Chapter 1710 Goodbye Enemies

Malashenko did not interrupt, but quietly waited for Androv's next words.

"But compared to our AK, this thing seems too complicated and clumsy. I haven't used it in depth, but from the simple inspection just now after seizing it, I can feel that this thing is much more complicated than our AK. I personally feel so, which means that it is not so reliable in very complex and harsh environments."

"Maybe it's because of the firing rate, its suppression ability is not as good as our AK. If the Germans don't have the advantage of shooting first, our soldiers will most likely kill the Germans, or at least suppress them in reverse."

"That's about what I want to say. In short, this is a weapon that the Germans may like very much, but it is outdated for us, and it is not worth using like the Iron Fist."

This Androv is not only good at dealing with people and human relations, but now it seems that he is also doing well in professional ability. It is quite good to have such an analysis in the first fight. Malashenko even has a little meaning of "Why didn't I find such a talent earlier?"

"How long have you been in our division? Which unit did you come from?"

Most of the grassroots officers and soldiers of the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division were transferred later. There are indeed not many old team members who have followed Malashenko all the way to the north and south and have not died until now.

And Malashenko can basically remember these people. Even if he can't call their names, he can at least have some impression. Malashenko doesn't remember Androv as one of the old people who followed him, so it is likely that he was transferred from other units later.

The answer that followed was exactly as Malashenko thought.

"Report to the division commander, I was originally a tactical instructor of the Moscow garrison. When the Germans came to Moscow in 1941, I went to the front line. At that time, I was a squad leader. Later, I served in several troops, was disbanded many times, reassigned many times, was captured by the Germans, snatched a gun on the way to the prisoner-of-war camp, escaped and was subjected to political investigation, and almost died several times, but finally returned to the team." "Last year, I was shot in the stomach and my stomach and intestines were pierced. I came back to rest in the rear for half a year before I was allowed to return to the team. The order I received was to go to the newly formed Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division. At that time, I felt it was unbelievable because the division commander was the legendary tank hero Comrade Malashenko, and then I am like this now." Wow! This buddy's resume is a bit awesome! The above sentence was Malashenko's first reaction after listening to the narration, and it was absolutely true. Tactical instructor of the Moscow garrison? This title is quite capable. Those who could become officers in the Moscow garrison before the war either had strong connections or were really capable.

Considering that this guy's position was a tactical instructor, it was not something that could be achieved by just relying on connections. This position could not be occupied by a good-for-nothing, as that would cause big problems.

Even though he was just a small instructor, the significance of this was different. Malashenko even suspected that Valosha had some grudge against this brother and deliberately made things difficult for him, so he was sent to lead the battalion with the weakest combat power.

"Well, let me put it this way, Comrade Androv. The comprehensive combat power of your battalion ranks last in your regiment. You should know this. The report submitted by Valosha mentioned it many times. The political commissar also found the same result when he went down to investigate. I think this is probably not wrong."

"Based on your personal resume, I judge that your ability should be more than that, so why is this?"

Malachenko said it very tactfully, but Androv did understand what the division commander wanted to express, and he did not hesitate to speak directly.

"You may not know my shortcomings, division commander. I love drinking very much. I have violated discipline several times because of this, and I have delayed a lot of things on weekdays. The regiment commander has taken good care of me. And the other battalion commanders are better than me, so you know about our battalion. It is written in black and white in the report."

""

Drinking will cause trouble, and it is even more of a problem if you are addicted to alcohol.

This truth is not only clear to Malachenko, but also to almost everyone on earth, except that the alcoholics themselves may not agree.

But in this case, it can explain why the third battalion led by Androv has the worst combat effectiveness.

Malashenko estimated that this kid might not be the kind of guy who likes to "make trouble". It is very likely that he would drink over the bottle of wine when he is free. Otherwise, with his resume and ability, how could he lead the troops to the bottom of the combat effectiveness.

But what is even more bizarre is that he had no idea that the commander of the third battalion of the infantry regiment was addicted to alcohol. It seems that Valosha's "care" for Androv is really extraordinary.

Not to mention giving Valosha a good lesson, but at least he will find a chance to ask what happened after he comes down. After making up his mind, Malashenko waved his hand, indicating that the conversation could end here.

Watching the back of Major Androv saluting and turning away, Malashenko continued to ask Kurbalov who had been following him and waiting.

"The enemies this time are a little weird, have you noticed? The tire tracks and track marks all come from the west. The position has not been repaired yet, and it was only half done in a hurry. This at least shows that this group of enemies is not from the encirclement." The troops were just killed in front of us from the depth of the German-controlled area."

"But the weapons they brought seemed to have been carefully prepared, and the number of anti-tank weapons was unusual. They looked like a well-prepared specialized anti-armor force. What I want to say is, this is definitely not a group. The bastards of the infantry division just brought a few tanks over to make up the numbers. Maybe they are the enemy's elites. Have you found out what their serial numbers are?"

Kulbalov, who was stunned by Malashenko's question, didn't know anything about it. He was completely busy thinking about how to explain the situation to Malashenko and how to deal with it. He had no time to worry about post-war matters. There's no time to take care of it.

Kulbalov, who had no intention of pretending to understand, simply called the deputy commander who was sent to deal with post-war matters and asked him to explain the situation to Malashenko.

It's just that the deputy commander didn't say anything. This opening immediately brought Comrade Ma's memory back to the extremely miserable year of 1941 when he was chased and beaten by the Germans. He even wanted to ask, "What's this?" Why are you here now, you bastard?"

"I have already asked the question from the prisoners, comrade division commander. These Wehrmacht bastards are an advance battalion of the Grossdeutschland Armored Division, and they also brought with them a tank that was not satisfied with the formation of the battalion. The whole division is a reorganized and upgraded unit, formerly known as Grossdeutschland Infantry Division. corps."
