Jagged Germany: Chapter 1083 Peace of mind ask for a monthly ticket
"Comrade Voroshilov, is our army ready for war?" Joseph asked. He felt more and more that the war was approaching, which made him very uneasy.
"Comrade Joseph, our army is preparing for war. If your order is issued, we can fight at any time. However, it will take time to store up our war supplies. The mobilization of the reserve forces will also take time." Fu Roshilov said.
Joseph couldn't help but frowned. Such an answer was obviously not what he wanted to hear. But he also knew that Voroshilov was telling the truth. Although Russia's military strength has undergone rapid development over the years, there is still a big gap compared with Germany, the world's number one power. Because of their poor foundation, even if they try to catch up, it will be difficult to catch up.
Now Bu Russia has a standing army of more than 3 million people. But the Russians have enough soldiers. If they are willing, it is not difficult to expand the army to tens of millions. In view of the increasingly tense international situation, especially because Germany has been preparing for war, Joseph had already issued an order earlier to mobilize 3 million troops again, raising the number of Russian troops to 6 million. .
Regarding the national strength of Bu Russia, it is not a problem to mobilize another three million troops. After all, their army only needs to pay a small allowance, unlike other countries, which need to pay high military salaries for the army. However, how to arm the three million is a difficult task. They can't let those troops go to the battlefield with bare hands, can they? In that case, what is the difference between letting them die? During this time, both Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov have been suffering from this.
"Comrade Joseph, our mobilization has begun secretly. However, in order to avoid the Germans' detection, the progress is very slow." Shaposhnikov said.
"At this time, it is true that the Germans can no longer be stimulated. Otherwise, I am afraid it will cause a more violent reaction from the Germans." Joseph said.
In less than an hour, someone reported the border guards' attack on Ukraine to Joseph and others. They just didn't know about it before, but now that they know about it, they can find out everything very easily.
"Bastard! How dare they act so boldly? Don't they know that this will detonate a war? At that time, our country will be put in danger!" Joseph was furious.
Originally, he thought it was a German conspiracy. But I didn't expect that it was because the people below were too bold and reckless. This is clearly to take the initiative to send excuses to the hands of the Germans! If the Germans really use this as an excuse to go to war against Bu Russia, wouldn't they have to passively fight? The consequences will be very serious!
Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov both looked very ugly. Since it was not a German conspiracy, but their subordinates acted without authorization, this undoubtedly shows that the two of them are guilty of negligence! If Joseph wanted to deal with the two of them, this crime alone would be enough to make them lose their current positions.
"Comrade Joseph, I'm sorry, we were negligent!" Voroshilov immediately admitted his mistake.
Shaposhnikov also quickly admitted his mistake. They all knew that if they refused to admit their mistake, Joseph would be annoyed even more. At that time, the two of them will be in bad luck.
No matter what, they are all Joseph's confidantes. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had nothing to do during the purge. Especially Voroshilov, who has served as the People's Commissar of National Defense for almost 20 years, without Joseph's approval, it would be impossible.
"Hmph!" Joseph snorted coldly. What happened this time really scared him enough.
"The border guard commander named Alexander was shot immediately, and his family was sent to Siberia to dig potatoes!" Joseph said coldly. Of course, he will not let go of the culprit that caused this crisis. For a small teacher, if he is killed, he will be killed.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Voroshilov said quickly.
"In addition, the uncle of the company commander who was shot, let him retire!" Joseph continued.
Although the other party may not know about it, there is no doubt that he was implicated this time.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Shaposhnikov also nodded.
"Also, what should we do with the Germans and Ukrainians?" Joseph asked. Execution of a division commander and dismissal of an army commander is nothing to them at all. The most important thing is to satisfy the Germans and Ukrainians! Especially the Germans, if the Germans are dissatisfied and hold on to it, the consequences will be serious.
"Comrade Joseph, we have executed the culprit of this incident, so it can be regarded as an explanation to the Germans?" Voroshilov said.
Joseph shook his head: "The Germans won't be so easy to dismiss. Especially this time we took the initiative to send the handle to them. If they don't make use of it, then the Germans will have their heads caught by the door."
"Comrade Joseph, in order to avoid the Germans taking advantage of the situation, we can lower our stance this time, apologize to the Ukrainians, and give them some compensation. As long as we can survive this crisis, it will be a victory for us. ’ suggested Molotov.
Joseph frowned and asked Buer to bow his head and apologize to Ukraine, which made Joseph feel a little uncomfortable. However, this is undoubtedly a good way to avoid war.
"Comrade Molotov, you should contact the Germans first to see what their requirements are, and then see how to deal with them!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Molotov nodded.
"Comrade Voroshilov, Comrade Shaposhnikov. From now on, our army has entered the highest state of combat readiness. The mobilization of follow-up troops must also be accelerated. If the Germans are determined to fight with us this time If we start a war, we can't be caught off guard by them, we must resist their attack!" Joseph said.
This time, he had to be prepared. If war is unavoidable, then they have no other choice. Joseph believes that although Germany is very powerful, after so many years of construction, Bu Russia is not without the power to fight.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov answered solemnly.
