"But, we have fought like this before." The former division chief of staff replied in a panic: "You must know that the direction we choose is the main direction of attack and cannot be adjusted casually."
After listening to what the other party said, Muzichenko became even more aware that there were many problems in this unit. The first was that the tactical thinking was dull and it was strange that they could win the battle. He waved his hand and said, "Colonel Yesenin is outside. You go back to the headquarters with him."
After sending away the former chief of staff, Muzichenko directly asked the chief of staff he brought with him, Lekashali: "Comrade Major, tell me what you think."
"The mission of the superiors is very clear, which is to break through the German defenses outside the town of Golovanivsik, enter the town to join the friendly forces, and control the entire town." Lekashali quickly fell into his role. He seemed not to Because several of the regiment commanders had higher military ranks than him, he seemed embarrassed, but said with this expression: "Although our two attacks on the town ended in failure and even cost huge casualties, we still need to Keep attacking."
Hearing what Lekashali said, the commander of the 701st regiment couldn't help but feel a little in his heart, thinking to himself: "Continuing the attack, doesn't that mean that our regiment will also participate in the attack?"
Sure enough, a moment later, he saw Lekashali's eyes resting on him: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel," Lekashali said politely: "In the next attack, your regiment will be the main attacker. It must be done before dawn." , broke through the German defenses, rushed into the town and joined the friendly forces."
"It's very difficult, comrade major." The leader of the 701 regiment deliberately spelled the word "major" clearly, as if to remind the other party that his military rank was higher than his: "Our two attacks ended in failure. If we continue to attack If so, I’m afraid there will be even greater casualties.”
"You are right, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel." Rekashali unexpectedly agreed with him: "If we continue to attack from that area, even if we barely break through the German defenses, it will probably be a disastrous victory. If the troops If they are all gone, our division will have nothing to do with the rest of the battle."
The leader of the 701 regiment also felt the same way. If the troops are exhausted, they will be beaten again. He nodded and asked politely: "Comrade Major, I wonder how you plan to reverse this situation?"
"Commander of the 700th Regiment," Lekashali said to the commander of the 700th Regiment: "You are setting up an offensive posture in the south of the town to attract the attention of the Germans. As for the 701st Regiment, taking advantage of the Germans' attention, While the 700 regiments were being attracted, they quietly moved around the east side of the town and entered the town from there."
"Wait a minute, Comrade Major." The leader of the 701 regiment interrupted Lekashali's words and asked: "Why do we need to detour from the east side of the town? Can we break through the German defenses from that direction?"
"I think this possibility is very high." Muzichenko interrupted: "A few hours ago, Lieutenant Colonel Kirillov led part of the 252nd Division into the town from the east, and along the way All the enemies we encountered were wiped out with almost no fighting.”
"Then will the Germans deploy heavy troops to the east of the town to defend us at this moment?" The commander of the 701st Regiment said in an uncertain tone: "What if they discover that Lieutenant Colonel Kirillov's troops have entered the town?" , mobilize troops from other places and build a new line of defense to prevent more troops from entering the town through that gap."
"I don't think so." The person who spoke this time was acting division commander Muzichenko: "The Germans must think that if we enter the town from here and are discovered by them, we will definitely choose a new road. And this time we He decided to do the opposite and deliberately re-enter the town from here."
"But, we have fought like this before." The former division chief of staff replied in a panic: "You must know that the direction we choose is the main direction of attack and cannot be adjusted casually."
