There has never been a country in the world like Russia, which has been a nightmare for its neighbors since it became strong. Beginning with Tsar Peter, successive Russian rulers have taken the acquisition of access to the sea as their most important mission, for which the Russians went to war with Sweden in the north, seized the Baltic Sea, and built Petrograd as the capital.

To the south, the Russians went to war with the Ottoman Empire, seized the Crimean Peninsula, and obtained the Black Sea outlets, but these two outlets were not in a good position at this time, and entering the ocean from the Baltic Sea needed to bypass Jutland to enter the North Sea, and the route from the North Sea to the Atlantic Ocean had been watched by the British.

As for the Black Sea, it is also an inland sea, and if you want to enter the ocean, you need to first pass through the Turkish Strait, and then you can enter the Mediterranean, and the Mediterranean Sea is not an ocean, and you have to pass through the Strait of Gibraltar Strait.

The Russians also tried to seize the Turkish Straits and let themselves enter the bathtub of the Mediterranean Sea from the washbasin of the Black Sea, but then the Crimean War broke out, which undoubtedly taught the Russians that the European powers would not allow Russia to occupy Turkey, and that Tsarist Russia would never want to embrace the sea.

The Crimean War was an insurmountable red line drawn by the European powers against Tsarist Russia, and at this time the Russians found another direction, that is, to seize the sea from the weakened Qing Dynasty, which had few strong countries in the Far East and had many excellent ice-free ports.

The greedy Russians began to force China to occupy piece after piece of land, and the Russians first occupied Haisenwei and made it the largest fulcrum in the Far East. However, Heisenwei still had to freeze in winter, and it was not an ice-free port, so the Russians set their sights on Lushun again.

Construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and construction of the Middle East Road. The Russians tried to take control of the Far East in their own hands with the railway. Fulfill the legacy of Tsar Peter. However, it was also the bad luck of the Russians, and just when they were about to finish, the Japanese launched the Russo-Japanese War, which shattered Russia's dream of occupying the Far East.

A little bit of history. You will find that although Russia has access to the sea in three directions, it is not ideal, and the Russians need a strategic support point that can really allow them to embrace the sea, which is a national policy that Russia will never change. No matter if the country turns red or something else, as long as Russia still has the heart of a great power, this will never change.

Qiao Yu is very clear about Russia's mentality, now that China has recaptured the Outer Northeast, and Qiao Yu is also ready to completely control the Far East and cut off Russia's road to the Pacific Ocean, which is a goal that Qiao Yu has always wanted to achieve.

However, Qiao Yu was also unwilling to fight the Soviet Union, so he proposed Greece and Turkey in exchange for China to help the Soviet Union get out of the Turkish Straits. Towards the Mediterranean.

In fact, Qiao Yu has a deeper intention in doing this, that is, to promote the post-war Soviet Union and the United States and Britain towards a full-scale confrontation. Avoid China becoming the main target of the West. As with Germany, the Soviet Union is now supported so that China can gain valuable time for development.

From the establishment of the industrial system to the development of maturity, it takes a long-term process, and even the efforts of several generations to do it, and the quality of the people is the same, this is a long-term project, although China can become an industrial power at present, but the foundation is still a lot behind, and the confrontation with the West led by the United States is very reluctant.

In fact, the most worrying thing of the Chinese leadership is that the Western world will carry out a joint blockade of China under the banner of white people at least, and at that time, the United States and the Soviet Union and other countries may unite, which is by no means impossible, what the United States needs is an enemy, whether it is the red Soviet Union or the yellow China, in fact, it is possible, whoever is the biggest threat is the number one enemy.

Qiao Yu packed Greece and Turkey to Stalin at this time, and the post-war power of the Soviet Union would go deep into the Mediterranean Sea and extend to the Middle East, especially the small country of Greece, which is known as the source of Western civilization and has an important impact on the Western world.

It is also regarded by Westerners as the source of democracy, and if it is dyed red, it will definitely be unbearable for the United States and Britain and other countries, and after this step, there is only one way to choose between the United States and the Soviet Union. As long as the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union continues, China will once again have a valuable period of development opportunities, and Qiao Yu will be able to calmly complete the most important political reforms, allowing China to achieve a smooth transition of power.

After 50 years of painstaking development, with the diligence and wisdom of the Chinese, we can definitely complete the road of the West in 200 years. After completing these, China will be completely invincible, and the United States has lost the opportunity to contain China.

Qiao Yu was also not worried that Stalin would reject his proposal, because the Soviets had always been one-line thinking, and Qiao Yu threw out the bait that Stalin would never be able to refuse.

