Chapter 711: Vladivostok

From 1937 onwards, the Soviet Union's civil war was at a stalemate. After an initial period of panic, Stalin finally stabilized his position, and then the rebellion ceased completely. At the same time, the treatment of the army was expanded, and military discipline was strictly enforced.

Together with the weapons that Blyukhel had procured from the Wehrmacht, the war with Trotsky did not suffer any greater losses. In fact, Stalin's ability to stabilize the front also had a lot to do with the gradual emergence of factional struggles within Trotsky.

Trotsky was not a man of organization, and he and his senior members were initially united by Stalin's ostracism and even persecution.

They themselves did not expect that they would be able to occupy Moscow so quickly, and everyone was excited! It is only a matter of time to think that the annihilation of Vladivostok Dalin in Chapter 711 is only a matter of time, and that with the excitement comes the question of the distribution of power.

Now that Stalin is dying, how he will get the lion's share of the pie in the new regime has become a matter of everyone's mind. Trotsky did not have Stalin's political skills, much less the courage and execution of the force.

As a result, there were signs of factional strife beginning to emerge internally, and the ministries began to tighten their forces. They didn't want their descendants to lose too much in the war against Stalin.

What they wanted more was to be able to maintain enough bargaining chips to gain power after Stalin was eliminated, and their mentality was keenly perceived by Stalin! Given the opportunity, Stalin would never let it go.

He first asked not to counterattack, and then prepared to let Blyukhel lead the team to the three eastern provinces again to purchase! He is ready to gather all his forces for a big counterattack! Send all these "Soviet traitors" to hell!

The Germans, on the other hand, were aware of the changes in the Soviet Union, or rather, that this change was actually secretly promoted by Berlin. A strong, united Soviet Union was not what they wanted.

The fragmented Soviet Union will not become a threat to Vladivostok in the German form Chapter 711!

Stalin had purchased a bit too much from the Wehrmacht this time, and he had no money left to pay for it. To this end, he convened an internal meeting.

"Everybody talks, how should we pay for the funds in the three eastern provinces?!" At the meeting, Stalin looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice. He knows. Now is not a good time to do a good job. If you force all these people to Trotsky, you will really be doomed.

And everyone is silent, how can they be silent?! It is absolutely impossible for the three eastern provinces to give arrears, and even if they have delivered all the treasures that they plundered from China during the Russian period, what else can they do with the three eastern provinces.

Of course. Everyone also has a bottom in their hearts. Stalin is going crazy! The sign of his madness is that he also has to make a large number of arms deals with the three eastern provinces, so what are his chips?! No doubt! Definitely territorial!

Where is the most strategically valuable thing in the hands of Stalin?! Do you need to ask?! Vladivostok for sure!

But who would dare to bring up this matter?! Lenin said back then, no one can give Vladivostok! This was a question of strategy for the entire Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union needed an ice-free port, and Vladivostok was the port that best met this requirement. This port must not be let out. Can't let it out under any circumstances.

Therefore, everyone thought in their hearts that Stalin was crazy!

But when you think about it, Stalin's approach is understandable. If Trotsky were to call them. That's the real end. What if there is Vladivostok then?! Make an escape caliber?!

This was definitely not what Stalin wanted, what he wanted was a complete defeat of Trotsky! Take back Moscow, which belongs to him, and build a Soviet that belongs to him!

This was the biggest difference between Stalin and Trotsky, and if Trotsky had been in Stalin's position, he would not have dared to make such a decision. He would even choose to have the troops surrender and go into exile himself.

But Stalin was different, he would have chosen to fight to the end! He will definitely not compromise, what is it to sacrifice some interests?! What he wants to build is a huge empire!

Even if Vladivostok was handed over to the three eastern provinces. After defeating Trotsky, Stalin would have considered other means to get it back. And for the time being, in exchange for the weapons he needs in Vladivostok, Stalin will not hesitate to do it.

"Why don't you all speak?!" Stalin looked at the crowd: "Now that the time has come for us to live and die, don't you have any constructive opinions at all?!" ”

Although Stalin is no longer a word. But Jiwei is especially here! Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, you are still Klimant, whom Stalin trusted so much. Marshal Voroshilov stood up and said with a hard head.

