Stalin's mood these days is not very good, or very bad. The Red Army of the Soviet Union defeated its generals at the expense of its troops on the front line. He had already executed several front-line commanders. Only when marshal voroshlov arrived at the front line and sent his two most effective confidants, Khrushchev and yezov, could the situation be stabilized.
However, they only stabilized the situation. These two men did not bring new hope to the chaotic front line. Stalin still received one report after another about the collapse of the front line troops. Compared with the German army on Poland's western front, the Soviet Red Army, which made no progress, lost face to him.
Immediately after that, he received the news of a big victory at the front line, which calmed his anger a little. But the news later came that one battle after another was defeated. He received a report from the material transportation department, claiming that the guns and ammunition lost in the front line were enough to arm half of Poland, but the result was just a pathetic little hill in the wilderness of Poland.
Stalin was very dissatisfied with this result. His plan to prove his ability to the world failed. Instead, he was humiliated by a group of losers. He felt that it was time to end the farce and find a fig leaf for himself.
So when I got the report from yerov and Khrushchev and others, I saw the proposal of sending envoys to Germany to renegotiate. Finally, I couldn't help throwing my precious pipe and locking myself in my room for a whole day. The next morning, a Soviet diplomat left in a hurry with Stalin's letter of appointment. He was going to Romania, and from there to Berlin, Germany.
After receiving the instructions from yerov, the emissary first went to the front line of the Soviet Union and Poland, discussed with Khrushchev, yerov and voroshlov for a long time, and then rushed all the way to Berlin to meet German Foreign Minister Merkel.
Without saying a word, the Soviet emissary confessed his intention to Merkel, and took out a list of materials given by Stalin: "Dear Mr. Merkel, I think our great leader comrade Stalin has offered very rich conditions, including a series of materials such as oil and food..."
Merkel impolitely waved her hand, interrupted the Soviet diplomat, raised her chin and said: "according to the previous treaty between you and China, we declared war on Poland one month later. After paying a heavy price, our army has now gained the advantage over the Polish Army... At this time, we will redraw the future border with the Soviet Union, I don't think it's good for our country at all. "
"We've got everything we can! We need to know that the payment of these materials has seriously hindered our five-year plan. " The Soviet envoy said anxiously: "you should return it to the head of state and let him decide such an important matter!"
Merkel laughed, looked at the Soviet envoy and said, "the head of state has entrusted me with full responsibility for such a small matter. To be honest, I'm not optimistic about these material transactions, because it seems that we can get more benefits in Poland. "
"Put forward Germany's request and see if we can accept it." The Soviet envoy was also very single and not angry. He was ready to be slaughtered. In this way, Merkel was amused.
"Of course we need all these materials." With her hand on her chin, Merkel seemed to be thinking about the conditions that should be put forward. After a while, he continued, "but this time we want more people."
"People?" The Soviet envoy was stunned, then looked at Merkel and said, "who do you want us to exchange?"
"No one." Merkel waved her hand and said, "we want human resources! We want all the Polish prisoners of war that the Soviet Union has acquired, a total of 850000. "
"We can't have so many Polish prisoners of war! Mr Merkel! We can't do that. " The Soviet envoy shook his head and sighed: "if we could capture 850000 Polish prisoners, I would not come here to see you in a hurry."
Merkel laughed again, just like a naughty child who succeeded in a prank: "in fact, if we Germany complete the siege of Warsaw, Poland will collapse in an instant. You have a few months to catch the" Prisoners ", don't you?"
"But we can't guarantee that there will be enough captives." After thinking about it, the Soviet envoy said, "if you want the population of Poland, I think I can go back and find a way, but if it's not enough, what should I do?"
"Supplement it with the healthy men in your camp!" Merkel thought of what akado had told him and said immediately.
