Chapter 1006 The Art of Being a Human Being

The noise when the red Stalingrad opened fire was so huge that not only Zhukov and Vasilevsky, who were soldiers, were shocked on the spot, but the loving father Comrade Stalin, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, was even more shocked.

"This is amazing! No previous reports have ever mentioned such power. It is simply unbelievable."

The loving father Comrade Stalin, who always gave people a sense of stability, was rarely shocked, and it was even rarer to be shocked by the power of a weapon.

"This is a well-deserved super weapon! Very good! Voroshilov, do you think it is possible for us to copy and build a few more of these super cannons?"

As one of the first Soviet marshals to survive the Great Purge and remain in office to this day, Comrade Kotin's father-in-law, Marshal Voroshilov, can be said to have always been a core member of his father's side, Comrade Stalin.

Perhaps Marshal Voroshilov's military exploits are not as dazzling as those of newcomers such as Zhukov and Vasilevsky who emerged quickly, but it is undeniable that he is still one of the most trusted veterans around Comrade Stalin.

Regarding military issues, Comrade Stalin was very willing to exchange views with the old marshal.

Hearing Comrade Stalin's continuous exclamations next to him, and seeing the "unbelievable" surprised expression on his face, Marshal Voroshilov quickly spoke after finishing his words.

"I must admit that this weapon can surprise everyone, Comrade Stalin. But given our current situation, I do not recommend that we specifically copy and try to mass-produce such a weapon."

"You can guess just from the appearance of this weapon that the Germans probably spent a long time preparing such a super weapon. I guess that such a super weapon was not originally designed to deal with us. After all, those The Nazis invaded our motherland only later.”

"The Maginot Line built by the French may be the real benchmark. It is simply a fortress-level military city. All the news and intelligence prove that the defense line is unimaginably complex and strong. We are lurking in Europe The comrades reported back that the French were confident that the Germans would lose at least three million troops on this line of defense. Even considering that there was considerable bragging in this, I think it was enough to prove how terrifying this line of defense was. "

Marshal Voroshilov is a very smart old marshal.

Whenever Comrade Stalin discussed a problem or asked for advice from him, the old marshal would always make a series of side-steps. Instead of directly focusing on the core of the problem, he would just go around the topic and continue to give things that require thinking in order to understand. It implies that the meaning you want to express is infinitely close to vague to ordinary people.

But what’s interesting is that the loving father Comrade Stalin, who was the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, still did this. Especially this way of speaking that only pointed out the essential elements but did not focus on the center and left the decision-making power in his own hands was very unfavorable to Comrade Stalin. appetite.

What Marshal Voroshilov wants to express is actually relatively clear and not difficult to understand.

The implication is that those German guys building such super weapons are considered "special tasks" with "specialized skills". If a super weapon can reduce millions of casualties, it will be worth it no matter how much money it takes. After all, the mountains of corpses and seas of blood from World War I are still piled up in history books, emitting a putrid and disgusting smell.

For the Soviet Red Army, certain strategic goals like the Maginot Line did not exist. Rapidly rising military rookies like Zhukov and Vasilevsky had proven with actual combat results that the era of cavalry, trench warfare, and squat warfare The past has passed, now is a new era of three-dimensional rapid penetration and fierce attack of tanks, aircraft and cannons.

To build such a weapon and equipment that meets the standards of World War I and is outdated in World War II is a bit outweighed by the gains. Moreover, our side has been passive in the war so far and has not been able to take the initiative. It has no time to waste people and money to mobilize precious war resources. resources to develop such a weapons project, no matter how much his loving father Comrade Stalin personally likes such super weapons.

Comrade Stalin, the loving father, has a steely wrist, emotional intelligence and excellent IQ that are enough to control the overall situation.

It is unrealistic to build such weapons in batches, Comrade Stalin knew that.

The reason why I just raised the question to Marshal Voroshilov is that Comrade Stalin, who is personally fond of him, was a little too excited. Secondly, Stalin himself was wondering whether the people around him would take the opportunity to say something "ironic" about this issue. I felt very interested for a moment.

The final result of the facts satisfied Comrade Stalin. Marshal Voroshilov did not retort or tell lies just to please himself on this issue. The old marshal beside him is still as trustworthy and capable as ever. Free and easy.

After getting the answer he wanted, Comrade Stalin nodded slightly. After the turbulent inner turmoil gradually calmed down, he spoke again and spoke quietly.

"But we must at least make good use of this weapon in front of us. After all, it doesn't cost a penny, right?"

This time, Marshal Voroshilov nodded to Comrade Stalin in agreement.

"It is very interesting to use the Germans' super weapons to deal with the Germans themselves, Comrade Stalin. We can publicize this a lot, or we can make it into a propaganda weapon to attack the enemy's morale. Every cannon roars like a huge weapon. The sound will cause a double blow to the enemy physically and morally."

Marshal Voroshilov once again put his words into Comrade Stalin's heart, and you can tell just from the cheerful smile floating on the corners of his mouth.

"Your idea is very good, Comrade Voroshilov. Then I will leave this matter to you. We still have to make a lot of preparations for this super weapon. One day we will use it to severely Destroy the enemy's strength and morale."

"As you wish, Comrade Stalin, I will arrange the most capable manpower to handle this matter properly."

The loving father and the comrade Marshal were chatting happily, while on the other side, another pair in an adjacent position were whispering about the horrific scene.

"Can you believe it? Comrade Beria, I almost thought that big cannon was going to explode! I have never dreamed of such a terrifying scene! It's unimaginable that those Germans actually transported it to Stalingrad to prepare for it Fortunately for us, our heroic Comrade Malashenko captured it, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.”

He slightly covered the expression in his eyes with thick reflective spectacle lenses. Beria, who never liked others peering into his heart through the window of his eyes, answered slowly.

"Like you, Comrade Khrushchev, I think this is a very formidable weapon indeed."
