"Is the situation confirmed? Varosha, this matter is very important and there can't be any problems!"
"Confirmation, Comrade Political Commissar, just because this matter is very important, I have confirmed it repeatedly. There are only a few Germans among those corpses, and the rest are all puppet soldiers who are not Germans. This is simply unbelievable!"
"..."
Compared with the shocked expressions on the faces of Comrade Political Commissar and Varosha, our Comrade Ma seemed to be abnormally calm, as if...as if this matter was a matter of course, and it should be like this.
It's a normal thing that should happen, and there won't be any surprises.
"Malashenko, what do you think about this? We should report it to the headquarters immediately."
Before Malashenko could take the initiative to speak, the political commissar on the side took the lead in expressing his opinion. In his opinion, this matter was simply abnormal and incomprehensible.
"...It should be reported to the headquarters, but this matter...this matter itself is not particularly bizarre. As long as you understand the whole story, you will also think that this matter is normal."
Comrade Political Commissar and Varosha did not know the reason behind this, but it was impossible for Malashenko not to know.
Comrade Lao Ma, who is a time traveler of later generations, knows very well the ins and outs and reasons of this. All he needs to do next is to be a commentator and explain this matter clearly.
After thinking for a moment and organizing his words, Malashenko spoke again, still as calm as a few seconds ago.
"The Viking Division is the most special unit in the SS, or the most special unit in all the German armies. This unit was not formed by the Germans themselves from the beginning. I mean the general source of soldiers.
Non-Germans. Of course, they are just ordinary soldiers and officers at the grassroots level. The command and control rights at the middle and upper levels are still in the hands of the Germans themselves."
"When the SS was first established, the number of soldiers was relatively scarce. Many people were reluctant to join this irregular army with an unjustified name, and were more willing to join the Wehrmacht. The SS had to adopt strategies.
, in addition to absorbing those scum, gangsters, prisoners who have committed crimes, people who have been kicked out of the National Defense Force, and veterans who are poor and unable to make a living."
"The SS also came up with another good idea: recruiting foreign soldiers."
"Fascist bastards are spreading rampantly in Europe. After so many years of operation, there will always be some foreigners who think this shit smells really good. After all, cow dung can attract flies and bugs, let alone Fascist."
"The foreigners recruited are all fanatical fascists, thugs, prisoners who have been imprisoned several times with bad records, and ordinary people. In short, it doesn't matter which country you come from, what you have done before, and what crimes you have committed
, as long as you pass the review and are willing to be fanatically loyal to the Fascists and shout "Long Live the Führer" a few times to let them see your loyalty, you can join the SS."
"The Foreign Legion was specially organized into an independent force to facilitate management and command. But the Germans themselves may not have thought that the Foreign Legion composed of this group of fanatical foreigners could actually fight better than the troops composed of many nationals.
Even within the SS, the Viking Division was among the best in terms of combat capability. After proving itself, it naturally used the best equipment. After the Battle of Kursk, the Viking Division was also the first wave to be upgraded to an armored division.
SS troops."
"The Germans themselves have a combat strength ranking. The three SS divisions we defeated in Prokhorovka before, the Skull, the Reich, and the Guards, plus this Viking division, are the armed SS.
The four divisions with the strongest combat effectiveness in the army. It is quite lucky to say that we have fought against these four divisions now, and we have beaten them back. The flower of the SS is nothing more than that."
Malashenko, who told the whole incident in great detail from beginning to end, breathed a sigh of relief. Unknowingly, he had dealt with the four most powerful divisions of the SS one by one. Such a result was considered a victory.
Now that I think about it, it's quite worthy of bragging.
"The reason why I want to kill the bastards like the Vikings so much and eradicate them is because these scum have left a trail of misdeeds on our territory. They commit murder and arson. Killing them will also bring bad luck to the motherland and the people."
"On the other hand, it's also because these bastards are really difficult to deal with. Didn't an infantry regiment go the wrong way before and accidentally collided with these bastards? As a result, in less than half a day, a whole group was filled with stuff.
The infantry regiment was eaten to the last bit by these scumbags, and the whole army was wiped out. This was a Viking division that encountered an unexpected encounter. If we had been prepared, it would have taken even less time."
"It is too difficult for ordinary troops to defeat the Viking Division. Unless they have several times the strength, they can try to fight a complete battle of annihilation. This group of scum is top-notch in terms of morale, fighting will, and equipment. The same is true.
Among division-level troops, only our division has the ability to fight them head-on one-on-one."
"Killing these bastards is equivalent to removing a pillar from the SS. Many battles in the future will become much easier to fight. One of the four ace divisions of the SS can also be crossed off.
I want to kill all the scum of these Viking divisions, including my men and my organization. As for whether the Germans want to rebuild this army from scratch, that is beyond my control."
The next task is to defend the siege. There are no necessary battles to be fought today.
Malashenko, who suddenly had more free time, didn't mind chatting away, so he simply leaned against the side of his car and talked a few more words, paying attention to the political commissar and comrades who were acting as listeners.
Varosha's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"It's like this! I didn't expect that the Germans actually planned to do this from the beginning. I thought they were running out of troops and no one had any use for them, so they came up with this strategy. They recruited a lot of puppet troops and sent them to the front line to replenish their numbers.
Yes, that rotten-ass Hitler loves to do this kind of stuff."
Varosha, who finally understood what happened under the explanation of the division commander, nodded frequently and became enlightened, but the political commissar on the side thought of something else.
"Let's do this for now, Varosha. Go and do what you should do. Comrade division commander and I have something to talk about."
Although he was relatively naive at the time in Stalingrad and was just a small company commander, Varosha has been promoted by Malashenko for so long, first to the battalion commander and then to the regimental commander. Now, Varosha has long been promoted.
I have become accustomed to the changes in my status, and I am more aware of the ways of the world and how to act based on the "leader's" look.
