Moscow, the Kremlin, Zhukov's car slowly stopped in front of the building's gate, two rows of Soviet soldiers stood up to salute, Zhukov slowly got out of his car, and stepped up the steps of the Red Square.
Through the long corridor, Zhukov followed his guard step by step to the door of the appointed conference room. At this point, the two guards reached out to stop Zhukov's guard from moving forward, only to signal that Zhukov and his secretary could push the door in. The two Zhukov guards glanced at Zhukov and then stepped aside.
Zhukov sorted out his military uniform, looked down at the dust on his boots, and at his secretary, then reached out and gently knocked on the door of the conference room.
"Please come in!" The voice of Stalin {{m came from inside. Zhukov pushed the door open and found that more than a dozen generals were sitting at the conference table, as well as senior commanders of the Air Force and the Navy. The smallest person present here is also the rank of general, and even Marshal Temu Xin who has been suspended.
"Long live Comrade Stalin, the great leader!" Zhukov stood at the door to salute and shouted a slogan loudly. His greeting echoed in the empty conference room, and the whole room seemed very quiet.
"Marshal Zhukov, this time I invite you to return to Moscow from the front line, mainly to hear your views on the front line situation, and to more intuitively understand our current front line situation." Stalin sat in the first place, just pointed gently Pointing to the position beside him, motioning Zhukov to sit down, and then said softly: "Here are generals who are absolutely loyal to the motherland. Everyone can speak freely. I just want to hear your views on the war."
"Yes! Comrade Stalin, the great leader!" Zhukov walked to Stalin's side and sat in the empty chair, then took the document bag from the secretary, took out a lot of documents from it, and spread it out On the table in front of him, he sorted it out bit by bit, and everyone waited patiently. No one spoke, only the rustling of the paper rubbing.
A few minutes later, Zhukov finally sorted out his thoughts and looked up at Stalin, saying: "As for the frontline battle, as a frontline commander you personally appointed by Comrade Stalin, I have a few opinions."
"The first is the north. Although the Germans are gathering Finnish forces to put pressure on Leningrad, I personally think that the northern war situation is in fact irrelevant. Leningrad is not in our hands, or it is not in the hands of the Germans. Great. "Zhukov put out a document and handed it to Stalin, said softly:" As the northern theater, I personally think that it is the least important. "
Stalin took the Leningrad defensive report and glanced at it to the conference table: "The Germans obviously didn't have much interest in Leningrad either. The attacking group army heard that it was beaten on the battlefield. The e-group army has no deterrent effect. "
After he said this, he looked at Marshal Tiemu Xinge. Obviously, the marshal who carried the black pot in the southern theater now has new uses, so he will appear at such an important strategic meeting: "Marshal Tiemu Xinge , I'm ordering you to stabilize the situation in the northern war zone and defend Leningrad, an important city. Do you have any questions? "
"No problem! Comrade Stalin! I am willing to coexist and die with Leningrad!" Tiemu Xinge stood up and said straightly.
The determination he showed seemed to satisfy Stalin, so Stalin reached out and pressed down, beckoning him to sit down: "Very good! I believe you can follow your promise." He looked at Zhukov again, waiting for his number one to continue to talk about the front line.
"On the central front, I deliberately gave up a large area of ​​land between Minsk and Smolensk to gain time and space for our troops. The Germans are now suffering from supply difficulties, and the plan to attack Moscow will not be material in the short term. Progress, "Zhukov said while handing over some of the results of the aerial reconnaissance report to Stalin.
Obviously, Stalin was still very concerned about the battle in Moscow. He picked up the information and watched it carefully. The assistant behind him was also very attentive. With a gentle wave of his hand, the waiter pushed a huge map over. , This map is pinned to a huge board like a wall, there are many wheels below, to ensure that this huge map can move as you like.
