Stalin personally summoned him, and for the sake of himself and Sherepin to discuss the agricultural issue, it seems that it can be confirmed that the special guard company is placed next to him to monitor as he originally suspected, of course, they will also risk their lives to protect themselves, seeing that Andrei has not spoken, and his face is very ugly, Stalin smiled and said: "Andrey, don't be nervous, I just hope to hear some more truthful words."

Indeed, people like Stalin who have reached the top of power, the most difficult thing to hear is the truth, the so-called loneliness of the king, think about who is not called a lonely widow among those emperors in history, the loneliness of the emperor is unimaginable to ordinary people. Surrounded by glory and aura, they don't seem to be alone. However, the hearts of the emperors are the loneliest. This iron leader is no exception, although he has countless shortcomings, he is not a fool, and he also knows that many of the people below him are bent and welcome, and Stalin is also a master of power to be able to run the Soviet for so many years, of course he needs enough truth, and the reports made by Andrei do exactly this, and Andrei has never expressed dissatisfaction (nonsense, those who dare to be dissatisfied with him have already gone to meet Comrade Marx) In the face of this red tsar, Andrei also didn't know what to say for a while, the so-called companion is like a tiger, he doesn't know what Stalin's attitude is, whether he supports or opposes the discussion between himself and Sherepin?

But Andrei quickly chose to speak: "Comrade Stalin, I think that although our main task now is to fight, agriculture must now try to tap its potential!" I remember you once said, "What kind of people does fascism want to destroy?" It was Kutuzov and Suvorov, Pushkin and Tolstoy, Repin and Surikov, Chernyshevsky and Stanislavsky, Glinka and Tchaikovsky...... The national ...... of these great men But Andrei paused and looked at Stalin, who smiled and waved his hand to signal Andrei to continue, and Andrei immediately continued: "Our war with the Germans is a general war in which everything is gambled, and the difference between this form of war and the previous forms of war is that the outcome of the war is no longer determined by the level of a professional army. Professional armies and standing armies will be greatly diluted by attrition and military expansion in wartime. Therefore, the quality of the generals and the standing army, as well as the level of weapons and equipment, no longer dominate the outcome of a war. The outcome of the war was much less fortuitous. War has become a multifaceted contest, not just a battlefield.

In this form of warfare, the most important elements have changed: industrial level, population, and strategic depth. Only in countries that are basically comparable in these aspects will it extend to the competition of the quality of generals, standing armies, and weapons. So these three elements become the core elements because:

First of all, the level of industry determines the level and production of basic weapons. The more modern the war, the greater the role of technological weapons in the war. If you can have an advantage in the level and quantity of technical weapons, you will be able to enjoy an advantage in war.

Secondly, there is a lot of human life consumption in general warfare. A larger population means being able to organize a larger army in a war and be able to sustain greater casualties. At the same time, population often determines the size of the industry.

And then there is strategic depth: a large land area means that one's own industry can be deployed far away from the war to maintain long-term stable production, and it also means that the ability to withstand strategic failure increases. France was defeated by the Nazi blitzkrieg, and we were able to continue to fight despite a greater defeat than France, and the core of the two is not that our country's strategic depth is greater than that of the French, and the Nazis gave our country a huge blow at the beginning of the war, but we were not defeated.

Now we can see that this general war is a confrontation of national strength between countries, and it is greater than who can bear the losses.

In general warfare, command is an organizational issue, and a great deal of organizational work is required for intelligence analysis, troop organization, and carrying out operations. Whichever side is more well-organized and capable of working is more likely to win. The role played by the personal qualities and mentality of the generals in the whole war was greatly reduced.

In total warfare, the civilians of a country are the basis of that country's war machine. We need someone to join the army, we need someone to produce weapons and equipment, so what do people need most, that is, food! Without enough food, we can't guarantee the continuation of the war, although we can temporarily satisfy the soldiers on the front line, but the situation in the rear is very serious! ”

And after listening to Andrei's words, Stalin thought it was true, yes, there is no possibility of peace talks in this war now, only one nation defeats another, and one country eats another! It is true that although Stalin never cared about population loss, it is true that population is now a precious resource, and no politician will ignore it!

Then Andrei continued to gush out the theories summarized by later experts and the Internet, and Stalin's face gradually changed, because who would dare to believe that a 23-year-old young man could understand war so thoroughly!

Looking at Stalin's strange gaze, Andrei suddenly reacted, the military is a genius, but such a deep thinking about war can't fall from the sky, you must know that such a theory has to understand a lot of things, have accumulated experience to have such thinking, but Andrei is only 23 years old now, you must know that the overall war is not only military, but also involves politics and economy!

And without waiting for Andrei to figure out how to explain, Stalin said: "Andrey, it seems that you have been seriously summarizing all this time." And the tone was not too surprised, it seems that because of Andrei's previous performance, Stalin simply felt that Andrei had a high talent in military affairs, and some people were suitable for war, speaking of military genius, young and thinking, Stalin couldn't help but think of that person, although that person actually had obvious shortcomings, and his temper was also very unruly, but he did have a lot of military talent, but he couldn't be used by me, so he could only die!

And Andrei didn't know that Stalin was actually comparing himself with that person in his mind at this moment, and if he knew, he would probably be scared to death now. But soon Stalin reacted and continued to Andrei: "It is true that we cannot ensure victory in the war without enough food, but I will arrange the specifics, Andrey, I came to you not only for this, then, according to Beria's recommendation, you will go to Siberia to inspect the situation in our rear, you will be a commissioner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Captain Yushchenko will accompany you, and there will be several personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, For the production work in the rear, including industry, agriculture and forestry, a comprehensive investigation and investigation is carried out, and if there is a problem, I authorize you to solve it directly, and if it is too significant, you can contact Moscow directly. ”

Then Stalin kindly asked: "Do you have any opinion on this appointment?" Andrei thought, how dare I have an opinion about your old man, so Andrei stood up and saluted and said: "Yes, Comrade Stalin!" ”
