v1 Chapter 145: flexibility struggle

"But?" Stalin put down the information in his hand, glanced at the waiting Beria and asked, "Comrade Beria, what is the scope of the target's confidentiality level?"

"In the Ministry of Internal Affairs, apart from myself, only the first-level political commissar, General Merkulov, knows." Beria quickly replied, "The level of confidentiality is still quite high, and the underground workers next to the target are all direct Direct contact with the first-level political commissar is absolutely impossible to expose."

"Don't say anything absolutely absolutely." For some reason, Stalin had reservations about the sentence that there is absolutely no possibility of exposure, which made Beria feel nervous all of a sudden.

For example, if someone who is a senior security cadre is not trusted by the highest level, it is a very scary thing. Could it be that Stalin was already fed up with the first-level political commissar, General Merkulov? Or distrust the entire Ministry of the Interior?

When Beria was thinking about it, Stalin said with ease, "This way we can determine a very important thing and change the way of struggle. In this devastating war, the only country that stays out of it is the The United States, Britain and France have all been hit hard to varying degrees, and these countries in Europe urgently need blood transfusions from the colonies, and the biggest problem they face is reconstruction, which is the same as our Soviets.”

"Comrade Stalin's views on this matter are consistent with the information reported." Beria unconditionally agreed, "We have received news that the military forces of France and the Netherlands have returned to Asia and are trying to restore colonial rule in Southeast Asia. The U.S. has no objection on the surface."

"Then the attitude of our Soviet Union is to oppose it on the surface!" Stalin expressed his attitude succinctly.

"Then, Comrade Stalin, what level of support and assistance is appropriate?" Beria immediately asked, and Stalin himself had the power to decide such matters.

"Give all moral support, except for help and assistance." Stalin chuckled, "Solidity does not cost anything, but fighting the Americans does cost. We have to go a step further and ask the Americans to occupy Japan by partition, of course. Americans won't agree, but we're just saying, Hokkaido will be separated from Japan forever, and the Japanese will never see Hokkaido again? It's like they can't see their ears."

Of course Stalin knew? The Americans who now have nuclear bombs are defiant, but the good news is that Britain, France, and the colonial powers of Europe? It seems that they don't want to get involved in this muddy water.

Europe and the United States are not one heart? Is there any benefit? This is of course, at least in a short time Europe will not follow the United States to start a third world war.

The topic of the third world war? It was not a taboo topic at all in 1945. Many people thought that a world war would break out sooner or later? There were also many such voices in the Soviet Union.

In fact, even Stalin himself was not completely at ease with the current situation in Europe. He believed that the possibility of a world war would exist, especially after the United States had a nuclear bomb in hand, the threat was more intuitive.

So Zhukov invited Eisenhower to visit Moscow in his own name? He made a friendly gesture to ease the relationship between the two sides? Eisenhower just left.

Eisenhower was invited to the Soviet Union. Accompanied by Zhukov, he watched the opening ceremony with the Soviet commander in Moscow's Red Square. Facing the cheering crowd, the two embraced and waved? Everyone agreed that the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union close.

In their spare time, the two talked for a long time, from the Battle of Leningrad to the Battle of Moscow? From the African battlefield to the Normandy landings, they understood and respected each other even more. Much to their delight? Japan surrendered during Eisenhower's visit. For the battle-hardened veteran? It's a success.

"At an appropriate time, Comrade Zhukov can be allowed to pay a return visit to the United States. Didn't Eisenhower invite him." Stalin said calmly, "The dispute with the United States on the Japanese issue and Comrade Zhukov's return visit are not in conflict. Struggle, but also pay attention to methods and methods.”

At present, on the premise of preserving the interests of Eastern Europe, Stalin felt that he could adopt a moderating attitude towards Western European countries. Because it is not only the Western European countries that need to be rebuilt, the Soviet Union also needs to be rebuilt.

Even like the Soviet invasion that Western European countries feared, the Soviet Union was also afraid of the outbreak of the Third World War and a joint invasion by the United States, Britain and France. Since Germany launched a sneak attack on the Soviet Union, the top and bottom of the Soviet Union have distrusted these imperialists.

Now these imperialist countries are equally untrustworthy, but can be divided and disintegrated. Delay the union of these imperialist countries.

On the other hand, in Eastern Europe, Stalin believed that an offensive and defensive strategy could be adopted, using the Korean peninsula as a bargaining chip to strive for Japan's interests as much as possible, so that the United States would recognize that the Soviet occupation of Hokkaido was only a minimum goal.

