Chapter 101: panic

??Chapter 101 Panic

??Shuerka guessed right, the 9th Mechanized Army was divided and isolated in units of divisions.

??The motorized 131st Division where Shulka is located is arranged in a row of warehouses for storing supplies...the materials in the warehouses have long been transported to Kyiv for scattered storage.

?? Now that the war has been fought, everyone knows that these precious things cannot be exposed on the ground, otherwise they will soon be blown up by the enemy like the warehouse of the Brest Fortress.

The warehouse door was closed tightly, and even the windows were nailed up with wooden boards by the guards from the outside. It was dark inside, only a few large fans were left whirring, and there seemed to be people passing through the fan blades. Swirling rays.

??In addition, all radio stations and other communication tools owned by the army were registered and confiscated. It can be said that there is no chance to contact the outside world at all.

?? This created a panic in the warehouse because the soldiers feared that this was some kind of punishment and mistrust of the unit... It was not long after the 79th Division, and they were all worried that they would be the next 79th Division.

?? Among them, the thief asked several times.

?? "Comrade Sergeant!" The thief asked, "Is it possible that we have a spy, so..."

?? "I think it may be more serious!" The actor said: "If it's just spies, we don't need to be locked up here..."

?? "Don't think about these useless things!" Shulka said: "Look at what you are holding in your hands. If it is like what you think...you should disarm first!"

?? "Comrade platoon leader is right!" The veteran replied: "The gun is safe in our hands!"

??The soldiers were relieved after hearing this, but Leonyev said again: "Maybe, they will order us to hand over our weapons later!"

??The soldiers were immediately frightened again so that you looked at me and I looked at you.

?? Shulka is angry and funny, which can be said to be a kind of sequelae. The Soviet soldiers obviously did nothing wrong but they have to worry about this and that.

?? But this seems to be normal, because before that, there were also people who did nothing wrong, and even the Soviet marshals became "traitors" one after another. How could they not be afraid as small soldiers? !

??Until the order was passed down from the company commander: "All rest, there is a secret mission!"

??As soon as the voice fell, Shulka immediately felt that almost everyone in the warehouse breathed a sigh of relief, and then the atmosphere quickly relaxed, although the warehouse was dark and nothing could be seen.

"Secret mission" is a very good explanation of the reason why they are now locked in the warehouse, and it also eliminates the panic and doubts of the soldiers... Shulka thinks that the superiors said this on purpose, because they also felt the uneasiness of the troops .

Another surprise to Shulka was that the troops did not return to Kyiv by transport ship as Shulka thought... Shulka simply thought that the tanks and cars of the mechanized troops returning from the Kyiv bridge were too public, so It is easy to be discovered by German spies, so if you want to hide it, you have to take a boat.

?? Unexpectedly, Admiral Kirponos used another method: the train.

After thinking about it, Shulka also felt that the train was indeed more suitable for hiding. Cars, tanks, etc. were driven on the flatbed, and then they were fixed and then piled up some boxes next to them or built some shelves and covered them with canvas... No one It can be seen that the transport is tanks and cars. (Note: The shelf is to hide the shape of cars and tanks)

?? On the contrary, if it is transported by ship, it is going to the dock and then loaded and unloaded. After entering Kyiv, it still takes a long way to reach the destination, and it is difficult to ensure that there is no leakage.

??But by train... the troops come from this side, and then go all the way to the destination tractor factory through the railway bridge.

??The workers in the tractor factory have been emptied by Admiral Kirponos due to combat needs, leaving a large factory building and warehouse enough for the entire 9th Army to station. There is a fence outside the factory building, which is very convenient for management.

??The more important thing is...the tractor factory, there is always a knocking sound inside, even if there is a "rumbling" motor sound, it will not attract the attention of others, and their first reaction will be that it is a tractor.

?? As a result, tanks, tractors, etc. were quickly transported into the factory.

??At the beginning, the soldiers didn't know where they were, because they were almost all "blindfolded" along the way.

?? Of course, this is not really "blindfolded", but after the car is fixed on the train, the fighters enter the car.

??First of all, the canvas cover on the car is tight, and then a few boxes are tied on the outside and then covered with a layer of canvas. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as airtight.

??It was summer at this time. Although the temperature was not high at night when they were transported back, more than 30 people were crowded into a pile in a car and were tightly wrapped. It felt like being suffocated in a basement.

??During this period, the soldiers wanted to jump out of the car several times and lift the canvas to get some air. Among them, the Cossack, who was a bit pretentious, even encouraged his subordinates to do so.

?? "We're suffocating!"

?? "They must not know what's going on with us!"

?? "Even if you poke a few holes in the canvas!"

??…

"I don't know the reason, but this is an order from the superior!" Shulka said: "Think about what will happen if the whole secret mission goes bankrupt because of the abnormal behavior of one or two people! If you don't Believe me, I won't stop you!"

?? Saying that, Shulka spread his hands towards them.

??After Shulka said this, no one dared to move, including the Cossack... Although it was uncomfortable in the carriage, it was nothing compared to being shot.

?? Facts have proved that Shulka is right, because some people in other vehicles did not resist getting out of the car and opening the canvas... In fact, they did not fully open it, but only opened a corner for ventilation, and nothing was exposed in the dark.

??If this is the case, maybe nothing will happen.

??However, at this time, the Soviet army will never lack snitchers, and the few soldiers who got out of the car to breathe were immediately controlled.

?? Shulka didn't know what happened next, only that no one saw these soldiers again.

?? The Cossack felt a little terrified because of this. Although he didn't say anything, his face was full of embarrassment and displeasure... He should have been happy because he saved his life.

??The problem is that some people tend not to think about it from this perspective.

??The Cossack's actions are actually challenging Shulka's command, or proving that he still has control over his gang of Cossacks.

??However, this incident made Shulka's prestige more stable, because the group of Cossacks even complained about their squad leader:

?? "Look at what you did, we were almost killed by you!"

?? "It's a good thing I didn't listen to you, comrade monitor!"

??…

?? This is of course what Shulka is happy to see.
