Agelina heard someone knocking on the door, and quickly got up and opened the door. Seeing Seryosha standing at the door, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and asked with some surprise: "What do you want to see me for?"
"I'm not looking for you, Agelina." Seryosha looked at the beautiful female translator and said with a half-smile, "It's our battalion commander who wants to see you for something."
"Battal Commander?" Agelina has been staying in her room since Sokov and the others took over the prisoner of war camp. Naturally, she doesn't know that the Istria Company has been upgraded from a company to a battalion, so she is confused. He asked, "Who is your battalion commander?"
"Who else could it be? It's Lieutenant Sokov who talked to you yesterday." Seryosha said with some pride: "Oh, I forgot to tell you, because we captured the prisoner of war camp without any blood yesterday, and his superiors have already promoted him As battalion commander, he is now Captain Sokov.”
Agelina waited for Seryosha to finish speaking, and then asked: "Then I can ask, does your battalion commander want to see me for anything?"
Seryosha shook his head and replied honestly: "I don't know, he just ordered me to come and invite you. Please, Comrade Adelina, everyone is waiting for you."
Adelina followed Seryosha to the door of Sokov's room. She was startled by the crowd of people sitting inside. Just when she was standing at the door hesitating, Sokov had already seen her, stood up and greeted her and said: "Comrade Agelina, don't stand at the door, please come in."
With everyone watching, Agelina came to Sokov and asked calmly: "Captain Sokov, did you ask me to come here? What's the matter?"
"That's right, Comrade Agelina." In front of many of his subordinates, Sokov asked in a serious manner: "I heard that you once served as a translator for the German garrison commander. Is this the case?"
"Yes, Comrade Captain." When Agelina said this, she caught a glimpse of several people casting hostile glances at her. Although she couldn't name those people, she could guess from their tattered military coats that they should be prisoners of war who had just been rescued. She said in a panic: "I once served as an interpreter for the German garrison commander. .”
Sokov noticed the strangeness in Agelina's tone. He frowned slightly. He was trying to figure out what was going on, but he accidentally noticed the hostile glances directed at Agelina. He finally understood what was going on, and before continuing to question Agelina, he first explained to the commander who did not understand the situation: "Commanders, let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Agelina. She was ordered by her superiors to work underground in the Voloklamsk area. In order to complete the tasks assigned to her by her superiors, she silently endured the misunderstandings of her own people and the hostile looks of others, and lived humiliatingly among the enemies. With.…”
Those in the room who didn't know Adelina's identity, except for the platoon leader who was selected from the prisoners of war, were also Saveyev, Vasily and others. After listening to Sokov's introduction, everyone finally understood why she appeared at such an important meeting. The squad leaders who realized that they had mistakenly blamed Agelina all smiled apologetically.
After resolving everyone's crisis of trust in Agelina, Sokov continued to ask: "Agelina, do you know where there is a German supply base nearby?"
"Supply base?" Upon hearing Sokov's question, Agelina immediately asked alertly: "Comrade Captain, what are you asking about the German supply base?"
"That's it, Comrade Agelina." Sokov did not hide anything from Agelina, but reported truthfully: "We have more than a thousand people here, and we consume a lot of supplies on a daily basis. We Being behind enemy lines, it is naturally impossible to ask our superiors to deliver supplies to us, so we can only consider taking them from the enemy. I would like to ask, are there any enemy warehouses nearby?"
After figuring out Sokov's intention, Agelina nodded and said with certainty: "There is a logistics warehouse twenty kilometers east of the prisoner of war camp. All the supplies needed in the prisoner of war camp are Provided by them.”
"Did you take the initiative to go to the warehouse to collect the supplies, or did they send someone to deliver them?"
Agelina replied: "Usually, the warehouse takes the initiative to send people over, once every five days, and the most recent one was the day before yesterday, which means that the goods will not be delivered to us until the day after tomorrow at the earliest."
When Sokov heard what Agelina said, he asked unwillingly: "Have you never taken the initiative to receive supplies?"
"Been there, of course." Agelina nodded and said affirmatively: "Last week, I accompanied the lieutenant of the prisoner of war camp to collect weapons and ammunition there."
"What?" After hearing this, Vanya couldn't sit still anymore. He asked excitedly: "Comrade Agelina, are there any weapons and ammunition in that warehouse?"
"Yes, in addition to daily supplies, there are also a large number of weapons and ammunition stored." Agelina's words aroused everyone's interest. Everyone leaned forward, wanting to hear every word she said. , "I also saw two tanks parked inside."
"Agelina," Sokov heard that there were tanks in the warehouse, and his breathing became rapid. He asked a series of questions: "Have you seen the crews of those two tanks? Also, this warehouse How many defenders are there?"
In response to Sokov's questions, Agelina thought for a while and replied: "I didn't see the crew of the tank, it should have just arrived. As for how many defenders there are in the warehouse area, according to my observation, There are at least more than a hundred people. In addition to a few machine gun fire points, there are also quite a few patrol teams..."
"Thank you, Comrade Agelina." After expressing his gratitude to Agelina, Sokov said to the commanders present: "Comrades, don't you feel that your company's weapons are insufficient? Since we We already know that there is an enemy warehouse nearby, so we will let the enemy replenish us with weapons."
From Sokov's words, everyone heard that he was preparing to seize the warehouse, and they all stood up and asked for a fight: "Comrade Battalion Commander, please give this glorious task to our company to complete!"
"No, your 1st company has already made a contribution in liberating the prisoner of war camp." Saveyev was afraid that Sokov would hand over the task to the 1st and 2nd companies to complete the task again, so he quickly said: "No matter what I say this time, It’s our third company’s turn to fight this battle!”
"I think this task should be completed by our machine gun company." Vasily, who has been serving as a reserve team, is even more impatient this time. "With the firepower of our company, it is enough to eliminate the guarded warehouse in the shortest time." enemy."
