In fact, this cannot be blamed for Feng Boke.

Because as a commander of an army group, Feng Boke is more concerned about strategic issues. He is not likely to learn about a new equipment, especially this equipment is just a single weapon... If it is a new tank, he is still willing to learn about it.

Therefore, Feng Boke took it for granted that this MP43 was a submachine gun, and it was unimaginable to replace the rifle with a submachine gun in the army.

So an hour later, Colonel Slein appeared in Feng Bock's command with Qin Chuan and Colonel Conrad.

Feng Boke reviewed the documents while looking up at the three people standing in front of him. As soon as he withdrew his gaze, he noticed that one of them was wearing a Knight's Cross in the middle of his collar. Then he looked at Qin Chuan in surprise and asked, "You are..."

"Captain Frick, the company commander of the 1st Battalion 2nd Company, and the marshal!" Qin Chuan replied loudly.

At first, Feng Boke didn't realize anything, but after a while he suddenly remembered something, and pointed his fingers in the void a few times and asked, "You are the... 'Legend Sergeant'?"

"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Very good!" Feng Boke closed the documents, got up and walked to several people, raising the documents in his hands and asked, "You are all heroes who have been through the battlefield. So please tell me why they decided to replace the rifle with submachine guns without authorization? Do you think the battlefield in the future will be like you in the Battle of Holm? There is a line of defense full of ice and snow with a height difference of several meters, waiting for the Soviets to charge at you in groups of people?"

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency Marshal!" Colonel Slein was a little unhappy after hearing these words from Von Bock: "The Battle of Holm is not as simple as you said. We have to face a large number of tanks from the enemy, and we don't even have the necessary anti-tank equipment in our hands. We can almost say that we use our bodies and blood to stop them from moving forward!"

When Feng Bock heard this, he realized that he had lost his words. Holm was a national sensational battle, and this battle was also a typical example of unity and cooperation by the media for the German army... Soldiers from 60 units fought together there and finally won the victory.

So it is indeed a bit inappropriate for Feng Bock to say this.

"I just want to know the reason!" said Feng Bock: "When we desperately replenish tanks and cannons, you ask for bullets and submachine gun bullets!"

"In fact, that's not a submachine gun, Lord Marshal!" Conrad replied: "That's our new equipment, MP43!"

"What is it?" Feng Bock asked back.

Conrad couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't know if it was a good thing to explain this matter too clearly. After all, they "deceived" the head of state to produce this equipment by hiding the truth.

"It can also be said to be a rifle!" Qin Chuan replied: "A rifle that can be fired continuously!"

Feng Bock looked at Qin Chuan, then looked at Conrad, and soon became a little impatient.

"Whatever it is!" said Feng Bock: "I don't care about this. What we need more is tanks. Do you understand? Tanks!"

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency Marshal!" Qin Chuan said: "What is the purpose of our need for tanks?"

"What did you say?" Feng Bock couldn't believe that a captain dared to speak to him in such an attitude.

"It's just for victory, right?" Qin Chuan said: "And if our rifle is used properly, it may exert its combat power stronger than the tank and finally win. Why don't we?"

Feng Boke couldn't help laughing, and asked back with disdain on his face: "What do you mean... will this rifle play a more important role than a tank?"

"Maybe!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Can it block the enemy's bullets?" asked Von Bock.

"No, it can't!"

"Can it break through the armor of enemy tanks?"

"No!" Qin Chuan shook his head.

"Or it can blow up the enemy's bunker!"

"Of course not!"

"So why can it play a more important role than a tank?" Feng Bock said with a hint of anger.

"Because it can bring us victory, Mr. Marshal!" Qin Chuan replied.

"Very good!" Seeing that Qin Chuan had been refusing to surrender, Feng Boke thought for a while and said, "How about we make a bet, Captain?"

Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned. He thought that the bet would not be too simple, but now there seems to be no way out, so he stood up and said, "I have no objection, Your Excellency Marshal!"

Feng Bock turned his attention to Colonel Slein. Colonel Slein looked at Qin Chuan, and then stood up and said, "I have no objection, Mr. Marshal!"

"Very good!" Feng Bock nodded and said, "If you win, I will give priority to your supply application. Not only that, it will also provide you with more ammunition and supplies, but if you lose... do you know what to do?"

Colonel Slain stepped forward and said, "We will exchange the rifle for the back!"

"Hmm!" Feng Bock responded, walked back to his desk and picked up his pen to sign a pass, handed it to Colonel Slein and explained: "Three days later you will bring the troops to General Manstein to report. Maybe you have heard that he was in some trouble. As the captain said... If that rifle can play a more important role than a tank, you should be able to solve this problem, right?"

Upon hearing this, Colonel Slain couldn't help but widen his eyes: "But Your Excellency Marshal..."

"Are you going to give up?" Von Bock interrupted Colonel Slein.

Colonel Slain hesitated and replied, "No, Mr. Marshal, we are willing to give it a try!"

"Very good!" said Feng Bock: "You can leave now!"

As soon as he walked out of the command center, Qin Chuan asked curiously: "What's the situation? Is it very troublesome?"

"Of course!" Conrad interrupted: "General Manstein's 11th Army is attacking the Crem Peninsula!"

Hearing Qin Chuan on the Crem Peninsula, he couldn't help but say "Oh".

Of course he knew this famous battle... The Krim Peninsula is located below Kiev, and the terrain explored into the Black Sea like a hook, which means that the continent is surrounded by the sea on one side, which is an easy to defend and difficult to attack.

More importantly, the Crim Peninsula is located behind the German defense line, and has as many troops as three groups of troops... A considerable number of the Soviet troops were fled to the Crim Peninsula to resist stubbornly.
