Chapter 152: Diplomacy Around Poland

Just when Stalin was already interested in Poland and began to hold meetings and discussions with his senior staff, German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop unexpectedly came to Moscow and rushed to the Kremlin to visit Stalin.

As the current foreign minister of the Third Reich, Ribbentrop has won Reinhard's trust in foreign affairs. Therefore, when he came to the Soviet Union this time, he was similar to bringing Reinhard's Sword of Shangfang with him.

The right to sign treaties directly with the Soviet Union.

Regarding Ribbentrop, Reinhard actually never thought about re-employing him at first. In his opinion, Ribbentrop was just relying on his relationship with Anneliese Henkel, the daughter of the German champagne manufacturing king Heinkel.

Only when Kerr got married did he have the opportunity to enter the upper class. To put it bluntly, it was because of his father-in-law’s background that he had the opportunity to live a romantic life.

As a time-traveler who was once suppressed by the rich second generation, what Reinhard looked down upon the most in his life was people who relied on their background and backstage. In his view, truly capable people should rely on their own hard work and hard work.

Opportunities, just like myself.

And every time he thinks about how he managed to get through life and death by tying his head to his waist after traveling through time, and was frightened and went through life and death, but there are other people who can easily and safely reach the top of their lives after marrying a wife. This makes Reinhardt

I can't help but be envious, and when envy reaches the extreme, it turns into jealousy.

However, when Reinhardt later met Ribbentrop for the first time, his view changed.

In Reinhardt's words, Ribbentrop is one of the rare visionaries in Germany today. He can always understand his true thoughts and purposes in diplomacy.

Five years ago, when Ribbentrop met Reinhardt for the first time, he talked about his views on the "Anglo-German Naval Agreement" under Reinhardt's provocation. He believed that this agreement

Not only did it not restrict the development of the German navy, it actually created favorable conditions for Germany to expand its navy.

His ideas coincided with Reinhardt's, or in other words, his vision was far ahead of most people of the same era.

Later, Ribbentrop followed Reinhardt in the negotiation and signing of the German-Italian "Anti-Soviet Pact".

Two years ago, when Reinhard decided to put the issue of the annexation of Austria on the agenda, Ribbentrop, who was already serving in the German Foreign Ministry, firmly supported Reinhard's decision and opposed all opinions.

A private report was made to Reinhardt, analyzing that "Britain will not take action against Austria."

Subsequently, he was ordered to draft an ultimatum to Austria. With the connivance of the appeasement policy of Britain and France, Germany successfully annexed Austria.

Just when everyone was cheering for the Anschluss, and officials were immersed in this unprecedented feat, Ribbentrop was the first official to jump out and strongly advocated turning Czechoslovakia into a German protectorate.

He also promised Reinhardt that he could "keep France out of the situation," and commented on Britain that "as long as you show them that you will never back down, they will give in."

As an authority figure, Ribbentrop's ability to make such a judgment is very rare. Without any reference, the policy suggestions he proposed coincided with the plan of Reinhardt, a time traveler.

!

Such a far-sighted politician naturally became the object of Reinhardt's attention. What's more, this person was good at catering to Reinhardt's instructions. He also joined the Socialist Workers Party early and swore allegiance to Reinhardt.

.As a diplomat, his eloquence of confusing right and wrong was quite appealing to Reinhard.

With such a stinking... like-minded confidant, Reinhardt naturally put aside his prejudices and trusted in using this diplomatic genius who had passed the test of history. If you think about it carefully, it's just like eating soft rice.

Isn't it a kind of ability? Being able to be so shameless and eat soft food with peace of mind, just because of this thick skin, I am a fellow-minded person...

To engage in diplomacy, you need this kind of talent. Not only must you have extraordinary insights, but you must also have a shameless spirit and the ability to tell lies with your eyes open.

The position of Minister of Foreign Affairs is really not something that just anyone can take. The maneuvering, counter-offering, battle of wits, tension, passion, and intensity are as intense as going to a prostitute!

Speaking of which, since Reinhard's time travel, I haven't seen many German officials who are thick-skinned enough to be diplomats. He himself is one, but the position of head of state cannot be separated from him.

Therefore, Ribbentrop, who was able to take on this important task, contacted Molotov, the Soviet People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs, and after getting permission to visit the Soviet Union, he hurriedly took Reinhardt's instructions to "draw the Soviet Union into trouble as soon as possible"

He was busy taking a special plane to fly to the capital of the Soviet Union.

You must know that at this time, the Soviet Union was under special precautions by the British government because of the "Peter the Great Incident" and therefore did not engage in historical cooperation negotiations with Britain and France. For the time being, the only Western "friends" the Soviet Union can find are Germany.

.

In addition, the "friendship" between the Soviet Union and Germany is still relatively harmonious, and Stalin happens to pay more attention to the Polish issue. The target of Ribbentrop's talks this time was determined to be Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union, with a high standard.

"Hello, Mr. Stalin, the great leader of the Soviet Union. It is a great honor for me to meet you." Ribbentrop praised Stalin as usual upon meeting him.

"I'm glad to see you too." Stalin shook his standard beard and said with a smile: "German friends who have come from afar must have something to say to us."

Ribbentrop nodded humbly and said straight to the point with a serious expression: "Yes, according to the information we have received, the Soviet Red Army has recently been gathering troops on a large scale towards the Soviet-Polish border. As you know, Poland and Germany

The relationship between the two countries is now about to lead to a war. The head of state hopes that I can discuss the future action coordination between the Soviet Union and Germany with Soviet friends."

You German newspapers have been the loudest in hyping up the Soviet Union's attack on Poland all day long. Now it seems that we may actually take action, and he came to us to discuss it again. Stalin secretly despised this group of German officials who did not know how to control the domestic media.

, if they had not allowed the domestic media to talk nonsense, the Soviet Union probably would not have mobilized its troops so quickly.

However, Stalin quickly calmed down his mental activities and laughed loudly: "You should know that in addition to Germany, the relationship between the Soviet Union and Poland has not been good. Personally, I can say that I hate this man who once led him.

A country that gave me a huge defeat."

Then, Stalin said in a serious tone: "Poland has occupied too much land that should be ours. Shouldn't the Soviet Union take all this back? I think our German friends will understand our desire to take back the territory."

Yes, in your eyes, all the territory in the world should be yours. Ribbentrop cursed in his heart, but on the surface he still smiled and said: "Of course, we quite understand."
