"Wait for me here?" Zhukov's words confused me, and I asked in amazement: "Didn't General Antonov call me back to Moscow?"

"We are about to formulate a new offensive campaign plan and need your participation. In order not to attract the attention of others, after I discussed with Comrade Stalin, I felt that Comrade Antonov would come forward and call you back to Moscow. The illusion of letting you come back to report on your duties." Zhukov said here, with a sly smile on his face: "Let's go, Lida, everyone is waiting for you."

"Everyone is waiting for me." Zhukov's words made me more confused. I asked inexplicably: "Comrade Marshal, I don't know who is waiting for me?"

"You'll know when you go." Zhukov couldn't help but said that he was about to walk outside while pushing me.

"Wait a minute, Comrade Marshal." Although Zhukov didn't clearly say who was waiting for me, I knew in my heart that among the people I saw later, there must be Stalin and Antonov, so he hurriedly directed at Zhukov. Say: "Please give me a few minutes."

"Give you a few minutes?" Zhukov stared at me and said regretfully: "What are you going to do?"

I smiled at him, and then pointed my face to my face and said, "Comrade Marshal, I took the train from Shepetovka to Moscow for two days. Before I got off the train, I was in a hurry before I could wash my face. I'm here. If I want to meet Comrade Stalin, I need to wash my face first."

After Zhukov looked me up and down, he hehe smiled and said, "Lida, don't you tell me, I really haven't noticed. Your face is covered with flowers. This image will definitely not work to see Comrade Stalin. Go ahead. Come on, wash your face!"

I walked into the bathroom connected to the office, poured cold water on my face, and suddenly became more awake. I stared at myself in a daze in the mirror, wondering to myself: "What happened and why did I suddenly be recalled to Moscow? I am only an acting deputy commander of the front. What kind of offensive campaign plan is formulated by the Supreme Command, I guess. Isn’t it my turn to point fingers?"

When I came out of the bathroom, Zhukov waited a little impatiently. He shook his head at me and said, "Let's go, Lida, don't make Comrade Stalin wait in a hurry."

On the way to Stalin’s office, I wanted to talk from Zhukov, but he walked like flying in the carpeted corridor. I had to run all the way to barely keep up with him, and I didn’t even bother to ask him any questions. .

Stalin’s secretary Boskrebeshev, seeing Zhukov and me coming, quickly got up from his seat and said politely to Zhukov: "Marshal Zhukov, Comrade Stalin has been waiting for you, please come in!" , He pushed open the closed door, and stretched out his hand in a please gesture.

I followed Zhukov and walked into the office. As soon as I entered the door, I habitually looked at Stalin's desk, and saw that he was sitting behind the desk at the moment, smoking and listening to Antonov's report.

Seeing our arrival, Stalin raised his hand and gestured to Antonov to stop reporting, then looked at us with a smile and said: "Lida, when did you arrive in Moscow?"

Seeing Stalin crossed Zhukov and greeted me directly, it made me panic. I stammered and said: "Report to Comrade Stalin, I...I was...I arrived in Moscow an hour ago. Because...I went to the wrong place, so I lost some time."

Stalin nodded, put the pipe in his hand on the ashtray, picked up the telegram on the table, dialed a number, and said to the microphone: "Okay, let them all come in!"

When I saw Stalin's move, my heart became more and more nervous. It seems that there will be many heavyweights appearing later, which makes me more curious about Stalin's true intentions of calling himself back to Moscow.

The door opened again from the outside, and several people walked in one after another. The first one was Voroshilov. He turned his head and talked quietly with Budjoni who was following him as he walked. Behind the two of them was Kalinin on crutches, and Molotov was supporting him next to him. Behind him was the tall Timusin, and a tall and thin man in the uniform of an admiral.

I approached Zhukov and asked in a low voice, "Comrade Marshal, who is the commander in the navy?"

"Kuznetsov," Zhukov replied quietly, "Admiral Nikolai Gerasimovich Kuznetsov, the People’s Commissar of the Navy, who is a member of the Supreme Command."

After listening to Zhukov's introduction, I couldn't help but narrowed my mouth secretly, saying that the navy is really not valued by the army, and the commander-in-chief of the navy, Kuznetsov, is actually just an admiral.

After everyone was seated at the long green conference table, Stalin suddenly called my name: "Comrade Oshanina!"

I heard that he did not call my nickname, but his surname. I knew that he must have something important to say, so I quickly got up from my seat, kept upright, looked at him with my head upright, and waited for him to say The following words.

