Before Rokossovsky could respond, the phone on the table rang. Antonov grabbed the phone and said, "This is the General Staff. I'm Antonov. Where are you from?"
After hearing the other party's voice, Antonov, who was originally sitting, suddenly stood up, straightened his body and said: "Hello, Comrade Stalin, what are your instructions?"
When they learned that the call was from Stalin, the staff of the General Staff stopped talking and stood up straight. They looked respectfully at Antonov who was on the phone, eager to see something from the other person's expression. .
But before they could see anything, Antonov had already put down the phone, looked at Rokossovsky and said: "General Rokossovsky, I just received a call from the Supreme Commander himself. He said An emergency military meeting will be held in half an hour and you will be invited to attend this meeting."
Sokov, who was far away on the front line, did not know that Rokossovsky had arrived in Moscow and was preparing to explain his combat plan in detail to the supreme commander himself. After Sokov inspected the army, he found that the recruits in certain companies did not even have weapons, which caused him a headache. What should I do if I go to the battlefield without a gun? Should I fight the Germans with a stick?
To solve the problem of weapons, he first thought of his old friend Yakov. Yakov works in the weapons and equipment department, and can not only provide himself with conventional weapons, but also some newly developed weapons. It is precisely because of the support of this friend that the troops under his command have achieved victory after victory in the past two years.
Sokov asked the director of the Communications Corps to help him connect to the switchboard of the Weapons and Equipment Department. When the female operator's voice came from inside, he said politely: "Hello, comrade operator, I am General Sokov from the front line. Please help me get to General Yakov’s office!”
"General Yakov?!" Hearing what Sokov said, the operator was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Sorry, Comrade Commander, I have never heard of General Yakov!"
"What, you've never heard of Yakov?" Sokov heard the operator say this. His first reaction was that the other party must be new, otherwise he would definitely not know Yakov. Thinking of this, he asked tentatively: "Girl, are you new here?"
"Yes, Comrade Commander, I was just transferred here two days ago." The female operator said apologetically: "How about I ask my colleagues to see if they know."
Soon, Sokov heard another voice: "Hello, General Sokov, I am operator No. 9037. I regret to inform you that General Yakov is not in the weapons and equipment department now. He has been transferred to other departments. The department went."
"What, Yakov was transferred?" Sokov asked in surprise: "Do you know where he was transferred?"
"I'm sorry, Comrade General." Operator No. 9037 said apologetically: "With my level, it is impossible to know where General Yakov has been transferred?"
"You don't know either, and that's such a shame."
Just when Sokov was about to hang up, the operator at No. 9037 asked unexpectedly: "Comrade General, do you need to speak to your wife?"
Hearing what the operator said, Sokov almost blurted out his agreement, but he still controlled his emotions and expressed his gratitude to the other party: "Thank you, comrade operator. This is a military line. I cannot use it to talk about personal matters. Thank you for your kindness, I will not contact her again. Thank you!"
When Sokov hung up the phone, the first operator to answer the phone asked 9037 curiously: "Do you know this general?"
"We know him, of course he does." 9037 nodded and said, "He used to call General Yakov a lot. After the general answered the phone, he would go on a business trip for a while, and he would be promoted soon after he came back."
"What's going on?" There were not many calls in the weapons and equipment department at the moment, and the operator had time to chat: "Why is General Yakov promoted every time he comes back?"
"The reason is simple. General Yakov sends weapons to General Sokov's troops every time." 9037 explained: "General Sokov relied on these weapons to defeat the Germans time and time again. He has accomplished countless feats." At this point, she lowered her voice and pretended to be mysterious, "You may not know, but General Sokov is the youngest general in our army, and he is only in his twenties now."
"No way, you became a general in your twenties?" The operator said with a shocked look on his face: "You're not kidding me, are you?"
"What am I teasing you about?" 9037 said: "If you are interested, go check out some newspapers. There must be reports about General Sokov in them. If he hadn't been married a long time ago, I would like to give it a try. Is there any chance of marrying him?"
"He is already married, is it true?"
"Of course it's true," 9037 nodded and said, "His wife is the female military doctor named Asia from the Medical Department. It is said that the two of them registered their marriage during the Battle of Stalingrad..."
Just as the operator was about to ask a few more questions, the phone lines suddenly became busy. She could only put down her curiosity and concentrate on connecting the lines.
Sokov did not find Yakov, and he felt quite depressed. He said to Ponedelin and Sidorin: "Deputy Commander, Chief of Staff, the operator from the Weapons and Equipment Department just told me that Major General Yakov is not here now. The weapons and equipment department was transferred to other units."
"What, was transferred to another department?" Sidorin and Sokov have been partners for a long time, so they naturally know that the troops can win again and again, and the weapons provided by Yakov are indispensable. Now that such a backer suddenly disappeared, he was very anxious: "Did the operator say where Major General Yakov was transferred?"
Sokov shook his head and said slowly: "I don't know. The operator said that she was not qualified to know given her level."
"This is really a headache." Sidorin said with a sad face: "Without Yakov's help, it will not be as easy as before for us to obtain some advanced weapons in the future."
Hearing what Sidorin said, Sokov smiled bitterly, and then said: "Without Yakov's help, let alone advanced weapons, I am afraid that even conventional weapons cannot be replenished if they want to be replenished. Alas. , there are so many new recruits without weapons, where should we go to help them find weapons?"
"Comrade Commander, when it comes to finding weapons, I have an idea. I wonder if you want to hear it."
"Comrade Deputy Commander," since Ponedelin said that he had a solution to the weapons problem, Sokov had no reason not to want to hear it. He quickly urged him: "Hurry up and tell me where we should go to get weapons." ?" Before Rokossovsky could respond, the phone on the table rang, and Antonov grabbed the phone: "This is the General Staff Headquarters, I'm Antonov, where are you? "
After hearing the other party's voice, Antonov, who was originally sitting, suddenly stood up, straightened his body and said: "Hello, Comrade Stalin, what are your instructions?"
When they learned that the call was from Stalin, the staff of the General Staff stopped talking and stood up straight. They looked respectfully at Antonov who was on the phone, eager to see something from the other person's expression. .

When Sokov hung up the phone, the first operator to answer the phone asked 9037 curiously: "Do you know this general?"
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
"We know him, of course he does." 9037 nodded and said, "He used to call General Yakov a lot. After the general answered the phone, he would go on a business trip for a while, and he would be promoted soon after he came back."

Make weapons?"
