Chapter 1928 I think of happy things

Although an exchange and cooperation agreement with the Allied Forces has been signed, this does not mean that the Allied Forces will now be able to obtain the coveted IS reading М

In line with the principles of barter and fair trade, the prototype of the IS6 heavy tank and a full set of design drawings and technical information need to wait until the Allies come up with equivalent exchanges, that is, the aeroengine and a complete set of related things. After all are sent to the Soviet Union, the cargo ship containing the IS6 family barrels will set sail for the United States.

As for how Britain and the United States are divided into IS6 family buckets, the Soviet Union has nothing to do with it. You two can divide it as you like. I just need to get what I want.

As the main speaker and instructor of this training cooperation plan, Malashenko understood these situations through the materials Malokov gave him, but in Malashenko's opinion, this matter should be Another meaning cannot be explained clearly.

The IS6 heavy tank itself is far from advanced and does not have any high-tech gadgets. The entire body is a wartime product assembled from off-the-shelf products. Such strong combat power is only supported by outstanding integrated design capabilities. Of course, the ready-made shelf products themselves are mature and reliable, and they also play an important role in this.

Of course Malashenko is very aware of the above situations, but the Allies know nothing about it. All I know is that the IS6 heavy tank is very powerful, and in the hands of the Soviet elite Guards tank troops, it is enough to beat the German tanks to the ground.

Therefore, judging from the comprehensive analysis of the current situation, Malashenko is basically convinced that the Allies must have mistakenly thought that the IS6 heavy tank used some new technology that they are currently unable to achieve or are not aware of. I hope that by getting the actual prototype of the IS6 heavy tank plus a full set of design information and drawings, we can understand the secrets hidden in it, so as to improve the strength of our new tank.

If you can figure it out yourself, there's no reason why the people above can't figure it out.

If this is the case, the reason why we have to wait until the British and Americans start shipping before packing and shipping the IS6 family barrels is very intriguing and even a little funny.

"I really want to see the expressions of Americans and British people when they actually get the things. I can't afford this surprise if I don't appear on the cover of Time Magazine. I'm really stunned."

"General, what are you laughing at?"

The more he thought about it, the happier Malashenko felt. He couldn't hold it back and laughed a little, but it didn't matter. Colonel Jack noticed it and asked questions. Realizing that he had not been able to hold back for a while, Malashenko hurriedly responded, pretending that nothing was wrong and forced himself to speak seriously.

"Nothing, I just remembered something happy.

"What happy thing?"

Colonel Jack blinked and asked subconsciously, but Malashenko did not intend to continue to answer. Instead, he brushed off the topic and changed the topic.

"Let's go, the vehicles are ready. Don't you really want to experience the powerful tanks currently in service in our army? The opportunity has come, but you must cherish it."

The row of "trial version" tanks neatly parked on the test site cannot be the IS6 heavy tanks that the Allies dream of. Now is not the time to let these Allied officers come into contact with real objects. Some secrets must be kept until the end to be called secrets and perfect enough.

Looking at these IS2 heavy tanks that have been away for a long time and have not been touched for a long time. Malashenko couldn't help but silently sighed, "When was the last time I drove this thing?", completely ignoring the Allied officers following him who had already begun to whisper.

"This is the Russian heavy tank that can beat the crap out of those Germans? It's unbelievable. They look bigger than any of our tanks."

"Hey! Open your eyes and take a closer look. There are differences. This is not the kind of car we saw when we went to the battlefield to observe. On the contrary, the design style is definitely the work of the Russians."

"I said you have to be more open-minded. That is the latest heavy tank of the Russians. Along the way to the front line, we also visited several other elite Guards tank divisions of the Russians. Except for this leader division, most of the other divisions They are all using the tank in front of us. Even if there are such latest heavy tanks, there are very few of them. They can't be compared with the leader's division. How can it be possible for the Russians to use them casually if they don't have the equipment to be popularized throughout the army? Show it to others? This is basic common sense. Would you do this if it were you?”

"Well, when you say that, it seems to make sense. Anyway, they are things I have never seen before. I can't wait to go in and visit them. I am excited just thinking about being able to drive such a big thing with my own hands. ”

Although some basic common sense training was conducted yesterday, and the customized English version of the operation manual prepared in advance has been distributed and has fallen into the hands of each of these British and American military officers, this does not mean that these guys Learn how to use a Soviet tank in just one day.

Although it is true that these people were all armored soldiers, before growing up to be an armored force commander, they all drove their own vehicles and commanded an armored force to participate in front-line battles, just like Malashenko.

But there are many differences between tanks made by the United Kingdom and the United States and tanks made by the Soviet Union. Even if there is no difference in general, a bunch of subtle differences can still make people confused for the first time. You may be in a hurry and may even not be able to drive the car at all.

Considering this practical problem, the Soviet army specially prepared a group of experienced tank soldiers who could also speak English. Like Malashenko, they made a special trip from the front to the rear to perform this mission.

The only thing that needed to be done was to be mixed into each vehicle group, with one person from each group, responsible for directly teaching these Americans and British people how to play with Soviet tanks. Even if you can speak English, you don't need an interpreter. You can communicate directly, which is convenient and fast, but this is mainly because there is really no room for an extra translator in the already crowded and narrow tank.

These days, it is necessary to recruit a group of people who speak fluent English, can communicate directly, and have rich combat experience, who can teach Americans and British people how to play with Soviet tanks, and who can stand the test, be trustworthy, and be entrusted with it. The frontline tank soldiers for this important mission are really hard to find.

A group of Red Army tank soldiers who made a special trip back from the front line were mostly from different units, and there was a huge gap in military ranks and positions.

Except for Malashenko, the highest-ranking major general and division commander, the other tank soldiers participating in the mission had various military positions from the colonel commander down. The lowest one was also a lieutenant, and all of them were well-educated and all were A party member from a serious military academy.

It may seem a bit outrageous at first glance, but in fact it is not difficult to understand if you think about it carefully.

Before you can ensure that a person is qualified for the task, you must first ensure that he can stand the test and be trusted enough to perform this high-level confidential task. At least until the transaction cooperation is completed, neither London nor Washington and Moscow want the Germans to know the existence of this cooperation. Anyone involved in the plan must keep it strictly confidential.

And this is probably difficult for many ordinary soldiers who have not joined the party to do, or even if they can do it, there are people more suitable than him to do it. It's that simple.
