Chapter 1441： Joseph's helplessness

Although it has entered spring, Moscow is still shrouded in depression, just like it is still in winter. Although the war is still some distance away from Moscow. But everyone seemed to know that the Germans were advancing on Moscow. Even though it was frantically blocked by the Russian army, the German army was still advancing unswervingly. The Russian army had no way to stop the advance of the German army.

"Can our troops hold off the Germans before they reach Moscow?"

"Can our army hold Moscow?"

Such questions are filled in the minds of every Russian living in Moscow. Some well-connected Russians even began to find ways to escape Moscow.

Before the war broke out, this was the capital of Russia, and it had the best treatment in Russia. Almost all Russians want to live here. But now, everyone doesn't want war to come to their heads. Therefore, many Russians want to flee here. Even if there is no such good treatment, at least he can save his own life. Once Moscow is caught in the flames of war, their lives are beyond their control. Maybe a shell fell and they could be reimbursed.

After the German offensive started again, many people in the Russian government departments and the army made reports and wanted to be transferred to the east. Or even go directly to the Siberia region east of the Ural Mountains. Although those places belong to places of bitter cold, many Russians believe that no matter how powerful the Germans are, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to conquer the Ural Mountains. So, as long as they can escape to the east of the Ural Mountains, they are safe.

A large number of ordinary people living in Moscow have also begun to leave Moscow spontaneously. All of this is undoubtedly an extreme disbelief in the combat effectiveness of the Russian army.

The Kremlin, Joseph's office. Marshal Shaposhnikov, Chief of the Russian Army's General Staff, routinely reported the situation on the front line to Joseph. But perhaps it was bad news for the past few days, which made Joseph's face very ugly.

"Why is this happening? Haven't we prepared for the winter? But our troops are still unable to withstand the German attack. Now, the troops on the front line are being defeated and being wiped out by the Germans. If this continues, we will soon All the troops will be lost. Without troops, what will we use to fight the Germans? What will we use to defend our country?" Joseph looked angry.

Shaposhnikov didn't take Joseph's words seriously in his heart. Although it had been a winter of preparations, it was simply delusional for the Russian army to shorten the gap with the German army. What's more, in the cold winter, Joseph also forced the Russian army to launch a winter counterattack, causing the Russian army to lose millions of elite troops in vain.

Of course, Shaposhnikov dared not say that in front of Joseph. Otherwise, the angry Joseph will definitely kill him.

"Comrade Joseph, judging from the response from the front line, there is still a big gap between the combat effectiveness of our army and the German army. Especially after the Air Force lost its air supremacy, the bombers of the Luftwaffe were able to attack us unscrupulously." The troops launched air strikes, which further caused our troops to pay a heavy price. In addition, in terms of weapons and equipment, soldiers' quality and training, there is also a big gap between us and the Germans. This makes our troops On the front line, we were defeated by the Germans. Even in terms of strength, we did not have any advantage. The Germans were supported by a large number of servants, which made their strength surpass ours on all fronts. said Marshal Shaposhnikov.

After hearing such words, Joseph's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Hearing what Shaposhnikov said, isn't it true that the Russian army has no advantage at all? In this case, wouldn't they be doomed to lose in this war?

"Comrade Shaposhnikov, are we really unable to defeat the Germans? You should be clear that if we cannot defeat the Germans, our country will inevitably be destroyed. And those of us People, they will not end well in the end!" Joseph said.

Marshal Shaposhnikov nodded: "Comrade Joseph, of course I am aware of this. However, the strength gap between the two sides is too great, and it is difficult for us to regain the disadvantage. The only way, perhaps, is to wait until the United States enters the war. The Germans had to turn most of their military power against the Americans. Then we might be able to hold off the Germans. If the Americans could gain the upper hand, we would have a chance to turn defeat into victory."

Joseph's face couldn't help but become even uglier. It undoubtedly made him feel very ashamed to put the fate of the country, and even the fate of the word, in the hands of the Americans. You know, Joseph is determined to liberate the world and rule the world.

"Comrade Joseph, the Germans are too powerful to be defeated by our strength alone. Therefore, we need the help of other countries. In other words, we are fighting against the Germans alone, and other countries that resist Germany undoubtedly account for the Ours is cheap. If it weren’t for us to consume the strength of Germany, it would be impossible for other countries to defeat Germany. Therefore, in the matter of defeating Germany, we and other countries are in a cooperative relationship. Wait until After Germany is defeated and there is no crisis, we no longer need to look at the faces of the Americans." Marshal Shaposhnikov knew Joseph's thoughts very well, so he comforted him.

Joseph nodded, the current situation made him feel very helpless. He also understood the situation from the front line very well. He knew that it would be impossible to defeat Germany based solely on Russia's strength. If you want to keep your own country, you must cooperate with the Americans.

"I will ask the representative in the United States to ask the Americans to join the war as soon as possible. In addition, I will ask the Americans to provide us with more support. It is already spring, and the routes on the Arctic Ocean will not be long. The United States People can take this opportunity to provide us with more support!" Joseph said.

Shaposhnikov nodded. The United States now provides a lot of support to Bu Russia, but it is limited by the capacity of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and they are all piled up in Vladivostok. If the Arctic Ocean route can be opened, then Russia will be able to get more aid materials. The combat effectiveness of the Russian army will also be greatly improved as a result.
