"I understand that this may cause some confusion and doubt, Major Adam. After all, you are the garrison commander of the bridge. This is normal and your responsibility."
"But what I want to say is that if you think it is necessary, I can dial the radio directly. The headquarters of our division is not far from here, just over the bridge, and is within the radio communication range. You can call our division commander
If you ask for verification in person, he will tell you what kind of mission I have received, and I hope this can dispel your doubts."
"..."
To be precise, Malashenko was not discussing anything with Major Adam, nor was he seeking his opinion, but was using words to force him.
Think about it, a young major asked a lieutenant general for verification in person because he questioned the authenticity of the order. Such a thing cannot be said to be outrageous, but it can only be said to make everyone feel very embarrassed.
Lieutenant Colonel Victor, played by Malashenko, will lose face, and so will Lieutenant Colonel Victor's immediate superior, the Lieutenant General and Commander of the Grossdeutschland Division.
Oh, although this person has already burped, it does not prevent Comrade Ma from finding someone else to play the role of division commander, just like he played Lieutenant Colonel Victor. Anyway, after the radio is connected, the person on the other end of the transmitter
There will definitely be an online conversation with the "Commander of the Grossdeutschland Division", and it's just that the commander's real name is "Petrov".
Anyway, Comrade Political Commissar's German is quite good. He doesn't need to talk to and report to him on weekdays. There is no video chat these days. It is a piece of cake to fool this little major without seeing his face.
So even if we take a step back, Malashenko is not afraid that this matter will be exposed at all.
The premise is that Major Adam can figure out the reason, and after thinking about it, he plans to make everyone lose face and really call the radio to verify. To be honest, Malashenko thinks this possibility is not high.
This Major Adam seems to be a smart man, and it seems that such a thing that a fool would do has nothing to do with him. All we have to do now is wait for his next answer.
"...No, this is not necessary, sir. Since it is a task assigned by superiors, I will cooperate. Please come with me."
Lieutenant Schwerner, who is under his command, is an idle and fearful bastard, but Major Adam, who is his immediate superior, is not. However, this does not mean that Major Adam is the complete opposite. You cannot always think of "diodes" in everything.
treat.
Major Adam is dedicated to his duties and is serious and responsible, but this does not mean that he is a rigid fool who does not know how to adapt.
This Lieutenant Colonel Victor is not an easy person to deal with, Schwaner told himself just now.
Now it seems that Schwaner is indeed right. At least he is a person who will use any means to complete his tasks and does not care about many things.
Use strong and soft words to forcibly raise the threshold for rejection, and then force the other party to make an immediate choice.
The more powerful their brains are, the more people who like to make decisions before taking action will fall into this trap. On the contrary, those who do things without thinking through their brains are not so susceptible to this, and tend to act impulsively or have such simple brains that they cannot understand the words at all.
the meaning of.
Unfortunately, Major Adam clearly falls into the former category.
In normal times, this is undoubtedly an advantage, especially as a front-line commander, you need to be cautious and think twice before acting.
Speaking more broadly, this is also the reason why his superiors assigned him to be responsible for the defense of the most important Central Bridge.
However, as far as the current situation is concerned, Major Adam, who was tricked by Malashenko's words, smiled bitterly in his heart. On the contrary, he hoped that he was the latter.
Sometimes, even if people can figure everything out, they can't just do whatever they want. You have to consider the consequences and whether it's worth it or not.
Not suitable.
It was precisely because Major Adam had thought carefully that he agreed to the request of Lieutenant Colonel Victor in front of him. Although he could afford the consequences of not doing so, it was indeed avoidable and unnecessary.
Now, Major Adam just hopes that his intuition and judgment are right. If not, he really can't imagine what the consequences will be after this.
"We're here, sir. The bridge command room is located together with my headquarters. I'll take you there to see the situation. It's been safe since the Polish ghosts launched the raid. I've been sending people to keep a close eye on it."
Malashenko's guess was correct. The Germans had indeed installed the device to control the detonation of the bridge in the command post of the two-story building. It was Malashenko who asked Iwu when he first crossed the bridge.
Major Adam, who took Malashenko to visit the small building that Shikin targeted in advance, has personally confirmed this situation.
"Damn, luckily I guessed right! If I had guessed wrong and missed the right place, I might have had a lot of fun, you idiot!"
Malashenko was thankful that his intuition was sharp and his guess was quite accurate. However, this little happiness did not last long. As soon as Major Adam entered the building, he shattered Malashenko's heart with his next words.
That feeling of joy.
"In order to ensure the absolute safety of the bridge, we have installed the bridge security system in a place that ordinary people cannot see and cannot think of. It is right here, under our feet."
Major Adam gently lifted his military boots and stepped on the wooden floor under his feet. The hollow sound coming from it clearly confirmed the authenticity of what he said. There must be a cave under this floor.
"..."
Malashenko did not speak, but maintained a normal and thoughtful expression, as if waiting for Major Adam's next action.
Although it looks like nothing on the surface, Comrade Lao Ma's heart at this moment is already like ten thousand grass mud horses running wildly.
"Damn it, what a fucking yin! You're outrageous if you set it underground! Thank you for not taking action. If you really do it, you will definitely not be able to save the bridge. I'm afraid Black Panther 2's seventy-five small cannons want to blow up the basement from the upper level.
Eat shit."
Malashenko couldn't help but feel lucky again, but this time he was lucky that he didn't take action just now, instead of being lucky that he guessed something right. If the overlord had taken the bow just now, the result would have been failure.
Major Adam didn't know the true identity of Lieutenant Colonel Victor next to him, nor did he know what this man was thinking at this moment. He was still doing what he should do.
"Open the door."
"yes!"
When placed in the corner, the seemingly ordinary wine cabinet was pushed away by a soldier, and a long tunnel diagonally leading underground suddenly appeared in front of Malashenko.
