"Hitler!"

A roar of rage rang out in the Kremlin, almost knocking the roof down. It was the roar of the proletariat www.biquge.info made by Comrade Stalin himself, and it made all the Kremlin functionaries shudder.

Marshal Pavlov and Marshal Shaposhnikov, who were standing in Stalin's office, preparing to report on the latest military situation, were also trembling slightly. Because they already knew the reason why Stalin was angry, the Germans arrogantly rejected the Soviet Union's request for peace. Hitler and Hersmann did not even meet Molotov, and even German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop did not go to Switzerland, leaving Molotov to dry.

And the reason for what the Germans did was, in Stalin's opinion, simply nothing to find fault with - Hitler actually declared the Katyn Forest incident an unforgivable atrocity!

The German Nazis actually wanted to cry out for the Poles! Didn't they themselves want to annex Poland? And they swallowed half of them, and under the pretext of the "Soviet invasion", many Poles were sent to various parts of Europe as refugees, and I heard that some Poles were resettled in Syria...... This was clearly intended to make room for the Poles to make room for the Germans, and now they were good guys.

This Hitler is just too reactionary!

"Comrade General Secretary ......" Seeing that Stalin's anger had subsided a little, the General Staff of the Red Army Shaposhnikov began to ask for instructions, "Comrade Golikov, commander of the Bryansk Front, asked for a breakthrough of the 38th, 40th, and 48th armies.

In addition, the commander of the South-Western Front, Comrade Konev, requested to abandon the Dnieper defense line and transfer the ...... to the Kharkov-Donetsk line "

Although the Germans rejoiced, as if the war had been won, in fact the Soviet-German battlefield was still bloody for two days.

Among them, the most fierce battle is still the "junction battlefield", but the main combat areas are moving south and east.

On the battlefield of PF No. 13 to the north of the "Junction Field", by daylight on 15 May, the fighting had ceased to be fierce. After several days of fighting, after finally beating the Soviet tank 5th Army to death and encircling the 13th collective farm, the German 11th Panzer Army and the 24th Panzer Army moved the main force south, leaving only 2 Panzergrenadier Divisions to continue to besiege the remnants of the 5th Tank Army.

On the evening of the 15th, the two German Panzer Divisions and one Panzergrenadier Division of the 1st Panzer Army joined forces with the main forces of the 1st Panzer Army and participated in the decisive battle at Gomel.

After defeating the 1st and 2nd Soviet tank armies, the main force of the German 1st Panzer Army (with a total of 4 Panzer divisions and 3 Panzergrenadier divisions) did not stop to rest, but on the morning of May 16, after becoming a fuel and ammunition replenishment, they immediately moved south and attacked the left bank Ukraine from the north.

As a result, the "Junction Battlefield" is now 4 battlefields.

One was the "Collective Farm Battlefield No. 13", where the remnants of the Soviet tank 5th Army were besieged by the Germans.

One was in the area of engagement between the 14th Armored Army and the 38th and 40th Soviet armies around Trubcchevsk.

There was also the Bryansk city battlefield, where the Soviet 48th Army was surrounded by 2 German Panzer Corps.

The last battlefield was in the territory of Ukraine's Chernihiv Oblast, where the German army's 4 panzer divisions and 3 panzergrenadier divisions and a motorized rifle corps fought fiercely with the remnants of the Soviet tank armies 1st and 2nd, the tank 3rd army (belonging to the Southwestern Front), and the 9th and 12th armies (belonging to the Southwestern Front).

Therefore, although the battle of the joint division is now divided, it is not over. The battle of PF No. 13, the battle of Trubcchevsk, the battle of Bryansk and the battle of Chernihiv are also being carried out at the same time.

However, in the Supreme Command, the Bryansk Front Command and the Southwestern Front Command below, there is no military expert who believes that the above four battles can still be won.

Since defeat is inevitable, why not withdraw the Red Army, which is at an extreme disadvantage, while it is still possible to withdraw some troops?

"No! Can't retreat! Stalin immediately cried out like a cat with its tail stepped on, "This is not allowed!" The Red Army could not retreat, not a single step...... Moreover, now the South-Western Front is being attacked by the Germans from the north-west, and it is simply impossible to withdraw the troops to Kharkov and Donetsk in their entirety.

In addition, the Germans had 2 more large armored clusters in the Bryansk region, equivalent to at least one Panzer Army, if the 38th, 40th and 48th armies broke through. This army group will go south to attack Kharkov! How can the Southwestern Front be able to resist it at that time? ”

Stalin's words also make sense. The Southwestern Front was now being attacked by the German Army Group South to the west and beaten by the reinforced German 1st Panzer Army to the north.

