Chapter 1125: Russian envoy (seeking monthly ticket)

"Comrade Joseph, we plan to transfer the 44th, 45th, 46th, 47th, and 51st Army Groups to form the Caucasus Front Army. The Caucasus Front Army will perform the task of marching into the Persian Gulf!" Shaposhnikov submitted the formation of the Caucasus Front Army the next day plan.

Joseph nodded: "Five armies should be enough to defeat the Turks, and then capture the Persian Gulf!"

Although the five armies of the Russian army are all newly formed armies, their combat effectiveness is limited. However, Joseph still believes that the combat effectiveness of these Russian troops is far above that of the Turkish army. In addition, the strength of the Turkish army is not large. According to the information obtained by Bu Russia, the Turkish army has a total of only a few hundred thousand people. After deducting the defenses in other areas, how many troops can be left to defend against the Russian attack? The Russian army assembled five group armies, which was enough to solve all problems.

"Comrade Joseph, the candidates for the commander, government affairs and chief of staff of the Caucasus Front Army have not yet been finalized." General Shaposhnikov said.

Joseph has obviously been prepared for this: "The commander is Comrade Kozlov, the political commissar is Comrade Shamanin, and the chief of staff is Comrade Torbukhin."

"Yes, Comrade Joseph." General Shaposhnikov nodded without any objection to this.

"Okay, Comrade Shaposhnikov, if you have nothing else, let's stop here today! Next, I have a meeting of the Politburo." Joseph said.

Shaposhnikov hesitated to speak, but then saluted and left.

Joseph knew what Shaposhnikov wanted to say. He appointed Voroshilov yesterday as the future commander of the Western Front. Then, it seems that Voroshilov's positions as a member of the Politburo and People's Commissar of National Defense should be relieved. down. And Shaposhnikov, obviously, is interested in this. However, Joseph also had his own considerations.

Voroshilov is loyal to him, and now he is even more willing to serve as the commander of the Western Front to clean up this mess. Such a person, of course, Joseph will reuse. Therefore, Joseph is not going to let Voroshilov resign as a member of the Politburo. But the position of People's Commissar of National Defense can be handed over to Shaposhnikov. In this case, it is also an explanation for him.

Subsequently, Joseph went to the meeting room to participate in the meeting of the Politburo of Russia. When he entered the meeting room, other Politburo members had already arrived.

Everyone is talking about it, and there is worry on their faces. The news from the front, of course, cannot be hidden from these Politburo members. Now that the Russian army has suffered heavy losses on the frontline battlefield, they have become less optimistic about the prospects of the war.

However, when they saw Joseph coming in, everyone shut up and stood up to salute Joseph.

"Comrades, please sit down!" Joseph looked calm, as if he wasn't worried at all by the situation on the front line.

The members of the Politburo have all achieved their positions.

"Comrades, I know that everyone is very concerned about the battle situation on the front line. I can tell you very clearly that the current battle situation is indeed not in our favor, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties. The surprise attack launched by the Germans this time, let us Some are beyond our reach," Joseph said.

The faces of the Politburo members suddenly became even more ugly.

"Comrade Joseph, can we defeat the Germans? Or, can we really resist the German attack this time?" Andreyev asked.

"Don't worry, Comrade Andreev, we have found a way to deal with the Germans. In another month, winter will come. At that time, the severe cold will force the Germans to stop their offensive. And we, You can use this rare time to start mobilizing troops, training troops, and even launching counterattacks. Although the Germans are very strong, the harsh weather conditions will reduce their combat effectiveness to the minimum. At that time, we can defeat them in one fell swoop !” Joseph said confidently.

"If this is the case, it would be great. When Napoleon led the army to attack Russia, he was defeated by the Russian winter. Now, the Germans will definitely repeat the same mistakes! Victory must belong to us!" Khrushchev Said immediately.

Other members of the Politburo also expressed their views. The current Joseph has the supreme status in the Bu-Russia Party. It is impossible for others to challenge Joseph. The biggest opponents have all been cleaned up by him. The rest are just a bunch of responders. Unless the Russian army really suffered an unprecedented fiasco in the war, or Russia was facing the crisis of extinction, otherwise, Joseph's position would not be shaken.

"Gentlemen, although we are encountering great difficulties now, I believe that we will definitely win in the future. Therefore, everyone must have confidence." Joseph said.

Others echoed this repeatedly, as if the Russian army could really defeat the German army on the battlefield.

"Another topic today is that the Americans promised to provide us with military assistance. However, it seems that we seriously underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Germans at that time. Now we have lost more than one hundred troops on the battlefield. Ten thousand. Next, there will be more losses. Therefore, we need the Americans to provide us with more support!" Joseph said.

"Comrade Joseph, will the Americans agree to our request?" Molotov asked.

"If we are defeated by the Germans, or even Bu Russia is destroyed by the Americans, it will not be of any benefit to the Americans. I believe that the Americans will definitely make the right choice." Joseph said.

"Comrade Molotov, I hope you, as our special envoy, will go to the United States and have a good talk with the Americans about this issue. More of our military aid, not just tanks, trucks, artillery and guns used by the Army, but also need Advanced fighter jets. The fighter jets currently equipped by our air force are no match for the Germans at all," Joseph said.

"Yes, Comrade Joseph, I understand!" Molotov nodded.

In order to reach the United States as soon as possible, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs even contacted the United States, requesting them to send B-17 bombers to Moscow to pick up Molotov to the United States. After all, Bu Russia's own bombers or transport planes simply cannot fly long distances.

The U.S. government readily agreed to Bu Russia's request. The United States now still needs Bu Russia to be in the front to consume Germany's power.
