Steel Soviet Union

In any case, AK has finally been approved to enter mass production, which is definitely a good thing for Malashenko, who has been busy and worried about this matter.

On the other hand, Ke Jing was finally able to let go of his hanging heart. There is no need to worry about whether one day you will be suddenly taken away to a farmhouse in Siberia for a lifetime trip with no return.

Not to mention what rewards he received for this, Ke Jing did not ask for these things at all. As long as one of his own people is fine and will not be punished for this, it is great news for Ke Jing.

In the end, the person most affected by this incident was Kalashnikov, who had always followed Malashenko's wishes.

If we go by existing history, Kalashnikov would not have had any significant performance that could be recorded in history throughout World War II. Although it also came up with some good designs during World War II, these designs had more or less problems, or they were not as good as those of their competitors and lost in the competition.

The emergence of Malashenko put Kalashnikov on the right track ahead of time, pushing forward the design that was originally postponed for several years before formal mass production and installation, and gave Kalashnikov a chance. Fulfilling his lifelong wish: to let the weapons he designed contribute to the battle to defend the motherland.

As soon as the news of Moscow's approval came, Kalashnikov was officially discovered by the superiors and was about to be reused.

The master leads you in. Cultivation is personal.

Malashenko is not Kalashnikov's master, at least Malashenko himself thinks that he is definitely not. He is just taking what Kalashnikov could have done and using it to hide his identity as a time traveler in future generations. It only took a few years.

After all, this credit belongs to Kalashnikov personally. Malashenko has never thought about it and will never take it.

However, Malashenko still showed support and guidance to Kalashnikov, and was the one who helped fulfill his lifelong wish.

Kalashnikov has to take the next step, and Malashenko has to let go and let Kalashnikov really go on his own.

Malashenko believes that this will never be a good thing for Kalashnikov if he remains attached to his own influence and shadow for a long time.

What Malashenko really hopes is that Kalashnikov can become famous in the world of small arms with his own strength and talent after introducing him and putting him on the real stage, just like in the existing history. Developing one design after another that has been praised by the world has been Malashenko's idea from the beginning to this day.

"Soon you will go to Moscow and you will be assigned to the place you have always wanted to be, your real stage."

"The new assault rifle named after you is just the beginning. I believe you will have more outstanding designs that will shine all over the world in the future. You must also believe in yourself. 6̳̳People who are not confident will never achieve anything, don't Forget your original dreams and pursuits, and carry them with you along the way, and you will eventually reach the other side of realizing your dreams and lifelong values.”

When Kalashnikov, carrying his suitcase, was about to board the train and say goodbye on the platform, Malashenko, who came with Kotin to see Kalashnikov off, sent the above parting words. , I hope this will be of some help to the young Kalashnikov on his next journey.

One is Bole who lifted himself out of obscurity and gave himself a chance to realize his dream.

The other is a benefactor who gave me a stage to display my talents and allowed my dreams to come closer to reality with unconditional cooperation and support.

Facing Malashenko and Kotin, who showed great kindness to him, the young and simple Kalashnikov was almost moved to tears.

The sparkling tears in the corners of his eyes were not only filled with gratitude and excitement, but also the attachment to these two people in front of him who would never be forgotten by him after this not-too-long but precious time together. Reluctant to give up.

"I, I, I really don't know what to say at this time. I am really excited and want to cry. I don't know why, but I have never felt this way, never!"

The young Kalashnikov is vigorous and full of hope and vitality that is aggressive and will not give up easily. Malashenko is sure that he can see the shadow of the future Soviet small arms designer in this young man of similar age to himself. .

Kalashnikov will still be the world-famous Kalashnikov, the gun king who can make the weapons he designs available to the world. Giving such a young man courage and confidence is what Malashenko must do now.

"I understand how you feel now, but there is no need to think about these unnecessary things, Kalashnikov."

"You only need to do what you should do. Doing it well is the best reward for the motherland, Leader Stalin, Comrade Kotin and me. Always believe that you have the ability to overcome any difficulties, because this is not just what you believe, I always believe it.”

"We will meet again, and when we meet next time, you have to come up with better and more outstanding works to show us your achievements. Comrade Ke Jing and I, we will always pay attention to your news and support And rooting for you, always."

The train slowly started to accelerate amidst the banging sound of the rails, and Kalashnikov was taken away with him. He leaned half of his body out of the window and tried his best to move toward Malashenko and Co. on the platform. Kyo's figure waved goodbye.

"I still find it unbelievable that such a crazy thing could actually be done!? In fact, I have tried to do this countless times, after it has already started. Sometimes I really regret it more and more. I feel like I’m going to indemnify myself, haven’t you ever been worried or scared at all?”

Walking with Kotin on the bustling platform and preparing to go back, Malashenko, who smiled calmly, gave the answer directly to Kotin, who was beside him and asked in disbelief.

"If I want to say that I wasn't afraid at all from beginning to end, then you must think I'm lying."

"To be honest, even when I approached you about cooperation, I felt a little scared and unsure. But I still chose to believe in Kalashnikov. I can see hope for the future in him. He has the talent to realize his dreams and the courage to make them happen, if only we can give him some help.”

"Look, haven't we done it now?"

"Just imagine, Comrade Kotin. How many Red Army soldiers will survive this cruel war because of the new assault rifle equipment!"

"They are not only soldiers of the motherland, but also mothers, wives, children, and the most important relatives of our brothers and sisters. Our motherland has lost so many outstanding young people. They should be alive. We are just doing our best. Let them finally return to the life they deserve.”

"I am very sure that many years later, as some expired secrets are gradually revealed and made public. Your and my names will be recorded in history together with Kalashnikov. Maybe the children in the classroom will read and recite it. Our deeds.”

"At that time, countless future generations will know. It was the three of them who jointly saved the lives of countless martyrs of the Patriotic War, dealt a heavier blow to the Fascist invaders, and contributed to the peace of all mankind. He has made outstanding contributions to the cause and deserves to be remembered forever.”
