Chapter 2071 Meeting Driver Luo Again

The distribution of supplies has come to an end. It does not mean that the supplies have been distributed here and will not be distributed in the future. But as the head of a division, Malashenko still has a lot of work to do and cannot waste time on such trivial matters.

Even if he has to take care of the political affairs of the liberated areas when fighting abroad, Malashenko's main job is still a military chief. The local political affairs of the liberated areas under his jurisdiction can only be regarded as a secondary matter to work with the political commissar, and it is impossible to be ranked before his main job.

Although Malashenko can foresee that after completing so many important and urgent continuous combat tasks, the superiors who have already grasped the control of the Central Bridge of the Vistula River should not add orders to require the leader division to immediately perform some urgent tasks.

No matter how strong and elite the leader division is, all officers and soldiers are also human beings and need rest.

Try fighting a whole day at high intensity, and then stay up all night to maneuver for the bridge crossing. Even a man made of iron can't bear it. Proper rest is necessary for the current leader division.

If such an elite synthetic heavy armored group is severely reduced in combat power and seriously declines due to fatigue overdraft, and then encounters unnecessary casualties that could have been avoided in the next battle, then the commander of the front commanding the leader division may have to accept the cordial greetings of Comrade Stalin, the father.

You must know that Comrade Stalin has always been very concerned about the real-time situation of the troops named after him. Any commander of the front who wants to gain command of the super ace unit of the leader division must be clearly aware of this and keep it in mind at all times. While obtaining such a powerful force, you must also bear the corresponding responsibilities and risks, otherwise you may lose yourself if you play too much.

However, even if it is expected that there will be no emergency combat missions today, Malashenko is still very interested in the next action plan and always thinks about it.

The next step is to continue to go deep into the main urban area of ​​Warsaw and fight with the Germans who are encircling the Polish uprising army?

Or do the superiors not want to waste the elite leader division in the meat grinder street fighting where heavy equipment is difficult to display and cannot maximize the advantages, and want Malashenko to transfer the control of the bridgehead city under his jurisdiction to the friendly troops that arrive later, and then take the troops out of the city immediately to other field directions to continue fighting?

Both situations are possible. The key depends on which direction the entire battle is developing.

Is it the battle to clear the German army in the city that needs the leader division, or the field battlefield in a certain direction outside the city that needs the leader division? The priority between the two is the key to the problem.

"Any news? Did the superiors give any orders?"

After subduing Major Adam last night and suppressing him, and preparing to book a ticket for this guy to a Siberian farmhouse with food and accommodation, Malashenko simply moved his division headquarters to the two-story building next to the bridgehead where Major Adam's headquarters was originally located. This is the building with a long underground tunnel and a large underground warehouse.

If a battle really breaks out, the underground structure with a high security factor is also the best choice to ensure the safety of the division headquarters. What's more, this two-story building headquarters has been specially modified by the Germans. Things like the command room, conference room, and communication room are all ready. If it is used directly, it can save Malashenko a lot of trouble. Why not?

In front of the map hanging in the command room on the second floor, the political commissar, who was studying the situation in the city with the latest intelligence just obtained, put down his work immediately when he saw Malashenko approaching while asking questions, and then responded to Malashenko who was walking towards him.

"Just received news that our division's affiliation has been temporarily transferred to the First Front, and Commander Rokossovsky will exercise command over us."

"He also sent us a telegram in his personal name, congratulating and affirming our achievements from yesterday to today. The telegram also mentioned you, saying that your performance is still impressive after not seeing you for a long time, and looking forward to meeting you again."

As the political commissar said this, Malashenko also picked up the fresh telegram paper on the table and read it by himself.

As Comrade Political Commissar said, Driver Luo, the "old hand in love", "King of Akina Mountain Speed ​​Racing", and "Famous Lover of the Red Army", expressed deep feelings for his long-term personal relationship with Malashenko in this telegram sent in his personal name, which gave people a feeling of nostalgia.

Strictly speaking, this is not surprising.

After all, if we really want to say who is Malashenko's first mentor, it is undoubtedly Driver Luo.

It was he who appointed Malashenko as the commander of the initial heavy tank breakthrough battalion, and assigned Karamov, who Malashenko has relied on as the core right-hand man so far, to help Malashenko an irreplaceable big favor. It also laid a solid foundation for Malashenko to stand in the position of battalion commander and make friends with Comrade Lao Zhu, and continue to rise to the top by relying on his strength.

Malashenko has always remembered this favor and is very grateful to Driver Luo.

However, the development of the war has not given Malashenko and driver Luo a chance to meet again, until now when they went abroad to fight, they finally met again on the battlefield. But now Malashenko is a major general, and driver Luo is a hot new marshal of the Red Army.

Thinking back on this past event carefully after the passage of time, it is also a matter of emotion.

"If I have the chance, I will visit the commander in person, but not now, I am not free yet."

Malashenko put down the telegram in his hand with a smile on his face, and the political commissar who saw this scene continued to speak.

"There is a new situation that you need to know, which was just informed to us by the front headquarters."

"We have reliable intelligence to confirm that the German troops attacking and suppressing the Polish insurgents on various fronts in the western part of the city are now quickly withdrawing from the battle and retreating in full."

"Intelligence shows that the Germans had withdrawn their heavy weapons last night and continued to evacuate a large number of infantry troops in an orderly manner this morning. What's interesting is that the Poles who suffered heavy losses don't know what's going on. Many of them are scared. Looking at the empty city left by the Germans after they withdrew, they dare not go up to occupy it, for fear that the Germans will come back again. It's also an interesting story."
