Chapter 2980 This Guy Actually Showed Off His Wife
"I heard that you tortured those Americans so much that you even made them do push-ups in the street?"
"Ah, yes, there is such a thing. These bastards pointed guns at me in the street. It was enough to give them face by not bringing this matter to Barton, so I did two push-ups as a punishment, which was just a good exercise. Their physical strength can also be regarded as a friendly exchange between the two armies.”
"It's really yours."
The political commissar who was curious about what happened had nothing to say except "admiration" after listening to Malashenko's account.
You, a majestic lieutenant general, frightened a small major and a group of big soldiers. I don't know whether to say that our comrade commander has "elegant interests" or that this way of having fun is indeed a bit unexpected. Anticipate.
In short, this matter is an inconspicuous episode, even if it passes like this, after all, there are still big things to do next today.
I heard that Major General Jack Morrison, an old acquaintance and former student, is now not only the commander of the 4th Armored Division, but also the most popular among the American generals who followed Patton to Berlin.
Even if he is Patton's deputy and the number two person in the top brass of the U.S. military stationed in Berlin, that is not impossible. After all, that is the actual situation.
Sitting on a chair, Comrade Comrade Political Commissar used his time away to use his means and connections to collect this summary of information, and understood the latest information about Jack Morrison recorded on it. Malashenko I can't help but sigh at the magic of time.
To be honest, I did not expect that this Jack would actually be a "gold". After such an unknown figure in the existing history, he met me by chance, and the trajectory of his life changed.
Taking advantage of the great opportunity for soldiers during the war years, he was promoted faster than himself, like a rocket sitting on his butt, and he reached the position of major general and division commander in three strokes, five divided by two.
If we take into account that the military rank system of the US military is slightly different, and there is a "Brigadier General" rank in front of the major general, then strictly speaking, Jack is now on the same rank as himself.
Both brothers carry two generals on their shoulders. Who will follow whom, right?
Yao thought about how her relationship with Jack, a boy who had similar personalities and could pee in a pot, was quite good. Now it seems that it is a successful investment of "buying potential stocks in advance". What you get is the reward of good personal relationships.
It's just that even Malashenko himself didn't expect that this would be an investment, and he didn't expect that this boy Jack would rise to such a high level in the future and become the driving force for those members of Congress to jump up and down. Otherwise, it would just be like saying "good fortune plays tricks on people".
However, this can be regarded as a good thing. After all, it is good for the top US military officials in Berlin to have someone they can talk to.
As for the long-term future, Malashenko’s future memory really cannot provide any reference or help. After all, there is no such person on the celebrity list in history. Now, we can only “talk about the future later.” Well, dealing with the current situation first is the top priority.
"Has there been any reply from Jack? Is he unable to come over tonight?"
Facing the question raised by Malashenko after scanning the intelligence, the political commissar raised his hand and pulled out a telegram from a pile of documents on the table, and then handed it to Malashenko.
"I drafted a call to the US military right after you left. Not long after they arrived, the headquarters in Berlin, which had just been called up, was still busy dealing with many things."
"Well, so you are too busy to take care of the soldiers who are playing hooligans on the street? Or are these people the only ones who come to Berlin?"
"Then you probably have to ask your good student face to face. Ask him how he managed to lead such a group of ruffians. Maybe he will blame you as a teacher for not teaching well enough? Haha. , who knows.”
"Pfft hahahaha——"
Malashenko, who was laughed at, took a sip of water to calm down his shock. After putting down the cup, he half-jokingly replied to the political commissar.
"Then he can't blame me. I only taught him how to use a tank, but I didn't teach him how to lead troops."
"But if he wants to learn, that's not impossible, but he must first pay the tuition to the Soviet Red Army."
Last time, in order to learn from Malashenko's apprenticeship, the Yankees and the British fought hard. Even the top B29 engine at the time was stolen by the Russians. Listen to the British. It was said that some aircraft engines from Rolls-Royce were also handed over.
It's just that it's not for large aircraft, but for smaller fighter jets.
As for the specific model, Malashenko, who only attends classes and does not charge tuition, doesn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, it is not some outdated junk.
After all, the last business deal was a request made by the British and Americans on their own initiative, and being ripped off by raising the price was indeed in line with "Slavic economics."
Judging from what happened last time, according to what Malashenko said, if the British and Americans want to come to do homework and study again, I guess "Teacher Malashenko" will have to pay the tuition. Tsk~ The designation is more ruthless than last time. There are no repeat customer discounts in "Slavic Economics".
discount? What a great deal!
If you dare to turn around and come back, I will kill you a second time. This is in line with the "Slavic economics" in Malashenko's perception.
The jokes were over, and Malashenko got back to the point. He then learned from the political commissar that the US military headquarters in Berlin quickly replied after receiving the telegram. In the name of Major General Jack Morrison, the commander of the 4th Armored Division, they first expressed sincere gratitude to the Red Army for hosting a banquet for friendly forces.
Then came the details of the telegram that the political commissar handed to Malashenko.
The rest of the content was nothing special, just thanking his mentor for his friendship and looking forward to meeting General Malashenko again.
It can be said that Comrade Ma, who has been in a high position for a long time, is now completely immune to these words and has almost no special reaction.
What really made Malashenko exclaimed "Fuck, there is such a thing" was that Jack actually said in the telegram that he would come to the dinner with his wife and look forward to introducing the famous and meritorious General Malashenko to his wife.
To put it nicely, it is a polite and polite remark. To put it bluntly, it is a criticism of "deliberately showing off his wife".
