Chapter 2226: The Way to Control Subordinates

Chapter 2231 The Way to Control Subordinates

In the end, Malashenko finally agreed to the request of the combat engineers with high morale to fight.

If he didn't agree, these Slavic men with violent genes in their bodies would not be able to sit still. If there was really a fool with a head full of muscles leading them, they might dare to block the door of their old leader to ask for a fight. This is no joke.

So it can be said that Malashenko issued such an order and agreed to the combat engineers to fight in order to avoid trouble for himself. There is indeed a small part of such reasons, but there are also prerequisites for letting the combat engineers fight.

Don't let the combat engineers rush too far forward. In addition, only a limited number of combat engineers should be deployed to the battlefield to assist the mechanized infantry in fighting. This is the order details that Malashenko told Kurbalov.

Allowing to participate in the war is one thing, but allowing you to participate in the war and in what way is another matter.

Objectively speaking, Malashenko, who is good at word games, does have a lot of ways to deal with his group of wild and elite Slavic men.

Kurbalov, who received Malashenko's order and understood it, did a good job of executing it. He deployed a small number of combat engineers to follow and protect the armored units to prevent the German infantry from getting close to them.

"This is the order of the division commander, and I am only responsible for conveying it to you. So you know what to do. Don't let the division commander down. He has always had a high evaluation and expectation of you."

Kurbalov, who has learned a lot from Malashenko, has made great progress in the ability to control his subordinates and has learned a lot.

You can't just go out and give orders directly to a super old-timer like Alsim who has 108 fancy ways to play with German sticks in his head. This guy who is quite unruly, full of skills and doesn't look down on ordinary people may not be fooled by you when it comes to the last resort.

As long as he feels the need, he can do things like disobeying orders on the battlefield and taking a group of Slavic men who are also "fierce" to pick up weapons and beat German sticks without thinking or hesitation.

After all, a bad soldier will lead a bad general. What kind of commander will lead what kind of soldiers.

With Alsim, who is a "thorny big brother" with great skills and the ability to make trouble, it is completely imaginable what the combat engineers below can do.

So what to do?

You can't just let this combat engineer leader do whatever he wants with his men, right?

It's simple. Kurbalov has a way, and it's the kind of "cure the disease immediately and strike accurately" way to deal with Artim. Just bring out Malashenko.

This unruly "Siberian barbarian" who has neither joined the party nor has any education respects and is also afraid of one person, and that person is Comrade Lao Ma, the commander of our leader division.

Age is not a problem. Artim really admires and respects Comrade Lao Ma, and completely regards him as the object of his lifelong loyalty.

Artim may dare to disobey the orders of others, but this wild and tough man really doesn't have the courage to disobey the orders of Malashenko.

Why do you say that?

For Kurbalov, Comrade Artim is probably afraid of destroying his image in Malashenko's heart. He has always valued this. Whenever he has the opportunity, he will ask the commander indirectly whether he has mentioned him recently? What is his evaluation of me? Has he praised me?

Kurbalov was indeed asked this question by Artim many times.

Of course, if you answer him, "Yes, the division commander just praised you to me, blah blah (several hundred words omitted here)".

Regardless of whether this happened in fact or not, Artim always laughs like a fool with a brain defect, and he is as happy as a small farmer who knows that the landlord will not collect taxes this year and will give him a few more bags of flour.

But if you say, "Oh, the division commander said that Comrade Artim has some problems recently, so he doesn't want to come down to see the situation of the combat engineer battalion of the brigade."

That's it. Artim will immediately cry and pull a long face, with all kinds of uneasiness and anxiety, thinking hard about what he did wrong to make the division commander dissatisfied and unhappy, and even the elite combat engineer company he brought up did not come to inspect. The anxiety of anxiety and hesitation will always linger around him and linger.

Malashenko said it was fine, Artim's place was sunny.

If Malashenko was unhappy, then Artim's place was cloudy and even lightning storms.

Malashenko knew this situation very clearly, and Kulbarov knew it too.

However, both of them kept silent and let the situation continue. To deal with a special talent who is very capable but difficult to discipline, and ordinary people can't hold it at all, you often have to use some special means to control people. It is indeed true.

If you understand this, you will know why Malashenko allowed the situation to continue and develop despite knowing the situation. This is not difficult to understand.

Of course, if it is placed in the distant future of the 21st century, Malashenko's way of managing people will have a more accurate analytical description in psychological terms, called "PUA".

Well, that's right, the kind of "PUA" often used by scumbag sea kings can also be called "psychological control" in a down-to-earth way, but it is necessary to distinguish between active and passive, and the extra ones have to be tasted carefully by yourself.

In short, this is a form of establishing psychological dependence and seeking recognition to implement the "way of controlling subordinates" in disguise. It can be used for both the opposite sex and subordinates. After all, they are all living people. As long as they are people, they have hearts, feelings, and their own soft hearts and weaknesses. This is always the same.

Kurbalov was not able to pat his chest and say that he could completely control Alsim, but he could indirectly control Alsim by "lifting Malashenko".

After all, as long as Alsim heard that it was Malashenko's personal order, he didn't even have the courage to question whether it was really the order of the division commander and to ask Malashenko about the authenticity.

The reason is also very simple. He is afraid of being scolded, scolded by Malashenko.

I was afraid that if this order was true and I was too suspicious and wrong, Malashenko would look at me with contempt and label me as "disloyal", "a little problematic", "discounted in executing orders", and other negative labels. Then my image in the eyes of the division commander would be completely ruined. What's the point of doing this? It's all bullshit.

So when Alsim led a large group of combat engineers under his command, suppressed his inner desire to fight, restrained himself, and strongly required his men to control their desire to fight, and strictly restrained the troops to serve as close bodyguards for infantry fighting vehicles and tanks.

You know that a certain management method is really very effective.