Now relying on the position, you can grit your teeth and hold on, if you start to escape, it is very likely that you will be pursued by the enemy all the way, and when the troops withdraw to Kharkov and Donetsk, there will be few people left.

"We need time!" Stalin seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and said in a solemn tone, "Now we must prepare for a long period of resistance, so we need time to transfer the factories in Kharkov, Donetsk and Leningrad to the east of the Ural Mountains...... There will be a large rear of resistance. ”

Pavlov and Shaposhnikov have nothing to say at this time, on the one hand, they are withdrawing troops, and on the other hand, they are moving factories, and it is really hard to say who is more important. And even if the troops of the Southwestern Front were withdrawn, most of the preparations would have been lost, and they would all be riflemen.

If there is not enough equipment to replenish it, even if there are hundreds of thousands or millions of riflemen, most of them will not be able to hold Moscow.

And Moscow lost ...... How long can the red flag of the USSR be raised?

……

"Hersman!"

On the outskirts of Leningrad, in the Alexander Palace in Tsarskoye Village, the Russian Empress Olga was also shouting, but she was not gritting her teeth at Hitler, but Reichsmarshal Hersmann.

Because her adopted daughter and heir, Kira. Archduchess Kirillovna had just reported to her Hersmann's attitude toward the "theory of Russian integration" -- she could understand Hitler's opposition to "Russian integration," and the Workers' Party, of course, opposed to foreign workers smashing their jobs.

However, Hersmann was the head of the Junker military aristocracy, the backstage of the Fatherland People's Party, and the Junkers of East Prussia. How can such a person oppose the "integration of Russia"? If the "fusion of Russia" is successful, they will be able to easily mix with the transnational aristocracy in East Prussia Junkers (many Russian aristocrats in history have German blood, and most of the blood in the veins of the tsarist family is also German), is this not good?

And the empress also gave Hersman the biggest red envelope - the heiress of the Yusupov family! If Tsarist Russia is restored, a small half of the Baku oil fields will be owned by the Heersman family in the future.

"Your Majesty......" the Russian Empress Kira. Grand Duchess Kirillovna looked at the empress who was about to explode and reminded in a low voice, "It is still possible that the Marquis Heinsberg (referring to Hersmann) will support us if Stalin refuses to cede Left-Bank Ukraine and Eastern Belarus." And this is a difficult decision to make and means serious consequences......"

The Russian empress snorted coldly: "There is no doubt that the Bolsheviks will cede that...... Now there is no agreement because the Germans have not yet occupied Left-Bank Ukraine. Once the Germans occupied it, Stalin could have solved the problem by 'shelving the dispute'! ”

The empress was a bystander, and at once she thought of a path that neither Stalin nor Hersmann had thought of - shelving the controversy and developing it together......

"Your Majesty, that means we still have time." The empress's confidant and future father-in-law, Prince Yusupov, also attended today's meeting, and this time whispered a reminder to the empress who was obsessed with the authorities.

"The Germans are not going to occupy all of Eastern Ukraine anytime soon," Prince Yusupov said, "and if they see the Crimean peninsula as part of Ukraine, then we have at least a few more months to operate." ”

"Operational?" The Empress looked at Prince Yusupov, "What does it do?" ”

"Petrograd, of course!" Prince Yusupov said, "Although both the Marshal of the Hersmann Empire and Chancellor Hitler did not approve of the 'theory of Russian integration,' once Your Majesty the Empress enters Petrograd and becomes a real Empress, Hersmann will still support you." Because those people behind him are all in favor of 'melting Russia'. ”

The people behind Hersmann are, of course, the Junkers officer corps, and Hersmann is their leader but not their master, and if Leningrad becomes Petrograd, it means that White Russia has become the climate, and the "Russian fusion theory" will become the mainstream of the Junkers officer corps. Naturally, Hersman can only follow the good as he goes.

And Hersman and Olga have always had a good relationship, which can be described as "intimate". So it would be very beneficial for Hersman and his family to really be able to restore Olga in Russia. As far as Germany is concerned, it is difficult to "integrate Russia", but once it succeeds, it will be at least a hundred years of hegemony (world domination), and neither Hersmann nor Hitler will go against it to the end.

"But how are we going to take Petrograd?" The Empress asked.

"I don't know," said Prince Yusupov, "but someone knows!" ”

"Who?"

"Those who write you a letter of allegiance!" Prince Yusupov said, "I remember that Lenin, the leader of the Bolshevik Party, once said: the fortress is easiest to storm from within!" Although the 11-month siege did not turn Leningrad into Petrograd, the interior of the fortress must have changed, and it is no longer monolithic. (To be continued.) )
