Rock's plan can indeed meet the needs of Russia and Poland in a short period of time.
But in the long run, the consequences are endless.
"So the question now is how to get the Russians to accept this plan." Roque still has a chance to make amends, and it is impossible for Big Beard to give up the Black Sea outlet.
"If I were a Russian, I would definitely not accept it!" Roosevelt had an opinion. He didn't care about the interests of the Poles at all. Even though Poland was also a member of the Allies, Roosevelt could sacrifice the interests of the Poles without hesitation when necessary. For the United States,
It is said that the more chaos Europe has, the better, and it is best that there is no peace at all.
Although Roque's proposal has hidden dangers, it is the best solution at the moment. Although the interests of the Poles have suffered a certain loss, it is acceptable. Rachikiewicz's requirements are not high. As long as he can return to Poland, he will be satisfied.
.
Roosevelt certainly did not want to see a peaceful Europe, in which case the presence of the United States would be infinitely reduced. The advantages the United States has in this time and space are far less than those in another time and space, so the United States' approach will be more direct.
"Can you try it first and then say -" Winston's only purpose is to keep Russia as far away from the United Kingdom as possible.
When Britain was strong, it could sit back and relax across the English Channel, and no European country could break through the Royal Navy's blockade.
Now the situation has changed, and the air has become a new breakthrough. The Germans first launched the Air Battle of Britain, and now they used rockets to attack London. The threat to Britain is increasing, and the previous experience has become invalid. Winston is now confused.
Rock is not confused.
The Poles may settle old scores, but as long as southern Africa remains strong, the Poles have to accept it honestly.
And the key to the problem is not Rock, but Beard.
No matter how reasonable Roque's suggestion was, it was useless if Big Beard disagreed. It was impossible for Southern Africa to send troops to help Poland recover. Poland's weight was still inferior to that of Free France.
In this way, the situation becomes very clear. No matter how well Rock negotiates with Roosevelt and Winston, Big Beard must agree.
Big Beard is not in a hurry now. Russia has passed the most difficult stage and is less and less dependent on its allies. During this period, Big Beard no longer urges the Allies on the Western Front to seize the time to launch an attack on the German army. This is fully
It shows that Big Beard is now confident of defeating Germany.
The war potential of the Germans is really incomparable to that of Russia. Even if Mustache sends all the men in Germany to the battlefield, it will not be able to fight against Russia. The population is a flaw.
On September 15th, the meeting has been going on for a week, and basically no valuable results have been achieved.
Rock now fully realizes that imperialism is really a paper tiger. Now there are only southern Africa, Britain and the United States, and the differences are so big. If other countries are added, a one-year meeting will not solve any problems.
The key lies in whether the bearded man cooperates.
On September 16, Rock, Winston, and Roosevelt took flights to St. Petersburg respectively.
In September 1941, the German army surrounded St. Petersburg, and a three-year siege broke out. This was the longest battle of World War II and the deadliest siege in human history.
Russia lost 3.5 million people in the siege of St. Petersburg, and the German losses were about one million. After the battle, the entire city was in ruins. Sidney Milner once doubted whether St. Petersburg could host leaders of various countries.
ability.
The Russians are still very tenacious. After Big Beard extended an invitation to Rock, Winston, and Roosevelt, the Russian government recruited 200,000 people to repair St. Petersburg and built a building specifically for Rock, Winston, and Roosevelt.
Three palaces are used for reception work.
The No. 1 palace that Roque stayed in had about 190 rooms. It was a solid zigzag building with standard Russian style and extremely luxurious interior decoration. It was even better than the Palace of Justice in Pretoria. This made Roque both
There is a feeling of crime.
The war is still ongoing, and Russia has lost more than 30 million people. Under such circumstances, Big Beard also mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to repair St. Petersburg. Rock is very sure that Big Beard did it on purpose. He just wanted to impress his allies in this way.
Appreciate Russia's war potential.
"We can't move around at will. The demining work is still in progress. The Russians have completely emptied the city of St. Petersburg. This is terrible. This kind of mobilization capability is unprecedented-" Sidney Milner felt terrible. The Russians are terrible.
