"Communicator!" Samoilov put down the phone, called a correspondent, and ordered him: "Call the two deputy company commanders here immediately and tell them that there is an important combat mission."
Lieutenant Sapochuk from the 98th Guards Division was woken up from his sleep by the correspondent. He asked a little irritably: "What's going on, why don't you let me sleep anymore?"
The correspondent was startled by Sapochuk's attitude. After a brief panic, he carefully replied: "Comrade Lieutenant, the company commander asks you to go to the company headquarters immediately, saying that you have an important combat mission."
Hearing that there was an important combat mission, Sapochuk's attitude immediately changed and he quickly asked: "Correspondent, do you know what the combat mission is?"
"I don't know." The correspondent shook his head and replied: "Comrade Lieutenant, you will know what the mission is when you go to the company headquarters."
Seeing that he couldn't get the answer he wanted from the correspondent, Sapochuk didn't dare to neglect, quickly bent down and put on his boots, and hurried to the company headquarters.
When he entered the company headquarters, he found that another deputy company commander, Lieutenant Serelkov, was talking to the company commander, Lieutenant Samoilov. In fact, both Sapochuk and Serelkov were originally company commanders, each commanding a company of hundreds of people. But after Sokov formed the special company, he had no choice but to resign the two company commanders and become deputy company commanders. However, Lieutenant Samoilov, the original guard platoon leader, became their immediate boss.
Facing Samoylov, his boss who had a lower position than him not long ago, Sapochuk remained polite enough. He came to Samoylov, raised his hand in salute, and reported in accordance with the order: "Company Comrade Commander, Deputy Company Commander Lieutenant Sapochuk..."
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, Samoylov raised his hand and interrupted him: "Comrade Deputy Company Commander, the situation is critical now. This is not the time to follow orders. Let me tell you about the problems we are about to solve." .”
After Samoilov's brief explanation, Sapochuk's eyes widened in surprise: "What, is it possible for the enemy to sneak attack on the Dnieper River Bridge?"
"Yes, everything so far continues to show that the enemy, wearing our military uniforms and infiltrating from the mechanized military defense area, is targeting the bridge on the Dnieper River." Samoilov emphasized: "As long as If the bridge is blown up, the amount of supplies for the troops at the landing site on the right bank will be greatly reduced. Now that the Germans are launching another attack on the landing site at this time, it is estimated that our defense line may be breached."
"Comrade Company Commander, I think your worries are completely unnecessary." Sapochuk said: "You know, the defenders on the bridge are an established company with 120 people. If the Germans really only have How can 20 people capture the bridge?"
Faced with Sapochuk's doubts, Serelkov said: "Lieutenant Sapochuk, you can't say that. Regardless of the small number of Germans, if they touch the sentries, they can sneak into the barracks and kill those sleeping inside. The soldier is fully capable of taking control of the right bank of the bridge in just a few minutes."
"Lieutenant Serelkov is right." Samoilov agreed with Serelkov's statement: "As long as the Germans control a section of the bridge deck, they can complete the blasting of the bridge."
"Comrade Company Commander," Serelkov waited for Samoilov to finish speaking, then took the initiative to ask for orders: "Let me carry out this task."
Sapochuk never felt that the Germans could cause any damage to the bridge, but when he saw Serelkov volunteering for help, he quickly came out to fight for the task: "Comrade company commander, let me complete this task. I promise you , we will never let the Germans cause any damage to our bridge."
Seeing that the two deputy company commanders were vying to complete the reinforcement mission, Samoylov hesitated. Who should be sent to lead the reinforcements? After thinking for a long time, I felt that Serelkov would do the most appropriate thing. There should be no problem if he leads the troops to reinforce. "I think this task should be left to Lieutenant Serelkov to complete."
Seeing the frustrated look on Sapochuk's face, Samoylov continued: "Lieutenant Sapochuk, don't be discouraged. Your company must rush to the bridge as soon as possible. If Lieutenant Serelkov can't deal with this The enemy may still need your support."
Sapochuk, who was originally depressed, couldn't help but light up when he heard what Samoylov said. He felt that his status in Samoylov's mind was much higher than that of Serelkov, so he couldn't help but smile. Care about whether you play a reserve role. Serelkov, on the other hand, just smiled faintly after listening to Samoilov's words. His idea was very simple, which was to lead the troops to the bridge as soon as possible to confirm whether it had been occupied by the Germans.
Ten minutes later, Serelkov led his men in eight trucks and rushed to the left bank of the bridge.
The sentry on the left bank saw a convoy parked nearby. The commanders and fighters inside got off the carriage and immediately began to line up. Seeing this, the sentry guessed that something might have happened, and quickly reported to the company commander on the phone: "Comrade company commander, there is a convoy coming outside, and there are many people. Come and take a look."
