Chapter 749: The Sprout of New Thinking
"Comrade Bulganin, that is Wall Street, the center of the capitalist world. Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info We are now on Broadway, the most prosperous street of capitalism, and the prosperous ones are congested with traffic. Traffic jams are one of the most hated and ugly phenomena of working people in capitalist America, because the country produces millions of cars a year, and there is a serious overproduction, and because there are so many cars that there are not enough roads, it ......"
Comrade Bulganin, who had just watched a vulgar and obscene theatrical performance organized by the USO at the Broadway Theater, was now returning to Chelsea Pier in a spacious and comfortable Cadillac car. But unfortunately, it coincided with rush hour, and as a result, there was a long queue of cars on Broadway - the ugliness of the capitalist country, which is most hated by the masses of the people, appeared in a traffic jam!
Listening to Gromyko's serious nonsense, Bulganin only responded coldly. He had now seen through the true face of Gromyko, the red bureaucrat -- Bulganin was a proletarian revolutionary of the older generation who really believed that GCISM could be realized, while Gromyko, who was blind and liar, was a bureaucrat who was bent on becoming an official.
A person like him had not experienced the trials of the brutal revolutionary struggle at all, had never faced the butcher's knife and hard labor of the tsar, and joined the Bolshevik Party not because he believed in GCISM, but because he could become an official. And in order to be an official, you can tell any kind of nonsense!
The situation here in the United States is obviously that the capitalist situation is very good, and it is a big good and not a small good! How did it come to his mouth that capitalism was facing a major crisis? Even blocking a car has become an ugly phenomenon that the masses of the people deeply hate...... The masses of the people in the USSR wanted to block it, but the question was whether there were cars?
Probably because he didn't want to see Gromyko's face full of flattering smiles, Bulganin turned his head to look out the car window, and suddenly saw a group of Soviet Red Navy soldiers in sailor uniforms walking out of Wall Street, looking around with their necks tilted as they went, and from time to time Wall Street elites in suits and leather shoes and briefcases hurried past them -- world revolutionary fighters and Wall Street elites walking together...... It doesn't look like it's real!
Bulganin let out a long sigh and began to complain to himself. Because he had been deceived by the GC traitor of Blalaud on November 18, he relented and agreed to let the Soviet sailors receive the condolences of the working people of the United States -- that was a little of the heart of the working people of the United States! Can the GC fighters bear to refuse?
Outcome...... The condolences turned into a period for Soviet sailors to be re-educated in capitalism in batches.
The prosperity and affluence of the downtown area of Manhattan, not to mention these ordinary sailors whose ideas are not progressive enough, even the political cadres of the Atlantic Fleet of the Red Navy will probably be envious when they see it. In the past few days, almost all the political work cadres, including the comrades of the special department of the fleet, have gone to Manhattan to eat, drink, and have increased their purchases, and when they returned to the ship, they all had large bags and small bags.
If such exchanges are maintained throughout the war, how many anti-glossary lives will have to be captured in the future?
……
"No, no. The tactics of M4 medium tanks fighting infantry, M10 tank destroyers fighting tanks simply do not work. Fighting a war is not a drill, how can it be so well organized? And the Germans were not going to stop firing just because the opponent was an M4 tank against infantry.
In addition, the German infantry had strong anti-tank firepower, they had iron-fisted anti-tank grenade launchers, and the No. 3 assault gun, a self-propelled gun that posed a great threat to tanks, and their anti-tank guns were gradually becoming mechanized and armoured. So your M4 medium tanks may not be able to crush the infantry of the Germans!
As for the anti-tank capabilities of German tanks, of course, it was even stronger! Their No. 4 tank is about as powerful as your M10. The Tiger tank is simply invincible on the battlefield, and it is simply impossible to deal with a tank destroyer like the M10. ”
Lieutenant General Rimowik now got everything his wife wanted - a radio, a women's watch, high-end woolen wool, lots of velvet, a washing machine and a book for making women's clothes. These things were personally driven by General Bradley to Bloomingdale and Macy's, and the managers of the two department stores also gave a big discount to Lieutenant General Limowski to his Soviet friends who had come to help the American people. So Lieutenant General Limowski was now full of affection for the American people, and began to sincerely teach Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley, and others the tricks of fighting the Germans.
Before teaching the Americans the real skills, Lieutenant General Rimowski first went to the barracks of the US 2nd Armored Division on Long Island, New York, and got a glimpse of the magnificence of the US armored forces. He found that the American armored forces had a huge number of cars and half-tracks, and tanks and tank destroyers were beautiful (the workmanship was incomparable with Soviet goods). The clothes the soldiers wear, the food they eat, the barracks they live in, etc., are all first-class, and it doesn't look like they're going to Europe to fight the Germans, but like they're going to travel abroad.
