Sokov came to the location of the health team with familiarity.
Since the fighting in the city has ended, most of the wounded who were originally placed here have been moved to the rear. The place that was originally crowded with people seems a bit empty.
When Asiya saw Sokov's appearance, her face showed an expression of surprise: "Misha, why do you have time to come and see me today?"
Sokov stepped forward and gave Asiya a warm hug, and then asked with concern: "Asiya, how are you doing recently?"
"Most of the wounded have been sent away, and there are less than two hundred wounded left." Asiya said with a relaxed expression: "Now there is a group of young health workers here to help, and my job is much easier."
Sokov was worried about how to explain his purpose. Since Asiya took the initiative to mention the new little health workers, he asked casually: "Among these little health workers, there is a little girl named Ada. Do you know her?" Where?"
Asiya glanced at Sokov suspiciously, then turned towards the little health workers not far away who were busy taking care of the wounded. After watching for a while, she pointed at a round-faced little girl who was feeding the wounded and said: "Here, that little girl is the person you are looking for. She is quick with her hands and feet and is hard-working. I think it won't take long for her to be there." You will become an outstanding hygienist here."
"Take good care of her." Seeing someone walking around nearby, Sokov whispered to Asiya: "Don't let her get hurt."
Asiya looked away and asked in confusion: "Misha, you have never asked me to do anything in private, why did you make an exception this time? Could it be that this little girl is some kind of relative of yours?"
"Asiya, there is something I want to tell you. Please keep it confidential." Henry leaned close to Asiya's ear and whispered to her: "According to my analysis, this little girl named Ada may be a front soldier." Daughter of the commander, General Rokossovsky.”
"Ah, she is the commander's daughter?" Asiya whispered in surprise, and then asked: "Misha, are you sure?"
Sokov saw Ada's photo in later life, and based on the name he saw on the roster, he already believed that this person was Rokossovsky's daughter, and replied affirmatively: "Yes, it is her."
"Since she is the daughter of Comrade Commander, why did she get sent here?" Portia asked nervously: "You know, we are a combat unit here, and there is a possibility of sacrifice at any time. Even if she joins the army, she should go Logistics agencies, the dangers encountered there are much less.”
"I think General Rokossovsky doesn't even know about Ada joining the army." Sokov sighed softly and said: "As far as I know, the father and daughter started from the day the war broke out. , we have never met each other. Ada came to the army just to see her father. "
"Misha, I think you should report this to your superiors." Asiya reminded Sokov: "It is necessary to let Comrade Commander know that his daughter is here as soon as possible."
"I have asked the chief of staff to call Commander Chuikov. I believe that after he understands the situation, he will report to the commander of the front army." Sokov warned Asiya: "Remember, Ada's identity must be kept strictly confidential. So as not to put her in danger."
"Don't worry, Misha." Asiya nodded and replied, "I will not reveal her identity. At the same time, I will take good care of her and never let her get hurt."
As soon as Sokov returned to the headquarters, Sidorin reported to him: "Comrade division commander, I have reported this matter to the commander. He was shocked after hearing this and questioned me repeatedly for a long time. Confirmation After it was found to be correct, he said he would immediately report the matter to the commander of the front army.”
"You did a good job, Comrade Chief of Staff." Sokov affirmed Sidorin's approach. He felt that when Rokossovsky heard that his daughter was at Mamayev Heights, he might soon... Will rush over: "Maybe the father and daughter will have a chance to reunite soon."
"By the way, Comrade Division Commander, I have another piece of good news to tell you." Sidorin said excitedly: "I just heard from Commander Chuikov that our friendly forces have just recaptured Kursk today and are also approaching Belgoro. Below De City, we are launching an attack on this city. I believe it won’t take long to drive the enemy out of the city.”
Sokov walked to the wall, looked up at the map hanging on it, and tried to search for relevant content in his mind. After sorting out the information he remembered, he picked up the explanation stick on the wall and said to everyone: "Comrades, as long as the friendly forces occupy Kursk and Belgorod, then they can continue to move south, from the Germans' Take back Kharkov from your hands.”
"Interesting, really interesting." Ivanov, standing behind Sokov, said: "Last May, after our army failed to attack Kharkov, the German army launched an attack on the Caucasus and Stalingrad. Attack. Now we have to repay this blood debt from the Germans."
"Comrade division commander," Sidorin asked Sokov tentatively: "Do you think friendly forces can capture Kharkov?"
"There is no problem in capturing Kharkov." Sokov tried his best to use a tactful tone and told everyone the historical knowledge he had mastered: "But after capturing the city, the friendly troops deployed in the city may meet The battle against the Germans' crazy counterattack will be very serious."
But Sokov's statement did not arouse anyone's alarm at all. On the contrary, Ivanov and Anisimov analyzed the situation optimistically, feeling that as long as the Soviet army recaptured Kharkov, it would be able to cut off Manstein's retreat and surround the opponent so that he could fight again. Fight a battle of annihilation similar to the Battle of Stalingrad.
Regarding everyone's optimism, Sokov did not pour cold water on them. After all, it was a friendly combat area, and even if he said something, it would be of no avail. Instead of doing this, let everyone have more fun with their own imagination.
Seeing Sokov's silence, Ivanov thought that the other party agreed with his view, and said with regret: "It's a pity that our division did not participate in this attack, otherwise the troops that rushed into Manstein's headquarters first would have It could be us."
"It's a bit of a pity." Sidorin also said with regret: "If the friendly forces' attack can be postponed for half a month to a month, allowing our division to complete its repairs and participate in this battle, maybe Manstein will become our prisoners."
The phone on the table rang. Sokov picked up the phone and heard Chuikov's voice: "Colonel Sokov, General Rokossovsky will arrive at Mamayev in half an hour." Gang, please pay attention to receive me."
It turned out that Rokossovsky was inspecting the troops nearby. After receiving Chuikov's report, he immediately put down his work and drove towards Mamaev Hill. Less than ten minutes after Chuikov's call ended, Rokossovsky appeared at the division headquarters. He asked Sokov: "Misha, where is Ada?"
"Comrade Commander of the Front Army, there is a room next to it that is relatively quiet. Please wait there for a while. Ada will be there soon."
"Comrade Commander, please come with me." Sidorin waited for Sokov to finish speaking and immediately led Rokossovsky to the next room: "I will take you there."
As soon as Rokossovsky walked out of the room, Sokov dialed the number of the health team and said to Asiya who answered the phone: "Asiya, it's me. Take Ada to the division headquarters immediately. Someone wants to Meet her.”
"Could it be...?" Asiya only spoke half of her words before she stopped abruptly. She obviously understood who wanted to see Ada and said quickly: "I'll take her over right away."
A few minutes later, Asiya and Ada appeared at the door of the headquarters. Sokov hurriedly greeted them and said to them, "Follow me!"
Sokov led the two of them to the door of the room where Rokossovsky was. Ada accidentally glanced into the room and froze when she saw Rokossovsky pacing back and forth. . Rokossovsky noticed someone appearing at the door and stopped. After seeing Ada standing outside the door clearly, he also stood there in a daze. The father and daughter looked at each other in silence, standing there in a daze as if their acupuncture points had been tapped.
Asiya pushed Ada gently on the back and said softly: "Silly girl, what are you still doing standing here? Go and see who is inside?"
