No matter how poorly the Russian army performed in the Great Patriotic War and the bearded man himself was arrogant, no one can deny the role Russia played in World War II.
Although he suffered unprecedented huge losses, Bearded Man still persisted. Countless Russians persisted. During the Great Patriotic War, countless heroic figures emerged who could sing and cry. They are all ordinary Russians.
Roque has no prejudice against Russia.
Russia's national image is not very good nowadays, and part of it is indeed Russia's fault, such as defaulting on debts
It is more of a slander by mainstream countries.
Russia is a country ruled by workers. This is the root cause of mainstream countries' fear of Russia. The powerful rulers of European countries are worried that this trend will spread outside Russia, in which case they will lose all their privileges.
Don't listen to what European countries say. Whether it is a constitutional monarchy or a liberal democracy, the country is still ruled by the elite class, but it is just a different way.
Essentially the same is true for southern Africa.
The difference is that Southern African companies, especially those under Roque's name, will allocate more profits to employees and provide more benefits to corporate employees, which looks better than those in European and American countries.
Affected by Roque, most business owners in southern Africa are willing to distribute more profits to their employees. This is one of the main reasons for the economic boom in southern Africa in the past few decades.
Only when people have money can they have the ability to consume.
Consumption can provide more tax revenue.
The tax rates levied by the federal government in Southern Africa are very low, and the main way to accumulate wealth is actually trade with the Southern African Union countries.
To put it bluntly, it is robbery.
Don't be angry. Countries outside the Southern African Union want to plunder Southern Africa, but Southern Africa still refuses.
Take Japan for example. If Southern Africa is willing to export raw materials to Japan, then no matter how high the price offered by Southern African companies, the Japanese will be grateful.
The same goes for Russia.
The aid provided to Russia by Southern Africa is not free.
Russia currently lacks payment capacity, and its transaction method is more of exchange.
Southern Africa uses advanced weapons and equipment to exchange various industrial raw materials and even food from Russia.
This is all the Russians can come up with.
In the context of the war, Russia was also extremely short of various raw materials, especially grain.
Therefore, Big Beard hopes to obtain more interest-free loans and even more direct aid from southern Africa.
In the first three months of the Great Patriotic War, Russia had borrowed more than 1.2 billion rand from southern Africa.
This is also the reason why Roque wants to give more assistance to Russia.
If Russia loses the war, all this money will be lost.
"Joseph, the Southern African Federal Government will do its best to support all mankind's war against evil." Roque has now risen to the level of all mankind. The Southern African Federal Government has this qualification. This is indeed a war that determines the destiny of all mankind.
.
"Thank you, Rock, you will always be Russia's friend." The bearded man laughed and hugged Rock.
Saying this is the same as not saying it.
At least Rock didn't believe what Big Beard said.
The speed with which this guy fell out of favor and the ruthlessness with which he struck did not require the European and American countries to vilify him.
Roosevelt arrived in Moscow one day later than Rock and Winston.
The situation was urgent, and the meeting was held the day after Roosevelt's arrival. However, on the evening of Roosevelt's arrival, Rock and Winston met first with Roosevelt, who had just arrived in Moscow.
"When does the United States plan to enter the war?" This is the question that Rock and Winston are most concerned about.
"I need to convince Congress that the expansion of Germany and Japan has seriously threatened the interests of the United States." Roosevelt was straightforward enough. Justice and peace were all false, and interests were the only factor that determined when the United States would enter the war.
Roosevelt would certainly not say this in front of the media.
There is no need to shout slogans with Rock and Winston. They both know the basics, and it is better to be honest.
"Actually, you don't need to be so anxious. As long as you can't make money from trade with Germany and Japan, the members of Congress will be more anxious than you." Winston was not polite. He had accumulated too much resentment against the Americans.
"But if we join the war one day earlier, we can gain more say in the post-war period. Does the United States still intend to stay outside the center of world civilization this time?" Rock firmly defended his position.
After the end of the last world war, the United States did not even participate in the League of Nations and received nothing but money.
The overall strength of the United States is now stronger than when the last world war broke out.
