January 2, Yongzeng City, the capital of Eastern Han Province.
Yonzen City is currently the most important industrial center city in the Urals and Western Siberia. It is located on the banks of the Iset River at the eastern foot of the Ural Mountains. It was founded in 1723. In the 18th century, it was located in Siberia connecting Europe and Asia. It became a famous metallurgical industry center on the transportation thoroughfare. In the first half of the 19th century, the metallurgical industry drove the rapid development of the city. By the last quarter of the 19th century, the city became the economic, financial and cultural center of the Urals, as well as An important hub of the railway to Perm, Tumen and Chelyabinsk.
At the beginning of this century, the city was embroiled in social unrest that affected the entire Russia. During the Soviet Civil War, Bolshevik revolutionaries shot Tsar Nicholas II and his family to death in the Ibatev Palace. In 1923 , the city became the center of the Greater Ural region. In the 1920s and 1930s, nearly a hundred large factories were built and rebuilt in the city, and more than 60 research institutes and colleges and universities of industrial branches were created in the city. The city's industrial potential was greatly improved. It was significantly strengthened and became the leading industrial city in Siberia, with a population reaching 400,000 before the Far Eastern Republic split.
After the Far East Republic declared independence, the fierce civil war that lasted for more than two years left many areas in the Ural Mountains desolate and depressed. However, as the temporary capital of the Far East Republic, the Central Government of the Far East moved a large number of people to Yongzen City, and the east and west Most of the relocated heavy industrial machinery also settled here, causing the number of large-scale factories to exceed the 200 mark. Before the outbreak of the Soviet-German War, the city had an unprecedented population of more than 700,000.
But the good times didn't last long. As the Far Eastern Republic announced the cancellation of the war, most residents chose to move south to Central Asia, Southeast Asia and the subcontinent in South China. The mechanical facilities were also consciously hidden. The few remaining people... The Soviet Russian government, which had lost a lot of territory after successive defeats, was in urgent need of a large amount of human resources to fill the factories that had been moved to the western Ural region. The Suban Central Committee forced the entire family to move to Kazan, Saratov, Molotov and other cities.
After the fall of Moscow in early September last year, Stalin, in a secret meeting with An Yi, "sold" the area east of the Ural Mountains to Nanhua for 10 billion yuan in exchange for combat supplies, the Soviet governments in the eastern foothills of the Ural Mountains and various parts of Western Siberia They all implemented a cruel relocation policy. Except for those designated by the Nanhua government, all other residents, young and old, moved to the western Ural Mountains, and the city fell completely.
In Yongzeng City today, even though 50,000 workers were urgently transferred from various places to resume military production. At the same time, 50,000 to 60,000 immigrants from Northeast China, Jiangnan and other places moved here, but the whole city still seems very quiet, especially in the cold winter when it is covered with ice and snow. city situation.
The average temperature in Yongzang City in January is minus 24 degrees, and everything is covered with snow. It is impossible to hold a grand welcome ceremony outdoors. Therefore, when Stalin's special train arrived at Yongzang Railway Station at nine o'clock in the morning, An Yi A brief and concise welcome ceremony was held in the large waiting room of the station.
The ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner. Stalin, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, stood on the reviewing stand, listening to the solemn singing of the "Internationale" rang out in the station, and looked at the young An Yi who accompanied him, lifting the steel with vigorous movements. When the gun saluted the honor guard passing by the reviewing stand, Stalin, who had just recovered the capital and was looking forward to victory, couldn't help but feel unusually envious.
Nowadays, South China has a strong army and not only strong industrial strength. Its territory also includes some of the most famous granaries in the world, and its war potential is endless. On the other hand, the Soviet Union lost Ukraine, the most fertile land in Europe, and two-thirds of its factories fell into
The only thing Germany can use to scare people now is probably its army of more than 10 million people!
However, the most indispensable thing in South China is population. According to the feedback from the Cheka and GRU, the Chinese population in South China now exceeds 300 million. Although the other subcontinent, Myanmar, Malaya and other places with a population of about 100 million have a population of about 100 million.
