Chapter Two Thousand and Sixty-Six: Hitler's Excitement

One of the reasons why some high-ranking officers of the Western Frontier Military District of the Soviet Union did not believe that the Germans attacked the Soviet Union was that there was a "Soviet-German Non-Aggression Pact" between the Soviet Union and Germany, that is, the infamous "Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact". ”

The background of this treaty is that after the Soviet Union and Germany divided Poland and determined the question of the ownership of the three Baltic states, the two countries that had taken advantage of each other, in their respective political interests, temporarily shook hands and made peace.

At that time, World War II broke out, Hitler's Germany was on the European continent, and the Anglo-French coalition was inseparable, and a large area of European territory was waiting to be conquered.

I am even more afraid that the Soviets and the Anglo-French coalition will make peace in private, join hands to deal with Germany, and from the east and west, they will wrap Germany in dumplings and fight on both sides, Germany will not have enough troops, and its national strength will not be able to consume, so it is necessary to stabilize the Soviet Union first, and then make calculations when it is free, and a form acceptable to both sides is needed to maintain the relationship between Germany and the Soviet Union.

In Stalin's view, the war on the European continent was entirely the result of the appeasement and connivance of Nazi Germany by Britain and France, and moreover, Britain and France appeased Nazi Germany. Harboring great evil intentions, intending to lead the Nazis to the east, acquiescing in Germany's annexation of the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and acquiescing in Germany's dismemberment of Poland, both of which are close to the borders of the Soviet Union, and Germany and the Soviet Union are also feuds and old rivals!

Stalin, who was extremely disappointed with Britain and France, of course, could not fail to see the conspiracy of Britain and France, and also intended to seek peace with Germany. When the Germans and Britain and France are both defeated, or rather, one side is going to hold out, it is not too late to reach out and reap the benefits, Hitler and Stalin. Both sides have their own interests and demands, so it is natural to hit it off. Thereupon. Against such a historical background, the "Soviet-German Non-Aggression Pact" has finally been freshly released.

The signing of this treaty blinded the Soviets and gave them a sense of security beyond the war on the European continent, and its impact on the strategic center of the Soviet Union was enormous. From then on, the Soviet Union, from the top leadership to the ordinary people, believed that. The war between Germany and the Soviet Union could not be fought at all for a long time, as can be seen from the Soviet Union's military deployment in the western border areas, Stalin's mobilization of troops, to the independent division of Tang Qiuli in the east, and the Japanese Kwantung Army.

On the one hand, it was the strategic deception of the German army, which was very well done, and more importantly, it was Stalin who believed too much in the "Soviet-German non-aggression pact" and believed in the intelligence that the main force of the German army was dragged by the British and French forces on the battlefield of the British Isles and could not get out for a long time.

And this is precisely the strong reason why the officers of the border military districts of the USSR with a Cheka background firmly believe that the war did not break out, and it is none other than Beria, the NKVD of the USSR and chairman of the All-Soviet Committee for the Suppression of Anti-Rebellion, who is the founder of the Cheka and a figure of the ancestral level, Comrade Stalin's closest comrade-in-arms.

The emergency military meeting of the various military districts of the Soviet Union lasted for more than three hours, and all sides quarreled endlessly, and no one dared to come to a conclusion, and no one dared to rashly report such a big matter to the General Staff before it was confirmed.

If you rashly report it, the result will be a false alarm, there is no such thing at all, Comrade Stalin was furious, and the custody was approached by the Cheka, who doesn't care what kind of commander or political commissar you are, in a word, it is possible to lose your head, and the best outcome is to lose your official position and go to prison in a labor camp, then wait and see, look at the report on the border line, is it still the same as the original?

Anxiously waiting, the news came in, which more and more confirmed a terrible fact, the Germans really attacked the Soviet Union, and the war broke out in full force!

However, until now, the commanders of the various military districts in the border areas of the Soviet Union were still undecided, and soon, the merciless facts quickly shattered the illusions of these officers, the bombers of the Luftwaffe, flying like evil eagles, roaring in terror, the black "ten" sign under the wings, impacting the vision of the Soviet soldiers, and the bombshells screaming and falling from the sky, in the cities, in the countryside, on the railway and highway lines, in all places where there were people moving.

