Malashenko had been very curious for a while, wondering what Yekakina's real combat experience was.
Although the leadership division organization has never organized an official performance ranking, a place like the military has always respected the strong and competed for strength. Even Malashenko has never organized any official ranking.
, but privately there are still many ace tankers, especially the competition between the commander and the gunner is the most fierce.
As a teacher, Malashenko has indeed heard of this matter. His attitude is that of turning a blind eye and neither advocating nor stopping it. Otherwise, something will happen to him in private.
It doesn't matter if you mess around.
After the incident with Ekakina, Malashenko, who was curious about what the ranking was, made a special inquiry, but the result was unexpected.
In the gunner record rankings, this young girl Ekakina actually ranked sixth on the list! With a record of destroying a total of 78 enemy tanks, destroying armored vehicles, cars, fixed defense point fortifications, and infantry,
A big old man who lost a lot of money became the only woman among the top ten gunners in the division's record rankings.
What is the concept of 78 vehicles?
Let’s put it this way, in the existing historical timeline where the time traveler Malashenko did not exist, the number one ace gunner (and vehicle commander) of the Soviet Red Army was our current deputy division commander, Comrade Lavrinenko.
The confirmed destruction record is only a little over 50 vehicles.
Of course, this is mainly related to the fact that Lavrinenko stepped on a landmine in 1941 and was killed in the existing history. But Lavrinenko’s record of more than 50 vehicles destroyed in 1941 continued until the Soviet Red Army won the battle.
It was not broken even in the Great Patriotic War in 1945, which shows its high value and the difficulty of destroying more than 50 German tanks.
Now, a girl in her twenties, in this timeline that has been tampered with beyond recognition, has achieved a record that is even more impressive than the number one tank ace of the Soviet Red Army in history, and even surpassed it by more than 20 tanks in one go.
What does it mean that women can hold up half the sky?
How can a woman be so awesome if she can hold up half the fucking sky?
Of course, Malashenko was not the only one who was surprised by this achievement. Comrade Ma was just an afterthought.
Because this was an almost astonishing achievement, Ekakina's comrades, the other tank crews of the Leader Division, gave her the code name "White Rose of the Leader Division".
What about Ekadina herself?
She also liked the new name given to her by her comrades very much, and even found a comrade with better skills to paint a white rose mark on the turret of the tank with white paint. This was authorized by the tank commander.
Even Ekadina's commander thought this was a pretty good idea.
After learning these stories, Malashenko deeply felt that this little girl Yekakina was a talent. If she had to pack her luggage and end up lonely just because she was blind, Malashenko deeply felt that such a result would be very harmful to Yekakina.
It was too cruel for Katina.
Especially after knowing that this little girl was from Kharkiv, Ukraine, and that her whole family died in the Nazi bombings on the way to escape as early as the Nazi invasion. She was the only one who survived because she was still in military school.
Malashenko, who deeply feels the heavy responsibility, can easily guess what kind of desolation Ekakina will face if she retires hastily and returns to her hometown without even a family or home with the disability of being blind in one eye.
future life and final outcome.
If it were better, it would be nothing more than an inspirational story. The heroine of the Soviet Red Army was physically disabled but had a strong will. She accomplished some great feats with her only remaining eye.
At the very least, or in the worst case scenario, it's not a joke to hang yourself by wiping your neck, or you could just commit suicide by swallowing a gun.
The fear of loneliness is a weakness shared by most people in the world. As social animals, the most difficult thing for human beings to overcome is the fact that they used to be with us day and night, and everything they were familiar with is gone. Things are different and people are different.
.
Malashenko is not the omnipotent savior, but if he encounters something that he can do and help, then Malashenko will never refuse.
Physical trauma can be cured with medical treatment, but mental trauma must be treated with spiritual means.
Malashenko does not want the emotional fluctuations to have an irreversible impact on Ekakina. Once her eyes recover and her mental state remains high-spirited, her future in the army will still be immeasurable. Leader
The big family of the division is her only remaining home, and every comrade-in-arms and comrade around her is her family and friends.
"."
Malashenko, who gently closed the door as he entered the room, stood at the door and stared at the beautiful girl lying on the hospital bed not far away.
Ekadina, who followed Kalachev's medical advice and was temporarily lying down to rest, with a layer of blindfold bandage wrapped on the bridge of her nose, below her forehead, and at the level of her eyes, has not recovered yet. It will still take about half a month.
, to recover wounds that may burst again due to violent movements and collisions, thereby endangering vision.
Ekakina, whose eyes had been wrapped by the bandage around her head, could not see anything at this moment. She just lay quietly on the bed and kept her chest rising and breathing. She came to the chair next to the bed and sat down.
Malashenko did not speak immediately, but just kept watching quietly beside her.
"Hello, are you a doctor? Or are you looking for someone?"
"Um?"
Malashenko thought that his movements were light enough, but he didn't expect that the girl still noticed him keenly. He didn't know whether it was through hearing or some other way.
In short, after hearing this, Malashenko, who really had no need to hide his identity, immediately changed his tone to a gentler tone and spoke slowly.
"It's me, Malashenko. Just like we agreed at the beginning, I'm here to see how you are recovering. Do you remember that agreement?"
"Comrade, division commander? What do you think?"
"Be gentle, don't move."
Seeing that her mood was suddenly aroused, Ekakina subconsciously wanted to get up. Malashenko quickly stood up and raised his hand to hold her shoulders, then gently pressed Ekakina back to the hospital bed and continued to speak.
.
"Lie down and have a good rest. Don't get up. This is an order. I am here to visit the wounded, not to ask the wounded comrades to salute me and report on my work. You lie down and I sit. We can just chat like this.
