Chapter 2052: Exposed

The order to give priority to controlling the bridge piers closest to the shore was issued by Malashenko at the beginning of the plan.

The Germans like to install manual detonators on the bridge piers closest to the shore to serve as a backup after the wire-guided detonator fails. This is not new in Malashenko's war experience all the way to the present, but is common.

You can't expect to sit back and relax after controlling the wire-guided detonator. Malashenko, as always, doesn't like to pin his fate on the possibility that the enemy will definitely fail.

One's own destiny must be controlled by oneself. The Germans do have the risk of jumping over the wall in desperation, which must be acknowledged.

In view of this, they started to act separately at the same time.

On my side, I will deal with the commander of the German garrison, Major Adam, while Alsim will be responsible for taking control of the bridge piers closest to the shore and solving the hidden dangers of the Germans jumping over the wall in desperation. This is the final action plan.

As for taking photos of the detonator or asking about the situation in the basement, those were all intentional actions by Malashenko to delay time.

If there is a clear purpose, there is only one: to do everything possible to hold Major Adam back and trap him in the basement before Alsim finishes his work and brings people over, so that the Germans who have just been severely injured above will be leaderless and unable to deal with everything that comes from the shadow.

This is not included in the earlier plan, but a targeted adjustment made by Malashenko based on the current situation after the emergency. The plan is not immutable.

Judging from the final result, it may be said that Malashenko is very lucky. At least the final completion result of this temporary modification plan did not cause any major problems.

Alsim, who was in a hurry, received Malashenko's order and left the basement to execute it.

The soldiers who stayed in the basement also began to escort the captured German prisoners of war one by one into a line, and sent them out of the basement one by one, and sent them to the ground through the long tunnel.

Not long after, it seemed that only Malashenko was left in the entire basement, along with a dozen combat engineer soldiers who were left to guard the place and keep an eye on the detonator.

"Come if you want to, let's fight again! Let's see who is the king in this dark night!"

It will take some time for the main force of the Leader Division to arrive as planned, and the Germans' reinforcements of at least one battalion are already on the way.

Malashenko did not expect his own people to arrive before the enemy. The German skin he was wearing was already effective and could also play a very valuable role of surprise, enough to give the Germans who came to support him another hard blow.

The lieutenant colonel of the Wehrmacht who walked towards the surface world along the long tunnel was laughing, and his laughter was very evil and seemed a little weird. A foreseeable bloody plan had already been brewing in his mind.

At the same time, not far away on the other side, in the forward field division headquarters of the Leader Division.

The political commissar, who had already cracked the "little trick" left by Malashenko, was so angry that he sat at the table with his face turning blue and purple and speechless.

And one of the parties who caused all this stood in front of him with his head down like a child who had done something wrong.

"Comrade political commissar, this is not Malashenko's fault. It was me, I asked to do this, and I came up with all the bad ideas. Why don't you punish me? How about this?"

In terms of position and rank, Lavrinenko and Political Commissar Petrov are both deputy commanders at the division level, and both are colonels.

And in terms of position alone, the military deputy commander is higher than the political deputy commander. This is the result of Zhukov's group's strong recommendation in front of his father when the political commissar system was reformed again. After all, the political commissar's power over the military chief will indeed cause some bad situations to appear, and some things that happened before have confirmed this situation.

But this is the leader division after all, you can't generalize everything.

Who is Political Commissar Petrov?

He is one of the most senior veterans of the leader division. He is a special person that the division commanders all respect and regard as a teacher, friend, and half-father.

Moreover, his identity and status are not due to his seniority or backdoor or connections. He is a truly excellent political commissar who is both civil and military, and is hard to find.

Otherwise, do you really think that the political commissar of the leader division can be so casual?

This is one of the most special political commissars among the millions of Red Army troops. He is the political commissar of the ace elite division named after the supreme leader Comrade Stalin. He is not a random person on the roadside.

It is for this reason that Lavrinenko, who is well aware of this situation, was exposed after his "little trick" with Malashenko was exposed, and the division commander ran to be the assault team leader, leaving him, the deputy division commander, lying on the bed to take the blame.

He dared not act rashly in front of the "deceived" political commissar. A colonel deputy division commander was treated like a kid who had done something wrong in front of his parents. Now he was just waiting for the political commissar to give him a result and see how to deal with him.

"You? You asked me to do this? Do you really think I would believe it? Believe that you let Malashenko listen to you, let him be the assault team leader, and you lied on the bed and pretended to deceive me? Deceive all the comrades in the division?"

""

It must be said that the old ones are the wisest. When Comrade Political Commissar spoke, Lavrinenko immediately felt that the lie he told was really embarrassing, and it sounded like an insult to people's intelligence.

"Comrade Political Commissar, I"

"Okay, there is no point in talking more. Now is not the time to discuss this."

Political Commissar Petrov waved his hand to interrupt Lavrinenko's unfinished words. At the moment, there are indeed more important things that must be completed first.

"Comrade Division Commander, they have started the action for one hour and thirty-five minutes. This is beyond the scheduled time. Act according to the alternative plan and head towards the Central Bridge."

"Comrade Deputy Division Commander, emergency radio call, requiring you to answer it immediately."

""

Political Commissar Petrov had not finished speaking when the busy communications staff rushed up and reported, interrupting his words.

The commissar, who had roughly guessed what was going on, glanced at Lavrinenko. Knowing that he could no longer hide the truth, Lavrinenko could only admit his mistake and tell the truth.

"It was Malashenko. I agreed with him that he would call me by radio after the work was done. He was afraid that you would know about it, so he asked me to answer the phone. This was discussed in advance."

""

The commissar, who had guessed correctly, rolled his eyes and was speechless about the two commanders and deputy commanders.

But at this point, the overall situation should be taken into consideration. The commissar, who was not convenient to say more, just waved his hand and signaled Lavrinenko to answer the radio quickly. Unexpectedly, Lavrinenko, who was standing in front of him, responded with other words.
