Steel Soviet Union

"I can't wait to get back to the team. This garbage time running around on the road is so boring. Every minute and every second spent killing those naughties is meaningful.

��

A column of tanks, like a long steel dragon, marched across the field. Their faces were not complaining, but they were full of boredom. Iushkin was lounging lazily outside the turret, with a cigarette in his mouth and smoking out from time to time. Smoke.

After handing over the treasure to Vatutin, Malashenko did not stay any longer. Even without Vatutin's urging, Malashenko had already kept his mission in mind, understood what he should do, and knew that he was not too far away. There is still a tough battle waiting for him to fight in the northern protrusion battlefield.

Therefore, Malashenko commanded the troops to hit the road again very quickly. After almost eating something casually, refueling and loading the tanks, and taking a short rest, they immediately drove on the road non-stop and headed straight to the north.

There is only less than five kilometers left to the meeting point agreed upon by the political commissar and the others in the telegram. He is about to meet his comrades and the most important people. Although the distance is not too long, it still makes Mara anxious. Shenke was in a happy mood. The separation on the battlefield is always a state that makes people feel somewhat on tenterhooks, for fear of something unexpected happening.

Malashenko knew this very well and knew how to eliminate this negative factor in his heart. The most direct solution was to reintegrate the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division into a powerful force and restore it to its original state. There is no greater sense of belonging and meaning than when comrades come together and fight together under the same red flag.

"Hey, let me tell you, we have made such a big contribution, you have to give me some reward. I can't ask for too much."

Such a sentence suddenly came out. Malashenko, who was also holding a cigarette in his mouth and half of his body outside the turret, became energetic. He glanced at Iushkin with his big eyes and answered.

"What kind of reward do you want? If you want a German girl, then I can't get it for you, but I can still give you a personal letter of introduction and let you go to the prisoner of war camp to pick one. Maybe you can pick up a German nurse. Come back and warm your bed after the battle."

It’s impossible for a bunch of big men to get together without adding some color.

In the 21st century, there are pictures that can promote people's feelings and communication. Although it is not so convenient these days, it is still okay to make a few colorful jokes.

"Give it to me? Then why don't you get one? It seems pretty good to see how two nurses fight on the bed.

""

When Comrade Lao Ma heard this, his face instantly darkened, as if he had a long face. Seeing that the situation was not good, Iushkin stopped talking and stopped talking, and began to speak with an apologetic smile on his face. It's down to business.

"I made an agreement with Kirill. We both want to go home together. It would be a good idea."

"He wants to go back and sweep his mother's grave. Apart from the political commissar, he has no other relatives in his family. A distant cousin with whom he was slightly related also died last year. It's just a thought. Even if he sweeps the grave, he still wants to go home and visit her. Look. I haven’t been back here for a long time. My mother wrote that my father is not in good health recently and keeps talking about my name in his dreams in the middle of the night. I want to go back. "

""

Iushkin wanted to take leave to go home to visit relatives, and Malashenko certainly had the power to approve the leave.

In fact, Iushkin has not returned home for a long time. His status as division commander, crew gunner and acting commander is so special that he cannot even take a break with Malashenko when he is on vacation. Going back, after all, the real captain is no longer on duty, so there must be an acting captain who is responsible for looking after the car and doing daily chores.

Seryosha didn't like to take care of things, and Artyom was not very familiar with some of the personnel connections in the logistics and division headquarters, so he had already become familiar with the political commissar comrades or the chief internal officer Karamov. Ushkin, who can be responsible for all kinds of chores inside and outside the crew when Malashenko is not on duty, is really the kind of person who can't do without him.

In principle, of course, Iushkin can be given false approval. Malashenko estimated that after the battle in the direction of the northern protrusion is resolved, the friendly forces in other directions should also push the Germans back to a similar level. After leaving the Soviet Union and moving the battle line back beyond the national border, it was time to set foot on Polish soil for the next battle.

It won't take long. After this battle is over, there will definitely be a long rest period, so it will be no problem to give Iushkin a holiday. It's easy to say for Kirill, since the company commander is gone and the deputy company commander is still responsible. There is no need to worry about the daily operations of the company. It is no problem for these former partners who have a good relationship to go home together for a vacation.

But when Iushkin said this, mentioning words related to parents and home, it brought back some thoughts in Malashenko's mind that he had not thought of for a long time.

How are my parents in the previous life doing now? I don't know anything about being in a different world. I don't even know whether the timelines of the two worlds overlap. I can't say that the original world is fixed at the time when I disappeared and passed through. A moment? Ha, isn’t it a bit conceited to think that “the whole earth revolves around one man”? Who knows, it doesn’t matter anyway.

If you really want to talk about it, I, or this body called Malashenko, in this other world, is an orphan who lost his parents at a young age and grew up eating the food of the villagers. He has no concept of the word "parents" at all. , and even more cannot find any memory related to this.

"Hey parents, hey, when did this start? Why are you so far away from this simple word?"

A sigh echoed in Malashenko's heart, and he could not give an answer. He had nothing to say except a long sigh.

Sighing, Iushkin's application still had to be approved. Malashenko, who had already made up his mind, approved the matter while chatting on the turret.

Not long after he finished saying this, the long steel column of tanks finally drove into the army camp. Malashenko could already see them lined up neatly on the grassland. They had not yet performed any tasks and were on standby. A whole row of IS6 heavy tanks. This magnificent scene is the most powerful symbolic mark of the famous Leader Division.

"Strange, why does everyone seem a little uh, a little not right???"

When Malashenko got back in the car and was about to tune the radio, he asked where the person was before getting out of the car to recruit people. When he heard this, he didn't take it seriously at first. He turned the radio while returning the radio in his hand. The cigarette butt flicked away the ashes, preparing to take one last puff to enjoy the pleasure.
