"In view of the grave hostility of the German Empire and its vassal powers towards the Soviet Socialist Union Republic, the Council of People's Commissars decides to suspend the Soviet-German Treaty of Amity and Mutual Assistance with immediate effect and makes the following demands to the German Empire:

1. The German Empire must return to the Soviet Union the Baltic States, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the former Russian Polish territories, and Western Ukraine;

2. The German Reich must cease to provide security guarantees and military assistance to the Republic of Finland;

3. The German Reich must cease to provide security guarantees and military assistance to the Kingdom of Iran;

Fourth, the German Reich must cease to provide assistance to the reactionary forces in Afghanistan in all situations;

5. The German Empire must cease to provide security guarantees and military assistance to the Kingdom of Romania;

6. The German Empire must cease its invasion of the Republic of Ireland and withdraw all its troops from the Republic of Ireland. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

These six are the final demands of the SSE against the German Reich, and if the Reich Government fails to accept all six demands within 24 hours, the SSR Republic will be in a state of total war with the German Reich......"

Mrs. Kollentai, the Soviet ambassador to Germany and an old friend of Hersmann, was standing in Hitler's office in the German Chancellery at this time, stammering in a somewhat trembling voice the Soviet government's ultimatum to Germany.

She was an old Bolshevik of Lenin's time and at the same time one of the pioneers of Soviet-German friendship. Although Soviet-German relations have been deteriorating for more than a year since she was ambassador to Germany, the old lady has done her best to maintain Soviet-German relations. But now all her efforts have been in vain, and the most difficult thing for her to accept is that Germany is a socialist country after all!

Although there were many remnants of feudalism and capitalism in Germany, the socialist revolution was not complete. But even the Soviet Union itself has recognized Germany as a socialist or semi-socialist country over the past decade, and believes that Germany's social system is more advanced than that of the capitalist countries of Britain, the United States, and Japan. At least the working class and peasants in Germany were happier and less exploited under state socialism, and their standard of living was second only to that of the Soviet Union in the world......

Moreover, before the Mediterranean Campaign, the Soviet government believed that the "colonial liberation policy" pursued by the German government, although it had impure motives and wanted to "charge fees," was still more progressive than the colonial aggression pursued by Britain, the United States, and Japan.

At the same time, both the Soviet government and the Third International believed that the essence of the German policy in Europe was "expansionist National Socialism", whether it was a semi-socialist system to replace the capitalist system, or whether there was a certain progressive significance.

But in the blink of an eye, the Soviet state turned its face when it said it would turn its face, and the promised liberation of all mankind was gone, Germany was no longer socialist, and the European Community had become an instrument of aggression and expansion.

Well, even if Stalin had the foresight to see through the true face of the German Nazis. But how could the Soviet Union unite with such imperialist powers as the United States and Great Britain to fight against Germany?

Didn't it say that "the heart of British and American imperialism will not die when the Soviet Union is destroyed"?

Didn't it say that "Germany was the closest comrade plus brother of the USSR"?

Now the Soviet Union does not want comrades and brothers. How can they still unite with the immortal enemy of the dead heart to attack the former comrades and brothers?

Is this still Comrade Lenin's line? Is this still Marxism? Stalin couldn't have been a traitor, right?

"Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! ”

Adolph. Hitler suddenly shouted hysterically, shook his fists vigorously, and roared at the Soviet ambassador.

"Stalin was a traitor! A traitor to international socialism! He betrayed socialism, betrayed the working people of the whole world! Betrayal of the revolutionary line pioneered by Comrade Lenin! He saved the capitalist world by betraying the world revolution to the capitalists of London and Wall Street, by stabbing us in the back at the moment when the world revolution was about to win...... Use the blood and wealth of the working people of the Soviet Union to save the imperialists who hate the Soviet people from the fate of their inevitable perdition! ”

In the face of such accusations, the Soviet ambassador, Mrs. Kollentai, did not know how to refute it for a while. Say that Germany is not socialism? No matter how much capitalism and feudalism there are in Germany, it is more like socialism than Britain and the United States, right?

If the Soviet Union did not unite with Britain and the United States to train Germany alone, there would be something to say, but now the Soviet Union has joined forces with a colonial empire like Britain and a capital empire like the United States, and it still has the face to talk about world revolution and liberation of all mankind?

……

Head of the Political Department of the 18th Army of the Soviet Red Army, brigade-level commissar Leonid. Ilyich. Comrade Brezhnev learned that the world revolution would break out on June 1 on May 30, 1942, when he was attending a meeting at the Political Department of the South-Western Front yesterday afternoon.

This is, of course, both surprising and exciting news, the beginning of the world revolution was exciting, and Comrade Brezhnev, a loyal fighter of GC doctrine and an honorable member of the Bolshevik Party, knew for a long time that this day would come.

