The German shelling, which made Soviet leader Joseph Stalin in Moscow furious every time it appeared, has become commonplace.

Three days of shelling have made everyone in Moscow accustomed to that kind of deafening noise.

The shelling has been going on for several days now. Stalin was woken up every day by artillery fire, and there were black circles around his eyes.

He looked at the newspaper in his hand, which was full of stories about the heroic and tenacious resistance of the Soviet Red Army to the invaders.

For example, which soldier blew up one of the German tanks, and which pillbox blocked the attack of the German troops for a long time......

These articles can almost be used in tomorrow's newspaper by changing the name of the protagonist, and there is nothing new at all.

Anyway, now that the German team is already under the city of Moscow, they can shell the outskirts of Moscow every day, blowing up not many houses left there.

Without the atomic bomb, it would have been very difficult to completely wipe out a city, and in real history, there are still many houses in Stalingrad that survived after the war.

Moscow is larger than Stalingrad, so there are more buildings and a bit more grandiose.

For example, there are many churches in Moscow, all of which can be called places of interest, and the Red Square and the Kremlin are also famous tourist attractions in later generations.

It's just that these places have not yet entered the shelling zone of the German ** team, so they have not been seriously affected.

"Kaluga's German army was not repulsed, the reinforcements from the south had to make a detour backwards, and tomorrow the vanguard would arrive in Moscow, about 20,000 men." While the secretary was eating breakfast, he read the important events of the day to Stalin.

Moscow was already surrounded on two sides, with a direct German attack to the west and Guderian's armored forces to the south.

Now Moscow is already very dangerous, but Stalin has no intention of leaving, which makes everyone under him panic.

Stalin held a knife and fork in his hand, pressed the sausage with a fork, cut off a piece of it little by little with a knife, and elegantly placed it in his mouth.

He still had sausages to eat and a hearty breakfast, but dozens of kilometers away from him, the soldiers on the front line only had cold food to satisfy their hunger.

"Zhukov is still a loyal ......" while eating, Stalin gave his own evaluation.

Zhukov now has the most elite army of 2 million in the Soviet Union, and he was very touched by the fact that he was able to obey Stalin's orders at such a time of crisis, when he was about to be encircled.

In return, Stalin now also trusted Zhukov, at least in terms of military command, and he favored Zhukov's opinion.

It was precisely because Zhukov thought that Rokossovsky was well defended that Stalin did not blame Rokossovsky for losing the periphery of Moscow.

In the same way, it was precisely because Rokossovsky was not removed that the Soviet army always adhered to the correct defensive policy of step-by-step.

At this moment, on the outskirts of Moscow, the senior generals of the German army had already begun to suffer from their huge losses.

No matter how you look at it, there were too many Soviet troops around Moscow. Although a large part of these forces cannot be called troops, it will take time to eliminate such forces.

The German troops did not have that much time, so they were even more anxious that if winter came, Moscow might survive the bitter cold between November and February.

And the German army had to survive a winter in the field, and the embarrassment of not being able to attack in winter would leave the Soviet Union a respite.

Let a vast country breathe for 3 months, Li Le, a traverser, doesn't know if there will be any variables.

"About 20 more houses have been destroyed in the suburbs, and civilians in two blocks have been severely affected." The secretary glanced down at the report again and continued to speak.

"The German attack will not last long, the great victory must be ours!" Stalin took another bite of sausage, and then said this in a deep voice.

"Tomorrow, we leave Moscow...... Call Khrushchev and Konev, they prepare. Suddenly, Stalin, who had never said anything about leaving Moscow, spoke.

It was the only substantive order he had spoken in a few days. Before, he just kept asking where to hold, but he couldn't come up with any specific plan.

He cannot be blamed, because he is a leader, he is only responsible for making programmatic requirements, and the completed plan is drawn up by his subordinates.

It's just that at the tactical level, no matter how much he asks, he can't turn the real battlefield situation around.

"Yesterday a train entered Moscow, and German air strikes destroyed our railway line to the north, but 100 T-34 tanks were brought in." The secretary spoke.

Hearing the good news, Stalin's interest sounded high, and he nodded, saying nothing else, just eating the fine food in front of him.

Even in times of war, even when the enemy is besieging the city, the leader's breakfast must be elaborately crafted, and this must be ensured.

The secretary turned around and left with the report, and when he reached the door, he had a smile on his face, he could finally leave, and follow the leader out of this dangerous front-line city.

"The great leader Comrade Stalin is leaving, go and get your bags ready! Clothes, medals...... And the supplies for his favorite pipe...... "As he reached the door, the secretary opened his mouth and ordered the waiter who was standing there.

The waiter at the door nodded, turned around and went to collect Stalin's personal belongings. He was also very happy, thinking that as a servant that Stalin could not do without in life, he could also leave with Stalin.

The secretary looked at the officer standing beside him again, and with a smile on his face, he commanded: "Call Comrade Khrushchev and Comrade Konev and tell them that Comrade Stalin has decided to leave Moscow tomorrow!" ”

"I see!" The officer saluted, then turned to inform. He was not in a good mood, because he was not a member of Stalin's guard, so he might not be able to leave with Stalin.

If you don't do it, you will stay in this unfortunate city and destroy it with this city. So the officer was in a heavy mood and walked to the end of the corridor with a blushing face.

In the hallway, there was still the smell of ashes from burning documents, and the window had been partially covered with sandbags, and only the upper part could still penetrate the dazzling morning light......
