BXBX NOVEL Chapter 579: Benefit
When Major General Vladimir heard that more than 200 amphibious landing ships that had been built were going to be "misappropriated", his first reaction was to disagree.
"Comrade Sisoy!" Rear Admiral Vladimir said, "You know, this is a naval project, and I have been following and urging you to complete it. Now that I have finally completed part of it, I am told that other troops need this batch. Equipped and then nothing?"
"Yes, Comrade Vladimir!" Sissoy replied: "We are also carrying out orders!"
"What army needs it more than our navy?" Rear Admiral Vladimir asked angrily: "I want to know which army can **** the amphibious landing ship from us?"
"I\'m sorry, Comrade Vladimir!" Sisoy replied: "I can\'t tell you more about it!"
"Comrade Sisoy!" Major General Vladimir said: "Do you know how much this affects? You don\'t know how much this batch of equipment affects us and how much it affects this battle..."
"I really don\'t know!" Hisoey hung up the phone after speaking.
This **** Major General Vladimir half dead.
What Rear Admiral Vladimir said was not alarmist. It turned out that the Navy also had a naval plan. They planned to land in Mariupol from the Sea of Azov to attack the German logistics supply line when the German army concentrated its strength in the Caucasus and Stalingrad. To relieve the pressure on the Soviet Army in Stalingrad and the Caucasus.
To implement landing operations, of course amphibious landing ships are needed.
But now the amphibious landing ship that has been waiting for a long time has been requisitioned by other troops. How can this convince Major General Vladimir.
Major General Vladimir, who was out of breath, flew to Znamensk, the temporary foothold of the scientific research department, on the same day. During this period, Major General Vladimir often ran here because of the amphibious landing ship.
Sissoy received Major General Vladimir very politely, and said: "I am waiting for you, Major General Vladimir! There are some things that I am inconvenient to answer you on the phone!"
"What do you mean?" Major General Vladimir asked, "You mean... there is hope for those amphibious landing ships?"
"On the contrary, Comrade Vladimir!" Hisoy shook his head: "I advise you to stop thinking about this, you can\'t go back with these amphibious landing ships!"
"But these amphibious landing ships are ours, and they are very important to us..."
"This is an order from Moscow!" Hisoy interrupted Vladimir directly.
Vladimir choked, and then asked with difficulty: "Do they not know what the amphibious landing ship is for?"
"It is Comrade Shulka who needs this batch of amphibious landing ships. He invented the amphibious landing ships. What do you think?"
Major General Vladimir couldn\'t help being stunned for a moment, and then couldn\'t help cursing: "It turns out that this guy is making trouble. Is he going to use them in Stalingrad?"
Hisoi did not answer, but it was equivalent to answering.
"This is confidential, Comrade Vladimir!" Sissoy said: "I can only tell you so much, and...the Navy has to put on a show, that is, you have received amphibious landing ships and kept them in warehouses inside!"
Major General Vladimir couldn\'t help but said with a wry smile: "This is Shulka\'s idea again! He just punched me in the face, and he wanted me to tell him that the punch was good, the angle was right, and the strength was strong. Just right!"
Hisoi spread his hands, indicating that none of this has anything to do with him.
Major General Vladimir guessed right, these were indeed Shulka\'s ideas.
Originally Golikov planned to put these amphibious landing ships into use immediately after getting them, but was stopped by Shulka.
“We deserve the greater good!” Shulka said.
"Of course we can!" Golikov said: "With these amphibious landing ships transporting supplies, we may turn defeat into victory!"
"No, that\'s not what I meant!" Shulka said, "I mean, the Germans didn\'t know we were capable of opening other supply lines!"
"What kind of benefit can this be?" Golikov said: "They will always know! But I think they will be surprised when they find out that Stalingrad cannot be blocked at all!"
Then he laughed and said, "I really want to see their expressions when they hear the news, it must be very interesting!"
From this point of view, as an army commander, Golikov still can\'t look at the problem objectively and rationally. To a certain extent, he still wants to see the enemy defeated out of emotion.
It\'s human nature, no matter who it is, it feels good to see the enemy disappointed, frustrated and defeated.
If you are a soldier or a mid-level or low-level officer, there is nothing wrong with such a performance.
But if it is a senior military officer who is pointing out the country, he should analyze the problem thoroughly based on personal honor, disgrace, or even personal feelings, and get the greatest benefit from it as much as possible.
Shulka was silent for a while, and then said: "Once the Germans know that we have opened up several additional supply lines, and these supply lines are difficult for them to intercept, they will consider using other methods or means to attack Stalingrad!"
When Shulka said that, the others couldn\'t help but "oh".
"You mean..." Major Akimovich continued, "We won\'t let the Germans know?"
"Yes!" Shulka said, "to be precise, try to keep the Germans from knowing! So they will continue to concentrate their air power and artillery on the Mamayev Hill area to implement a blockade! We can provide them with Some false targets to consume their ammunition and energy, so that on the one hand, we can protect our newly opened supply line, and on the other hand, it can in turn increase the supply pressure on the Germans! After we have accumulated a certain amount of supplies..."
"We can launch a strong counterattack against their artillery!" Golikov seemed to finally understand Shulka\'s intentions.
"That\'s why I said that greater benefits can be obtained!" Shulka said: "No matter what benefits it is, or how many there are, we should grasp it as much as possible, because it is very important to Stalingrad now!"
The officers could not help nodding their heads in agreement.
No matter what, even if more than 200 amphibious landing ships are put into use, Stalingrad\'s supplies will still not be sufficient, so of course we must grasp every advantage as much as possible.
Then Golikov no longer hesitated: "Pass on the order, block the news, and arrange an amphibious landing ship for the absolutely reliable troops!"
