Chapter 570 dal
"Comrades, the facts have proved that as long as you are willing to fight for the Soviet Union and Stalingrad, we will not give up on you. You have always had the opportunity to return to the embrace of the motherland. Now is the ti for you to make a decision..."
Soon, the loudspeakers that were still in use in the streets and alleys of Stalingrad were spreading the deeds of the Fifth Infantry Company everywhere.
In fact, Zhukov personally ordered a batch of horns to be transferred from the east bank of the Volga River to Stalingrad for this matter, because he thought it was an excellent opportunity for publicity. Not only to Stalingrad, but also to the entire army and even the entire Soviet Union.
You must know that this is a ti when the supply line is blocked, and the delivery of horns that cannot be eaten or fought at this ti is enough to prove that Zhukov attaches great importance to this matter.
Then, the award for the 5th Infantry Company soon ca down.
Sokolov was promoted to second lieutenant, and together with ten other outstanding soldiers in the infantry company, each received a Red Star dal.
This is of course what Zhukov ant.
Actually, if you just look at performance, it is normal for the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Infantry Company to be promoted because of their previous stains, but they have not yet reached the level where they can receive dals.
Zhukov obviously wanted to use these to prove that the Fifth Infantry Company was a normal unit, and he wanted to create a model unit for deserters.
These dals were awarded by Shulka himself.
Because of the ergency of the military situation, Shulka chose to award them the fifth infantry company when they were withdrawn.
However, only eight were issued in the end, because two soldiers had died on the battlefield during this period.
Shuerka couldn't forget the mont when he put on the dals for several soldiers. All the soldiers of the Fifth Infantry Company shed tears, without exception.
Their faces were blackened on the battlefield, tears flowed and wiped again and again, and their entire faces were covered with flowers, which looked a little funny, like children who were punished after playing in the mud for a day.
But no one can laugh seeing them like this.
Because everyone knows what they paid for today and this mont.
It is true that soldiers in other units also paid the sa, but at least they did not experience the feeling of being abandoned and marginalized...A considerable part of the deserters were unwilling to surrender to the German army.
If you consider this matter from the perspective of the "punishnt battalion", they can almost say that they have no way to survive. If there is any way to survive, they will join the German army.
But a considerable number of people would rather die as a Soviet soldier in the "punishnt camp" than live in a German prison camp.
Otherwise, they should have fled to the Germans rather than trying to escape to the east coast through the port.
However, the feeling of being cast aside by the motherland is terrible. They feel that the world has no place for them, and at the sa ti they have lost their support and belief in survival, just like rootless duckweed drifting with the tide.
"Thank you, Comrade Captain!" Sokolov excitedly shook Shulka's hand, and Shulka could even feel his hands trembling with excitent.
"You didn't lie to us!" Sokolov said: "You helped us win these, honor, belief, and other things. So things, you only know how precious they are after you lose them. Now, we take them again." ca back…"
"No, Comrade Sokolov!" Shulka replied: "You earned it yourself, and you deserve it! Besides..."
Speaking, Shulka took out the two dals and supporting docunts that had not been issued and handed them to Sokolov, saying, "I hope you can give these two dals to their families!"
Sokolov nodded and gave Shulka a hug in gratitude.
Sokolov knows what this ans. dals may be a trivial matter to others, especially this kind of Red Star dal. It has issued a total of 3.87 million pieces. It can be said that it is a very common and very common kind of dal.
However, it is very important to the soldiers of the 5th Infantry Company, because it is almost an affirmation of their identity, and even their family's identity.
If necessary, their family mbers can produce dals and docunts to prove that they are not family mbers of "traitors to the motherland".
Of course Sokolov knew the deep aning of Shulka, and so did others.
So, when Shuerka left, everyone spontaneously stood up to Shuerka, and gave a military salute in an upright manner.
Another benefit of the 5th Infantry Company being a model unit was that their supplies were normalized.
This is also Zhukov's instruction, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to improve the supplies of a "punishnt battalion" at this ti.
But with a reason, it is different from the order of the superior. Even if Stalingrad is short of supplies, it will not be short of equipnt for a reinforced company.
As a result, food was quickly rationed normally, and equipnt such as machine guns, heavy machine guns, mortars, and rocket launchers were divided into three batches and arrived within a day.
This caught Sokolov a little off guard.
As I said before, the quality of the Fifth Infantry Company is not high, and the use of rifles by the whole company does not require the cooperation of different equipnt to function normally. Once various equipnt is incorporated into the army, it will be a bit confusing, especially the rocket launcher... There were not many bazooka shooters to be found among the deserters.
This is due to the fact that the bazooka has just been equipped with the Soviet army, and the bazooka is given priority to equipnt with strong combat effectiveness. The deserters and the soldiers of the "punishnt battalion" have only heard of the bazooka but have never even touched the bazooka.
As a last resort, Shulka could only ask Valery to pull the Fifth Infantry Company off the battlefield and concentrate on training for a few days.
What Shulka didn't expect was that this kind of training continued for a long ti after it started and even beca the tradition of the 82nd Infantry Regint.
The reason is that deserters or "punishnt battalion" soldiers have fled to the 82nd Infantry Regint...
On this day, Shulka was discussing the counterattack at night with Major Mikhailvich and others facing the map.
Because there will be new situations in the tug-of-war on the battlefield every day, the position of the defense line and the deploynt of the enemy's troops and firepower are different, so every night's counterattack must analyze specific problems and formulate a different counterattack plan according to the actual situation.
However, because the Soviet army is familiar with the terrain and there are many underground passages that can be used, it is difficult for the enemy to find the location of these underground passages even if they are reused... Climbing out of the passage in the dark, the German army is often chaotically attacked by internal and external attacks before they can react. It was too late to find the passageway.
Therefore, the Soviet army can always take the initiative and gain an advantage at night.
At this mont, Andrianka reported: "Comrade Shulka, dozens of people have joined us!"
Major Mikhailvich frowned, and replied without raising his head: "This kind of thing does not need to be reported, Comrade Andrianka, just lock it up with the prisoners of war!"
"But..." Andrianka said: "They are our own people!"
