Chapter 377 Stephen

There is no need for Shulka to worry about the training of another tank unit. This is the benefit of another command system. The command system has been established and even has some actual combat experience. If it is not the problem of tanks needing to adapt and train, soldiers Once replenished, you can go to the battlefield.

What makes Shulka and others interesting is that because of the handover of British and American tanks, the British and American advisory groups were also sent to Rzhev. Stephen of the 1st Brigade joke.

Colonel Stephen originally did not want to contact the 1st Guards Tank Brigade.

Needless to say, the reason is that the results of the 1st Guards Tank Brigade are completely different from what he expected, which almost proves that the set taught by Colonel Stephen is not applicable.

Therefore, Colonel Stephen planned to go directly to the camp of the 5th Guards Tank Brigade after arriving in Rzhev... The 5th Guards Tank Brigade is a newly formed armored unit to receive British and American tanks. At this time, it is also a kind of preparation for them to be familiar with British and American tanks.

But the situation made it impossible for Colonel Stephen to escape this "robbery".

Just before Colonel Stephen left for Rzhev, he received a telegram from London:

"I heard that they used the 'Matilda' tank to defeat the Germans a few times? You should take this opportunity to learn about tactics, as well as their new equipment, the individual anti-tank weapon!"

After receiving this telegram, Stephen was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.

In fact, at this time, Britain was an ally of the Soviet Union, and the two countries had common interests. As long as the British side opened their mouths, they could obtain such information from formal channels.

The problem is that at this time, the United Kingdom regards itself as the "world's most powerful country". From a national perspective, the tanks they produced were beaten by the Germans on the African battlefield, but the Soviets used the same tanks to defeat the same tanks. A powerful enemy, if the British government asks about tactics... it is obviously unacceptable in terms of face.

Therefore, they naturally thought of the advisory group sent to the Soviet Union.

This idea is of course very good, as long as the advisory group communicates with the Soviet soldiers normally through training, it will be easy to get this information...Of course they don't know that Colonel Stephen doesn't want to do this.

Colonel Stephen even called back and made excuses to refuse.

"I don't think it's necessary!" Stephen said, "I understand the battle, and they won more because the Germans were unprepared for the Soviet winter.

To put it simply, they were already on the verge of collapse, and the 1st Guards Tank Brigade's victory was just a matter of timing, and it had nothing to do with the tactics they used! "

But of course the British side will not easily believe what Stephen said.

"But the information we have learned is not the case!" London replied with stern words: "We heard that the 1st Guards Tank Brigade was just the lever that levered the collapse of the German army, and they used very few casualties in Tver. Defeat a German armored division! In any case, you should find out these things and give us a detailed report!"

The United Kingdom is a veteran espionage country. Although they have declined at this time, the United Kingdom is still in the leading position in the world in terms of intelligence. This information is simply a piece of cake for them.

In desperation, Colonel Stephen could only set off with his advisory group, and the first stop was to go to the 1st Guards Tank Brigade.

Sure enough, when Stephen and others got off the train, there were Soviet soldiers whistling at Colonel Stephen and his party.

"Colonel!" the Soviet soldier shouted: "Are you here to teach us how to use a tank?"

"Thanks to you! Under your training, we successfully defeated the Germans!"

"I'm just very sorry! We didn't use your tactics!"

Then the Soviet soldiers burst into laughter.

Although Colonel Stephen couldn't understand these words, and the translator couldn't translate them, he could still feel the mockery.

A group of people walked into the headquarters of the 1st Guards Tank Brigade in desperation. Katukov was discussing with Shulka and others how to cooperate with the T34 in combat. When he saw Colonel Stephen, he asked in surprise: " Colonel, the camp of the 5th Guards Tank Brigade is about five miles east of us!"

"Yes, I know, Colonel!" Stephen replied: "But you know, if we need to better train new troops, we need to know more about how our tanks are used on the battlefield!"

"Don't you think they are the same everywhere?" Lieutenant Colonel Zahakovic smiled and sarcastically said: "I seem to have heard you say that no matter where you fight, you should use your set of tactics!"

The officers in the headquarters couldn't help laughing.

Katukov raised his head towards Shulka and said, "I think Captain Shulka has more say in this aspect, you can go to him to find out!"

Katukov obviously didn't want to waste too much time with Stephen, so he kicked him to Shulka like a football.

Stephen looked at Shulka, feeling that he had been greatly insulted, but there was nothing he could do, because this was a task entrusted to him by London, so he could only blushed and said to Shulka: "Comrade Captain , I hope you can cooperate with us, after all... this will be of great help to the 5th Guards Tank Brigade, and we can cooperate better!"

"Of course, Colonel!" Shulka replied in English and took Stephen out of the headquarters, saying: "However, if you only know from me, I don't think it is far from enough, because fighting the enemy does not depend entirely on Theory or just a few big words is fine, I think it should be learned from training. Our army is training recruits, you can learn more from them what you want to know. I will arrange all this! "

"Thank you very much, Comrade Shulka!" Stephen looked at Shulka in surprise: "I thought..."

"Do you think I will mock you or make things difficult for you?" Shulka replied: "No, Colonel! It is hard enough for us to face the enemy and face death on the battlefield. I don't want to fight openly and secretly with allies. You Say yes?"

"Yes, of course!" Stephen shook Shulka's hand gratefully.

In fact, this is only one of the reasons. Shulka hopes that the bazooka can be equipped with the British army earlier... If the British hold back more German troops in the African battlefield, it will obviously be good for the Soviet Union.
