Chapter 2988 You Are so Crazy and Stupid
After returning to Moscow, Malashenko was not idle, but was busy with the preparations for the military parade.
Natalia was actually easy to deal with. Malashenko explained to his lover why he would go to war next, and what kind of enemies and opponents he would fight.
In Malashenko's words, the difference between the Japanese devils and the Germans is the difference between a little bastard and a gangster boss.
The little devils are a little capable at sea, but no matter how capable they are, they can't drive battleships onto land, and they can't fish up the ships that have been sent to the bottom of the sea by the Americans.
As for land.
Ha, what a joke.
What are you capable of on the ground, Japanese devils? Dare to touch porcelain with me?
If you don't let you Japanese devils see the Slavic iron fist, you Japanese devils don't know how many eyes the "horse king" has.
To round it off, Malashenko said that he was actually going on a trip this time, and sent a batch of Japanese devils to the sky one by one. Fulfill the Soviet Union's obligations as a responsible major country and carry out the just anti-fascist war to the end.
Natalia didn't understand those military matters, but when she heard her lover say to her so humorously and casually that "the Japanese devils are not even a fart", Natalia, who always believed her lover unconditionally, hesitated a little, but in the end, she chose to believe that what Malashenko said was true.
To be fair, Malashenko himself felt that the trip to the Far East was nothing at all. If you insist that I went there to brush my resume and gain military merits, that's not impossible.
After all, this is indeed the case. Malashenko would not, would not, and would not think that the Japanese were opponents who could stand up to the table and compete with him.
Malashenko even wanted to send a telegram in advance to remind the Japanese.
It's better to wash your Xiaodou tanks so that they won't dirty my car when they are overwhelmed by my IS7.
It is also suggested that the Japanese should install seat belts in their tanks in advance, so that when they are beaten and rolled on the ground, at least they can leave a whole body for the devils whose brains have been shaken.
But before that, Malashenko, who was busy preparing for the military parade and running back and forth between the training ground, the General Staff Headquarters, and his own home, had another very important thing to do before the military parade.
Just like Malashenko, Zhukov has been back in Moscow for some time to prepare for the upcoming Red Square military parade.
As the military parade commander who was named by his father Stalin to personally participate in the military parade, Comrade Zhu has been busy preparing for the military parade recently.
Various military parade-related documents are piled up on Zhukov's desk, and each one is waiting for Comrade Zhu to review, revise and sign it personally.
The military parade rehearsal on the training ground, from equipment to personnel to the size of the formation and the order of appearance, how to do it properly and reflect the best military parade effect.
These are all things Zhukov has to personally practice and summarize. Running to the training ground during the day and coming back to work overtime to revise documents at night has almost become the norm in recent days.
However, today is a little different, because tonight an old acquaintance will visit him - Malashenko, who is also very busy during the day and can only spare some time at night.
Knock knock knock -
"Comrade Marshal, General Malashenko wants to see you and is waiting in the reception room."
The familiar and rhythmic knock on the door slowly sounded. Zhukov, who was busy with copywriting, raised his head, rubbed his sore eyes, and reached out to get the teacup on the table that had already cooled down while speaking.
"Bring him over, I'll see him in the office."
"Okay, Comrade Marshal."
Half a minute later, when Malashenko, who was introduced by the secretary, appeared in front of Zhukov, Comrade Ma saw a rather haggard and tired face at first glance.
"You stayed up late again, Comrade Marshal, and it must be more than one night."
"There's nothing I can do. Time is tight and the task is heavy. Men have things men should do."
After taking a sip of the cold tea in his hand, he put it back in its place. He could think that Malashenko would come to see him so late, so there must be something. Zhukov, who didn't have much time, took the initiative to speak.
"Go ahead, if you have anything to say or ask, I won't refuse any answer, Comrade Hero."
""
Zhukov didn't often joke. When he heard Comrade Zhu speak like this, Malashenko was a little uncomfortable for a while, but he didn't think much about it and started to get to the point.
