Hearing this, Kotin was quite dissatisfied.

In his eyes, the T-34 does not need to be produced at all, as long as his KV-1 tank is enough! However, since the last time that dead ghost Koshkin drove the tank himself and ran to Moscow, Stalin and others have been impressed with the T-34 tank.

After that, this tank became a key project of the Soviets, and Kotin could only rely on his own power to constantly suppress the opponent, so that the opponent has not completed mass production until now.

If the KV-1 tank had made a huge contribution in this war with Finland, it is conceivable that there would be nothing with the T-34. However, who would have thought that the Germans actually intervened and did not know that the other side used it. What kind of a powerful weapon, it actually beats your own KV-1 tank!

That is more than a hundred millimeters thick armor! How did the Germans do it?

Now, if you want to win, you can only rely on quantity. If it depends on quantity, then KV-1 can only stand aside, and only T-34 will definitely become the mainstream!

No, of course not!

"Comrade Mareshev, the T-34 tank has not yet been mass-produced. They still have a lot of work to do, and they simply can't keep up with our war." Of course, Kotin strongly opposed.

Unexpectedly, Maryshev did not evade. He continued: "The Kharkiv factory has made all the preparations. As long as the raw materials are in place, the Kharkiv factory alone will be able to produce One thousand T-34 tanks are coming! The subsequent expansion of production capacity can double to two thousand. If we are going to win with quantity, T-34 tanks are the most suitable choice."

"So, Comrade Kejing, do you have any other plans? How much is the output of KV-1 in one month?"

Kejing doesn't speak anymore. If you compare the output, of course, the production process of T-34 is too simple!

"Okay, let the T-34 be put into production quickly, Kojing, this is our current top priority, and we must make every effort to ensure the production of the Kharkov factory!" Stalin said: "We want to defeat Finland!"

Stalin made the decision. He knew that Kotin had been obstructing them. He knew clearly about the activities of these subordinates. Now, it is to warn Kotin. Now, the country's center of gravity is T-34, and it must not be a stumbling block. !

"Yes." Kotin could only agree.

Stalin still did not relax much. The production of tanks and the equipping of troops all took time. It seems that the Finns can only be arrogant for a while, and wait until a large number of T-34 tanks are on the way to let the Finns know that the Soviets can Not to be bullied!

Mareshev was also relieved. After his struggles, finally, tank manufacturing must return to the right track. The most correct choice is to give priority to the production of T-34.

At the same time, this can be regarded as an explanation for Koshkin!

Last time, in order to show the leaders the excellent performance of the T-34 tank, Koshkin braved the snow and drove the tank to Moscow in cold weather, and then drove back.

After that, he contracted a cold and severe pneumonia, so Koshkin has passed away.

This is a great loss for the Soviets!

Koshkin left, his tank project must not be aborted! Although it has been purged, there are still people with integrity.

Kharkov factory.

"The superior's order has come down, asking our factory to produce T-34 tanks immediately!" Upon receiving the telegram, the person in charge of the factory, Morozov, shouted loudly.

After Koshkin's departure, Koshkin's assistant, Morozov, took over his job and continued to lead the design and production of the T-34 tank. Unfortunately, the official documents from the higher authorities were not available.

It’s not like Lower Tagil here. The Ural Mountains are nearby. There are plenty of ore. It’s just an assembly line to produce steel and tanks.

All the raw materials needed here need to be transported by rail. Without the import of steel, they would not be able to make anything.

Now, the official order has come down, and the T-34 will be produced at full speed!

The whole factory boiled in an instant. They have been waiting for this day for a long time!

Almost at the same time as the document arrived, the smoking train moved into the factory platform, and the raw materials needed for production had been transported!

start!

The entire factory has entered a high-strength working state, melting steel, casting turrets, cold-rolled steel plates, and welding car bodies. They have modified the production line beforehand. Now, they are waiting for the formal production!

This is simply a miracle. The Soviets had to wait for weapons produced in the rear when they were attacking Finland!

The war between the Soviet Union and Finland fell into a short halt, and on another battlefield, in the hot North Africa, a big march is in full swing.

This kind of offense is simply against common sense.

Just after landing, the advance troops of the German African Army, the 66th Tank Battalion, charged at the forefront!

The tracks of the tank are crushing the land of Libya~www.novelhall.com~The dust is rolling. With unstoppable strength, they killed the British regiment that appeared suddenly, and then continued to advance towards Tubrug.

There is an important port in Libya. Before being occupied by the British, part of the oil was exported from Tubrug.

Just a tank battalion!

Of course, behind them, there was the Italian army, but unfortunately, the Italian army was too slow. It has been walking slowly and leisurely behind the German army for several kilometers.

"Charge, charge!" Karl Maus stood on his tank, showing half of his body, facing the yellow sand, his mood at this time was excited.

dash forward!

The tank's engine was emitting black smoke, and it passed the enlarged radiator engine without overheating. In this way, when it was about to get dark, they rushed to Tubrug!

Now, here is silent, and in the history of later generations, the battle that broke out here is a very important battle in the entire North African campaign! Rommel was able to continue to advance towards Egypt if he got this place, and the British army could create conditions for the counterattack by holding on to it.

From Benghazi to the east, Tubrug is the only deep-water port available. Without this, the 1,500 tons of water and supplies that Rommel needs every day would have to be transported by truck along the desert from Benghazi or even further from Lipoli.

Just one logistical provision is enough to explain the importance here.

Historically, the British deployed heavy troops here.

Now, unlike in history, the British have suffered heavy losses. There are not many British teams in North Africa. Will the sudden German attack bring miraculous effects, gnawing down the hard bones that Rommel has gnawed for more than seven months?

There is desolate land everywhere. To the west of Tubrug, there is a low **** of soil, and scattered weeds grow bleakly here.