Stalin continued: "At the Munich Conference on November 30 last year, US President Roosevelt told me personally that the Allied forces would open a second battlefield in northern France in May 1944."

Stalin’s words made me confused. As far as I know, the Normandy landing took place on June 6, 1944. Why did Roosevelt tell Stalin that it was in May? Could it be that my arrival made some important history happen? Offset?

While I was thinking, I only heard Stalin continue to say: "However, three days ago, I received a personal letter from Roosevelt saying that for various reasons, the opening of the second battlefield in northern France would be postponed." He was not far from me. I stopped at the place where I was holding my pipe, pointed at me with my pipe-clamped fist, and asked, "I called you back from Ukraine, just to ask your opinion, will the Allies really open up a second battlefield in France? "

Stalin's words caused doubts among the people sitting around the conference table. I saw many people mastering each other. If Stalin were not here, they would probably whisper to each other to study what is going on. Stalin may be trying to dispel everyone’s hungry doubts and added, “When you and Comrade Molotov went to the United States last year, they participated in the formulation of the Allied plan. Will they open up a second battlefield? There is only you here. Have a say."

After Stalin's words were finished, everyone except Zhukov and Antonov showed a clear expression on their faces. They all focused on me, wanting to hear how I answered.

At this moment, I understand that the reason Stalin recalled me was to reconfirm whether the Allied forces really had the possibility of opening up a second battlefield. Although his actions were suspected of being rushed to the doctor, but I happened to know the answer, and I also knew the exact location where the Allied troops landed.

However, in order to prevent them from suspicion, after Stalin finished speaking, I pretended to ponder for a while, and then slowly said: "Comrade Stalin, I think the reason why the Allied forces have to delay the opening of the second battlefield may be because The landing conditions are still immature. They should open the second battlefield promised to us in the northern part of France in June at the latest."

"Comrade Oshanina," Kalinin, who was sitting across from me, asked as soon as I finished speaking, "I want to know why you can be so sure that the Allied forces will keep their promise and create a second place in the north of France. Where is the battlefield?"

"That's right." Just after Kalinin's words, Voroshilov asked: "They said it was May, but now it's June. Who knows after June, will they Continue to push back."

"It shouldn't be anymore." I said slowly while thinking about the information about the Normandy landing that I had read in later generations: "As far as I know, the Allied Command’s determination of the specific date and time is a complex coordination. The problem is that their various services and arms will put forward different requirements according to their own needs: for example, the army requires landing at high tide to reduce the time for troops to be exposed on the beach; the navy requires landing at low tide to minimize the obstacles encountered by the landing craft. Destruction; the Air Force requires moonlight so that the airborne troops can identify ground targets, etc. If six months pass, there will be no more days to meet this type of landing conditions, so we can only wait next year.

After I said this, seeing the disappointed expressions on everyone's faces to varying degrees, I immediately guessed that they thought there was no possibility for the Allied forces to open a second battlefield this year. He explained with a smile: "Due to the series of great victories our army has achieved in the right bank region of Ukraine, UU reading www.uukanshu.com has made Britain and the United States discover that since we do not open up a second battlefield, the future of Europe will be our rule. However, this is obviously not in the interests of Britain and the United States, so I boldly assert that the Allied forces will definitely open a second battlefield in June."

"I agree with Comrade Oshanina." Admiral Kuznetsov first spoke to me and expressed his support. He swung his head to the left and right, and finally fixed his gaze on Stalin: "As one A navy commander, I know more about landing operations than everyone else. I think the situation that General Oshanina just said is real. The reason why the Allied forces could not implement it in May Landing operations may be due to insufficient preparation or the impact of climatic conditions. June will be their last chance."

After Kuznetsov’s words were finished, Molotov also unexpectedly said: “Some people say that war is a continuation of politics. I think this statement makes a lot of sense. Britain and the United States are fighting for post-war interests in Europe. , It must be ahead of our army to enter these countries and regions. In that case, they will have to open up the promised second battlefield."

After listening to everyone’s speeches, Stalin walked back to his seat and sat down. After gently knocking off the ashes in the pipe on the ashtray, he said unhurriedly: "Since the Allied forces have opened up the second battlefield, it is already There is no doubt, then we should discuss the main direction of the offensive in the summer of 1944."

I heard that I was going to discuss the main direction of the summer offensive campaign. I thought that my level was too low and I was not qualified to be here, so I quickly stood up again and said politely to Stalin: "Comrade Stalin, allow me to leave?"
