Chapter 597: School
Its core is the sniper school located at the Lazur Chemical Factory in the northern industrial zone of Stalingrad, and then select soldiers with good marksmanship from the army to learn, and Vasily will serve as the chief instructor and teach him personally.
There was a bit of twists and turns, because the head of the 1047th regiment was unwilling to let people go.
The major named Ostrov called the headquarters of the 82nd Infantry Regiment and yelled at Major Mikhailevich: "That's my soldier, Comrade Mikhailvich, tell me Just borrowed, but now he is assigned to sniper school... Do you know what this means to us? The 1047th regiment still has a sniper unit waiting for him to command!"
In fact, not only that, Vasily is already quite famous at this time, and his existence can also bring unexpected morale to the troops, so it will also bring more victories to the troops.
Therefore, soldiers like Vasily are very popular, and all units are rushing to get them. If it weren't for the 82nd Infantry Regiment's connection with the Army Command and Vasily would prefer to fight in the 82nd Infantry Regiment, Mikhail Vich Not at all.
Mikhailvich directly handed the phone to Shulka and said, "I'm looking for you!"
"What?" Shuerka, who didn't know the situation, took the call.
Then he realized that he had been fooled after hearing Major Ostrov's complaint, and couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Mikhailvich.
Major Mikhailvich pretended nothing happened, turned his head and pretended to call Andrianka, who was sorting out the documents: "Oh, I heard that another 60 amphibious landing ships were delivered today? Why is there less than yesterday?"
"They were bombed by the Germans, Major!" Andrianka replied puzzledly: "I have already reported it to you!"
"Oh, is there? I forgot!" Mikhailvich was a little embarrassed: "Give me the documents, I want to see the damage situation!"
"Yes, Comrade Major!"
…
Shuerka shook his head helplessly, and then turned his attention to the microphone.
"Vassily is an excellent fighter!" Major Ostrov continued to talk on the microphone: "Soldiers should stay on the battlefield, not some school..."
"Comrade Ostrov!" Shulka said: "Vassily can teach his skills to more people, and then let more people play a role on the battlefield!"
"I agree with this, but not now!" Major Ostrov said: "Now is the critical moment of the battle. We need soldiers to fight on the battlefield. Learning can wait until after the battle is won!"
"The battlefield is the school, Comrade Ostrov!" Shulka replied: "At the same time the school is the battlefield!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Although this school is located in the Lazul Chemical Plant, it will never be limited to the Lazul Chemical Plant!" Shulka explained: "They will receive some basic training in the school, and they will be put into actual combat in a few days. !"
"So, what's the difference?" Ostrov asked back: "I mean only a few days of training, do you expect to be able to transform those fighters into snipers like Vasily?"
"No, of course not!" Shulka replied: "Strictly speaking, actual combat is part of their training!"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and Ostrov obviously understood the meaning of Shulka's words.
In the past training, or any military school courses, without exception, they created an atmosphere of actual combat for training.
But the sniper school Shulka set up at the Lazur Chemical Plant...it doesn't have a training ground at all, and it doesn't need a training ground, let alone create any actual combat atmosphere.
Because there are battlefields everywhere around Stalingrad, each battlefield can be a training ground, an excellent training ground, and it can be guaranteed that the situation of each training ground or even the same training ground is different in different time periods.
"So, we don't have the problem of conflict between learning and actual combat, Comrade Ostrov!" Shulka continued: "They have been in actual combat in the near future, and may even cooperate with your regiment to perform tasks. Of course, This is not something I can decide, they are under the unified command of the Army Command!"
In fact, the unified command of the Army Group Command is just an excuse. The Army Group Command transferred the command to the 82nd Infantry Regiment in a hand... This is actually to deal with the voice of dissatisfaction with Major Ostrov.
"Also!" Shulka added: "I think you should ask Comrade Vasily himself for his opinion. I already asked him two hours ago, and he is very willing to carry out this mission and is looking forward to it!"
Shuerka did not lie. When Shurka told Vasily about this idea, Vasily agreed without thinking about it.
"Maybe you don't believe it, Comrade Shulka!" Vasily said: "I have similar thoughts, but at the same time I am worried that the military emergency does not have the conditions to open this school!"
"The military situation is urgent at any time!" Shulka replied: "Maybe opening a school and temporarily transferring the backbone will make the situation more severe temporarily, but it is certain that as time goes by, the situation will get better and better, and this is what we need! "
"Yes!" Vasily agreed.
So Ostrov had nothing to say.
The Army Command agreed, and Vasily himself had no objection, and the regiment commander Ostrov couldn't let him go if he wanted to.
In addition to the sniper school, Shulka also formed a mortar school, and the instructor was a second lieutenant named Vavilovich.
Vavilovic was an infantryman, hadn't been an artilleryman for a day, he didn't even know he could use a mortar... In one battle, a shell exploded in front of the trench and knocked his rifle away, and he could only Pick up a shovel mortar as a weapon.
Unexpectedly, the shovel-style mortar with extremely poor precision was in his hands, but it was as if it was alive.
At first, Vavilovic thought it was a coincidence, but after using it for a while, he found that he just had this ability.
When Shulka asked about it, he replied: "I don't know what it is, Captain. But whenever I raise the mortar to keep its barrel at an angle, my mind naturally goes It will show its approximate ballistic trajectory and the landing point of the shell after it is fired!"
After a pause, Vavilovic added: "I may not be up to the task, because I don't know how to teach others. In fact, I don't know anything..."
"No, you are up to the task!" Shulka said, "Because that's what they have to learn!"
