Chapter 2121 Comrade Commander is very unhappy

""

Not only Malashenko, but also Lavrinenko looked confused and completely unexpected after hearing such an answer.

Only in this way, Malashenko can basically understand why the non-combat losses were so large, and the words of the political commissar immediately afterward further confirmed Malashenko's thoughts.

"The tasks assigned to us by our superiors were a bit too heavy. Although the leadership division was not divided into forces, it gave the leadership division a very large frontal battlefield width, handing over all the battles that should have been the responsibility of at least one tank army. Gave it to us.”

"There is no doubt that the Leader Division has the ability to leapfrog and complete its mission, which is determined by our strength. However, frequent changes in the direction of operations, chasing and intercepting the enemy's fleeing troops and maintaining interspersed maneuvers have greatly increased our We need to maintain uninterrupted mechanized march to complete the mission, which is necessary.”

"The enemy's will to resist is not strong, and may even be very weak and collapse at the first touch. However, in order to maximize the annihilation of the enemy's effective strength, block the enemy's retreat path, and disrupt their retreat plan, we have to constantly deal with the enemy's retreat in multiple directions. To put it simply, we were either beating up the fleeing Nazis, or we were chasing and intercepting the fleeing Nazis, almost never really stopping.

"That's where the seemingly scary non-combat losses of technical equipment come from. Most of the vehicles have broken down or broken down. Some have broken load-bearing parts, some have power system failures, and some have direct damage to the track. It is broken and needs repairs, and we have encountered all possible problems that can be encountered in long-distance mechanized marches.”

"Our division only carries ammunition and oil supplies that can sustain a week of normal-intensity frontal combat. Theoretically, it has the ability to conduct independent operations for a week without supplies. This is thanks to the fact that Karamov's logistics support group is large enough. The result is that there are enough mechanized transportation vehicles with strong load capacity to accommodate so much material.”

"However, this high-intensity, long-distance mechanized march was obviously overloaded. The replacement spare parts we carried were not enough to sustain it. We were not prepared to supply corresponding supplies according to this combat plan in advance, so they were quickly overdrawn and consumed."

"Before we set off, Karamov told me that some replacement spare parts involving power systems and running gear have basically been used up. If a large number of cars break down again, they will not have to be replaced. The leader can no longer bear the need for more replacement parts. If we continue to carry out long-distance, high-intensity mechanized marches, the non-combat losses of technical equipment will increase exponentially. This is inevitable."

"But it's okay. Fortunately, our high-intensity mechanized march has ended here, and Auschwitz is our end. We can finally stop and board the train for strategic maneuvers rather than tactical maneuvers. It's just that we have to wait until we arrive in East Prussia After entering the war zone, it is estimated that it will take two days to overhaul equipment and supplies to restore combat effectiveness. I hope the war will give us this time."

If you want to say that Comrade Political Commissar is worthy of being a Comrade Political Commissar, you really can’t say that Comrade Chief of Staff of the Leading Division does not have a strong sense of presence and does not work hard. You have to first ask which other Red Army tank division has such an awesome political commissar?

The political work is done obediently for you, the ideological and cohesion of the troops are at an all-time high, and the whole team screams with joy when there is a war. The logistics co-ordinator and civilian co-ordinator are as good as their own political workers. They can clearly understand the specific situation of the troops below, the reasons for it, and the core of the problem.

It's exactly what Malashenko said. If every division of our Red Army was equipped with a mass-produced version of Comrade Petrov's political commissar, the German would probably be locked up in the Soviet Union screaming for three years and beaten. By 44 He escaped from the Soviet Union in embarrassment only when he was young. This must be written in the history books.

Of course, all jokes aside, Comrade Political Commissar is great because Comrade Political Commissar is great, and the serious things that need to be said should not be left behind.

Malashenko frowned after hearing the complete report and analysis of Comrade Political Commissar, as if he was thinking about something or summarizing something.

In short, when Malashenko spoke again, our comrade's expression was obviously displeased.

"It's not that I'm targeting anyone intentionally, but someone is too unkind. He's going to use the seconded troops to death. Why don't he feel bad if his own troops are used up? Or is it because he knows that he will have to return them sooner or later, so he just does it once and for all? Is that enough? Hey, the leader is an army, why should this woman be tortured to death like this?"

"If I didn't mention this, I would have forgotten. How can a division fight a group army's frontal width? How can he be so reckless? He really knows the limit of the leader's division and stretches the string to the limit. I really want to know if it really happens. What's the use of the leader in this way? How on earth can someone explain it to Moscow? Huh?"

"Oh, and also, even the last supply before leaving Warsaw was provided by my old chief. This means that since we rowed to the south, we haven't used anything from them, and they have given us so much in vain. In the end, our supplies were completely consumed, our people were exhausted, and our equipment was lost a lot. So someone just paid nothing for it? "

"How in the world did such a comfortable and beautiful thing come about? Let's fight, and everyone deserves the credit. Not to mention thank you, even before leaving, there is no farewell and commendation telegram. Is there anyone who does this?"

There was no one else in the carriage where the top commanders of the leadership division were seated. Because a division-level combat meeting was to be held beforehand, all irrelevant personnel had been evacuated to the previous and following carriages in advance. Those who can attend the meeting of comrades and teachers are all Malashenko's confidants and right-hand men. It is for this reason that Malashenko dares to speak the truth and his true thoughts.

Is what Malashenko said true?

Of course, everyone here knows it, including Comrade Chief of Staff who hasn’t said a word since the beginning of the meeting.

Malashenko did not mention the person's name, but everyone here knew who the person was. He just mentioned his name directly to avoid suspicion. After all, he was a marshal, and subordinates could not talk about their superiors. There's something a little bit dishonest there.

After a short moment of silence, Malashenko, who knew this was true but could only turn the page, spoke again helplessly to smooth things over.

"Okay, comrades just need to be clear about some things in their hearts, and they will rot in their stomachs from now on. What's passed is passed. We have to look forward and can't always look back."

"Change the topic and talk about this, the casualty analysis report, Comrade Chief of Staff? It's your turn to speak."
