"There is still a distance of more than ten kilometers from here to your division headquarters. It will take a lot of time to go back and forth." The German Chief of Staff took the initiative to say to Bauer: "If the Russians launch an attack at this time, hold on to the position." The troops may be short of ammunition. We happen to have extra ammunition, so you can send them two trucks of ammunition first, and it will not be too late to return it to us after the ammunition trucks from your division arrive."
"What the Chief of Staff said makes sense." The German Army Commander agreed with his Chief of Staff's proposal. He also said to Bauer: "In order to prevent our soldiers from running out of ammunition and food, you must first recruit them from us. Two trucks of ammunition and one truck of supplies went over, and we first replenished the troops holding their positions."
Seeing that the regiment leader agreed with his opinion, the chief of staff walked to the tent door without waiting for the other party to speak again and shouted outside: "Quartermaster, Quartermaster!"
Following the shouting, a German second lieutenant appeared at the door of the tent, straightened up and asked the Chief of Staff: "Your Majesty, Chief of Staff, what are your instructions?"
"As far as we know, there is a position held by our army to the north of the village. Now they are facing the situation of running out of ammunition and food." The chief of staff pointed to Bauer, who was standing not far away, and said to the quartermaster. : "You immediately prepare two ammunition trucks and a truck containing supplies, and ask them to follow the corporal to the northern position."
Seeing that both the regiment commander and the chief of staff were deceived by his lies, Bauer became bolder. He quickly added: "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, the radio station in the camp was damaged during the battle and cannot communicate with the division." Contact the headquarters and the regiment headquarters. If you have extra radio stations here, can you give them one?"
Knowing that the friendly army's radio station was damaged, the German Chief of Staff said magnanimously: "How can one radio station be enough? What if it breaks again? You made a mistake, I will just give them two radio stations. Quartermaster, prepare two more radio stations, remember Come on, prepare a few more batteries."
With the cooperation of the German army commander and chief of staff, the quartermaster quickly prepared ammunition and supplies for the "friendly forces". After doing all this, he came to the tent and reported to the group leader: "Your Excellency, group leader, everything is ready and ready to go at any time."
According to the original plan, it was Ball who took the three trucks to the northern position. But after listening to the quartermaster's report, the German commander temporarily changed his mind: "Quartermaster, please follow me."
The quartermaster didn't expect that the regiment commander would suddenly issue such an order, and he couldn't help showing a surprised expression on his face: "What, I'm going to follow you?"
"Yes, you come along." The German commander's starting point was good. He was worried that something was missing in the northern position, so he ordered his quartermaster to follow him to understand the situation so that he could make targeted supplements. : "Let's see what our friendly forces still lack. As long as we have it, we can replenish it for them."
After the quartermaster figured out the regiment leader's intention, he quickly agreed loudly. Then he turned around and shook his head at Bauer and said, "Corporal, let's set off. Please be our guide in front."
Bauer did not expect that the quartermaster would lead the team this time, and he couldn't help feeling terrified. He was worried that before he could get close to the position, the quartermaster would find that the position had been occupied by the Russians. At this time, seeing the quartermaster asking him to lead the way, he did not dare to shirk. He could only smile and say: "Quartermaster, please! I will lead the way for your vehicle."
In order to ensure the safety of the supplies, four soldiers were placed on each vehicle to escort the vehicle. Two of them sat in the cab with the driver, and the other two sat on the high piles of supplies. Seeing that Ball was riding a two-wheeled motorcycle without a sidecar, the quartermaster used his authority to find Ball a three-wheeled motorcycle with a sidecar.
When a convoy consisting of a motorcycle and three trucks headed north, Ball's heart began to beat. He was still far away when he discovered that the position had been occupied by the Russians. Now that so many people have passed by, can't they still find that the positions are all Russians?
The distance from the small village to the position was only a few kilometers. In less than ten minutes, Bauer could vaguely see the position in front of him. He secretly thought: If the quartermaster found that the position was full of Russians, would he shoot him? What should I do if I really want to shoot myself? Should he jump out of the car and escape, or fight him bravely?
The scouts deployed by Gurdiev outside discovered the convoy heading towards the position, and quickly reported to Gurdiev through the radio: "Comrade division commander, we found a German convoy heading towards Coming from our position.”
"German convoy?!" When Gurdiev heard the scout's report, he was suddenly startled into a cold sweat and asked quickly: "How many vehicles are there?"
"The convoy consists of a three-wheeled motorcycle and three trucks. The trucks are covered with canvas. I can't see clearly what they are, but according to my estimation, they should all be supplies." The scout reported everything he saw through The microphone reported to Gurdiev: "There are soldiers escorting the vehicle, but they don't seem to realize that the position has been occupied by our troops and have not entered a fighting state."
