Age of Conquest Reborn

At the meeting of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Beria, who knew that he had no way to survive, made a desperate move and prepared to sneak out and call his trusted troops to stage a desperate coup. He had no way to survive, so he might as well take the risk.

Maybe he was saved from a desperate situation, but Stalin stopped him and saw through his intentions.

The other members of the Politburo were all extremely indignant at this guy's despicable behavior of always seeking credit and favour, but shrinking back when encountering difficulties, but that was all. What they despised was Beria's personality. However, some

Several very experienced members of the Politburo with rich experience in political struggle, through Beria's unusual behavior and the murderous intention hidden in Comrade Stalin's tone, immediately began to guess that they were similar to Stalin, and couldn't help but feel excited.

Stimulating spirit.

Based on their understanding of Beria, in a desperate situation where death is inevitable, this guy is definitely capable of jumping over the wall. What's more, he has a considerable part of the armed forces in his hands. Suddenly, several sharp eyes like awls were shot at Beria.

Several big holes seemed to be shot out of his body. These looks from his former comrades were enough to make Beria shudder, but what frightened him the most was Stalin's eyes, which were cold, sinister, and like a huge mouth devouring the soul.

What made it difficult for Beria to answer was Stalin's words, "The German army will not attack the Soviet Union within a few years." These words still ring in his ears. No matter how he quibbles, he cannot escape the responsibility of dereliction of duty, and the consequences of this dereliction of duty are,

For the Soviet Union, it was absolutely disastrous.

Seeing that Beria was like an eggplant beaten by frost, completely wilted, and all the energy in his body seemed to have been drained away in an instant, and his face was as ugly as a dead person. Stalin smiled contemptuously, and of course he would not show up to deal with it.

That is not conducive to stability

In the hearts of other Politburo members, even though Beria's popularity had gained a home within the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, if an authoritative official was dismissed in an instant, other members of the Politburo would inevitably feel sad and sad.

kind of feeling.

For himself, it was a little more honorable. After all, he had favored Beria before and was definitely his second confidant, second only to Molotov, the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs. He dealt with Beria on the spot. Wasn't that right?

Prove yourself, don’t you have the vision to recognize people?

But this guy with a bone on the back of his head must not be spared lightly. Germany suddenly attacked the Soviet Union without any precautions. Someone should bear this responsibility, and it couldn't be Stalin himself. How can a great leader make mistakes?

Therefore, no matter from which angle you look at it, Beria has to pay the price with his life. This is a political necessity and he deserves it. Stalin stood up and walked slowly to the shell-like Beria, his cold eyes

In it, there was a little pity and melancholy, and a trace of anger. Even the complicated Stalin himself could not clearly distinguish what kind of mood he was feeling.

"Comrades, Comrade Beria, as the general coordinator of the Soviet intelligence system, has an unshirkable responsibility for the sudden German attack on us. Therefore, I suggest that the Politburo meeting immediately study how to

Deal with Comrade Beria," Stalin's voice was calm and calm.

Monotonous, without any emotion, "My personal opinion is that Comrade Beria should be relieved of all positions he currently holds and handed over to the Internal Investigation Division of the Military Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff for review. Based on the review results, any decision will be made."

If it is handled accordingly, comrades can fully express their opinions!"

Beria was completely finished. The members of the Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union all heard what Stalin meant. This move was cruel and decisive. The Military Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff was Beria's enemy and sworn enemy, the former Lieutenant General.

, fell into the hands of the Cheka in Beria, and his whereabouts are still unknown. However, the members of the Politburo who have seen the Cheka's methods all know his tragic end, and I am afraid that not even a single scumbag is left.

Now, Comrade Stalin has handed Beria into the hands of his old enemy. It is clear that he will not give him any way to survive. What is "examination?" It is just to deal with Beria and find out the reasons that can be brought to the table.

It's just an intelligence error, which is not enough. Everyone believes that Beria will end badly if he falls into the hands of the General Directorate of Military Intelligence. What kind of "lurking German spies" and "class dissidents hiding in the party..."

"The charges will soon be placed on Beria's head.

However, none of the members of the Politburo of the CPSU sympathized with Beria, and no one wanted to come out and defend Beria. On the contrary, there was still some pleasure in relieving hatred. This was the need for political struggle. Since

Comrade Stalin had murderous intentions, and no one had such a big reputation. It is estimated that Comrade Molotov could say a few words, but judging from his expression, it was clear that he was staying out of the matter.

