Lin Jun knew how much the Ivanov in front of him had contributed to the defensive operation of Zhang Gufeng a few days ago, if it wasn't for his proposal to set up a large-density minefield in front of the position, this side would have lost its position like Shacaofeng, and the Soviet troops defending the position would also be wiped out in the night attack of the Japanese army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info saw that Ivanov's grade is not small, it should be thirty, but he is still a platoon commander with the rank of captain (the platoon commander in the Soviet Union is generally the rank of second lieutenant, and a small number are lieutenants, and only in rare cases are held by captains: for example, some special services, or this soldier is more "special", of course, Ivanov should have both reasons. This platoon commander must not be an ordinary fellow.

"Being a platoon commander is really wronged. Comrade Berzarin, I think Comrade Ivanov is competent for the job of commander of an engineer company, what do you think? "Lin Jun likes this guy in front of him, such a soldier on the battlefield is a strong guarantee for the combat effectiveness of the troops.

"Comrade Andrey, I think it's appropriate to stop. After a while, I will ask people to go to the border guard to dig people, but I am afraid that the comrades over there will not let them go, hehe. "This kind of soldier is liked by any chief.

"Let's just say that it was my proposal, and I guess the comrades over there will give some face."

Lin Jun motioned to Fekochinov, who handed Lin Jun a small red box. As soon as they saw Lin Jun's movements, everyone on the side unanimously stood upright: they knew that what was about to happen required them to do this.

"Comrade Ivanov, in view of your outstanding contribution to holding your positions and your heroic actions in this battle, on behalf of Comrade Stalin and the commander of the Special Army Group of the Red Banner in the Far East, Marshal Blyukher, I award you the Order of the Red Star."

Lin Jun solemnly handed over the locket containing the medal in his hand to Ivanov, Ivanov hurriedly took it with both hands, and saluted the officer in front of him, he was a little at a loss, and he was so excited that he was speechless.

Ivanov never imagined that he would receive the Order of the Red Star, which his small engineer platoon commander could not have imagined (there were relatively few types of medals in the Soviet army before the war, and the number of awards was not large. And now I got one like this, and I don't even need to go through the report and approval.

"Serve the USSR!" Ivanov finally remembered what he should say, which he had learned when he attended the commendation meeting of the garrison before.

"Originally, it had to be submitted for approval, and I think it would be better to award you a medal in the auditorium. Now that I am in the war, since I have prepared a medal here, there is no need for those cumbersome steps, and your certificate Comrade Belzarin will reissue it for you later. Lin Jun said after returning the salute. The medal was specially brought by Lin Jun from Blyukhel before departure, and Comrade Marshal also agreed to award medals to meritorious servicemen on the battlefield, although this is a bit of a violation of the regulations on the awarding of medals, but there are supplementary clauses for special treatment in special circumstances, and Comrade Andrei personally went out to fight is the most "special" situation, and Stalin also gave Lin Jun such a right.

"Comrade Ivanov, put on the medal so that we can see what the hero looks like."

An embarrassing scene arose, our comrade engineer platoon commander did not know how to wear it after taking out the Order of the Red Star. He can't be blamed for this, he can't drill a hole in his military uniform in front of multiple senior officers.

"Hehe, drilling holes in military uniforms in order to wear medals is not sabotage." Berzarin knew what this Ivanov was trying to write.

Hearing the words of the division commander, Ivanov was in the right chest position of his military uniform (this is the place where the Order of the Red Star is worn, not the left chest. Drilled a hole and put on that shining medal.

