Koval leaned over and quietly told General Shimigvi of his plan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

General Himigvi's face became more and more solemn, he looked at the wide river and thought for a long time, and asked resolutely: "How many days do you need for this plan?" ”

"Five days!" Koval gritted his teeth and said, "At this time, there is the least amount of time, otherwise the enemy army on the opposite side will not be easily fooled!" ”

"Okay, I'll give you five days, and I'll direct the troops to cooperate with your plan. Let's go down and prepare! General Himigvi said solemnly.

"Yes, sir!" Koval raised his hand in salute.

Koval returned to the barracks and immediately called a meeting of the officers of the regiment above the company level.

"Ladies and gentlemen, General Shimigvi is very satisfied with the battle we have fought for some time and has given the task of being the vanguard of the river crossing to our independent regiment. Do you have faith? Koval said loudly.

"Yes." Scattered responses.

"Louder, do you have faith?" Koval said dissatisfied.

"Yes!" All the officers shouted together.

"Okay, let's discuss what preparations and tools need to be made to cross the river, and we need to be ready as soon as possible." Koval said gently.

Although these guys' abilities are mediocre now, Koval is still interested in cultivating them, after all, most of the generals with mediocre talents have grown up slowly in the flames of war, and there are only a few talented generals in the entire history.

"We need to build a pontoon bridge, we need wooden stakes to be driven into the bottom of the river, dry tree trunks to be used as bridge decks, ropes to tie up." Parker said quickly.

"Sir, where is our crossing? We had to measure the depth of the water there in advance and find a section of the river where the water level was shallow. Locke asked.

"It's about ten miles downstream of Daugavpils. ”

"It's too close to Daugavpils, and the enemy will come back halfway through our pontoon bridge." Parker said suspiciously.

Koval said confidently: "We will find a way to mobilize the enemy's troops, and my opportunity is to try to build a pontoon bridge at this point downstream with great fanfare・・・・・・

"Sir, are you sure so? The plan is too complicated, what if the enemy doesn't get hit? Parker said with some concern.

Koval smiled and said, "Do you think the enemy commander on the other side is as stupid as a dog or as cunning as a fox?" ”

Parker said a little embarrassed: "Looking at the deployment of the enemy army, it shouldn't be stupid as a dog, and it seems to be a little worse if you say that you are cunning like a fox." ”

"Only a person like you, sir, is as cunning as a fox!" Locke said with a smile.

"If the enemy army is as stupid as a dog, there are still many ways to defeat him by temporarily modifying the plan. If the enemy is cunning like a fox, a failed attempt is nothing. Moreover, looking at the enemy's previous deployment in the entire Lithuanian campaign, although he has some ability, he has not yet reached the realm of treacherous fox. As long as the enemy does not temporarily change its commander, our strategy is still very certain. Koval said confidently.

If the enemy army suddenly changed to a five-star general to take command like the Battle of Changping, then Koval would have no choice but to abandon this plan. However, the failure of this attempt will only be a loss to the soldiers who crossed the river, and it will never be wiped out like Zhao Kuo.

"Sir, I suddenly think we're stupid too!" Yakov said jokingly.

"OK, tonight I will take the guard platoon and the shooter squad of the 2nd and 3rd battalions to conduct a sniper operation ten miles downstream of Daugavpils. Locke, you take a battalion thirty kilometers downstream and are ready to cross the river at any time, I will reinforce an assault platoon of the third battalion to you, the artillery company will transfer the two 60mm mountain guns, and you will go to the guard platoon to get five machine guns. Koval said solemnly.

"Yes, sir." Locke stood up and raised his hand in salute.

"I have entrusted you with the most important task of our regiment, today is the thirteenth of June, you must lurk in the target area before the sixteenth, and prepare for the attack. Before our regiment launches a frontal river crossing, you must hide your position, and the task of your battalion is related to the success or failure of the entire regiment and the entire unit in the battle to cross the river. Koval said, looking into Locke's eyes.

"Understood! Sir, make sure to complete the task. Locke replied impassionedly.

"Yakov! This time, our army's plan needs the cooperation of other friendly units, and you are responsible for liaising with the commanders of each unit to coordinate and cooperate. ”

"Yes, sir."

"Parker, Jonsson, you have to hurry up and collect all kinds of supplies needed to cross the river, and make all kinds of preparations for crossing the river. Tomorrow we have to make an attempt to cross the river, and we must have everything ready by the sixteenth. We first had to tie the timber into modules that could be lifted by four or five people, and we could connect these modules directly when crossing the river, so that the time it would take us to build the pontoon bridge would be greatly shortened. Koval said.

"Yes, sir." Parker and Johnson stood and saluted.

"OK, let's work together and cross the river in one fell swoop." Koval shouted.

The officers led their troops to their own tasks, and Koval quietly arrived ten miles downstream of Daugavpils with more than fifty marksmen.

"You build a sniper position along the river two or three miles up and down, and hunt all targets on the opposite bank freely, and each shooter is given priority to the target within 100 meters of his front, unless the enemy is in the blind spot of the frontal shooter's field of vision to avoid repeating firepower. Remember what you've learned, build multiple sniper expeditions, dig safety points near sniper positions, and dodge enemy machine-gun fire and artillery coverage. Koval ordered.

"Yes, sir." The squad leader of the shooter squad replied excitedly.

The wide field of vision, and the river barrier, perfectly maintain the distance between the sniper and the enemy, there is no need to worry about the enemy on the opposite bank will suddenly rush over, such an environment is really suitable for sniper operations, and the shooters are happy one by one.

Koval found a suitable spot on a small grassy hill more than a hundred meters from the riverbank, and he lay behind the top of the small mound.

It is a great place to have a wide view of the situation of hundreds of meters of the case! Koval secretly admired in his heart.

Of course, if there is a sniper on the opposite side, Koval will definitely not choose such a position that is very conspicuous in the sense of a master. However, now it is against the ordinary troops on the opposite side, and there are fifty snipers at the same time, so this little risk is acceptable.

"Mayevsky, find some rocks, like this!" Koval found a few rocks from nearby and piled them on top of the mound to make a low wall.

Koval lay behind the stone, his body blocked by the stone and the weeds on it, and the barrel of the gun protruded through the gap left by the stone. (To be continued.) )