"Don't shoot, let them come over." Gurdiev realized that only three trucks and a small number of German soldiers came, and he felt more at ease. He was worried that the scouts would lose their composure and take the initiative to attack the enemy. Shooting, he warned: "Don't do anything, let us deal with them."
After ending the call with the scout, Gurdiev said to Samoilov sitting aside: "Comrade Second Lieutenant, the scout reported that there was a convoy consisting of a motorcycle and three trucks heading towards We are here. The enemies escorting the convoy have not entered a fighting state, indicating that they do not know that the position has been occupied by our army. Now you should immediately lead people to greet this convoy and seize the materials on it. "
Samoilov agreed, walked out of the shelter, came to the trench, and said to the soldiers who were already waiting there: "Comrades, the enemy's convoy transporting supplies is coming, and I have been ordered to take you to seize this batch of supplies. Remember. , no one is allowed to speak without my order to avoid exposing their identity. Let’s go!”
A group of people left the trenches and headed towards the approaching convoy. Bauer, who was driving at the front, saw a group of "German soldiers" walking out of the trenches. He couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise. He knew very well that all the Germans on the position had been killed. These "friendly troops" Where did it come from?
Before he could figure it out, he saw a second lieutenant walking at the front, raising his right hand high and shouting with great dignity: "Stop, stop the car!"
Ball stopped his motorcycle five or six meters away from Samoilov. As soon as the motorcycle stopped, the quartermaster jumped out of the sidecar and said to Samoilov: "Second lieutenant, I am the quartermaster of the 547th regiment. I was ordered to deliver supplies to you. I don't know which of you will receive the supplies." ah?"
"Hello, Your Excellency, the Quartermaster." Samoilov smiled and said to the Quartermaster: "We are here to receive the supplies. Please order your people to get out of the car so that we can start unloading."
The quartermaster didn't know that the group of people in front of him were all disguised as Soviet troops. He quickly turned around and shouted to the back: "Everyone is here, get out of the car and line up!"
After seeing the German soldiers in the cab and carriage lined up beside the car, Samoilov winked at the soldiers beside him and growled: "Do it!"
Following Samoilov's order, the soldier standing beside him immediately rushed forward with his gun in hand. He pointed the black muzzle at the German soldiers who had not yet recovered. The sudden change confused everyone, including Ball. The quartermaster was still unconvinced and said: "Second Lieutenant, what are you doing? Why are you pointing your gun at us?"
Samoilov snorted coldly and said in fluent German: "Your Majesty the Quartermaster, I now officially tell you that you and your men have been captured by the Soviet Red Army!"
"What, you are Russians?!" The quartermaster was shocked when he heard Samoilov reveal his identity. He instinctively stretched his hand to his waist, preparing to draw his gun and fight to the death. However, he moved quickly, and Samoilov moved faster than him. Before the quartermaster could draw his pistol, the cold muzzle of the gun was already pressed against his forehead.
Seeing that all the enemies had been captured, Samoilov shook his head and ordered: "Take them all away!" Upon hearing his order, the soldiers immediately escorted the German soldiers with their hands raised toward the position. direction.
The German soldiers escorting the car were taken away, but the three drivers remained in the car. The soldiers opened the car doors, pointed their guns at the drivers, and ordered them to get out of the car immediately.
Although the drivers did not understand Russian, they recognized that the weapons pointed at them were capable of killing people, and they hurriedly raised their hands and got out of the car. One driver was kicked by the soldier next to him because he was moving too slowly. He quickly shouted to the soldier.
The soldiers did not understand what the driver shouted, but Samoylov did. He heard the driver shouting "Comrade, don't get me wrong, he is one of our own."
Samoilov frowned, walked quickly to the driver, and said fiercely to him: "Who is your comrade? Who is your own? Hitler is your comrade!" "
"I am an anti-Faxi Temple activist." The driver heard clearly that Samoylov was scolding him, and quickly defended himself: "I am an anti-Faxi Temple activist. Do you understand?"
Bauer, who was standing nearby and did not move, quickly came out to smooth things over: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, he said that he is an anti-Faxi Temple activist. Do you understand?"
Even though Samoilov speaks German very well, he still doesn't understand many words. At this moment, when he heard Bauer explaining to him again, he realized that he might have misunderstood. He quickly laughed twice and said: "I understand, he is an anti-Faxi Temple activist. I can see it at a glance." Then he said to him again. The soldier guarding the driver waved his hand and said, "He asked our comrades not to point their guns at him."
