BXBX NOVEL Chapter 89: Tukhachevski
"Why?" Shulka asked.
"You know why!" Major Gavrilov replied.
Then he looked around and left. Before leaving, he added: "Forget this, don't tell anyone!"
"Yes, Major!" Shulka replied.
But the answer was this, and Shulka couldn't hold back in the end.
While squatting next to the car to eat, Shulka looked at the tanks located between the bunkers more than a hundred meters away, pretending to be casual and whispered to the actor: "Okunev, I wonder why they didn't concentrate the tanks. Get up and use!"
The actor was stunned for a moment, stopped biting the bread, and then replied: "It seems that you haven't recovered yet, Shulka, I thought you were back to normal!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Shulka said.
"Okay!" the actor replied: "Because Tukhachevsky wanted to do it, Shulka, remember him?"
Shuerka couldn't help but let out an "oh".
Of course he knew Tukhachevsky. He was one of the first five marshals of the Soviet Union. He was a very talented military strategist and was known as "Soviet Napoleon".
His contributions, such as suggesting the formation of mechanized troops, air force, airborne troops, etc., also proposed the development of T34 tanks, military jet engines, etc.
But what impressed Shulka the most is that Tukhachevsky proposed the military theory of concentrating the use of tanks and joining the air force, infantry, airborne troops and other arms... These theories were later proved by the German army is exactly right.
Shulka believes that if the Soviet army is organized according to Tukhachevsky's ideas, then it will not be the German army but the Soviet army that is galloping across the earth.
The problem is that...Heydrich, who was the head of the German "security police" at the time, used a countermeasure at this time. He disguised a series of evidence of Tukhachevsky's "treason" and intentionally leaked it to the Soviet Union.
It goes without saying that Tukhachevsky was arrested and executed for "treason" along with seven generals. (Note: rehabilitated in 1956)
So the military theory put forward by the traitor Tukhachevsky, of course, cannot continue to be used, because it is "a theory with ulterior motives and an attempt to subvert the Soviet army."
So of course Shulka cannot repeat this theory.
"Fuck it!" Shulka couldn't help cursing. At this time, he felt as if he was tied hands and feet to fight the Germans, and the people who tied him were none other than the Soviets.
"Is there a problem, Comrade Sergeant?" A pair of boots appeared in front of Shulka.
Shulka looked up and saw Olga, the deputy instructor.
"No, no problem, Comrade Deputy Instructor!" Shulka stood up.
"Very good!" Olga nodded: "If there is any situation or idea, I hope you can report to me in time, understand?"
"Yes, Comrade Deputy Instructor!" Shulka replied jerky.
Why does he feel that he and the deputy instructor are not allies on the same front, but enemies who are fighting each other and fighting wits and courage.
Although Major Gavrilov repeatedly urged, Shulka still couldn't help but bring it up in front of General Kirponos.
"Speak directly if you have anything to say, Comrade Sergeant!" General Kirponos ignored Major Gavrilov's amicus, because Shulka had successfully aroused his curiosity.
"That's right, Comrade General!" Shulka thought for a while, and said, "I think bunkers plus the 'camouflage' tactics are enough for us to resist the Germans' attack, so... do we still need to Deploying tanks between bunkers to be bombed by the Germans?"
Admiral Kirponos nodded in agreement. Deploying tanks on the defensive circle is indeed a bit superfluous.
What's more, the focus at this time is not the defense in front, but the outflanking of the enemy's Central Army Group in the rear.
"So, you think we should bring the tanks back?" Admiral Kirponos asked.
"Yes!" Shulka replied.
"Then what are you going to do with these tanks?" Admiral Kirponos asked.
Shulka hesitated for a moment, then replied: "I think they should be gathered together to form one army, Comrade General! An independent army!"
Admiral Kirponos couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and then he understood why Major Gavrilov was trying to stop Shulka.
Major Gavrilov sighed, looking helpless.
Admiral Kirponos looked at Major Gavrilov, then at Shulka, and after a long silence, he asked Shulka: "Do you have any plans? Bring them back, but Not for hiding in a bunker as a toy or for viewing!"
"Of course, Comrade General!" Shulka replied.
Admiral Kirponos is a smart guy, there is no way he would have pulled the tanks back just to protect them and risked "making a mistake" by gathering the tanks together to form a force.
Shulka knew this, so of course he also prepared a plan.
Admiral Kirponos looked around, winked, and led Major Gavrilov and Shulka to a small room next to him.
That was the lounge of Admiral Kirponos. The furnishings inside were very simple, except for a bed, a table and a lamp on the table.
Of course, this is just a superficial phenomenon.
Admiral Kirponos opened the drawer, took out a bottle of vodka from the drawer, raised his hand, and said, "I'll hide here and have a few sips occasionally!"
Major Gavrilov laughed.
This time, they didn't even want the wine glass. Admiral Kirponos took a few sips of the wine bottle and handed it to Major Gavrilov.
"Speak, Comrade Sergeant!" General Kirponos said to Shulka: "Here you can speak freely, if Major Gavrilov will not inform!"
Major Gavrilov, who was drinking from a wine bottle, almost choked.
"I need a map, Comrade General!" Shulka said.
Of course, maps are indispensable in the lounge. Admiral Kirponos took one out of the drawer and spread it out on the table.
Shulka pointed to the map and said: "The Kyiv defense line is more than 50 kilometers away from Kyiv, and the Germans will push the front line to the Dnieper River and the Kyiv defense line, which will form a protrusion outside the Kyiv defense line!"
"What's the use of this protrusion?" Admiral Kirponos asked.
"If we organize an armored force!" Shulka said, drawing an arc on the map from the protrusion to the south...
Admiral Kirponos and Major Gavrilov couldn't help being stunned.
