MTL - USSR 1941-Chapter 805 Insects

  Chapter 805 Resident Insects

   The return to the barracks was obviously not in a hurry, so Shulka no longer took the "fastest route"... At this time, the Soviet Union did not have much fuel, and it was impossible to send a plane because Shulka was alone.

   Akadyevich, however, arranged for Shulka to have a vehicle to transport supplies.

   "There is a train to Stalingrad, but you won't like it!" Akadyevich said.

  Shuerka understood what Akadyevich meant. It was really not a good experience to take a Soviet train, because its carriages were usually airtight...The airtight carriages are easy to produce, and they are suitable for transporting people and goods.

  Soviet military supplies are so simple and crude.

But this is also normal, because it is a time of war, and the consideration is how to save money and how to get it quickly. If you want to distinguish the carriages for transporting people and goods, not only the production is troublesome, but also when transporting and mounting, it is time-consuming, troublesome and It's easy to get confused.

Coupled with the non-stop transportation back and forth, the smell of sweat, urine, feces... all kinds of germs and infectious diseases are inevitable in the train carriages. Maybe people will get seriously ill after arriving at their destination and then they will not be able to get up. up.

In contrast, the car is much more comfortable. The driver and the co-driver in the front cab drive...the two drive alternately, and Shulka just finds some space in the rear compartment and wraps it up in a marching quilt and sleeps soundly. When I was hungry, I opened a box of things in the rear compartment and had a delicious meal.

Fortunately for Shulka, the rear compartment transported canned beef and compressed biscuits... Perhaps this was also specially arranged by Akadievich, and Akadievich also specially confessed: "If you need it, the rear compartment Enjoy the food as you like, I have already greeted the quartermaster, as much as you eat, just report the number when you arrive at the destination!"

   "Thank you, Comrade Akadyevich!"

   "Don't talk about this!" Akadyevich waved at Shulka: "Don't forget, I will still trouble you!"

   Of course Shulka knew that even if Akadyevich didn't make "trouble" with him, Beria would.

  So, the two and a half days of the itinerary can be said to be the most leisurely period for Shulka. He doesn't have to think about anything, he just needs to eat and sleep.

  Because the car took a long way around the front line, and the German air power was also concentrated near Stalingrad to implement "air transport", so there was no danger along the way, and the car arrived in Znamensk smoothly.

Shulka needs to change cars here, because the supplies are destined for Stalingrad, which Akadyevich told the driver, so the driver stopped the car when the road forked and slapped the car board hard, Shouted: "Get up, we finally transported you, the resident insect, to the destination!"

   Apparently, the driver knew that Shulka had been eating and drinking in the trunk all the way, and they were not happy about it.

   Of course it makes sense for them to be unhappy, because as drivers, they can only eat black bread, and they are still hungry and full, in order to transport as much supplies as possible to the front line.

But there was actually a "resident worm" in the rear compartment. While they were transporting supplies, this "resident worm" was eating and drinking in the back, and the supplies became less and less, which made the two drivers very unbalanced. .

  Because it was someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who explained the itinerary, the driver dared not speak out all the way, and he couldn't help complaining until he was about to be relieved.

  Shuerka was awakened from a drowsy sleep in the rear compartment. After hearing the cry, he put away the march and was jumped out of the car.

   "Where is this, comrade?" Shulka asked, a little confused about the situation.

"Znamensk!" The driver raised his head towards the street on the left and said, "Go in this direction, and you will arrive at the train station you want to go to. I hope you won't eat all A carload of food!"

   "They should lock you up with the ammo!" said the co-pilot, "So you can eat more!"

   "Thank you!" Shulka replied with a smile, and then put on the military cap in a hurry.

  The co-pilot didn't seem to recognize Shulka until then, and opened his mouth wide in surprise. Just as he was about to say something, the driver kicked the accelerator and drove the car away.

   "Comrade Vashuk!" The co-pilot said in disbelief, "I'm not mistaken!"

   "What's wrong?"

   "That guy just now...he's Shulka!"

   "What are you talking about? That resident worm? This is impossible? You must be dazzled!"

   "No, Vashuk!" The co-pilot said with certainty, "He's Shulka!"

As he said that, the co-pilot took out a newspaper from his pocket, pointed to the person in the picture and said, "I'm sure, it's him! God, he was in our back compartment for two and a half days, for two and a half days, I actually...I I couldn't even say a word to him!"

   "You said it, Venedikt!"

"What?"

   "You said he was a resident bug!" The driver laughed out loud.

  The co-pilot rolled his eyes and looked hopeless.

  Znamensk railway station.

  This railway station was originally just a small transfer station, because Stalingrad is just across the Volga River, and Stalingrad is the most important transfer station, where there are two large railway stations leading to different directions.

  But because Stalingrad is in a state of intense fighting, the railway station is of course unable to operate normally, so the Znamensk railway station has become the largest and most important railway station to support the front line.

Obviously, this place has been bombed countless times by the Luftwaffe. The streets are full of ruins and craters. Some of the craters in the streets are simply built with a few pieces of wood, and people and vehicles will fall if they are not careful. into the pit.

  The fence of the train station had also been blown down long ago, and was replaced by a simple barbed wire fence. Outside, a car and a team of soldiers lined up along the gate.

  Shuerka walked into the team with a bag on his back, and then slowly moved forward with the team.

  Finally at the station entrance, several people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs were nervously checking the soldiers' ID cards.

  Shuerka took out his military ID card and handed it over. It was a sergeant who checked the ID card. He took the ID card and looked at it, then he was stunned, and then repeatedly compared Shuerka and the photo.

   "What's the situation?" A second lieutenant felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere here, so he came up and asked.

   "Comrade...Second Lieutenant!" The sergeant stuttered a bit, and while handing over his certificate, he said dubiously: "He, he is Comrade Shulka!"

  As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding soldiers immediately stirred up.

   It's hard to recognize that Shulka hasn't washed his face for a few days, but they still shouted:

   "Yes, he is Shulka!"

   "Hello, Comrade Shulka!"

  …
