Chapter 996 The True Inheritor of the Anti-German Hero

Shashmulin is the person in charge of the firepower upgrade plan in the timeline he is currently in?

Well, if that's the case, then now is the best time to start influencing him for the first time.

Malashenko, who was even more determined in his heart and frantically flapped his butterfly wings, thought this, and then he quietly spoke to Shashmulin who was still looking at him excitedly.

"I'm glad we think alike, Comrade Shashmulin."

"Since Comrade Ke Jing said that just now, I think the design sketch in my hand must have been drawn by you personally. At least you know this drawing very well."

"As a frontline combat commander and a tank commander, I would like to make a few simple comments. If there is something wrong or different opinions, we can speak up and continue to discuss them in depth. What do you think? Is that okay, Comrade Shashmulin?”

Malashenko wanted to leave a good impression on Shashmulin when he met him for the first time. Regardless of their status, it would help to develop long-term friendly exchanges in the future, so he kept his speaking posture very low. In Malashenko's view, this is a very important point.

Shashmulin's next reaction was exactly as Malashenko expected.

After nodding several times in succession, he quickly took out the small notebook and pencil he carried with him, and focused his attention on Malashenko.

The serious look on his face leaves no doubt about how important everything that is about to happen is to him.

"Okay, first of all, the gun trunnion part. I suggest moving it down a little bit based on this design sketch, so that we can get it."

Just after he had finished speaking half of the words he had just composed in his head, an unexpected interruption occurred that Malashenko did not expect.

A middle-aged man opened the door without knocking and walked in quickly. With a hurried look on his face, he came straight to Ke Jing's side. He covered his mouth and Ke Jing's ears with his hands and lowered his head to start. Whisper quietly.

Malashenko couldn't find the aura of a soldier in this middle-aged man wearing glasses, and his ordinary civilian attire with a bit of culture further supported Malashenko's conjecture. The only thing that was certain was that Malashenko really couldn't hear what the man was whispering to Kogin.

But judging from the scene in front of me, it must be something confidential that is not suitable for ordinary people to hear.

Malashenko, who was neither curious nor questioning about things he shouldn't know, simply stopped and planned to see what Kotin's reaction would be. The principle of letting the guest do as he pleases applies everywhere.

"What did you say? Is this true? Is he really doing this now?"

Obviously, Ke Jin looked surprised after learning about an unexpected incident. The middle-aged man who was responsible for the report quickly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Yes, Comrade Kejin, you have to go over and have a look! If it's late, I'm afraid something will happen."

Kogin, who looked a little uncertain and unhappy, first glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, and then turned his gaze to Malashenko. His slightly apologetic eyes soon drifted into Malashenko. Shen Ke's eyes confirmed it.

"I'm so sorry, Comrade Malashenko."

"Some emergencies occurred in the factory below. In fact, there is nothing to hide from you, because you are one of the insiders of this matter. Therefore, I may have to leave you alone for a while."

Kogin didn't understand what he said and hid half of it. Malashenko, who had no time to complain about Kogin's speaking style, became interested and simply rode downhill on a donkey and asked questions.

"Can you explain it more clearly? Comrade Kogin, if this will not waste your time too much."

To say whether this matter was urgent or not, it was indeed quite urgent for Ke Jing, but no matter how urgent it was, it would still take tens of seconds to speak. Ke Jing, who also spoke without thinking, immediately replied.

"It's the German mechanical engineer you caught on the front line before, the Dr. August with an American diploma."

"I have to say that he really knows something very valuable to our Red Army, and is very willing to cooperate with our work, but he talks a bit too much, useless nonsense."

"He spends all day in the factory tinkering with things that are difficult for ordinary people to understand. Comrade Shashmulin hates him. He feels that this German guy is wasting the resources of the motherland and deliberately inactive. But from the things he tinkered with, I seem to be able to I found something that I was very interested in, so I let him do it for the time being, but now he seems to have gone too far and wants to do something crazy.”

If Kogin hadn't brought it up on his own initiative, Malashenko could have sworn that he had really forgotten about the fact that he had captured Dr. August alive who came to the front line and wandered around, let alone what happened to the then leader. Bock, commander of the German Army Group Center, brought such huge trouble.

Dr. Porsche, who almost said "I am very angry and unhappy" on his face in front of the Führer, often talked about this matter in front of Hitler, complaining and complaining more than ever before.

For the sake of superficiality, but also to appease Dr. Porsche by giving an explanation.

The Führer sent a telegram directly from Berlin to the frontline army group headquarters, giving Bock a hard lesson for screwing up.

Threatened that if such a thing of failing to protect important targets happened again, he would be brought to the military court to be held accountable, which made Bock very embarrassed, but he had no place to vent his anger and had to admit defeat, after all, it was indeed he who messed up such an important task first.

Malashenko didn't know the classic plot of the Germans' big stick raised high and gently dropped. Of course, even if he knew, he would only complain about it and would not take it to heart at all.

What Malashenko is concerned about now is what this German doctor with a brain problem that he caught by chance and accidentally caught is doing in the tank factory managed by Kotin.

With strong curiosity, Malashenko grabbed his military coat and hat without saying a word and said that he would go with him.

Kotin would naturally not refuse this. It just so happened that Kotin also wanted to take Malashenko to the factory to look around and see something, and now it was just right to do it in advance. The only thing that made Kokin a little regretful was that the table of delicacies was abandoned before he could even eat a few bites. It took a lot of time to prepare this table of food.

When Malashenko followed Kokin and his party to the factory area, he saw the leader of the Beggars' Sect dancing and jumping up and down in front of an open tin box, as excited as if he had taken an overdose of drugs. Almost no one came out. The monkey-like creature in front of him was the German doctor who was caught by himself and sent to Kokin.

As for the whole set of artificial creations in the huge tin box, which looked so complicated, Malashenko fainted and fell to the ground.

"Fuck you! It turns out that this idiot didn't learn a few tricks, but he learned Porsche's anti-German hero to the fullest!"
