Chapter 37: small report

Chapter 37 Small Report

While Major Gavrilov and the political commissar were busy organizing other troops and assigning tasks, Shulka sat next to Pukarev with two gas masks.

"Comrade Shulka!" Pukarev asked. "Any instructions?"

Shulka couldn't help being taken aback, he obviously felt that Pukarev's attitude was different from before.

"That's right, Comrade Dashi!" Shulka handed Pukarev a gas mask: "We're going to give everyone a gas mask and make sure they all use it!"

Pukarev took a look at the gas mask and replied, "We all know how to use it, unless you can't!"

"Do you have any opinion on me, Comrade Dashi?" Shulka asked suspiciously.

"No, how dare I?" Pukarev met Shulka's gaze: "You don't seem to understand something, Shulka...At this moment, I mean, we are all going to die sooner or later, so I don't Don't be afraid of snitches! Come on, Shulka, I don't want to use the damned thing!"

As he spoke, Pukarev stuffed the gas mask back into Shulka's arms and walked to the other side.

"Small report?" Shulka sounded a little puzzled, and then he quickly understood that Pukarev had misunderstood.

"You think I'm making a small report?" Shulka spread his hands.

Pukarev asked without raising his eyes, "Isn't it? Tell me, what's your excuse? You bastard!"

"That's right, Comrade Dashi!" Shulka said: "I did make a 'small report', but..."

Shulka took out a map from his pocket, spread it out and walked up to Pukarev, handed it over, pointed to the Holm Rope Bridge and said, "My 'little report' made the major decide to let us sort out the map." Take the Holm Rope Bridge!"

Pukarev raised his head in surprise, and looked at Shulka with disbelief.

"What did you say? Capture Holm Rope Bridge? Our platoon? It's impossible..."

At this moment, Major Gavrilov came back and asked: "Shurka, have you told Comrade Pukarev about the mission?"

"Yes!" said Shulka, "but Comrade Dashi doesn't believe it!"

Major Gavrilov laughed: "Yes, of course, I didn't believe it before that either! But..."

Major Gavrilov patted Pukarev on the shoulder: "You have a very smart subordinate, Comrade Pukarev, and his plan may save all of our lives! So, these are true of!"

Then Major Gavrilov looked at his watch and shook his head at Shulka, saying: "I will leave this part to you. Time is running out. We must arrange other troops!"

"Yes, Major!" Shulka replied.

After a long pause, Pukarev said, "So, I misunderstood you?"

Shuerka shrugged and replied: "Comrade Dashi, as you said, I can't survive anyway. Do you think I will be stupid enough to make a small report at this time? Or against you?"

"I knew it, Shulka!" Pukarev immediately became happy. He jumped up and gave Shulka a hard punch, then grabbed Shulka's head and shook it vigorously a few times: " If you dare to report me, I'll wring your head off your neck!"

Shulka, who was dizzy from being shaken, couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart... This is the way the Soviets apologize.

Soon the entire platoon of twenty-seven people was gathered together, first of all, each of them was given a PPD submachine gun... It can be predicted that after lurking on the opposite bank, more close combat will be used, and it is still dark, submachine guns are definitely more useful than rifles.

In order to cooperate with other troops, Shulka got a waterproof watch in addition to a submachine gun.

For some reason, after putting on the watch, Shulka suddenly had a feeling of solidity in his heart, and he finally found something certain.

Then the gas masks were sent out, and Shulka explained to them the modification method of the gas masks and the whole plan.

After listening, everyone was stunned.

"Comrade squad leader!" The veteran asked, "You didn't come up with this plan, did you?"

"You guessed it!" Shulka replied: "But it's thanks to the thief!"

"Me?" Fovalikov raised his head in confusion.

"The gas mask you threw!" Shulka said, "It inspired me!"

Fovalikov smiled awkwardly and replied: "Stop it, Comrade Squad Leader. I just took it as a joke, but you came up with such a plan..."

Everyone around laughed.

"God, so we still have hope of breaking through!"

"We might make it out alive!"



Although the result is not yet known, at least this is a feasible path for them, so the soldiers instantly gained confidence, like plants that had been drought for a long time suddenly came to life like a good rain.

According to the plan, the first step is to dive into the river.

Shulka and Pukarev took the soldiers back to the original place, packed their luggage and set off.

"Do you have a mission?" Agata asked.

"Yes!" Shulka replied while putting a waterproof bag on his backpack.

"What task?" Agata asked again.

"Get water!" Shulka raised his head towards the bucket next to him.

"Don't try to lie to me!" Agata said: "When no one fetches water, he will bring two bricks!"

"You will know soon!" Shulka picked up the bucket and walked out.

Agata shouted behind him: "What about the 'last moment'?"

Shuerka waved his hand back without looking back, and replied: "Maybe there won't be any 'last minute'!"

The first task is indeed to fetch water, but it is not fetching water.

To be precise, they were mixed in the water fetching team and approached the river bank.

There are three batches in total, one squad for each batch. The real water fetching troops are in the front, and the commandos are in the back... As soon as the enemy's gunshots rang out, the commandos fell to the ground and pretended to be dead.

Needless to say what happened next, when the Germans were not paying attention, they slowly crawled to the river bank and hid in the river.

Shuerka was the first batch, and the process went very smoothly. What needs attention is that when the searchlight shines on it, he lies still and disguises himself as a corpse.

It is not so easy to climb over one **** corpse after another, especially some corpses have begun to emit a stench and there are many flies and mosquitoes flying around it.

This made Shulka almost vomit, but he held back in the end, because he knew that any sound could trigger a burst of fire from the enemy.

Shuerka wanted to hide in the river quickly, but when he hid in the river, he realized that things were not as good as he imagined... The river water was a bit cold in the middle of the night, so he should consider keeping warm in advance.
