297 Saving lives
Let's take our eyes off Sukhoi for the time being, as an important supporting character in this book, he is not in danger of receiving a bento for the time being. Because the always correct and great comrade of the immortals will soon go to his rescue.
Li Xiaofeng's departure from Sevastopol was very secretive, and one night, just after presiding over a military meeting of the main officers of the Black Sea Fleet, this guy took a few entourages dressed in disguise and set out on the road.
It's not that this thing is mysterious, it's that he has to be mysterious. In accordance with the instructions of the Central Committee, after dealing with the affairs of the Black Sea Fleet, he should immediately return to Petrograd. The central leaders, including Master Mentor and Sverdlov, were already a little dissatisfied with this mess, and felt that if they allowed this emperor to do whatever he wanted, they might cause some big trouble.
Li Xiaofeng has no opinion on leaving Crimea, because he didn't want to come in the first place, and it was completely just right to cause these troubles. Petrograd had a lot of bigger and more important things to deal with, and he didn't know what the situation was like in Finland, and he was glad to go back as soon as possible.
The reason why he wanted to be so mysterious was that he was not ready to return to Petrograd from Kharkov to Petrograd according to the orders of the central authorities. On the way to Kharkov, he has already walked through Kharkov, and it is not interesting to go again. Moreover, according to the gossip he had learned, Voroshilov and Steel were not honest and had made a lot of petty moves, and if nothing else, the old officers sent by Trotsky would probably have a hard time.
When a certain immortal is employing people, he can take the opportunity to dig the corner of Lao Tuo's wall, and don't ask to get Tukhachevsky to fight like this. It's okay to get a few calves to support the field.
Not to mention. While harvesting talents. You can also collect a little black material about Voroshilov, I have long heard that this rebel is a well-known careless person's life, and if you collect a little information early, even if you can't defeat him, it will be useful to fight in the future.
Of course, in order to do all this, it must be kept secret. The vigilance of Stalin and that thing was not ordinarily high, and if you went to the open, you would not see anything. Otherwise, that guy has been tossing in Ukraine for more than half a month, and there will not be a little wind that will not reach Petrograd.
"Take Dnepropetrovsk, then transfer to Slavyansk, and if possible, I would like to see how the White Army is doing." Li Xiaofeng whispered to a few entourage.
In fact, these words were only said to one person, and that was Ivan. Stepanovich. Isakov, the name of this duke should have been heard of by comrades, Marshal of the Soviet Navy, Deputy Commissar of the First Navy, important assistant to Kuznetsov. Naval expert in technology. He received the degree of academician of the Academy of Communications of the USSR Academy of Sciences.
However, in 1918, this bull man was only a K-6 class co-captain. One more word here. On December 16, 1917, the Soviet government had ordered the abolition of the military rank system.
During the period from the founding of the Red Army on February 23, 1918 to September 22, 1935, when the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR reinstated the military rank system in order to regularize the army, the Soviet Union did not implement a military rank system, but a military service hierarchy system.
In the Red Army at that time, there was no hierarchy of privates, and they were called Red Army soldiers or Red Navy sailors. Starting from the squad leader and deputy squad leader, all the way to the commander of the front army or the commander-in-chief of the navy and air force, there are 14 grades from K-1 to K-14. For example, the deputy squad leader and squad leader are K-1, and the commander of the front army is K-14.
And Isakov's K-6 level is equivalent to a cadre at the deputy battalion level, which is converted into the navy, that is, the deputy commander of a destroyer or the captain of a gunboat or torpedo boat. It should be said that this level is not high, but the level is not high, and it is not important to think that it is not high. At least Eberhardt and Boris were full of attention to this Isakov, and the reason why they sent him back to Petrograd with a certain immortal was not to let this kid learn to hold his thighs, but to send him to Petrograd to recruit sailors.
