  Supplent to Chapter 286

   "Major!" Shulka replied: "The problem is that so soldiers are irreplaceable!"

"for example?"

"For example, chanized infantry!" Shulka said: "The 333rd Regint, they have rich combat experience, and they have been trained with infantry and tanks. On the battlefield, they are the eyes of the tank and the right arm of the tank. Direction, cover, and even dragging the tank out of the mud! They knew when to fire flares to give the tank vision, and which angles to avoid when charging so they wouldn't block the tank's machine gun holes..."

"If the infantry of the 333rd regint suffers heavy casualties due to the problem of the car, it almost ans that the T34 has beco blind, deaf, and crippled! That kind of ergency can't replace the 333rd regint, unless they have also been trained by Butan coordination!"

After a pause, Shulka continued: "And if the 333rd regint fails to be replenished in ti, the consequence is that we may lose a key battle, which may cause a series of avalanche-like negative effects! "

  Major Yefimshi thought for a while, then nodded and said: "I understand, Comrade Shulka, what you an to say... Half-track armored vehicles are actually a guarantee of the combat effectiveness of tank troops?!"

   "You can say that!" Shulka replied: "I think it is not only a guarantee for the combat effectiveness of tank troops, but also a supplent."

"Replenish?"

   "Yes, supplent!" Shulka replied: "We have a battle in Volokolamsk, which is said to be an attack jointly organized by the 27th Tank Brigade and the 44th Cavalry Division!"

   "The battle to attack Kozwo Village!" Yefimshi said. As a staff officer of the Western Army, he certainly still rembers this fiasco.

"Yes, they launched an attack on our right flank at that ti!" Shulka said: "If I rember correctly, the strategy of this attack was to use the mobility of tanks and cavalry to quickly rush through an open field into the enemy's line of defense! "

   "Yes!" Major Yefimshi nodded.

"Tanks and cavalry can reach the sa speed!" Shulka said: "From this point of view, there is no problem, and after the cavalry dismounts, it becos infantry, which can coordinate with tanks. And if infantry and tanks attack in coordination Otherwise, the tanks would have to slow down so that the infantry could keep up, so they would be easily overwheld by enemy fire, and eventually they would not be able to break through the enemy lines through that open space!"

"Yes!"

   "But we failed in the end!" Shulka continued: "The problem is not coordination or speed, but the fact that the cavalry is too vulnerable to enemy artillery fire and machine guns!"

   Major Yefimxi nodded thoughtfully: "The cavalry is difficult to control, it is difficult to shoot on a running horse, and the target is too big...Whether the horse is injured or the rider is injured, it will lead to tragedy!"

"Yes!" Shulka replied: "But if it is a half-track armored vehicle, it is different. It has the sa speed as cavalry and can keep up with tanks. Infantry can hide behind armor to avoid bullets and shrapnel. Mount the machine gun or artillery on the front of the vehicle, and shoot as you go. If necessary, put down these infantryn...they can imdiately provide cover for the tank!"

"That's right!" Major Yefimshi nodded again and again at these words: "Yes, Comrade Shulka, this half-track armored vehicle is in a sense a supplent to tanks. Tanks work together to break through enemy lines, it is a piece of equipnt that can be used to break through enemy lines, not just a ans of transport!"

   "Yes!" Shulka breathed a sigh of relief, finally soone realized the importance of half-track armored vehicles.

Of course, Hyundai should be an armored vehicle with all-round protection for this role. However, armored vehicles are urgently needed to fill the gap at this ti. It is more suitable for half-track armored vehicles that are easy to produce, easy to modify, and have low requirents for personnel training... just like before As I said, the Soviet Union originally had half-track vehicles, so all that needs to be done is to make so modifications on the original basis and add so armor.

   "Have you written everything down?" Major Yefimshi asked the assistant.

   "Yes, write it all down, Comrade Major!" The assistant replied.

  Major Yefimxi looked around at the other people in the eting room, and asked, "Does anyone have objections to this?"

  Sisoy and others couldn't help looking at each other, only Kalashnikov secretly raised his thumb to Shulka... Many people present were Kalashnikov's superiors, so he didn't dare to show too much.

  Others, they thought that this was a war without any suspense, and they would win it for sure. No one would think that this half-track armored vehicle could play any role on the battlefield, and of course it couldn't pass.

but now…

  Shuerka said so, especially with an actual battle to explain, Shuerka quickly took control of the situation and took the initiative.

  Of course, Shulka cannot be said to have won at this ti.

   The research and developnt of a piece of equipnt is no small task, especially when the resources and production capacity of the Soviet Union are tight.

  It ultimately requires in-depth discussions between the military and scientific researchers before making a decision.

   But the problem is... Many people present were convinced by Shulka like Major Yefimshi, and they still had to take it orally.

  This also includes Sissoy.

   "No, we have no objection!" Sisoy said: "In fact, I think Comrade Shulka is right that we need this equipnt, our previous thinking was wrong, and it was wrong!"

"Yes!" The old man also sighed and nodded towards Shulka, and said, "Please forgive our ignorance, Comrade Shulka... Maybe, as you said, we who stay in the laboratory can't see it Do not understand the real needs of the battlefield!"

   "I think it has sothing to do with people!" Major Yefimshi said: "We have millions of people fighting the enemy on the front line, but Comrade Shulka is the only one who sees this problem!"

  People in the conference room nodded in agreent.

   This made Shulka a little embarrassed. He is actually not a genius, but these things can be said to be common sense in modern tis.

   "Then..." Major Yefimshi looked at Shulka and said, "This discussion can be over, and we should return..."

   "Wait, Comrade Major!" said the old man, "Can I speak to Comrade Shulka?"

   "Of course!" replied the major.

   "Comrade Shulka!" The old man stepped forward and shook hands with Shulka: "My na is Grigory Spakin, nice to et you!"