However, its influence around the world is declining. During the Brazilian Civil War, almost all countries blamed the United States, but no one blamed southern Africa. This is the consequence of losing the right to speak.:.
The United States, like southern Africa, is an extraterritorial country to Brazil.
They are also deeply involved. Southern Africa is upholding justice, while the United States is aiding evil, which makes Americans very sad.
"Of course not. In the future, the connections between various continents in the world will become closer and closer. Twenty years ago, it would have taken a week to get from the United States to Europe, but now it only takes four hours. The current international status of the United States is not in line with the national strength of the United States.
Match, the United States must regain the glory that originally belonged to the United States." Roosevelt was not angry, but he was actually helpless. Compared with southern Africa, most Americans are too conservative.
Americans are really conservative.
Hippie culture has not yet begun to become popular. Compared with Europe, the United States has always been known for being conservative, otherwise the Monroe Doctrine would not be so popular in the United States.
The United States is facing many problems now.
In the past, the United States focused mainly on the expansion of its national territory, buying what it could and grabbing what it couldn't. It expanded from a small 13 states in North America to the current 9.3 million square kilometers.
Like southern Africa, the expansion of the United States has reached its limit. It can no longer rely on plunder to accumulate strength and can only seek external development.
More serious than the economy is population.
Southern Africa is now the number one target for European immigrants. Fewer and fewer immigrants are choosing the United States. The new population in the United States has been in a slump for ten consecutive years. American capitalists are more worried than Roosevelt.
"Before that, we have to confirm whether Russia can withstand the German attack." Winston is most worried about this issue now.
Before coming to Russia, the data in the battle reports were really worrying. Hundreds of thousands of people were captured at every turn, millions of troops were lost, and no country could survive.
After arriving in Moscow, Winston's level of worry was slightly reduced. The huge losses on the front line did not affect the determination of the Russians. The Russians' attitude towards the war was exciting. They were not intimidated by the Germans. Everyone was
Confidence in Russia is in stark contrast to the British.
In the last world war, the British actively participated in the war and ultimately paid huge sacrifices.
This time the situation is obviously different. The British are no longer enthusiastic about joining the army, and aristocratic children are no longer proud to join the army. Some people even commit suicide to avoid military service. This was unimaginable twenty years ago.
"Russia has potential, but lacks strength." Roosevelt was well prepared and understood Russia's situation well.
In other words, Russia has people, but lacks advanced weapons and equipment.
This was proven during the Great Patriotic War.
The damage caused by the Great Purge to Russia is obvious. The Russian soldiers on the front line do not lack courage, but flesh and blood cannot compete with the steel monsters. As long as the Germans do not make mistakes, the Russians will have no chance.
Fortunately, winter has come.
Moscow in October was already covered in ice and snow. When Rock, Winston and Stalin were sitting in front of the roaring fireplace drinking tea, there was heavy snow falling outside, and the snow on the ground was already a foot thick.
Don't worry, this is just the beginning.
"So we must give Russia as much assistance as possible. Don't worry about economic interests at this time. If we lose this war, then we will have nothing." Roque no longer has expectations for the British, but Americans can still look forward to it.
.
Although the economic strength of the United States is inferior to that of southern Africa, it would still be terrifying if it exploded at full strength.
Southern Africa is now in a state of national mobilization, and all economic and trade are serving the war. Although a lot of materials are produced, they are consumed very quickly. If the United States can join in, then the pressure on Southern Africa will be much less.
Such as aid to Russia.
This is not a question of how much aid there is, the key is that all the aid may be in vain.
Winston is worried about the proliferation of such ideas, and Rock is equally worried.
It’s not that it’s bad, but it’s not in line with the national conditions of southern Africa.
The aid given to Russia now will become capital for the expansion of Russia's voice after the war.
Therefore, the intensity of assistance is the key. It must allow the Russians to persevere and not accumulate too much strength in the process.
Bearded men are not stupid either.
So Bearded Man formed a new army of 5 million in one breath, but Russia did not have the ability to arm these troops.
