Chapter 122: Pulling the team

After listening to Andreasdorf's answer, Sun Hui understood why he went to the "punishment camp", and couldn't help but feel wronged for him.

Because of Stalin's misjudgment, insisting that the German army would not attack the Soviet Union until the conquest of Britain, the Soviet army was still in a state of second-level combat readiness. In this state, the soldiers are in the barracks, the guns are in the weapons depot, and the bullets are in the ammunition depot, and the three are separated. As a result, the Soviet army could not return fire in time in the face of a surprise attack, and Andreasdorf's experience is a true portrayal of this situation.

Sun Hui remembered that the situation was urgent, and the NKVD officers in charge of the ammunition depot did not receive orders from their superiors, and refused to open the ammunition depot despite the strong demands of the Soviet officers and soldiers, forcing Rokossovsky, commander of the 9th Mechanized Army of the Soviet Army, to arrest the officers of the Internal Affairs Committee, seize the key, forcibly open the ammunition depot to distribute ammunition to his subordinate units, and boldly took away all 200 reserve vehicles. If one considers that the general, who had been persecuted, had just recently been released from the prison of the NKVD (where he had several teeth knocked out), one cannot fail to recognize Rokossovsky's extraordinary courage.

"I'm afraid that's not all you have to ask, right?" The "NKVD" officer sneered, "Don't forget your status as a 'political prisoner'!" ”

Hearing the word "political prisoner", Sun Hui secretly laughed in his heart, which strengthened his determination to use this person. Because most of the political prisoners are people with ideals and feelings, for him, carrying out such a dangerous task as killing Himmler makes it easier for political prisoners to be motivated to go to the front line desperately.

He remembered that in history, when the "NKVD" selected prisoners from labor camps to go to the front, those thieves and robbers retreated, while those political prisoners all took the initiative to go to the front line to participate in the war and defend the motherland, not caring at all about being ridiculed as "fools" by other prisoners.

What Sun Hui needs most now is such a "fool" who is proficient in business.

"Forget about the past, now the motherland needs someone who can defend her." Ye Chuchu said on the side.

"I'm just reminding you, Comrade Elena," the officer of the "NKVD" hastenedly said, "we were ordered to assist you and Comrade Alexander in their work, and naturally we have to fulfill our duty of reminder." ”

"Thank you very much, Comrade Captain. Can you transfer him to us? Ye Chuchu smiled at him, and the "NKVD" officer immediately smiled and nodded again and again, "Of course you can." ”

"Here is their roster, Comrade Alexander." The "NKVD" officer handed a notebook to Sun Hui, "There is a record of what they used to do, which is convenient for you to choose, but many people are estimated to be dead." ”

"Thank you, Comrade Captain." Sun Hui took the list and looked through it, and when he saw that there was a tankman surnamed "Lomonosov" on the first page, he remembered the kind and enthusiastic workshop director of the Kirov factory, the first person who proposed to him to go to the punishment camp to get people, and immediately pronounced his name, "Meheyi. Sergeyevich. Lomonosov. ”

Andrasdorf saw that the soldier of the punishment battalion who had helped him fight and was buried in a pile of bricks had walked out of the queue and stood upright in front of Sun Hui with his head held high.

Sun Hui recognized him, the battle scene just now still lingered in his mind, and he was very impressed by this heroic warrior.

"You're a tanker? What tanks have you driven? Sun Hui asked.

"I'm driving a 'KV-2' tank, Comrade Alexander." Lomonosov replied, "The tank was assembled by my own hands, and before it was painted, the enemy attacked, and my partners and I drove it directly to the battlefield, crushed 12 enemy anti-tank guns, knocked out 3 armored vehicles, and then it ran out of fuel and got stuck in a ditch, and we were forced to abandon it." ”

"This tank you assembled with your own hands?" Sun Hui's heart moved, "What did you do before?" ”

"I turned out to be a mechanical fitter at the Kirov plant, Comrade Alexander." Lomonosov replied, "The fascists invaded the Motherland, and I was one of the first skilled workers to sign up for the army. ”

Lomonosov's answer confirmed Sun Hui's suspicions, so he added Lomonosov to the list of callers.

Sun Hui quickly singled out 20 people among the soldiers in the punishment camp, and seeing that half of the 20 people were political prisoners, the "NKVD" officer felt that he still needed to remind Sun Hui.

"Comrade Alexander, don't you think that the proportion of political prisoners among the people you have chosen is too high?" "NKVD" said the officer.

"Don't worry, Comrade Captain, if they think that under my hands they can relieve themselves of the duty of defending the Motherland, they are very mistaken." Sun Hui looked at the 20 people in front of him, his gaze instantly became cold and sharp, "Many of you should have seen how I killed the fascists." Today, I can save you from the hands of the German fascists, and tomorrow, if you want to betray the Motherland and Comrade Stalin, I will unceremoniously cut off his limbs and finally his head. Do you understand what I say? ”

"Understood." The soldiers of the punishment camp replied.

"Answer me out loud!" Sun Hui yelled, startling the "NKVD" officer.

"Understood!" The bloody nature of the soldiers in the punishment camp seemed to be aroused, and they replied loudly.

That night, Lomonosov, the workshop director who was still working overtime, learned that his younger brother had been transferred from the punishment battalion to the special tank platoon by Sun Hui, and he looked at the "KV-220" tank that the workers were refitting, and shed tears of excitement.

At this time, the chief designer of the Kirov plant, Marshal Voroshilov's son-in-law, Kotin, together with Marshal Voroshilov, came to the workshop to inspect the modification of the KV-220 and T-150 tanks.

Lomonosov was not surprised by Kotin's arrival, and it was natural for him to attach importance to the modification of the "KV-220" tank: because the brilliant achievements and heroic battles of the "521" crew were widely reported by British journalists, and the Soviet propaganda department made it a household name not only in the Soviet Union, but also on the other side of the ocean. Because the "521" crew drove the "KV-1" tank to achieve the first record in the Soviet army, as the chief designer of the "KV" series of tanks, Kotin naturally had a great light, and never worried about the "KV" project squeezing out the "T-34" series.

Cotin's heart can be said to be full of gratitude to the "521" crew, but he knows that he is not suitable to show this gratitude on the surface, but secretly as long as he can help these young people, he will not spare his energy to do it.
