According to your previous instructions, we must not be involved in the war between the imperialists, and if we fully support Romania, we may well provoke the anger of Germany against the Soviet Union, and thus turn the spearhead of attack against us. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Therefore, we should find ways to show our strong armed forces from other aspects, so that Germany will not dare to act rashly. ”

Stalin thought for a while with his pipe in his mouth, and then agreed with Zhukov's opinion:

"Then you talk about how to show our strong armed forces, don't talk about exercises on the Romanian border, Germany has already started exercises, and it is very unwise for us to provoke the Germans at this time, talk about other methods."

Stalin's political acumen is very powerful, although Stalin's command level can only be equivalent to an infantry regiment commander, but Stalin's iron-blooded political skills are not many people can catch up, the Chinese Yankee Chiang's command ability is only a battalion commander level, it seems that Stalin is not at the bottom.

Chuikov took Stalin's words and began to talk about his thoughts:

"Comrade Stalin, since we can't find a way on the Romanian border, we can completely take Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, and these small Baltic countries have a large number of coastlines, which will also be used by us, and to deal with these three small countries, we only need to mobilize 200,000 troops."

"Well, Comrade Chuikov's idea is very good and feasible, I think it can be considered."

Stalin set the tone for Chuikov's opinion, and it seemed that the fate of Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia was almost over.

"Comrade Stalin, I don't think that just attacking the three small Baltic countries will not show our strength, and we can take action against Finland after fighting these three small countries, so that we can grab the Finnish port of Hanko."

"I agree."

"I'm in favor of it too"

Stalin still did not know that this was a hole dug by Rommel, because the Soviet-German "Non-Aggression Pact" was signed, and Stalin did not take this treaty completely seriously, and he deployed more than two million troops on the Soviet-German border to defend it.

Germany also deployed more than 3 million troops in Poland, and both sides were originally tense, but Germany turned the spearhead to Romania.

Romania is a small oil-rich country, and it is reasonable for Germany to turn the finger on Romania, which is serious for everyone, and Stalin and a group of Soviet generals have finally let go of their vigilance.

The other was the destruction of the Soviet intelligence system in Germany, and the Soviet Union, which had no top-secret intelligence sources, immediately misjudged Rommel's strategy.

Stalin's miscalculation of Rommel's decision-making, Soviet Minister of Internal Affairs Beria concealed the Bauman spy case from Stalin, and without the top-secret documents provided by Bauman to Beria, Beria told Stalin that everything was normal.

Before the Baumann espionage case, Germany's every move could not escape the eyes of the Soviet Union, and now it is secretly scolding the corridor for losing such a high-level source of intelligence, and it will certainly not be able to adapt in a short time, and Rommel seized this opportunity.

Because Stalin judged that Germany would not attack the Soviet Union by surprise, he mobilized 1 million troops to attack Finland and 500,000 troops to attack the three Baltic states.

All this is Stalin showing Germany and the world his powerful Soviet Red Army, Stalin means that Germany wants to retreat in difficulty, you see my army is very strong! Don't mess with me.

Stalin's movements were swift, and more than a million Soviet troops, at the call of Comrade Stalin, launched a lightning-like attack on the appellant countries, and the three Baltic countries were defeated by the blows of the Soviet army.

In the face of Finland, the attack of more than a million Soviet troops was blocked, because the difficult army had many German armorers, and the Soviet army was not Finland's opponent at all in terms of weapons and equipment, except for the frenzy of government affairs.

Well, more than 400,000 Finnish troops defeated the million-strong Soviet Union, and the difficult troops invaded Soviet territory instead.

It was difficult to clamor for the recovery of the territories seized by the Soviets hundreds of years ago, and the enraged Stalin, feeling disgraced in front of the whole world, immediately ordered a large number of defeated officers to be shot.

Then, under the strict orders of Comrade Stalin, the Soviet army launched a counterattack against Finland without fear of death, Finland was a small country after all, with a limited population and army, Finland was beaten back, and the Soviet army continued to pursue.

The war between the Soviet Union and neighboring countries attracted the attention of the whole world, and the world was in an uproar, and some of Germany's secret actions did not attract so much attention.

……

Before Rommel decided to implement the Barbarossa Plan, he concocted a fake strategic plan for arms for Romanian oil.

Stalin of the Soviet Union did not hesitate to jump into this pit that Rommel dug for him, and the same is true of Britain, an old-school colonial country that also has a share of oil in Romania, and now Germany wants to exchange Romanian oil, which will undoubtedly enhance Germany's war potential, which is absolutely unacceptable.

The UK also convened an emergency meeting to this effect:

Britain is not as domineering as the Soviet Union, and their methods are much more tactful, not that Britain does not want to be tough on Romania or use the threat of force.

Rather, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain was engaged in peace talks with Germany, so Britain could not and did not dare to openly sabotage the arms-for-oil deal between Germany and Romania.

Could it be that Britain watched Germany break through its own oil blockade against Germany? Of course, it was impossible, the British had their own methods, and for this reason Chamberlain still gathered cabinet members to discuss countermeasures.

Of course, it was impossible, the British had their own methods, and for this reason Chamberlain still gathered cabinet members to discuss countermeasures.

Since Britain wanted to instigate Germany to attack the Soviet Union, it could lead to trouble and give Britain enough time to develop advanced weapons, and at the same time, when Germany and the Soviet Union were both defeated, they could unite with the Soviet Union again, and completely kill Germany, of course, they could also unite with Germany and completely carve up the Soviet Union.

If the situation was really what Chamberlain expected, Britain would have made a lot of money, and no matter which country Britain carved, Britain would have gained a lot of money, and no matter which country Britain carved up.

If Germany does not fight the Soviet Union and turns around and kills Britain first, then Britain will not shoot itself in the foot, so this secret sabotage activity is absolutely indispensable, and the British coalition forces do not need to consider sending troops to Romania, they can only use black hands.

Chamberlain, who returned to the post of prime minister at 10 Downing Street in the British Prime Minister's Office, convened a cabinet meeting on March 20, and in order to increase the efficiency of decision-making and keep secrets, only a few people were among the wartime cabinets.
