Fate: The various life forms that all sentient beings have experienced in countless reincarnations in the past, meaning that everything is predestined. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The bullet fired by Vasily ended the life of the marshal of the Third Reich, Klug did not have to commit suicide by poisoning himself after 3 years, maybe Rommel would no longer have his own state funeral, and Count Klaus-Graff Schenck-von Stauffenberg might not have brought a bomb to Hitler. Of course, when Andrei Nikolayevich Plunyakov woke up from his own dormitory by the sea in Chukotka 7 years ago, all this was already doomed to not be repeated.

Lin Jun doesn't believe in fate, but some people can't seem to escape their own fate: when Lin Jun saw Vasily's group, looking at Captain Vasily's injury, he couldn't help but let out a voice in his heart: "Fate, it may really exist." ”

Twenty minutes after the capture of the bridgehead on the west side of the Lenin Bridge on the Svisloch River, Rodimtsev moved his division headquarters to the west side of the river, just in time to see a group of wounded men who had been sent down. Vasily would have lost his mind, and having understood the situation, Rodimtsev was to immediately send Comrade Lieutenant to the General Hospital of the Air Force, where the best surgeons in Minsk were located.

Ludvik and Alyosha did not go to the hospital with the wounded, but got into the "Gas" car left by Rodimtsev on the east bank of the river to the city defense headquarters, where they were anxious to know the initial causes of today's battle.

Lin Jun hadn't seen them for a few months, and like Chuikov, Lin Jun knew from Ludvik that his guess was correct - Vasily had killed a high-ranking German officer: in the basement Vasily told Ludvik what he had seen, that the target that had been shot out from the side must have been shot in the upper chest, and that the distance of more than 850 meters would probably cause the bullet to be unstable after hitting the human body, and the target was extremely unlikely to survive.

"Revenge like a dead father" - this is Alyosha's description in front of the marshal, coupled with the reckless and costless retaliation, Lin Jun can decide that the target must have been killed, and the level is very high.

Since it was such an important target, the Germans would not fail once, and even outweigh the losses (even the positions on the west side of the Lenin Bridge were lost due to the lack of troops). The offensive was stopped, and the units of the Red Army in the entire Belarusian direction were required to be prepared. The "Red Whirlwind" will be launched in three days, and there will be no mistakes in this process.

At the headquarters of the Front next door, Zhukov already knew that there were no new movements of the German troops around Minsk, so what would happen next?

Minsk was relatively quiet again for the time being, with Chuikov constantly pondering his opponent on the map, while Lin Jun pondered Vasily's sniper rifle after listening to Ludvik and Alyosha's reports.

"How many fascists did your group take out during this time?"

Alyosha shook his head, "I don't know, marshal, we didn't even go to the statistics. But Comrade Vasily should have killed more than 400 fascists in Minsk, because during this time we often used rapid-fire weapons to fight, and it is difficult to estimate, but according to my general observation and Sasha's general observation, Comrade Vasily and Comrade Ludvik eliminated more than 400 targets with sniper rifles alone. ”

With a sniper plus an observer, or two snipers, sniping and killing more than 400 Germans in two months, Vasily and Ludvik's names will soon be known again in the army, not to mention that what they do today is perhaps even more valuable. Lin Jun knew that Alyosha would not say any nonsense: for the report of the battle, Alyosha would never add fuel and vinegar, and he would never say anything that was uncertain.

"What about you and Sasha?"

"I don't know, there are hundreds of them, and the two of us work together. When I got to the Pavlov building, I just cared about it and didn't pay attention. ”

Lin Jun glanced at Ludvik because they were a group.

Ludvik took out a notebook from his jacket pocket and flipped through it, "Marshal, at least 3 tanks and 9 German military vehicles, the number of personnel killed should be more than me and Comrade Vasily." On the afternoon of October 29 alone, our group raided a German convoy of six military vehicles, and Vasily and I combined fired only 15 fires, killing about 120 Germans by rockets and machine guns. ”

Lin Jun asked for Ludvik's notebook and saw that the observer comrades had made marks in it, which should be a simple record of the daily combat process, worthy of an experienced observer: a good memory is better than a bad pen.

There are some sniper-specific markers in the notebook that Lin Jun is not familiar with, but those ordinary military icons can be understood. Let Ludwick explain the meaning of those marks, Lin Jun roughly counted them, and came to an astonishing conclusion - a team of four people, in two months, almost half of the regiment of fascists!

