Chapter 225 Concern


    "Let''s say you designed something useful!" Shulka said.


    "I did!" Kshnikov replied.


    Kshnikov is referring to his design of tank machine gun counters and fuel consumption gauges.


    "No, no, not just these!" Shulka said: "There are other things, it is important enough to attract the attention of the superiors!"


    "It''s almost impossible, Comrade Shulka!" Kshnikov said: "There are many people doing such things, I mean those scientists..."


    "They do!" Shulka said, "But don''t you think they usually don''t know what we need?"


    Kshnikov nodded in agreement.


    In fact, the counters and fuel consumption meters he designed are notplicated. If the scientists design them, they can easilyplete them. The problem is that the scientists don''t know that the soldiers fighting on the front line need them.


    "But what could that be?" Kshnikov asked.


    This question stumped Shulka.


    He wanted to directly tell Kshnikov to develop the AK47, and even if necessary, Shulka could draw him a big picture.


    The issue is…


    At this time, the research and development of AK47 may not be epted by the high-level Soviet army. A rifle that can fire continuously, and the bullets have to be redesigned... This will be considered a waste of some kind.


    At least that''s what Hitler thought. He thought that this kind of rifle is almost equivalent to equiping every soldier with a submachine gun, and the range is not as far as the enemy''s bolt-type rifles and light machine guns. This is a huge impact on logistics and industrial production capabilities. The performance may not be satisfactory due to the challenges.


    So, Hitler vetoed the production n of the STG44 rifle, and then the military used the MP43, that is, the number of the submachine gun to deceive the head of state before it could be produced.


    The Soviet Union, knowing the power of the STG44 on the battlefield, began to develop intermediate ammunition, so the AK47 came into being.


    To put it simply, this kind of advanced consciousness is now proposed to subvert the entire country’s ammunition production line and even eliminate all bolt-type rifle designs, and it is a tank lieutenant or infantry second lieutenant who proposed this design... More likely to be directly rejected Instead of getting Kshnikov noticed by the R&D department.


    At the same time, Shulka also knew that Kshnikov would not ept ideas and ideas that were directly proposed and then presented to him.


    After thinking about it, Shulka said: "It can be anything, Comrade Kshnikov! All the things we need, such as mine-sweeping tanks, why don''t you improve it? I don''t want to have to use the roller all the time. Demining the battlefield!"


    "That''s right, Comrade Shulka!" Kshnikov couldn''t help standing up when he heard the words: "Why don''t we improve it? Design a special mine-sweeping tank!"


    "Yes, that''s what we need!" Shulka said. "It''s better to use it on muddy ground, I mean... the roller minesweeper is difficult on muddy roads, and soon we will be fighting on snow. With simr difficulties, that''s what we need, isn''t it?"


    "That''s right!" Kshnikov said: "Why don''t we use iron rollers instead of stone rollers?"


    "That''s right!" Shulka agreed: "The iron drum will not be easily exploded like a stone roller. Even if it is crushed with an anti-tank mine... it will only be blown with a hole, and this is not even It will affect its continued demining!"


    "Yes, it is an iron roller!" Kshnikov said excitedly: "As long as we control its weight well, or give it some extra power, it will not be a burden on the tank, but it may increase the load on the tank." The contact area with the ground, so that it is less likely to get stuck in mud or snow..."


    "Great idea!" said Shulka, "I''ve almost seen minesweeper tanks like this marching towards enemy positions on the battlefield!"


    "No, this is our idea, Comrade Shulka!" Kshnikov said: "Without your reminder, I could not have thought of this!"


    "Stop talking about this!" Shulka said: "I think you need to contact your friends in Stalingrad, and then let this tank appear on the battlefield as soon as possible, this is the most important thing!"


    "That''s right!" Kshnikov said: "I''ll go right away!"


    After Kshnikov left, Shulka couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief.


    If this doesn''t get the developers to notice Kshnikov, it''s their blindness to me.


    What Shulka didn''t expect was that... the R&D staff really noticed Kshnikov, but at the same time they also noticed Shulka.


    Because Kshnikov told them very kindly that this was the idea of ??both him and Shulka, and Shulka, as the pioneer of using the roller as a demining device on the battlefield, can be said to have contributed more.


    So more attention is paid to Shulka than to Kshnikov.


    That night, Sisoi rushed to Moscow from Stalingrad, and the first thing he looked for was Shulka.


    "Comrade Shulka!" Hisoy held Shulka''s hand and said, "I''m d to see you again. I didn''t expect you to have a new design like this..."


    "New design? You mean minesweeper tank?" Shulka said: "Sorry, Comrade Sisoy! That was Comrade Kshnikov''s idea!"


    "He told me it was your idea!"


    "It''s our idea, but he thought of more..."


    "I still remember that you modified the tank antennast time!" Sissoy said: "It turns out that you are right, they can''t find ourmand vehicle anymore!"


    After a pause, Hisoi continued: "We think your ideas are very unique. They don''t even requireplicated technology or industrial capabilities, and they can achieve good results with a simple transformation... So, I don''t know if you Interested in working with us?"


    At this time, Katukov broke in from the door and answered Shulka bluntly: "No, I don''t agree! Comrade Sisoy, we need Shulka, and the front line needs Shulka here!"


    "I know!" Hisoy replied: "But Shulka may be able to y a bigger role in the R&D department, and he is just a soldier here..."


    "He is not only a soldier!" Katukov said: "He is also a ''breakout hero'', even Moscow needs him here!"


    …


    Sisoi and Katukov were arguing endlessly, but Shulka, the person involved, was left alone.


    "Comrade Sisoy!" said Shulka, "Can I say a few words?"


    "certainly!"


    "Do you think, if I leave the battlefield..." Shulka said: "That is, sitting in the office, can I still think of things like minesweeping tanks?"


    Hearing this, Hisoi couldn''t help being stunned.
