Chapter 92: drive

??Chapter 92 Driving

??Introducing a book by a friend: The Great Secret Service Agent of the Republic of China, written by Wang Nanci.

?? Recently, spy wars are very popular, and one day soldiers will open a book...

??********

After the formation is completed, the training will be carried out immediately... In fact, there is no time or condition for more training. You know, the organization will soon become a mess.

You don’t even need to fight. If you don’t know each other, just marching may cause similar chaos... If the car breaks down or there is a traffic jam, wait for the trouble to be resolved and the traffic will clear up. Worse, it’s all unfamiliar faces , Which army is your own company?

??So this training is to perform some routine actions under the command of the superior, such as getting on and off the car, dispersing according to the battle formation, and so on.

?? If there is anything else, it is that each platoon arranges a few soldiers to learn to drive a car from the driver.

?? On the one hand, if the convoy travels long distances, several people must take turns to drive. It is impossible for the driver to drive from the beginning to the end without eating, drinking or sleeping.

?? On the other hand, in case the driver is wounded or killed in combat, someone else is driving the car.

??The problem is that there are only a few days, so I can only learn a little bit.

?? Shulka is honored to be one of them... He has been driving in Hyundai for a few years, only with automatic transmission.

??Shuerka originally thought that this was not a big problem, because the manual transmission was also used when taking the driver's license test, and it only needed a process of adaptation.

??But when he really got into this GAZ car, he found that it was not the case at all:

?? First of all, this thing doesn’t have any driving experience at all, but it seems understandable. The army advocates running Dora, and no one will consider the driver’s feelings.

?? Then it is difficult to start and shift gears. You have to hold the "Z"-shaped starter lever to the car to start it manually like shaking a tractor. Even turning the steering wheel is manual work (without power steering).

What's more exaggerated is that the rearview mirror is just a decoration, and you can't see anything behind it at all. After the car is turned on, the screws and windows in the car are all rattling, as if they are about to fall apart. It's perfectly normal for something to fall out once in a while.

??If this car is put in a modern car, it will be a road killer.

?? Shulka, who has several years of driving experience, is like this, let alone those soldiers who have just learned to drive.

??So it is not difficult to imagine the dangers faced by the Soviet army in battle. The lives of a whole car were handed over to a novice who had just learned to drive. What was even worse was that Soviet soldiers still thought these were normal.

"Don't worry, Comrade Sergeant!" The thief said to Shulka in the rear compartment while driving the car crookedly: "Anyway, on the road full of mud and puddles, its speed is like a snail , do we need to worry about the snail hitting something?"

?? This seems to make sense, even the old driver can only drive thirty or forty yards on the road in the rain in the Soviet Union.

?? "Where else can we fall?" the veteran said: "The most we can do is roll to the side of the road and turn over, push it straight and keep driving!"

?? This seems to be true. Ninety-five percent of Ukraine is a plain, and as far as the eye can see, it is empty. Even if the car deviates from the road, there will be no major problems.

?? "It's no big deal!" said the actor. "What could be more dangerous than German bullets and shells?"

?? This is indeed true. Compared with the battlefield, the traffic danger of driving is really nothing to worry about.

?? "Boys!" The driver finally concluded: "Take out your courage to fight against the enemy on the battlefield, and you will soon find that driving is as easy as driving a woman!"

??The fighters in the carriage "coaxed" and laughed.

??The driver was assigned along with the car. He was in his forties and his name was Alekvich. The soldiers usually called him Uncle Alek.

??After listening to what Uncle Alek said, Shulka no longer struggled. After all, Uncle Alek has more say in the cars of this era... Maybe this is also the style of driving in the Soviet Union.

??But Shulka had just let go of his hanging heart, when he saw Uncle Alek take out a bottle of vodka from under the driver's seat, opened the lid and sniffed it, and after admiring, he raised his head and took a few sips as if no one else was there. Then hand the bottle to the thief who is driving.

?? "Take a few bites, boy!" said Uncle Alek, "Trust me, this will make you learn faster!"

??Shuerka has black lines on his face: *%@&*?

??These are just small problems, the big problem is the tank.

?? Shulka attended a meeting with Gavrilov on the third day.

?? This meeting was convened by Admiral Kirponos... As I said before, the 9th Mechanized Army was reorganized by the admiral himself.

?? "Comrade Shulka!" After a few minutes of opening remarks, General Kirponos called Shulka to the front.

?? "Tell me what you think!" Admiral Kirponos handed the baton to Shulka.

?? This made the people in the meeting look sideways. They didn't understand how General Kirponos asked a staff sergeant to preside over the meeting.

"Sir!" Shulka stood up and saluted them first, and then pointed to the tank model on the sand table with his baton and said, "We have always used tanks as equipment attached to infantry to cooperate with infantry in combat. Even in the tank division, we use the tanks as a tool to cover the infantry's attack. Now, we have to reverse their primary and secondary relations, that is, to concentrate the tanks to attack the enemy, and the infantry is to cooperate with the tanks to fight!"

?? These words immediately caused a commotion in the conference room.

?? "This has been proven to be a wrong tactic, Sergeant!" The speaker was Major General Tolicka, commander of the 9th Army.

??Shuerka already knew their relevant information generously before this.

?? "No, Comrade General!" Shulka said: "On the contrary, it has been proven to be the correct tactic! Because this is the tactic used by the Germans!"

?? "You mean we want to learn from those invaders?" Major General Tolicka looked at Shure angrily.

?? "General!" Shulka replied firmly: "The Germans used rifles and machine guns. If we can't be the same as those invaders, should we use bayonets to fight them instead?"

?? Major General Toliczka was speechless.

"That's right!" Admiral Kirponos interrupted. "I think I should say a few words: Comrade Major General, and everyone here, I hope you understand a little bit... This is war, understand? This It is war! War means that as long as it is the correct tactics, we should not distinguish between the enemy and us, because it can defend our motherland and people from the invaders!"
