If we now compare Stalin's basement with other places, it is possible that the general headquarters of any German army group would be much more decent than Stalin's basement. The dim and illuminated lights always shook and trembled with the distant shelling, and the flickering feeling made everyone inside nervous and desperate.

Stalin, escorted by his henchman Zaitsev, walked in the long tunnel, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty corridors, heard far and wide. As an infrastructure project with the responsibility of air defense, the Moscow Metro has formed a considerable scale at this moment, and now it exists like an underground palace, not only providing storage and air defense, but also shouldering a series of roles such as mobilizing troops and housing the wounded.

You must know that this subway can definitely be regarded as a miracle of human civilization in the future, not only spacious and bright but also luxuriously decorated, and the subway project buried deep in Moscow actually shoulders the heavy responsibility of preventing nuclear weapons at the same time. And this huge complex of nuclear fortifications was finally built to a length of more than 300 kilometers, which can provide corresponding air defense protection for 4 million people......

In many places, it was even dug to a depth of more than 50 meters, which was definitely another miracle of human civilization when construction began in 1935. I have to admit that in a country where centralization is relatively obvious, there is definitely an inherent advantage in building such a large-scale and purposeful project.

Stalin was dressed in a neat military uniform today, and although he was not wearing an armed belt, it was still evident that he had been carefully cleaned up. The leader of the Soviet Union once spoke his word on this land, and anyone who opposed him had already been sent to God. He walked slowly forward step by step, passing one after another strangely shaped lights, and from time to time guards stood up and saluted, watching them pass by.

"Comrade Zaitsev...... Are you sure that my voice can be heard throughout the country and even the world in the current radio station?" asked Zaitsev, who was following him, as Stalin walked forward. The battle was still going on outside, and just a few minutes earlier, Zhukov had reported by phone that the two sides were fighting fiercely in the Foreign Ministry building, and Stalin simply asked Zhukov to hold every place, and then hung up the phone in his hand.

"Comrade Stalin, I don't know how many radios can pick up this station, but this is the safer radio station we can find at the moment. Zaitsev followed Stalin forward, and after hearing Stalin's question, he hurriedly replied.

The German bombardment hit the ground in the distance, creating a strange dull sound in the tunnel, and because the power supply was not very stable, the lights here trembled slightly, and it looked as if they would go out at any moment. Stalin did not ask any more questions, but continued to walk, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, he continued to speak, not knowing whether he was asking Zaitsev, but only himself: "Can Zhukov's troops hold the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs...... Will he be able to hold on there?"

......

In the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Soviet soldiers were using light machine guns in their hands to set up a hole blown out by artillery shells, and were firing wildly at the German soldiers who were attacking not far away. He emptied the disc-shaped drum on the machine gun, and with the help of the co-shooter, replaced the empty disc.

"Ammunition! We're running out of ammunition! Go to the battalion headquarters and get some more! or the Germans will rush up!" shouted the co-shooter, placing the last disc on the light machine gun, to the riflemen who were shooting behind the window.

The Deg Galev light machine gun is arguably one of the best light machine guns equipped by the Soviet infantry, and it has a number of distinctive features compared to the German MG-42 machine gun. For example, this light machine gun is fed by a large unique feed disc, which makes the machine gun very recognizable in appearance.

Because it is fed by a 47-round cartridge cartridge, this machine gun has a superior fire durability compared to the Czech ZB-26 machine gun. However, this machine gun was not as good as the lighter ZB-26 in other characteristics, so it was only in the hands of the Soviet Red Army, playing a role in making up for the gap in firepower.

"The last time I went to get ammunition, they said there was no more ammunition!" one of the infantrymen shouted at the light machine gun's secondary shooter after pulling the bolt of his gun and topping it with a new bullet. As he shouted, a bullet flew in from the window to his left, hitting a Soviet soldier next to him.

