Four DC-3 transport planes took off from Vladivostok Airport, crossed the entire China, and arrived at Dihua, Xinjiang. At this time, the situation in Dihua, Xinjiang, was very tense. Wang Shengshicai of Xinjiang relied on the power of the Soviets to defeat Opposition forces such as Ma Zhongying's 36th Division controlled most of Xinjiang. However, with the outbreak of the Soviet Union's Patriotic War, the Soviets were overwhelmed and naturally did not have more supplies to support Sheng Shicai.
So the chameleon Sheng Shicai began to tear off the mask of progress step by step, persecute the Communists, and move closer to the National Government. Therefore, when the plane arrived in Xinjiang, the atmosphere was very tense. Xu Rui could even see around the airport from the plane There are many spies from Shengshicai who are constantly looking around.
The pilot did not dare to stay too long after refueling and took off immediately. Finally, he flew away from Dihua without any danger. After several hours of flight, he arrived in Kazan. After getting off the plane, there were several trucks. Waiting at the airport, a colonel who came to pick up Xu Rui said: "Are you Comrade Xu Rui? Comrade Stalin wants to see you."
Xu Rui said: "Comrade Stalin wants to see me? Isn't he in Moscow?"
The colonel's expression dimmed and he said: "Smolensk has been lost, Vasily has been killed in the battle, and all the headquarters guards have been sacrificed. Now the Germans have reached Moscow City and have now occupied three-quarters of Moscow City. Comrade Stalin has withdrawn from Moscow and arrived in Kazan."
Xu Rui was shocked. It had only been a few days, but he didn't expect that the situation on the battlefield of the Soviet Union had deteriorated to such an extent. Even Moscow was about to fall. He couldn't see clearly where the future history would go.
"Okay, I'll go see Comrade Stalin right now." Xu Rui nodded, got into the car that picked him up, and drove towards the distance...
When Xu Rui came to Kazan, Stalin breathed a sigh of relief and finally waited. Although he paid a huge price of five infantry divisions and one artillery division for Xu Rui, but from Xu Rui and Lang Ya during the Soviet-Finnish War Judging from the performance, it's all worth it.
"Comrade Stalin, Comrade Xu Rui is outside. Do you want to see him?" Zhukov said.
"Okay, let Comrade Xu Rui come in." Stalin sat on the chair, put the pipe in his hand, and said in a rich and vicissitudes of voice.
Xu Rui and Diana, who had been waiting at the door, walked into Stalin's office. He was still wearing the new regiment's military uniform. Although it was a bit old, it was cleanly washed.
Xu Rui declined the Soviet Union's offer to put on a brand new Soviet-style military uniform. Xu Rui just wanted Stalin to know that although he was seconded to the Soviet Union, he would always be a Chinese soldier! He could never become a Soviet citizen.
When Stalin saw Xu Rui's attire, he immediately understood Xu Rui's intention. Although he was slightly unhappy, Stalin did not show it. He just smiled and said: "Comrade Xu Rui, welcome to the Soviet Union again."
Xu Rui saluted Stalin and said: "Comrade Stalin, Xu Rui, the leader of the new regiment, reports to you!"
Stalin said directly: "Comrade Xu Rui, not long ago, the German fascists launched a large-scale aggressive war against the great proletarian banner, the Soviet Socialist Republic. The Germans have made rapid progress and have occupied key areas. In Smolensk, Vasily and the headquarters guards all died. Now the Germans have invaded Moscow and occupied three-quarters of the city. The Soviet Socialist Republic is at its most dangerous moment. I need you and Langya's help. help."
"Comrade Stalin, I will do my best to help the Soviet people win this great Patriotic War." Xu Rui replied forcefully.
"Very well, Comrade Xu Rui, I know you and I believe that your ability can turn the tide. I know that you are very good at strategy, so I want to hear your views on this war."
Xu Rui's heart moved. Since Stalin asked about his opinion on the war situation, it seemed that this was an opportunity to prove his ability to Stalin. At least Stalin would not feel that the equipment of his six divisions was in vain. At the same time,
, I should also use this opportunity to strengthen Stalin's confidence in victory.
Thinking of this, Xu Rui said: "Comrade Stalin, in my opinion, this will be a protracted war. Without three to four years, it will be difficult to determine the winner."
"Oh?" Stalin's eyes flashed, he looked at Xu Rui and said, "Keep talking."
"From the current point of view, the Germans have advantages in quality of soldiers and weapons. The Germans are also very efficient in command, bold and innovative in tactics, and relatively well prepared. All of this determines that the Germans will not be able to do it all at once.
Defeated."
"Is there no hope for the Soviet Red Army?" Stalin looked worried after hearing Xu Rui's analysis.