As mentioned earlier, the Black Sea Fleet has been reorganized and dismantled, and there are quite a few gaps. Although after a certain immortal demolished the east wall and repaired the west wall, it was so temporarily fooled. But in the long term, if the combat effectiveness of the Black Sea Fleet is to be truly restored, the traditions of the Navy will be maintained, and personnel will inevitably be replenished.
Li Xiaofeng did not agree to recruit new soldiers in Ukraine and Crimea, and in desperation, Eberhardt could only send Isakov all the way to Petrograd and Moscow to recruit people. It happened that a certain immortal was going back, so they went along the way.
Speaking of which, Isakov was also not a native officer of the Black Sea Fleet, he served in the Baltic Fleet until the October Revolution, serving with the rank of warrant officer on the destroyer Izyaslav.
In February 1918, when Germany forced the Bolsheviks to sign the Brest Pact, launched a full-front assault and took the Gulf of Riga. The Baltic Fleet, which was stationed in the Gulf of Riga and Helsinki at that time, was in danger of being captured by the Germans. On the orders of Lenin, the famous Great Retreat on the Ice was carried out.
The main forces of the Baltic Fleet, stationed in the Gulf of Riga and Helsinki, forcibly broke through the frozen sea and withdrew to Kronstadt. Among them, the destroyer Izyaslav, to which Isakov belonged, was involved in this famous operation. Later, because of his outstanding performance, he was promoted to assistant commander of the Izyaslav.
Besides, although the famous Great Retreat on the Ice temporarily saved the Baltic Fleet from the danger of being captured by the Germans, after a forced ice-breaking voyage, the warships involved in the operation were damaged to varying degrees. So much so that after arriving in Kronstadt, the main forces of the Black Sea Fleet had only two battleships, a cruiser and part of the destroyers that could normally go to sea to patrol and fight.
Because of this, a considerable part of the excellent Baltic officers and sailors were transferred to land to fight the White Army as naval infantry. And as the scale of the Soviet Civil War grew, this trend became more and more apparent.
So much so that in 1919, when Yudenich suddenly attacked and tried to seize Petrograd, the performance of the Baltic Fleet was quite clumsy, and even the White Army infiltrated and mutinied, and the important battery of Kronstadt was occupied by the rebel sailors for a time.
Isakov was one of the luckier ones, not being sent to serve as an infantry member in the navy, but remaining in the navy. The Battle of Petrograd in 1919. He once participated in and made meritorious contributions.
Of course. With the addition of a certain immortal, his historical trajectory changed, and he was transferred from the Baltic Fleet to the Black Sea Fleet, serving as a torpedo captain on the destroyer USS Fury. The Furious and the Ruthless had previously finished off the Ascade and Zhutki with two beautiful lightning strikes, which was another achievement.
After the battle, Eberhardt went out of his way to meet with the main officers of the Ruthless and Fury, and praised them for their performance. Among them, Isakov attracted the attention of the old man. Because this one was born in a professional class. Cultured. Moreover, he had ample combat experience in the Baltic Fleet, and in the devastated Black Sea Fleet, Isakov was like a firefly in the night, and it was difficult to think of it!
Alberhardt had the idea of cultivating him, and a certain immortal knew that this was also one of the calves, so he was naturally happy to push the boat along the way. Along the way, I also communicated with Isakov from time to time to strengthen my relationship.
Truth be told, though, the experience along the way wasn't pleasant. Especially after entering Slavyansk, which is on the front line of the confrontation between the Red Army and the White Army, the situation here is really not optimistic.
A large number of refugees have been displaced. The barren fields are especially shocking to see the increasing man-made disasters. From time to time, you can see so-called "counter-revolutionaries" who are shot dead on the side of the road. A significant number were convicted and then executed after only brief interrogations. Red terror spread throughout the front.
Anyway, in Li Xiaofeng's view, the combat effectiveness of the Tenth Army is over, after the fiasco in the previous stage, the Tenth Army was already demoralized, and after such a toss, people were even more panicked, and he saw a lot of deserters along the way.
"It's not good!" Isakov said with a worried face.
