Chapter 1572 The Anti-Japanese War
There are Soviets, as well as Germans, and even the Germans are more powerful than the Soviets. So, is it a blessing or a curse for the Soviet Union to invest such weapons in the war?
The Soviet Union wants to achieve its strategic goals.
By using this weapon on the battlefield, let the Germans know that if the Germans want to fight again, the Soviet Union will certainly become scorched earth, but the Germans will also pay a great price. The Soviet Union is not afraid of death, but the Germans are. Although the Germanic nation has been encouraging fertility recently, the mature generation will have to wait at least twenty years.
Bombing Munich, let the Germans know that the Soviets have this ability, destroy German cities, and let hundreds of thousands of Germans die, so that the Germans can be forced to make a choice and want to die together?
If not, that's fine, let's sit down and talk.
How to talk?
"Take the current front as the dividing line." Zhukov said: "We signed an alliance with the Germans under the city."
"Crack!" Stalin's hand clapped the table: "Zhukov, what are you talking about?"
Although Zhukov was favored by Stalin, it does not mean that Zhukov can do whatever he wants, especially now, is Zhukov about to surrender?
The Soviets lost all the territories in Europe and became Asian countries. These territories are the most precious territories for the Soviets. Now, Zhukov actually said that they should give them all to the Germans?
how can that be? This is total betrayal! Even if Stalin died in battle, he would not agree to such a traitorous agreement. If it were someone else, Stalin would have taken out his pistol and killed him with his own hands.
Not even Zhukov, this is a matter of principle.
Zhukov was not afraid: "If we ask the Germans to retreat 300 kilometers, will they agree? It's just an agreement for the time being. I remember Hitler once said a word in the past, the agreement is to be torn up."
Hearing Zhukov's words, Stalin's face improved slightly, while Zhukov, who was on the side, continued to expound his views.
"If we continue to fight now, we may complete a historic turning point in Moscow and go all the way to Europe, but we will definitely lose our strength." Zhukov said: "This is also a big deal for the Americans to support us. The reason is to use us to consume the strength of the Germans, and if that's the case, why don't we think about it the other way around and simply let the Americans and the Germans consume each other?"
"There must be a war between the United States and Germany. Now, Germany has started air raids on the east coast of the United States. Now although our war with the Germans is not over, in front of Cyric, the strategy of attacking the United States must have been arranged. , as long as this side is resolved, it will cross the Atlantic and invade the United States."
Zhukov's analysis is very correct. This is also the judgment of everyone present, but it is based on the premise that the Soviet Union has disappeared. Of course, this is something that everyone does not want to think about.
"The Americans also saw this, and they desperately supported us. Now, as long as we make the Germans realize that if they fight us to the death, the Germans will suffer far more casualties than they estimate, so what should the Germans do? Choice?" Zhukov said: "For the Germans, as long as the United States does not perish, then the Western world will have the possibility of rebirth. Didn't Churchill not give up until now?"
By now, many people's hearts have begun to lean towards Zhukov.
Zhukov's meaning is obvious.
First cease fire with the Germans, and then let the United States and Germany fight. The best outcome is that the United States defeats Germany, and Germany's strength is greatly consumed, just as the Soviets can advance all the way to Berlin.
This just gave the Soviets a chance to recuperate, a rare opportunity.
The premise of doing so is to sign an armistice agreement that was unacceptable to Stalin.
By now, Zhukov had made it very clear that, for the Soviets, this decision, although disgraced, was in the best interest of all.
However, this must first obtain Stalin's consent.
Zhukov didn't speak further, and the whole basement fell silent, except for everyone's rough gasps.
Stalin only pondered for less than a minute, then raised his head: "The matter of signing the peace agreement with the Germans will not be mentioned in the future. If anyone dares to bring it up, he will go to Beria to report."
Stalin said this, and the light before everyone's eyes dimmed again.
Of course Stalin would not compromise, even if it was called a peace agreement, but in essence, it was a surrender agreement. As a proud Stalin, he would never surrender.
Even if the entire Soviet is completely scorched, even if the Soviet finally perishes, as a proud old man, he can perish, but he will never surrender. This is Stalin's answer.
Maybe he will give in and wait for the next year's counterattack. However, Stalin will not do that. If the peace agreement is signed, what will happen to the Soviets who are still in the German-occupied area?
The whole people's war of resistance must be fought to the end. There is no way out for peace. Between Germany and the Soviets, only one can get down!
Stalin was determined.
"Yes, Comrade Stalin, I was wrong," Zhukov said.
Stalin glanced at him, and for this favorite general, Stalin chose to forgive again. Although Zhukov proposed the peace, Zhukov only suggested that when he made his choice, Zhukov only saw obedience.
"The plan for the air raid on Munich was drawn up immediately," Stalin said. "We can't wait any longer to let the Germans know what it's like to have the war on their side!"
Although Stalin rejected Zhukov's proposal, but Zhukov's proposal to bomb Munich, Stalin still accepted.
Yes, the bombing of Munich is a good idea. At the same time, although Stalin will not take the initiative to ask for peace, after making the Germans pay a huge price, will the Germans come to discuss a truce with the Soviets?
In that case, you can ask for more, not necessarily to get the Germans out of all the Soviet lands, but at least to get some back?
Stalin made up his mind.
In the history of later generations, there are many evaluations of Stalin, and there are various theories, but it is undeniable that without a firm Stalin, without this spiritual leader, the Soviets could not hold on.
Current events create heroes, and heroes will affect the times. Stalin was a man of steel, and his firm perseverance led the Soviets to either victory or perish.
