USSR 1941

Gavrilov ordered the communications corps to set up a radio and make a call.

"If..." Major Gavrilov said: "If our troops can launch a counterattack against the enemy at the same time, we still have a chance!"

Gavrilov was right, because this was a two-sided attack, and it was night, and the German tanks were bound to be thrown into chaos.

The problem is that the Soviet army is retreating, and they are still retreating to the "Stalin Line of Defense" for defense. More importantly... the radio station is still the same as usual, and nothing can be contacted.

"We don't have time!" Political Commissar Fuming looked at his watch, shook his head and said, "Even if we contact the friendly forces now, they won't be able to organize a counterattack within 20 minutes!"

The reaction speed of the Soviet army in this era is well known, especially when it is retreating in a hurry.

"Then there is only one way!" Major Gavrilov stood up straight, tightened the belt around his waist, and said, "Get some more grenades, let's fight there!"

"Yes, Major!"

"yes!"

...

Without saying a word, the Soviet soldiers took out grenades from the ammunition box and pinned them to their waists, even Agata and other female soldiers were no exception.

But later Shulka learned that Agata and these female soldiers were not using the grenades to fight the Germans, but for themselves.

Only Shulka stood still. He looked at the German cars, and then at the captives who were sitting on the ground and looked at the Soviets with terrified eyes... These prisoners obviously knew better. If these Russians If they plan to put all their eggs in one basket, then their lives will not last long.

Sure enough, a Soviet soldier asked, "Major, what about these prisoners?"

Major Gavrilov replied without thinking: "Send these invaders to hell!"

"Yes, Major!" said the soldiers, pulling the bolts and raising their guns.

"No no, stop! Put down the gun!" Shulka stopped them.

"What's the matter, Shulka?" The Cossack sneered: "You feel sorry for these Fritz?" (Fritz is the name of the Soviet army for German soldiers)

Many Soviet officers and soldiers cast doubtful glances at Shulka, including Major Gavrilov and Commissar Fomin.

"Why don't we pretend to be in the enemy's line?" Shulka said: "Use these prisoners!"

"Masquerading?" Major Gavrilov said puzzledly, "You mean pretending to be a German?"

"Yes!"

"But we don't have German uniforms, Shulka!" interrupted Agata, "and we..."

Speaking of which, Agata waved her hands behind her, and the female soldier behind her was even wearing civilian clothes.

"Agata is right!" Major Gavrilov agreed. "Camouflage may be a good way, but we don't have time to get so many uniforms and equipment!"

"There's also German and other things!" Commissar Fumin said, "They only need to ask us a few words to reveal their flaws!"

They were right. There were more than 500 soldiers in the Soviet army, which meant that they needed 500 sets of military uniforms and equipment, as well as certificates. It was indeed difficult to get through.

but……

"We don't need a disguise!" Shulka said.

"What do you mean you don't need to pretend?" Major Gavrilov was at a loss. "You mean...we just walked over like this, and then told the Germans that we belonged to them?"

"Yes!" Shulka replied, "almost so!"

Major Gavrilov was stunned for a moment, and then the soldiers around him burst out laughing with a "coax".

"You must be crazy, Shulka!" said Major Gavrilov. "You should know that we don't have much time left. It's not funny at all!"

"I'm not joking, Comrade Major!" said Shulka, "and I'm not crazy,

I know what I'm talking about! "

"Then..." Major Gavrilov asked angrily, "Tell me, why do the Germans believe us? Look at our uniforms, rifles, and our faces!"

"It's because of this that they believe us!" Shulka didn't know how to explain for a while.

"You are taking us to our death, Shulka!" The Cossack fanned the flames.

Commissar Fumin raised his hand to signal the soldiers to be quiet, and then said to Shulka: "The point is, Shulka, why do they believe us?"

"Because of the Brandenburg detachment!" Shulka replied: "The Germans were fully prepared for the war. Before the war, they trained a group of 'Soviets' who could be faked. They spoke Russian and wore our military uniforms. , even drinking vodka and spitting like us..."

When Shulka said this, everyone fell silent.

Soviet soldiers have heard of this, because the Germans did this when they blitzed Poland and European countries.

Major Gavrilov was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear for a long time. He looked at Shulka with a look of astonishment, and asked: "You mean... we are pretending to be Germans pretending to be us. ?”

The words were a little rambling, but Shulka understood.

"Yes!" Shulka replied: "That's what I mean!"

"But why do they believe this?" Commissar Fuming asked.

This question is on point. It is impossible to say that the Soviet army just walked forward and told them that they were Germans from the Brandenburg unit and believed them.

Shulka raised his head towards the German prisoners on the ground and said, "That's why I said...their cooperation is needed!"

Major Gavrilov and Commissar Fumin looked at each other, then nodded, realizing that this might be the only way to survive.

Preparations were made quickly.

In fact, the Soviet army did not need to make any preparations, because all they had to do was dress up as themselves.

If there is any preparatory work, it is to empty out all the supplies in the car, and throw away the German grenades, explosive kits and everything related to the German army just now... Brandenburg The detachment will not sneak into the Soviet army with anything related to Germany, which will be suspicious, so it is also a loophole for Soviet soldiers.

"But..." Venyakov said with some guilt: "What if we don't speak German?"

"Then speak Russian!" Shulka replied.

"Are you sure we can fool these Germans?" Agata's face paled.

"I'm not sure!" Shulka replied, "But we'll just have to try!"

This is true, they really have no other choice but to give it a go.

What Shulka didn't say is...whether the Germans can be fooled, the most important point is whether the Soviet soldiers are calm.
