Chapter 3256 Backhand (Part 1)

One marshal passed away, but the other marshal entrusted to him is still moving forward firmly. ◆𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐞 Search for 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝟓𝟐𝟎𝐜𝐨𝐦Read◆

Time also continued to move forward, and soon came to the first important node in Malashenko's plan.

"I said that I have completed all the retirement procedures, why don't you let me go? You insist on asking me to come to Moscow to report to you, and you won't let me live in peace even if you retire, right?"

Entering Malashenko's office, there were not many people who could speak in such a tone. Lavrinenko, an old classmate and comrade-in-arms, was one of them.

Looking at coach Lavrinenko, who is still very strong after many years of military career and has served as the commander of the East German cluster until his retirement, Malashenko, who has some ideas about where his old classmate will go after retirement, immediately spoke.

"There is something I want to entrust you to do. You are the most suitable person I can think of in terms of leadership and management experience, and the matter is important, so I can only entrust you with this matter."

"I knew it would be no good if you called me here. I will continue to be ordered by you after I retire."

Lavrinenko, who pretended to be displeased, didn't say much nonsense. He made a few remarks and then continued to speak.

"Okay, just tell me. I happened to owe you a lot of favors during my years as the commander of the East German cluster. I don't want you to charge interest after I retire. Tell me, how can I help you?"

"When I went to work at the Lenin Nuclear Power Plant, I drafted a new militarized safety management system and chose the Lenin Nuclear Power Plant for pilot implementation. Comrade Brezhnev approved and supported my plan. I elected you as the new safety management system. Chief Officer, once approved, you will receive the highest level of safety and quality management authority, and everything will be handed over to you."

"Lenin Nuclear Power Plant?"

Lavrinenko, who looked in disbelief, had no idea that Malashenko would come to him for this matter.

After thinking about it, he felt that it was neither rejection nor rejection. There was always some uncertainty. Lavrinenko, who thought it was better to make things clear first, spoke immediately.

"If I remember correctly, it was in front of Pripyat? I seemed to have gone on an inspection with you before, so I guess I remember correctly."

"But, I don't have any professional knowledge in this area. I only know how to use nuclear weapons. But nuclear power plants, do you really think I can do this? Can I do this job?"

After hearing this, he smiled and handed the report on the new safety regulations and militarized management model to Lavrinenko and asked him to take it and read it.

Malashenko, who was talking while reading the report, continued to smile and speak.

"Based on the new safety management rules and regulations, I will send a professional team to assist you, including top nuclear physicists and safety management experts. They will provide you with sufficient collective wisdom and team suggestions."

"And what you have to do is lead them and turn collective wisdom into practical implementation. This is what you are good at, isn't it?"

"There is no reason why a commander who can manage 350,000 top-level elite troops cannot do this. What's more, the nuclear weapons you manage have never had safety and quality problems. Doesn't this count as experience? I believe you, Raf , and you have to believe in yourself.”

""

While listening to Malashenko's words, he flipped through the report in his hand.

You don’t know if you don’t look at it, but at first glance, you will find that it is extremely detailed and has almost everything that should be included. It must have been a long-term preparation and repeated polishing before such a thing was born.

So, with this written guidance document in hand, plus the help Malashenko just promised to provide.

Lavrinenko, who considered it comprehensively based on his own abilities and experience, finally nodded firmly and gave a positive answer.

"Okay, I'll give it a try. No, I should say I'm guaranteed to complete the task."

"But we can agree on the premise. If something goes wrong with me and I can no longer work, you have to find a substitute for me. Don't use me in that position until I die. I I hope I can go home and hold my grandson for two days of happiness.”

After hearing what Lavrinenko said, Malashenko, who gestured to himself with his hands spread out, immediately responded.

"Why are you anxious? I'm still working in a position where I can't leave people for a moment. It's easier to manage a nuclear power plant than to manage 350,000 elite troops, right? This is equivalent to semi-retirement for you, and I didn't even complain. I’m tired, what are you talking about here?”

"Hey, have you ever asked for help with something like this? You didn't say nice things to me, but you did it anyway."

"Come on, come on, stop pretending to me that you have something and don't have it. I don't know what you are like? The older you get, the more pretentious you become, just like the little girls at the entrance of the village."

"Hey!"

A pair of old comrades started bickering as if they had gone to the battlefield together when they were young, but a major event was indeed decided just like that.

For Malashenko, Lavrinenko is one of the people he trusts most, and he is absolutely senior. His management ability is meticulous and unquestionable. The world's most powerful army field group of 350,000 people is in it. Under the leadership, it has been developing in an orderly and steady manner.

From the time Lavrinenko took office to the time he left office, the East German cluster did not have a single moderate or above security incident during this period, and it was one of the units with the highest safety guarantee rate among all Soviet military clusters stationed abroad.

With such a beautiful professional resume and the familiarity and trust of his old comrades, Malashenko has every reason to believe that Lavrinenko is qualified for this position, just as he believes that his choice will not be wrong.

After sending away Lavrinenko, who had "followed the order and prepared to be laid off and re-employed", Malashenko soon welcomed another familiar person in his office, who has now been promoted to the rank of general of the Airborne Forces. of alsim.

Malashenko, who got straight to the point, did not beat around the bush. After the simple greetings were completed and Alsim took his seat, the first sentence he opened his mouth went straight to the topic.

"What do you think of this kid Nikolai? You have been training him, and he is willing to become your teacher. I want to hear your teacher's summary."

"As for Nikolai, he is very good. He is a very outstanding young man, Comrade Marshal. At least the bastard in my family is far behind him. This kid has not embarrassed you. This is the truth."

"Um"

I heard that Alsim's evaluation was pretty good, and I did understand some of the situation privately, so I was quite satisfied with the results.

Malashenko, who did not want to dump a burden on his old subordinates, immediately spoke.

"Niklai always hopes to learn more from you, so take him to your side, Alsim. Try to take him with you and see if you can train him in the direction of command and transfer him to a subordinate. The procedures for arriving at the Airborne Force are also left to you."

"Of course, this is not mandatory. If he doesn't have the commanding talent and can't develop in this direction, don't put any psychological burden on him, just say it. In short, I want him to give it a try first and see what he has. There is no talent in this area.”