The person who was hit fell on his back, knocking the Soviet soldier who had replied to him to a stumbling side. He looked back to see who had deliberately hit him at such a moment, only to see a bloodied side face at his feet.

Before he could react, in the corridor behind him, a Soviet soldier with a steel helmet missing rushed into the house with a rifle and hurriedly shouted to about ten friendly soldiers in the room: "The German tanks rushed over from the side, and in a while we may be surrounded here." ”

His words caused a commotion, after all, everyone knew what it meant to be surrounded by the enemy in a street battle in the city, they would run out of ammunition and food, and then be beaten into a sieve with submachine guns by the German soldiers who rushed in. Many people here have seen similar scenes, after all, at a time when the battle is fought now, there are no so-called recruits.

"Keep shooting! What are you doing?" a Soviet officer fired a round from his rifle in the direction of the Germans, and then pulled the bolt while shouting at his men in the room who were stunned: "You still want to retreat? Where are you going? It's only a two-minute drive from the Kremlin!"

Yes, it only takes two minutes by car...... This may also include the time it takes to start the car. They have no capital to retreat, and there is no possibility of retreat, and today they are all going to die here, becoming one of the countless people who have died in this city.

So one soldier after another picked up the weapons in their hands again, and pulled the trigger in their hands on the German soldiers who had already swarmed up. The gunfire was as dense as raindrops, enveloping every cubic meter of air in the city, carrying a scorching temperature, piercing through the soft skin and cutting through the hard bones.

......

"Ahem...... Airplanes...... Can I start?" Stalin asked the staff member next to him, facing the rudimentary microphone in front of him, and his question made the other party nervous for a while, and he finally made his core meaning clear: "You...... You...... OK...... It's time to go!"

"Every Soviet person who can hear my voice, I am Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin. I'm giving you a speech in Moscow right now!" Stalin confirmed, and then read into the microphone the text of the speech he had been writing for many days.

"All those who still have the backbone of the Russians should stand up at such a time, take up the weapons in your hands, and shoot at the aggressors! We are a fighting nation! We have our own honor and perseverance! We should fight bravely for our homeland, not submit to the feet of the enemy! The Soviet people are great and will never give in! All people should put aside their prejudices and unite and fight for the Soviet Union to the last moment!"

"I know that at times like these, people are afraid! If no one person can stand up first, the whole nation will be dead until it is slaughtered. So I'm going to be the first to stand up, and I'm going to be in Moscow! I'm not going anywhere! I'm going to fight here! I'm going to fight until the whole great Russian nation begins to revolt!"

"That lowly Yuan of Germany, do you think you have won? No, you are still a long, long way from victory! This distance is far enough that you will not be able to finish it...... In cold Siberia, at least 1 million Soviet people are preparing to fight back, and further and further in the Far East, 2 million or more troops will join the holy war for freedom!"

"Do you think that the obedient-looking rebels will remain silent? You are wrong! The soul of the Russian nation will eventually be awakened, and they will finally stand up and continue to fight against Germany! In the end, the Soviet Union will be reborn like an immortal phoenix, and I will be remembered by everyone when it is reborn!"

"At that time, the million-strong army that remembered me would have trampled Berlin to ruins, and your statue would have been pushed to the ground! The great Soviet people would on your statue, even your grave would have been pried open, and your corpse would repent of the crimes you committed today!"

"Don't make me wait any longer! Brave Soviet people! Rise up now to prove your courage, to prove that we are invincible, to prove that we are not afraid of any strong enemy, to prove that we dare to shed blood and sacrifice! Get up, I will stand with you! Get up, the Soviet Union is with you!"

Stalin shouted hysterically into the microphone, waving his arms frantically as he shouted. He wanted to use his speech to inspire the people who had given up, and he wanted to use his spirit to infect the cowards who had betrayed. He is giving a speech with his life, pinning the last trace of attachment to this world in his heart, and every word represents this person's entrustment to the country to which he has dedicated his life.
