The 82nd brigade was assigned to the tractor plant for the production of rifle parts, which was also the pretext for Sisoy to transfer his troops to Stalingrad.

Sisoy immediately called Shulka into his office, and then pushed a blueprint in front of Shulka.

Shulka looked at it, it should be what Shulka called "tail stabilized deshelling armor-piercing bullet", but the appearance is very different from the modern one.

Sure enough, Sisoy said: "Comrade Shulka, this is a new type of armor-piercing bullet that we have initially designed according to your ideas, but many people think that it is not realistic, because the accuracy will be affected by the cartridge stock......"

Shulka couldn't help laughing: "With such a design, of course, the accuracy will be greatly affected!" ”

It turned out that Sisoi and others designed the entire core to enclose the tray, so the shape looked the same as an ordinary shell.

This is not a problem, but when the stock is separated from the core, it often obstructs the head of the core, so the core belt is deflected...... Then there will be a situation where the difference is a thousand miles.

However, it does not seem strange that the modern "tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing projectile" is evolving and evolving one after another, and finally reaching the most scientific structure.

Shulka thought it was simple because he knew what it would look like in the end, while Sisoy and the others were groping in the dark, and even at this time they were still in the stage of theoretical research, and some mistakes were normal.

"Is there anything else you can do?" Sisoy asked, confused.

"Why can't the core be longer than the stock?" Shulka picked up the pen next to him and said as he drew on the paper: "The core is limited in length on the inside, and more importantly, as you said, the accuracy will be greatly affected." If the core grows out of the stock, it's like this......"

Shulka pushed the drawn drawing in front of Sisoi with three strokes and two strokes, and Sisoy's eyes widened, and he took the drawing and praised it as if he had found a treasure: "Very good way, Shulka, you are simply a genius!" We should have brought you in a long time ago! ”

"Plus!" Shulka added: "The ratio of length to diameter of the bullet core is better at 20 to 1. Once it's done, we'd better put a thin brass hoop on the outer shoe of the butt! ”

"Thin brass hoops?"

"Yes!" "This way it doesn't split in half before use, and when the shell is discharged, the brass hoop is worn off by friction between the shell and the barrel," Shulka said...... After the gun is discharged, the butt will automatically fall off under the action of resistance! ”

"Great, Shulka!" Sisoi nodded repeatedly: "These ideas are amazing! I can literally see what they look like when they are produced! ”

There are some things that are not difficult at all if you know their structure.

The point is that when they first came out, no one knew what their most scientific and rational structure was.

This requires long-term experimentation, and even the cost of blood and lives, step by step to perfect.

What Shulka did was to omit all of this process.

Major Mikhailvich showed some displeasure with the new task of making rifle parts.

"We are combat troops!" Major Mikhailvich complained: "But now it is used here as a worker. One day, when we go to war, we won't be able to defeat the enemy with these skills! ”

"Comrade Major!" Shulka piled up a pile of documents on Major Mikhailvich's desk and said: "I think we should look at this!" ”

"What is this?" Mikhailvich looked at Shulka suspiciously.

"Map of the city of Stalingrad!" Shulka said: "And the city and sewer map! ”

Shulka got Kalashnikov with all this information...... As Shulka, he did not have access to these materials, as they were military secrets in wartime.

"What are we going to do with this?"

"Training!" Shulka replied lightly.

Mikhailvich spread his hands, waiting for further explanations from Shulka.

"Let's put it this way!" Shulka had already thought of an excuse, which, of course, was just an excuse.

"We certainly do not have an advantage in the field against the enemy!" Shulka said: "This is dictated by the fact that we are not equipped and there is not enough ammunition!" ”

Mikhailvich nodded in agreement.

"But urban warfare doesn't have to be!" Shulka continued: "We all know that when urban warfare heats up, collapsed buildings become an obstacle for enemy tanks, buildings from building to enemy artillery and air force that cannot find targets, and the enemy can only use infantry against us. To put it simply, both sides are light equipment! ”

Mikhailvich nodded again.

"The problem is, we don't know if we're going to be fighting enemies in the city in the future!" Andrianka interjected.

"We really don't know!" Shulka replied: "But why aren't we ready?" ”

After a moment of silence, Mikhailvich said: "Shulka is right, with our current equipment situation, no matter how we train in the field, I am afraid that it will be a dead end to go to the battlefield in the future, that is, training in this area can almost be said to be meaningless." But if it's urban warfare...... There is the power of a battle, that is, it is possible to win. So, why not? ”

"Yes, why not?" Shulka said.

Mikhailvich's analysis made sense, so Andrianka nodded in agreement.

It's just that Andrianka is not very motivated, because he thinks that even then these training sessions may be in vain...... There are not many things that can be encountered in actual combat in urban street fighting training, and there is still a considerable element of luck in whether it can play a role.

What they didn't know was that Shulka had a purpose, and he knew that in a few months there would be an unprecedentedly brutal street battle in their location, Stalingrad.

Shulka, on the other hand, was confident that he would be able to keep the 82nd Infantry Regiment in Stalingrad.

This is mainly due to the fact that the 82nd Infantry Regiment is the Bryansk Front, and it is still being reorganized.

At the same time, the production of rifle parts in wartime was in short supply, so why not if cannon fodder units like the 82nd Infantry Regiment could play a role in producing parts in the rear?

Then the 82nd Infantry Regiment just had to wait, for the day when the Germans hit Stalingrad.

At that time, even if the 82nd Infantry Regiment did not want to fight this battle, they would be organized by the Soviets to become part of the defense of Stalin.

For a unit similar to a punishment battalion, if you want to turn over, you must fight a big battle and a beautiful battle.

This battle was the Battle of Stalingrad.