"I got the authorization from Congress before I got on the plane. The United States will increase trade with Russia next." Roosevelt still has one thing in store.
That’s right, the United States has not been tricked by Russia yet.
Britain has been taken advantage of before.
So after Roosevelt made his statement, Winston smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
"The Russians may not be able to pay." Roque faced the reality. This is a problem faced by southern Africa and the United States.
"It's better to give money on credit than to give it away for free, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Congress." Roosevelt was not afraid of this problem.
The president of the United States changes every four years. By the time Russia wants to pay back the money, Roosevelt will probably no longer be the president of the United States, so this is not a problem that Roosevelt has to worry about. Let the then president of the United States have a headache.
If you look at it this way, the American system is not without merit.
With this tone in mind, the meeting the next day was amicable.
Big Beard made it clear at the meeting that Russia would increase its military recruitment efforts and recruit another 10 million people on the current basis.
This left everyone stunned.
Russia has conscripted 5 million people.
If another 10 million were recruited, almost all Russian men suitable for military service would be in the army.
This is the rhythm of life.
For those who don’t know, you might think that Russia has a population of one billion.
But this also proves the bearded man's determination from another aspect.
Since the bearded man is so courageous, Roque will not hold back and declares on the spot that he will provide Russia with material assistance equivalent to approximately 500 million rand before the arrival of 1942.
There are now less than two months until the end of the year.
Roosevelt was also generous, saying that the United States would provide aid of the same value to Russia, but did not set a time limit.
Compared with southern Africa, there is still a gap in the transportation capabilities of the United States. After all, the United States has not always focused on foreign trade.
There are so many ships in southern Africa that they are often rented out, including many warships and merchant ships.
When it was the British's turn, Winston said that Britain could only provide Russia with spiritual support.
This means I don’t have any money, but I can help you shout slogans.
The bearded man was very dissatisfied with Winston's lack of money.
Since the Royal Navy is so powerful, Big Beard expressed the hope that the Royal Navy could land in Europe and open up a second battlefield to reduce the pressure on Russia.
At this time, the advantage of keeping Rommel away from fighting came.
Winston rejected the bearded proposal on the grounds that the war in North Africa had not yet ended.
The Royal Navy is indeed powerful.
However, the two Atlantic fleets in southern Africa and the United States are equally powerful.
Even if a second battlefield is opened, it should be based on southern Africa and the United States, which have stronger armies. The United Kingdom can only provide logistical support at most.
To put it bluntly, let southern Africans and Americans die for the British.
Roosevelt and Rock weren't stupid either.
Roosevelt said that even if the United States starts recruiting troops now, it will be at least a year before they are ready to join the war after training.
So Big Beard, Roosevelt, and Winston all looked at Rock.
Southern Africa has accumulated heavy troops around the Mediterranean. Everyone knows this.
Rock just smiled and said nothing.
What’s the matter, it’s already reached this level, is there still a need for moral kidnapping?
Sorry, Southern Africa does not accept any form of moral kidnapping.
"It is winter now. The Southern African army is not used to fighting in European winter. Many of the troops around the Mediterranean do not even have cotton-padded clothes. The weapons and equipment installed by the troops have not considered the possibility of fighting in cold areas. Engines
It’s hard to say whether it can be started in severe cold weather.” Rock gave a lot of reasons.
Winston and Roosevelt both sneered.
No winter clothes?
The federal government of Southern Africa has the ability to provide winter clothing to Russia, but it does not have the ability to distribute cotton-padded clothes to the Southern African army. It is just telling lies with open eyes, just like who does not know that Southern Africa has the largest textile company in the world.
As for the weapons and equipment in southern Africa that have not been considered for fighting in cold zones, this is also nonsense. If they really have not been considered, what about the weapons that are supported by the Russians?
Unlike Winston and Roosevelt, the bearded man was very happy with Rock's attitude.
Roque's remarks fully demonstrate that Southern Africa has never considered the possibility of fighting the Russian army.
This is also a fact. One is an Arctic country and the other is a southern hemisphere country. Rock would be crazy to attack Russia. Provide you with the fastest updates and free reading.:.