The bombs and the German bombers in the sky woke up the dizzy minds of the Soviet commanders, blocked the chattering mouths of the hard-mouthed officers, and after the initial panic, they also sorted out the general idea, the Germans launched a war against the Soviet Union, which is undoubted, and if they were invaded, they should return fire!

As a result, one after another orders flew out from the headquarters of various military districts in the western part of the Soviet Union, and reached the various border troops of the Soviet army, but unfortunately, the order to counterattack was no longer carried out by many troops, and under the ferocious attack of the German army, the Soviet border troops, like snowmen in the sun, quickly melted, and the border troops that could perform combat missions were quickly swallowed up by the ferocious offensive frenzy of the German army, and became a fragmented corpse.

The defense line built by the Soviet army before the war is about to collapse at the first touch, the weak border line garrison, even symbolic resistance, can not be done, and even, some German mechanized troops with extremely fast advance speed have already run in front of the retreating Soviet troops, of course, the German soldiers who are like a rainbow of war are not interested in these routs, and they do not bother to stop and eliminate, they have greater goals, waiting to occupy and conquer!

As for the establishment of a second line of resistance and defense, it is even more a fantasy that the troops in their hands cannot even be assembled at the most basic level, and as soon as the war began, the Soviet army retreated on all fronts, and everywhere was in a mess, and the military district headquarters lost contact with the various units, and as for the battlefield situation, it was better to know where the main offensive direction of the German army was currently advancing.

More than four hours later, after confirming the news that Germany had launched a full-scale attack on the Soviet Union and the war broke out, it flew from the western border area to Moscow and to the General Staff of the Soviet Army, and at this time the German offensive units of all roads had already advanced more than 80 kilometers on average in the territory of the Soviet Union.

At about six o'clock in the morning of April 10, in the Reichstag building in Berlin, Germany, in the office, with anxiety and excitement, Hitler, who was looking forward to the news from the front, finally looked forward to the first war report after drinking countless cups of Chinese tea.

Chief of the General Staff of the German Army, von ? Field Marshal Strongs pushed open the door of the Führer's office, and the huge movement startled the German party, government, and military bigwigs in the room, including Hitler, all of them were full of excitement, and they all cast angry eyes on this handful of old German field marshals.

Feng? Marshal Strongs, completely ignoring the vicious gaze of the crowd, waved the telegram in his hand, and cried out: "My Führer, gentlemen, good news! - Great news! The commander of the unit attacking Russia sent a telegram that our German army had advanced more than 80 kilometers into Russian territory, and that the resistance of the Soviet army was extremely weak, and that our army was advancing smoothly! ”

Hitler was the first to get excited, waving his arms excitedly, and walking rapidly back and forth in the office, his voice sharp and sharp, "Hear me, gentlemen, Strongs has brought good news, I have long expected that our great German Imperial Army will definitely succeed!" - It will work! Those ugly Russian gorillas, vulnerable, in front of our army - vulnerable!

Other German party, government, and military bigwigs also stood up one after another and shouted "Hi! Hitler! Then, there was a stormy round of applause, and Goebbels, the propaganda minister of the Nazi Party, muttered nervously and had tears in his eyes.

Hitler gasped for breath with excitement, stopped suddenly, his eyes were blazing, flashing with crazy light, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Goebbels, at this great historical moment, the news of the victory of our German army should be known to all Germans, and let the people of the whole country share this shocking joy. ”

Goebbels's thin body, as if infused with a miraculous potion, appeared very energetic, and replied in the language of singing: "My Führer, your decision is so wise, I have a bold request, at this great moment in history, such a great victory, as long as you, my Führer, are the only one qualified to announce the news to the German people, and no one else is qualified to do so!" ”

"Do you know how the German people want to hear you? Please, great Führer, meet the urgent hopes of the people! ”

Hey, look at what Dr. Goebbels said, the sycophant really shot the perfect Cheng dù, the super master among the masters!

Hitler, apparently very useful, laughed triumphantly and said: "Then please please, my Mr. Minister of Propaganda, go and prepare the broadcast script!" ”
