Chapter 237: A New Appointment

Hearing Pavlov's words, Tukhachevsky shook his head: "No, Pavlov, your opinion is one-sided, although there are various other factors, however, we should be able to see that an army led by all mechanized equipment, mainly tanks, will dramatically change our tactics.

"The positional warfare, the trench warfare of the First World War, will disappear in the future." Tukhachevsky said: "The advanced mechanized equipment of the German army will bypass our carefully arranged defensive line and appear behind our positions, and only by relying on great depth will we be able to block the enemy's attack." ”

Tukhachevsky has been researching for a long time, and when Germany began to form its first specialized armored divisions, Tukhachevsky was paying attention to the reform of the German army, and he was already keenly aware that a military change was just around the corner.

During the First World War, it was mainly positional warfare, everyone dug trenches and defended each other, and it was really impossible to advance for the time of the previous year, and the large-scale use of tanks to carry out the impact could avoid these, and the position could not cover all the places, and the other side would bypass it at any time.

Just like this wonderful battle on Spanish soil, the Spanish government army simply did not have time to lay out more defensive lines.

The impact ability of the tank is too strong, and the Panther tank of the Germans is also quite tough.

In the future, once Germany and the Soviet Union went to war, how should the Soviet Union confront it?

Of course, it depends on the great depth! The Soviet Union has a vast territory, and no matter how powerful the impact of Germany's mechanized equipment is, it will reach their limit in the deep and vast Soviet Union.

These are all determined by logistical supplies!

Hearing Tukhachevsky's words, Pavlov blushed, and he said: "Marshal, if the tank is not accompanied by infantry, it is a live target, and our tanks are all destroyed by the opponent's anti-tank guns." I do not propose to massively concentrate on use, in front of the opponent's anti-tank guns, our tanks, simply vulnerable. ”

"That's because our tanks are too backward." Tukhachevsky said: "The German Panther tank is better than all our existing tanks, so we can't wait any longer, we must have more advanced tanks, and the German Panther tank is the indicator of comprehensively surpassing the German Panther tank!" ”

Although they did not get the German Panther tanks on the battlefield, they were still able to roughly figure it out through these time contacts.

"First of all, the protection of our existing tanks is too weak." "Our advanced tanks must withstand direct fire from 37-mm guns at close range and oblique fire from 75-mm guns at medium and long ranges," Tukhachevsky said. ”

On the Spanish battlefield, Germany's 37mm anti-tank guns were able to knock their own T-26s down, so the new tanks must be able to block the direct fire of the 37mm guns!

At the same time, the Panther tank of the Germans, which had two calibers, 50 mm and 75 mm, was a new tank that could withstand the fire of a 75 mm gun at long distances.

"At the same time, our new tanks will also have more ferocious firepower, and I propose to use 76 mm guns, which exceed the caliber of the Germans' tanks." "As for mobility, it should be at the same level as the existing fast tanks, and it should be in line with our current road level," Tukhachevsky said. ”

The USSR was full of dirt roads and in much worse conditions than in Europe.

Tukhachevsky was very determined, from the Spanish Civil War, he saw the great power of the concentrated use of tanks, it would be a completely new style of warfare, the Soviets just did not have suitable tanks!

"Boom!" Just then, the door was pushed open, and an officer, striding in, his boots clattering on the floor.

Entered the conference room without permission, and it was so rude! All of them expressed their anger with the look in their eyes at the officer who had come in.

"Marshal Tukhachevsky, you have a new appointment." The officer handed the letter of appointment to Tukhachevsky and said: "You have been removed from the post of First Deputy People's Commissar of Defense, and the new post is the commander of the Volga Military District." ”

Suddenly, everyone was shocked.

How is this possible?

Marshal Tukhachevsky, who did not make any mistakes, was demoted from the central to the local level as the commander of the military district?

The news spread quickly, and the whole army was shocked, except for the personnel of the People's Commissariat of Defense and the General Staff.

Tukhachevsky's face turned pale in an instant, his hands, constantly pulling his clothes, looking at the letter of appointment, he was almost angry, this is simply an insult to him!

………

"Stalin is going to attack Tukhachevsky." Sitting in the car, holding the documents that had just arrived, Ciric's face was excited: "Stalin can't just do it, he always has to make some noise first, this is the beginning, let's just watch the show!" ”

"Yes, this time, if the Soviets can carry out a purge in the army, their army will suffer a heavy blow, they will experience turmoil, and this is definitely good news for us." Hitler on the side followed.

The two were in the same car, and now, on the way to the company of Hanell.

Hitler was in high spirits, Cirek had so many ideas in his head, and every plan was so beautiful!

"FΓΌhrer, here we are." Finally, the car stopped in front of the Hernell building, the door opened, and Ciric and Hitler got out of the car.

This time I came to the Hellel company for the finalization of the new intermediate power rifle cartridge!

"In this Spanish Civil War, we mainly use MP36 submachine guns, the use of this automatic weapon, so that our soldiers in the tank battle, full of confidence, at the same time, but also exposed a lot of problems, and the World War I era of trench warfare is different, our submachine guns, to extend to about 300 meters of killing distance, is the best."

As he walked, Ciric explained to Hitler.

Hitler was a very paranoid guy, for example, he was very fond of submachine guns, and if he directly said that the new gun was called an assault rifle, then Hitler might slap his ass and leave, or slap the table and scold the street.

Now for the sake of improving the submachine gun, this reason, is enough.

Submachine guns, the use of pistol cartridges, because the recoil of the pistol cartridge is small, if the rifle cartridge is directly loaded, this kind of gun fires continuously, then except for the first bullet has an accurate head, the rest have long been flying, and the gunner can't stand this recoil.

However, the power of the pistol bullet is quite low, especially at a distance of 200 meters, it is no longer lethal. The machine guns attached to the infantry squad take care of the target at a distance of three or five hundred meters, so that there is a gap in firepower in the middle.

That is, a rifle cartridge of intermediate power is needed to fill the gap!
