Chapter 656: Heavy Thunderstorm Twenty


For three days, June 6, June 7 and June 8, the Warsaw front appeared relatively calm.

Neither the German nor the Soviet army launched an offensive, but seized the time to dispatch troops.

Although the German 6th Army received a lot of reinforcements, it would take a few days for these troops to arrive.

Until then, Moder had to endure and continue to work as a shrunken turtle in Warsaw.

And for the Soviet army, the most important thing now is to open the railway and the main road communication line from Brest to the city of Warsaw.

In this way, more troops and baggage could be transported to the Warsaw front as quickly as possible.

At the same time, such a straight line of traffic is also very easy to protect, and it is much easier to get than the current traffic line with seven turns and eight bends.

Therefore, Comrade Solzhenitsyn's 4th Army was sent to attack another ring fortress.

Shells, they got a very fat errand to help the comrades of the Polish Bolshevik Party to establish grassroots power, and at the same time to confiscate a little bit of horses, cattle and sheep, sausages, butter, cheese, vegetables and wine from the Polish landlords and rich peasants, not because the Red Army was not supplied with logistics, and now the war has just begun, and the Soviet Union will not have enough food to supply the front now.

However, the Soviet Red Army has a tradition of confiscation, they don't talk about anything, they don't take a stitch or a thread, they don't take anything, they don't take anything, they don't get anything, so they always fight wherever they go, they don't receive anything.

And where are the things that are logistically supplied and confiscated in Poland, Poland has always been the breadbasket of Europe, and there are many delicious things "The village looks very wealthy," said Solzhenitsyn, riding a horse that had been confiscated from nowhere, and walking at the front of the line with a Polish Bolshevik cadre who had just been released from a Siberian labor camp.

For the first five days of his stay on white Polish territory, Solzhenitsyn was busy marching and fighting, paying little attention to the plight of the Polish people.

In the last two days, however, he turned to "local work" and discovered that the Polish countryside west of the Bug River was very wealthy.

The houses were beautifully repaired, the food was abundant, and every household had some industrial products that looked significantly better than those of the Soviet Union.

Clocks, bicycles, radios, cameras, and so on.

In addition, the men and women are dressed more decently, and their complexions are very ruddy, and it is impossible to see who the working people are in dire straits.

Oh, and it's not that there are people who look like working people.

Comrade Lewandowski, a cadre of the Polish Bolshevik Party, who is now working with Solzhenitsyn, is bitter and bitter at first glance, he is very thin, the cheekbones on his face are protruding, his back is a little hunched, and one arm is not very convenient, it is said that he was injured while working, and Solzhenitsyn guessed that this Polish must have been a serf in the landlord's family when he was young.

"Poland is so rich," Lewandowski shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "the Swiss countryside is called rich, and you will know when Switzerland is liberated in the future." ” Of course, the working people of Switzerland, in dire straits, also wanted to be liberated, according to the plan, just after the liberation of Germany.

Now the Third International is looking for Swiss revolutionaries who want to be great leaders to form the Swiss Bolshevik Party.

"Switzerland, you've been to Switzerland," Solzhenitsyn was stunned.

"Yes, I studied in Switzerland when I was younger."

Lewandowski sighed and said with some emotion, "I came into contact with Marxism at the Federal Technical University of Zuli. ” Studying in Switzerland turned out to be not a serf, how could he grow so progressive?"

Solzhenitsyn took a closer look at the Polish comrades who grew bitter and hateful.

At the mention of ETH Zurich, Lewandowski didn't know why, his eyes turned red, and he stopped talking, as if he had thought of something sad.

Solzhenitsyn guessed that this cadre of the Polish Bolshevik Party must have suffered a lot in Switzerland "Comrade squad leader, do you see Warsaw" "I saw the buildings belonging to the city of Warsaw, comrades, we have reached the city of Warsaw" In a small town called Sureovik, only seventeen or eighteen kilometers from the center of Warsaw, Yakovpavlov, the machine gun squad leader of the 1st Company of the 1st Reconnaissance Battalion of the 205th Infantry Division of the Red Army, saw the city of Warsaw in the distance for the first time on the roof of a Catholic church.

The 205th Division of the Red Army, now part of the 12th Army of the Red Army, now replaced the 9th Mechanized Army and became the vanguard of the advance to Warsaw.

Even on June 6 and 8, when the main forces were resting, they did not stop advancing, but advanced from Minsk, Poland, to Sureovik, which can be regarded as the gateway to Warsaw.

