Chapter 1596 Malashenko’s big deception

"Is this really possible? Comrade General.

Although he was already excited and really wanted to agree to it, Morozov still had the last trace of uncertainty in his heart, or it could be said that it was out of uneasiness about the unknown.

Malashenko took a deep breath and tried to make his expression more serious and non-joking.

"You should know how Kotin and I have cooperated for a long time, right? You know, right? Comrade Morozov."

""

As a competitor of Kotin, it is naturally impossible for Morozov to be so big-hearted that he does not pay attention to the situation on Kotin's side.

In fact, Morozov was not only very concerned, but even envious.

Malashenko and Kogin's trick of taking the prototype directly to the battlefield for testing is theoretically illegal.

But this trick played by two people just works. There are indeed many excellent heavy tanks that can be used to beat the German sticks until they pee and moan.

Malashenko gave suggestions and opinions to Kogin. Kogin designed a better heavy tank based on Malashenko's feedback requirements, and then delivered the new vehicle to Malashenko in small batches for front-line testing.

The feedback result of the test is nothing more than that the German sticks have been taken to the sky. The new heavy tanks are easy to use. We should speed up the mass production and replacement. At the same time, we also attached a combat record sent back by Malashenko from the front line. Reports and Opinions.

Then, Kogin took his own plan and Comrade Ma's report and went to Moscow to ask for project approval.

Due to Comrade Lao Ma's reputation and Coking's reputation as the "Father of Red Army Heavy Tanks," the final result of the two strong alliances is nothing more than the approval of the project.

With the support of more powerful new heavy tanks as practical examples, Malashenko then made demands to Kotin, who then designed a new vehicle, and then sent it to the front line to beat the shit out of the Germans, and finally took the plan to Moscow for approval. .

This has actually formed a great virtuous cycle, and it has been like this since the IS1 heavy tank.

The big bosses above did not interfere or say anything about the cooperation between Malashenko and Kotin. After all, even the loving father comrade acquiesced to this and said nothing. No matter how awesome you are, can you still be more awesome than a loving father? Just shut up and wait until no one treats you as a mute. How many of the guys who can hang out on Moscow streets don't have enough IQ? No one would do something stupid like this.

Is Morozov, who knows this situation, envious?

To be honest, I'm envious.

Because for Ke Jing and the head of the design bureau, this means a tilt in production resources and production weight, as well as inexhaustible R\u0026D funds. Even Comrade Stalin is always smiling and friendly.

But Morozov really couldn't find anyone as powerful as Malashenko to partner with him.

Morozov did have the idea of ​​cooperating with Katukov, but the actual feedback and suggestions submitted by Katukov several times were somewhat unrealistic.

It’s not that the requirements and standards are too high, the Second Design Bureau cannot produce such awesome and advanced stuff.

What was actually built was really difficult to meet the actual demand standards, and the prototype vehicle test ended in failure. The T34100 prototype called "Cherno Alpha" is such an example of failure.

Maybe Katukov is really not as powerful as Malashenko, but it may also be his own problem.

Morozov couldn't say it well, and he didn't want to gossip behind his back. He rated the two frontline commanders Malashenko and Katukov so that others could hear him gossiping.

But Morozov did inadvertently guess one thing right, that is, Comrade Ma is really more powerful than Katukov, and this level of power is beyond one dimension.

Of course, this kind of prowess refers to Malashenko, as a time traveler, and his vision of what kind of equipment design ideas and development directions are correct. In this regard, he has a foresight that cannot be matched by any indigenous people of this era. sex.

To put it bluntly, as long as it is the design idea given by Malashenko, in fact, there is no need to even think about it, and trial and error can be avoided. It is definitely the most suitable choice for actual combat needs.

Sounds cool, right?

In fact, it's nothing. It's just the innate attributes of the time traveler, but it's also a great plug-in.

Morozov, who had no idea about this, had no idea about the biggest secret hidden in Malashenko: the time traveler.

Under such circumstances, it is actually completely understandable to be hesitant and undecided. Anyone who encounters such a thing will be upset and have to think about it carefully.

Malashenko understood and understood, so he did not continue to speak after the words faded. He just stood there quietly waiting for the moment when Morozov spoke again.

The olive branch of cooperation has been handed over. What should be said and what should be expressed have been made clear by himself. The rest can only be seen by Morozov himself. This is not something that Malashenko can force or express. The decision was made for him, Morozov.

I don’t know how long it took, but Morozov, who had calmed down, finally spoke quietly when Malashenko felt a little bored.

"I hope that when I grow old, I will be glad that I made such a decision today, Comrade General. I will follow your advice and wish us a happy cooperation!"

Malashenko turned around and looked at the serious expression on Morozov's face. "The matter is finally done. I didn't run this trip in vain." Comrade Ma breathed a sigh of relief.

"Believe me, there will be such a day, Comrade Morozov, I promise you."

"The cooperation between you and me will definitely be recorded in the annals of history! This will save the lives of countless Red Army soldiers and crush the evil heart of Nazi fascism as soon as possible. It will definitely!"

The new infantry fighting vehicle project called "Iron Box Girl" was finalized, but Morozov still needed Malashenko to do one more thing: write a "I like her very much" for "Iron Box Girl" His handwritten report will be shown to those in Moscow.

Not to mention immediately approving mass production, at least the formal launch of this research and development project must be approved. Otherwise, there won’t even be a formal project code name, and it will not be a serious matter after all.

In the next few days, Malashenko stayed with Morozov, including food and accommodation.

In addition to conceiving and writing a report as detailed and convincing as possible, Malashenko also gave Morozov many detailed opinions and suggestions, which made Morozov feel enlightened and gained a lot.

According to Malashenko's suggestion, the new infantry fighting vehicle was removed from the original open-top leaky machine gun turret and replaced by a small fully enclosed turret with a 25mm automatic cannon and a 62mm coaxial machine gun that was rebuilt on the design drawings. , similar to a condensed version of the T43 turret configuration.

Just like the 85mm tank gun, which was originally designed from the anti-aircraft gun, this 25mm automatic cannon was originally a small-caliber anti-aircraft gun of the Red Army.

What Morozov had to do was move this thing, which was much smaller than a tank gun, into the turret.

Because of the simple design and compact shape, this task is actually not difficult and can be completed quickly after the project is officially launched.

Some of the butterfly effects that will set off major changes in the near future have actually started to slowly flap their wings since then.
