Chapter 243 Adelina's Story "Assia," Sokov looked at Assia and asked as soon as he put down the phone, "Do you have any spare military uniforms?" When he saw Assia nodded, he said to her in an orderly tone , "Then hurry up and get the military uniform for Adelina to change into. She will be going to the Army Group Command soon. You can't let her wear the German uniform all the time." "Okay, I'll go right away." Although Assia was dissatisfied with Sokov speaking to herself in such an orderly tone, she still followed Sokov's order and went back to the station to pick up the military uniform for Adelina . As soon as Asya left, Sokov turned his gaze to the other officers and soldiers in the room: "Everyone, I have something confidential and I want to talk to Comrade Adelina. Please avoid it first." Hearing Soko After the husband said so, all the officers and soldiers including Potukin stood up and walked out the door without saying a word. Seeing that he and Asiya were the only ones left in the room, Sokov asked, "A few months ago, when I was having dinner with friends in a restaurant in Moscow, I saw a woman who came with a crooked nut. The lady who ate. If I'm not mistaken, the lady who calls herself Aina is you, right?" "That's right, it's me." Adelina did not deny Sokov's question, but nodded affirmatively: "This is the new name my superior gave me." "Adelina, or should I call you Aina." Sokov walked behind Adelina, put his hands on her shoulders, and asked tentatively: "Without leaking secrets involved, would you Can you tell me what's going on here?" "The person you saw in the restaurant with me that day was a diplomat in name, but in fact he was a spy for the Germans." Adelina turned to look at Sokov and said, "The superior arranged for me to approach him , in order to break into the German army through him to obtain important information for our army.” As for Adelina’s superiors, Sokov felt a little unbelievable for her to break into the German army in this way. If she hadn’t seen that she had escaped from the German army, he would not have believed that she had succeeded. Thinking of this, Sokov said with emotion: "It seems that you have succeeded." "Yes," Adelina nodded and replied, "I told him that my ancestor was a German nobleman who later immigrated to Ukraine and owned several famous vineyards and wineries. Unfortunately, my family Everything we had was ruthlessly deprived by the Bolsheviks, and our parents died in poverty. I want to avenge my family and hope to get his help."
Sokov took his hands off Adelina's shoulders, walked to sit opposite her, looked at her and said, "I think this German spy must have investigated everything you said after he met you." .” "You're right, he did conduct an investigation in private." Adelina showed a sweet smile on her face, "Ukraine is now occupied by the Communist Party, and they can easily answer what I said Vineyards and wineries continue to investigate. Then they will find that the owner of these properties is indeed a descendant of a Bavarian nobleman. Everything he owned was later confiscated by the Bolsheviks. Not only the husband and wife died in poverty, The whereabouts of baby girl Aina are also missing." "Adelina," although Adelina was sitting in front of him, Sokov still asked with lingering fear: "Have you ever thought that if the real Ainna would be killed during the time you entered the German army?" Appeared, will it bring you danger?" "Misha, your superiors have considered all the issues you mentioned." Adelina smiled sweetly at Sokov and said, "The real Aina died of typhoid fever a few years ago. In Siberia, that's why the superiors boldly let me take her place and make contact with the Germans." "Even if you gain the trust of the German spy and use him to enter the German army, it is impossible to enter the key department." Sokov looked at Adelina sitting in front of him, and continued to ask curiously: "If only In ordinary departments, how can we obtain the important information that our army urgently needs?" "When I first broke into the German army, I served as an interpreter for a captain of the first-level commando of the SS." When she said this, Adelina's expression suddenly became dignified: "My duty is to appear Extremely secretive interrogation, watching those damned **** torture captured soldiers or civilians, and translate what they say into German." Speaking of this, Adelina's eyes were red, and she quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip of water to control her emotions that were about to get out of control. After a while, she spoke slowly: "I often go to various parties held by the Germans, and sing old Bavarian songs for them, or play a few piano pieces by Beethoven and Bach. I was quite well-known in the middle. The new commander of the Second Army, von Zalmut, also heard about me, so he transferred me to his headquarters as soon as he took office, so that I had the opportunity to obtain important information from the German army. .” Sokov got up and added some water to Adelina's teacup, and then asked, "Can you tell me about your liaison officer?" Adelina took the teacup, thanked Sokov in a low voice, and continued: "The person in charge of delivering the information to me is a veteran who participated in World War I. One of his legs was