As the war progressed, the Soviets were almost fully mobilized, and armed forces had already been organized in various factories, such as the Stalingrad Tractor Factory, which had a workers' self-defense force of more than 100 people, who had been issued Mosin Nagant rifles by their superiors, ready to give their lives for the defense of the factories.

They are mainly formed by the personnel of the security department in the factory, after all, although the other workers are also trained, they are usually mainly worked, and they are almost around the clock.

Bondarenko is the former head of the security section in the factory, and the current captain of the workers' self-defense team.

When he heard Mikhailov's order, Bondarenko on the side was also unequivocal: "Yes, I immediately went to assemble the workers' self-defense forces, that Khrushchev actually dared to surrender, we rushed into the command headquarters and arrested him!" ”

He also hated it so much, such a person was so hateful that he actually wanted to lead the entire city to surrender!

"Wait." Just then, another person called out to him.

Army representative Sergeyev.

In every military factory in the Soviets, there are military representatives, and if there is no signature of the military representatives, then the army will not accept all kinds of military products, so the military representatives are definitely a fat poor, and the factories must have good relations with the military representatives.

But in the Soviets, this military representative was not a good errand, and while holding the power to sign, the military representative was also responsible for the military product, and once the military product had a performance defect, the military representative was definitely the first to be unlucky.

Especially after Stalin came to power, the Great Purge, I don't know how many military representatives followed with bad luck.

The military representative, on behalf of the military, Sergeyev was a captain, and as a soldier, he was also quite indignant at Khrushchev's surrender, but he also knew that it was not possible to do so.

"There are only a few of you, a few guns, do you know how many people are in the headquarters? You have passed like this, you can't walk to the door of the headquarters, and you were suddenly killed by a few Makqin outside, and now Khrushchev is bent on surrendering to the enemy, and he has long been prepared, and if you go like this, you will be sent to death. Sergeyev said.

Sergeyev is right, Mikhailov knows that he is in too much of a hurry, but now, apart from organizing an armed insurrection and putting things right, what else can be done?

The military representative Sergeyev was sent only a few months ago, although he has only been working together for a few months, he has already shown his talent, he is not greedy for money, he does not show favoritism, and he has no arrogance, almost cooperating with each other to increase the production of tanks here to the maximum.

After a few months of work, everyone respected Sergeyev very much and cooperated tacitly.

Now, Sergeyev, although he is a member of the army, is also on the same side as them: "We have to think of a different way. ”

Something else? So what else can be done? Mikhailov seriously thought about it, if he did not attack the headquarters, then he could only find a way to lure Khrushchev out.

"In my opinion, it is better for us to superficially agree with Khrushchev's defection to the enemy, and at the same time tell Khrushchev that the newly produced tanks in our factory are waiting for acceptance, and now they are just handed over to the Germans, and we have also painted the cross mark, so that Khrushchev will definitely be quite happy, and maybe he will come to our factory to inspect." Sergeyev said.

That's a brilliant idea! Hearing this, Mikhailov was quite excited: "Then it will be done, but will Khrushchev himself come?" ”

It is necessary to control Khrushchev himself to do it, after all, he must have taken the initiative to surrender to the enemy, and those officers below are all going with the flow, and if someone stands up, they will definitely be silent on the sidelines, paying attention to the progress of the situation, and the two will not help each other.

In the army, there are certainly not many people who want to surrender, everyone is watching, as long as Khrushchev is arrested, everything will be settled.

So, the question remains, will Khrushchev himself come?

"We have no choice but to gamble, if he doesn't come, we'll drive the tank over!" Sergeyev said.

Shelling the headquarters, but also to kill Khrushchev, only in this way can Stalingrad be saved, continue to hold on, surrender is definitely the most cowardly person can do it!

Although there is an extreme shortage of fuel, the factory still needs fuel when the tank is tested, and there are some in reserve, so that at least a dozen tanks can be started and go to the headquarters.

At the same time, according to Sergeyev's judgment, Khrushchev is likely to come, because now, he is also eagerly observing the reaction of his subordinates, if he takes the initiative to cater to Khrushchev, he will definitely win Khrushchev's favor, in order to continue to build momentum for surrender, maybe he will come, as long as he comes, he will have a chance!

Start arranging now, it can't be too late, the situation, the sooner Khrushchev is controlled, the better it is to re-invigorate confidence.

"Jingle bells." Inside the headquarters, the phone rang.

Khrushchev's eyes looked out of the window, he had already stated the great relationship, the soldiers below, there was no movement, and the citizens, there was no movement, I don't know what these people thought?

Khrushchev needs to respond, he wants to surrender the whole city to Germany, he needs to know what others think, the war has been fought so far, seeing that the Soviet Union cannot win, at this time, Stalingrad is facing destruction again, it is said that the status quo should be recognized.

God knows if these people are a tendon, though.

But until now, there have been no subordinate troops to besiege the headquarters, and no citizens have come out to march, and it seems that they have acquiesced, and it would be nice to light another fire.

Just thinking about it, the assistant said: "Comrade Khrushchev, your phone. ”

Khrushchev said: "Is it superior or inferior? ”

What if Stalin called? God knows where those high-ranking officials in Moscow have gone now.

"It's our tractor factory, and they want to report to you on what's going on in the factory."

Tractor factory? Khrushchev took the phone strangely and heard an excited voice over there: "Comrade Khrushchev, after receiving your speech, we, the workers of the tractor factory, agree with your proposal, we have done our best to defend the Soviets, and now we are doing this so that we can live better." ”

Suddenly, Khrushchev's face was happy, the tractor factory was an important factory in Stalingrad, and it would be easy to do it if these workers expressed their attitude.

"We are going to dedicate all the tanks produced in our factory to Germany, and now we are painting the tanks with a cross..."

Dedicate tanks to the Germans? Khrushchev suddenly patted his thigh excitedly: "It's really good!" Your factory will definitely be able to receive more orders in the future, and the life of the workers will be better! ”
