Malashenko did not interrupt, but quietly waited for Androv's next words.
"But compared to our AK, this thing is too complicated and lame. I haven't used it in depth, but just from the simple inspection after just capturing it, I can feel that this thing is much more complicated than our AK
, I personally feel this way, which means that it is not so reliable in very complex and harsh environments.”
"Perhaps due to the speed of fire, its suppression ability is not as good as our AK. If the Germans did not have the advantage of shooting first, our soldiers would most likely be able to kill the Germans, or at least suppress them in reverse."
"That's about all I want to say. In short, this is a weapon that the Germans may like very much, but it is already outdated for us. It is not worthy of being used by me like the Iron Fist."
This Androv is not only very good at dealing with people and sophistication, but now it seems that he is also doing well in professional ability. It is quite good to have such an analysis in the first encounter. Malashenko even has a bit of "Why don't I do it?"
Could you have discovered such a talent earlier?" It means.
"How long have you been in our division? Which army are you originally from?"
Most of the grassroots commanders and fighters of Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division were subsequently transferred. There are indeed not many of the old team members left who have followed Malashenko all the way to the north and south and have not yet sacrificed their lives.
Moreover, Malashenko can basically remember these people. Even if he can’t name them, he can still have an impression. Malashenko does not remember that Androv is one of the old people who followed him, so there is a high probability that he will come from later.
Transferred from other troops.
The answer that followed was as expected as Malashenko thought.
"Comrade Commander, I was originally a tactics instructor in the Moscow garrison. In 1941, when the Germans attacked the city of Moscow, I went to the front line and was a squad leader. Later, I served in several armies and was dispersed many times.
, was reassigned many times, was captured by the Germans, grabbed a gun on the way to a prisoner of war camp, escaped, and underwent political scrutiny. He almost died several times, but he returned to the team in the end."
"Last year I was shot in the stomach and my stomach and intestines were pierced. I survived and came back to recuperate in the rear area for half a year before I was allowed to return to the army. The order I received was to go to the newly formed 1st Stalin Guards Tank Division. At that time
I find this unbelievable because the division commander was Comrade Malashenko, the legendary tank hero that people praised, and then I am like this."
Damn it! This guy’s resume is a bit awesome!
The above sentence was Malashenko's first reaction immediately after listening to the narrative, and it is absolutely not false.
Tactical instructor of the Moscow Garrison? This title is quite capable.
Anyone who could become an officer in the Moscow garrison before the war either had good connections or had real abilities.
Considering that this guy's position is that of a tactics instructor, it's not something that just someone with connections can get into. It's not a good position for a loser to occupy the manhole, otherwise big problems will arise.
Even though he was just a small instructor, the meaning was different. Malashenko even wondered if Varosha had some trouble with this brother and deliberately gave him small shoes to wear, so he was allowed to lead the most powerful combat team.
The camp on the crotch.
"You...well, let me put it this way, Comrade Androv. Your battalion's comprehensive combat strength ranks last in your regiment. You should know this, according to the report Varosha submitted to me.
It has been mentioned many times in the book that Comrade Political Commissar also came up with the same result when he went on an actual inspection. I think this is probably not wrong."
"Based on your personal history, I judge that your ability should be more than this, so why is this?"
Malashenko spoke very tactfully, but Androv did understand what Comrade Commander wanted to express, and he replied directly without any hesitation.
"I...you may not know my shortcomings, comrade division commander. I particularly like drinking. I have violated disciplines several times because of this before, and I have also delayed a lot of things on weekdays. Comrade commander has taken good care of me.
And several other battalion commanders are better than me, so our battalion...you know, the reports are all written in black and white."
"..."
Drinking causes trouble, and if you are addicted to alcohol, it will be a big problem.
This truth is not only clear to Malashenko, it is also something that almost everyone on earth knows, except for the drunkards themselves who may not agree.
But in this case, it can be explained why the third battalion led by Androv is the most powerful.
Malashenko estimated that this kid might not like to have "quarrels" anymore. He would most likely drink up bottles of wine when he had nothing to do. Otherwise, with his resume and ability, how could he possibly lead the army?
The combat effectiveness is at the bottom.
But what's even more bizarre is that I didn't know anything about the fact that the commander of the third battalion of the infantry regiment was addicted to alcohol. It seems that this boy Varosha's "care" for Androv is really extraordinary.
Not to mention getting Varosha tidied up, but at least when we get down, we should take a chance to ask what is going on. After making up his mind, Malashenko waved his hand, indicating that the conversation could end here.
until.
Watching Major Andlov salute and then turn away, Malashenko continued to ask Kulbalov, who had been following him on standby.
"The enemies this time are a little weird, have you noticed? The tire tracks and track marks all come from the west, and the position has not been repaired yet. It was only half done in a hurry. This at least shows that this group of enemies is not from the encirclement."
The troops were captured just ahead of us from the depths of the German-controlled area."
"But the weapons they brought seemed to have been carefully prepared, and the number of anti-tank weapons was unusual. They looked like a well-prepared specialized anti-armor force. What I want to say is, this is definitely not a group.
The bastards of the infantry division randomly brought a few tanks over to make up the numbers. They might be the enemy's elites. Have you found out what their serial numbers are?"
Kulbalov, who was stunned by Malashenko's question, didn't know anything about it. Just now, he was completely busy thinking about how to explain the situation to Malashenko and how to deal with it. He had no time to think about post-war matters and had no intention of doing so.
There's no time to take care of it.
Kulbalov, who had no intention of pretending to understand, simply called the deputy commander who was sent to deal with post-war matters and asked him to explain the situation to Malashenko.
It's just that the deputy commander didn't say anything. This opening directly brought Comrade Ma's memory back to the extremely miserable year of 1941 when he was chased and beaten by Germans. He even wanted to ask, "This
Why are you bastard here now?".
"I have already asked the question from the prisoners, comrade division commander. These Wehrmacht bastards are an advance battalion of the Grossdeutschland Armored Division, and they also brought with them a tank that was not satisfied with the formation of the battalion. The whole division is a reorganized and upgraded unit, formerly known as Grossdeutschland Infantry Division.
