Chapter 1369 No one can escape

Leading one of the most elite tank units in the entire Red Army, this really put a lot of pressure on our Comrade Lao Ma, at least it used to be so.

Although the young Malashenko has many comrades by his side and work together, this heavy burden and the responsibilities entrusted to him by countless soldiers often make Malashenko feel powerless and overwhelmed in the dead of night when he is alone. It was so stressful that I could barely breathe.

Although he is a time traveler, if viewed from a purely indifferent perspective, Malashenko does not seem to have to think too much about this, let alone be responsible for it. After all, this is history that has already happened in the future, and it is a dry and empty text that will be recorded in the annals of history. However, Malashenko, who has been in this era for a long time, has never thought about it this way.

The people around him are all real people. Malashenko tried to escape, not to want to face these bad things, but the facts turned out to be impossible.

Watch those people in history, people who can't even leave a black and white text, fall and pass away beside you in the form of fresh life. The phrase "people's hearts are full of flesh" is perfect to describe Malashenko. Malashenko has shouldered this heavy burden and responsibility and has been trying his best to do his best.

But as for how to do it specifically, Comrade Ma himself doesn’t know clearly.

Why is it said that humans are single, fragile, social animals? Because human beings can only gain recognition from their peers in groups. People who are alone will never feel this emotion and the warmth it brings. Even those who appear to be strong cannot break out of this defined circle.

Yes, Malashenko himself is such a person, and it is normal to desire recognition in his heart.

However, Malashenko, who stands too high, can gain most of the admiration, following, trust and trust.

For Malashenko, the word "identity" always feels a little too far away.

It's like the kings of ancient times were followed by thousands of armies, but there were very few people who could truly stand shoulder to shoulder with the kings, move forward with them, and give their approval.

Kings are mostly lonely.

There may be some inappropriate descriptions, but in Stalin's 1st Guards Tank Division, Malashenko is the undoubted king. Even Comrade Political Commissar or Lavrinenko is still a little bit behind Malashenko who stands at the highest point.

A person who doesn't know exactly what he is longing for can only suddenly realize when he obtains this thing: It turns out that this is what I need. It is what I have been confused, longed for, and searched for!

Malashenko has received various recognitions from Comrade Comrade Comrade Comrade Comrade Lavrinenko, Zhukov, Vatutin, and even Stalin, and many of them are even taken for granted.

However, it was an unprecedented first time for Malashenko to suddenly receive such recognition from the troops he personally led without any warning.

how does it feel?

Malashenko didn’t know how to describe it, but it was indeed a pleasure that he had never experienced before in his memory and thoughts, and it even made Malashenko feel that this was what I needed.

In the end, Comrade Division Commander did not say anything more, but returned the favor to all the comrades in the division with a grateful face. This was undoubtedly sincere.

Sometimes the more unintentional actions can enhance the cohesion of a group. This is not guided by the political commissar comrades intentionally. At best, it can only be said that it was given a push at the right time. It is impossible for anyone to have such a result. No one expected it in advance.

"Maybe you don't want to hear it, but I still have to say it."

At the door of the division headquarters tent, Malashenko and his political commissar comrades, who had come out for some air, were squatting there together smoking.

"When I'm no longer here, this army actually doesn't have to have my existence anymore."

"Everything is in order. With you as the center, the comrades are firmly united around their comrade, the division commander. They have the confidence and ability to overcome all the powerful enemies and difficulties they will face in the future."

"The political commissar is a product of a special background and has a necessity for its existence. After I leave, there will definitely be someone else to take over my position. But no matter who that person is or what the situation is, you just need to do what you think What should be done, I firmly believe that the future of this army and you will be better, just like our motherland, my life should also have a satisfactory ending. "

It is inevitable for a person to talk too much when his life is short. Malashenko can indeed detect subtle changes in his political commissar comrades, but this is not annoying.

"Then what should I do? Carve these words on your tombstone? I'm afraid I can't even carve one, so I have to get you two, right?"

Malashenko smiled, and the political commissar also laughed. It is always better to have a relaxed and happy conversation than to be heavy with each other.

"To think about these annoying things, it's better to think about how to fight in the afternoon."

"I just studied the map of the theater, and also looked at the telegrams and aerial reconnaissance reports from the front army headquarters. Now the Germans around us have basically been wiped out, or they have received orders to attack other The direction has moved. In short, we have to re-plan the next step of action. "

"The enemy is shrinking its defenses. Troops from many directions have gathered in one place. There may be some large-scale action. It is unlikely to continue to launch a large-scale battle. If external reinforcements cannot come in, the Germans do not have this ability. We will not misjudge the situation and become so rampant.”

"I think there is a high probability that the Germans will break out of the encirclement next, but we need to ask for your opinion on the direction. Our next action goal should not be limited to destroying more enemies, it should be to block the openings at key locations. Build a strong interception line to ensure that no Germans in the encirclement can escape. "

There are some things that Malashenko would not like to say clearly. The historical Cherkasy Iron Encirclement Battle was actually not a perfect success. In the end, the Germans hurriedly abandoned their armor and escaped, including the inhumane scum of the Viking division.

Malashenko, who remembers this clearly, will not forget that after studying and judging the current battle situation, the Germans' breakout is almost foreseeable. If no action is taken, it may have to continue to repeat the same mistakes. This is obviously not what Malashenko wants to see.

Malashenko did not fight many battles to block the enemy's breakthrough points.

But no matter how experienced he is or whether the conditions are favorable, Malashenko is determined to make Cherkasy into a steel coffin for the Germans this time. Whether it is a Ukrainian traitor or an SS scum, they are all the same. Don't even think about running.