"It's not bad!" Li Xiaofeng's face couldn't see any better, he had already greeted the female relatives of the Voroshilov family several times in his heart, according to the tossing method of this goods, it was strange that the task assigned to him by the central government could be completed, "The situation here is extremely bad!" ”
According to Li Xiaofeng's original idea, he was not ready to have a head-on conflict with Voroshilov, after all, he had already caused a lot of trouble in the previous paragraph, and if something happened at this time, even the mentor would go crazy.
However, the situation of the Red Tenth Army is too shocking, and if you don't care about it, I'm afraid it will be a river of blood.
"Let's go to the local Cheka, we can't let them toss around." Li Xiaofeng walked in front with a calm face.
It should be said that he came by coincidence, and when he arrived in the local Cheka, he was just in time for Sukhoi's classmates to be tried.
"Mikhail. Petrovich, you don't admit to these crimes! ”
In a simple small room, a simple courtroom of judges, prosecutors and recorders is hearing cases with great efficiency. Why is it fast? Because the process is such that after the "counter-revolutionaries" are brought in, the prosecutor makes a complaint, and then the judge asks the defendant whether he or she pleaded guilty.
If the defendant pleads guilty, it is so simple and simple, and the verdict is made according to the severity of the crime charged by the prosecutor. Of course, the lightest is usually hard labor or life imprisonment or something, and more is a straightforward on-the-spot shooting.
Some comrades will immediately ask, what if the defendant does not plead guilty?
That's simple, the judge will think that the defendant is dead and unrepentant, and then the crime will be added to the first degree. Originally, the sentence of hard labor or imprisonment was directly upgraded to shooting on the spot. As for those who were to be put to death, it was nothing more than a death.
Simple, efficient, right? In fact, there are simpler ones, and in some extraordinary times or in the face of extraordinary people, this simple procedure will be simplified again. For example, when Kolchak was executed, the Cheka was only interrogated, and then did not wait for the court, let alone the judge who made a verdict, and directly executed the goods in secret.
Sukhoi today is as proud as ever, although there are no more orderlies to help him with his coat, no mirrors or razors to trim his beautiful mustache, and those shiny leather boots have been stripped away before he is put in prison.
Sukhoi was a little embarrassed from the outside, but unlike the other "counter-revolutionaries", when he walked barefoot to the judgment seat, he was arrogant, with his head held high, his chin held high, and he looked down on the judges and prosecutors with unruly eyes.
The judge was finally annoyed by this thing and said angrily: "Mikhail. Petrovic, I'll ask you once after the last. Do you plead guilty or not! ”
Sukhoi raised his head and sneered, "Astaffisquicklyfoundtobeatadogwith. There is no excuse for it)"
The judges, prosecutors, and recorders were dumbfounded. With their level of education, Russian writing is stumbling, not to mention any English. The three of them looked at each other with bewilderment, and their six eyes were full of bewilderment.
"Speak human words!" The judge was furious and slapped the table hard, causing him to breathe in pain.
Sukhoi glanced at him and threw out another sentence: "Fullbeliesmakeemptyskulls."
Now the judge is really angry, and he wants to slap the table again. But his hand still hurt, so he had to roar again: "Are you going to resist stubbornly?" I tell you, your actions are terrible and the consequences are serious! ”
Sukhoi was just about to be sarcastic, but a voice came from outside the door: "Athreatenedblowisseldomgiven."
