Rebirth of the National Marshal

"Sergeant, come and take a look. Am I seeing things? How come there is a crack on our cannon? Didn't you say that all these cannons were directly pulled out from the military factories in the Central Military Region? There shouldn't be such things. They are all brand new, but this crack really exists. Come and take a look. If this is really a crack, then when we have a war later, it will definitely blow us up first, and we will be dead!" A new soldier said in a low voice. He also knew that if this matter got out of hand, it would be absolutely terrible.

"Is there something wrong with your eyes? These cannons were all produced by the First Central Military Factory in Moscow. That is the best military factory in the Soviet Union. They have produced many famous weapons. Cannons like ours have been produced for many years. There will definitely be no problems. Don't talk nonsense, those political commissars are standing there. If you slander the First Military Factory of the Central Military Region, it will be a serious crime." The squad leader said in a low voice.

The squad leader had not finished his words. The person in charge of the First Military Factory of the Central Military Region was Comrade Stalin's nephew. If you doubt their exported products, wouldn't that mean you are doubting Comrade Stalin's nephew? If you doubt Comrade Stalin's nephew, then you are doubting Comrade Stalin. This is a big deal. You are a counter-revolutionary. If the political commissars knew about this, they would definitely take you out and shoot you.

However, because his own life was at stake, the squad leader still went over to take a look. This look gave him a fright, as he thought something was wrong with his new recruit.

It is normal for new recruits to make jokes in the army, so the old soldiers will not believe most of what the new recruits say. However, if a squad leader says it, the old soldiers will believe it very much, because the squad leader has been in the army for more than three years. If he can't even tell the crack on the gun barrel, then all these years of service will be in vain.

This matter was quickly reported to the company commander, because the squad leader also saw the crack clearly. The crack was definitely not small. If it was fired during a war, it would very likely explode. The squad leader also secretly went to take a look at several cannons around him, and sure enough, they were all the same as his own. If a cannon had such a crack, it must be the workers' negligence, but several cannons around it were like this, which was a bit strange. Fortunately, the company commander was more aware of the situation, which meant that there was only one situation where they used a bad mold.

The molds for making cannons in military factories need to be replaced regularly because there will be some residues inside. If they are not replaced regularly, then timely maintenance is acceptable. But the problem is that the First Military Factory in Moscow is responsible for too many projects, and their technology cannot keep up with many things. There are only a few engineers in the factory, and the rest are all workers. In order to save face in front of Stalin, Comrade Stalin's nephew immediately ordered his subordinates to increase production and did not give the engineers time to inspect the products, so this happened.

If the engineers were given enough time, they would never allow such things to leave the factory, because such things were directly sent to the army after leaving the factory, which was really irresponsible to the soldiers in the army. Such things would not be able to deal any damage to the enemy on the battlefield, and it would be good enough to be able to save their own lives. If the new recruit had not discovered this just now, they might have been directly killed by their own cannons in the battle later. Such a thing would have become a joke and spread out, and the Soviets would have really lost face.

"We have discovered the Chinese armored forces, with about two hundred tanks. Send our armored forces over immediately and have the heavy artillery regiment bomb them." Just as the Soviet heavy artillery company commander was thinking about how to solve this problem, the order from above had already come down.

Their scouts have already discovered the Chinese tank troops. Now their heavy artillery regiment is required to immediately fire artillery shells to cause trouble for the Chinese tanks. They must intercept them. If these tanks are allowed to rush into the infantry camp, then these infantry divisions will be killed here.

I thought we had to deal with this problem, but now no one is dealing with it and we let these heavy artillery fire. Isn't this a fatal thing? It's not that we don't want to support the front line, but these things can't fire. If they explode in our area, the loss will be greater than the loss of other people's shells. There are people all around this artillery position.

The tanks of the Soviet army are relatively scattered, so it takes a certain amount of time to gather them together. Now the role of the heavy artillery regiment is shown. You have to buy time for the tanks. As long as your heavy artillery can stop the Chinese tanks, your contribution will be the first.

"What on earth are you doing? Why don't you fire quickly? The Chinese have already rushed in front of us. If we can't stop their tank troops, we will all die here when their tank troops rush in. What on earth are you doing? What time is it now? Haven't you come to your senses?" The commander of the heavy artillery regiment had no idea what was going on.

Now he came over and scolded these soldiers. By the time the company commander reacted, several soldiers had already been beaten.

"Comrade Commander, it's not that we don't want to fire. Come over here and take a look. There is a crack on this cannon. If we forcefully fire, not only will the shells fail to reach the enemy, but it will most likely explode where we are. Our losses will be huge then. Not only will the brothers around us not survive, but the positions we have just built will also be destroyed. We won't even have the last line of defense against the Chinese." The company commander was also very depressed.

As the commander of the regiment, you should have asked about the situation when you came up. Now you don’t know anything and just come over and scold my soldiers. What kind of thing is this?

The commander's anger was quickly suppressed, and he hurriedly followed the soldiers over here to see what was going on. Sure enough, there was such a crack on the barrel. It was obvious that this was not caused by artificial means. It should have been caused when the artillery was manufactured. It must have been done by those people at the Moscow Military Factory of the Central Military Region. It was really damn damn that such waste was also brought to the battlefield.
