The summary of Nekrasov "In the trenches of Stalingrad" (novels)

In this article, we will describe the brief content of Nekrasov "In the trenches of Stalingrad," a story written in 1946. The action begins in 1942, in July, with the retreat of the Russians under Oskol. We describe in a sequential, chronological order, a short summary ("In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov V.).

German troops came close to Voronezh, and the regiment withdraws from the dykes just defended, without making a single shot. However, for the cover remains the first battalion commanded by battalion commander Shiryaev. Lieutenant Kerzhentsev, the protagonist of the story, also decided to stay to help him.

Combine the battalion with the troops

The summary of Nekrasov "In the trenches of Stalingrad" continues with an episode connecting the battalion with other parts. It occurs as follows. The first battalion is removed, lying on the orders laid out for two days. Unexpectedly, he meets Igor Svidersky, Kerzhentsev's friend, the connected headquarters. He announces that the regiment is broken, so you should change the route and go to the connection with it. The enemy's troops are only 10 kilometers away.

Another day people go, until they finally settle in the dilapidated sheds. The Germans find them right here. The battalion defends itself with a lot of losses. He leaves with 14 Shiryaev fighters, and Kerzhentsev remains with the orderly Valega, Lazarenko (the connected headquarters), Sedykh and Igor in order to cover them. Lazarenko is killed, and the remaining soldiers leave safely shed and unite with their own. It is not difficult to do this, since the retreating parts are dragging along the road. They are trying to find their own: an army, a division, a regiment, but this is impossible. Crossing the Don. The battalion reaches Stalingrad.

Life in Stalingrad with Mary Kuzminichny

Here are the soldiers from Marya Kuzminichna, who is the sister of the former company commander Igor, and begin to live a peaceful, long-forgotten life. Communication with the hostess and Nikolai Nikolaevich, her husband, as well as a walk with Luce, reminiscent of Yuri Kerzhentsev about his beloved, also called Lucy, tea with jam, library, bathing in the Volga - a quiet life. Together with Kerzhentsev Igor falls into the reserve, posing as a sapper. He belongs now to a special task group, whose task is to prepare industrial facilities for the explosion. However, the peaceful life is interrupted by an unexpectedly two-hour bombing and an airborne alarm - the Germans are starting to attack the city. This is how the short text "In the trenches of Stalingrad" (Nekrasov V.) continues.

Kerzhentsev's conversation with Georgy Akimovich

After that, the sappers are sent to a tractor plant located at Stalingrad. Here is a painstaking, long preparation for the explosion. It is necessary to repair the chain several times a day, since during the next shelling it was torn. Igor in the intervals between watches argues with the electrical engineer of HPP Georgy Akimovich. He is indignant at the inability to fight his compatriots. Georgy Akimovich believes that only miracle can save Russians. The protagonist recalls the recent conversation between soldiers about their land, "like butter" oily, about the breads that cover you with your head. He does not know what to call it. Perhaps, "the latent warmth of patriotism," as Tolstoy said. Maybe this is the miracle that Georgy Akimovich is expecting, stronger than the tanks and organization of the Germans.

Kerzhentsev with the battalion crossed to the other side

Already 10 days bombed the city. From him, probably, there is nothing left.

However, the order for the explosion does not arrive. So without waiting for him, the sappers are sent to a new task - to the engineering department, to the headquarters of the front, to the other side of the Volga. Here they receive an appointment. Igor parted with Kerzhentsev. The main character is sent to the 184th division. With his first battalion, he crossed to the other shore, which is all covered with fire.

Kerzhentsev - battalion commander

Immediately the battalion gets involved in the battle. The battalion commander is dying, Kerzhentsev becomes commander of the battalion. These events continue the brief content of the book "In the trenches of Stalingrad." The 4th and 5th companies, as well as a platoon of foot scouts, commanded by Chumak, are at Kerzhentsev's disposal. Plant "Metiz" - its position. Here for a long time the fighters are delayed. The morning cannonade begins the day. Then attack or "Sabantuy." So the month passes September, the next one begins.

Preparing for an attack

The battalion is sent to the positions between the ravine on Mamayev and "Metiz", more shot through. Major Borodkin, commander of the regiment, attracts the protagonist for the construction of dug-out and demining works, along with Lieutenant Lisagor, a sapper.