injured when he was fighting the Germans." , was broken by a shell, even with a prosthetic leg installed, it is very inconvenient to walk, so he can only stay in the shoe store as a cover every day, waiting for me to deliver the collected information to his door, and then send it to his superiors. " "Have you never attracted the attention of the Germans when you often go to the shoe store?" Sokov asked, "Especially after he was arrested, didn't the Germans suspect you?" "Every time I go to the shoe store, I go to repair shoes." Adelina's face reappeared with a smile: "You also know that I have participated in a lot of parties, and the shoes I wear are very worn out, and I often go in and out to repair shoes. I went to the shoe store again shortly after the liaison officer was arrested, but unexpectedly I met the secret police hiding inside. Fortunately, one of them knew me and knew that I often attended various events. Seeing a reception, I thought I was really going to repair shoes, so I didn’t make things difficult for me.” Listening to Adelina telling her story, Sokov thought to himself: "If the liaison officer in charge of sending the report is not arrested, maybe Adelina can continue to lurk among the enemies. Unfortunately, because the two A clear-coded telegram that had to be sent made her identity suspected by the Germans, so that she had to take the risk of fleeing back after obtaining more important information." "What will the Germans do next?" Sokov asked casually, "Are they planning to make a fuss in the direction of Stalingrad?" As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Sokov realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, because he saw the surprised expression on Adelina's face. Just as he was thinking about how to lie, Potukin suddenly broke in from the outside and said hurriedly: "Comrade commander, I'm sorry to disturb you. The people sent by the group army have arrived and are outside at the moment." "It's coming so soon?" Sokov felt that he and Adelina hadn't chatted for a long time. Unexpectedly, the people sent by the Army Group Command arrived. He quickly asked Potukin: "Chief of Staff, do you know Who is it?" "It's me, Major Sokov!" Before Potukin could answer, someone walked in from the outside and answered first: "I am Romanov, the director of the Political Department of the Army Group." Romanov and Sokov knew each other. After shaking hands and exchanging greetings, he came to Adelina, looked her up and down, and said, "So it's you, Comrade Adelina, We meet again." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards Adelina and added, "On behalf of all the commanders and fighters of the 16th Army, I welcome you back! Thank you for the valuable information you provided us." Sokov heard Romanov say this, and immediately remembered that it was he who picked up Adelina from the Istria camp a few months ago and sent her back to Moscow. So he waited for Romanov to finish speaking, and then tentatively asked: "Comrade Director, I would like to ask, are you planning to send Adelina to the Front Army Command this time, or directly to Moscow?" "Major Sokov, when you reported, you didn't make it clear that the intelligence officer who returned with important information is Comrade Adelina." Romanov smiled and said to Sokov: "So I can only follow the procedure. , sent her to the Front Army Command, and then Comrade Bulganin, the military commissar, arranged for her to be sent to Moscow."
Romanov turned to face Adelina: "Comrade Adelina, it's getting late, let's go." Sokov accompanied Romanov and Adelina out of the command post, and saw two jeeps parked in the open space outside, and several powerful fighters stood beside them, holding Bobo in their hands. With his submachine gun, he watched the movement around him vigilantly. As soon as Romanov came out, a lieutenant came over and asked him for instructions: "Comrade Director, shall we set off now?" "Yes, we are leaving now." After Romanov finished speaking, he turned to Adelina and said, "Comrade Adelina, you and I will ride in the same car!" Just as Adelina bid farewell to Sokov and was about to wait for the bus, she suddenly heard someone shout: "Wait a minute, Adelina, wait a moment." Everyone turned their heads and saw Assi Ya was trotting all the way over. A soldier standing beside the jeep hurried forward to stop Asiya. Seeing Asiya being stopped by the soldiers brought by Romanov, Sokov hurriedly said to him: "Comrade soldiers, this is the health worker of the division, let her come here." Unexpectedly, the soldier was unmoved after hearing Sokov's words, and just cast a questioning look at Romanov. Seeing Romanov nodding in agreement, he turned to one side to make way for Assia. Assia came to Adelina, handed her a set of military uniforms in her hand, and said, "Adelina, this military uniform is for you. Although it is not the one you are wearing The German uniforms fit well, but it is our own uniform after all." "Thank you, Assia." Adelina took the military uniform from Assia's hand, then gave her a warm hug, and said excitedly, "I feel so honored to be able to put on this military uniform again." Proud, for me, there is no piece of clothing in the world that can be better than the military uniform you gave me." (end of this chapter)