Sure enough, as Qiao Yu expected, Stalin fell into deep thought, and it took more than ten minutes before Stalin slowly spoke: "Mr. President, how can you guarantee that your promise will be fulfilled?" ”

As soon as Qiao Yu heard Stalin's question, he knew that he was already tempted, and said with a smile: "The main force in expanding the territory is still the Soviet Union itself, and China can only try to create opportunities for your country." Like Roosevelt and Churchill, I would propose the creation of lines of communication in the Indian Ocean, send troops to the Middle East, assist the Soviet Union from the flanks, and also help the North African theater. As for the rest, it depends on the planning of the Soviet side. ”

In the original time and space, the Soviet Union did fight the idea of Greece and Turkey, but because the Soviet Union suffered too heavy losses in World War II, the national strength did not allow it at all, and the United States provided a lot of assistance to the two countries to stabilize these two countries.

Stalin was also constantly thinking at this time, he originally just wanted to get more strategic materials from China, but he didn't expect Qiao Yu to throw out such a proposal, and Stalin had to weigh it carefully at this time.

"Mr. President, the Soviet Union is still in a difficult situation, and I hope that your country can provide 5,000 tanks, 100,000 trucks, enough fuel, and 2 million tons of grain ......."

Stalin the lion opened his mouth. Ask China for all kinds of supplies. Qiao Yu was not angry. Still listening with a smile on his face, there is no doubt that Stalin has agreed to his proposal, as long as the general direction is agreed, everything else is a small matter.

Qiao Yu and Stalin soon agreed on an exchange plan. China supplied the USSR with 2,000 tanks, 5,000 artillery pieces, 30,000 trucks, and a million tons of grain. These were urgently needed by the Soviet Union, and they were indispensable for the Soviet Union to build a strong armored force.

In addition, Stalin asked for two of the most important things, one was rubber, and the other was high-octane gasoline. Rubber is an out-and-out strategic material, and China occupies the Indochina Peninsula, so naturally there is no shortage of rubber. The USSR, on the other hand, was seriously short of rubber, and the stored strategic materials were almost depleted, and if they were not replenished, the USSR would have to use wooden tires.

In addition, China has long obtained the technology to produce high-grade fuel from the United States, which can produce aviation fuel in large quantities. This was also after the severe lack of the USSR, which actually lost the western industrial regions. The Soviet Union had a ninety-five percent shortage of aviation fuel.

In order to keep the Soviet Union afloat, the United States and Britain transfused blood from the Arctic Ocean to the Soviet Union at all costs, of which fuel oil is the most important material.

And China's things may not be as delicate as the United States, but they have all experienced the test of war, the leather is durable, and can endure the harsh climate of the Soviet Union, the American Sherman tank was turned into an iron coffin by the Soviet soldiers, and it is not suitable for the Soviet-German battlefield in terms of protection ability and maneuverability, and because the height of the tank is too high, it often becomes a live target, and the Soviet soldiers hate this tank very much.

China's Biao tank is relatively close to the Soviet-made tank in terms of design ideas, and the performance of the Biao IV has surpassed that of the T34, so the weapons that China aided the Soviet Union are often very popular.

After Qiao Yu and Stalin finalized the general direction, they hurriedly left Chita, Stalin was going to mobilize all forces to defend the city named after him, and Qiao Yu was going to launch a full-scale attack on Japan, because of the cooperation agreement with the Soviet Union, the time was ripe to attack the Far East, so starting from the Far East and extending south to India, the Chinese army had to operate in a long arc.

After returning to Beijing, Qiao Yu immediately convened a military meeting and made the final deployment, Shi Yi was still in charge of the Korean theater, to capture the port of Pusan as soon as possible, and drive the Japanese army out of the Korean Peninsula.

As for the Far East, it was handed over to Zhang Zuolin, Lao Zhang was already in his old age at this time, but his health was very good, and he had been in the north for a long time, so he could adapt to fighting in cold areas, and Lao Zhang frequently asked for war, Qiao Yu handed over this task to him, and the main force of the army attacking the Far East was selected from the Northeast and other regions, and the first condition was cold-tolerant.

In addition, Qiao Yu appointed Liu Xiang as the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, leading the army into India and responsible for eliminating Chandra. Long Yun was also appointed commander-in-chief of the Singapore Army Group, preparing to attack Sumatra and other places.

The Navy cannot be idle at this time, in addition to defending China's territorial waters and providing sea cover in all directions, the aircraft carrier fleet must also be ready for a decisive battle at sea at any time. All of China's shipyards are busy, a large number of ocean-going submarines have been launched, and every additional sea wolf at sea means that Japan's lifeline is threatened by one more point.

In the end, Qiao Yu ordered the establishment of a special strategic bombing force, stationed a large number of troops in Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and other places, targeting the Japanese mainland and the Nanyang Islands, as long as the Chinese army could reach the place, it would never let go.

With the widespread movement of troops, an unprecedented offensive has been unfolded. (To be continued.) )
