USSR 1941

On the first day of training, Shulka and others were completely unprepared.

In fact, there was no need to prepare for the first day, to be exact, no preparation was required for the first three days.

The reason is that military training is not the same thing. You can prepare a set of methods first, and then apply this method to a unit when you catch it.

Shulka believes that we should first understand the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and then formulate training plans according to the characteristics and defects of the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Therefore, of course there will be no training plan. The first three days are to let the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the 82nd Infantry Regiment get to know each other, and at the same time let Shulka and other commanders understand the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and then formulate plans.

A regiment trains a division. Although this division is only the first batch, this task should be said to be very easy.

Shulka's first order was to let each battalion of the 82nd Infantry Regiment, except for the recruit battalion and the cadet battalion, lead a regiment to conduct tactical exercises.

The reason why the recruit battalion and student battalion are excluded is because the recruit battalion itself has little ability and cannot teach others anything. In fact, they are still the object of training.

The cadet battalion didn't take part either, because the cadet battalion's skills were too advanced for ordinary troops... to shoot sniper and mobile mortars, which is more of a special forces role on the battlefield than training regular army.

Of course, if the Ministry of Internal Affairs also formed such a force, it would be fine to have it trained by the cadet battalion, but it has not yet reached that stage.

Shulka thought it would go well, because Saraev was giving orders on the phone the whole time, acting like he was working hard.

Later, Shulka learned that Saraev did not show it to Shulka, but that there were indeed many problems during training. The angry soldiers suppressed it.

But in the end, there are still times when something goes wrong.

The matter still occurred in Sokolov's second battalion.

Sokolov's second battalion corresponds to the 53rd NKVD Infantry Regiment... Before the NKVD troops were reorganized, each division had about four to five regiments, so the regiment number is usually within five times of the division number.

The commander of the 53rd Infantry Regiment was a Colonel Joseph Vitch.

A colonel head of the Ministry of the Interior,

Moreover, he went to a military academy and participated in the Battle of Stalingrad, but now he has to obey the orders of a lieutenant (Note: Sokolov's military rank is only a lieutenant, which is the rank he was promoted after the victory in the Battle of Stalingrad).

This will inevitably make Joseph Vitch feel a little unbalanced, but because it is an order from his superiors, he finally endured it.

But the good times didn't last long. Josephovich heard from somewhere that Sokolov's second battalion was a punishment battalion. He felt that this was a great insult to him, so he got angry in front of Sokolov.

"You bastards!" Josephovich said. "The 53rd is a heroic regiment. We have never deserted in battle..."

"That's because you haven't fought many battles!" Sokolov replied coldly.

"That's right!" Joseph said, "It's true that we haven't fought many battles, but we will never run away on the battlefield, so I refuse you deserters to be our instructors... what you can teach us is run away!"

Sokolov replied with an indifferent attitude: "Whatever you want, it happens that we don't want to teach you either!"

"And your damn regiment commander!" Josephovitch hadn't finished venting his anger: "What are you talking about 'breakout heroes', don't the 'breakout heroes' have soldiers like this..."

Before he finished speaking, Sokolov knocked Joseph to the ground with a punch: "If you look down on 'Breakout Heroes', then show me your heroism and stand up!"

All of a sudden, the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were originally dissatisfied and the 82nd Infantry Regiment who had long been unhappy with the officers and soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs yelled at each other and cheered for their officers... Fighting nations, their first way to solve problems is usually not Report to your superiors and fight instead.

Of course, Joseph Vitch can't lose his face in his subordinates, or you can say that he can't step down. If he suppresses Sokolov with orders and military ranks, or reports to his superiors, then his regiment commander will stand in front of his subordinates in the future. If you can't lift your head up, of course you can't command them to fight.

So Joseph, who got up from the ground, untied his armed belt and punched back...

It's a pity that Sokolov, as the commander of the 2nd Infantry Battalion, let alone the 2nd Infantry Battalion, is a well-known ruthless character in the entire 82nd Infantry Regiment. It is said that Sokolov was a A rogue, his job is to collect gambling debts for the casino.

So compared to his rifle and command, his punching and kicking skills are even better.

How could Joseph Vitch be Sokolov's opponent, and he was beaten black and blue in two or three hits.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two guards of Josephovitch rushed to help, but they were still knocked down by Sokolov's unceremonious punch.

As more and more people joined, the soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs soon formed a group with the officers and soldiers of the 82nd Infantry Regiment.

It wasn't until Sarayev and Shulka rushed out to stop the report that the "mess" was over.

"What's going on?" Sarayev asked Josephovich angrily.

"Comrade Saraev!" Josephovich, with a bruised nose and face, stood up and replied, "I refused to accept the training of the Second Infantry Battalion. They never told us that the Second Infantry Battalion used to be a punishment battalion!"

Saraev couldn't help but glanced at Shulka in surprise.

This is indeed a bit outrageous. Although the troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have poor experience and quality, they have strict requirements for political stance and ideological advancement, so they are very heroic on the battlefield. This is what the Ministry of Internal Affairs has always been proud of.

But now, they have to accept the training of a punishment battalion composed of deserters? !

Shulka didn't deny it, he just replied: "Yes, but you also said it was 'once'!"

"'Ever' won't work either!" Josephovitch replied: "I won't let these cowards become our instructors, and I don't think my soldiers will either!"

The soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs responded angrily and loudly, as if they wanted to force Shulka to change.

Even Saraev found it inappropriate, saying: "Comrade Shulka, don't you still have a fifth infantry battalion (cadet battalion)?"

"I won't change!" Shulka replied lightly: "Comrade Saraev, and this..."

"Joseph Vitch!" Joseph Vitch called himself.

"Comrade Josephovich!" Shulka said, "I think you need to be clear about one thing, we don't care! It will not do any good for the 82nd Infantry Regiment to teach you, and you ... it is a question of whether you can save your life! "

After it was over, Shulka said with a disdainful smile: "Of course, I believe you are not afraid of death!"
