Rebirth of the National Marshal

"What do the rest of you think? Do you think the Second Army needs to withdraw and rest?" Although he already knew the result, Marshal Timoshenko felt that he still had to be responsible for the soldiers. After all, he was their military chief and he should give them some time to rest and adjust their mood.

When speaking, Marshal Timoshenko was looking at the commander of the Second Army. He said, "If you dare to stand up and say something, I will immediately back down and let your Second Army go and have a rest." However, the guy just picked up his water cup, drank a glass of water slowly, and said nothing.

What a damn coward! He is the commander of an army group with more than 100,000 people, but he dare not say a word during the meeting. Whatever the political commissar says is the truth. People like you are really not worthy of being an army commander. When facing this look, the commanders of the Second Army didn't even look at each other. They lowered their heads and looked at their tea cups, as if they could see a gold in it.

In fact, the army commander had a lot of grievances in his heart. You, a marshal, don't dare to confront these political commissars head-on. You want me to stand up for you, but how can I be so brave? Moreover, the political commissar of our army group is different from other political commissars. He has a backer in Moscow. If you offend such a person, you will be killed without knowing it.

Since the arrival of this young man from Moscow, he has basically made the final decision on all matters of the Second Army. As the commander of the army, I am just a decoration. Except for my own guard company, other military commanders don't listen to me. They are all sycophants who know who is in charge in the Second Army. At such a critical moment, let me offend the political commissar for them. Do you think you will do such a stupid thing?

Of course not. If those subordinates were still on the same page with me as before, then for their lives, I could still do this. But now they are on the same page with the policy committee, so let the political commissar seek their own benefits. As the army commander, I should not interfere.

"Since no one has any objections, let the Second Army take on the defensive mission. Quickly arrange all defensive measures at the frontline. I estimate that the people in Chachahar will soon start to attack us. Anti-aircraft weapons are still very scarce. Immediately send a telegram to the logistics department and ask them to urgently transport a batch of anti-aircraft weapons." In the eyes of the military commander, Marshal Timoshenko's mission was absolutely correct, but in the eyes of the political commissar, it seemed like a life-threatening matter. What on earth are you doing? We are here to attack, how can we dig trenches and build a defense system on the spot?

It was a pity that Marshal Timoshenko did not give them time to object and left immediately after saying this. He certainly knew what kind of faces these political commissars had. In their eyes, a quick attack was necessary and building up defense meant being afraid and being a coward. They were unwilling to sacrifice for the motherland and unwilling to protect the supreme leader. They had no other abilities, but they could talk so eloquently.

When arranging combat missions, the commander of a front can only use some clever tricks, rely on his quick departure, and make decisions on his own. The military chiefs dare not say a word, and all the words are spoken by the political commissars. If this is the case, what are the military chiefs for? Just let the political commissars command the battle. Aren't they omnipotent? Can't they do everything?

"This is outrageous. Marshal Timoshenko did not adopt the principle of democratic centralism at all. He did not let us speak at all. This was definitely his decision alone. If anything goes wrong, he will be responsible for us. This is an army of 25 people. This is not his own army, but the army of the motherland. Everyone has the right to speak, but he did not even give us a chance to speak." The political commissar of the Second Army put a big hat on Marshal Timoshenko as soon as he opened his mouth, which made some of my military commanders feel that the marshal was not worth it.

It was obviously a very correct decision, but it brought such consequences. It is really chilling. Is our country controlled by these people? Is it controlled by these damn political commissars? If this continues, how can our great motherland become strong? They simply can't do anything. They are just a group of clowns who can only make trouble.

Half an hour passed quickly. The armored regiment of the Chahar army had already gathered and arranged in combat formation. The so-called combat formation was an arrow shape. Such a cone shape was easiest to rush into the enemy's position.

"Listen to me, everyone. I applied for this mission with great difficulty. The higher-ups have already seen the capabilities of the 1st Armored Regiment. Now it's all up to us, the 2nd Armored Regiment. We are all armored soldiers, so we must not lose face." Originally, Qiu Qingquan should have been the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment. All the tanks in the 1st Armored Regiment had been replaced with German tanks, which were much more powerful than this Sherman tank. However, the 1st Armored Regiment was already an old and meritorious unit, so this guy chose the 2nd Armored Regiment. He wanted to rely on his own strength to achieve success, and they were facing the Soviets.

It turned out that this guy had seen the power of the armored forces at the Germans' place. It was a small-scale exercise with only a dozen tanks, but they were able to break through the encirclement and blockade of two companies and defeated the two companies. Now he has more than 130 tanks under his command, and according to reconnaissance intelligence, the enemy no longer has any weapons and equipment that can cause damage to his tanks, so he can kill them easily in the future.

The frontier position was no longer Qiu Qingquan's target. His target was the entire Soviet army. No matter how bold the people were and how fertile the land was, there was nothing that could not be done. The only thing was that people could not imagine it. This sentence was said by Mao Yuanshan, and it was the most fatal thing for a courageous man like Qiu Qingquan. This guy was bold to begin with, and with the indulgence of his superior officers, he was really going to poke a hole in the sky later, and all his tanks were ready.