In addition to those ambushes, more than 70 officers were killed in sniper operations, no wonder Lin Jun remembered that in his memory, senior German commanders often had to promote non-commissioned officers to junior officers in batches of fire - Red Army snipers, which would make the Germans understand the horror of sniper operations in Minsk!

"Turn in your German rifle and notebook, and Vasily's rifle." Lin Jun "confiscated" Ludvik's belongings, "Gusev, have someone get a new set of equipment for Ludvik." ”

Because they were members of Lin Jun's guards, both Alyosha and Ludvik could bring weapons into the headquarters - Alyosha also carried an MP38 on his back, and Lin Jun didn't plan to ask for it: it was not good to advertise the German submachine gun, and besides, Alyosha was the heavy fireman in the group, and this submachine gun was just a weapon that he had in hand today. 98K, snipers on both sides are using it on the battlefield, it doesn't matter.

Cui Kefu, who was next to him, was also attracted by Lin Jun's conversation, and asked for the notebook and flipped through it, "A miracle in war." Brave, intelligent soldiers are always capable of performing unexpected miracles. Marshal, I think they all deserve to be nominated for the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union", since they are participating in the battle for the defense of Minsk, how about this nomination be given to our city defense command? ”

Lin Jun nodded: Cui Kefu is well-intentioned, because the four of them are all members of the deputy commander's guard, if Lin Jun helps them report in his personal capacity, individual comrades may have some ideas.

"Hero of the Soviet Union", this time when the defense of Minsk is over, there will be a lot of nominations reported, and the four Ludviks are qualified.

Rifles and notebooks will be propaganda tools in the future - imagine that when these things are exhibited in Moscow, the narrator says: "In the defense of Minsk, a sniper team of four comrades, including Captain Vasily, killed more than 1,000 fascists, and these two rifles killed nearly 500 fascists." -- It is very good at boosting the morale of the army.

Vasily's injury made Lin Jun a little worried, and Zhukov and Chuikov didn't have to worry about him here for the time being, so they took a car to the Air Force General Hospital. Originally, Ludvik and Alyosha were supposed to go to rest first, but they were also very concerned about Vasily and Sasha's injuries, so they went together.

When he arrived at the hospital, Vasily was still undergoing surgery, he was hit by shnel in multiple parts of his upper body, and the most troublesome thing was the head injury, especially the serious injury to his right eye. Sasha received two bullets in the abdomen, but was not life-threatening and was able to survive.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Comrade Vasily was hit by a small shrapnel in his right eye, and we have no way to perform difficult eye surgery here. If it is treated conservatively, the best way now is to remove the eyeball to prevent later infection. ”

The military doctor introduced Lin Jun, but Lin Jun disagreed: "The eye is the life of a sniper, if the right eye is removed, will the vision of the left eye be affected?" Lin Jun asked.

"It's hard to say, it's likely to be affected, and our medical technology can't guarantee this, and we haven't studied human nerves very thoroughly."

"Is there any other way to save Vasily's right eye? As long as there is a glimmer of hope, work hard. Lin Jun's attitude is already very clear.

"Deputy commander-in-chief, there is only one way, to send it to Moscow as soon as the trunk surgery is completed, there are the best ophthalmologists in the whole Soviet Union in Moscow."

"That's it." As soon as the military doctor finalized it, he immediately instructed Gusev: "Immediately ask Kobets to prepare a transport plane for the seriously wounded, and then prepare for a direct flight to Moscow." Inform the ophthalmologists in Moscow to get ready, tell them to do everything possible to save Vasily's eyes! ”

"Yes, Deputy Commander." Gusev immediately went to inform and asked the hospital to make a list of other seriously injured people who needed to be sent to Moscow.

When Vasily was pushed out of the operating room, Lin Jun stopped the cart for a while: most of Vasily's head in front of him was wrapped in thick gauze and he was in a coma.

Not far from the airport, Lin Jun personally instructed the pilots that the wounded should not fly too high.

Is this fate? The historical Vasily was also seriously injured in the eye, and it was the experts in Moscow who saved his eye, but since then he has not been a sniper again, because his body is no longer suitable. Now Vasily was seriously injured in the eye, and Lin Jun felt a little emotional when he looked at the plane in the distance. (To be continued.) )
