I looked around and saw that the German lieutenant, who knew Russian, was standing a few meters away, focusing in the direction of the pit, watching Captain Rai carry out his orders. I took a step forward and lowered my voice and asked Tolman, "Aren't you in Army Group Center?" How did he transfer to Leningrad, and he also received the rank of colonel. ”

Tolman tilted his head and replied: "After the last escape in Volokolamsk, I returned to the army. Due to the large attrition of officers in the unit during the battle, I, as a commander with extensive combat experience, was directly appointed chief of staff of a regiment and promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel. In the battle at the end of February this year, my regiment participated in the battle to encircle and annihilate the 20th Group Army, and in order to block the frantic breakthrough of your army, the regiment commander personally went into battle and brought the staff officers and signal troops of the regiment headquarters into battle. Although the 20th Army was completely annihilated in the last round, the regimental headquarters suffered all casualties and the regiment commander was killed. As soon as the regiment was re-replenished, I was appointed as the new regimental commander and promoted to colonel. ”

Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, there are his troops in the 20th Army under the city of Moscow, and he is still the one who surrounded and annihilated the 2nd Assault Army near Lyuban today. He's really Vlasov's nemesis!

At this time, he asked curiously: "I remember that a few months ago, you were a lieutenant colonel, why are you now a major again?" ”

If a colleague asks this question, I can explain the reason in detail, but I can't tell the truth about an enemy officer, even if it is an officer with whom I have some friendship. I was afraid that he would find out the truth that I had been demoted because I had ordered the massacre of German soldiers, so he shot me in a fit of rage. He could only answer vaguely: "Because I made a mistake when commanding the troops to fight, I was demoted by my superiors." ”

Tolman sighed, then asked, "What's next for you?" ”

What's the plan? Of course, I hope you'll release me. However, this can only be imagined, even if Tolman is a colonel, he would not dare to blatantly release an enemy officer in front of so many of his subordinates, in which case he would lose his future at least and worry about his life. I was about to speak, when suddenly a dense burst of gunfire rang out, which could only be achieved by the simultaneous firing of rifles, submachine guns, and even machine guns. I was startled by the sudden sound of gunfire and hurriedly looked in the direction from which the sound came, where the prisoners of war had already fallen to the ground, and the soldiers were carrying their bodies into the dirt pit.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Tolman hurriedly shouted to the officer not far away, "Lieutenant, come here." ”

The lieutenant trotted over, saluted him, and asked respectfully, "Mr. Colonel, what are your orders?" ”

Tolman pointed to me and said, "Lieutenant, you should send this major to the prisoner of war camp at once, and let the prisoner of war camp give her the care she deserves." Remember, on the way to the POW camp, make sure to make sure of her safety. ”

The lieutenant snapped a salute and replied loudly: "Yes, Mr. Colonel!" ”

After instructing the lieutenant, Tolman said to me, "I can only help you get here, take care!" There will be a period later. He waved at me, then patted the driver on the shoulder and motioned for him to drive.

After Tolman's convoy left, the German lieutenant called Rai over and ordered him with a blank face: "Captain, I order you to take two men and send this female officer to the prisoner of war camp, and tell the commander of the prisoner of war camp to give her the treatment she deserves." Also, make sure she is safe on the road, and no one can hurt her or let her escape. Do you understand? ”

"Understood, Mr. Lieutenant." Rai said flatteringly, "I will definitely complete the task you have set me successfully." ”

Rai took me to a captured jeep and shouted to a group of nearby soldiers, "Slavin, Lek, you two come here." ”

As he shouted, two young soldiers immediately ran over, one empty-handed and the other with a Soviet-style rifle, and they stood still in front of Rai and asked with a big grin: "Captain, what do you call us?" ”

Rai pointed at me and said, "On the orders of the lieutenant, send this female major to the prisoner of war camp." Slavin, you go to drive; Leke, you sit in the back row and watch her. Get in! With that, he shoved me the back and let me get into the car.

I gave him a hard look, pulled open the back door and got into the car. Leke came up with his rifle and sat down next to me. Rai went to open the front door and sat in the passenger seat.

Once everyone was seated, Slavin stepped on the accelerator and the open-top jeep drove along the improvised forest road.

I didn't drive far before I saw a long line of prisoners of war in front, obviously the same group that had just been taken away by the soldiers of the Eastern Battalion. Slavin honked his horn a few times, and the soldiers in charge of escorting us saw our car and hurriedly drove the prisoners to the side of the road to make way for us. As the car passed by them, they bowed their heads and saluted Rai on the car.

Passing the line of prisoners of war, the car drove forward for a few more minutes. Rai suddenly shouted, "Slavin, stop the car." Slavin didn't say anything, immediately pulled over to the side of the road and turned off the engine.

Layla opened the car door and got out of the car, then beckoned to Leke, who was sitting next to me: "Leke, bring her down." Leke didn't open the door, jumped out of the car, took two steps back, pointed the gun at me, and shouted in a low voice: "You, get out of the car quickly!" ”

I looked around, and there was not even a single ghost in sight except for the woods and the woods, not to mention the prisoner of war camp, except for the four of us. I don't know why they parked here, but they were pointed at gunpoint by others, so they could only obediently obey people's orders.