Ethnic groups will gradually revolt in the future, but now they are all under the control of the central government of South China, and South China can mobilize a large number of troops at any time.
Historically, Stalin was very arrogant and looked down upon Chiang Kai-shek. That was because the Soviet Union single-handedly carried almost the entire German army and made a huge contribution to the Allies. However, at this time and space, the Soviet army suffered consecutive defeats. Not only did Stalingrad fail.
However, Moscow is also in danger, and because it lost the Far East, Eastern Siberia and Central Asia early, the so-called vast strategic depth no longer exists.
For the current Soviet Union, it is unwise to be enemies of two powerful countries at the same time. Once South China is offended, Germany attacks from west to east, and South China attacks from east to west, and the Soviet Union will cease to exist.
Because of this, Stalin took great pains to "sell" all the areas east of the Ural Mountains to Nanhua to create a good relationship and at the same time exchange for the most important combat supplies.
In Stalin's view at the time, the most unreliable thing in the world was a treaty. Which European country the Germans invaded did not sign a peace treaty with them? As long as the hidden dangers on the Western Front are eliminated, the Soviet Union's strength can surpass South China.
When the time comes, we will use a powerful army to take everything back and let the other side understand that the advantages of Soviet Russia are not so easy to take advantage of!
However, as the news of the Anjia Army's consecutive victories in West Asia came, Stalin keenly discovered that the Soviet Union no longer had the capital to convince the opponent. Even the powerful and invincible German army suffered greatly in front of the Anjia Army.
Could the uneven Soviet army do better than the Germans?
The answer is naturally no!
In order for the Soviet Union to continue to exist and to plant the red flag all over the world, it is extremely important to maintain a peaceful situation with such a powerful neighbor as South China.
Therefore, Stalin, who had a peaceful mind, was very satisfied with the courtesy he received during his trip.
Speaking of which, this is Stalin's second visit. Although this land was formerly the territory of the Soviet Union, between the devil Hitler and the trustworthy An Yi, there was a gap between the wealthy European part of the Soviet Union and the barren Asian part.
During this period, Stalin wisely chose to trust An Yi and throw away those unimportant territories to gain a chance to rise again.
The mentality of the Soviet people also went through a process of gradual transformation and adaptation. If it were in the original history, let alone ceding the entire area east of the Ural Mountains, even just losing the Far East, Stalin would probably have to step down. However, in this time and space. As early as
At the end of 1937, the Soviet Union lost the Far East due to the rebellion of the Far Eastern Republic, and in 1938 it lost Central Asia and all of Siberia. By 1939, the war continued to unfold in the western foothills of the Ural Mountains and the Volga River Basin, and the Soviet Union had already lost
The people's hearts have long been numb to the control of the above territories.
The current territory of the Ural Mountains and Western Siberia is an unexpected surprise brought back by the Far Eastern Republic after the cancellation of the war. Compared with the lost land of Ukraine, the Baltic Sea and Belarus, even a blind man can clearly see which is more important.
Chu, this is why Stalin's "traitorous behavior" of "losing power and humiliating the country" has not been questioned at all.
Furthermore, Nanhua is now the only channel for the import of Soviet weapons and combat supplies.
Since the German navy far exceeded its historical strength, the Arctic Ocean routes and the Black Sea supply lines that were very important to the Soviet Union in time and space were basically cut off. In addition, the Japanese navy blocked the Pacific and Indian Ocean routes. It was no longer possible to rely on material assistance from the United Kingdom and the United States. Withdrawal of 10,000
To put it bluntly, even if the sea route is open, the United States is currently engaged in a fierce battle with Japan on its homeland. They have no excess supplies to supply the Soviet Union, so cooperation with South China has become the only option.
Another point is that - under pressure from the German army, the Soviet Union needed to find an ally to involve the Germans' energy from the flanks! And Nanhua, who was fighting the German army in West Asia, was naturally the best choice.