What's more, Beria's usual behavior has long aroused the wrath of heaven and earth. The Politburo members, cronies, family members and subordinates who attended the meeting have all been punished by Beria to a greater or lesser extent. Now,

When it was his turn to be unlucky, it could be said that the law of nature was clear and retribution was unsatisfactory. It was already commendable that he did not add insult to injury and attacked him in groups. It was unnecessary and dangerous to plead for him.

Therefore, as soon as Stalin's response fell, the members of the Politburo expressed their support for the leader's opinions, and soon formed a resolution to review Beria. At this point, when the Soviet Union was in power, Beria was in a state of upheaval and fierce flames.

, both his political life and his personal life have come to an end.

Under the gazes of the members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, who were looking at them with hatred and complexity, the zombie-like Beria, escorted by two tall military officers, walked out of the conference room and announced the plan for a bloody suppression of counterrevolutionaries throughout the Soviet Union.

The perpetrators and implementers have since disappeared from everyone’s sight.

The most gratifying thing is that the Chief of the Soviet General Staff, Marshal Petroshilov, has finally cleared away the cloud that was weighing on the General Staff. More importantly, Beria is in his own hands and he can

Marshal Petroshilov, who was so immersed in ecstasy and revenge that he had avenged the countless old subordinates who had been killed in the name of suppressing counter-revolutionaries, had even forgotten Comrade Stalin's attitude towards him just now.

Dealing with Beria was just an episode at the Politburo meeting of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The meeting immediately returned to the main topic. Stalin's face had completely regained his composure, and that majestic leadership temperament appeared again in this strongman.

Stalin looked at everyone and said: "I still want to criticize the work of the General Staff. Although this is due to Comrade Beria's dereliction of duty, Comrade Petroshilov, as Chief of the General Staff,

There is also an unshirkable responsibility. Well, now is not the time to hold people responsible, but to study how to deal with the major event of the German invasion!"

Marshal Petroshilov breathed a long sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Comrade Stalin let him go so lightly. The war was a matter within the General Staff Department. It was impossible for him not to speak first. He stood

He stood up and said: "Comrade Stalin, fellow comrades, don't

To be honest, the situation we are facing now is very severe and dangerous. In the western border area, our troops are very few, and most of them are second-line troops. Facing the fierce German attack, we are unable to organize effective resistance.

Unexpected!"

“Therefore, my opinion is, first, issue an order immediately to transfer all the troops fighting in the east, including Zhukov’s Far Eastern Front troops, to the western battlefield as quickly as possible, and second, order the military districts on the western border to

Immediately issue an order to the subordinate troops to abandon the border area and fight the German army. Each unit will retreat an average of three hundred kilometers, and then rely on the favorable terrain to organize a defense line."

"The purpose of this is to prevent the troops that can be mobilized at the moment from being consumed prematurely in the face of the superior German attack, and to gain the longest time for our main forces in the east to return reinforcements. The General Staff will give more consideration to the west

The troops of various military districts on the border must block the German troops from advancing deeper into our territory for at least a month."

"Another important point is to immediately mobilize all the reserve forces that can be mobilized at present, as well as the students from military academies across the Soviet Union, organize them into field forces, and organize the first wave of troops behind the defense lines of various military districts on the western border at a distance of about one hundred kilometers.

The second blocking line, in this way, can block the momentum of the German advance and hold on to the troops returning to the Eastern battlefield for reinforcements. These are my opinions. Please consider it, Comrade Stalin and all comrades!"

Marshal Petroshilov's opinions are clearly stated and dealt with appropriately. They show the extremely high military quality of a veteran soldier. They are also the only effective way at present. Only by blocking the German offensive momentum can we sustain the momentum.

To return reinforcements to the main forces on the Eastern battlefield, in other words, to use the Soviet defense reserve forces to create a time conducive to the mobilization of Soviet troops.

Stalin was obviously very satisfied with Marshal Petroshilov's opinion and responded appropriately and methodically, "Comrades, Comrade Petroshilov has already come up with a way to deal with the war situation. I think there is no need to discuss it. In general,

The General Staff began to continue military mobilization, and another

Outside, immediately give orders to the Far East Front, Outer Mongolia Front, Outer Hinggan Mountains Front, and Lake Baikal Front on the eastern battlefield to immediately return to the western region." Stalin made the final decision, and the opinion of the General Staff became the decision of the Politburo meeting.

resolution.

Obviously, Stalin still had more to say, "Currently, our biggest enemy is not the Japanese Kwantung Army, or even the Chinese Tang Qiuli's troops, but the menacing German army. Therefore, we must fight with the strongest

troops to stop the German army from continuing to advance deeper into our territory. As for the war on the eastern battlefield, it has become a secondary direction. Each of the four front armies can leave one group army unit, and the main force will rush to support the western battlefield!"
