Stalingrad.

"Moscow is lost." Khrushchev's face was extremely gloomy, and now, the commanders of the defenders of Stalingrad had gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Khrushchev smoked a cigar and took a sip, and soon the whole room was filled with smoke.

Everyone is sad in their hearts, what does the loss of Moscow mean, do you need to say it?

"I heard that hundreds of thousands of defenders of Moscow were burned to death." It was Major General Rodimtsev, commander of the 13th Guards Division, who spoke, and his words were also low: "No one survived, they didn't even have corpses, they were all burned to ashes, just like our Ural industrial region." ”

"At the beginning, the bombing of Germany was a bad move, and we could have held on, but those guys in Moscow thought that they could use bombing to bring the Germans to their knees, and what happened? Now that the Germans have begun to use this terrible weapon of mass murder with impunity, it can be said that the next step of the Germans will definitely be against us! Lieutenant General Gulov also spoke, and his words were even more fearful.

Now, Moscow is gone, the Ural industrial region is gone, and the one who is still resisting is, of course, Stalingrad.

In addition to its geographical importance, the most prominent thing here is that it is a city named after a great leader, and it must have been blacklisted by the Germans for a long time.

In the past, no matter how they fought, they were not afraid, but now?

Now it's different, because the Germans won't come up and fight at all, the Germans will just use bombs to blow it up and burn everyone to death.

The others did not speak.

The commander of the 62nd Army, Lieutenant General Chuikov, did not speak, he knew in his heart that since Khrushchev came here, both Gulov and Rodimtsev had quickly fought with Khrushchev, and now, when the two said so, it meant Khrushchev.

Who would dare to say that without Khrushchev's affirmation? Khrushchev was ordered by Comrade Stalin to come here to supervise the army, and anyone who did not have a firm will to fight would be shot by Khrushchev.

Now, no one dared to say anything about retreating, and Chuikov was wondering in his heart, what did the two mean by saying this?

What did Khrushchev want to do?

Finally, Khrushchev poked the cigar in his hand into the ashtray beside him, and he slowly spoke.

"We can't win this war." As soon as Khrushchev's words came out, everyone was stunned, even Khrushchev said so?

"We are not afraid to fight, but we cannot die in the bombardment of the Germans, that would be the most stupid thing to do." Khrushchev said: "Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of citizens in the city, all of whom are innocent, and we cannot let them die together in the bombing of the Germans." ”

"Shall we retreat then?" Gulov said: "We retreated backwards, to the Ural Mountains, and continued to hold out in the war of resistance? ”

Khrushchev shook his head: "No, we are relying on the city now, and we can still hold on, as long as we leave the city, it will soon be wiped out, not to mention that we may encounter the Germans along the way, and even the Turks outside can catch up and bite us." We simply can't retreat. ”

You can't retreat, and if you stay here, you're waiting for death, so what's the solution?

At this time, suddenly, an idea had already crossed the head of Lieutenant General Chuikov, and in an instant he was stunned, and after a long time, it turned out that he was going to surrender!

So many of the reasons in front are all to pave the way for the final surrender?

Comrade Stalin, what a blind man, let Khrushchev lead the defense of the entire Stalingrad and rectify military discipline, but now, when the Soviets are in danger, the first to surrender is actually Khrushchev, which is simply a great irony.

Suddenly, Chuikov's eyes flashed with disdain, although he was promoted by Khrushchev, but now, in Chuikov's eyes, Khrushchev is a clown.

Chuikov was born in February 1900 in a peasant family in the village of Serebryaneprud in the Tula province. The poverty of his family led him to run away from home at the age of 12 and come to St. Petersburg to earn a living and start a life of self-reliance.

Later, in 1917, he worked as a cadet sailor in the Kronstadt mine-crew unit. The following year, after catching up with the great historical change of the October Revolution in Russia, he entered the Moscow Military Instructor Training Course of the Red Army and became the first cadet.

In particular, during the training class, Chuikov also met the great revolutionary leader Lenin and listened to his speech, which made Chuikov very excited. From that time on, the defense of the Soviets was Chuikov's strongest conviction.

Later, Chuikov grew up in the midst of war, he participated in the Civil War, and was awarded two Red Banner Medals. Later, he entered the Frunze Military Academy for further study. After completing his studies, he went to China in 1927 and served as a military adviser in China.

This was not until the Great Patriotic War began, and Chuikov finally returned to his homeland, and when he returned, he was ordered to come to Stalingrad and fight in the 64th Army.

Later, when Khrushchev took office, Chuikov was appointed commander of the 62nd Army, replacing General Lopatin, who believed that this army group could not hold Stalingrad.

At that time, Chuikov thought how patriotic Khrushchev was, but now, he saw that Khrushchev was also an opportunist, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he actually wanted to surrender.

He's probably forgotten what he said, right? When he appointed himself commander of the 62nd Army, he once said, "I swear that I will never leave the city, and I will do everything possible to hold on." I was determined to either hold the city or die there. ”

If you decide for yourself that you will not leave, you will not surrender!

Chuikov looked around, almost everyone had their heads down, so Chuikov knew that he had to do it himself.

Although Khrushchev is the supreme commander here, if Khrushchev intends to surrender, he will not let him go!

"My stomach hurts." Chuikov suddenly clutched his stomach: "The potatoes I ate this morning may not be ripe." ”

So saying, he bent down and walked outside.

Now, most of the troops in the city are from the 62nd Army, as long as Chuikov returns to his own troops, then he is not afraid, once Khrushchev says that he wants to surrender, then he can come over again with his troops at any time and control Khrushchev!

Dare to betray the Soviets? And his son is a virtue!
