Chapter 186 The League of Nations is in action

The League of Nations, referred to as the League of Nations, is an international organization formed under the initiative of the victorious Allied Powers after the signing of the Treaty of Versailles.

This seemingly huge multinational alliance was established on a humiliating day in German history, which was the day when the Treaty of Versailles officially came into effect on January 10, 1920. The first part of the Treaty of Versailles was even included in the

The Covenant of the League of Nations.

At that time, not to mention that Reinhard had not traveled through time, even if he had traveled through time, it would not have changed the emergence of this alliance. In this international alliance, which was officially established under the auspices of US President Wilson, all those who declared war on the Axis Powers during the war

Countries and newly established countries are its founding members. It would be crazy to say that the Germans would willingly accept such an alliance management.

Fortunately, President Wilson failed in his struggle for leadership with Britain and France, which resulted in the United States not joining the League of Nations. As a result, the U.S. Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles and the Covenant of the League of Nations, and vetoed joining the League of Nations.

Of course, the above measures by the United States also reduced the role of the Treaty of Versailles, which really helped Germany.

So far, among the five permanent members of the League of Nations, namely the United States, Britain, France, Italy and Japan, the United States withdrew early, and Japan and Italy withdrew in 1933 and 1937. Historically, they should have joined the League of Nations in 1926.

Germany, because of Reinhardt's obstruction, had no connection with the League of Nations from beginning to end.

As a result, the so-called League of Nations is now nothing more than a tool for the two permanent members of the Security Council, Britain and France, to realize their own interests. There is no fairness at all.

At this moment, the League of Nations under the control of Britain and France took new actions.

"Our League of Nations should never bow to force! Every member of the League of Nations should unite under the flags of Britain and France to defend the glory and freedom of the League of Nations..." A British representative was standing

Talk eloquently at the podium.

"However, when we need unity the most, one of our member states still bullies the weak and invades another ally. This is never allowed!" The British representative first squinted his eyes and looked around.

, and then sternly said: "The Soviet Union, the country we originally planned to elect as a new permanent member of the League of Nations, was actually the culprit of the invasion of Poland."

The British representative with fluffy blond hair looked righteous and said: "I don't know what mentality the Soviet Union, a member of the League of Nations, had in provoking a war with another member state. I only know that the act itself

, is already an extreme contempt and pollution to our League of Nations! Such a black sheep will never be allowed to exist within our League of Nations!"

As soon as the British representative finished his speech, the French representatives immediately echoed: "Yes, the French representative here proposes to permanently expel the Soviet Union from our League of Nations!"

"Reconsideration!" the British representative agreed with understanding.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this was a move by Britain and France to squeeze out the behemoth Soviet Union in the League of Nations and further safeguard their dominant position.

The representatives of Britain and France obviously knew all this. However, they never mentioned the distribution of rights and only pointed the finger at the Soviet Union's mistakes.

But in fact, as long as we take advantage of the opportunity and expel the Soviet Union, the only big country left in the League of Nations that can compete with Britain and France, then the leadership of the League of Nations will be firmly in the hands of Britain and France.

The League of Nations was originally an international organization promoted by Britain and France in order to realize their own national interests. In this organization, Britain and France could not allow the existence of a behemoth like the Soviet Union whose ideology was completely opposed to them. They had long wanted to expel the Soviet Union from the League of Nations.

All that is missing is a reason.

Now, the Soviet Union gave them this reason!

...........

If you want to use an example to trust the ants on the hot pot, then Khrushchev and Yezhov at this time are perfect.

The two front armies of Kovalev and Timoshenko fought for more than 20 days, but they still stayed around the border. In order to urge the two generals to go all out, Stalin decided to send two political leaders, Khrushchev and Yezhov.

Confidants, to strengthen the political and ideological awareness of the Soviet troops on the front line, with the intention of motivating the troops to fight more bravely.

Unfortunately, it backfired. The two political experts, Khrushchev and Yezhov, gave blind instructions as soon as they arrived at the front line, forcing Generals Timoshenko and Kovalev to pile up many troops who were short of ammunition.

On the front line, it was hoped that the soldiers would use human sea tactics to overwhelm the Polish defense line.

It's not enough for Kovalev and Timoshenko to disobey. If they dare to say no more, they may immediately be labeled as timid. In this way, the fault of the unfavorable attack some time ago may be eliminated.

The two politicians took advantage of it and blamed it on them.

Well, since we can't open up the situation anyway, it's better to just shut up and let Khrushchev and the others mess around. After all, they won't be held responsible for their failure.

As a result, thousands of Soviet troops, in accordance with the provisions of the Polish army's training manual, led by a group of incompetent grassroots commanders, clumsily attacked the fortifications built by the Polish army again and again.

In two days, the Soviet naval force, which was advancing across the board, had lost more than 30,000 soldiers, but it still failed to open up the situation.

Although the efficiency was low, the Soviet army still inflicted considerable losses on the Polish army with a high casualty ratio. Over time, after leaving tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of corpses, it would be impossible to penetrate the Polish defense line without reserves.

It's not impossible.

But the problem is that Stalin just received this morning a report from the League of Nations expelling the Soviet Union because of the Soviet invasion of Poland. Stalin was furious and ordered Khrushchev and Yezhov to tell the two generals that they must do it within three days.

Take Warsaw within a day to enhance the Soviet Union’s national prestige!

There is a reason why the order was to capture Warsaw instead of breaking through the defense line. It was not that Stalin was overjoyed with his success and blindly set military goals, but that Khrushchev and Yezhov were trying to cover up their incompetence by setting up military targets a day ago.

They deceived Stalin and said that they had helped the Soviet generals to capture all the enemy forces on the Polish border, and that the Soviet army was advancing into the hinterland of Poland.

After receiving the news, Stalin commended the two of them by name at a meeting held in Moscow that day.

Now, according to the reports of Khrushchev and Yezhov, the Soviet army that has annihilated the main force of the Polish army in the east is almost about to advance to the vicinity of Warsaw. Stalin, who is thousands of miles away, will naturally judge based on the reports.

Taking Warsaw in three days is a must.

In the end, the professional military general Timoshenko couldn't help but said: "It will definitely be too late for us to continue the fight. I suggest you reply to the chairman and say that the Polish army has transferred a large number of reinforcements from the western front, and our army needs more

Take some time to exterminate.”

Khrushchev wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shook his head: "No, no! If you make up another lie just to fulfill one lie, there will be big problems sooner or later."

"No!" After all, Timoshenko can be regarded as a famous Soviet general who has been on the battlefield. Although he is much inferior to the German generals, he is also the tallest among the short ones among the current Soviet generals.

.

Timoshenko explained to Khrushchev and Yezhov, who had no clue, the plan he had thought about for a long time: "Using the time gained this time, General Kovalev and I will mobilize all the resources we can.

Fighter planes carried out air raids on Polish positions, and at the same time, during this air raid, we used the railways built by the Germans to transport as much ammunition as possible. After a few days of air raids, the troops with replenished ammunition were mobilized for the charge, and 100% of them were

Can we capture the already shaky Polish defense line!"

After listening to this, Khrushchev and Yezhov immediately saw hope, and quickly said to Timoshenko gratefully, "The general is indeed a famous general of our Soviet Union, the winner of two Red Flag Medals. If we win this battle, we will definitely win under the Chairman's leadership."

Praise the general for his commanding talents!"

Thank God if you don't slander me, Timoshenko thought to himself.