Originally, Sukhoi also wanted to say this, but who would have thought that someone would rush ahead of him, and suddenly this thing was curious to follow the reputation. A certain immortal walked in shaking his head, looked at the judge's stomach as he walked, nodded and said very seriously and seriously: "The belly is indeed quite big. ”
Then he glanced at the judge's face. sighed again: "It really looks like a straw bale!" ”
The judge's face turned green with anger, and he could no longer care about the pain in his palm. While slapping the table, he roared, "Who are you!" Do you know what kind of place this is?! sarcastically sarcastic people's judges, do you know what kind of crime this is? ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I really don't know what to do, why don't you tell me?" ”
The more relaxed Li Xiaofeng was, the more he laughed and scolded, the more ugly the judge's face became, and he slammed his palm on the table and shouted, "Guard! ”
"Don't bother with that," Li Xiaofeng said very casually, "You just slammed the table and broke the palm of your hand, and the guards won't come!" ”
"What!" The big-bellied judge looked at a certain immortal in disbelief, and only after a long time shouted, "Who are you?" ”
Li Xiaofeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "People who see uneven roads." To be honest, your kind of goods really lowered the average quality of the Cheka, and the problem is very serious! ”
When Sukhoi heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "I have gone to my heart when I say this!" After saying that, the thing began to laugh heartlessly.
Speaking from the heart, Li Xiaofeng did not know who Sukhoi was, nor did he know whether he was a counter-revolutionary. It's just that just outside the door just now, I heard this thing constantly dropping the book bag and constantly sarcastically mocking the judge, so I came in to see the strange thing. Because he was a little curious, is this thing really not afraid of death?
In the face of Li Xiaofeng's question, Sukhoi raised his head again and said very proudly: "Betteragloriousdeaththanashamefullife."
The corners of Li Xiaofeng's mouth twitched, this second goods made him think of Eberhardt, at least these two people have the kind of pride that only military aristocratic families have, even if they die, they can't lose their share.
Li Xiaofeng doesn't have a good impression of this kind of person, but he can't talk about a bad feeling. People, they have to have a little integrity, even if it is the sour and rotten spirit of the old and the young, it is stronger than the servile spirit of bowing the knee and surrendering.
Li Xiaofeng suddenly turned his head, pointed at Sukhoi and asked the prosecutor, "What crime did he commit?" ”
The prosecutor still wanted to be tough and warn Li Xiaofeng again, but immediately the guard behind a certain immortal pushed the guy away without saying a word and took the indictment to a certain immortal.
Li Xiaofeng glanced at the indictment and pouted: "What is this!" As he spoke, he walked over to the prosecutor's desk, flipped through the other indictments, and burst out laughing.
Why would Li Xiaofeng laugh? The reason is very simple, these so-called indictments are simply a template made, to put it mildly, the names of the defendants have been changed. Most of the crimes are "generic".
Li Xiaofeng patted his head, shook his head and said, "This is too unprofessional, and it can't be faked!" ”
These words made the judges and prosecutors have a fever on their faces, but soon, they put this embarrassment behind them and warned a certain immortal again: "You have to be responsible when you speak, you are slandering the people's prosecutor and the people's court!" It's the current counter-revolution! ”
Li Xiaofeng sighed, turned his head and smiled: "At this level, still slander? The pigs are doing better than you! ”
As he spoke, he instructed the guards beside him: "You go to the archives, take over all the case files, and inform the person in charge of the local Cheka, and ask him to come and see me immediately!" ”
The judge and the prosecutor were stunned, they saw someone young just now, and they didn't think he was a big man, so they dared to warn him again and again. And now, someone's aura and words are too big, and there is a faint sense of king's spirit.
"Same ...... Comrade, who the hell are you? The judge said in a low voice, "If you are not satisfied with our work, you can give your opinion!" Everyone is a class comrade, and you can talk about it if you have something to say! ”
Li Xiaofeng glanced at him and said angrily: "Iregardthatmanaslost, whohaslosthissenseofshame."
"Huh?" The judge was obviously stunned, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and asked carefully, "What did you say?" ”
Li Xiaofeng shook his head, sighed, turned to Sukhoi and said: "Itisasmallflockthathasnotablacksheep.
After speaking, without waiting for Sukhoi to answer, he waved his hand fiercely and ordered: "Tie up these two disgusting things, and let's go!" (To be continued......)
PS: I don't know how many times this month I bowed and thanked the two comrades Juventus and Kill Potato in seconds, and the fat on my waist was less (laughs)
