Then, the soldiers were brought into the production workshop by the colonel for a visit.

Of course, not everyone rushed up, but lined up in a neat formation with the battalion as the unit, and went to visit under the leadership of the colonel.

Shuerka's battalion is the first battalion, and this designation makes them honored to be the first batch of visiting troops.

The colonel walked ahead, walking from the side of an open gate that was tens of meters wide.

An engineer came up and shook hands with the colonel, then took the trumpet in the colonel's hand and shouted: "Comrades, I am the person in charge here, Sisoy, and I will lead you to the production of T34 tanks!"

Then, Sisoy led the troops forward like a tour guide, explaining as he advanced: "The T34 tank is divided into three parts. The driver and the electromechanical operator are located in the front of the hull, the middle of the hull on the fighting compartment, and the rear of the hull. Equipped with engine and transmission…”

Actually, it might be useful to talk to the tank soldiers, but most of the 333rd regiment are infantry who don't even understand the fighting compartment and transmission.

But this does not affect the soldiers to visit.

In the workshop, there are neatly lined up tanks waiting to be assembled, being assembled, or assembled. Workers and tank soldiers are busy inside... As the colonel said, the tank soldiers are learning from the workers to deal with simple failures.

When did the soldiers see such a big scene, they couldn't help but let out a burst of admiration.

However, after a period of "fascination", they quickly thought of the main point:

"Comrade Sisoy!" asked a soldier, "It is said that our tanks are better than the German tanks, isn't it?"

"Yes!" Hisoi nodded with a proud expression and replied: "I mean the T34 tank, which can easily penetrate the enemy's 'No. "Tank, and the enemy must be at least 100 meters away to penetrate the T34 frontal armor!"

(Note: The 76MMF34 cannon equipped with the 1941 T34 can penetrate a 69mm homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 500 meters and a 61mm steel plate at a distance of 1000 meters)

Then the problem comes...

"Then why are German tanks rampaging across the battlefield?"

Sisoi's head immediately turned from high to low when he heard this question. He didn't know how to answer this question, so he turned his eyes to the colonel for help.

"I've already said the reason, you idiot!" The colonel replied: "You should pay attention, this is why the superior sent you here to visit!"

This explanation seems reasonable, but Shulka knows that this is only one of the reasons.

When he walked to the middle, Sissoy gave the soldiers a little free time, and at the same time took this opportunity to meet the tank soldiers.

Shuerka is not interested in this. While others were talking enthusiastically, he walked up to a tank being assembled and looked up and down... It is not a common opportunity to enter the workshop to watch the production of tanks up close.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Hisoi asked Shulka: "You seem very interested in it!"

"Yes, Comrade Sisoy!" Shulka replied.

"Look, they are installing the antenna!" Sissoy explained: "So that the inside of the tank can receive the radio signal from outside!"

"Not all tanks have equipment?" Shulka asked casually, but he already knew the answer.

"No, of course not!" Hisoy replied: "Only the command vehicle is installed. We don't have so many radio equipment, and we can't install it on every tank!"

"Comrade Sisoy, don't you think there's something wrong with that?" Shulka asked.

"Problem?" Sissoy replied, "Of course there is a problem, it will make it difficult for the tanks to fight together, but this problem is solved to some extent... a smart guy, he thought of a way to connect an external telephone This is really a pioneering work, isn't it? I heard that he is only a sergeant, it is hard to imagine that a sergeant can think of such a good method!"

"He's a second lieutenant now!" Shulka said.

"Oh, really?" Hisoey said, "What a lucky guy!"

Shuerka was a little ridiculous. He didn't expect that his reputation had already spread to the tank factory.

"But that's not what I'm talking about, Comrade Sisoy!"

"What's the problem?" Hisoy looked at Shulka suspiciously.

"Antenna!" Shulka raised his head towards the towering antenna that the workers were installing.

"Antenna problem? You mean it's broken?"

Shulka almost sprayed blood on the ceiling. If the engineers only focus on technical issues like Sisoy, then the Soviet army will be sad.

"Comrade Sisoy!" Shulka said: "If you were a German and you saw this tank and there was an antenna on it, what would you think of?"

"No, comrade! I'm not German!" Sissoy looked serious and a little panicked: "I can prove that I have documents... There are many people who can prove it!"

This is Shulka's fault. He forgot that there are many German spies in the Soviet army, and the Soviet army is conducting a large-scale investigation, so this kind of joke cannot be made casually.

The colonel seemed to notice the situation here, so he leaned over and asked, "What are you discussing?"

"Colonel!" Sissoy grabbed the colonel as if he had found a rescuer and said, "Comrade Second Lieutenant thinks I am German, you can prove it..."

The colonel cast doubtful eyes on Shulka and said, "Did you recognize the wrong person, Second Lieutenant?"

Shulka was a little speechless.

"The problem is the antenna, Colonel!" Shulka said, "If you were a German, and you saw this tank, and it had an antenna, what would you think?"

At this moment, Sissoy exclaimed: "Colonel, he suspects that you are also a German!"

Shuerka helplessly spread his hand at the colonel.

The colonel seemed to understand something, and then burst out laughing "haha".

Then the expression became serious again.

"That's right, Lieutenant!" said the colonel. "They'll see it's a command vehicle right away!"

"Yes!" Shulka said: "Then it will become the main target of the enemy!"

"So, how do we solve this problem?" The colonel touched his chin habitually.

"What's the problem?" Hisoy was still a little confused.

"Comrade Sisoy!" The colonel explained: "The antenna will reveal that this tank is a command vehicle, and it will become the focus of the enemy's attack! What the second lieutenant said..."

Hisoi couldn't help but let out an "oh", patted his head and then relaxed.

This made Shulka shake his head secretly. No wonder some people say that scientists are lunatics and paranoid.