A total of 36 people in the battalion instead of 400 laid, and a small plot for the whole composition is a serious problem for them. Beginning to dig trenches fighters, install mines of sappers. But immediately it turns out that it is necessary to change positions: the colonel, the commander, comes to the command post and orders to go to the hill, on which are the enemy machine guns. Scouts will be given help, and Chuikov promised also "corn". Slowly the time stretches before the attack. Political officers who came with a check, the protagonist exposes from the CP and sent, unexpectedly for himself, to attack.

Attack

They took the hill, which turned out to be not so difficult: 12 out of 14 soldiers survived. They sit with Karnaukhov, the comot and Chumak, the commander of the scouts (the recent opponent of the protagonist) in the German dugout and discuss the battle. Suddenly it turns out that the soldiers are cut off from the rest of the battalion. They are defending themselves. We will not describe in detail this episode of the work "In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov in brief. In the dug-out unexpectedly appears Valega, an orderly Kerzhentsev, who remained on the KP, because his leg injured 3 days before the attack. He brings the soldiers a stew, as well as a note from Kharlamov, the senior adjutant, that at 4 o'clock there must be an attack.

Kerzhentsev surrenders the battalion, the conversation of the protagonist with Farber

However, the offensive does not succeed, as described in the story "In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov, V.P. People die more and more - from direct hit and wounds. There is no hope to survive, nevertheless they still break through. Shiryaev attacks Kerzhentsev. He received the assignment of a battalion commander instead of the main character. He hands over the battalion, after which he moves to Lisagor. They sit around for the first time, go on a visit to Karnaukhov, Shiryaev, Chumak.

Kerzhentsev for the first time in 1.5 months of dating talks about life with Farber, the former commander's battalion. This man is an intellectual in the war, who is not very good at commanding the company assigned to him, which is noted in the work "In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov. However, he feels responsible for everything he has not learned in time to do.

A new attack on the orders of Abrosimov

At Kerzhentsev on November, 19th a name day. On this occasion a holiday is planned, but it breaks due to the fact that the front must advance. So continues the work "In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov. In the summary, we describe the following events as follows. Kerzhentsev, having prepared the command post of Borodin, the major, releases the sappers to shore with Lisagor, while he himself goes to his former battalion on orders.

Shiryaev came up with the idea of how to get hold of the message, and the major agrees with this military cunning - she will save people. However, Captain Abrosimov, chief of staff, insists on the offensive "on the forehead." He follows Kerzhentsev on Shiryaev's command post and orders the battalion to attack, not listening to any arguments.

The main character attacks along with the rest. Immediately the soldiers lie in the funnels, hitting the bullets. After spending 9 hours in the funnel Kerzhentsev manages to finally connect with his. 26 people lost a battalion, almost half of all soldiers. Karnaukhov died. Shiryaev, wounded, ends up in the medical battalion. Farber takes command of the battalion. This is the only commander who did not take part in the attack. Abrosimov decided to keep it to himself.

The trial of Abrosimov

"In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov, in a summary, continues with the trial of Abrosimov. It took place the next day. On it, Major Borodin says that he trusted the chief of staff, but he exceeded power, deceived the regiment commander. People died. Then a few more people come forward. The accused believes that he was right, because the tanks could only be a massive attack. Then stands up Farber. He does not know how to speak, but he knows that those who died in this attack did not quail. He says that the order was to "seize", and not "attack". The reception, invented by Shiryaev, would save people who are no longer there.

New fights

The accused was demoted to the penal battalion. He leaves without saying good-bye to anyone. Kerzhentsev is now at peace with Farber. The long-awaited tanks arrive at night. The main character tries to make up for the missing names, but the new offensive describes in the work "In the trenches of Stalingrad," Nekrasov. Shiryaev resorted, breaking out of the medical battalion. He is now chief of staff. The battle begins. In it Kerzhentsev is wounded, which is placed in the medical battalion. From it, he returns home, at Stalingrad, meets Sedykh, and also learns that Igor has survived, is going to him in the evening and again does not have time: with the Northern grouping they are being transferred for a new battle. There is an offensive.
