Wang Xuexin divided the unit into two parts for training: one was the T34 unit and the other was the T26 unit.
Needless to say why they need to be trained separately, the two tanks are completely different in terms of speed, firepower and defense, and their tactics and targets after entering the battlefield cannot be the same.
For example, the top speed of t34 is 60 to 70 kilometers per hour, while the top speed of t26 is only 30 kilometers per hour.
For another example, the target of T34 should obviously be the Japanese Type 97, while the opponent of T26 is undoubtedly the Type 95 and Japanese infantry.
So Wang Xuexin was a little confused, how could Mao Xiong mix these tanks together to fight... Apart from other things, the speed difference is so big, how can they coordinate when they are mixed together? How can they keep pace when charging? How can they form a formation when chasing the enemy?
Isn't this nonsense?
So the world defines the Mao Xiong as a "country that doesn't know how to fight." It's really no wonder that it is so.
Wang Xuexin doesn't need to worry about these.
Wang Xuexin decided to be responsible for the training of T34 himself, because the T34 unit was definitely more important, and then asked staff officer Chen Songyong to be responsible for the T26 part.
But Chen Songyong panicked as soon as he heard this order.
"Battal Commander!" Chen Songyong said in embarrassment: "If you ask me to train infantry, then I have nothing to say. I will bring you a unit that can defend and attack within two months, but you ask me to train tank units...
It’s not that I’m unhappy, it’s just that I’ve never done it before and don’t know how to practice, so I’m worried about bringing down this unit!”
The commanders of this era are quite good in this regard. To be precise, the commanders of the Eighth Route Army have such characteristics. They are from workers, peasants and soldiers. They are relatively simple.
Fat man.
After a pause, Chen Songyong continued: "How about we delay the training of t26 for one day? I'll see how you practice first, and then copy it the next day..."
Wang Xuexin interrupted Chen Songyong: "If the training of t34 can be the same as that of t26, would I still want you to come?"
At this point, Chen Songyong was confused: "Aren't these all tanks? Why are they different!"
Wang Xuexin explained: "The T34 is fast and has strong firepower, so it emphasizes mobility and tank guerrilla warfare, while the T26 is slow and has relatively weak firepower, so it emphasizes a steady and steady attack!"
Chen Songyong scratched his head and replied with a hint of understanding: "Look, battalion commander, I just said I don't know how! I don't have any clue in my heart, otherwise... you can try someone else! I don't have that diamond."
, I don’t dare to take this porcelain job!”
Wang Xuexin thought about it and thought it was right. Although the training of T26 tanks is not that important, it is indeed inappropriate to train someone who has never been exposed to tanks and does not know the concept of tank combat.
But Wang Xuexin couldn't be divided, so it was impossible to train two different troops at the same time. Even if he was exhausted, he wouldn't be able to train them!
At this time Wang Xuexin thought of Androvitch.
He should be a good candidate. After all, he is a man who has driven tanks and fought in Mao Xiong, and is very familiar with T26... Wang Xuexin heard that Androvich has been driving T26 for a long time, and has also participated in Normen
I must be familiar with the Japanese tactics since the Battle of Han.
This may be one of the reasons why Mao Xiong sent Androvich to serve as the head of the advisory group.
In fact, it was not just Androvich, nearly half of the dozen or so tank soldiers under his command had participated in the Battle of Nomonhan.
Thinking of this, Wang Xuexin felt a pity. The advisory group originally had thirty-two people, but because of Androvich's meaningless "bravery", fifteen people were lost when a Japanese plane bombed them, leaving only seventeen.
people.
Seven of them are tank crews, while the others are technicians and maintenance personnel.
Maozi’s heart is really fucking big.
If it were full strength, it would be very easy to lead the T26 troops. Now both technical personnel and training personnel are somewhat stretched.
Another problem is that Wang Xuexin told Androvich not to worry about training and only need to take care of the tank's control training and maintenance. Now...
After hesitating for a while, Wang Xuexin still asked someone to find Androvich.
Wang Xuexin said to Androvich with some embarrassment: "Comrade Captain, it's like this... I plan to divide the tank unit into two parts for training. We are currently short of manpower. I hope you can help train the T26 part. I don't know what you mean...
…”
"No, no, no!" Androvich refused without thinking: "I only care about control and maintenance, other aspects are not my responsibility!"
Androvich raised his eyebrows when he said this, obviously intending to avenge his previous revenge.
Wang Xuexin said "uh" and said: "If you burn a pound of sweet potatoes every day..."
Androvich's eyes immediately lit up: "No, at least three pounds, three pounds a day! My subordinates need it too!"
"Two pounds!"
"No!" Androvich slapped his hands on the table like a clumsy black bear, stared at Wang Xuexin with an unquestionable look and said: "It must be three kilograms, you have no room for bargaining, comrade battalion commander! Time left for you.
There’s not much left, isn’t there?”
Wang Xuexin didn't know how Androvich saw it.
There is indeed not much time left for the Eighth Route Army.
Because Wang Xuexin planned to launch an attack when the Japanese launched the "Guan Special Exercise", the Japanese troops in China were relatively empty at that time. After capturing Yuncheng, the Japanese did not have many troops or aircraft to recapture it... The Japanese were there during the "Guan Special Exercise".
The Huaxia region is on the defensive and only maintains basic troops everywhere. They hope to concentrate the main force and equipment in the northeast to launch a fatal blow to the bear.
Therefore, the time left for Wang Xuexin is likely to be only about two months.
What Wang Xuexin didn't know was that Androvich didn't actually see this.
If Androvich saw this, he might be even more anxious than Wang Xuexin, because it means that whether the Eighth Route Army can contain the Japanese is directly related to Mao Xiong's vital interests.
The reason why Androvich said this at this time was because he intuitively felt that Wang Xuexin was in such a hurry to train because he must have a fight, so he made a casual guess to give himself more bargaining chips in order to have a drink.
"Okay!" Wang Xuexin replied helplessly: "Three pounds a day, but you must train according to my plan. At the same time, Comrade Chen Songyong will train with you!"
In fact, Wang Xuexin asked Chen Songyong to study, or it could be said to be to monitor, to prevent Androvich from leading the T26 unit astray.
Androvich thought about it, he also wanted to learn Wang Xuexin's training methods and report to the general counsel, so of course he had to know Wang Xuexin's plan.
So without thinking, he nodded and said, "No problem, but I have one more request."
"What are the requirements?" Wang Xuexin asked.
Androvich replied: "I will arrange for my subordinates to train T26. Don't worry, Petroevsky is my deputy and he can do a good job. And I will train T34 with you!"
