Red Moscow.

Chapter 2659

When Sokov said this, he felt like he was on the verge of tears. Isn't he unlucky? The last time he went to Berlin, the train was attacked by bandits in Poland. Fortunately, there were soldiers escorting the train. As well as carrying sufficient ammunition, the gangsters not only failed to succeed, but were beaten to a pulp. As soon as reinforcements and artillery arrived, the gangsters who participated were beaten to ashes.

Today we were actually attacked at the border between Hungary and Austria. Except for a few of us who were able to defend ourselves, the rest of the people in the car were just lambs to be slaughtered. So far, passengers in at least five carriages have died under the knife of gangsters. If reinforcements don't arrive in time, the outcome won't be much better once one's own ammunition is used up.

"Major," Sokov said to Vaserigov: "You and Serelkov stay, monitor the enemy, maintain contact with the outside world, and urge reinforcements to arrive as soon as possible. Seryosha and I went to the car behind to see Look, try to stop the gangsters from coming."

When Sokov took Seryosha past his box, he was surprised to find thick smoke coming out of the box. It looked like a grenade thrown in by the gangsters from the roof, causing something in the box to catch fire. Worried that something might happen to Kopalova, he quickly covered his nose and mouth with his sleeves and rushed in quickly.

 He came to the bathroom door, knocked on the door twice with his hand, and asked urgently: "Kopalova, Kopalova, are you okay?"

When there was no movement inside, Sokov became anxious and quickly knocked on the door a few more times, but there was still no reply.

At this time, Sokov was completely panicked. He pushed open the door and rushed into the bathroom. He found Kopalova curled up on the ground, motionless. He quickly stretched out his hand to detect the other person's breath, and felt that there was still a faint breath. He quickly took a deep breath, bent down and picked up Kopalova, and ran quickly to the corridor.

Seeing Sokov running out of the box holding Kopalova, Seryosha asked in surprise: "Misha, what's wrong with Kopalova?"

"I don't know. When I entered, she was on the floor of the bathroom." Sokov originally wanted to put Kopalova here for first aid, but he was worried that an enemy would pop up from nowhere and take a cold shot, so he couldn't help but worry: "Thank you. Liao Sha, can you find a safer place?"

“Let’s go to the bathroom at the junction of the carriages.” Seryosha suggested: “There should be no danger there.”

Of the compartments on the train, only a few high-end compartments are equipped with toilets. If people in ordinary compartments want to use the toilet, they can only go to the toilet at the train junction.

Sokov followed Seryosha’s suggestion and carried Kopalova to the bathroom at the joint.

Before entering the bathroom, Sokov said to Seryosha: "Seryosa, hurry up to the dining car and help the two soldiers defend themselves. I'm worried that their strength is too weak. Once the gangsters launch a strong attack, they won't be able to withstand it. ”

 “Okay, I’ll go there now.”

The bathroom here was too small. Sokov couldn't let Kopalova lie down, so he could only hold her in his arms, pour cold water on her face, hoping she would heal quickly. Wake up.

I don’t know how long it took, but Kopalova finally let out a sigh and slowly opened her eyes. Looking at Sokov holding herself, Kopalova weakly asked: "Misha, where am I?"

"When I just walked past the box, I saw black smoke coming out of it. I was worried that you were in danger, so I went in to look for you." Sokov explained to Kopalova: "When I opened the bathroom door, I found You were curled up on the ground, unconscious, so I took you out. Thank God, you finally woke up!"

 “Did the gangsters on the train fight off?”

"Not yet." Sokov shook his head and said: "I estimate that there are quite a few gangsters who got on the bus. With just the strength of a few of us, it may not be easy to eliminate them. So I'm afraid it's still It will take a while for reinforcements to arrive. "

"Comrade Commander, Comrade Commander." At this time, Serelkov hurried over, stood at the door and reported to Sokov: "Major Vasergov has just made contact with the 20th Guards Infantry Corps. They Upon learning that you were in danger, we immediately dispatched a mechanized battalion to rush over as quickly as possible for reinforcements.”

