Chapter 551: White Death
After all, China does not even have experience in the use of sniper rifles, so how can we talk about developing and producing sniper rifles?
Because of this, Odoff feels that he is doing the right thing, didn't China cut its head and wanted Vietnam to be equipped with your sniper rifles?
In this case, I will give you this opportunity to let your similar equipment compare with the classics tempered by the war of the Soviet Union, and then it will be clear whether it is a mule or a horse.
In this way, you can also give those radical comrades in China a higher memory, you can aim high, but you must not be ambitious, humble and honest, and honestly follow the big brother of the Soviet Union is the right way!
In fact, there were not a few Soviets who held such ideas, especially among the top leaders of the Soviet Union, and the pro-China wind gradually gained the upper hand, on the one hand, the Korean War gave China a momentum and a national character, and the Soviet Union had to admire it in the face of unyielding power.
On the other hand, with the full consolidation of the new Chinese regime and a comprehensive understanding of the Chinese leadership, some of the real power faction in the top echelons of the Soviet Union felt that it was better to win over China than to control it.
After all, the Soviet Union's strategic center of gravity was really in Europe, and it really had no energy to manage Asia, so instead of being a double-headed eagle that took care of both Europe and Asia but did not live up to its name, it was better to concentrate on dealing with the huge power of the United States in Europe.
As for the chassis in Asia, it will be handed over to China, and with China's internal dynamics and high-level tough posture, it will definitely contain most of the strategic resources of the United States very well, just like the Korean War, allowing the Soviet Union to gain huge benefits in Europe, and even once prompting the French Communist Party to win the French election, almost turning this old imperialist country into a red country.
Because of this, calls for cooperation with China in the Soviet Union gradually increased, and even Stalin, who took a tough stance on China, had to reconsider his relations with China.
Under such a general trend, the Soviet Union's technical barriers that were originally bitten to death have gradually loosened, and instead of stopping China's gradual rise in independent innovation, it will help in disguise.
However, in the absence of clear policy directives, this support is not strong and extremely obscure, like a high-precision rifle that China is trying to break through.
If you had put it a year ago, you would have wanted to create a Mosin Nagant to challenge the Soviet Union? The party, government and army have long been out together, until the project is completely wiped out, and they still want to compete on the same stage and think beautifully!
However, although the policy of the Soviet Union has been loosened, there is still widespread skepticism and even contempt for China's technological strength, and because of this, some of the technological innovations proposed by China will be praised by Soviet experts, but only praise, and they will come up with better and more powerful technical models, so that their Chinese counterparts can feel for themselves what real technological strength is.
Often, this kind of silent show-off and silent display made Chinese technicians embarrassed, not only did they no longer embarrass themselves with their pediatrics, but they were more active in learning Soviet technology and standards, and even gave birth to a large number of loyal Soviet supporters.
This surprised many Soviet politicians and technical authorities, who did not expect that the goal that could not be achieved by force and high pressure in the past would be successfully infiltrated in such a subtle and silent way.
The acquiescence to China's high-precision rifles is a microcosm of this change in attitude, and of course another manifestation of silent ostentation.
At least in the eyes of Odoff and others!
So Odoff handed over the perfect show to his right-hand man, Lieutenant Colonel Agaev, a veteran of the Battle of Stalingrad.
It was the turning point of Germany's prosperity and decline, and it was the place where the Soviet sniper became famous in history, and Lieutenant Colonel Agaev was the hero of the Soviet Union who stood out in that shocking war.
Although Agaev was just an ordinary artillery observer at the time, the brutal battle allowed him to get acquainted with many snipers who went behind enemy lines, and because of this, Odov felt that Agaev was the only one who could operate the steamroller.
In fact, Odov's vision is really good, and after Agaev received this task, he almost didn't laugh out loud, is this still called a mission?
If so, he doesn't have to go to those comrades with brilliant records, he, a half-sharpshooter, can play, has he never seen a pig cry or a pig run?
It's like an adult strong man going to rugby with a group of kindergarten-level children, although amateurish, but enough to sweep a group, it's not too simple.
Of course, I want to think about it, Agaev really didn't act big enough to play in person, as an officer stationed abroad, he is much more flexible than Alyosha, and he knows the core essence of silent show-off, otherwise how could Odov be so relieved to accompany *** to Moscow like a shopkeeper?
So on the night of Odov's departure for Moscow, Lieutenant Colonel Agaev contacted Lieutenant Colonel Vasily Zaitsev, who was a sniper instructor at the Kiev Infantry Academy, hoping that the sniper king of Stalingrad would come over and teach the Chinese comrades what real sniping is.
However, it is a pity that at this time, Lieutenant Colonel Zaitsev has been transferred to the reserve and is about to be transferred to the leadership of a factory in Kiev, so it is no problem to come, but the cumbersome and complicated procedures will delay a lot of time, and when he comes to Guinan, China, it is estimated that the daylilies are cold.
Agaev was disappointed, but not disappointed, because Colonel Zaitsev introduced him to another Soviet ace sniper, Colonel Nikolai Ilyin.
He fought in the Soviet-Finnish War and faced off against the legendary Finnish sniper Simon Heyer, known as the "White Death", although both were shot and wounded at the same time.
However, Ilyin was pierced in the shoulder, while Simon Haye left a deep scar on his face, for which Illin was awarded the Order of the Red Banner.
After the outbreak of World War II, Ilyin, who served on the Northern Front, first participated in the defense of Leningrad, and after transferring to the Karelian Front, he began to carry out counteroffensives near the Arctic Circle with his troops, and then participated in the Battle of Courland and the Battle of East Prussia.
With his superb sniper tactics and keen battlefield awareness, he killed 495 German soldiers, ranking second among Soviet snipers.
Because of its perennial cold and frequent snowfall, Ilyin was known as the white death of the Soviet Union.
With such a palace-level god coming to help, Agaev is no longer satisfied, he is simply excited, this is no longer a simple crushing, it is a rhythm to be crushed into powder, thinking about it is very bloody!