"I hope that in the future, your uniform will be full of holes, of course I don't want it to be holes left by bullets." Lin Jun's congratulatory message is very interesting, because there are several sets of his own military uniforms with several holes in the chest (there are many medals in the Soviet Union that need to be drilled into the clothes when they are worn, because they are fixed by screws and backrests, and of course some medals and medals are fastened with pins, but relatively speaking, the former way is more secure. Therefore, in practice, Soviet officers and soldiers often wore their own medals in wartime -- habits are one aspect, and not worrying about losing them is another, and if they were fixed in the ordinary way of state medals, this would basically not work. ）

Some people say that it is necessary to set an example for the soldiers in battle, a pacesetter to catch up, and Ivanov in front of him is the best candidate - not only brave in battle, but also use his brains in battle, Lin Jun is such an example. He was awarded the medal not for his greatest merit, but for the needs of the war. Of course, Lin Jun would not let other meritorious soldiers be wronged, he had already discussed with some officers on the way here, and he should carefully count the people who had made meritorious contributions in the battle, and give them appropriate rewards. It's just that this battle has just begun, and this matter of rewarding meritorious deeds still needs to be moved back. In fact, he also had an idea: after the battle here is over, he proposed to the Central Executive Committee to set up a "medal for the participants of the Battle of Lake Hassan", so that everyone who participated in this battle will receive the glory they deserve.

Why the "Medal for Participants in the Battle of Lake Hassan" and not the "Medal for the Battle of Lake Hassan"? Because in the concept it's a "conflict", not a "battle"!

After awarding the medal to Ivanov, Lin Jun and his entourage went to the joint headquarters of the front on a small plateau two kilometers behind the junction of the two heights, which was also the headquarters of Berzarin.

The operation of two different units needed to be coordinated, and the infantry and aviation also needed to be coordinated, and the result was such a joint command of the front, with Berzarin as the commander. It stands to reason that Zhanggufeng or Shacaofeng is the best place to set up a headquarters, but the Soviets cannot push the front forward right now to create a sufficient safe distance for the headquarters at the top of the hill - this is easy to do militarily, and a surprise attack can solve the problem, but politically it is inevitably in unnecessary passivity. Therefore, the Soviet army retreated and set up its headquarters on this small high ground forty or fifty meters above the vicinity, and the location here was also acceptable.

Before leaving Zhang Gufeng, one of Berzarin's staff officers pulled Ivanov aside and told him who had given him the medal today.

"Today is to confuse the observation post of the Japanese army, so Comrade Chief arrived at the front line in makeup. It is not your average chief who has awarded you the medal, he is a member of the Military Council, Comrade Andrei Nikolayevich Prenyakov. ”

、、、、、、

Lin Jun's wish to see the corpses of the Japanese soldiers was about to come true, and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers that could still be pieced together on the two positions had been transported to the back, and the place where they were temporarily stacked was only a few hundred meters away from the temporary headquarters, and the captured Japanese weapons and ammunition were still stacked nearby.

After yesterday's fierce air raids and artillery bombardment, the Soviet infantry rushing to Shacao Peak under the lead of tanks basically encountered no resistance from the Japanese army, only sporadic exchanges of fire. At that time, the entire position was plowed by bombs and shells, and although the fire caused by the solidification ****** was much smaller, there were still many places still burning, and the position was scorched, and the fortifications built by the Japanese army basically ceased to exist, and there were shattered and charred human remains everywhere. The assault force took the position at the cost of only one man killed and many wounded.

Lin Jun saw that there were still humanoid Japanese corpses that were not buried, but wrapped in canvas, and lime was sprinkled inside to prevent decay. The purpose of these measures Lin Jun understood was to exchange corpses between the two sides in the future: in the early stage of the battle for position, the Soviet army also had the remains of some martyrs who died in the hands of the Japanese army.

"Comrade Andrei, the comrades of the 40th Division also captured several Japanese prisoners during the attack." Belzarin saw that Lin Jun was looking around at the pile of corpses, and regardless of the unpleasant smell, he hoped that the young "prince" could change places, so as not to lose his appetite here.

"Oh, let's go." As soon as Lin Jun heard that there were Japanese prisoners, he immediately came to his senses. It is a new thing to be able to catch Japanese prisoners, you must know that at that time, it was not difficult to kill a hundred small Japanese, but it was very difficult to catch one alive.