I, Malashenko, am still single. You know that your master is not married, but I brought my wife here to show off deliberately, right?
Damn it! Isn't it too much? Openly showing off the wife to the "single otaku" is simply too much!
Seeing that the division commander, no, now it should be the army commander, who claims to be a "single otaku", is unhappy.
Comrade Political Commissar, who has been with Malashenko day and night and fought side by side for a long time, and knows his partner inside and out very thoroughly, then quietly spoke.
"Why? Is it because he brought his wife here?"
"Yeah"
Malashenko responded in a deep voice, his face was gloomy, but it was not directed at Comrade Political Commissar. He blurted out words of complaint immediately.
"Damn it! Soldiers don't go to war, but walk around Berlin with women, they deserve to be killed!"
This is actually what Comrade Lao Ma thought in his heart, but it's another matter to say it out loud, that is, the meaning is actually the same.
"This is an official banquet, okay, even if I admit that it has some personal meaning, but the invitation is issued in the name of the leader's army. As a result, Jack brought his wife here, what for? I'm not having a private party here, just eating and chatting."
"The smell of gunpowder in Berlin hasn't dissipated yet. If you ask me, why are these Americans so virtuous? The division commander walks around Berlin with a woman, and the soldiers below are behaving like hooligans on the street. Can capitalism still be a little serious in fighting wars?"
Comrade Lao Ma's complaints were well-organized, but Comrade Political Commissar vaguely saw what Malashenko was thinking.
It's just that he didn't say it directly to his face, but took a detour and gave Malashenko advice in a roundabout way.
"Since their cards have been played, no matter what their purpose is, we will just play an equal card in return."
"How about this, you go and call Anya and bring her along. Madam versus madam, general versus general, this is a fair game with equal strength, and you won't be passive in some aspects at that time."
"What? Call Anya? This..."
To be honest, if Comrade Political Commissar hadn't mentioned this, Malashenko would hardly have thought of such a "response method".
But in reality, Anya is indeed by his side and can be called at any time. It's nothing to bring Anya's identity to the venue openly. The head nurse who has made many contributions is both decent and impeccable.
As Comrade Political Commissar said, "Madam versus Madam, General versus General" is indeed a very good hand of cards, which is the same as the military rule that "when you don't know how to counter a certain weapon of the enemy, imitate it, and the result will never be too bad."
But Malashenko's focus is not here. What Malashenko cares about is whether this identity is appropriate for his private affairs once it is publicly confirmed.
"Are you thinking about Natalia?"
"Yes, I am thinking about this."
Comrade Political Commissar really knows Malashenko thoroughly, just like an old father knows his son.
Comrade Political Commissar sighed, and he hit the mark of Comrade Army Commander's heart. The problem that Malashenko is facing now is the same problem that he encountered and troubled when he was still young and had a lot of hair, not bald, and had not dealt with it properly, and ended up with a "bad ending".
And according to the current development trend, I am afraid that the series of problems that Malashenko will face in the future will be more difficult than what he did at the beginning.
Comrade Political Commissar knows very well that his current body is destined to be unable to accompany Malashenko all the way; in the foreseeable short-term future, they are destined to be separated forever, which is something that cannot be escaped no matter what.
But at least now, he can still accompany little Malashenko and continue to give him advice and suggestions. It is better to help as much as possible than to be unable to do anything.
Thinking of this, the political commissar, who had already come up with a compromise in his mind, then quietly spoke to Malashenko again.
"Will this work? Why does it feel like it's not so easy to operate?"
After hearing the political commissar's signal for him to come over and whisper the "solution" to him in a low voice so that others wouldn't hear it, Comrade Lao Ma, who had never done this in his previous life, couldn't help but feel a little confused and doubtful, but the political commissar's answer was very straightforward.
"If you have a better way, you don't have to rack your brains with me here. So if you don't have a better way, then you can only do this, what do you think?"
"Hey, what the hell is this!"
No matter how reluctant he is, he has to admit that the situation is just as Comrade Political Commissar said. Malashenko, who really has no better way, can only nod and agree.
"Then do it this way, I'll go find Anya and ask her to prepare."
"Wait, there's one more thing"
Calling Malashenko, who was about to get up and leave to hurry up to do things, Comrade Political Commissar, who didn't think he was doing anything unnecessary, finally reminded Malashenko.
"Then Jack's wife should be dressed up very well. Do you think we need to find someone to help Anya? After all, Anya is still working in the field hospital and has no conditions to dress up immediately."
"If you think it's necessary, I can arrange for someone to find her immediately. Berlin is not short of such professionals."
""
After the political commissar said this, Malashenko felt that he could imagine what it would be like when Jack, wearing a shiny US Army major general uniform with two stars, appeared in front of him with a woman dressed up like a long-legged Christmas tree.
Soldiers have the dignity of soldiers, and troops have the face of troops.
Especially in front of friendly forces with more delicate relations, it must be said that the political commissar's suggestion is not so unreasonable, at least this is also a perspective to think about.
But on the basis of the political commissar's advice, Malashenko did have some of his own ideas to mix in, and he didn't really care about the superficial "competition" in the matter of "women's beauty".
Malashenko even had the idea of doing the opposite, just to let Jack see the essential difference between his confidence and the mutual understanding.
Thinking of this, Malashenko, who had already made up his mind, then rarely declined the good intentions of the political commissar, which should be the first time this year.
"There is no need for this. The lover of the proletarian fighter does not need to compete with the capital of the upper class who worship money in the expression of beauty."
"I have my own way to deal with this matter, don't worry."