.
The so-called "demining work" is not necessarily true. The Russians do not want southern Africans to act at will, so they take strict precautions.
Landmines are only one aspect. When Rock checked into Palace No. 1, each entourage received an identification certificate. This certificate can only be used around Palace No. 1. The Secret Service of the Palace of Justice is responsible for the internal security of Palace No. 1.
There are also three blockades set up by Russian military police on the outside, with an average checkpoint every 25 meters.
"There is no need to doubt that now is the most powerful moment for the Russians." Roque is not surprised. This is where they are. In terms of mobilization ability, the Russians are really not good at it.
Of course, this also depends on who you are comparing with.
Compared with the British, the Russians' mobilization ability is truly amazing.
Compared with Southern Africa, that's all. The mobilization capabilities of the Southern African federal government are also terrifying.
"Do you think the Russians will take this opportunity to kill us all?" Sidney Milner was very imaginative. As long as the bearded man didn't drink too much, he wouldn't do this.
Since the outbreak of the world war, Rock has met with Winston and Roosevelt many times. The only time he met directly with the bearded man was in Tehran. The bearded man was unwilling to leave Russia.
This fully shows that the bearded man lacks a sense of security. Even if his allies fully support Russia, the bearded man is not willing to be in danger.
Rock was not worried, so this time Rock came to St. Petersburg with Winston and Roosevelt.
"If you really have nothing to do, go and see what we're having for dinner." Rock was speechless. Sidney Milner's imagination was too big.
Dinner must be very sumptuous, caviar and borscht are essential. In addition, there are all kinds of fish, boiled, fried and chopped into dumplings. Roque likes dumplings stuffed with fish very much.
, so I ate a few more bites.
"Yesterday afternoon, the Russian army discovered several concentration camps set up by the Germans near Auschwitz, a small town in southern Poland. Now we can confirm that at least one million people were massacred by the Germans there. The specific situation is still being counted.
." Winston came to see Rock after dinner. The palace No. 3 where he stayed was less than 500 meters away from the palace No. 1 where Rock stayed.
Auschwitz——
Rock has never been to this small town, but he is very familiar with the place name. In the future, whenever people mention the atrocities of the German army, Auschwitz will be indispensable.
This was not the first concentration camp discovered by the Allies. Throughout World War II, the German army set up more than 1,200 concentration camps, some in Germany and more in occupied areas.
"One million people - are you sure?" Rock was surprised. In comparison, the Japanese are nothing compared to the Germans.
"Pretty sure, we got a list of Germans. One million is just a rough estimate." Winston looked ugly. Anyone who heard this number would be shocked.
When World War II broke out, how many people were there in Poland?
So what reason do the Poles have to hate the Russians? If the Russians had come a few days later, maybe all the Poles would have been killed.
If you calculate it this way, the Katyn Forest tragedy suddenly becomes insignificant.
"With so many people dying in Poland, does it still need so much land?" Sidney Milner's focus was always different from Rock's.
What Rock is now worried about is that the bearded man will take advantage of the Auschwitz concentration camp to get angry, making the already difficult-to-reconcile contradictions more acute.
"What should I do? Do you want to continue to give in?" Rock is not ready to express his opinion easily now. It depends on how Winston handles it.
"Of course not, we have made enough concessions!" Winston said forcefully, but when he saw the bearded man the next day, Winston immediately became polite and polite.
"Since the outbreak of the war, we have lost 30 million people. This is a price we cannot bear. The blood debt must be paid with blood!" The bearded man was decisive as soon as he came up and bluntly said that he would make the Germans pay the same price.
This is basically impossible. Germany now has a total of 65 million people, and 30 million is almost half of it. It is simply unimaginable to pay for the debt with blood.
Of course, this is not too much. If the German army is attacked in the occupied areas, they will randomly arrest Russians from around the attack point to retaliate. If one German dies, then ten Russians will be killed.
At this rate, each German would die five times on average.
