was mainly to serve as a prisoner of war turnover, and prisoners brought in from the front line were sent here, and the German army here would screen them. According to the physical fitness, arrange their future destination. For example, young and strong, such people will be sent to trains to various mines. If you are weak and sick, you will simply kill them.

And the concentration camps can be described in just one word, "killing factories".

Peroniski speculated: "It is also possible for the enemy to expand there, and since they can transfer the population again, they will also be able to transfer strategic goods." I don't know if the enemy will build a warehouse there, and if that happens, we'll have one more character. ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "Your speculation is very reasonable, so before the battle, we must conduct a key reconnaissance." Balzen! ”

"Dao!"

"As soon as the meeting is over, you take action. I have planted Peroniski in your battalion, and the reconnaissance battalion will be the first to act, and it will be important to arrive before nightfall, and the first round of reconnaissance will be launched. ”

"I promise to complete the mission!"

Balzen agreed without thinking about it, Yang Mingzhi patted him on the shoulder with concern, and continued: "This is the most critical task in this operation, you must complete the task!" And I, I will reduce your burden as much as possible. Balzen, your men move lightly and unload their heavy equipment! In this way, you will be able to reach your goal in three hours, when the sun has not set. ”

From the announcement of the order to Balzen, Yang Mingzhi announced his entire operational plan against Leopovka.

The area numbered "Я2,78", where the troops are currently located, is the base camp of the troops, and the fighters who participated in the attack will unload their heavy bags, march with only a small ration and a pot of water, and carry all their weapons and ammunition.

Joshua's women's battalion remained in the barracks as a strategic reserve, and in the event of an accident on the front line, they immediately reinforced it. At the same time, they also take care of the equipment of their comrades.

The paramedics immediately began to set up field hospitals to deal with the wounded who had been evacuated after the fierce fighting.

Yang Mingzhi also specially ordered Bersky, he, a photographer, shouldered the important responsibility of exposing the crimes of the Nazis, and he would also fight with the army!

The meeting ended, and the people who had been given the order immediately began to carry it out.

For Balzen, he and his brothers were about to overdraw their lives again, but they were willing. The losses in the last battle were too great, and Balzen held his breath and wanted revenge. He keenly found that the chief had a lot of complaints about himself, and this time he was still taking on a heavy responsibility, I am afraid that this was the last chance he gave himself. If you can't complete the task perfectly, you will really fall out of favor! Those "red dandelions" will take their place.

It was this sense of crisis that had to make him pay more attention, and the 600 men of the reconnaissance battalion had been completely lightly armed, with a lot less weight and a great increase in the speed of marching.

They were galloping through the forest, under the leadership of Peroniski, who was thin but unexpectedly high-spirited, and swooped down on their target.

On the contrary, Yang Mingzhi gave the large army, that is, the troops dominated by the officers and soldiers of the 233rd Paratrooper Brigade, a seemingly very inexplicable task - sleeping.

"I plan that the whole army will launch a general attack on the target at two o'clock in the morning tomorrow, and before that, everyone must recuperate, even the reconnaissance battalion will rest after the reconnaissance. Our main forces will wait for intelligence from the reconnaissance battalion, and as soon as the intelligence is favorable, we will set off at nine o'clock in the evening. ”

The order was explained so thoroughly that the paratroopers could not have imagined that they had laid out blankets in the high sun and were ordered to lie on the ground one by one.

The first night battle was held, and the soldiers were excited, and who was really embarrassed? The order is absolute, whether it is sleeping or tossing and turning, the troops will be drawn at nine o'clock in the evening, and when the whole army returns here, the sun will rise tomorrow!

Yang Mingzhi didn't care so much, his mentality was very good, the blanket threw himself on the grass, and he lay on the ground heartlessly, and there was a burst of snoring after a while......