"It's about what will happen after the military parade, Comrade Marshal. I want to know whether the leader's army will participate in the next Far East anti-Japanese operations after the military parade."
Because of the change in the time node, the Red Army, which finished the Patriotic War earlier than the existing history, can now free up their hands to do other important things earlier, so that even the time node of the Victory Day military parade has been advanced.
As it should be, Malashenko can be sure that in the current timeline, the upcoming war against Japan will no longer be called the "August Storm" operation.
The Red Army has sufficient preparations, suitable conditions, and sufficient material foundation to launch an attack at an earlier time, march eastward, and send the bastards of the Kwantung Army to hell - or to participate in labor reform in the Red Army's prisoner-of-war camps. ɱ
Malashenko, who knew this well, neither said anything about the "August Storm" nor did he want to do nothing, wait for notifications from above and then accept them unconditionally.
The discussion with Malokov indeed touched and inspired Malashenko a lot.
You cannot sit idly by and ignore what you should fight for. If you fight for it, you may not succeed, but if you don't fight for it, you will definitely regret it. Having figured this out, Malashenko immediately took action, and the fact that he can now stand here and say this to Zhukov is proof of this.
Zhukov, who was not surprised when Malashenko came to the point and took the initiative to speak, even showed a "reasonable" expression on his face, just nodded.
"Well, I was thinking before that it's time for you to come to me and talk about this. Because my intuition told me what choice you would make, and now it seems that my intuition is quite accurate."
""
Malashenko continued to remain silent, waiting for Zhukov's next words.
Zhukov thought for a moment after speaking, and then continued to speak after a while.
"The bad news is that the high command is currently more inclined to let you and the leader army settle down for a period of time. I believe you can understand the reason."
"The Leader Division suffered considerable losses in the Battle of Berlin. Although your morale is high and your fighting spirit is high, the losses in personnel and equipment cannot be ignored. This is one of them."
"Secondly, only 40% of the personnel and equipment on your proposed list have been delivered to you so far. The leader's army is not at full strength now, and the exploration of everything from tactics and tactics to new organizational structures is in its infancy, and even There are no confirmed initial results yet.”
"The Great Patriotic War is about to come to an end, and the upcoming military parade is our last military operation of the Patriotic War. You also have the leadership division, and your evaluation in the Patriotic War is about to come to a perfect end, whether it is a military mission or a You have done a good job in your political tasks, and objectively speaking, you really deserve the rest you deserve.”
"Combining rest with exploration of the future, this is what the high command currently prefers for you to do in the next foreseeable period of time."
Zhukov's words sounded contrary to what he wanted to happen and gave the completely opposite result. However, Malashenko was still keenly aware of the key elements and spoke firmly with a firm tone.
"But none of this has yet to materialize, otherwise it would not be an 'inclination' but a written order."
"And since the bad news comes first, the good news will be late. Can I understand this? Comrade Marshal."
Malashenko's tone was serious and he was not joking.
Of course, Zhukov could guess what kind of answer Malashenko wanted to hear and what he wanted to do, and the words he spoke with a smile followed immediately.
"Your grasp of key points is as sharp as ever, just like you did on the battlefield."
"Yes, you are right. This matter is indeed not finalized. The headquarters is currently in the "leaning in" stage and is not finalized."
"There are two reasons, or key people, involved in this situation, and this is also the 'good news' you want to hear."
""
Malashenko had a premonition that "the big one is coming!" He held his breath and did not dare to speak, as if he was afraid of missing something. He eagerly waited for Zhukov's next "final judgment".
"Comrade Stalin and I have slightly different opinions on "tendency". For example, I think that if the leading army can develop and test tactics in actual combat, we can use those Japanese military tactics that have a low risk factor but can indeed serve as a practical demonstration. It will be better if a person performs surgery than to waste tank fuel according to the teaching materials on the training ground. "
"Comrade Stalin believes that it would be better if the honor of the leading army can be the icing on the cake. This is a political level. This will play an important role in promoting the mainstay role of the Soviet Union in the anti-fascist war."