"We are in favor of making the Germans pay the price, but this is wrong." Winston tried to persuade.
"Haven't you guys done this before?" The bearded man sneered, brother, don't laugh at the second brother.
During the Second Boer War, if the British army was attacked, all southern Africans within 70 kilometers of the attack point would be thrown into prison——
Oh, it's not a prison, it's actually a concentration camp. The concept of "concentration camp" was created by the British.
Neither Rock nor Roosevelt spoke, and both felt a little heavy. The bearded man was not a threat, he was really determined to do this.
Otherwise, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. Now, compared with the retaliatory action, the Black Sea outlet is nothing.
For Big Beard, the easiest solution is to kill all the Ottomans, or exile them to Siberia to grow potatoes. In that case, the Black Sea outlet will naturally belong to Russia.
"We must make war criminals pay the price, but we must not hurt innocent people." Roque also had double standards. When the Southern African military fought in East Asia, it never cared about whether innocent people were hurt.
No one is innocent either.
"Lord Nyasaland, the southern African federal government's attitude towards Africans is equally cruel -" the bearded man smiled half-heartedly.
Rock's inner alarm suddenly started ringing.
Big Beard's words seem to have something else in mind.
The reason why Winston is worried about the Russian threat is that the Russian model is very inflammatory. If the British working class imitates the Russians and starts a revolution, the British aristocracy will be in trouble.
After the Russian Revolution, Nicholas II and his family were executed in the crypt.
Farther away in France, King Louis was also executed after the Revolution.
Further away in England, Charles I was also executed in the English Civil War.
That's why Winston regards Russia as a hostile enemy.
The same goes for Roque and the Southern African Federal Government.
Southern Africa is a country built on ruins. Ten years before the founding of the country, Southern Africa did not admit that there were Africans in the country. Later, a large number of Chinese laborers were introduced, and it gradually got rid of its dependence on African labor.
Africans are very obedient now. They work harder and get less, and they work hard without complaining.
If Beard implements the Russian model in Africa, there will really be a market for it.
The bearded man was not stupid. When he saw Roque's face turn cold, he immediately burst into laughter: "I'm just joking, don't mind-"
joke!
Your joke is not funny to him either!
"Within a month, we will definitely invade Germany. At that time, we will hold a public trial on Mustache and hang him on the Brandenburg Gate. So you have to speed up, otherwise you will be absent from Mustache.
"The trial -" Big Beard is so confident that he really doesn't care how much support he can get from southern Africa and the United States now.
Not to mention the UK. The little support the UK provides every month is not even enough to fill the gap between the teeth.
"We are stepping up our actions. Not long ago, we just recaptured Paris. This was a major victory. The Germans were at the end of their rope." Roosevelt spoke boldly. Does the recapture of Paris have anything to do with the US military?
"Lord Nyasaland, when will you send all your troops to Europe?" The bearded man named them one by one. He is a landlord and has no sense of friendship.
Patton often complained that Britain was misusing British and Indian troops and seriously holding back the Allies.
In fact, the same is true in southern Africa.
Southern Africa has sent more than 3 million expeditionary troops to Europe, of which the actual Southern African army is only a little over 1 million, and the rest are Southern African Union troops.
Regardless of the frequent successes reported by the Southern African army in the European and Asian battlefields, in fact only those few troops have come and gone, and more troops are still in southern Africa and have not come to Europe at all.
"We don't need to send all our troops to deal with the Germans. We are still fighting in Asia and Japan, so we must reserve a part of our reserves." Roque said forcefully.
The two-front war pressure in southern Africa is still very high, not only in Europe, but also in Asia, which is the main battlefield.
Russia has been at war with Germany for three years, but still maintains a tacit understanding of "mutual non-aggression" with Japan. Roark doesn't care much about when Russia launches a war against Japan. It is best not to launch it at all, so that Roark can pass at any time.
This point is hard to argue with the bearded man.
"Well, if you move slower, my children will conquer Berlin!" The bearded man doesn't get entangled, the key is to rationalize the loss.
As for the capture of Berlin, that is still early.
