Chapter 162: instructor
Not so long ago, Shulka lamented that he finally got rid of this boring, uninteresting, shameless, nasty assistant instructor...
How shameless and obscene?
Staring at a big man every day, can you not be shameless and indecent? !
Now, he followed him like a lingering ghost, is there any reason for this? Is there still Wang Fa?
Sitting at the desk, Shulka stared at the deputy instructor opposite him like a murderous knife. He hoped to use the invisible murderous aura to make the assistant instructor retreat, but the assistant instructor seemed to be practicing iron cloth. The shirt is not affected at all.
"Well, Comrade Shulka!" The deputy instructor calmly read the newspaper while drinking water: "I heard that you took the initiative to ask for additional instructors this time, and this ideological awareness is worthy of praise.
Indeed, forming a new army needs to start from the ideological point of view, because thought is the soul of the army and the source of courage for soldiers. Compromise before the enemy and become a traitor to the motherland..."
Shulka almost sprayed a mouthful of blood onto the ceiling.
"What's the matter, Comrade Shulka?" the deputy instructor asked: "Do you feel troubled about this aspect? Don't worry, although I am only a deputy instructor, I have been in charge of political work for five years. Unite and let them bravely charge the enemy on the battlefield..."
"Wait, comrade deputy instructor!" Shulka interrupted the assistant instructor: "I think they told you that you need to cooperate with my work?"
"Of course!" The deputy instructor replied: "I'm just cooperating with your work now?"
"The problem is..." Shulka said: "Our army does not simply require soldiers to rush to the enemy bravely..."
"Of course, and killing enemies!"
I'm going!
If possible, Shulka really wanted to kick the assistant instructor back to Odessa.
Major Gavrilov not far away also looked helpless.
"Why didn't they send Commissar Fomin to cooperate with us?" Major Gavrilov asked.
"Odessa needs Comrade Fuming to organize work!" The deputy instructor said: "As you know, there are many rebels lurking in Odessa. They are always ready to subvert and divide our comrades, and there are still many people who are not firm enough..."
"I see, Comrade Deputy Instructor!" Shulka said: "Let's get to work!"
"Of course, I'm ready!"
Shulka resigned to his fate.
Even if he asks General Kirponos to replace the deputy instructor, who can guarantee that the replacement will be better?
So, get to work!
But where to start?
"Comrade Varenka!" After thinking for a while, Shulka said: "I need a map, detailing every village!"
"Yes, Comrade Shulka!"
The map was quickly sent up, after all, this is the headquarters of the front army.
"Our work is divided into two aspects!" Shulka said: "One is to form an infiltration force, which is responsible for the direct execution of tasks. Soldiers and people in the enemy's rear are organized as a reserve force for the infiltration force, and there is also propaganda, intelligence, etc., understand?"
Several people nodded in unison. At this time, Major Gavrilov understood why Shulka needed an instructor... The ideological mobilization force is more suitable for political workers.
Once the direction is set, the follow-up work will have a clue.
First, compile the villages and towns near the German railways, highways, and bridges.
Then look for soldiers according to the villages and towns...
This is because the soldiers are familiar with the terrain of the original village and town and have acquaintances and relatives. Even without any supplies, it is easier for them to hide and survive.
"What excuse are they going to use?" Major Gavrilov asked: "I mean, they can't reveal their identities, otherwise there is a high possibility that traitors will betray them!"
Major Gavrilov is right to worry. As I said before, Ukrainians have ideas about Moscow, and even some people regard the Germans as liberators.
Therefore, if you return to the village openly and tell them: "Unite and drive out the invaders!"
It won't take long for the Germans to appear in front of them.
So, they need an excuse, an excuse to go back to the village.
"Deserters!" Shulka said: "They are deserters, and because of Order No. 270 they can no longer return to the Soviet army, and at the same time they are unwilling to join the German army!"
Gavrilov and the others glanced at each other, then nodded. This is indeed a good excuse.
In this respect, Order No. 270 is an advantage.
"This task is dangerous!" Major Gavrilov said: "Because they will be misunderstood as traitors!"
"But precisely because of this they have a better chance of winning the trust of the enemy!" Varenka said.
"Yes!" Shulka said: "So we must carefully screen. The deputy instructor is right. Compared with military quality, the ideological will and adaptability of this army are more important!"
So the first substantive operation is screening.
Screening is not difficult.
After all, it has been a while since the war broke out at this time... Screening in peaceful times is the most difficult, because everyone will shout slogans, but it may be another matter when it is really a matter of life and death.
There is a saying that goes like this: "The troops in peacetime are ceiling troops", to the effect that they are for viewing rather than for use.
On the contrary, the screening during the war is much easier. They only need to pick out the officers and soldiers who have shown bravery or withstood the test from the troops.
Then the rosters of these soldiers were sent to Shulka's temporary command post one by one, and the manpower of the command post gradually increased.
The first batch of guerrillas consisted of 300 people... These were set up for the area on the east bank of the Dnieper River.
Gavrilov named them "Belgodero partisans".
Belgodero is a major city on the east bank of the Dnieper River. At this time, it has become an important node and supply point for the German army to block the Southwest Front Army, and of course it is the main target of the guerrillas.
Shuerka divided the three hundred people into ten teams, each with only thirty people.
Thirty troops are a little less, but bombing bridges and railroads doesn’t require many manpower, and the more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed.
What's more, they can continuously absorb and develop new forces to strengthen themselves in the process of action.
One problem is: In order to prevent one person from being captured as a traitor and pulling out everyone, Shulka must ensure that these teams do not know each other.
