Chapter 51 History of the Saviev Partisans
As the troops were marching, Lin Hua suddenly remembered something. Kazakov only ordered him to lead his troops to Volokramsk to participate in the battle, but he didn't tell him which senior commander he should report to.Thinking of this, he took out the written order that Kazakov gave him when he parted, and examined it carefully.

Stepan, the deputy platoon leader of the second row who happened to pass by him, saw Lin Hua looking at a piece of paper in his hand with an expression, so he slowed down and asked Lin Hua curiously: "Comrade company commander, what are you looking at?" ?”

Lin Hua shook the note in his hand towards him, and said with a wry smile: "The superior ordered us to rush to Volokramsk to participate in the battle, but he didn't specify who I should report to. You know, according to my experience in the past two days Observe, our troops besieging the city have at least five divisions."

Stepan had known for a long time that there were many numbers of troops outside Volokramsk. Now when he heard that Lin Hua didn't know who to report to when he brought the troops to the place, he couldn't help being taken aback. He hurriedly told Lin Hua Hua said: "Comrade company commander, can I see the order issued by comrade commander?"

After taking the note in Lin Hua's hand, Stepan also read it several times, but also did not find any instructions on who to report to.He handed the note back to Lin Hua, and said cautiously: "Comrade company commander, I think the reason why we didn't specify which unit to command our company is just because we are worried that we won't be able to find the designated army after we rush out of the city. force."

Lin Hua took the note, stuffed it into his pocket, and asked curiously, "Then what should we do?"

"It's very simple," Stepan said with a smile. "When we get outside the city, we can join any army we encounter."

"This is a good idea." Lin Hua felt that Stepan's proposal was good, so that after the troops arrived outside Volokramsk, they would not have to worry about finding the designated troops.

Although he had known Stepan for several days, since he was a taciturn person, the total number of words Lin Hua and he had said was less than ten sentences, so he decided to use this opportunity to strengthen his relationship with him.He asked with a smile in a homely tone, "Where is Comrade Deputy Platoon Commander from?"

"Leningrad," Stepan replied without hesitation, "comrade commander, I am from Leningrad."

"Before the war, where did you work in Leningrad?" Lin Hua continued to ask.

"Comrade company commander, although I am from Leningrad, I don't work there." Stepan smiled and said to Lin Hua: "I have worked in the food factory in Vyazma since 1938. "

Viazma, Lin Hua couldn't help being distracted when he heard this place name.From the moment he met Rokossovsky in this era, he asked himself in his heart, if Konev, the commander of the Western Army at that time, did not give orders to Rokossovsky, but let him Lukin led his own army headquarters to Vyazma to receive troops, so after the end of the Great Patriotic War, the marshal who commanded the military parade on Red Square was Marshal Lukin and not Marshal Rokossovsky .

Seeing that Lin Hua seemed to be thinking about something with his head down, Stepan asked curiously, "Comrade company commander, what are you thinking about?"

"Comrade deputy platoon commander, you just mentioned Vyazma." Stepan's voice woke Lin Hua up from his contemplation.He said in a panic: "A few months ago, the main force of the Western Front Army was surrounded by the enemy there. It is really not easy for you to jump out of the encirclement."

"Company Commander," Stepan said calmly, "Although we were surrounded by the German army, the enemy could not block all the roads. After I escaped from the city with the soldiers from the militia company of the food factory, we entered a deserted village. The forest. We wandered around for a week and met the detachment led by Lieutenant Savyev. After we joined forces, we formed the Savyev guerrillas, with Savyev as the captain and me as the political commissar. Fighting a guerrilla battle with the enemy in the vast forest."

"I heard from Savyev that the reason why your guerrillas are more effective is because half of them are regular troops who have been dispersed." Lin Hua pouted at the marching troops, "But I see that almost all the guerrillas are recruits, and I don't see many veterans."

"There is a reason." Hearing Lin Hua's question, Stepan's expression became serious: "Our guerrilla army had about 300 people in its heyday, including soldiers from the regular army. There are 180 people. However, in order to cooperate with General Panfilov's 316th Infantry Division, that is, the Eighth Guards Division, to defend Volokramsk, we continued to launch raids in the enemy's rear, destroying roads, bridges, burning The enemy's logistics warehouse, etc. The enemy who was hit was furious, so he sent a special regiment to wipe out us. In countless outnumbered battles, our strength was weakened. Although new people continue to join our guerrillas , but our number is getting smaller and smaller...”

After listening to Stepan's narration, Lin Hua finally understood why this guerrilla team with only more than 50 people was equipped with a radio station. After the uninterrupted attack by the German army, its strength was greatly weakened.

Stepan had a good impression of Lin Hua, and unknowingly began to talk more: "Comrade company commander, do you think our troops can take Volokramsk? You know, when the Eighth Guards Division held on to the When the city was captured, the German army dispatched seven divisions, including three armored divisions, and it took more than a month to occupy the city."

"Comrade Stepan, it depends on who is the attacking party and the defending party." Lin Hua waited for the other party to finish speaking, and said with a smile: "If the enemy attacks, we will defend. Two months; but if the Germans defend and we attack, I think a week at most will liberate the city."

The two chatted while marching, and walked five or six kilometers without knowing it.On the right side of the road ahead, you can see a long row of T-34 tanks parked.Seeing so many tanks parked on the side of the road, the soldiers couldn't help pointing and discussing excitedly.

A three-wheeled motorcycle came from the opposite side. Seeing that Lin Hua's army was marching, it stopped at the side of the road.After the car stopped, a captain officer came out of the sidecar. He stood on the side of the road and looked at the troops getting closer to him with his hands behind his back.When the troops walked in front of him, he suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Which part do you belong to?"

Hearing the captain's voice, Lin Hua trotted over quickly, raised his hand in front of him to salute, and reported: "Comrade captain, we are 'Istria Company', and I am the company commander, Lieutenant Sokov."

The captain returned the salute by raising his hand, and then said: "I am the adjutant of Major General Remizov, the commander of the right-wing fast group, and I was ordered to come here to pick you up. Comrade Lieutenant, bring your troops and follow me!"
