Chapter 1079: Joseph's Worries
After seeing off the German representative in Brussels Ribbentrop, Molotov immediately went to the Kremlin to report the incident to Joseph.
"Comrade Joseph, the attitude of the Germans is very tough, and if we do not give them a satisfactory answer, the Germans will certainly take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. When the time comes, it will be very bad for us. Molotov said.
Joseph was holding his pipe, his brows were furrowed tightly, and the expression on his face was also very ugly. There is no doubt that the border guards crossed the border without authorization to attack the Kingdom of Ukraine, and he did not know about it. Even now, there has been no news at all. Had it not been for Molotov to report to him, he would have been completely kept in the dark.
After the purge, Joseph believed that Burussia was completely under his control. His will can be carried out very thoroughly. But now it seems that he still takes it for granted. There are still many places that he has no control over.
Such a result was undoubtedly unacceptable to Joseph. After all, the military is an important cornerstone of a country, and it is too important. Whoever controls the army will be able to control the regime. When he was competing with Trotsky, Joseph would not have won if Trotsky had not been foolish enough to master the army but not know how to use it. At that time, Trotsky had the strength to crush him. This made Joseph reassured that the purge would have to continue. In that case, he will be able to further strengthen his control over the army and even the entire Burussia.
"Comrade Molotov, this time is indeed a big deal. You did a good job, and in any case at this time, we can't get into trouble with the Germans. In that case, it will be very bad for us. For several years, the Germans were preparing for war. Presumably, by now, their preparations for war were almost complete. And our strength was originally greatly inferior to that of the Germans. Our preparations for war have not yet been completed. At this time, if we go to war with Germany, we will have no chance of winning. Therefore, we must now try to avoid war with the Germans, and we must not give them any excuse for going to war. Joseph said with a serious face.
Molotov also nodded, and Joseph's compliment made him secretly happy in his heart. However, he also agreed with Joseph's statement that if this matter is not handled well, I am afraid that it will cause very serious consequences.
"Comrade Joseph, since the Germans' preparations for war are almost complete, we must be more vigilant against the Germans using this incident as an excuse to go to war against us. So, we absolutely have to deal with it and not leave them with any excuses. Molotov said.
Joseph nodded, and then asked for Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov to be fetched. The former is the People's Commissar of Defense of the Russian Federation, and the latter is the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Army.
This time, the border guards attacked the Kingdom of Ukraine without authorization, and it is impossible for them not to know about such a big event.
Soon, Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov rushed to Joseph's office. Both of them were confused, not knowing what Joseph had summoned them for at this time. After all, they have been busy training their troops and storing war materials for the next war that is very likely to break out during this time.
As important leaders of the Russian military in Burundi, they know that the current situation is very unfavorable for them, and it seems that war will break out soon. Given the disadvantage of the Russians in the face of Germany, they wanted to be as prepared for war as possible. In this way, they would not have lost so badly in the war.
The advantage of Burussia lies in its enormous strategic depth and population. As long as they can resist the German attack in the early stage of the war, they can use the strategic depth and military superiority to continuously consume Germany's strength, and finally drag Germany to death.
But unfortunately, after the integration of Germany into Europe, the advantages of Burussia in this regard have disappeared. This made the important generals of the Burussian military anxious one by one, and did not know how to resist the German attack.
"Comrade Voroshilov, Comrade Shaposhnikov, who the hell gave the order for the border guards to cross the border to attack the Kingdom of Ukraine? Don't you know that this will ignite a war between us and Germany? Who can afford such consequences? When Joseph saw the two of them, he scolded them all the time.
Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov were stunned for a moment, they didn't know about it at all!
After a long while, when Joseph finished scolding, Voroshilov said: "Comrade Joseph, we don't know about this, I will immediately have someone thoroughly investigate this matter!" ”
Voroshilov also knew that this was undoubtedly a big deal, and it was no wonder that Joseph was so angry. If this really caused a war with Germany, it would undoubtedly be a nightmare for Burussia.
"You don't know?" Joseph raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph, we have no knowledge of this!" Shaposhnikov also hurriedly said.
After the purge, these military generals became more and more afraid of Joseph, for fear that Joseph would find some reason to attack them. This time, the border guards actually crossed the border to launch an attack on Ukraine, and they, as the military commanders, did not know about it. Obviously, if Joseph were to be held responsible, the two of them would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
Joseph couldn't help frowning, and he felt more and more that something was unusual. Is there some conspiracy in this?
"Let this matter be thoroughly investigated immediately, and I will know the result immediately!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Voroshilov immediately arranged it.
"Comrade Joseph, could this have been done by the Germans? They are thieves shouting to catch thieves, just to use this as an excuse to start war against us? If that's the case, then I'm afraid we'll have to prepare early! Molotov said.
Joseph's heart sank, and this was undoubtedly his greatest fear. Although the eyebrows know that there will inevitably be a war between Budo-Russia and Germany. However, he wanted to postpone the Queen of War as much as possible. At present, Buenos and Russia are not ready for war at all, and if they start a war, they may not be able to take any advantage, and if they do not do well, they will pay an extremely heavy price for this.