Zhukov stood up and walked to the map. He was the commander of the army. When facing the map, he was obviously more professional than a bunch of reports and data forms. He stretched out his arms and caught the pointer In the hand, point forward, the tip of the pointer is right in the position of Smolensk: "The railroad specifications from Minsk to Smolensk are different from those used by the Germans. Even if the renovation project is accelerated, it will be this year It will be barely completed in May, and during this time, almost all of the German logistics will depend on trucks and mules. "
"So I'm sure that the Germans will not choose to overcome such difficulties and forcibly attack Moscow." Zhukov stroked the map with a pointer, connecting the area between Smolensk and Moscow: "Break through my 2 main fronts There are also 4 infantry fronts, eating hundreds of thousands of troops and then capturing Moscow. For the Germans, there is nothing more than allowing us to move. "
"Comrade Zhukov! Please pay attention to your words! Moscow is the capital of our great motherland. If it falls, it will be an irreparable loss for the entire country." A general looked at Zhukov angrily and yelled: " This is our capital! It cannot fall! "
Stalin frowned, but did not stop the other side from questioning. Obviously he also had this idea. At least for Stalin, Moscow was the basis for his rule of the Soviet Union. In any case, he did not want to appear in the capital when he ruled the Soviet Union. The enemy occupation.
Zhukov made a cross between Moscow and Smolensk with a teaching pointer, and introduced: "Here we have a solid line of defense. Our army's main force is nearly 1 million people deployed here, responsible for the defense of Moscow. So far I I did n’t plan to deploy one of these troops to ensure that there would be no accidents in Moscow. "
After Stalin heard this, he nodded slightly, and he agreed with Zhukov's arrangement on the Moscow front. To be honest, Moscow is a base camp for him, but these are not the reasons why Moscow cannot be abandoned. To be honest, the political significance here is greater than the actual benefits, and it is not something that cannot be abandoned at all.
But when the enemy approached Moscow, the whole country was shocked, and when the country was shaken, he knew that Moscow really could not sway people. After all, for a person who has played politics all his life, such an evaluation by the political center is enough to make him value it.
"It seems that you focused on the southern theater." Stalin didn't say what he was thinking. He asked directly: "Then talk about the southern theater that you value most, and see if it's worth it. Take Moscow for adventure. "
Zhukov nodded and walked to the Stalingrad area far and far below Moscow. He continued: "In fact, I have always been worried that the Germans will concentrate their troops. Let's start the prelude to the battle of the Caucasus. We are more comprehensive. They have already deployed the Battle of the Caucasus. As early as around 1927, they were preparing for the Battle of the Caucasus. "
"1927? At that time, we had a friendly relationship with the Germans." A general frowned and said, "At that time, they were considering attacking the Caucasus?"
"Although it is not exactly, but it is absolutely certain that they are preparing." Zhukov walked back to his place, took out a piece of information, and spread it on the table. "I investigated some of our records and The report got accurate figures in this regard: the Germans used the aid of construction as an excuse to map the terrain of the entire southern theater. The roads and railways were constructed according to German standards. They even redesigned the railway bridge and some airports. In view of our construction needs at the time, these places are now high-end airports for large bombers, and it can be said that we contributed to building a large number of military facilities for them. "
"With these infrastructures and a large amount of factory equipment, the Germans were able to choose the oil transportation line from Kiev to Donetsk to Stalingrad at the fastest speed, cutting into our most important strategic location, the Caucasus. Area.
Zhukov once again walked to the map and pointed to the southern war zone on the map with a pointer.
The transportation is convenient. There are railways and good bridges. There are even tank factory maintenance workshops every other distance. They helped build our industrial project. "
"My God, they counted every step. Even when they had no tanks themselves, they gave their armored troops on our land and reserved a repair factory along the way?" A general was incredible Looked at Zhu Kefu, questioning with a tone that he could not believe.
"If anything happens more frequently, it is no coincidence. Every German assault is rhythmic and purposeful. When they move forward, they must always ensure that they occupy these vital places and save as much as possible. The cost of the attack. "Zhukov sneered and looked at Stalin, who was also a little shocked." The more sophisticated the calculations are to reduce their losses, the clearer the seemingly chaotic key point. When it appears several times in a row After that, we will find that it is not accidental, but the prearrangement they really made. "