Compared with the United Kingdom and the United States, which have made many empty promises, South China, as a close neighbor, is more worthy of communication. After all, after giving up most of the land, the territorial disputes between China and the Soviet Union have long ceased to exist. Now, in turn, the Chinese owe the Soviets
In this way, the two sides are more closely integrated in diplomacy.
Stalin had great expectations for this visit.
A person's courage in speaking and acting methods are generally consistent with his own strength. Today's Soviet Union is being encroached upon by Germany and is in danger. Naturally, Stalin cannot be stubborn. He very much hopes to take this opportunity to obtain assistance from South China.
, to form a true ally with Nanhua, and at the same time hope to coordinate in the future international situation and seek a relatively relaxed development environment for the Red Empire.
An Yi also has high expectations for this meeting between the two parties. Now that the territory that should be obtained has been obtained, further westward development is not in line with Nanhua's fundamental interests. How to consolidate the existing territory is the most important. If
If relations with the Soviet Union are effectively improved, it will be a huge gain for the Nanhua government. At least in the future, the two sides will not have to be at war with each other on the long border, leaving people living in this area to face the fear of war at any time.
Of course, those who are willing to fight will inevitably perish, and those who forget to fight will be in danger. No matter what happens in the future, An Yi will not reduce his emphasis on national defense construction. As long as Nanhua can maintain the current development momentum and continue to make great strides in the fields of science and technology and military affairs, any
There are no threats to fear.
The group returned to the President's Palace, which was converted from the former Tsar's palace. Stalin saw that there were no pedestrians on the street and the desolate scene all around him. He nodded secretly and thought that this deal was done right!
At noon, An Yi held a banquet in the banquet hall of the Chairman's Palace in honor of Stalin and his entourage. The main generals of An's army in the Central Asian Theater and the main leaders of the Eastern Han Provincial Military Control Commission attended the banquet.
At two o'clock in the afternoon that day, the guests and hosts held a meeting in the conference hall.
After the meeting began, Stalin was very polite and asked about An Yi's life and health. An Yi then talked about the role of Bolshevism in national construction and resistance to foreign invasion // Shumilou's fastest text update
--No advertising//The advantage aroused Stalin's great interest, and the two had a heated discussion.
Stalin was surprised to hear An Yi's views on Bolshevism's positive role in coordinating, planning, and coordinating material supply, and that intellectuals and scientific researchers should be considered part of the working class. An Yi's thoughts came to him
It seems too radical, and the flavor of capitalist reform is very strong, but when you think about it carefully, it makes some sense, especially when An Yi said "The essence of Bolshevism is to eliminate poverty and promote the development of productive forces" which made Stalin listen.
My heart was shocked, and I kept repeating it in my heart several times.
The conversation between the two was in a very good atmosphere. Stalin asked about the current situation of the war in West Asia.
An Yi told Stalin that it was only a matter of time before the German army in West Asia was annihilated. The final number of German losses was estimated at about four million. Stalin had previously received secret reports from the intelligence department, and yesterday he personally read the "South China Daily" and "South China Daily" on the train.
An Yi's New Year's message was published in the Liberation Daily. He pondered for a moment and then asked whether those battles in which hundreds of thousands of enemies were wiped out were real? Why were such large-scale continuous operations launched at such a close time?
All victorious? This all sounds incredible!
An Yi introduced what "mobile warfare" is, and then said that the railway and road networks in the Mesopotamia area are dense. The mobilization of troops is very convenient. In order to prevent the German army from having a chance to breathe, the troops participating in the war had almost no rest and recuperation, and they were all finished.
Immediately jumping into the next battle after one battle can always form an absolute advantage in local strength. The German army has no air force and backward intelligence. It is not surprising that such a disastrous defeat occurred!
An Yi knew very well that the An Jiajun's high-precision weapons such as cloud explosive bombs and advanced troop delivery methods such as airships, transport planes and helicopters were unbelievable to people of this era. Premature exposure would only
It's so scary that it's better to blame everything on other aspects.
