420th vote. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

――――――――――――

Staling held his pipe and looked at the information in silence, he was a silent person, he spoke very little, and he rarely smiled, so he looked extremely serious, but his heart was sensitive, fragile, easily stimulated, and easily injured.

He was stimulated by China's military technology, and the Chinese's aircraft technology has exceeded his imagination.

With 5 tons, 400 kilometers and a wingspan of 28 meters, he couldn't imagine how such a huge steel monster could pull so many bombs and run wildly in the sky.

He used to be curious about China, and even studied it carefully, but the more he studied, the more frustrated he became.

In less than 30 years, China has risen from a poor agricultural country and a sick man in East Asia who is bullied by others to a world industrial power and a hegemon in East Asia.

There are no secrets to the methods of the Chinese, Yang Chao borrowed tens of billions of marks, bought an industrial system, and that's it.

This fact is actually an encouragement to Stalin, because it means that through procurement, through large-scale planned construction, it is also possible to build an industrial power.

This kind of construction is being carried out in Soviet Russia now, and it is larger, more courageous, and faster than the Chinese.

Stalin believed that if he could be given more than 10 years and let him calmly carry out two or three five-year industrial construction, Soviet Russia would not be afraid of anyone or any country, and then it would not be that Soviet Russia was worried about the invasion of others, but that it would fight out and carry out a world revolution.

But the war with Yang Chao made him feel that it seemed that construction alone could not be done, and Soviet Russia also built a large aircraft factory, but the gap between Soviet and Russian aircraft technology and Chinese aircraft was too large.

Stalin, after a moment of deep thought, decided to meet the decadent intellectuals of the Tsarist era. Those few aircraft designers.

Port of Angara, located on the banks of the Angara River, is the largest tributary of the Yenisei River in terms of volume, since its source is Lake Baikal. After coming out of Lake Baikal, it flows through Irkutsk and then to the port of Angara.

This is actually the later Angarsk, but at this time the city was not yet established, but it was just a river port. It has a population of only a few thousand.

On the left bank of the river leading to the port of Angara, a column of roaring monsters pushed forward, and the snow on the undulating heights on the left was still thick, but the river on the right was slowly civilized, and the river was still covered with ice, but the sound of the ice gurgling could be heard.

Along the banks of the river, on a ten-kilometer width, 3000 tanks were advancing, each of which was followed by at least one squad of infantry.

The Soviets did not come to stop them, because their tanks were already lying on their stomachs. Moreover, this place is still about 20 kilometers away from the port of Angara, and it has not yet reached the distance covered by fire.

According to the results of the reconnaissance, the Soviets built improvised fortifications in the port of Angara, and it seemed that they intended to fight a defensive war.

The commander of the Fourth Army, Rommel, wearing a military coat, stood on a high ground and looked at it for a long time with his telescope held high, he could already see the fortifications of the port of Angara, but the other side had no intention of coming out for a field battle, and he would not take the initiative to attack, which was the rule of war. It is always better to defend than to attack, and it is easier to win by counterattacking after fending off one or two waves of enemy charges than by charging head-on.

"Commander's telegram."

A herald rushed over to deliver orders from the rear.

After Rommel looked at it.

"Order the whole army to rest. Defend in place. ”

Although he is now on the offensive, as long as he does not rush to the enemy's position, he must be ready to defend at any time.

Rommel was very cautious about this, and even had some dogma, perhaps because he had been the principal of a military school for many years.

Rommel was able to be this commander-in-chief precisely because he was the principal of the military academy.

Rommel fought in World War I. However, at the end of the war, he was only a captain company commander, Germany could only retain 100,000 men, the competition was too fierce, he could not stay in the army, so he went to Dresden Infantry School as an instructor, and then briefly became a chaser battalion commander, then went to Potsdam Military School as an instructor, and last year, he was the principal of the Vienna Neustadt Military School in Austria.

Because he is the principal of a military academy, he has no military position, and he is a principal in Austria, so his identity is not sensitive, and at the same time he has a rich military theoretical foundation, so he is the most suitable commander.

But this is not the biggest reason why he can come to Siberia to serve as the commander of an army group, the biggest reason is because Adolf Hitler became the German Chancellor, Adolf is a person, and those who belittle him say that they use his corporal background to talk about things, so as to infer that he has no military talent, and he is completely blind in command.

But don't forget, many German generals in World War II may not have any special talents in World War I, 20 years between the two world wars, enough for a corporal to grow into a marshal, the key is to work hard, Adolf is just a particularly hard-working person, he read a lot of military works, in this regard, he is more professional than Churchill, Stalin, Roosevelt and other contemporaries of the statesman.

Adolf appreciated Rommel, and it was precisely because he saw the book "Infantry Attack" written by Rommel that he decided to promote Rommel, but the book had not yet been written at this time, so Rommel was not an accidental acquaintance of Adolf, but the result of conditional screening.

In January of this year, Adolf was appointed chancellor by Hindenburg, who did not like him, with the support of many political forces in Germany, and even the German royal family who had abdicated behind him.

Of course, the premise is the political victory of Adolf's Nazi Party, in the parliamentary elections in July last year, the Nazi Party became the largest party in Germany in one fell swoop, the Nazi Party got 37.3% of the votes and won 230 parliamentary seats, Hindenburg summoned Adolf, hoping that he could cooperate with Papen to form a coalition government, if it were not for the fact that the first major party, Hindenburg, an old-fashioned aristocracy, would not even bother to deal with Adolf's mud legs.

The ambitious Adolf demanded sole power and asked the president to give him full authority to form a cabinet, but the two sides did not talk about a single piece and the negotiations broke down.

When it was no longer possible, many German politicians became active, including the German royal family.

On January 22, the German crown prince personally sent a telegram to Hindenburg, urging him to authorize Adolf to form a cabinet, and Wilhelm II donated 2 million marks to the Nazis.

With the intervention of various forces, especially the abdicated royal family, Hindenburg appointed Adolf as Chancellor of Germany on January 30.

But Adolf also compromised, and there were only two Nazi members in the cabinet, and it was still a coalition government.

After becoming president, Adolf immediately began to carry out various conspiracies according to his ideals, including military expansion, and soon Yang Chao intervened in the Soviet Russian invasion of Siberia, and began to recruit knights around the world to defend the Tsar.

Adolf asked the military to screen some outstanding people who were not sensitive to their identities and at the same time had a certain degree of military literacy, and Rommel was recommended to Hitler as a candidate.

As a result, under Adolf's instructions, Rommel signed up for the Tsarist Knights in his personal capacity, and because of his military background, he was soon appointed commander of the Fourth Army, and was ordered to train and command the Fourth Army of the Tsarist Knights, which consisted of Europeans and Americans.

Of course, he can become the commander of this group army, it is not so simple, it is full of various conspiracies, as well as political deals.

On one side of the deal was Yang Chao, and on the other side was the new German government, and their men had already arrived in Siberia.

This guest has a special status, because the power behind him is too strong, he is the White Wizard Shacht. (To be continued.) )
