Having sent Lieutenant Colonel Tadeusz, Koval arranged for the evening duty and said to Maevsky: "I'll take a nap first, and call me up at eleven o'clock." Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info If there is a situation, you have to wake me up immediately! ”

A night attack is better in the second half of the night, and Koval seized the first half of the night to get some rest.

"Okay, sir, you can sleep in peace!" Majewski said.

Koval spread the straw mat on the ground, poured it down, covered it with his military coat, and soon fell asleep.

Division Commander Cronin stood on the high wall of the fortress of Fort Dina and watched as the Polish troops had surrounded the entire fortress.

"Sir, the telephone line has been cut by the Poles, is it possible to use the lights to signal the troops in the city to launch a night attack?" The officer behind him asked.

"Tonight's night raid plan is cancelled!" "Today the morale of the Polish troops is high, and the deployment is very well organized, you see, they have lit a dozen bonfires in front of the position, and our troops will be spotted as soon as they approach. Their defenses are too tight tonight, don't fight hard for the time being. ”

"But tomorrow the Polish army will attack the city?"

Division Commander Cronin said: "When they meet under our Fort Dina fortress tomorrow, we will take the opportunity to attack at night, hehe!" ”

"Sir, clever!"

"But even if you don't attack them, you can't let them rest! You send a signal for the troops in the city to send small units to harass the enemy army, not to kill the enemy, as long as they can't sleep! Commander Cronin said.

"Good strategy! So they were tired and panicked all night, and they certainly don't have much strength to fight us tomorrow. The officer exclaimed.

As the lights on the high walls of the fortress of Fort Dina seemed to change, the Soviet troops in the city of Daugavpils received the news.

The Soviet troops sent a dozen squads of two or three men to sneak up in front of the Polish positions.

A Soviet squad came more than two hundred meters in front of the Koval position.

"There's a bonfire in front of us, and we can't go any further, or we'll be discovered by the Poles." A middle-aged soldier said.

"You see, the location between the two campfires, it's darker there, we can touch in from there and give the Polish dog a few grenades to eat!" A young Soviet soldier said eagerly.

"You're crazy, how can you come back after going in like this? When you are found, you are dead. The soldier in the prime of life was surprised and said, "Let's just shoot a few shots here!" ”

"You coward, if you want to come, come big!" The young soldier said disdainfully: "If you don't go, I'll go alone, and nothing will happen to you." Well? ”

"There you go!" The middle-aged soldier thought for a moment and said, "I'll cover you in the back." Good luck! ”

The young Soviet soldier unceremoniously took the two grenades from the middle-aged soldier and put them in his arms.

He sneaked along the trenches dug by the Soviet troops towards the Polish positions.

He crept through the trench with his head bowed, and soon reached the middle of the two campfires.

By the light of the fire, it was possible to see that the trenches in front had been filled in by the Polish army, and that if you wanted to get there, you had to climb over the mound in front of you.

"!" The Soviet soldier cursed secretly, and walked over cautiously with his head down, constantly thinking: 'For such a short distance, as long as I crawl over, I will only be exposed to the ground for a second or two at most, and the Poles will not find me!' Can't find me! ’

Moving forward, suddenly the Soviet soldier felt as if something had stumbled under his feet, and he naturally thought: What is it?

With a bang, a grenade suddenly exploded under his feet, and the feet of the Soviet soldier were directly blown off, and his body was also blown into the trench. He lay on top of the dirt in the trenches, his lips pressed against the dirt, his body was pierced into a pineapple by shrapnel, and blood continued to flow from his body.

He paddled weakly on the ground with his hands, trying to turn over, but he didn't have enough strength.

After a few attempts, he finally gave up and slowly thought, 'Maybe it would be nice to not have the urge just now・・・・・・

The blood kept draining, and his life was slowly passing away.

"Damn it!" The Soviet soldier in the prime of life not far away secretly scolded: "If you don't be impulsive, you just won't listen, and now you will never have a chance to become an officer again." ”

He picked up his rifle, fired two indiscriminate shots at the Polish positions in the distance, and retreated.

"Sir! Sir! ”

Koval woke up as soon as he heard the explosion of the grenade.

Maevsky ran over and reported: "Sir, there was an explosion in the middle of our two campfires, probably triggering our buried grenade trap. Someone else shot at us from behind the campfire, but it was too far away to see clearly. ”

The other soldiers who were sleeping were also woken up by their comrades-in-arms, and the whole position was tense.

Koval picked up a wet towel next to him and touched his face, listening to the sporadic gunfire from nearby Polish positions. Immediately picked up the binoculars and scanned it carefully, and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that some Soviet soldiers are harassing us. ”

"Isn't it possible that they're going to attack?" Mayevsky asked.

"If they are going to attack, they will definitely not make a movement on all positions at the same time, it will not do them any good to attack!" Koval said: "Tell to go down, don't panic, continue to rest, and strengthen the vigilance on duty." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Koval continued to sleep for more than half an hour.

Suddenly, there was another shot from the top of the position. Koval woke up a little annoyed.

"Sir, the small Soviet unit is coming and shooting at us again!" Majewski reported: "If you continue like this, you won't be able to sleep well!" The Soviet troops are really treacherous and cunning, and they are all playing tricks! ”

These tricks are practical! Koval sighed in his heart.

"Sir, what are we going to do?" Mayevsky asked.

A cold towel was placed over Koval's face, and he regained his senses: this was most likely a ploy by the Soviets to disrupt the enemy, or a Soviet ploy to paralyze our troops. If our army is always on alert, we will not get a good rest, and tomorrow's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced; If our army does not turn a blind eye and relaxes its vigilance, the Soviet army will not miss the opportunity to make a fake come true. What a hassle!

"Divide the troops into groups of three, take care of each other, one group is on guard, two groups are resting, and as soon as the command on the position sounds, immediately wake up the teammates around you. Sleeping soldiers plug their ears with strips of cloth to avoid noise interference; Keep a wet towel close to you to wake up faster. Koval thought carefully for a moment, but decided to keep the soldier resting.