In fact, at this time, the Americans did not have much presence in North Korea, because North Korea had been under the colonial rule of the Japanese before, so naturally there could be no American presence, and the Americans would not be able to put a lot of military The power is projected to the Korean peninsula, but the Soviets are different. They already have a large army in Siberia, and they can send their divisions south to throw their forces at any time.

In fact, the Soviet Union did deploy military forces in North Korea earlier than the United States.

If there is no nuclear bomb, the Soviet Union, which has already entered the Korean peninsula, can completely kick the United States out.

But with the nuclear bomb, it's different. Compared with before the nuclear bomb, the attitude of the United States is like the sky and the ground, explaining what it means to turn a face faster than a book.

Stalin was even fortunate that at the Potsdam Conference, he accepted the black box operation initiated by the United Kingdom. If there is no agreement for a long time, the United States, now holding a nuclear bomb, will definitely find an opportunity to humiliate the Soviet Union endlessly.

On the issues of Japan and the Korean peninsula, Stalin had predicted that he would definitely be pressured by the United States. This time is definitely not the warmth when the world war was not over, but full of gunpowder.

There are differences between Japan and the Korean peninsula. The Soviet Union can follow the previous agreement to allow the peninsula south of the 38th parallel to be surrendered by the United States, because the Korean peninsula is part of the mainland anyway. Even if the Americans are allowed in, the ground forces will have an overwhelming advantage. The Soviet Union should not be afraid either.

But Hokkaido is different. Compared with the weak Soviet Red Navy, the US Navy is simply an army from the future. If the United States can admit the fact that the Soviet Union is occupied, in exchange for the Soviet Union's advantage over the U.S. military on the Korean peninsula, it does not seem to be a bad result.

In theory, Stalin is not going to give up anywhere, but before the successful development of the Soviet Union's nuclear bomb, he must now swallow his breath to a certain extent, and even prepare to comply with the withdrawal of Iran's troops, instead of intimidating Pahlavi, maintaining imperial Russia The tacit understanding of the period and the division of the North and South of the United Kingdom is enough.

Now the Soviet Union should adopt a moderate attitude towards Britain and France. Even if it is to do something, it cannot do it in Europe. Instead, it will use its cards to fight against the United States in the Far East, where Britain and France have no immediate interests.

As for the black-box operation agreement at the Potsdam Conference, it is fully recognized, and a clear timetable for the withdrawal of troops is given, and it maintains liaison with the United Kingdom and the United States, especially the United Kingdom, to ensure the transparency of the withdrawal of troops.

"Nuclear bombs are weapons like the Soviet Union or not in the United States. Our nuclear bomb project must be brought out as soon as possible, in order to change the current weakness in our hearts and let the Americans keep their voices quieter when they talk to us." Stalin used a very serious look. Looking at Bella said.

Beria was the head of the Soviet nuclear program. As early as during the Moscow Defense War, Beria had accumulated a thick pile of atomic energy intelligence in his hands. British and American spies in all directions have sent back news that in the next two years, it is very likely that British nuclear bombs will be researched.

According to Soviet intelligence, the first to develop a nuclear bomb would be the United Kingdom, but no one expected that the British nuclear bomb program was terminated and incorporated into the Manhattan Project.

As the Soviet NKVD, Beria had detailed information on nuclear bomb research in Britain and the United States, but Stalin was not interested in nuclear bomb research during the war, so Beria had no way to conduct research.

A loud noise from the other side of the ocean woke Stalin, and the two nuclear bombs that later exploded in Japan really made Stalin realize how serious a misjudgment can be.

If it wasn't for the British who always blackmailed the USSR with US nukes for their own benefit ~lightnovelpub.net~, the USSR would have lost more once the US started real blackmailing.

"The project has been steadily advancing, and we must calm down the United States as soon as possible." Beria gave a solemn assurance.

"Tell Comrade Molotov to set a time to send a delegation to visit Western European countries, and France and the United Kingdom are important destinations." Stalin nodded, and the conversation began to express his goodwill towards Britain and France, "Let the Red Flag Song and Dance Troupe Follow along and conduct interviews in the form of artistic exchange, which is simpler.”

The British-occupied city of Bonn, a model of reconstruction in the eyes of the British Empire media, as an important member of the Trade Commission, tirelessly as a liaison officer to Europe, is unable to extricate himself from the sandwich life, and the life of the occupying army is so beautiful.

Loyal civil servants of the Empire are now being corroded by dragoons. If he hadn't maintained his original intention, Alan Wilson would not have persisted until now.

But there are only a handful of times when I have a good life. Alan Wilson is a principled person, and he is very particular about the spirit of contract. He won't be like other foreigners in Germany who cheat girls with just a few cigarettes. He still wanted the two sisters to live without worries before leaving with confidence.
