While the Lithuanians and the Soviet troops were fighting bitterly, Jacob led two reorganized battalions of Polish troops to finally reach the vicinity of Mark Melgay. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The movement of more than a thousand people on the march was very large, and it was immediately discovered by the soldiers sent by Koval to keep on guard.

When the vigilant soldiers saw so many people and still holding the flag of the Polish troops, they did not dare to delay, and immediately quietly ran back to the camp to report.

"Sir, there is a procession of thousands of men to the southeast, dressed in the uniform of Tsarist Russia, but carrying the red and white Polish flag. They're only three kilometers away from us now. ”

Koval stood up in surprise, and when he thought about it, the only Polish troops in Tsarist uniforms were those militias in Vilnius who had been reorganized.

"All the troops on alert, Landa, take the soldiers of your squad with me." Koval said.

"Yes, sir."

Koval quickly rushed to the pickup point with the soldiers of the assault squad, and sure enough, he saw a troop advancing.

Koval stood on the edge of the tree and looked carefully, sure enough, it was the Vilnius militia, very familiar, some of whom Koval had seen at General Vilko's banquet.

Koval snorted at the guarded soldiers, and he immediately shouted in Polish: "Stop, report the number of your troops." ”

The advancing army slowly came to a halt, and several officers rushed to the front.

"We are the troops of the separate regiment of the Lithuanian infantry division, I am their deputy commander Jacob, who are you?" A middle-aged officer shouted.

Koval listened to the accent on the other side, knew they were Polish, and nodded to the vigilant soldier.

"We are units of the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the Signaling Infantry Division of the Polish Army."

"We have received an order from General Shimigvi to reinforce you, and ask your officers to come and consult." The middle-aged officer opposite said.

After confirming that it was correct, Koval stood up with his soldiers, walked over and said, "I am Victor Koval, the battalion commander of this unit. ”

The middle-aged officer asked, "Can I see your officer ID?" ”

Because he had to transfer at any time, Koval kept his military ID card with him, so he immediately took it out and handed it over.

The middle-aged officer opened it carefully, and sure enough, it was clearly written by Major Viktor Koval of the Polish Army.

He immediately raised his hand and saluted a standard military salute: "Report to the commander, Jacob, deputy commander of the Independent Regiment of the Lithuanian Infantry Division, reports to you, this is my military ID." ”

Koval returned the salute, took it and looked at it, which read Polish Army Major Jacob, closed his hand casually and said: "Major Jacob, we are not subordinate to each other, I am not your commander."

"Report to the commander, Brigadier General Shimigvi has appointed you as the commander of the separate regiment of the Lithuanian infantry division, this is the appointment document." Jacob said.

Koval took the document and looked at it, and sure enough, it said that Viktor Koval had been promoted to acting commander of the Independent Regiment of the Lithuanian Infantry Division, and that there was also a document that incorporated Koval's battalion into the Independent Regiment.

Jacob took out the letter from General Himigvi and Bishop Larry, and Koval opened it, with a few lines written on it. After reading the letter, Koval finally understood everything: General Shimigvi agreed to Koval's plan and gave him two more battalions.

Officers from the two reorganized battalions also came to meet Koval, who was very happy to have been their commander after having fought together in Vilnius. Koval became the commander of the Independent Regiment and took over the command of the Separate Regiment.

"Now, let the army camp on the spot!" Koval ordered.

"Sir, don't the army use rounds?" Jacob said in surprise.

"Set up camp on the spot." Koval said categorically.

"Yes, sir." The officers below replied one after another.

Koval saw that all of his officers were obeying his orders, and the worries in his heart vanished.

"You have come at the right time, I happen to have a big plan, to capture Makmergay and take the equipment stored in it by the Lithuanians. You guys are coming. That's a big credit, and you're very lucky! Koval smiled.

Ivan is in the center of the town, deploying the town's defenses.

"Sir, another stronghold in Dongcheng District has been lost." An officer came to report.

I don't know how many times Ivan's hearing such news is about to go numb.

The officer drew a big cross in a place on the map, and the crosses on the whole map were constantly increasing, slowly getting bigger and bigger like a crescent moon.

"The troops are shrinking towards the center of the town, and we need to concentrate our forces and hold the center of the town and the dock area. If the assistant troops have not arrived this evening, we will start the retreat from the pier. Ivan said, staring at the map.

If the troops are scattered throughout the city, after the enemy enters the center of the town, they will be completely divided by the enemy, and there will be no way to retreat.

"Yes, sir."

As the Soviet forces began to shrink their lines, the density of fire increased considerably, and the fighting became more intense, with almost every house being fiercely contested.

The Soviet troops seized a large number of light and heavy machine guns in the warehouses of the town, and they used all kinds of light and heavy machine guns to firmly block the entrances to the houses, such as doors and windows, turning the entire defense line into a shrunken hedgehog.
