Chapter 1137: Surrender (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
In the mind of General Temoshenko, several thoughts turned. He could see that Major General Korobkov really wanted to surrender. This is undoubtedly an opportunity for him.
"Comrade Korobkov, if those political workers knew what you thought, they would definitely arrest you and shoot you without trial!" General Timoshenko said.
"If you continue to fight the Germans, it will also be a dead end. It's all dead anyway, so it's better to play a game. Perhaps, there will be a glimmer of life. Besides, I'm not going to sit still. Major General Korobkov said.
General Timoshenko nodded, knowing that Korobkov was determined to surrender to the Germans.
"If Major General Golubev can get involved, then the matter will be feasible." General Timoshenko said.
Major General Golubev was the commander of the 10th Army of the Russian Army. The 10th Army was a strong group army, more than the 4th Army, under the jurisdiction of the 1st and 5th Infantry Armies, the 6th and 13th Mechanized Armies, the 6th Cavalry Army, and the 155th Infantry Division. Although in the previous battles, the 10th Army also suffered heavy losses. However, the remnants of the strength of the Russian army in Smolensk can be regarded as the largest army group.
Major General Korobkov was stunned at first, and then happy. He could already hear what General Timoshenko meant from his words. That is, General Timoshenko seems to have agreed with him. This is undoubtedly a great thing for him. With the support of General Timoshenko, many things will be much easier.
"Comrade Commander, Comrade Golubev, I'm afraid the commander will have to persuade you. I think that at this point, Comrade Golubev will definitely make the right choice! Major General Korobkov said.
General Temoshenko thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Comrade commander, I will immediately organize my henchmen when I go back, and as soon as you give the order, I will arrest those guys!" Major General Korobkov said excitedly.
"Okay, I'll summon Comrade Golubev right away." General Timoshenko said.
Immediately after the departure of Major General Korobkov, General Timoshenko asked the secretary to call Major General Golubev.
Soon, Major General Golubev rushed to the office of General Timoshenko.
General Timoshenko told everything to Major General Golubev, and he was not afraid that Major General Golubev would go to Gaomi, because Major General Golubev could be regarded as his old subordinate. In addition, the current situation is such that if it were not for the surrender of the Germans, everyone would have ended up with a dead end. Therefore, based on General Timoshenko's understanding of Major General Golubev, he believed that Major General Golubev would definitely make the right choice.
In fact, that's exactly what happened. Major General Golubev did not want to die either. With almost no hesitation, he agreed to cooperate. As soon as the 4th Army is launched, he will also order the arrest of those political workers.
Regarding Major General Golubev's statement, General Timoshenko was very satisfied. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, General Timoshenko decided to start the operation tomorrow.
After receiving the order of General Timoshenko, the commander of the 4th Army of the Russian Army, Major General Korobkov, first ordered the arrest of those political workers in the army. At the same time, lead the henchmen to the headquarters of the front. And the commander of the 10th Army, Major General Golubev, gave the same order.
For a time, the political workers of the two main group armies of the Western Front were arrested.
The command of the Front, the troops led by Major General Korobkov, took over the defense here. Under the instructions of General Timoshenko, the guards of the headquarters did not resist.
Subsequently, Major General Korobkov led people directly into the office of the political commissar of the Front, Colonel-General Fominech.
Seeing Major General Korobkov rushing into his office with people, Admiral Forminekh's face suddenly changed drastically.
"Comrade Korobkov, what are you trying to do here? Bringing someone to storm the headquarters without permission is a capital crime! Fminekh was furious.
"Dear Comrade Political Commissar, it's a pity that your current order can't scare me!" Major General Korobkov sneered.
"Come on, arrest Comrade Political Commissar!" Major General Korobkov ordered.
"You dare!" Admiral Formineh shouted.
However, no one took him as a commissar in his eyes anymore, and those soldiers directly arrested him.
After being dragged out of the office, Colonel General Fominekh saw General Timoshenko.
"Comrade Commander, help me! These people are going to mutiny! Admiral Formineh shouted.
However, General Timoshenko did not even look at him.
Admiral Fomineh immediately knew that all this was led by General Timoshenko behind the scenes. He also guessed the intentions of General Timoshenko and the others at once.
"Timoshenko, how dare you betray Comrade Joseph and our party and country! Comrade Joseph will never let you go. Your family will all be hanged! Admiral Formineh scolded.
The faces of General Timoshengo and the others suddenly became not very good-looking. He knew that what Admiral Formineh said was true. Burussia has always been very strict with those who betray and surrender. Even if they can't be dealt with for a while, their families who remain in Buu will definitely suffer because of this. They were sent to Siberia to dig potatoes, or shot or hanged. Joseph is a man who will not say anything that will not harm his family. When he is crazy, he can do anything.
General Timoshenko knew that his family might die this time.
However, he was not reconciled to want him to stop. He's only in his forties now, and it's not worth it to die like this.
"Comrade Formineh, if our family had been killed by Joseph, I swear I would never have spared him! Someday, I'll kill him with my own hands! Timoshengo said through gritted teeth.
Admiral Fominekh was stunned, not knowing what to say. He knew that General Timoshenko was already determined to betray Burussia, and it was useless to say anything.
After arresting the political workers in the army and taking control of the army, General Timoshenko immediately sent people to contact the German side, hoping that the German side would accept their surrender.
General Timoshenko also did not know whether the Germans would accept them. However, this is the last way to survive.
