Soviet Union 1991

First update

The temporary withdrawal plan of the German Democratic Republic Army caught the Federal Armed Forces off guard. Defense Minister Scharping even confirmed three times with the front line whether the intelligence was true. When he heard the impatient answer from Henry, the commander of the Berlin Campaign, for the third time, Scharping finally collapsed on the sofa with a sigh of relief, as if the boulder that was pressing on his chest had finally been removed.

The German Democratic Republic Army's withdrawal at this time meant that they were on the verge of success. In the last battle to capture Berlin, the East German Renaissance Party lost, and lost miserably. And the domino effect triggered afterwards will be huge. The Federal Armed Forces can fully attack Schwerin and Dresden under the cover of the Second Armored Cavalry Regiment of the United States. As long as Berlin is defended, the Federal Armed Forces will be the final winner.

So Defense Minister Scharping immediately called Chancellor Kohl to report the good news to him. When Kohl answered the phone, he couldn't believe his ears and repeatedly confirmed the news with Minister Scharping.

"You mean the other side voluntarily withdrew? Is this news true? Why did they voluntarily withdraw? Has it been confirmed?" Cole asked four questions in one breath.

Cole was so excited that he couldn't even hold the microphone steadily. This was definitely good news for the German Federal Republic Army. Because it was equivalent to them controlling Berlin before the Americans intervened. Moreover, the Federal Armed Forces had almost exhausted the last of the Berlin defenders. If the United States delayed its entry for a few days, or the Democratic Republican Army accelerated the pace of the attack, history would likely be rewritten.

"Yes, it has been confirmed by the front line. The Eastern and Southern Fronts have begun to withdraw troops, and they have withdrawn to the suburbs of Berlin. Now we have the initiative in Berlin again. They did not capture it." Minister Scharping said, "I think they are likely to negotiate next, and we'd better seize the initiative in one go. In this way, the German Democratic Republic Army will be at a passive disadvantage."

Now Cole has to consider another issue, who will initiate the peace talks first. The Federal Armed Forces have also accumulated a certain amount of strength and heritage, and it will be a lose-lose outcome if they continue to fight.

In order to take the initiative in the negotiations and to intimidate the opponent, Kohl decided to pursue the victory.

"Push the troops forward and make a continuous offensive posture. At the same time, we also put political pressure on the East German troops to come to the negotiation table to discuss the problem with us. At least we must make a gesture of attacking Zossen, Bernau, and even Selo. Let these guys feel what fear is."

Of course, Kohl did not dare to let the Federal Armed Forces really attack the Democratic Republican Army, for fear that it might cause a series of counterattacks at that time. This would be more costly than gain.

"Yes." The Ministry of Defense naturally knew what Kohl wanted to do. They only needed to cooperate with the ideas of the top leaders. Pretend to attack. Slightly mobilize the armored forces to the suburbs of Berlin to prepare for a feint attack.

The next day, Kohl announced this important news at a press conference, claiming that the Federal Armed Forces had controlled the situation in Berlin and the East German rebels' plan to counterattack Berlin had failed. At the same time, he also announced the Federal Armed Forces' plan to counterattack East Germany with the assistance of the Second Armored Cavalry Regiment of the United States.

"We hope that both sides can solve the problem at the negotiation table, so that unnecessary losses can be avoided. We should also call on all East Germans to stand up and work for peace between the two Germanys, rather than using violence and war to threaten the government to achieve the ulterior motives of a small number of people. Foreign Arabs should not be discriminated against, which is a fascist atrocity." Kohl packaged himself as an ambassador for maintaining peace, of course, on the premise that he did not care about the losses and damages suffered by East Germany due to refugee issues and treatment issues.

Colonel Jonishkis sat in front of the TV, smoking one cigarette after another, and the ashtray in front of him was full of cigarette butts. Especially when he saw the smug Chancellor Kohl on TV, he couldn't suppress his anger in his heart.

This ruler who had harmed East Germany now faced the camera with peace of mind and said such words shamelessly, which made him feel angry. The shameless face of the politician made him more determined to liberate East Germany.

Germany belongs to the German people. Any religion that dares to challenge German authority will have their beliefs crushed by the tracks, no matter if you are the holy caliph or the great sultan. Germany believes in only the conquest of iron and blood.

When Zander walked into Colonel Jonishkis' office, the first thing he saw was Jonishkis, who was deeply sunken in the sofa and in a daze in this dark room. The fluorescent light of the TV reflected his face, expressionless.

Zander delivered the telegram to Colonel Jonishkis and said slowly, "This is the request for peace talks proposed by the federal government. The specific location is set at the Parliament Building and the date is the day after tomorrow."

Colonel Jonishkis picked up the telegram and glanced at it, his face turned ugly. There are several requirements in it that he cannot agree to. Including the dissolution of the German Democratic Republic Army and the East German Democratic Renaissance Party, prohibiting the establishment of any party in East Germany, and declaring demonstrations illegal. The East German people have no say in the issue of accepting refugees, let alone direct attacks on religion.

Every piece of content in it was challenging Colonel Jonishkis' bottom line. He took a deep breath and calmed down. The most important thing now was to negotiate, not to tear each other apart on the spot.

"We agree to their negotiation request. The time and place are fine. But the specific details need further discussion. Tell the guys in the federal government that we have worked so hard for so long that we can't just give in to the other side."

Jonishkis appropriately showed a little toughness so that the other side would not doubt his motives.

"Okay, oh, Colonel Jonishkis, this is a four-nation negotiation meeting, and representatives from the United States and the Soviet Union will be present at the same time." Zander reminded the other party.

"I know." Jonishkis said indifferently. Anyway, the Soviet side has already discussed it, and the initiative to turn the tide of the war is ultimately in the hands of East Germany.

Now the only thing he has to do is to be patient, and be patient again.

The Soviet deployment has not been completed, so now he can only be patient, and wait until the final counterattack begins, and catch everyone off guard.

Once the deployment is completed, he will let the other side know what is the steel army that crushes the will, and what is the armored torrent of West Germany that pushes Europe flat. (To be continued.)
