Hmm How much work have you done on the military administration?

Military administrations were set up in the former Axis countries, namely Germany, Japan, and Italy.

The current chief of staff, Basil Levsky, was expected to be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Western Military Administration, and Colonel Tolbukhin, who was known for his prudence and meticulousness, was appointed as the commander of the North Japan Military Administration.

The Manchuria region was changed to the Soviet Army in Manchuria under the command of Zhukov, who had been in charge of the Far East Military District.

Yes! Well, we havent had enough time to reach a perfect level, but the occupied areas are being managed without any trouble. If you could give us a little more time and budget

They nodded their heads and looked through the documents nervously. But well, it would be a lie if they could take over the operation of a country in just a few months.

The exiled communists who were taken as collaborators, or the local communist forces or fascists who were brutally suppressed, had no power to govern. They couldnt suppress their dissatisfaction with the hunger caused by the threats of guns and swords, or their worries about the future.

It was easier for the backward regions where they could win the hearts of the peasants with radical reforms such as free confiscation and distribution of land.

But the three Axis countries were all industrialized enough, and especially Germany had a history of providing various welfare measures to win the workers hearts, so it was not easy to control them.

I see. Make sure, absolutely sure, that there is no trouble.

Yes! Comrade Secretary!

The 1953 East Berlin incident was the precursor to the anti-Soviet protests in the Eastern European satellite states, leading to the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and the 1968 Prague Spring.

They had to prevent such things from happening from the beginning, considering that the suppression of the East Berlin unrest caused resentment in other countries and turned the minds of the intellectuals in East Germany.

Fortunately, I didnt push for industrialization as obsessively as in real history.

As he caught my eye, the bald Khrushchev blushed and was leading the expansion of light industry, that is, the production of necessities.

We need to make sure there are no problems with the supply of necessities Weve been at war for the last few years, so we might be able to put up with rationing or low living standards, but we cant keep that up forever.

If not, well import from the US. They added that and the Politburo members bowed their heads.

They felt good when they thought of the US imports.

Hehehehe

The US had agreed to pay a huge price to the Soviet Union to get nuclear weapons.

They had a lot left over from the Lend-Lease payments, and they also provided tens or hundreds of billions of economic aid under the name of joint support for post-war recovery!

And we had a huge amount of gold that we got.

Shall we go see it again later?

Yes? Yes! Hehehe

They laughed similarly when they realized what my laughter meant.

Even if it wasnt theirs, they would feel good when they saw the huge amount of gold piled up.

The Nazis had plundered the gold that was stored in the central banks of the Western European countries they occupied, as they did in real history. New novel chapters are published on

The gold they plundered from places like the Netherlands and Belgium had created countless urban legends under the name of Nazis secret gold.

But here, Nazi Germany had prospered more and had more gold.

They had trampled on Britain, the second in the world who would be sorry for their passion, and Germany had gotten over hundreds of tons of gold bars.

The graph that Molotov showed me showed that the Conservative Partys support rate was far ahead of the Labour Partys.

Anthony Eden, the former foreign secretary, seems likely to succeed Churchill as prime minister. Anthony Eden is an imperialist similar to Churchill

Molotov was briefing based on the information that Kruglov had scraped from the NKVD, but I knew better than them.

Churchill, who had lost power in 1945, had another chance.

The Labour government, faced with the outbreak of the Korean War, colonial rebellions, and cuts in welfare spending due to rising military spending, eventually lost the 1951 general election.

Churchill retired in 1955 and handed over the prime ministers office to Eden.

But Eden intervened militarily in the independence of the colonies, and joined forces with France and Israel to overthrow the Nasser regime that nationalized the Suez Canal, but it turned out to be a painful mistake.

I didnt need much explanation since I knew his achievements as prime minister

The world situation seemed to be moving in an unpredictable direction.

Anyway, it seems that the US is not completely out of reach in Europe.

Yes Also, the British Labour Party seems to be negative about the independence of the colonies.

Hmm

That made sense. Britain had been trampled and exiled before it could fully exploit the resources of the colonies on the German front.

This loss of prestige led to widespread rebellions in Britains colonies around the world. In India, the largest colony in the world, Indian nationalists led by Nehru and Gandhi staged protests almost every day.

It was still quiet, but Arab nationalists-socialists, black liberationists in East and South Africa, would flare up as soon as they had a chance.

It was the opposite in real history

Britain had relatively peacefully granted independence to its colonies, while France had lost its colonies after fighting the Algerian War, the Indochina War, and so on.

In the process, the US, which had supported France, the junior partner of Western Europe, had unwittingly stepped into the Indochina War.

France, on the other hand, had freed Algeria and withdrawn from Indochina after losing at Dien Bien Phu, under de Gaulles Fifth Republic, but the US, based on the domino theory, had invaded Vietnam, fearing the spread of socialism after China turned red.

This time, China became North and South, and India seemed to be turning red as well.

The British army is rebuilding after retaking the mainland, but the British colonial army is still intact. However, whether they can use the colonial army to suppress the same Indian independence flag

As the debate went on, a messenger burst into the conference room door.

Comrade Secretary! Urgent news!

What? Whats going on!

From the US From the US

From the US? Did FDR die? I heard he wasnt in good health

Dewey was finally selected as the Republican presidential candidate. The candidates decided to push Dewey as they were worried that MacArthur and McCarthy were too radical

Hmm? Was that something to worry about?

Dewey? He only left his name as a loser in history. He lost to Roosevelt the first time, and to Truman the second time.

MacArthur and McCarthy, who rose to power in a flash, were worrisome if they became the US president, but it wasnt a big deal if they didnt.

Is that all? It seems like Roosevelt will win anyway.

No, no. That The conservative faction of the Democratic Party in the South defected en masse to the Republican Party. Dewey nominated Truman, who led the southern conservatives, as his vice presidential candidate