……
"Population! I want population! You don't have to pay the people who work for Germany right now! " "I'm going to turn these areas into one of the best industrial areas in the world in a year," akado said, pointing to Poland, Slovakia and East Prussia
He pointed to the information on the table and motioned the leading members of the grand German Party to take it up and have a look. Bosch, Krupp, Augustus, Jelinek, Schacht and others all opened the document and began to read the "future German light industry development plan".
In the plan, the bloody development of light industry and handicraft industry in Germany is very detailed: in Frankfurt, Schwert, eisenshtenstadt and other regions, Germany will build 21 textile industry concentration camps and 17 manual clothing concentration camps to produce cheap products with almost no labor cost for the whole Germany. In the occupied areas of Poland, akador vigorously promoted farm farming and planned to build Poland into a granary for the whole of Germany. He pinned all the supplies for German citizens in 1938 on this plan. This is also the reason why he repeatedly promised the German people to abolish part of the material rationing system in 1938. Twenty thousand prisoners will be added to 57 mines across the country, and ore production will be increased by more than 30% within six months in cooperation with the original workers. In addition, 3000 skilled workers will be selected from the prisoners of war to supplement the factories for the production of industrial products. Augustus's plan to the head of state is to supply Germany with at least 1.6 million fresh cheap labor, liberate more original technicians, and carry out supervision, control and inspection - this not only reduces the work intensity of the original German workers, but also improves the output and quality of industrial products. Now this plan is in operation. Most of the 700000 Polish soldiers captured by Germany on the front line are sent to various parts of Germany to serve their sentence and reform through labor. The Polish officers who originally commanded them are randomly assigned to the foremen of these labor forces. Business tycoons laugh at the victory of the war. They quietly divide up the labor force, and then sharpen their swords to grab the increased output of raw materials. The national defense forces generously took out 10% of the mine output and 80% of the prisoners to repay the money owed to the major arms manufacturers. Hundreds of millions of rice coupons were redeemed by the government with materials, and then distributed to these factories for a new round of arms production... These new arms manufacturers have no cash in their hands, but they are in a muddle. Every German can find a job, and even in some places, the vacant positions can never be filled. Instead of depressing Germany, the war was full of prosperity. It's just that people are not used to the rationing system of some materials. For example, you may not be able to buy a brand-new Mercedes Benz when you have money. The German economy that akkado took over is in fact a mess: Germany has been burdened with huge war reparations debt since 1919, and suffered heavy losses in the subsequent international capitalist economic crisis. He relied on his previous experience to speculate in the US stock market, and only then managed to pull the German economy from the brink of collapse back to the level of barely living. Schacht deserves to be a financial genius. Relying on the original capital provided by akkado, he slowly rescued the German economy, and gradually embarked on the road of development in such a nearly destroyed financial environment. However, all this is just the beginning. The sanctions imposed by Britain and France and the war against Poland have made the whole country even more short of materials, which has caused a little dissatisfaction among the people. These things need to be dealt with by akado, but with the addition of Augustus, the efficiency seems to be better. However, this mess is still a mess for everyone. Although it is much better than before, it is still not the most ideal state in the mind of akado. The door of the conference room was knocked, and then Merkel came in from the outside. He put the new treaty in front of akado with a proud face: "my head. After some hard negotiations, the Soviets agreed to give us 600000 healthy Polish prisoners and 200000 women. In addition, we have acquired more land to expand eastward by 50 kilometers than before. The Soviet Union offered us an additional 3 million barrels of oil as compensation. "“ Just right Augustus took over the documents circulated to him, looked at them, then nodded and said, "our scarce human resources can be in place by the end of this year, so that we can put some money into infrastructure construction, and more money will flow into the market and revitalize our economy."“ Better than expected! " "At least our economy is a little bit better than France," Schacht said with a smile Akado looked at all the people in the meeting and raised his confident mouth: "gentlemen! Now that at least part of the problem has been solved, please help me manage this country well! I will be able to concentrate more on leading you to expand the territory of the third empire and let our flag cover the whole world. "“ Fuehrer! Long live Everyone stood up, stood to attention, saluted and called out.