Sure enough, even if An Yi deliberately weakened the role of the Anjiajun, it still shocked Stalin. After all, on the Soviet-German battlefield, the Soviet army had suffered enough from the German army.
Annihilation, even Stalingrad, which had strong city defenses, changed hands under the crazy attack of the German army, which gave Stalin a heartfelt fear of the German army.
Now when he heard that the German army had suffered a bloody blow in front of the Anjia Army, it was impossible for Stalin not to be frightened or awed. Therefore, he subconsciously believed that since the German army was no match for the Anjia Army, then the Soviet army was also invincible.
Stalin pondered in his mind, if Germany really lost four million troops in West Asia, then the total strength of the German army on the Soviet-German battlefield would not exceed four million. The current Soviet army of 15 million
Troops. If the weapons, equipment and ammunition provided by South China are obtained, it is not an impossible task to drive the German army out of the Soviet Union.
Thinking of this, Stalin frankly stated the purpose of his visit after congratulating the South China Army on their great victory. The diplomatic department had already informed An Yi of the Soviet Union's demands, so An Yi thought about it briefly and also included it.
After stating his request, Stalin immediately stated that the demarcation of the border could be completed in accordance with South China's requirements, and the Soviet Union could even help with tasks such as erecting boundary markers and conducting border isolation.
An Yi was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately expressed that he would do his best to help the Soviet army arm itself and drive Nazi Germany out of Soviet territory.
The meeting lasted for more than three hours. After dinner together in the evening, An Yi and Stalin watched the performance of the Anjiajun General Political Art Troupe.
At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, Chinese and foreign reporters gathered in the large conference hall converted from a church in the Presidential Palace. Under the "silver sea" constructed by more than 200 spotlights, An Yi and Stalin hugged each other cordially, and then walked to the special signing stage.
.
In order to prevent Stalin from betraying him in the future, An Yi exaggerated the significance of this signing with great fanfare and invited media from various countries to witness it in advance. At the same time, An Yi also specifically asked the film studio to arrange a special camera team to record the newly established country.
The TV station also sent elite troops to record this historic scene live.
At the signing ceremony, a dedicated person read out the specific contents in Chinese, Russian and English, and praised it as a testimony of the friendship between the two countries that currently contribute the most to the fight against Nazi Germany.
Stalin did not expect that the signing ceremony would be so intense. Although he felt a little annoyed, thinking about what he was about to get after signing the contract, he suppressed the urge to break the contract. Together with An Yi, he read the terms agreed upon by professionals from both sides overnight, and after the staff's prompts
Next, he signed his name on the document.
An Yi was relieved that his wish had come true. Even if the Soviet Union wanted to go back on his words in the future, there would be no legal or historical basis for it. So he got up excitedly and stood up again, shaking hands and hugging Stalin warmly.
After the signing ceremony, the leaders of the two countries met with journalists from various countries. At the press conference, the two leaders dropped a bombshell:
An Yi said that after the victory of the West Asian War, the Anjia Army will not take the initiative to enter European lands. European affairs should be left to European countries to resolve themselves. The main direction of the Anjia Army's future military use will be in the Indian Ocean to clear the obstacles that block the exchanges between allied countries.
Completely open up the sea lanes connecting Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas.
Stalin said that in the future, the two countries will strengthen cooperation in military, political and economic fields. The Soviet Union will strive to use two to three years to gradually advance the front to Poland and the Balkans, and hit Nazi Germany hard from the east. At the same time,
Stalin called on the Allies to open a second battlefield in North Africa and Europe as soon as possible to accelerate the demise of Nazi Germany.
When the news came out, the whole world was in an uproar... Since I was going to attend the wedding of my friend Orleans Grilled Sturgeon Castle, I hurriedly posted this chapter in advance!
Tomorrow is Monday, so I will ask for the recommendation votes for "Iron Bone" in advance, which will be updated every day. Thank you for your help! To be continued...rq
