The further the train went east, the more scenes of the war could be seen, and when Minsk appeared in front of the train driver from afar, the sight completely shocked the comrades!

Is this still the beautiful Minsk from the postcard?! In the sparse drizzle, the sky over the whole city was covered in gray! It was not because of the gray caused by the gloomy weather, but like the effect of the smoke of the burning barren land after autumn - the whole of Minsk was burning! You can also hear the dull explosions that keep coming!

There was a young man in the fire platoon who was a native of Minsk, and he couldn't accept for a moment that the burning, ruined city in the distance was his hometown! Minsk gave the fighters a dismount, the factories were full of traces of shelling and bombing, huge craters and dilapidated factories were everywhere, troops were moving in the mud to the east of the city, and Red Army units marching in the rain were on both sides of the railway!

And not only the soldiers, Rodimtsev's train was only 2 minutes ahead of Pavlov's them, and he was also shocked by the current situation in Minsk! I have a premonition that a fierce battle awaits me!

When the train stopped at a modest freight station in the factory area, as instructed by the guide, Rodimtsev, who had not yet gotten off the train, saw the figure of the deputy commander-in-chief - on the humble platform, the deputy commander stood there watching the train enter the station, letting the rain fall on his marshal's uniform, with only a few guards behind him.

Pulling on his uniform, Rodimtsev jumped onto the platform before the train had completely stopped, ran to the marshal in a few big steps, and "snapped" a straight position: "The 87th Infantry Division has arrived in Minsk and is included in the 62nd Army." Division commander Alexander Ilyich Rodimtsev. He was very excited when the deputy commander greeted him on the platform.

Lin Jun casually returned the military salute and took a newly marked map of the enemy in Minsk from Gusev's hand, "Your troops will be ready for battle within an hour, and I have prepared a platoon of guides for you." ”

Because of the simplicity, he walked two steps, and everyone stood under a shed that could block the rain, using a few ammunition boxes as a table, and Lin Jun began to explain the combat mission given to the 87th Division.

"Marshal, I have two regiments on the first two trains." As soon as he heard that he would be ready for battle within an hour, Rodimtsev had to explain that he would have only two regiments to count on.

"That's enough." Lin Jun pointed to the center of the map: "The 147th Division is in this area, they still have less than half of the personnel left, there are only one or two hundred people left in the two regiments, and the infantry is almost exhausted." Your task is to get ahead of them and take Lenin Square before midnight, at least to build a bridgehead on it! ”

As soon as Rodimtsev heard the order of the deputy commander-in-chief, there was basically no emotion, "The 147th Division has only been up for a few days!" It's almost finished!? "I already have a spectrum in my heart.

"It's not as bad as you think, Major General Volhin's troops have established a defensive line 200 meters east of the square, and in just two days they have repelled 19 German group charges. Now that both sides are temporarily unable to attack in that area, all you have to do is firmly control the core area, and I will give you people after fighting out, don't worry about casualties. ”

"Yes, marshal, promise to complete the mission!"

"By establishing a position on the front line of the square, you can put the units of the 147th Division that have lost their combat effectiveness into your formation, and they should be borrowed temporarily. Volkhin was wounded in the morning and is still in surgery, and the command has been hit by shells, which will be commanded by the Kotov regimental commissar. Now is not the time to talk about retreat and recuperation, if necessary, you can take over the command of the rest of the troops of the 147th Division, just keep the number, I said. Headquarters, you go to the front and look for yourself, find yourself a place where you can block the shells. ”

"Those are your liaisons, the front army headquarters and the city defense headquarters are in front, I'll come from there, and I'll find the commander when I capture the square."

"Yes, Deputy Commander!"

The officers under Rodimtsev were directing the troops to get off the bus, the soldiers were grouped according to their respective formations, the officers received the latest orders from the higher-ups, and everyone in the vicinity could see that their division commander was talking with a marshal comrade, and the sharp-eyed ones could already see that it was the deputy commander-in-chief!

No one cheered the name of the deputy commander-in-chief, the soldiers were busy unloading their equipment, and the train behind stopped on the other side of the platform, and the soldiers also got off the train with loud orders.

In front of Lin Jun, Rodimtsev ordered his subordinates to call Colonel Yelin, the commander of the 4th Infantry Regiment who had just arrived, to his side, gave the battle order, and handed over the arduous task of seizing the building on the east side of Lenin Square to the 4th Regiment.

A regiment has all been dismounted, and some personnel are unloading heavy equipment - why not a regiment? Because in the 87th Infantry Division, Colonel Ye Lin's troops have the strongest ability to attack fortifications.

Pavlov and his subordinates jumped off the train with their equipment on their backs, and the rumbling artillery was mixed with dense gunfire, and fierce battles were taking place several kilometers away, which made the comrades blood boil! As soon as they had finished forming their formation, they were stopped by the company commander, Captain Nau Yingfu, who would be the sharp knives of the third battalion, and they would march towards the central district behind the first battalion.

"Squad leader, it seems to be the division commander and deputy commander-in-chief, Marshal Prenyakov." Glushchenko pointed to the platform a hundred meters away, where officers could be seen running to deliver orders.

Pavlov looked at it from afar: "It's the deputy commander-in-chief!" It's worth it to be able to see the deputy commander-in-chief. "The troops pulled out, the soldiers strode out of the station, each company was assigned a guide, but the seventh company did not, because the fire platoon had Minsk natives, who knew the direction and were familiar.

Alexandrov said as he walked: "It is said that the division commander and deputy commander fought in a trench and fought with the Spanish fascists with bayonets, and it seems to be true. ”

"Nonsense, of course it's true, otherwise how could the deputy commander come to the station to wait for the division commander in person, coming out of a trench, it doesn't matter!" Chernogorov pouted there.

It was because they had fought together in a trench that Lin Juncai came to the station to wait for Rodimtsev; But it's not just this - the front is in urgent need of troops, the two divisions that arrived last night have gone to both wings of the city, and the urban area is in urgent need of troops, and the procedure of going around a big circle is better than sending someone to hand over directly at the station, Lin Junzheng is panicking, just right!

(Book friends, the blood bat is desperately asking for a monthly pass!) The deputy commander is being shelled, so let's use the monthly ticket to bombard the blood bat, hehe.