This will be the starting point for the final assault of the Red Army on the city of Warsaw Although the terrain of Sureovik was important, it was contrary to the expectations of the commander of the 205th Division, Major General Joludev, and Political Commissar Oktyabrysky, and the march to Sureovik was very smooth, with almost no resistance from the Germans, only several bombardments on the road, the loss of dozens of fighters and a dozen vehicles.

Oh, and it wasn't that there was no resistance, and when entering Suleovik, a dozen vicious Polish reactionaries fired at the Red Army fighters with rifles, killing 2 people and wounding 3 others.

Now the 205th Division is searching for reactionaries throughout the city, and Pavlov's machine-gun squad is ordered to break into the largest church in Suleovik to arrest reactionaries.

However, Pavlov and the others did not catch a single stick in the empty cathedral, and it turned out that these people had already retreated on the orders of the Archbishop of Warsaw.

"Comrade division commander, comrade political commissar."

Pavlov was stretching his neck to look at the scenery when he heard someone behind him shouting "division commander" and "political commissar", and he knew that it must be the two bosses of the 205th Division who were coming.

Quickly turned around, and saw Major General Joludev and Commissar Oktyablisky walking into the attic where he was, which was the commanding height of the entire city of Sureovik, and standing here, he could see many tall buildings in the city of Warsaw.

"Salute" Pavlov gave a military salute, and then quietly left, not daring to disturb the division commander and comrade political commissar to observe the enemy situation.

"Comrade commissar, Warsaw is just around the corner," Major General Viktor Roludev, commander of the 205th Division, observed with a telescope for a while, and then said to Oktyabliski beside him, "What is standing in front of us now is a large forest, and the Polish reactionaries know that their country is not in danger, so they keep a large forest to the east of Warsaw, and it is ridiculous to want to block the wheel of history with trees." ” Poland is the terrain of a great plain, but it is not a "treeless plain", but a plain full of forests.

Before it was developed, the Polish plain was a large temperate forest.

The forests to the east of Warsaw, on the other hand, have long been hunting and playing places for Polish monarchs, so they have not been cut down on a large scale.

After Pilsudski came to power, because he knew that there would be a war between the Soviet Union and Poland, he put national defense first in everything, and cutting down trees was no exception.

The forests east of Warsaw are "protected areas" where logging is prohibited because they shelter the city of Warsaw.

Moreover, in this forest east of Warsaw, Pilsudski had a large number of fortifications built.

All roads through the forest, whether by road, rail, or whatever, are lined with layers of defensive positions in front of them.

And this situation, the Red Army Intelligence Bureau has long inquired clearly.

The road into Warsaw from the east is not easy If the Germans were ready to defend Warsaw, then the "Warsaw Forest" would surely be the place where the two sides fought a bloody battle.

Private Willy Brandt, of the 3rd Company and 2nd Platoon of the 406th Regiment of the 111th Infantry Division of the Wehrmacht, was at this time very depressed and half-kneeling in an infantry fortification in the Warsaw forest near the city of Sureovik, holding a KB42 automatic carbine and holding a cigarette in his mouth.

Unlike the high-spirited German Superman fighters around him, Brandt was actually an anti-war activist.

He was born Herbert Ernst Calfram and was raised by his grandfather, who believed in the Social Democrats.

Under the influence of his maternal grandfather, he joined the Socialist Youth League at the age of 15 and became a member of the Social Democratic Party in 1930.

But it didn't take long for the militarists in Germany to join forces with the Nazi Party to seize power, and they also passed transitional justice ordinances to politically hunt down the anti-war Social Democrats and Bolsheviks.

Fram, who was extremely disillusioned with German politics, left Germany under the pseudonym Brandt and went to Norway to join the Norwegian Workers' Party and become a journalist.

Published articles specifically in the Norwegian Workers' newspaper saying bad things about Hitler's government.

In 1937 he also participated in the Spanish Civil War as a war correspondent, covering the atrocities of the fascists.

But in 1940, something happened that made him feel hopeless.

Germany defeated France and became the dominant player on the continent, while the Norwegian Workers' Party was outlawed by the National Unionist Party, which came to power in a coup.

However, Brandt was not arrested, but received a conscription notice from the Selective Service Department of the German Ministry of Defense.

He had wanted to take refuge in Sweden, but Swedish customs told him that he had to show a document exempt from military service in order to enter the country legally.

In order to avoid imprisonment or imprisonment in a concentration camp, Brandt could only honestly report to the office of the German Military Service Bureau in Norway, and became a criminal Nazi German soldier, and the German Military Service Bureau did not know that he was an anti-war activist Brandt, only that he was a German citizen living in Norway Fram, but if he refused to serve and was arrested, then other crimes could be revealed, and then he would have to go to the concentration camp for labor reform. t1706231537:
