Chapter 1699 The situation is not good

Appreciating this shabby German car can only be regarded as a small interlude at best. Malashenko doesn’t have time to sit here forever. There are more important things to do next. Stay in this seventy-year-old city that is full of bloody stench. It's really not a good thing to be in a huge coffin.

"Damn it, that boy Iushkin is right! The blood from the dog's blood is sour and smelly, and it's all over his hands! It's also fucking slimy, bastard!"

He couldn't tell whether the thing on his hands was human blood or brain matter. Anyway, Malashenko, who felt extremely sick, held on to the door frame and climbed out again along the escape hatch at the rear of the fighting room and arrived. Outside, it’s a breath of refreshing fresh air.

"Ah, damn, I'm alive! The smell is so bad it hurts my nose!"

Of course, getting into the belly of a hunting tiger to see what's going on inside is not just to satisfy curiosity. If he were to just go in and be a spectator, Comrade Lao Ma wouldn't be in the mood, let alone have the time.

After getting into the hunting tiger for such a tour, Malashenko's biggest gain was to confirm with his own eyes that the hunting tiger has almost no major changes compared with the existing history.

The gun is still the same 128mm gun with no rim, and of course the ammunition is still 128mm full-caliber hooded armor-piercing projectiles and high-explosive grenades.

Tiger hunting in existing history used these gadgets, and there are no major changes in the current timeline that has changed beyond recognition.

In fact, Malashenko has always been worried about whether the Germans will come up with some new armor-piercing projectiles to deal with him. From the current situation, fortunately, no such bloody thing has happened. If the Germans also come up with discarding sabots, Malashenko thought, he would have a lot of fun, and all the vehicles in the division except the IS4 would be turned into scrap metal in an instant.

Just the 71 times the diameter of the super long barrel of the 88, plus the muzzle velocity of up to 1,000 meters per second when firing full-caliber bullets. Malashenko has no doubt that if this thing is used to take off, it is probably easy to overturn the main armor belt on the front of the IS6's body. If the shot is accurate, even the IS4 can be flipped frontally. , this is absolutely possible.

Taking precautions, Malashenko is now thinking about things in the more distant future. For example, if the Germans completely capture their own armor-piercing discarding sabots, will they be inspired to directly start reverse engineering and imitate them for mass production?

With the skills of the Germans, it is possible to imitate this kind of thing just by looking at it. The discarding sabot armor-piercing projectile is only advanced in terms of design concept. Manufacturing this thing itself does not require high technology. It can be easily understood and put into production quickly at the level of a German. The key depends on whether the German wants to do this. .

"Wait a minute, according to the history, after the Germans seized the fireflies, they didn't seem to be inspired by the British ones to imitate them? Well, you still can't take it lightly. Let's go back and discuss this matter with the political commissar. The old man is probably better than I've thought it through."

Malashenko, who doesn't like to rack his brains to think about one thing and get into trouble, just gave up. He put the annoying problems aside for the time being, and it's not too late to talk about it later.

He bent down and picked up a rag from a German uniform that was probably blown to pieces and used it as a rag. He wiped the sticky things on his hands casually and was about to leave to find someone who had probably arrived at the position. Comrade Comrade Political Commissar, the truth that Cao Cao has arrived has once again come true at this moment.

"Uh, what did you do? Why are your clothes and pants covered in blood? Are you injured?"

Looking at Malashenko's lively and normal appearance, the political commissar comrade who had just arrived after taking care of the matter at hand felt that the blood probably did not belong to Malashenko. But out of concern, I asked one more question, and Comrade Lao Ma's immediate answer reassured Comrade Political Commissar a lot.

"It's definitely not mine! The Germans put in a new type of heavy anti-tank destroyer to trick us, but we turned it around and killed them all without leaving any one behind! Here, it's this thing behind me. After that, how many brothers are there? Out of curiosity, I got in and took a look, and it turned out that the floor and bulkhead of the car were covered with stinky German body parts, and they were all bloody. That’s what happened to me.”

What Malashenko said was very similar to what Comrade Comrade Political Commissar had guessed. Commissar Petrov nodded slightly and then continued to speak to Malashenko.

"We'll talk about other things later. You have to read the emergency telegram just sent by the Front Army Headquarters immediately."

"Emergency telegram? What did it say?"

While muttering, Malashenko did not stop moving his hands. He reached out to take the telegram handed over by Comrade Political Commissar, and immediately began to read carefully word for word, accompanied by the answers and explanations given by Comrade Political Commissar.

"As Commander Vatutin expected before the war, our covert raid did not last long. After suffering yesterday's fierce attack, the Germans immediately realized that the main attack direction was not the Southern Group cluster, and immediately began to dispatch a large number of reinforcements to the north to return reinforcements. Among them Contains a large number of armored troops."

"The First Ukrainian Front has tried its best to attack Army Group South and try to hold them back."

"But the Germans have indeed seen through our strategic deception and determined that the main attack direction is on the side of Army Group Center. The reinforcement movement to the north seems to be determined and unstoppable. Moreover, the current assault vanguard of the Ukrainian First Front is currently It hasn’t penetrated deep into the Germans’ position yet, so it can’t stop them from moving northward for reinforcements. It can only attract them at best.”

"Commander Vatutin sent the message to remind us to speed up the completion of the planned plan, and then be ready to fight with the Germans' main armored forces. The offensive against Army Group Center is currently the most rapid and intensive attack here. Once the German armored forces are in place, they will immediately come back to block the attack. This is inevitable. "

What is written in the telegram is not as detailed as Comrade Comrade Political Commissar said. This is the analysis made by Political Commissar Petrov based on all the information collected by the division headquarters and combined with the telegram from the Front Army Headquarters. After reading the telegram Malashenko even felt that looking at the gadgets was a bit redundant and a waste of time.

"How is the situation with Lavry and Kulbalov?"

As in the pre-combat plan, the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division, which had a large force and was comparable to a tank corps, was divided into three parts on a regiment basis, each of which was located in an offensive direction to launch an assault. Malashenko leads the center, while Lavry and Kulbalov lead the north and south routes respectively. Malashenko is concerned about where his two generals are now.