Rai walked deeper into the forest, and Lec held my gun to my back and drove me after Rai.

After walking about two or three hundred meters, from where we were, there was no jeep parked on the side of the road. At this time, Rai suddenly stopped and said to Lek: "Lek, this environment is good, let's be here." ”

When I heard him say that, I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart, thinking that he wasn't going to shoot me here, right? At this moment, I suddenly felt someone pull me backwards, and I was not prepared, and under the guidance of this force, my body fell backwards and fell heavily to the ground. Almost as soon as I fell to the ground, my hands were grabbed and crushed to death.

Before I could come to my senses, Rai, who had been standing still, pounced on me like a hungry wolf, pressed her knees against my calves, and began to undress herself. Looking at the look of madness and terrible desire on his distorted face, I suddenly understood that he had brought me to this remote place not to shoot me, but to rape me.

I began to struggle desperately, trying to get my legs out from under his knees. Yet my hands were firmly held down by the strong Leke, and my legs were pressed against Rai's knees, and this futile struggle only provoked him to greater desire.

After Rai stripped herself naked, she looked up to the sky and smiled, and said triumphantly: "Female major, when I was in Moscow, although I couldn't get you, you definitely can't escape the palm of my hand today. With that, he stretched out his big stinky mouth.

I spat on it, right in his face. He straightened up, wiped the spit from his face with the back of his hand, sneered, and slapped me violently, making me look in the eye. Then he started tearing my clothes and picking at my pants. As soon as I resisted, he would be slapped in the face.

Seeing that the resistance was ineffective, and I was about to give in, suddenly a crisp gunshot rang out, and then the force of my hands loosened, and Leke fell heavily beside me. Before I could figure out what was going on, I heard a second gunshot, Rai was shot in the right shoulder, and as soon as he covered the wound with his hand, a figure rushed past me and threw him to the ground, and the two of them scuffled together.

I sat up and saw that it was a middle-aged man dressed in civilian clothes who was scuffling with Rai, and although Rai was wounded, he said he had the upper hand in the fight. In a few moments, he pressed the man under him and choked the other man's throat tightly.

I thought I should go and help my benefactor, and when I looked left and right, and saw that Leke's rifle was right next to me, I hurriedly grabbed it, grasped the barrel with both hands, rushed over with a lunge, and smashed it with all my might. There was a loud bang, the butt of the rifle was broken, and Rai's body stiffened for a moment, and then fell to the side.

Seeing that the thing was still straight and stiff underneath him, I went up and kicked it with my foot, and then I felt angry, and stepped on the bloody and bloody stuff again, and crushed it a few times with my toes.

After dealing with Rai, I turned my attention to the man who saved me. He sat up from the ground, covered his throat with his hands, and coughed violently. Looking at the thick beard on his upper lip and his old-fashioned face, I felt as if I had seen it somewhere before.

I threw the broken rifle aside and stepped forward to help him up, asking with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

The bearded man, with my help, stood up and replied to me: "Report to Comrade Commander, I have nothing to do. ”

When I heard him call me a commander, I knew that he must have been a soldier, so I asked, "Are you also a soldier?" Which troop? ”

"Report to Comrade Commander," he may have seen that my rank was relatively high, and almost every word he said, he had to say report, "I am a partisan of Sotnikov." I was on a reconnaissance mission around here, and when I saw a few Germans taking you here, I quietly followed, trying to see if I could find a chance to rescue you. ”

"It turns out that you succeeded, thank you, comrade of the partisans." As I spoke, I extended my hand to him in a friendly manner and asked, "I wonder what I should call you?" ”

"Vaskov. Partisan Vaskov. ”

Oh my God, when I heard the name, I immediately remembered who this person was in front of me. He was the first person I knew when I crossed over to this world, the warrant officer Vaskov of the 171 Railway Command Station. However, in order to avoid misidentifying the wrong person, I tentatively asked, "Can I ask your patronymic and your real name?" ”

Vaskov replied very cheerfully: "Fidit Evgravich Vaskov." ”

After confirming his identity, I couldn't help but be a little excited, and couldn't help but call out the nickname given to him by the girls of the anti-aircraft machine gun platoon: "Uncle warrant officer, is that you?" ”

"Uncle warrant officer?!" Hearing this long-lost nickname, he couldn't help but shudder, looked at me with puzzled eyes and asked, "Comrade commander, do you know me?" ”

I went up and grabbed his hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "Fidotte, you have forgotten that you told me and Genia that you are our warrant officer, that you are our own brother, and that we should call you Fija like your mother." ”

Hearing me say this, Vaskov was stunned for a moment, and then tried to ask: "Are you Leda?" ”

"Yes, Uncle warrant officer, you finally recognize me."

Vaskov couldn't control himself any longer, tears were streaming down his cheeks, and he hugged me excitedly and said, "Great, dear Leda, I always thought you were sacrificed. I didn't expect to see you, I'm so happy. ”

My nose was also sour, but I tried to control my emotions, and after hugging Vaskov for a while, I let go of him and said, "Uncle warrant officer, there are Germans nearby, let's get out of here first, find a safe place and catch up." ”

Vaskov wiped tears from his face, nodded, and said, "Follow me." "Pull me and run deep into the forest.
