Chapter 342 Reverse Butterfly

"Hermann, tell me, how many tanks of the same model are there that are exactly the same as this tank? Don't try to fool me. I know that this guy in front of me is the latest improved model. You Germans have replaced the Panzer III with a more advanced one. High caliber main gun, now I want to know all the accurate information about her."

Major Hermann, who like Squad Leader Diyakov was born in the infantry, although he was a top student who was sent to the front line from the German General Staff, he has more professional knowledge in the military field than Squad Leader Diyakov, who came from a humble background and only received basic education and training. Much better.

However, due to different professional fields, Major Herman, who has little experience and is similar in age to Malashenko, also knows very little about the new tanks in front of him.

"I don't know much about the new tanks that have arrived at the front line. I don't need to lie to you about this. Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, you should know that in the military field, there are almost no people who can achieve cross-border proficiency. That guy doesn’t exist at all.”

Malashenko, who knew what he wanted to express, was not surprised at all by what Major Herman said to a layman, which sounded like an excuse to excuse himself.

On the other hand, if Herman, who was a professional infantryman, could really pour out all the detailed information on the tanks in front of him like beans from a bamboo tube, that would be called a strange thing in the eyes of Malashenko.

"I understand what you mean, Herman. Just tell me briefly what you know, but remember not to hide, deceive or reserve anything from me. I can save your comrades from life and death, and I can do the same." Send them back, you know what I mean?"

Hermann, who understood Malashenko's meaning from his firm eyes, knew that the Soviet tank commander in front of him could definitely do what he said without mercy, and had no intention of doing anything to Malashenko. Major Herman, who had deceived his reservations, took a breath and spoke immediately.

"I don't know the specific date when these new tanks will arrive for replacement, because the armored troops using these tanks have been using them since they met with us. At that time, these tanks were still very new, and some tanks even had There were no scratches or peeling paint, they looked like they had just stepped off the production line. I remember the day we met was November 2nd.”

"November 2? Damn you, that's nearly half a month earlier than I expected! I hope those ghost guys who wrote the history of the Soviet-German war really made up the date of actual combat. good."

Malashenko, who secretly cursed in his heart and then shook his head slightly, looked very worried.

As a future time traveler, Malashenko's biggest advantage is not the golden finger plug-in in some time travel novels, nor is it the golden retriever form of the Ten Times Kaio Fist that can blow up a planet with one punch.

The biggest advantage of Malashenko, who was just a mortal body and traveled to this cruel war era, was his advance prediction and accurate grasp of the original historical trend, and this was what he wanted to climb up in this war-torn era. and the most basic ability to survive.

But now the German Army's batch of Type III J1 medium tanks entered the war one month ahead of schedule, which completely disrupted Malashenko's thoughts. He only wanted to use his butterfly effect to change the direction of the Soviet army and crush the German Army. In my heart, I never expected that what I did would have an unpredictable acceleration effect on the development of the German army.

Malashenko, who had been silent for a long time with a bad face and said nothing, finally figured out and understood something after thinking hard for several minutes.

If you really want to understand the butterfly effect of a time traveler, it is not only beneficial to the direction you want. To be precise, it is a sharp double-edged sword that must be carefully controlled and used properly.

If this sword is used properly, Malashenko's plan to rise through the ranks and accelerate the development of Soviet tanks will naturally be realized.

But in contrast, Germany, which was on the opposite side of the Soviet Union during the war, was not a fool. War is a side effect and a powerful accelerator that promotes human scientific progress and the development of the times. This has been true since mankind has recorded war history. It has continued unchanged to this day.

Faced with the accelerated and vigorous development of the Soviet tank force, the German army, which could personally experience even the slightest change in its opponents on the battlefield at any time, naturally could not just sit back and wait for death.

The Soviets were able to produce the KV85 heavy tank by the end of 1941, but the time for the German Tiger tank to enter the war may have been accelerated by one or two times due to Hitler's furious intervention after receiving reports of the new Soviet tanks on the front line. months or more.

Looking further ahead, Malashenko, who may be able to obtain the IS2 heavy tank before the Battle of Kursk, may encounter what kind of German armored monsters he will encounter in this unprecedented armored strangulation. This is exactly the opposite of the double-edged sword principle of the so-called butterfly effect.

Thinking that he might encounter the German King Tiger or even the even more perverted Hunting Tiger in the Battle of Kursk, even Malashenko, who had the Loving Father 2 in hand, could not help but feel a pain in his back at this moment. Chill.

The 1941 Panzer III tank J1 could be put into actual combat one month ahead of schedule. How many months ahead of schedule would the 1942 Tiger tank be? How many months ahead of schedule will the 43-year Panther tank be? By 1944, will the King Tiger tank, the ultimate German heavy tank, be so advanced that I can't even imagine it? Will the super-large rats raised by the Germans lead to a nightmare rat infestation?

He no longer dared to continue thinking about whether those German doomsday blueprint vehicles would turn into reality. Malashenko, who felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, had a slight doubt for the first time whether he was correct in influencing the direction of the war.

Is it a blessing or a curse to change history as a future time traveler and actively accelerate the development of the Soviet tank force with my own hands? In the original historical direction, will the German armored forces, which were already extremely ferocious and have brilliant records, become stronger and even unstoppable?

For Malashenko, who had never thought about it, let alone touched these things, it was like a sudden nightmare. He fell from the top of the ridge where he was complacent because he suddenly realized the truth. There is nothing like the feeling of being at the bottom of despair.

Slowly walking forward, he stretched out his right hand and felt the heart-breaking temperature of the armor on the armor of the No. 3 J1 tank under the ice. He quietly raised his head and looked up at Malashenko, who was looking up at the narrow 50mm tank gun above his head. In my heart, it was like looking in from the black hole of a cannon, and it was pitch black and bottomless.