The makeshift field hospital was just behind the high ground, and the few captured Japanese soldiers were wounded. This time the capture of prisoners was not a deliberate act of the Soviet army, but when cleaning the battlefield, it was found that there were 5 Japanese soldiers who still had a tone, which was basically the kind that lacked arms and legs and had no ability to resist. Only one guy was stunned by the bomb, half buried in the soil kicked up by the explosion, and was not suffocated, and escaped the overwhelming bombardment and shelling, and was captured by the Soviets almost unscathed.

There were basically no casualties among the Soviet troops in this assault, and the attacking troops were transferred from the rear, plus some officers hoped to get some useful information from the mouths of the prisoners to have such a few prisoners, or it would have been solved long ago if they didn't clean up the battlefield (if it is a unit that has been fighting for a period of time, and there are comrades and friends around you who have been sacrificed, the probability of leaving prisoners during the attack is basically zero.) ）。

After entering the hospital, the group learned that two guys had not been rescued, and two of them had died and refused to cooperate with the treatment, which was also expected by Lin Jun, but it only made Comrade Belzarin feel a little disgraced.

Lin Jun walked to the side of the only guy who was alive, it was the one who was stunned, a young man in his 20s, only a few injuries that were not very serious, they had been treated, and now he was lying on the hospital bed, his feet and hands were handcuffed to the bed frame, and his body had changed into hospital clothes, it seemed that the hospital had treated him well. Now he was looking at the Soviet officers in front of him with some horror.

Seeing Lin Jun staring at the handcuffs, the hospital leader on the side hurriedly introduced that this was to prevent this guy from committing suicide.

"Go and get his uniforms and belongings."

Hearing Lin Jun's words, someone immediately took this guy's military uniform and documents.

Carefully checked the military uniform and documents, "Open the handcuffs, he won't kill himself, this is a puppet officer." ”

Lin Jun sat on the chair that Snornick had moved, holding the man's military ID card in his hand.

"Second Lieutenant Liu Chunhua, where is your hometown?"

Lin Jun's words surprised Liu Chunhua, who had just sat up. He was the platoon leader of the second platoon of Eiji Kazama's reinforced motley company, and when he woke up this morning, he found that he had become a prisoner, and he was terrified to death. It was a family arrangement for him to become an officer in the puppet Manchurian army, to put it bluntly, he was born in a mixed background, and his old man and elders were all old and young remnants of the former Qing Dynasty, and to put it bluntly, he was still happy that Pu Yi was the emperor. But he had some higher education and knew some advanced ideas, but he didn't have a good way out in these years, so he went to the army through his family connections. Liu Chunhua should be said to be not a die-hard traitor, that is, an opportunist, and after being captured, he was still worried about whether he could save his life.

Now a Soviet officer speaks fluent Chinese to himself, even better than he speaks, is there anything more surprising in this world, which also gives him hope to live.

"Sir, I'm a native of Mudanjiang City, a newly established province in Manchuria, and I'm 、、、、、、、 to the army."

"Alright, no need to talk nonsense!" Lin Jun interrupted Liu Chunhua's endless show of innocence, "Naturally, someone will identify what you said, so you don't need to tell me." Take care of your injuries and cooperate with our investigation, and I promise you will survive well. ”

Lin Jun didn't have time to pay attention to this guy, so he got up and said to Belzarin: "Send him to the special rebellion department in the rear, maybe it will be of some use to us." ”

Lin Jun was just about to leave, and when he thought of something, he turned around again and said, "Liu Chunhua, remember, it's better to live than anything else, don't die for the Japanese!" Regardless of whether this guy understood or not, Lin Jun went to see the situation of the wounded of the Soviet army surrounded by others.

In fact, Lin Jun had no other thoughts about this puppet ensign, and felt that this person must want to live, so it might have some value, and even provide some information for the Soviet army in the future. Of course, everything will naturally be handled by experts from the counter-terrorism department, and there is no need to care about this yourself.

Lin Jun's next place to look was stacked with captured Japanese weapons. Piles of Japanese weapons were piled up in front of him, basically sorted, but most of them were dilapidated.

