Chapter 1555: Public Opinion Attack

"Comrade Stalin, the latest news." Beria came in a hurry with a large pile of newspapers.

In the war, reading the other side's newspapers seems to be a very low-level way, but it is quite effective, by studying the other side's newspapers, you can still find useful information, for example, now, the German newspapers are almost all swarming to report on the favorable situation at the front, the Northern Route Army has liberated Kalinin, the Southern Route Army has reached the city of Tula, and so on.

Although it may be misleading, it is still useful after screening, especially in the early days of the Great Patriotic War, when Stalin's troops were in a mess, and the best way for Stalin to know where his troops were was was to look at the German newspapers and see which troops the Germans had captured and crossed out which troops on their maps.

And now, the newspapers in front of him, not only the Germans, but also the newspapers of other countries that were occupied by Germany and subordinated to Germany, and now, almost all the newspapers, with the front page headlines, are the same news.

The Katyn Massacre: Crimes Against Humanity by the Soviets.

Moscow, please give an account to the Poles.

My killer father: Yakov's own account.

May the tragedy of the Katyn massacre not be repeated, Stalin's son is repenting.

Stalin knew just by looking at the title how serious the situation was.

"Yakov was captured?" Stalin asked.

The situation at the front is chaotic, we are verifying, but, as if there is already no doubt.

Newspapers, there are photos, there is no plastic surgery in this era, there is no PS surgery, and the photos are almost all real.

Most of the photos show endless mass graves, some of which are Soviet prisoners digging, and some of which are Yakov's eyes full of tears, looking at the Poles and crying.

Yakov, captured again, this time even more terrible than the last time, because the Germans actually used Yakov to fight Stalin!

"Broadcast and tell the whole Soviets, the whole world, not to fall for the Germans." "This is clearly a trick of the Germans, who killed the Poles and blamed us, and the prisoners, even more hateful, especially Yakov!" ”

Stalin was angry, Yakov was captured, he would be used by the Germans, he could think of this, but the Germans made a fuss about Yakov and the events in the Katyn Forest together, so that he could not bear it anymore.

"We, the Soviets, only fighters, only martyrs, no prisoners! Those who were captured were no longer the warriors of our Soviets, these renegades, what could they not do in order to get preferential treatment from the Germans? In view of Yakov's bad behavior, I now declare that I will dissociate myself from father and son with Yakov, Yakov, the enemy of our Soviets, and any unit that captures a prisoner can be punished on the spot! Stalin was almost on the verge of roaring.

Beria frowned.

Stalin's orders, obviously, would worsen the situation, and his Soviet remarks that there were no prisoners would make the Soviet army fight to the death on the one hand, but on the other hand, it would also make the prisoners quickly defect, and the prisoners would become servants of the Germans, and when they turned around, they would strike harder, because they knew that they had no way out.

Now, Stalin is afraid that he will push Yakov to the side of the Germans, and now in this situation, Yakov is clearly being used, but Stalin's broadcast will really force Yakov to the side of the Germans.

It's a bad move, but there doesn't seem to be a better option.

"Yes." Beria said, as he walked out, thinking quickly, right now, the situation is really too bad!

The Germans surrounded Moscow on three sides, and soon became surrounded on all sides, and at this time, the Germans began to launch a propaganda offensive, which clearly showed that they were going to start paving the way, and after occupying Moscow, they would pave the way for the subsequent political pattern and stink the Stalin government!

Now, under the heavy attack of the Germans, even Beria feels that he has no bottom in his heart, and he doesn't know if he can survive it, if he can't survive, then how should he choose the back road?

Beria tried to put this idea behind him, he was a knife in Stalin's hand, others might be able to pass, he definitely couldn't, there were too many enemies.

Across the ocean.

"The Germans are really going to seize the opportunity." Roosevelt looked at the flood of newspapers, almost every one of which was complaining about the atrocities of the Soviets in the Katyn Forest, and even Roosevelt was a little big-headed.

If you want to say that the Germans are to blame, Roosevelt really didn't believe it, Stalin could do it.

However, at this time, such information is revealed, and it will be troublesome.

A lot of public opinion is directed at the United States, the Soviets are so mad and anti-human, such a government, why should the United States fund it?

"We cannot stop supporting the USSR." Roosevelt said, "If the Soviets fall, then the Germans should turn around against us." ”

The Germans suddenly seized Iceland, leaving the Americans like a great enemy, and now it seems that the Germans just shot a false shot, after occupying Iceland, the Germans did not launch a larger battle, but continued the war in the Soviet Union, and now, the Germans are advancing towards Moscow, and it is estimated that within a month, Moscow will be occupied by the Germans.

It is all too clear what it means to occupy the capital of a country, and at this time, the blow to the public opinion of the Germans is really too harsh.

"Yes, we will actively maintain the image of the USSR and print Stalin's speech, which is all a German conspiracy, and the Germans must not be allowed to succeed." Secretary of State Hull said.

"Of course, we also have to prepare for the worst." Roosevelt turned to Marshall and asked, "How's our Atlantic defense going?" ”

If the Soviet Union can hold on, that's the best, if the Soviet Union can't hold on, then the United States will have to prepare for the challenge from the Germans, and now, the number one project of the United States is the Atlantic defense line.

Historically, the Atlantic defense line was built by the Germans, in order to resist the invasion of the Allied forces, a 2,700-kilometer defense line was built, and the facts have proved that this passive defense is useless.

And now, the Americans have no choice, they have begun to build their own Atlantic defense line on the east coast of the United States.

The German navy, the speed of the riot is too fast, integrating the forces of the whole of Europe, the aircraft carriers of the Germans are one after another, and their goal is definitely to land in the United States.