"No, although the Germans have the upper hand now, the Soviet Red Army has hope, and the final victory in this war must belong to the Soviet people." Xu Rui said loudly.
"When Stalin heard what Xu Rui said, his eyes lit up and asked Xu Rui: "Why do you say that?"
In fact, the Germans took complete initiative on the battlefield, and the Soviet Red Army was retreating steadily. Therefore, even Stalin was not very optimistic about the prospects of the Great Patriotic War. After listening to Xu Rui's words, Stalin's heart suddenly ignited.
Got hope.
Xu Rui said unhurriedly: "First of all, although the Germans used blitzkrieg tactics to occupy more than a dozen countries in Europe within a few months, showing their strong strength, however, those were small countries with no strategic depth, so
The Germans succeeded easily.
But the Soviet Union is different. The Soviet Union has the most vast territory in the world, which gives the Soviet Union a vast strategic depth. At the same time, the Soviet Union has a much larger population than Germany and a strong industrial base. All of this determines the Soviet Union's
The national power is very strong, even much stronger than Germany. Although it suffered a temporary defeat, as long as the Soviet people share the same hatred and persevere, then there will definitely be a chance to turn defeat into victory!"
"Germany's soldiers and weapons and equipment have a qualitative advantage, but the Soviet Union has a quantitative advantage. Once the Soviet Union recovers and its war machine is fully activated, it can completely offset the Germans' qualitative advantage. Furthermore,
As the Germans continue to advance, their weaknesses will become more prominent and magnified, which will eventually make them lose the war."
"Oh? The Germans' weakness?" Stalin looked at Xu Rui in confusion.
Xu Rui said: "The Germans' weakness is their logistical supply line. The longer the battle line is, the longer the Germans' logistical supply line will be, and the more difficult it will be to supply. When the Germans' supply line reaches a critical point, their
The advance will be uncontinuable and will naturally stop. At that time, the Red Army, which has recovered and is growing stronger, will launch a counterattack and defeat the Germans bit by bit until it achieves the final victory!"
Hearing this, Stalin's face was full of smiles. He put the pipe to his mouth, took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "Comrade Xu Rui, if the development of the war situation is really as you said, then the Soviet Union is going through
After being baptized by the Great War, it will inevitably become one of the world's leading powers, and the sacrifices of so many Soviet people will not be in vain."
"Yes, after the war, with the rise of the Soviet Union, the entire world socialist camp will grow rapidly, and the Soviet Union will assume more important responsibilities." Xu Rui described a bright future to Stalin.
Stalin was very happy after hearing Xu Rui's words. Xu Rui's words strengthened his confidence in defeating the Germans. Stalin couldn't help but remember that Xu Rui was not the first to say this. Zhukov also said similar words to himself,
However, compared with Zhukov, Xu Rui takes a longer-term view, has clearer ideas, and is more convincing.
"Comrade Xu Rui, you have just arrived in Kazan. You have been tired from traveling and traveling. I should have let you have a good rest. However, the war on the front line is very urgent now. Therefore, you and your Wolf Ya must go to Moscow immediately to assist Comrade Zhukov in his work."
Battle of Moscow."
"Comrade Stalin, Lang Ya and I came to the Soviet Union just to help the Soviet people. Lang Ya and I will leave for Moscow right now."
"Very good, Comrade Xu Rui, then let the Germans have a taste of your power."
"yes!"
Xu Rui left Stalin's office. The conversation with Stalin gave Xu Rui a deeper understanding of Stalin. Although Stalin's character was not very good, it was undeniable that he had a strong heart and was very capable and capable.
With him here, it is estimated that the Soviet Union can hold on for a while.
Coming out of Stalin's office, Xu Rui saw Zhukov walking towards him.
Zhukov's eyes were bloodshot, and he could tell that he hadn't had a good rest for a long time. Seeing Xu Rui, Zhukov forced a smile on his face.
Zhukov said: "Comrade Xu Rui, Moscow is now in extreme danger, three-quarters of the city has been occupied, and the blood of warriors has stained every street red.
We need you and your Wolf Fang now. I will go to Moscow soon to replace Comrade Shaposhnikov, the Chief of General Staff, as the commander-in-chief of the Moscow defense war. My special train will leave for Moscow in the afternoon. I hope you and Wolf
Teeth can walk with me."
Looking at this legendary Soviet general, Xu Rui thought to himself, you will not leave me idle for a moment, but Xu Rui still said: "Comrade Zhukov, I am also preparing to go to Moscow immediately. I am very happy to meet you.
Let’s set off together.”
"Very good, you and the comrades from Langya have a rest first, and we will set off in the afternoon." Zhukov was very moved, and shook Xu Rui's big hands vigorously.