There were a few things that made Lin Jun a little interested, and that was a pile of captured Japanese sabers. A few entourages knew that their chief liked cold weapons, so they picked up a few Japanese sabers and handed them to Lin Jun one by one.

"It's a pity, it's all iron rods." Except for his own attaché, everyone else was a little confused by Lin Jun's "iron rod". Landscoch introduced to the officers that the "iron rod" was the name of the Japanese army, that is, the name for those mechanisms, not the hand-forged Japanese sabers. Soviet officers did not yet know that there was such a way.

"The chief has a deep study of cold weapons, especially the sabers of various countries, and he also has some collections, so the sabers here are all iron rods, and there are no good knives." At Lin Jun's suggestion, Landskochi, who had the most say in cold weapons, gave a lesson in Japanese sabre knowledge to Soviet officers who only knew tank artillery - in fact, a large part of this knowledge was told to him by Lin Jun in his spare time.

Lin Jun also studied Japanese swords, and in his previous life, he collected a few of them, either from his grandfather and grandfather, or from his father's heavy purchase.

"The saber of the Japanese army is similar to their traditional long knife, and the general system is 101 centimeters with a total length of 101 centimeters. The handle of the officer's knife is wrapped in fine-grained white mackerel skin, 26 cm long, and is wrapped with ribbon braided flowers. The handle of the knife is used to fix the blade with a "bamboo nail" near the handguard. The guard is copper-plated, and there are two types: hollow and non-hollowed. The blade is close to the handguard with a copper clamp that is unique to Japanese swords, and traditional Japanese swords are carefully forged by hand, and officer swords are mechanically handmade. From 35 onwards, non-commissioned officers of the Japanese army were also issued with sabers that were completely mechanical, called 95-style sabers. The handle of the non-commissioned officer's saber is modeled after the pattern of the handle of the officer's saber (such as cherry blossoms and ribbon entanglements) and is pressed with copper or aluminum. In addition, the blade of the non-commissioned officer's saber has a blood groove, whereas in general, the officer's saber does not have a blood groove. ”

When it comes to cold weapons, this Cossack is energetic, "The high-quality Japanese saber is still very collectible, and the Japanese army regards its saber as important as its own life, so the capture of the Japanese saber is also a very important capture." Some mid- and high-ranking Japanese generals not only possessed a saber, but also carried different sabers on different occasions. The Japanese army has a more interesting point, that is, officers are allowed to wear their own knives that conform to the style of the saber, so the appearance and specifications of the saber will also have some small changes, and some low-level officers carry sabers even better than a general's, of course, this quality is only the collection value and the Japanese own evaluation criteria, because these officers may have the title of nobility, and the ancestors have excellent quality handmade knives. ”

"The chief has always hoped to have a few good Japanese knives in his collection, but unfortunately they are all non-commissioned officers' knives here, which are of little value, and at most they have a commemorative value."

Landscoch picked up a saber that had been blackened by the fire and twisted by the bomb and said, "This is an officer's saber, but even the best Japanese saber can't withstand our bombs, it's a pity." ”

Landscochi's pun caused a burst of laughter among the officers: even the best saber could not stop the three-dimensional attack of tanks, artillerymen, and aircraft, and the tactics of the Japanese army were outdated.

Just now the Cossack lieutenant made the officers know something that is difficult to understand, and they also decided something: Comrade Andrei likes cold weapons! (It's not surprising that officers have a hobby of collecting, General Xu Da of our army likes to collect Japanese sabers, and Lin Jun just has the same hobby.) ）

Of course, in the USSR, ordinary officers did not dare to blatantly collect captured weapons, but who was Comrade Andrei ?! As long as he likes, it is no problem to move captured enemy tanks home, not to mention small sabers - "The next time I exchange fire with Little Japan, I must gather all the captured sabers of Little Japan." "The officers all thought.

"Landscoch, what you said just now seems to have gone a little too far." Lin Jun joked with his subordinates.

"Hey, hey." The Cossack smirked - he knew what the chief liked.