But when it really went to war, Lieutenant General Limowski was 100% convinced that these American GIs would suffer greatly. Because the armored forces of the Americans made the same mistakes as the Soviets before June 1942, greatly underestimating the anti-tank combat power of the Germans!
The M10 tank destroyer, which is regarded as a treasure by the Americans, has no advantage over the German No. 4H tank, and it will definitely be beaten if it encounters a Tiger tank!
Their M4 tanks are also not very popular, they are too tall and big, and they are a big target on the battlefield. The power of the M3 75mm L/40 cannon was similar to that of the F-34 tank gun of the T-34/76 tank, and it was extremely difficult to fight the German No. 4H type, and it would definitely be a dead end in the face of the Tiger.
And the so-called self-propelled anti-tank gun, cobbled together with M3 half-track armored vehicles + cannons, seemed to Lieutenant General Limoskik only against German infantry. Because the various artillery pieces installed by the Americans on the M3 half-track armored vehicles were difficult to fight against German tanks.
As for the American M3mm anti-tank gun of the 37 type...... You don't have to take it with you to Ireland at all, because it's useless to go. Soviet 45mm guns are useless scrap, what else do 37mm guns hit? It is better to directly equip the M1933 75mm field gun with a shaped charge (HETA) armor-piercing projectile - this kind of chemical energy anti-armor projectile using the metal jet effect has nothing to do with armor-piercing ability and muzzle velocity, and the 75mm caliber shaped charge projectile can break through about 90mm of vertical armor, and will not attenuate the effectiveness due to the increase in distance. At first glance, it looks very powerful, but the flaw of this ammunition is also obvious, that is, it will be detonated by the attached armor attached to the tank and lose the armor-piercing ability.
Due to the heavy use of the "Iron Fist" and "Red Iron Fist" anti-tank grenade launchers (this weapon also uses shaped bombs), German and Soviet tanks are now equipped with auxiliary armor, such as skirt armor (so that the sides below the turret are not afraid of shaped bombs), or welded several tracks to the front armor steel plate of the tank.
However, the 75mm shaped armor-piercing shell is always more effective than the 37mm anti-tank gun, and the weight and ease of detection are not a problem...... If you can't shoot, throw it away after a few shots!
"It's wonderful! Lieutenant General, your opinion is so precious to us......" After listening to Lieutenant General Limowskik's explanation, Eisenhower's face was full of humble expressions of acceptance, although this Soviet lieutenant general was much younger than him, but he had really competed with the German armored division!
Eisenhower then added: "It seems that our men are still too inexperienced, and our army not long ago had only a hundred thousand men, and we did not even have a single armored division. If...... If many officers of the Soviet Army come to the United States to help us train our personnel and teach us the valuable experience of the Eastern Front in Europe, we will certainly greatly improve the combat capability of the US Army. ”
"Mr. Commander, do you mean to equip the US Army with Soviet military advisers?" Lieutenant General Limowskik, who had attended the Red Army University, was fluent in Russian English, had no problem communicating with the Americans, and therefore spoke directly to Eisenhower without a translator.
"Yes, yes, yes," Eisenhower laughed, "is the advisor...... The two sides should have more exchanges, and now that the navy has taken the lead, our army should quickly follow up. I think this will be very beneficial to the anti-Nazi and anti-fascist cause in the world. ”
Lieutenant General Limowski is right to think about it, and he should communicate more...... The United States does not look so reactionary, there are really a lot of good things, and there are a lot of things to learn from the Soviet Union. Moreover, there is not much mention of the world revolution above, and it seems that the liberation of the American people is not considered for the time being. So what reason is there between the United States and the USSR not to learn from each other?
Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Rimowski smiled and asked rhetorically: "Mr. Commander, does your opinion represent your government?" ”
"This is also the opinion of Mr. President." Eisenhower replied.
Roosevelt, of course, wanted to strengthen his communication with the Soviet Union, and his sugar-coated shells were enough for all Bolshevik fighters to experience GC life in advance......
"That's great." Lieutenant General Limowski thought to himself that if he could do it, he would be able to come to the United States more often in the future. "I think that as long as you formally propose it, our General Secretary, Comrade Stalin, will definitely agree. He supported any action that would benefit the world's anti-Nazi and anti-fascist cause. If I had been consulted above, I would have agreed. (To be continued.) )