"If the Leader's Army participates in the war, the honor and combat history of the Leader's Army itself will be the best testimony to the Soviet Union's great contribution in the anti-Fascist war."
"To the west, we smashed the evil heart of Nazi Germany; to the east, we smashed the most powerful war group of Japanese militarism."
"At a macro level, this is the Soviet Union; extending downward, this is the historical glory of the leader's army that the leader has personally experienced. The genuine results will make the detractors even more speechless, and the honor of the leader's army will be the same as the history of the motherland. exist."
""
It is obvious that "In the Name of the Leader" achieved great propaganda success after the Battle of Berlin. And Malashenko commanded the leader division and showed strong and unstoppable combat effectiveness in this battle.
These fatherly comrades who have "tasted the sweetness" have further thoughts and expectations for "greater honors".
Just like Zhukov said, this is based on the political level.
No matter how you look at it, whether it is public or private, if you let the leading troops beat up the Japanese devils again, you can get considerable political gains, the more the better.
As for Zhukov's personal opinion based on the military level, it is a more positive conclusion based on the actual situation after "playing with the Japanese and knowing how much the Japanese weigh."
In terms of understanding of the Japanese, there is probably no one in the Red Army who knows better than Zhukov, at least not at the military attache level.
After all, at the beginning of Comrade Zhu's military career, he really had to thank you for the excellent assists sent by the Japanese with a huge number of people.
What are the Japanese like now, what is the Red Army like now, think about how the Nomonhan War was fought, and what kind of cognition and conclusions were finally drawn.
At least on this point, Zhukov and Malashenko's opinions and views tend to be consistent - leading the army to the Far East is basically no different from "armed tourism".
It is training on the training ground, and it is also training to take the heads of the Japanese.
Since the difficulty coefficient is similar, Zhukov naturally thinks the latter is better.
After all, the latter itself has political significance on the basis of military significance, which is a two-birds-with-one-stone move, so why not do it?
Zhukov had long seen Malashenko's positive tendency to fight against Japan. Just from Malashenko's original combat summary after the end of the Berlin Campaign, he mentioned that "our troops still have the ability to continue high-intensity combat."
What do you want to do, Malashenko, I brought you out, how can I not know?
Now, it has both military and political significance. It must be said that there will be no better good news for Malashenko.
But whether this matter can be finally settled, Malashenko feels that he still needs to "ask more questions".
"Then how should I respond to the comrades' request for battle? Comrade Marshal. All officers and soldiers of our unit, from the army commander to the soldiers, are in high spirits and can't wait to deal the final blow to the evil Japanese militarists."
Malashenko can ask such a "very low-level" question, which makes it seem that his military agency can't even solve this small matter, and he has to let Zhukov personally answer questions and solve doubts. That is completely intentional.
The purpose is very simple and there is only one: I, Ma, will be scolded today, and I have to listen to the scolding with a smile, and then walk out of this office happily.
Zhukov, how do you answer it? I'm ready, buddy, just do whatever you want!
""
Zhukov laughed after hearing this. It should be said that he did not expect that Malashenko would be so "crazy and stupid" in order to hear "reliable news". The answer after smiling and shaking his head really made Comrade Lao Ma "get what he wanted".
"Tell all the officers and soldiers of the leader's army that the history books of the motherland have left blank pages for them, and history will wait for the victors to write it."
Sorry brothers, I have been busy moving these two days. I moved things from 11 o'clock this morning to 6:30 in the afternoon, and then I was busy unloading the car. I didn't have lunch until 9 o'clock in the evening. I almost exhausted myself. I will try to make up for more of the past two days tomorrow. For the time being, I will put this 4,000 chapter here. I apologize for not having time to tell everyone.
In addition, don't worry about eunuchs. There is no such thing as eunuchs after nearly 7 million words. Corgi personality guarantees it.