"To be honest, we don't have the capital to trade with the three eastern provinces now. From gold to the Tsarist period, most of the things have been sent for trading......"

Stalin was obviously very dissatisfied with Voroshilov's words, he frowned and pursed his lips without saying a word. Voroshilov was not a fool, he naturally knew what Stalin wanted to hear. But it takes a lot of courage to say that! If one is not good, then it will be infamous by history!

Yes, Stalin himself would never have said this. It can only be said by someone else's mouth, and he can be "forced" to pass the resolution with a slight objection. This guarantees his authority.

Voroshilov is now the deputy chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the chairman of the Committee of Defense of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR, which is clearly Stalin's extreme trust in him.

Of course. If he doesn't say something, then that trust will undoubtedly disappear.

"I remember that Comrade Lenin said that the Treaty of Aihun and the Sino-Russian Treaty of Beijing were unequal treaties and should be revoked. I think that the current Chinese already has the ability to manage Vladivostok......"

When Voroshilov said this, he suddenly sat down in his chair with a pale face as if his strength had been drained! I can't help but smile bitterly in my heart, how will history evaluate me......

"Comrade Voroshilov, this proposal is not good. To know. Vladivostok is our only ice-free port! Our access to the sea, and Comrade Lenin also said that we will not give anyone to Vladivostok. ”

This is what Stalin said, and of course others naturally knew how to deal with it. This is the acting that everyone knows by heart, even the recorder knows that this must be acting.

But it is necessary for him to describe Stalin's words in a serious tone.

"The problem we are facing now is that the traitors of the Soviets are destroying this country created by Comrade Lenin and other comrades who died for it, and Comrade Lenin in Vladivostok has expressed his position! We will return it to China at the right time, which was the ...... that Tsarist imperialism occupied back then"

Stalin's words were not finished, and another Marshal of the Soviet Union, Semyon. Mikhailovich. Budyonny immediately spoke! Since someone has started it, it is natural that someone should take it.

The greatest responsibility for Voroshilov has been shouldered, even if history evaluates that he was the first to be unlucky! But if he did not express his position, then Stalin would definitely have a pimple in his heart.

Budyonny naturally knew what to do, so he gushed out all sorts of reasons. The point is that this was once proposed by Comrade Lenin, which can be regarded as finding a legal cloak for Stalin.

At the same time, it can be regarded as a kind of exculpation for himself, Comrade Lenin did not leave a will and say that Vladivostok will not be returned, right?! Moreover, in official public appearances, Lenin also declared that he would return it, and he and others only thought that now was the right time.

In this way, even Trotsky is not easy to talk about, and not to return Vladivostok, which Lenin said in private. You can't always put it on the table, otherwise your theory of "permanent revolution" and "revolution together" will collapse.

You occupy someone else's territory and declare that you will not return it, but instead ask someone else to join you in the revolution?! This will definitely elicit a strong reaction! So, even if the news got out, all Trotsky could do was keep quiet.

Maybe he will have to support his theory!

"What you say makes a lot of sense, so who is responsible for this matter?!" Stalin got what he wanted to hear, smiled and nodded and glanced at everyone.

Blyukhel knew that this would definitely happen to him. His face was a little red, and his lips trembled a little! He was in charge of such a negotiation, which made him feel very disappointed.

But he also knew that Budyonny and Voroshilov had expressed their stance on what would be the consequences if they didn't act again.

"Comrade Stalin, I'll do this matter for me......" Blyukhel smiled bitterly at Stalin: "I'll go alone, I'm sure the tiger will be happy to accept our proposal......"

Blyukhel's heart was full of anger, and what he said was naturally unpleasant! Stalin frowned, but said without saying anything, and said with relief: "Since you are willing to take on the responsibility of this history, I naturally have no reason to shirk it." I believe that with your ability, you can do this well. ”

Stalin's words are also hidden needles, and the meaning is very clear: you Blyukhel don't want to get out, you also have a share in the historical responsibility of the negotiations you have done!

Blyukhel's face was pale, not knowing what to say. I trembled for a while before I said to Stalin: "Then, let me pack up and set off...... I'll get back as soon as I can. ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the conference room tremblingly without saying hello. Looking at Blyukhel's back, Stalin's eyes flashed with a different taste. rs!!!
