Chapter 940

Khrushchev came back eight hours later. After he finished the telegram, he took a car and went to the nearby air force base. He found a special plane and sent him back to Moscow, but it was a pity that the plane It was relatively slow, and I added oil once in the middle.

When he got back to Moscow, Khrushchev jumped out of the car and ran inside. He was so exhausted that he ran to Stalin almost in one breath. Then, he involuntarily knelt down.

"Comrade Stalin, I'm guilty, because I didn't discover the German conspiracy in advance, and let our troops jump into the fire pit!" Khrushchev beat his chest with both hands, crying with tears.

"Hurry up and put away your tears and tell me what's going on. If you can't explain clearly, hum!" Stalin said to Khrushchev after seeing through Khrushchev's trick.

Khrushchev wiped away his tears and said, "We've been tricked. We thought the Germans were unprepared, but who knows, the Germans have long been prepared. They have deployed quite terrifying cannons inside and behind the fortresses. They can destroy one of our artillery positions with one shot!"

"Comrade Khrushchev, please pay attention to your words, don't deliberately exaggerate!" Voroshinov said: "One cannon, destroying an artillery position, do you think we are all children?"

This battle was proposed by Khrushchev, in order to save face for the Soviets, and at the same time to deter the Germans, so that the Germans would not interfere in Finland's affairs, but the current result is the opposite. of.

Khrushchev left his troops and ran back alone, but he might not be able to survive. Everything depends on Comrade Stalin's judgment. In order to survive, Khrushchev deliberately fabricated facts and exaggerated the strength of the Germans.

One cannon destroys one artillery position, who will lie?

"No, I didn't lie!" Khrushchev said: "That cannon, capable of hitting dozens of kilometers, was ambushed a dozen kilometers behind the Brest Fortress. Our air force found the cannon. location, but unfortunately not able to destroy it."

"Is that gun bigger than a naval gun?" Voroshinov asked.

"Yes, we infer that its diameter is about 800 mm." Khrushchev said.

"Khrushchev, stop arguing!" Stalin's face was ugly, and he finally couldn't help but speak, stopping Khrushchev's remarks.

Naval artillery, at most, can be used as a fixed fort on land, usually on the coastline. Who has heard of large-caliber naval artillery in the inland?

Moreover, it is still eight hundred millimeters! What a joke! The largest of the battleship's guns was just over 400 millimeters, and Stalin couldn't bear it any longer.

"Comrade Stalin, I'm not lying!" Khrushchev felt his liver tremble: "In their first wave, they suppressed our rear artillery positions, and then, after our ground troops attacked , In their fortress, there are also terrible cannons. One cannon can kill hundreds of us. We have suffered heavy casualties. Just when the infantry was about to give up the attack, a German armored force bypassed the woods. , surrounded us..."

"Enough, come, take Khrushchev down!" Stalin roared.

Khrushchev felt his legs weaken immediately, Stalin was already angry with him, and his political career might be ruined!

Outside, two guards came in and dragged Khrushchev out like a dead dog. There was no way. Khrushchev, whose legs were weak, could no longer stand up, and he wanted to say: " Comrade Stalin, everything I say is true..."

It was easy to wait until Khrushchev came back, but what he said was simply appalling!

When Khrushchev's voice disappeared, Stalin looked at his men and said, "Do you believe what Khrushchev just said?"

Voroshinov and Budyonny shook their heads, only the young Zhukov did not speak.

"Zhukov, what do you think?" Stalin asked.

"Comrade Stalin, I think Khrushchev's words may be correct." Zhukov said with a serious face.

Just now, Stalin was very angry at Khrushchev's words, just for the matter itself, and Stalin knew Khrushchev, and he would not lie on this kind of issue.

If Khrushchev is right, then the problem is serious!

The Germans are fully prepared, that is to say, their own plans have been leaked during this period of time. Who leaked it?

Stalin's eyes looked at everyone present. Only a few of them knew about this kind of secret. Although the front-line troops were frequently mobilized, no one knew that they were going to attack the Brest Fortress.

Everyone who was seen seemed to know what Stalin was thinking, and quickly shook his head, what a joke! Tukhachevsky's group has long since disappeared, and everyone present has not had an affair with Germany!

"There are many possibilities for the leakage of intelligence. For example, it is possible that the Germans deciphered our telegram code. I suggest that we immediately change the codebook and encryption method." Beria, who has not spoken, spoke.

In the last major purge, enough people had died, and the quality of the army had deteriorated drastically, as can be seen through the Finnish War and the current battle of the Brest Fortress.

The suspicion of the great leader represented a bloody storm. Now, Beria took the initiative to stand up and mentioned this possibility.

Stalin nodded. Indeed, everyone present was credible. It seemed that it was indeed a problem with the telegram password. It was really speechless.

"What we need to solve now is how to deal with this situation." Zhukov continued: "Our army was captured by the Germans, what should we do next?"

The scene was calm, and everyone knew what Zhukov meant.

At the beginning, with Khrushchev's instigation, everyone was thinking about how the Germans would be humiliated after the Brest Fortress was recaptured! How to tell the Germans not to continue to meddle in Finland.

As a result, now the Soviets have failed, and they have failed miserably. Even the coach has been captured!

Soviet, what should we do?

If you continue to be tough, you will have to increase your troops and continue to fight in Brest. Then, a border conflict is likely to turn into a war of annihilation!

The Soviets are not ready for a war, not even Finland has been conquered, let alone a war with Germany?

However, if you don't continue to be tough, should you just admit defeat? How could the Soviets swallow this breath! Played again by the Germans!