"That's great, Misha, that's great." After listening to Serelkov's words, Kopalova showed an expression of surprise on her face, "The 20th Guards Infantry Corps is the subordinate unit of the 1st Guards Army. They When I learn that the commander is in danger on the road, I will definitely come over as quickly as possible.”

But Sokov didn't think so in his heart. Yes, he was the commander of the 4th Guard Army appointed by his superiors, but he has not officially taken up the post so far. Whether those subordinates agree with him is still unknown. Rushing over quickly to provide support may be just a polite word, but it really shouldn't be taken seriously.

Thinking of this, Sokov said to Serelkov: "Captain, go back and tell Major Vaserigov to find a way to contact General Malinin and report to him that I am in danger here. Only if he comes forward can we Get out of danger in the shortest possible time.”

"What about Budapest?" Serelkov reminded cautiously after Sokov finished speaking: "We are only sixty or seventy kilometers away from the city. If General Trofimenko sends troops, they can get there in the shortest time. Arrive within the time required.”

"Captain Serelkov, haven't you understood it yet?" Sokov suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "The area where we encountered the attack happened to be at the junction of Hungary and Vienna. It can be said that there is no control between the two. Zone. When we expected General Trofimenko to send people to rescue us, he also thought that our troops stationed in Austria would come to reinforce us. "

 “What should we do?”

Sokov sighed softly and continued: "At this point, we can only take one step at a time. You should return to Major Vaserigov immediately. When he sends a telegram to the outside world, if he encounters the enemy, Attack, but there is no way to fight back.”

 “Okay, I’ll go there now.”

After Serelkov left, Kopalova showed a horrified expression on her face: "Misha, is it true that no one cares about us anymore, and are we going to let us die in the hands of gangsters? I'm still so young, I'm still Don’t want to die.”

"Kopalova, don't worry." Seeing Kopalova's pitiful appearance, Sokov quickly comforted her and said: "As long as I am still by your side, you will not be in any danger. You first Stay here for a while, I’ll go to the dining car to check on the situation and then come back.”

When Sokov stood up to leave, he was worried that some gangsters would break through the window and enter the carriage after he left. He couldn't help but stop, turned around and asked Kopalova: "Do you still have the pistol I gave you?"

"Yes." Kopalova took out two pistols from her pocket and said to Sokov: "I just put the guns in my windbreaker pocket."

"You hide here and don't make a sound." Sokov warned Kopalova: "As long as you see a stranger trying to approach you, you will not hesitate to shoot. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Sokov reached out and touched Kopalova's head, then walked toward the dining car with the weapon in his hand.

After entering the dining car, Sokov saw a lot of things piled up at the door on the other side of the dining car. If the gangsters wanted to rush in, they must first clear away the things blocking the way, otherwise they would have to become Seryosha Target for others.

Seryosha, who was watching the door, heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Sokov.

 After Sokov came over, he asked eagerly: "How is Kopalova? Is she awake?"

"She's awake." Sokov said, "She must have been knocked out by the smoke. I poured some cold water on her and she woke up, but her mental state is not ideal yet."

“You should stay with her instead of coming to us.”

"I'm not worried." Sokov continued: "So far, the reinforcements have not arrived. As for us, we can't figure out how many bandits there are. If we continue to fight, we will probably get rid of them after we run out of ammunition. The whole army will not end up being annihilated.”

“Why, haven’t the reinforcements from Budapest arrived yet?”

"No." Sokov shook his head and said: "Our location is exactly at the junction of Hungary and Austria. Should the troops from Budapest come to rescue us, or should the troops from Vienna come to rescue us? I'm afraid the superiors There is still debate. There will definitely be no reinforcements until they reach an agreement."

"Then what should we do?" Seryosha asked anxiously: "Are we just waiting to die?"

"What else can you do? Under such circumstances, do you still want to break out?" Sokov was worried that Seryosha really had such an idea, so he decided to put an end to his unrealistic fantasies in advance: "There is nothing else. "If we break out, the gangsters hiding on the roof of the train will be our biggest threat. If they hadn't kept throwing grenades into my box, I wouldn't have come out."

