Steel Soviet Union

Taketake Okada, who thinks his analysis is accurate and appropriate, is a little proud. In his opinion, "every man has a machine gun" is simply impossible and pure nonsense.

For the Japanese army whose level of light weapons is really unflattering, submachine guns cannot be widely used as equipment, let alone machine guns. It is normal for Okada Yiwu to take it for granted.

But it was different for the Germans, especially Stauffener, who had always maintained contact with the country. When he heard this, his whole expression changed drastically like a face change in a Sichuan opera.

"Mr. Lieutenant General, the situation has changed! If it were before I heard the news, I might have made suggestions and formulated a battle plan for you."

"But now based on the situation you described, I am 70% sure, no, 80% sure that this unit is the top elite of the Russian army, the Guards named after Stalin. 1st Tank Division."

"Your army may not know enough about this force, but one of their historical characteristics is their extremely strong mobility and unparalleled firepower. All infantrymen ride on fully enclosed infantry fighting vehicles with turrets, which are very tank-like. Armored tracked combat vehicle, which matches your scout's description."

"Another point is the infantry firepower. A long time ago, they were even ahead of our National Defense Forces and equipped with the latest assault rifles in batches. This is a fully automatic firearm that fires intermediate-power rifle bullets, and its design positioning is somewhere between submachine guns. Compared with traditional bolt-action rifles, it has the rate of fire of a submachine gun and the range and power of a rifle. It is a very powerful infantry assault weapon.

"The combination of the above two points, coupled with the strong actual combat effectiveness, it is almost certain that you are encountering the Russian Stalin Division! The battle situation is even worse than I previously expected. It can be said to be terrible!"

Because of poor information.

Lieutenant Colonel Stauffener, who was staying at the last moment before the end of the Battle of Berlin when he received various news and intelligence from the country, did not know that the Leadership Division had been expanded and promoted to a military-level unit.

But even so, this still does not affect Stauffener's understanding of the combat effectiveness of this top field force of the Red Army named after Stalin.

Although the top leaders of the Nazi Party are hiding everything and keeping secrets, they want to minimize various adverse effects through public opinion control.

But after all, paper cannot contain the fire. Over time, the news will inevitably leak out, not to mention that it is such a big event that tens of thousands of elite troops have been wiped out.

From the Grossdeutschland Division to the Viking Division to the Guards Division, even the top elite Grossdeutschland Division of the Wehrmacht was wiped out twice.

Countless elite German troops fell to the muzzle of this torrent of Russian top-notch steel one after another, and were rolled into the tracks and crushed into powder, their bones shattered and ashes spread.

The above things were originally hidden by Na Cui, but over time they became known to the outside world one after another.

At least everyone within the Wehrmacht down to the mid-level command staff knows about it, including Lieutenant Colonel Staufener, who was originally a front-line armored commander.

The top Russian troops, who pin down their own elites to the ground, rub and beat them, are very likely to have appeared on the battlefield and are about to kill them right in front of them.

This kind of bad news that was more terrifying than a ghost story simply sent shivers down Stauffener's spine. He didn't dare to think about how the Japanese would die against such an opponent.

But what Stauffener never expected was that after hearing his warning, Okada Yiwu could continue to speak ignorantly like a normal person.

"Thank you for your analysis, Lieutenant Colonel, but I think it still won't have much impact."

"No matter which unit the Russians send to fight, we will give it a resolute and thorough blow, fully demonstrating the powerful combat power of the elite divisions of our Imperial Army."

"Now that we have a preliminary understanding of our opponent, this should be a good thing. Moreover, the Lieutenant Colonel is so familiar with this Russian force, we should be able to defeat this group of Russians more easily and with ease, so please continue to provide more information. What useful information and help.”

""

? ? ?

For a moment, Stauffener even thought that he was insane or had something wrong with his ears, so he asked the translator in an unbelievable tone to translate Okada Yiwu's words accurately and word for word.

The fact is that Stauffener did hear it right, and Taketake Okada really wanted to fight the Russians, even after knowing that the enemy in front of him was basically the top elite of the Russians.

Not only that, this guy actually spoke arrogantly, dreaming of defeating the Russian Stalin Division. He naively thought that "understanding the opponent" and "defeating the opponent" could be equated.

Stauffener, who couldn't understand what was wrong with the Japanese brain circuits and logical thinking, didn't have time to think about it, so he spoke without thinking.

"Mr. Lieutenant General! I must remind and warn you again!"

"Understanding the Stalin division of the Russians and having their relevant intelligence information does not mean that they can win against them. There is no and cannot be a causal relationship between the two!"

"To be honest, countless top elite German troops were defeated by the Russians, including both the Wehrmacht and the SS."

"Before I came to Japan, when I was leading armored units fighting the Russians on the Eastern Front, you know how my soldiers described some of the rumors with fear?"

"They nicknamed the Russian unit the "German Elite Crusher"; and the commander of Stalin's division, the notoriously murderous Malashenko, was even called " "The Iron Butcher" and "Stalin's number one executioner"!"

"From 1941 to 45 years ago, the number of German soldiers who died in his hands was 3 to 400,000, if not 5 to 6 million, and almost all of them were front-line field troops, not second- or third-rate rear garrison troops!"

"I don't know if I described it incorrectly or if you misunderstood it, but in short, now I have made the seriousness of the problem clear."

"The Stalin Division is definitely not a force that your army can challenge head-on! Immediately withdraw into the city and rely on the construction area to defend it, and call for all reinforcements that can be called. This is the only way to delay Malashenko and his minions, and go to the field to provoke them. It’s simply asking for death!”

Stauffen was so anxious that he almost danced on the rafters.

It's no longer a question of how badly you'll lose in the fight with Malashenko. Maybe you won't even have time to implement your plan, and you'll be killed by the steel butcher until not even the scum is left. question.

These Japanese people actually dared to risk their lives to challenge Namalashenko for excitement, and they did so in the field battle format that the steel butcher was best at.

I really have never seen a steel butcher working, so I don’t know what it means for a battlefield to be like a slaughterhouse.

Stauffener thought that he had spoken directly and clearly enough, and he even told the truth, regardless of face, how badly his German army had been dealt with by Malashenko.

But he didn't expect that after hearing this, Okada Yiwu didn't even blink and continued to reply with a smile.

"So, in the face of such a ferocious opponent, I believe that the lieutenant colonel has analyzed the experience even if he analyzed the tragic defeat, right? With the powerful Imperial Army and this experience, our chances of winning are increasing. Please give me tens of millions Don’t underestimate the Second Division.”
