Steel Soviet Union

"Put the gun in your hand somewhere else? What does this mean? Comrade Malashenko."

There was obvious confusion in Lieutenant Vasily's eyes. Malashenko, who raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then turned around and shouted at Lavrinenko, who was directing the digging of trenches not far away.

"Hey! Lavry, go to Karamov and ask him to pull over the treasures he collected in a cart!"

As Malashenko's long-standing "internal supervisor," Captain Karamov, commander of the field maintenance battalion, is undoubtedly an avid mechanical enthusiast.

The most common thing he does on a daily basis is to deal with tanks that are full of oil smell and stains. Of course, this does not prevent him from having some other hobbies, such as collecting some rarely seen German standard weapons.

When Lavrinenko commanded a GAZ truck to drive over, Lieutenant Vasily, who felt like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, was almost stunned by the sight in front of him.

The truck compartment was filled with all kinds of German weapons that I had seen or never seen before.

Most of these weapons are automatic weapons. Most of them are German MP38 and MP40 submachine guns, and they are in extremely good condition both in terms of quality and maintenance. The dark gun body shines silver in the sun, making people unable to open their eyes. .

In addition to the common German submachine guns, Captain Karamov’s collection also includes Somi submachine guns and even Czech-made ZB26 light machine guns.

The German army that annexed the Czech Republic stuffed a considerable number of ready-made ZB26 light machine guns into the front-line troops for recharge. It was originally intended to be better than nothing equipment, but it turned out that the response to the use of the front-line troops was actually quite good.

The German soldiers gave high praise to this unique Czech-made light machine gun. Except for the small ammunition capacity, almost all its advantages are inexhaustible. All in all, it is a good gun.

Malashenko, who had many battles with the German army before, more or less captured several Czech ZB26 light machine guns. For this kind of ancestral artifact that was relatively rare on the Soviet-German battlefield but was recognized by the Chinese even though it turned into ashes, There is always an indescribable feeling in Malashenko's heart that cannot be expressed.

Generally speaking, Malashenko will leave the light weapons captured during cleaning on the battlefield to the friendly infantry for disposal. His First Guards Heavy Tank Breakthrough Regiment basically has no need for these things. Even if it is needed, he only picks up a few. Taking a good gun like the Somi, which is suitable for tank soldiers' self-defense and has excellent performance, Malashenko almost doesn't even look at the other small weapons of the German army.

But only the Czech-style ZB26, Malashenko will never let it go to anyone else whenever he sees it.

Seeing that Malashenko liked this thing so much, Captain Karamov also started to think about it. Not only did he personally maintain and handle all the ZB26 light machine guns that he had captured, but he also showed his art to Malashenko from time to time. As a result, the comrade of the group leader was smiling happily while holding the ZB26, but Karamov still didn't fully understand why Malashenko liked this gun so much.

A total of 7 ZB26 light machine guns have been seized so far. This time, under Malashenko's order, they were all pulled out and used to redress the militiamen led by Lieutenant Vasily.

The rest of the common German small arms such as MG34 and MP38/40 were filled up in a carriage. The pile of firearms was enough to make any bloody old man feel excited when he saw it. To a certain extent, it was even more... It can be understood as a carriage full of wives waiting for you to pick them.

The somewhat triumphant Malashenko, with his hands on his hips, was about to give a few leadership speeches to the stunned Lieutenant Vasily beside him. Lavrinenko, who looked somewhat mysterious, quietly stepped forward and tugged on Malashenko's shoulders. Sleeves, indicating to follow him to a place with fewer people to talk.

Lavrinenko pulled his cuffs and walked out to a place more than ten meters away, where he could not be heard. Malashenko, who was a little puzzled, immediately asked questions first.

"What are you doing? It's so mysterious. What happened?"

"Are you planning to give this car to those militiamen?"

Hearing this puzzling sudden question from Lavrinenko, Malashenko, who almost had three question marks popping up on his head, was even more confused.

"Otherwise? Should I ask you to bring this car over to show off?"

Lavrinenko, who secretly thought it was bad, simply stopped covering up after hearing such an answer, and directly confided the somewhat bad news to Malashenko.

"Do you know that these cars are all the treasures Karamov has collected so hard last year? You can imagine what a loss it is to give it away for nothing! I know this may be a bunch of broken guns to us, but Karamov It’s not like you don’t know how your husband treats these treasures of his, now send them all away and I’ll see how you explain it to him.”

He only considered the problem from his own point of view and gave away equipment without considering Karamov's feelings. Malashenko, who was confused on the spot when Lavrinenko asked him, couldn't help but blinked.

"I thought this was a toy he used to kill time when he had nothing to do."

"You think? You think there are so many things! Do you think Hitler and Mussolini engaged in breech loading? Karamov will definitely make trouble for you. If you don't believe it, just take this Let’s take the stuff out and see.”

The field maintenance battalion led by Captain Karamov is of unparalleled significance in the entire 1st Guards Heavy Tank Breakthrough Regiment. If Karamov is really made to get emotional, Malashenko asked himself, this situation seems to be a bit serious. .

"Damn it, are these guys who love to delve into metal machines have some mental problems? The German doctor before was like this, and the guy Karamov is like this too, I really don't understand!"

Scratching his head, he felt that the problem was a bit tricky, but Malashenko, who had already boasted about his awesomeness, felt that it was a bit embarrassing to take back what he just said. In the final analysis, he was pretending too much and too early, so he couldn't come to Taiwan now. .

After struggling for a while, Malashenko finally gritted his teeth and decided to exercise the dictatorship of the regiment leader, and spoke again decisively.

"At this point, we don't care about whether it's a treasure or not. Go tell Karamov that there will be plenty of opportunities to pick up these rags after they are gone. This time I will forcefully requisition these firearms to support the battle!"

"You want me to tell Karamov again?"

"Then you want me to tell you in person?"

Being choked by Malashenko's words, Lavrinenko was speechless for a moment. He put his hands on his hips and felt helpless towards Malashenko. Lavrinenko strode away directly and said "harsh words".

"Every time I'm the one who offends someone, I'm the one who speaks out. You're truly unique as a leader!"