As soon as Sokov finished speaking, he heard a "bang" and a car window not far away was smashed. Before he and Seryosha could react, a grenade with white smoke rolled into the dining car.

"Hide, hide quickly!" After Sokov shouted these words, he immediately huddled behind the dining car table. He knew very well that if he rushed over to pick up the grenade, he would most likely be killed, so the safest method at present was , that is, hiding behind tables and chairs, using tables and chairs to help oneself resist the flying shrapnel.

After the explosion, Sokov didn't wait for the smoke to clear, and asked where the other two guards were hiding: "Are you okay?"

“Comrade General, we are fine.”

Sokov glanced at the roof of the car, thinking that the gangsters would not want to repeat the same trick, so he continued to throw grenades from the roof into the compartment until he was killed.

Thinking of this, Sokov said to Seryosha and the other two guards: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We will move to the next car immediately."

But Seryosha put forward a different view: "Misha, this won't work. If the gangster throws grenades on the roof of the car into the compartment, then he can continue to throw grenades into the next compartment. If he throws the grenade, We will retreat, and then there may be no way out.”

Sokov didn't understand this, but he couldn't think of any good way to deal with the gangsters on the roof of the car, so he asked: "Seryozha, what do you think?"

Seryosha pointed to the roof of the car and said to Sokov: "Misha, the gangster is on the top of the dining car now. If I kill him on the roof from the joint of other cars, won't that eliminate our hidden danger? ?”

Sokov naturally knew that it would be the easiest thing to go up to the roof of the car to eliminate the gangsters, but he was worried about Seryosha's safety: "Seryosa, can you do that?"

“Misha, don’t worry, this kind of thing is just a trivial matter to me. Just wait for me to destroy the enemy.”

In this way, Sokov left the two guards to continue to monitor the enemy in the dining car, and he and Seryosha walked to the car behind. After choosing a suitable carriage, he opened the door and helped Seryozha climb up.

Seryosha carefully climbed onto the roof of the car, bent down to take the assault rifle handed over by Sokov, and then lay on the roof of the car, carefully observing the surrounding environment.

He clearly saw two gangsters squatting on the roof of the dining car. They put their guns on their backs. After pulling the fuse of the grenade, they paused for a moment and threw them directly into the car. After hearing the explosion from below, pull another one and throw it in again.

Seryosha raised his assault rifle, locked the sight on the two men, and suddenly pulled the trigger.

After the rattling gunfire, the gangster holding the grenade swayed and then fell off the roof of the car. Then, there was an explosion from the bottom of the carriage, and countless pieces of meat were blown up in all directions. When another gangster saw that his companion was killed, he quickly lay down on the spot, took off the rifle on his back, and prepared to fire back.

The rifle he used had to pull the bolt to fire a shot, and its rate of fire could not be compared with the assault rifle in Seryosha's hand. After two minutes of shooting, he was shot in the forehead and rolled off the roof of the car without even a grunt.

After killing the gangsters on the roof of the car, Seryosha returned to the carriage and reported to Sokov: "Misha, I have killed the two gangsters on the roof of the car. I believe that in a short time, there will be no more The new gangsters are throwing grenades on the roof of the car, and we can stay in the dining car to organize our defense."

Now that the gangsters on the roof of the car have been eliminated, Sokov feels much more at ease. He said to Seryosha, "You go back to the dining car first, and I'll go see Kopalova."

"Go, go." Seryosha said: "Although she has been on the battlefield, she has never seen a situation like today. She must be frightened. You go to comfort her. I am here in the dining car. Just keep an eye on it and nothing will happen.”

Sokov felt that Seryosha was right. The door on the other side of the dining car was blocked by debris. It might not be easy for the gangsters to break in. Seryosha and the three of them could completely hold it. As for the direction of the front of the car, there were only three or four gangsters occupying the front of the car. They were unable to break through the defenses of the two Vaselgovs. In this way, he can return to Kopalova and accompany her well.

"Misha," as soon as Sokov came to where Kopalova was hiding, Kopalova poked her head out of the bathroom and asked nervously: "How is the situation in front? Why did I hear another explosion? It’s gunfire again, is everything okay with Seryosha and the other three?”
