"Do you know your name, Comrade Lieutenant?" Shulka stopped what he was doing and looked up and asked.

"Of course!" The lieutenant replied: "My name is Kalashnikov, comrade second lieutenant, what about you?" ”

Kalashnikov, this guy is really Kalashnikov, the guy who designed the AK47!

Shulka was so excited that she almost jumped.

Shulka guessed that tank drivers usually like to delve into and tinker with some gadgets...... It seems that it is not at all surprising that such soldiers will be recruited into the 4th Tank Brigade, and they can drive tanks and repair tanks, which is what the 4th Tank Brigade needs.

"Ensign, comrade ensign......" Kalashnikov's cry woke up Shulka, who was in a daze: "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Shulka, Lieutenant!" Shulka hurriedly replied: "It's an honor to meet you, Comrade Lieutenant!" ”

"You're Shulka?" Kalashnikov bent down and looked at Shulka with a muddy face in surprise, and asked: "Are you the 'breakout hero' they are talking about?" ”

"Yes, Comrade Lieutenant!"

Then Kalashnikov jumped from the turret, clasped Shulka's hand tightly and said: "Sorry, Comrade Shulka, I didn't recognize you. I've seen you in the newspapers, but ......"

"I know, Comrade Lieutenant!" Shulka spread his hands, showed the mud all over his body, and said, "If you don't go back to the tank, I won't recognize you soon!" ”

Then the two of them laughed in unison.

The behavior of the two soon made the instructor on the side dissatisfied, and he shouted loudly into the mud: "Back to your post, I believe you can talk more happily on the battlefield!" ”

This is polite, this may be affected by Shulka's reputation, otherwise he would have been scolded a long time ago!

Shulka and Kalashnikov knew they were wrong, hurriedly shook hands again and returned to their posts as ordered.

The training schedule is tight and there is little time to rest.

Kalashnikov came to him at lunchtime, carrying a buckwheat paste in one hand and black bread in the other...... At this time, the food in Stalingrad was still good, after all, this was the largest tractor factory in the country, and the soldiers ate according to the same standards as the workers in the factory: pea paste or millet paste or buckwheat paste, two slices of bread, mashed potatoes, and ten grams of butter.

Shulka nibbled on bread as he gave way to Kalashnikov, who sat down next to him.

"Comrade Shulka!" Kalashnikov chewed his food and said vaguely: "Do you know what imprints me the most?" ”

"What?"

"Minesweeper tank!" Kalashnikov said: "You actually used stone grinding to sweep mines, what a stroke of genius...... How did you come up with this? It's amazing! ”

Shulka should have guessed a long time ago, and Kalashnikov, who likes to tinker with such things, will certainly only be impressed by such inventions.

"It's a pity that it doesn't work well now!" Shulka said: "It has rained so far that it is difficult for the tank to advance on its own on the road, let alone push a heavy and big mill in front!" ”

"yes!" Kalashnikov nodded: "But that doesn't affect that it's a good invention, especially since it also won a battle in Kyiv......"

"Comrade lieutenant, comrade company commander!" At this time, the actor sitting next to him interjected with a bitter face: "Why don't you discuss inventing something to use on it?" ”

As he spoke, the actor raised his head at T34 in the mud.

"That's right!" The veteran said, "Otherwise, we will have to vomit all this food again!" ”

Kalashnikov laughed: "That's mud, comrades, the best thing to do is to build a well-drained and well-conditioned road!" ”

Shulka also responded angrily: "Why don't you think about it......

Shulka was stunned before he finished speaking, and then scolded himself: "How did I forget it, a few days of training are in vain!" ”

"What?" Kalashnikov and the fighters looked at Shulka with curiosity.

The actor, who was still gobbling up, stopped what he was doing and asked, "Comrade Company Commander, is there a way?" ”

The cautious look seemed to scare Shulka away if he was louder.

"Yes, there is a way!" Shulka put the lunch box on the ground, got up and stepped on the mud and walked to T34, looked at it, and said to the fighters who followed, "I need some tools, though!" ”

"What tools do you need?" Kalashnikov replied: "I can fix it, I have been working here for half a year, I can go and borrow from Comrade Sisoy!" ”

Kalashnikov said that he worked for half a year, and he came here to direct the production of the device for recording the number of bullets fired from tank machine guns and the tank fuel consumption meter that he invented.

In other words, he has a certain network in the field of military scientific research in this tractor factory.

Shulka thinks he's much better than Sisoy.

Perhaps Sisoi has more expertise than Kalashnikov, such as tank suspensions, engines, and other high-tech things...... For these scientists like Sisoy, it is definitely a profession.

The problem is that Sisoy does not know enough about the needs of the battlefield.

In fact, this is also a common problem of scientists in various countries, even in modern times.

Kalashnikov is different, he is a soldier, a tank soldier, and at the same time likes to invent designs since he was a child, such as dismantling the alarm clock and making his own small toys, which allows him to design very down-to-earth things that the army really needs, such as two things that have been put into production, and he will design a tank track in the future.

In this respect, Shulka thinks that it is a waste to send such people into battle, in case there are three long and two short on the battlefield......

These are all later words, and the tools Shulka asked for at this time were actually quite simple.

"First of all, I need a log, which is hard and has a large diameter...... 300MM, LENGTH 3 METERS 3! ”

"Leave this to me, Comrade Company Commander!" The thief immediately answered: "There are a lot of such logs behind the workshop!" ”

With that, he called the actor and left.

Shulka then turned his gaze to Kalashnikov and said, "I also need two wire rope sleeves, one end to fit the log, and the other end to get stuck in the perforation of the track, you know what I mean?" ”

Kalashnikov quickly understood what Shulka meant, he looked at Shulka with wide eyes, and said with some excitement: "You mean, stuck logs under the tracks?" ”

"Yes!" Shulka nodded.

It's easy to talk to Kalashnikov, if it's Sisoy...... I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it for a long time.