But what surprised him was that the Soviet Union would join forces with British and American imperialism to liberate all mankind...... Originally, he and most of the Soviets believed that the Soviet Union would work with Germany to liberate all mankind.

Although since last year, major newspapers such as Pravda have been frequently criticizing Germany, accusing it of imperialism under the banner of socialism. Moreover, as a senior political worker in the army (senior at the brigade level and above, regimental and battalion levels at the higher level, below the battalion level are intermediate ranks, and there are no subordinate ranks), Brezhnev was also instructed to expose the true face of the German Empire in agitation propaganda.

But Brezhnev and most of the political cadres who were shoulder to shoulder with him believed that the contradictions between the Soviet Union and Germany were always smaller than those between the Soviet Union and Britain and the United States. The question between the Soviet Union and Germany was how to divide the territory, while Britain and the United States were trying to destroy the Soviet Union.

But I didn't expect that now the Soviet Union would join forces with an enemy who was trying to destroy itself to attack its former socialist allies...... This matter, as a loyal GC fighter, of course, must be resolutely supported!

"Down with the German Nazis and fascists, liberate all of Europe, long live the world revolution!" Long live the Bolshevik Party! Long live Stalin, the great mentor, great leader and great commander of the working people of the world! ”

After conveying Stalin's latest supreme instructions to the regimental commissars, battalion political commissars, captain-level political instructors, and captain-level political instructors of the 18th Group, Brezhnev took the lead in raising his arms and shouting slogans, as well as the latest adherence of Comrade Stalin: the great mentor, great leader, and great commander of the working people of the world!

"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray......"

The political work cadres at all levels in the conference room were, of course, comrades with high consciousness and quick responses, and although they were not ideologically prepared, after Brezhnev finished conveying the instructions, everyone's thinking was already highly consistent with that of the party Central Committee. Everyone stood up and shouted long live with Brezhnev.

Seeing that the comrades were very conscious, Brezhnev nodded with satisfaction, and when everyone was tired of shouting long live, he began to arrange the next step of ideological and political work -- not all Red Army soldiers were as highly conscious as political cadres.

"Comrades, although our 18th Army was not the first batch of troops to plunge into the torrent of world revolution, there was not much time left for us to carry out ideological work in the troops. According to the plan, in 1 or 2 weeks, our team will embark on a journey to liberate all of humanity. Therefore, we must seize the short time to let all the Red Army soldiers know the great significance of this war -- this is a great world revolutionary war, a great war to liberate and liberate all mankind! ”

In fact, this kind of propaganda was also repeatedly thought about by Stalin, the great leader of the world revolution. At first, he also thought about mobilizing in the name of the "Great Patriotic War", and also planned to create the illusion of a German invasion and then a counterattack by the Soviet Union.

But after careful consideration, I felt that this propaganda was inappropriate. Ignorant civilians in the rear may believe it, but how can officers and soldiers fighting on the front line not know who is attacking whom? It is better to spread this kind of panic than to hold high the banner of liberating mankind.

At 7 p.m. on May 31, 1942, the Soviet ambassador to Germany, Mrs. Kollentai, delivered an ultimatum to Hitler. More than 200 divisions of Soviet Red Army units, tens of thousands of tanks/assault artillery and various armored vehicles have already entered the starting positions near the Soviet-German (including Poland and Western Ukraine) borders. More than 600 regiments of artillery, almost 20,000 artillery pieces were already deployed on preset artillery positions in the Soviet-German border area.

Quite a few scouts of the Soviet Red Army have even crossed the border and broken into the territory of Poland, Western Ukraine and the German Baltic!

Platoon commander of the 4th platoon of the reconnaissance company of the 55th Artillery Regiment directly under the 4th Infantry Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army (belonging to the 3rd Army under the Western Front) Alexander A. Second Lieutenant Solzhenitsyn. As early as 24 hours ago, he took his acoustic platoon (acoustic measurement is one of the means of finding artillery positions behind enemy lines) and set up an acoustic observation station on the banks of the quietly flowing Bug River.

Comrade Solzhenitsyn, a graduate of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of Rostov University and a scholar of literature at the Moscow Academy of Literature, History and Philosophy, was drafted into the army in 1941 when the Soviet Union began to speed up preparations for war. Due to his good mathematical skills (acoustic reconnaissance required a lot of calculations), he was assigned to the artillery school for short-term training, and in early 1942 he was assigned to the 4th Infantry Corps, which was stationed on the Soviet-German border. And before he was drafted into the army, he knew that his generation of Soviets was destined to sacrifice and contribute to the liberation of mankind.

At that time, however, he, like most of the Red officers and soldiers who were preparing to attack Germany, thought that he would go with the troops of National Socialist Germany to liberate London and New York, and plant the red flag on the roof of the White House...... (To be continued.) )
